Chapter 73: Catering to His Interests

The four of them set off on their journey, chatting and laughing. She sat in the back seat holding her brother. Unexpectedly, when they reached the foot of the mountain, they suddenly encountered a speeding truck.

Combined with what Fu Nanhe told her, the driver fled the scene after the accident, but Su Guoyi said that he had caught the man for her and sentenced him to death, so she could rest and recuperate.

She once thought that the Su family was the salvation of her life, but it turned out that her fantasy was too beautiful.

If she wants to investigate this matter, Fu Nanhe is useful and she must make good use of him.

"Li Man, Li Man?"

Seeing her absent-minded look, Zhu Qian shook her. Ke Liman finally came to her senses and pretended to be surprised, "So that's how it is."

"Well! If you want to hear any gossip in the future, just ask me! I will tell you everything I know!"

Zhu Qian smiled and patted Ke Liman on the shoulder. Ke Liman said, "Today is another Chinese painting class. You should first think about how to pass Teacher Yuan's test."

"It's no big deal, I'm just going through the motions." Zhu Qian waved her hand nonchalantly, then said angrily: "Liming is very smart! He chose an easy sports major! With his physical strength, those exercises are much easier than training abroad!"

During his free time in the car yesterday, Ke Liman had already read through Yuan Hongyi's blog and had a general idea of ​​her preferences.

Without any background or connections, people who have studied art know how difficult it is to make a breakthrough, so she has to work harder to create opportunities for herself.

Knowing that Yuan Hongyi liked bright colors the most, she specially wore a light red dress today. As expected, when she entered the classroom, Yuan Hongyi saw her at first sight.

"Good taste. I hope your painting matches your taste."

Because she drew very talentedly yesterday, Yuan Hongyi also got a general idea of ​​her information last night, and then she remembered that Ke Liman was the outstanding student during the interview.

Xu Xiatong also came early as usual. When the bell rang, Yuan Hongyi said solemnly on the stage, "In one month, we will have an international college art competition, and our major has a spot for the duo team competition."

"You should know that this place is very valuable! If you can win the championship, the university can start taking orders and making money!"

Xu Xiatong's eyes lit up. Ke Liman had a blank expression on his face, but he began to plot secretly in his heart.

She knew that being able to take the order Yuan Hongyi mentioned meant being accepted by the bigwigs in the painting world, and one order could earn millions of dollars in a minute.

"Okay, stop discussing. Let's use flowers and birds as the theme for today's class. We will vote to select two students from the works to form a team. The one with the highest number of votes will be the team leader."

Everyone was stunned. They didn't expect that the previous classes were just to provide them with the most adequate preparation. Those students who didn't draw seriously wanted to cry instantly.

“Here’s a requirement: it must be original! You are not allowed to search for reference images on your phone. If I find out, I will pass it!”

The difficulty increased a lot in an instant. Ke Liman remained calm and started creating after just a moment of thought.

Xu Xiatong glanced at Ke Liman and sneered at her serious expression. She had been forced to learn music, chess, calligraphy and painting since she was three years old. She was praised by her teacher as having a great talent for calligraphy when she was in the senior class.

Even if she could enter the competition, what good would it be? She wouldn't win the grand prize.

Yuan Hongyi walked around the classroom twice, shook her head in disappointment, and finally stood between Ke Liman and Xu Xiatong to watch.

Xu Xiatong paints large peony flowers in a unique style, using bright colors without being vulgar. The peonies he paints can convey a solid sense of space.

But it is not flexible enough, is rigid and flat, and has a stale shape.

It was as if there was a template engraved in my mind, which was contrary to the focus of creation mentioned by Yuan Hongyi.

At most it can be considered an excellent template work. Yuan Hongyi sighed and looked at Ke Liman's painting, but surprise suddenly flashed in her eyes.

Ke Liman's lips curled slightly. Yesterday, she saw Yuan Hongyi's updates on a certain blog. She would ship flowers from Nanshi almost every week, and they were basically wisteria flowers.

Caption: When I first met Nanshi, I fell in love with her at first sight.

Wisteria has a lot of petals, so it is very difficult to paint it in detail. It is absolutely impossible to do it without a certain level of skill.

Xu Xiatong was originally very confident in her standard model painting, but was stunned when she accidentally glanced at Ke Liman's painting of wisteria flowers.

That glance was so stunning that it instantly overshadowed her painting.

In competitions, people who perform well are most likely to influence other people's minds. Many students sighed in admiration when they saw the excellent works of Ke Liman and Xu Xiatong.

"The painting skills of these two are like a battle between gods! What can we do about it?"

"Yeah, we're just foils!"

Although Xu Xiatong's mental state was better, she was still a little confused by Ke Liman, which caused her to tremble with her brush at the end, and she failed to draw several magpies well.

Yuan Hongyi was impressed by Ke Li's concentration on painting, and in the end she only added a red-billed lovebird.

According to a post on a certain blog, Yuan Hongyi had a love affair in Nanshi, and she still missed the lover after the breakup.

In addition to the painting skills, the emotional impact is what touches the heart the most.

"I don't need to tell you, the two best paintings are obvious to everyone. Now let's vote together as a class to see who wins first place!"

Yuan Hongyi simply didn't know how to describe her satisfaction with Ke Liman. Although her brushstrokes were a little unfamiliar and needed more practice, it was amazing that a freshman could reach this level!

Zhu Xi just woke up at this time. She felt sleepy since she smelled the scent of ink when she entered the classroom. She wiped her saliva and walked to Ke Liman and exclaimed: "Wow! Liman, your painting is so emotional! How did you paint a sea of ​​flowers in such a short time!"

Then she looked at Xu Xiatong's peonies and shook her head in disgust, "Compared to our Li Man, this is far inferior."

Ke Liman whispered in Zhu Xi's ear, "Don't step on one and hold the other."

Voting started soon. Yuan Hongyi took the box collected by the monitor and wrote the correct word on the blackboard. In the end, she found that the two had the same vote.

Xu Xiatong glanced at Ke Liman with pride. What a joke! Although her painting was indeed more creative than hers this time! But most of the class was on her side! How could she compare with her!

Zhu Qian asked somewhat dissatisfiedly: "Teacher, didn't you say that the person with the most votes will be the captain? How do we decide if there are equal votes?"

Yuan Hongyi naturally knew Xu Xiatong's connections in school. She smiled and said, "Have you forgotten that I still have a vote?"

Xu Xiatong glanced at Ke Liman, and a look of pride became even more apparent in her eyes. She had given so many gifts to Yuan Hongyi, so this vote must belong to her, right?
