Chapter 108



It was a happy thing that Lin Ying and Zhang Qingyu could pass away without any worries, but Shi Xi just felt a little reluctant.

But what is more troublesome now is the huge amount of resentment condensed in Teacher Zhuang. Shi Xi and Senior Brother Qing Xuan tried many ways, but they failed to dispel the resentment in him.

Teacher Zhuang himself was very optimistic and kept reporting the box office of "The Phantom" and "The Sword Shining in the Frost" to Shi Xi. The box office of "The Sword Shining in the Frost" has been leading by a large margin. Three days after its release, "The Phantom" surpassed the sci-fi movie due to its rising reputation and ranked third.

The two movies were on the hot searches in different ways every day, and Shi Xi gained a large number of fans.

Since she suddenly realized the "heavenly punishment", Shi Xi's perception of emotions has become very sharp. When she reads the comments online, she seems to be able to feel the other person's true emotions through the screen. This reminds her of the hug she had with everyone after killing the Ghost King. At that time, she also felt everyone's emotions.

"Could it be that I have acquired the same ability as Teacher Zhuang?" Shi Xi spread out his palms, recalling the fleeting feeling of "relief" from Lin Ying and Zhang Qingyu at that time.

After a moment, two faint white lights emerged from the palm of his hand.

"Teacher Zhuang!" Shi Xi called out, and Zhuang Mei immediately appeared in front of her: "What's wrong?"

Shi Xi patted Zhuang Mei's forehead, and two rays of white light penetrated into his body, and the blood-red shirt actually became lighter.

Now Shi Xi was certain: "I really have acquired abilities similar to yours. As long as I collect enough positive emotions, I can offset the negative emotions you have collected."

After absorbing the emotion of "relief", Zhuang Mei felt an unprecedented sense of relief. He smiled and said, "Xiao Shi is indeed reliable."

"I'm very reliable," Shi Xi looked into his eyes and said seriously, "So don't sacrifice yourself anymore."

Zhuang Mei was stunned: "Okay, I promise you."

Shi Xi focused on healing Zhuang Mei and creating "Hua Dan", and consciously reduced his performing arts work.

Shi Xi did not sign a contract with any novel platform, nor did she learn about ways to increase her exposure. She just buried her head in her writing, updating her novel as she finished one chapter. It was all up to fate that she was discovered by readers.

After being serialized till now, I have gained a group of regular readers.

Shi Xi is ready to remain unknown until the end. San Chi Qing has no requirements on her and only hopes that she enjoys writing. He let her inherit 100% of her creative talent early on, so for her, enjoying writing is the first priority.

What Shi Xi didn't expect was that something happened in mid-February that unexpectedly broke the status quo -

A reader named "Qian Qian Gao Neng" discovered that the short-lived talented actress Lin Ying was likely the prototype of the heroine in "Hua Dan". As we all know, Lin Ying became popular again because she was the prototype of "Shadow" created by the great painter Xi Guang.

After discovering this, "High Energy Ahead" was overjoyed and combined the three to create a very beautiful handwriting video, which was released on major platforms.

It happened to be the opening of Xi Guangguang’s solo online painting exhibition. Because of its extraordinary visual effects, Shadow became the most popular painting. The handwritten video of “High Energy Ahead” caught the right time and quickly became popular on the Internet, and at the same time, it also brought popularity to the book Hua Dan.

One day, Shi Xi was updating as usual, and suddenly found that her novel collection had increased from a few thousand to over a hundred thousand. She rubbed her eyes in disbelief, thinking that the data was wrong.

Later, I checked online and saw the handwritten video created by "High Energy Ahead", and then I realized that I was being carried away by my fans again.

No matter how big or small her fans are, they are awesome!

In early March, "Sword Shining in Frost" and "Phantom" were taken off the screen one after another, bringing the Spring Festival box office to a successful conclusion with box office revenues of 4 billion and 1.8 billion respectively.

Thanks to his outstanding performance in these two movies, Shi Xi has become the most watched actor in recent times, with a total number of fans exceeding 30 million.

At the end of March, two important things happened.

First, Shi Xi successfully completed "Huadan". On the day of completion, this novel, which was written from scratch, had a good result of more than 400,000 collections and was spontaneously recommended by book bloggers on major platforms.

[Have you read the super popular novel "Hua Dan" about female protagonists this year? It is said that the prototype of the heroine is the same as the character in "Shadow" by Xi Guang painter, that is, the talented actor and Yue Opera actor Lin Ying. I really love the character of the heroine. She is talented and skillful. Every time she encounters a crisis, she can seize the opportunity to turn the tide. After reading it in one breath, there is only one word: awesome! ]

[After staying up late to finish reading "Hua Dan", I feel that the writing style is very similar to that of the author "I'm Good" who amazed the literary forum before. I boldly guess that these two vests may be the same person? 】

[Be a little bolder, could it be that Xiguang and Congfeng Yuanxing both know Lin Ying? ]

“The total length of Hua Dan is not long, but it contains a lot of information. The author Cong Feng Yuanxing is very good at telling stories, especially good at making daily trivial matters warm and touching. Every character in his works is very vivid.”

