Wandi discovered that something seemed to have suddenly become popular all over the world recently. Not to mention the overwhelming discussion online, but just around her, she could always see people busy.
Even Jiang Zouwei, who usually ignored the world, seemed interested. Wandi wondered, "Is that thing so interesting that even you are fascinated by it?"
Jiang Zouwei smiled faintly, "It's quite interesting." He pushed the screen over and said, "Do you want to come and see it?"
Wan Di shook her head. "Forget it. Didn't Yao Si mention that he was thinking about the auction? Let me take a look."
At the same time, a post on the entertainment section of the Star Forum quickly became popular.
1l: You all know about Mr. Wandi’s recent pictures, right? I heard a piece of gossip!
2l: Come on, come on, this picture has recently brought out the big guys in various fields. The Star Forum hasn't been this lively for a long time. It feels like a high-rise building has been built in just a few minutes of not checking it.
3l: Do you remember that post from yesterday? I bought stocks based on the picture posted by the original poster, and I followed the whole way. I forced myself not to buy as well, but the stock price kept rising. Now my tears are about to drown the planet!
4l: I know! I know! I watched the original poster analyze it, but I didn’t understand it at all. I just remember that it was very cool.
5l: After all, it is a picture of Master Wan Di. When it was released, it was definitely a martial arts secret book that the major sects competed for.
6l: I don’t understand the mathematics and reasoning, but from an aesthetic point of view, I feel it is very beautiful. Although it is just simple lines, the arrangement is harmonious and the combination is perfect.
7l: Well, let’s not talk about that for now. Everyone knows about SC Group, the leading interstellar manufacturing company. They used this pattern to make a series of clothing and furniture. Now there are previews, and they said that new products will be released on time at 8 o’clock in the evening.
8l: This speed is too fast, isn't there any wild porters who can move it? I don't want to leave the forum...
9l: Here are the leaked pictures. I originally thought it was shoddy, but it turns out to look pretty good.
10l: This is forcing me to spend money. Is this what it means when clothes make the man? Why do I feel like I become a lot smarter once I put them on?
11l: You know what, I feel the same way.
12l: News--Construction industry tycoon Lu Xuanzhou started live streaming!
13l: Lu Nai has actually started broadcasting, it’s a once-in-a-century event, what is it broadcasting, is it something like an architectural atlas?
14l: Ahhh, Lu Nai originally wanted to talk about Wan Di's drawings, but the principles behind them are so profound I just couldn't understand them. I accidentally mentioned that when she was younger, Wan Di visited her house, blah blah blah. Just as I was about to bring the topic back, the entire comment section begged Lu Nai to say more. Hahahahaha So now Lu Nai is gossiping.
15l: Hiss, it’s so interesting, I must listen to it.
16l: Lu Nai has met Wanti, Jiang Zouwei, Ji Wenxue, Ying Zhao, and Yao Si. This is too happy. They even had dinner together at home. Wow, I wouldn’t dare to do this even in my dreams.
17l: Ji Wenxue sent a message that they will go to the interstellar auction in a few days, and I heard that the original manuscript of Lady Wan Di’s painting will also appear at the auction!
…
The discussion on the Interstellar Forum was in full swing, and the auction was so popular that tickets were hard to come by thanks to the reputation of the original manuscript of Master Wan Di's divine painting.
Ji Wenxue had come back to play with her ball these past few days, and was now at Yao Si's animal home. The two of them lay on the lawn, closing their eyes and enjoying the sunbathing.
"You know what's very popular on the Internet recently..." Before Ji Wenxue finished speaking, Yao Si immediately took over, "I know, it's the amazing picture of Wan Di. I was the one who uploaded it to the Internet." Yao Si said with a proud look on his face.
"Huh?" Ji Wenxue was surprised. She hadn't expected to stumble upon such gossip. "Then where are you from?"
"I went back to the tree house that day and wanted to get something. When I walked out the door, I was suddenly hit by a tree."
"How stupid!" Ji Wenxue's eyes widened. "You went out before you woke up?"
