"The children all drew apples very well,"
The teaching assistant clapped his hands and said, "Next, we'll test your figure drawing skills. Look carefully at the model and draw a portrait."
Compared to still life, figures are much more difficult, and both parents and children were on edge.
Little chubby Yu Yang was even more serious. He took out a small ruler from his toolbox and measured the model again and again. He first determined the top and bottom points, then drew the center line, cross lines, and outer frame lines, and only then did he outline the contours and determine the facial features.
He was extremely meticulous with every stroke, drawing each strand of hair one by one, and he was the slowest to draw in the entire room.
By the time he finished drawing, the other children had already finished.
"Parents, please wait a moment while I go and ask Ms. Wu if she has arrived yet."
The teaching assistant said something.
The parents immediately swarmed around the drawing board, looking at their own children's crooked lines and then at Yu Yang's drawing that looked like it had been printed out. They all shook their heads and sighed.
"It's just like what those middle school students draw! They must have studied with a professional teacher!"
"Sigh, our kid's just here to make up the numbers, the spot is definitely going to Yu Yang!"
"They've already won first prize in the 'Golden Child Star Cup,' what do we have to compete with them?"
Yu Yang's mother hugged her son, beaming from ear to ear.
At this moment, Zhou Qiqi walked to Zhouzhou's side.
Zhouzhou turned her head, her eyes curving into crescents, and mouthed to her, "Is it pretty?"
When Zhou Qiqi saw Zhouzhou's painting, she was stunned for a moment, then pinched her little cheek and praised her.
"Beautiful! In Auntie's eyes, Zhouzhou's drawing is the best, definitely number one!"
The aunt and nephew were chatting animatedly and didn't notice Yu Yang's mother swaying her waist as she came closer.
She was holding back her anger, and now that she finally had the chance, she pushed through the crowd and spoke up.
"You can't even hold a pen properly, yet you want to be number one? You've got quite the nerve!"
She still holds a grudge because Zhou Qiqi made her apologize in front of all the parents, causing her to lose face.
Moreover, everyone had gathered around to flatter her, but Zhou Qiqi was nowhere to be seen.
And now, they even dare to say that her child is number one. How could Yu Yang's mother swallow this insult?
She pushed through the crowd, strode up to the two of them, and without saying a word, suddenly turned Zhouzhou's drawing board in front of everyone.
"I'd like to see what kind of paintings your kid can produce!"