"The career storyline of "Hua Dan" is very exciting. The relationship between the heroine and her master, and the friendship between her and her fellow apprentices are also very touching. This novel has both laughter and tears. It is a rare good work and worth reading!"

Sanchiqing sat on the windowsill with the curtains drawn, swinging her legs, and read to Shixi the recommendations of the bloggers on the actresses.

Shi Xi put down his pen and leaned back in his chair: "Very good, I can feel a lot of positive emotions."

Appreciation, like, surprise... these are all good emotions that can help alleviate Teacher Zhuang’s resentment.

"It's so popular right after it was finished. This book will definitely go viral," Sanchi Qing winked at Shi Xi, "Congratulations, Congfeng Yuanxing, you have found your own creative path."

"It's all thanks to Master Sanchiqing's good teaching." Shi Xi turned the pen in his hand and wrote two words in sharp strokes on the notebook - Tianshi.

San Chi Qing took a look and a dimple appeared on her lips: "Is the second book about Xiao Qingyu's story?"

Shi Xi nodded. Qingyu should have had countless possibilities and should have achieved no less than hers, but because he met a piece of trash, he died in his best years.

Shi Xi wanted to write a story for Zhang Qingyu without any regrets.

San Chi Qing jumped off the windowsill and floated behind Shi Xi: "Will the last story of this series be about me?"

"It's you." Shi Xi gave an affirmative answer.

San Chi Qing tilted his head and smiled: "Then I have to accompany you to finish writing the last story."

The second important thing that happened at the end of March was that the charity organization under the name of Crescent Gallery held an auction. Shi Xi received several invitations, one for Xi Guang, one for Taoist Wu You, one for Shi Xi himself, and even one for the novelist Cong Feng Yuanxing.

The invitation letter to Shi Xi himself came from Ruan Shu and Lu Xiu, both of whom are die-hard fans of Xi Guang and naturally would not miss an auction with Xi Guang's works.

Shi Xi thought about it and finally decided to accept Ruan Shu's invitation and go to the auction with her.

In keeping with the principle of keeping a low profile, the two of them did not bring assistants. Ruan Shu drove a low-key car that disappeared as soon as it was thrown into traffic to pick up Shi Xi. They quietly drove into the star-rated hotel where the charity auction was held and entered the auction hall from the underground parking lot.

Shi Xi looked at Ruan Shu, who was wearing a slim black windbreaker and exuded an "expensive" aura: "Are you here to take pictures of Xiguang's paintings this time?"

Ruan Shu took off his sunglasses, revealing his delicate eyebrows and eyes: "Well, the dividends from "Sword Shining in Frost" have arrived."

"Which one do you like?"

"'Abyss' and 'Light'," Ruan Shu frowned, "Lu Xiu will definitely not let them go. This guy is totally obsessed with Xi Guang. If you can't get them, just take some small things and play with them."

"In fact, my favorite is "Shadow". Have you followed Xi Guang's online visual art exhibition? The visual effect of "Shadow" is simply amazing. It amplifies the emotional resonance of the painting tenfold. It's a pity that Xi Guang refused to give it up."

Ruan Shu's eyes sparkled when she talked about her favorite things. "I was recently recommended a novel called Hua Dan, and the prototype of the heroine seems to be Lin Ying. I'm completely obsessed with this novel. If this novel can be adapted into a film or TV series, I will definitely try to act in it."

Ruan Shu walked while praising Xi Guang and Cong Feng Yuanxing. Shi Xi's ears turned red as he listened.

Ruan Shu noticed: "Little boy, your ears are so red."

"..." Shi Xi touched his ear embarrassedly: "The indoor heating is too high."

Ruan Shu will probably never know that these two are Shi Xi's aliases.

The organizer arranged the seats for Shi Xi, Ruan Shu and Lu Xiu together. Although the three big stars were deliberately low-key, they were still very eye-catching when they were together. When the collectors who came to participate in the auction saw them, they almost thought they had mistakenly walked into the film festival awards ceremony.

Shi Xi sat between the two of them. Ruan Shu looked at Lu Xiu through her and said, "Mr. Lu, please go easy on me later."

"It's not me you should worry about, but that person." Lu Xiu raised his chin and motioned her to look at the door.

Many people noticed the movement over there. Shi Xi heard a lot of inhalations and looked over there as well.

It was a white-haired old man in a Zhongshan suit, supported by a young girl in a white dress. Jiang Tong was personally receiving them, and it was clear at a glance that the old man was not a simple person.

Ruan Shu was shocked: "Why would Mr. Jian come..."

Lu Xiu closed the auction brochure and said, "The only thing worth coming to this auction is Xi Guang's paintings. Mr. Jian is a close friend of Teacher Lu Liangcheng, and he must have noticed the rising star in the painting world, Xi Guang."

