Chapter 151 - 151 Bai Chuwei Bullies Others
The Young Matriarch
You should know that there are only two surviving Spiritual White Script calligraphy and painting works in the world today, both classified as first-tier cultural relics in China, and currently stored in the National Museum.
Where did this painting come from?!
Zhao Guangming is highly skilled in calligraphy and is also a leading figure in the art appraisal industry. By touching the material of the scroll and observing the content of the painting, he could confirm that it was authentic, not a forgery.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Bai Shang suddenly saw his idol dumbfounded for a while, then pointed at Bai Chuwei.
It was a gift from his new cousin, and he had no expectations for a studentâs housewarming present; a token of thoughtfulness was enough.
Clutching the painting tightly, Zhao Guangming followed Bai Shangâs finger and saw the young girl sitting in front of the dining table, propping up her chin and smiling at them, her aura ethereal and elegant.
Zhao Guangming stared at Bai Chuwei, then blurted out, âArenât you the female student who gave me an umbrella at the school gate yesterday?â
He hadnât expected to see her again!
In an instant, Zhao Guangmingâs fondness for Bai Chuwei skyrocketed. Clearly, she was the real âBai classmateâ!
She matched the image he had in mind perfectlyâtruly, âthe style matches the personâ was not just an empty saying.
Soon, Zhao Guangmingâs thoughts were pulled back to the scroll in his hands. The old professorâs eyes turned red as he stared intensely at Bai Chuwei, his breathing becoming heavier: âDo you know this calligraphy and painting is a cultural relic? Why would you give it away?â
Bai Chuwei, hearing this, responded honestly, âBecause itâs valuable.â Its market value should be no less than eighty million.
Isnât Bai Shang keen on money and antiques? So she catered to his interests.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Guangming almost spat out a mouthful of blood, shouting somewhat unhinged, âThis is a national treasure, a priceless treasure! How can you measure it with money?â
Bai Chuwei rolled her eyes, âWithout putting a money value on it, itâs just a piece of waste paper.â
Such calligraphy and paintings, in her space, were just gathering dust in a pile.
Zhao Guangming was so agitated he was almost roaring, muttering ânational treasureâ to himself, Bai Shang even considered whether to hand it over to the stateâ¦
Bai Yinyin was dumbstruck, this was nothing like what she had imagined!
She was the one who brought Professor Zhao, she was supposed to be the envy of everyone, right?
Bai Yinyin clasped her hands together and called out softly, âProfessor Zhao?â
Zhao Guangming, holding the âSpring River under Moonlightâ painting, as if awakening from a dream, looked at Bai Chuwei with an increasingly fervent gaze, his voice trembling, âBai classmate, youâre the student who wrote that Chinese exam paper, the one who knows Spiritual White Script, right? I came all the way from the Imperial Capital specifically to find you!â
Zhao Guangming didnât need to ask; if Bai Chuwei could give away this scroll, it was certainly her.
When Bai Yinyin heard this, it struck her like a thunderbolt, her faceâs smug smile gradually faded, her eyes widening in disbelief as she stared at Zhao Guangming.
Bai Yinyin, clutching her head, screamed uncontrollably, âHow is this possible?!â
He came to find Bai Chuwei?
Wasnât he here to find her?
Bai Chuwei spoke indifferently, âI remember I warned you.â
Bai Yinyinâs mind went blank, her ears ringing, suddenly feeling like she could see and hear nothing.
Bai Chuwei had warned her⦠Yes, last night Bai Chuwei said that Zhao Guangming was coming for herâ¦
It was actually true.
Bai Yinyinâs face turned deathly pale, under the awkward stares of everyone present, she wished she could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
Bai Yinyin suddenly realized, what was she doing coming here to embarrass Bai Chuwei? She obviously came to humiliate herself!
Bai Yinyin couldnât hold back and tears instantly burst from her eyes.
Bai Chuwei was bullying her!