Yao Si nudged Ji Wenxue's arm. "What? Let me continue. I tripped, but my reflexes were so strong that I regained my balance quickly. Just as I was about to stand up, I suddenly saw a ball of paper inside the branch. I picked it up and saw that it was a picture I had never seen before."
Because Yao Si accidentally fell again while picking up the paper ball, she felt so embarrassed that she didn't say anything.
"Looking at the penmanship, I could tell it was Wandi. I went to find her, and she told me to just throw it away." Yao Si swallowed a breath. "But how could I just throw it away? I looked at it over and over again, but I couldn't figure out the secret of this picture. I thought there's strength in numbers, so I posted it on Star.net. I didn't expect so many people to try to decipher it right away."
"Then Interstellar Auction contacted me and asked if I wanted to sell it. The proceeds would go to charity. I agreed."
Ji Wenxue stared at Yao Si for a long moment. "Charity?" This didn't seem like something a money-grubber like Yao Si would do. Could it be that Yao Si had changed so much after not seeing him for so long? She continued, "What charity?"
Upon hearing this, Yao Si lowered his head and laughed a few times, "It's something to do with animals!"
Several animal planets flashed through Ji Wenxue's mind. When she looked at Yao Si, she could just see the big sign behind Yao Si, "Animal House." A guess quickly took shape and entered Ji Wenxue's mind.
"The animal you are talking about, could it be the Animal House?" Ji Wenxue asked. In fact, she was already very sure in her heart, and Yao Si's reaction made her confirm her guess.
"Hahahaha, they are animals too. Besides, these kids have huge appetites. It's not easy for me to support them alone!" Yao Si bumped Ji Wenxue with his body.
Ying Zhao discovered a magical picture that was going viral online a few days ago. She stared at it for a while and suddenly smiled. Since everyone was so excited, she decided to join in the fun.
As soon as he had an idea, he started typing. This diagram has no official description and no restrictions. It seems to have nothing to do with any field, but it is not limited to any field. In fact, from a certain perspective, it can also adapt to the needs of all fields.
Ying Zhao herself is deeply involved in the medical field, and no matter what she looks at, she's always thinking about whether it has any connection to medicine, like an occupational hazard. This diagram is no different. If she's already excelled in fields like mathematics and philosophy, why not let her add another layer of color to the diagram in the medical field?
As soon as Ying Zhao's divine article came out, it really set off a crazy wave of enthusiasm. Ying Zhao couldn't help laughing at the discussion on the forum. Just then, she saw Jiang Zouwei walk in. She glanced at the screen and understood.
"Do you want to join in the fun?" Jiang Zouwei asked.
Ying Zhao was still smiling, "It's quite interesting, hahahaha. And Wan Di probably doesn't know about it yet, right?"
"Yeah." Jiang Zouwei confirmed, "I just invited her to come and see it, but she refused."
Ying Zhao smiled even more deeply when he heard this, "In that case, you'll know when you go to the auction." Ying Zhao said and he and Jiang Zouwei smiled knowingly.
Everyone was already on board the spaceship, ready for the auction. Evening was the last to arrive, having just finished a meeting. She smiled and apologized, then launched the spaceship. The flight was as lively and cheerful as usual, but even Evening, looking at everyone's smiles, felt like something was amiss.
There were already crowds of people on the way to the interstellar auction, with spaceships coming and going one after another. Even before arriving at the venue, one could already be infected by the atmosphere of such a lively event.
"It's so lively. It looks like there will be something interesting at this auction." Ying Zhao looked out the window and then turned back and said.
"Let me see. There's quite a bit on the flyer! Exotic flowers and plants, antiques, and supposedly lost nutritional formulas..." Ji Wenxue read the flyers slowly and unhurriedly to everyone. While they were all excellent, they were just appetizers. The real draw of this auction was Wandi's pictures, but they all tacitly avoided discussing that topic.
"Wandi, are you interested?" Yao Si raised his hand and asked actively.
Wan Di thought about it and shook her head, "No." She has never had high material desires and owns very few material possessions. Being free from all constraints makes Wan Di feel very relaxed.