Ruan Shu said: "Mr. Jian is a world-class collector. If he wants to bid for Xi Guang's paintings, regardless of whether he wins the bid or not, Xi Guang's fame will rise to a higher level."

Lu Xiu smiled and shook his head: “Whatever Mr. Jian likes, he will definitely get it.”

After Mr. Jian sat down, the Xinyue Charity Auction officially began. Everyone was looking forward to the finale of Xi Guang's paintings, and had little interest in the appetizers. It was not until a valuable antique was served that the place really heated up.

Ruan Shu bid for a gemstone necklace and never raised a card again. Lu Xiu also didn't bid.

"The next piece to be auctioned is the finale of this auction, The Abyss by the phenomenal painter Xi Guang. This painting was created by Xi Guang in..."

After the auctioneer said Xiguang's name, the auction hall became restless and everyone was quietly observing Lu Xiu and Mr. Jian.

As everyone knows, Lu Xiu collects three paintings by Xi Guang and is a die-hard fan of Xi Guang. However, Mr. Jian never raised a sign from beginning to end, and his target was obvious.

The paintings were unveiled, and the auctioneer announced the start of bidding. Even collectors who had no interest in Xi Guang's paintings began to get excited. Hey, just to join in the fun! The works that could be favored by two top collectors were definitely extraordinary.

"10 million!" A collector was the first to raise the sign.

"11 million!"

"12 million!"

"20 million!" This collector really wanted to buy this painting, and the real competition started from here.

It was not until the bid reached 30 million that Ruan Shu raised her placard for the first time, which meant that in her mind, the real starting price of the painting was 30 million.

"35 million." Lu Xiu raised the sign slowly.

The auction hall fell silent, and everyone paid attention to the voices of Lu Xiu and Ruan Shu.

"50 million." Ruan Shu raised the sign again without hesitation.

Xi Guang himself, who was caught in the middle: “…” Ah, his worth has increased again.

Just as Lu Xiu was about to raise his sign, a clear voice rang out from the front: “80 million.”

The hand holding the sign was clean and warm. It came from the young girl who accompanied Mr. Jian. Ruan Shu said that the girl was Mr. Jian's granddaughter.

The bid jumped by 30 million, and low cheers were heard in the auction hall.

Lu Xiu did not raise the sign again, and whispered: "Old Jian has taken action, and the outcome is determined."

Ruan Shu also said: "It's over budget."

"Guest No. 1 bids 80 million, 80 million at a time!"

No one interrupted, and as the hammer finally fell, this thrilling auction came to an end, and the item was bought by Mr. Jian at a high price of 80 million.

The last lot is also a work by Xi Guang, from the same series as "Abyss", titled "Light".

There were just as many collectors interested in "Light" as there were in "Abyss", and the competition was even more intense than the previous one. However, after Mr. Jian made his bid, no one was still able to compete with him.

In the end, Mr. Jian bought this set of paintings for 160 million yuan.

Ruan Shu sighed: "Although it is a bit regrettable, it feels good that this set of paintings can be collected by Mr. Jian."

Lu Xiu said, "Yes. The Crescent Gallery still has two paintings donated by Xi Guang, so there will be opportunities in the future. Not to mention, Xi Guang is still young, and he will definitely have more amazing works in the future."

"A young painter, a group of paintings sold for a high price of 160 million, but he was willing to donate all of them," Ruan Shu smiled proudly, "As expected, he is my favorite painter! Xiaoshi, don't you agree?"

“…Yes.” Stop praising me, stop praising me.

Ruan Shu looked at the watch and said, "Why not wait for a day to come and have a meal together?"

Lu Xiu said: "Okay."

Shi Xi said: "Then let's go eat Cantonese food. I know a Cantonese chef who makes the most delicious ginger and scallion chicken."

"Isn't this the chef you met during the recording of 'Evening Canteen'?" Ruan Shu said, "I watched that episode later and cried with envy."

Shi Xi smiled and said, "It was him who kept asking me to bring my friends to try it."

This charity auction was on several trending searches due to Xi Guang's popularity, and the high price paid by Mr. Jian for Xi Guang's paintings caused a sensation.

Shi Xi and the other two also became a hot topic because their raw photos were leaked and their looks were so good——

#Shi Xi Ruan Shu Lu Xiu, the atmosphere of a wealthy family#

In the unretouched photo, the three of them are sitting together, with their shoulders straight, noble temperaments, and one-in-a-million looks.

[These three people can kill everyone with just their looks! ]

[My eyes have been baptized. It feels like a story when they are in the same frame.]

[Why do these three people have such beautiful hands? My hand control blood tank is empty. 】

【Ji Mingxu: Why don’t you take me to play wuwuwu. 】

[Lu Ge must have gone there for Xi Guang. He is simply Xi Guang's single push king! ]

[I haven't been active much lately. I miss you, miss you, miss you. 】

Mystery is the most striking label on Xiguang. Shi Xi looked at the comments online, smiled and turned off the screen.

She attended the auction of her own paintings openly, but no one knew that she was the real protagonist of the auction.
