Lu An Ning had a cold face. He easily pushed away the two women who were picking up the paintings and looked at them both.
In the crowd, Tang Jingyuan's eyes followed her closely. He was Lu Anning's strongest supporter.
Lu Anning sneered: "You two are so bold to deliberately sabotage the exhibition activities."
After seeing who was coming, the two women subconsciously turned around to look at Lu Yunxi behind them. After getting permission, they straightened up and walked towards Lu An Ning.
"I was wondering who it was. You're the one who signed this painting, Lu Anning, right?"
Another woman joined in, shouting louder and louder, "Everyone, come and see! It's her, hanging someone else's work here and passing it off as her own. An orphan, so audacious, she has no business being at this exhibition. Call security and have this woman and her painting thrown out!"
Lu An Ning curled his lips. "I was invited to the exhibition. Who dares to touch me? You two, on the other hand, accused me of passing off someone else's paintings without any evidence. Do you have any proof? I think you two are the ones causing trouble maliciously. You should be the ones to be kicked out."
During the argument, more and more people came to watch the show, and from time to time someone would whisper about something, but Lu Anning turned a deaf ear.
The woman with heavy makeup couldn't convince Lu An Ning for a moment, so she asked for help from the people around her.
The girl was wearing a pink dress and looked like a lady from a wealthy family, but when she looked at Lu An Ning, her eyes were full of contempt. Seeing that her companions couldn't argue with Lu An Ning, she took the initiative to stand up.
"You can't trust what they say. What about me? My father personally organized the exhibition. He's an expert in landscape painting, and I've been learning from him since I was a child. Even I spent several years studying this painting, Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains. This painting is full of vigor and power. Although the brushwork is clumsy, it captures the essence. Without ten years of practice, it's impossible to paint it like this."
The girl looked at Lu Anning confidently. "How could an orphan like you have ten years of painting experience? If not stealing someone else's work, what else could it be? Your behavior has tainted the hearts of those of us who admire Chinese painting. You have no right to participate in my father's activities."
At her command, several security guards surrounded Lu An Ning.
"This woman is maliciously destroying the exhibition. Throw her out with this trash and don't let it offend the guests."
Just as the security guard was about to attack Lu An Ning, Lu An Ning shouted loudly, scaring everyone.
"Just because a painting is good doesn't mean it wasn't drawn by me. Miss, if you can't do something, can't you allow others to do it? Have you ever heard of something called 'talent'?"
Lu Anning's eyes were clear and open, and his every move revealed a unique character and pride, without a trace of guilt. For a moment, the surrounding spectators were also stunned. Both sides had their reasons. For a work to be displayed at the exhibition, there shouldn't be any problems.
However, Lin Guodong's daughter has been influenced by him since she was a child, so she should not be wrong.
Lin Tingting heard the disparagement in Lu Anning's words and stamped her feet in anger: "Just you, you are not worthy of mocking my lack of talent! You are a wild woman who doesn't even have parents, how dare you!"
Lu Anning's face turned completely black. He clenched his fists and, considering the situation, he endured it and didn't lose his temper.
"Ms. Lin, your upbringing isn't much better."
When the two sides were in a stalemate, Lu Yunxi stood out from the crowd and smiled elegantly at everyone.
"I think we should stop arguing here. Since we can't tell the difference, why not let Miss Lin and Miss Lu compete in impromptu creation later? It's impossible to fake something when creating on the spot. If Miss Lu can really paint such a good Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains, she shouldn't be afraid to do it again in public!"
Lin Tingting agreed without hesitation: "Okay! Then let's do as Miss Gu said. Lu Anning, do you dare to compete with me on the spot? If you can beat me with a painting on the spot, even if the painting is your own. Do you dare?"
"What are you going to do if I win?"
"impossible."
"Without a bet, why should I compete with you?" Lu An Ning smiled disdainfully, not taking Lin Tingting seriously at all.
"Let's make a bet! If I lose to you, I will willingly become your disciple and offer you tea to apologize."
Lu An Ning raised his eyebrows slightly, looked at Lin Tingting carefully, and clicked his tongue: "You have poor talent. I don't want to have a stupid apprentice like you to affect my reputation."
"you!"
For a moment, there was a lot of laughter in the crowd. Everyone said that Lu Anning was too arrogant and looked down on others. Some people also said that his style of doing things was exactly the same as that of the Tang family, and there was a bit of the shadow of the Third Master.
"If I lose, you can do whatever you want with me. But what if you're the one who loses?"
"Let it be dealt with as you wish."
Lin Tingting curled her lips: "You said it! If you lose, I want you to take the initiative to divorce the Third Master and leave the Tang family with nothing. Do you dare?"
There was a burst of sighs in the crowd. Who could have thought that Lin Tingting would make such a request.
Lin Tingting said disdainfully, "You have no talent, no virtue, and no family background. You are not qualified to marry the Third Master. You'd better recognize yourself as soon as possible, so as not to humiliate yourself in the circle and bring shame to the Third Master."
As she spoke, she smiled at Tang Jingyuan in the crowd, "Young Master San, you've been bewildered, and everyone can understand. I'll help you get rid of this woman as soon as possible, so you don't have to thank me. When the time comes, if you can continue your relationship with Miss Gu, it will be considered a good deed on my part."
Tang Jingyuan glanced at her calmly and said, "You are sick."
Lin Tingting's smile froze. "Young Master San, I'm thinking about you. You and Miss Gu were already engaged, and if it weren't for this woman trying to find a way in, she wouldn't be in this situation now. I'm doing a good deed, why don't you appreciate it?"
On the side, Lu Yunxi blushed when she was called out, and deliberately pulled Lin Tingting's hand: "Tingting, what are you talking about! The engagement is already invalid, so don't mention it again."
Lu Yunxi's expression made everyone imagine a lot.
Tang Jingyuan slowly walked out of the crowd. Lu Yunxi's breath hitched, and the more she thought about it, the more she realized that Tang Jingyuan was so charming that she couldn't take her eyes off him. Everyone thought he was going to walk towards Lu Yunxi, but Tang Jingyuan walked straight past them. In three or five steps, he came to Lu Anning and reached out to embrace her in his arms. His movements were very natural.
The cold voice was filled with confidence and determination: "You are doomed to lose."