Yao Si smiled even more happily when he heard that, "But maybe there will be a surprise in it. Usually, this kind of auction will have some selling points that are kept secret until the end, right?" Although the selling point this time is actually known to everyone.
Wandi nodded in agreement, "If you like anything, just take a picture of it. I'll pay." We finally got out to play, and I hope everyone had fun.
"Wow, great! Thank you, Wandi!" Several people cheered and accepted it without hesitation. After Wandi said that, Yao Si moved over and squeezed in a seat with Ji Wenxue. "Come on, come on, let's take a look at what's available at the auction. We need to choose carefully this time!"
Ji Wenxue smiled and bumped into Yao Si, "Really? You weren't interested, and you told me at that time that the money from the final sale would be enough."
Yao Si glanced at the promotional leaflet and said, "Let's put it one thing at a time. This is Wandi's gift, so of course we have to treat it well." Everyone was busy, and the frequency of going out to play together became lower. We need to cherish every time we get together, and it's also good to leave some memories.
Ying Zhao listened to Yao Si and Ji Wenxue chattering, and she also went over and said, "Then I'll take a look too." Being with them, she felt as if she had become younger.
Wandi asked Jiang Zouwei, who was sitting upright next to her, "Don't you want to go and take a look?"
"Nothing to see." Jiang Zou slightly crossed her legs. She looked at Wan Di again and finally couldn't help but curled her lips. "Besides, I already thought about what I want."
Jiang Zouwei looked determined to win, and Wandi's curiosity finally piqued. Was everyone so interested in this auction? But she had glanced at the list when she was researching it before, and to be honest, it wasn't anything special... right?
When we arrived at the venue, the atmosphere was indeed very lively. One exquisite item after another was displayed, and the lighting was 360 degrees. In this atmosphere, things that were originally considered ordinary suddenly became much more attractive.
Yao Si, Ji Wenxue, and Ying Zhao had already set their sights on the items they wanted, and with Wan Di paying for them, they were in their element at the auction. They happily won the items they liked.
Wan Di was also happy for them, but she felt strange looking at Jiang Zouwei who had been motionless since entering. Didn't he say that there was something he must get, but he had been indifferent since he came in.
"Has your stuff not arrived yet?" Wandi asked, turning her head.
"Yeah." Jiang Zouwei didn't seem anxious at all, and even comforted Wandi, "It's okay, it should be soon."
At this moment, the auctioneer announced with great emotion, "Well, now we have our last piece, our treasure of the town. Let us bring it out now. It is the hand-painted version of the divine picture by Lady Wan Di. Please welcome it!"
Amid the thunderous applause, Wan Di almost suspected that she was hallucinating. What did the host just say? What was this picture of hers?
When Wan Di wanted to ask Jiang Zouwei next to her, suddenly a spotlight was shone on her. She looked up and saw the host prompting her to go up and say a few words.
Wan Di was confused, but she didn't show it on her face. As she passed the exhibition booth, she looked at the crumpled paper and the pattern on it in the glass cabinet, and finally remembered, this... isn't this the draft paper she threw away that day?!
The host's introduction came to my ears, "Lady Wandi's drawings have already made a great impression in the fields of mathematics and medicine... Simple lines contain exquisite connotations..."
Out of the corner of her eye, Wan Di could see the host looking at her with sparkling eyes, and the people below also had admiration on their faces...except for Jiang Zouwei, who was looking straight at her with a relieved smile that said, "It's finally here."
The microphone was suddenly placed next to Wandi's lips. Even though we plant flowers with care, they don't bloom; but when we plant willows by accident, they grow into a forest. Sometimes, things we acquire unintentionally are closer to the essence of the world.
Although she felt comforted in her heart, Wandi still felt a little socially frustrated. Everyone's praise and admiration were too enthusiastic, and she really couldn't handle it. She said a few words hastily and ended her speech.
Yao Si, Ji Wenxue, Ying Zhao and Jiang Zouwei in the audience were laughing like crazy.
Wandi had never paid much attention to interstellar online forums. After the auction, she was just thankful that the frenzy was finally over. However, she hadn't expected another hot topic to appear on the interstellar forums.
