#34 - Chapter 34 Shall we kiss?
Xu Mengyao said apologetically, "Teacher Zhao, the other party doesn't want me to reveal their identity, so I'm sorry, I can't tell you who it is."
Zhao Yanming was filled with regret.
"It really is like this."
"This expert must be a recluse. Otherwise, with his level, he would have already become famous. Your daughter is lucky to have his guidance."
Lin Chen's appearance surfaced in Xu Mengyao's mind.
"His cooking skills are so high, his language talent is so strong, and Lin Chen's painting skills are comparable to Xu Beihong."
"But he's very low-key, he really has the feeling of a recluse."
Xu Mengyao muttered to herself.
She felt like she was dreaming.
Even if Zhao Yanming's judgment was somewhat wrong, with Zhao Yanming's level, it shouldn't be too far off.
Lin Chen's level is definitely super high.
"Director Xu, I have a request."
Zhao Yanming said somewhat embarrassedly.
Xu Mengyao: "Teacher Zhao, please speak."
Zhao Yanming looked at the painting on the table: "Director Xu, can you help me ask the other party if I can buy this painting?"
Xu Mengyao shook her head.
"This painting was painted by the other party for Xiaoxi, and it has special significance for Xiaoxi, I don't want to sell it."
"If you want to buy it, I'll ask the other party later to see if they are willing to paint another one, what do you think?"
Zhao Yanming nodded: "Of course. Director Xu, Xu Beihong's works are basically above five million."
"But Xu Beihong's works are scarce, and his popularity is high, so the price will definitely be much higher. I'll offer eight hundred thousand to buy a similar work from the other party."
Xu Mengyao: "Teacher Zhao, I will tell the other party, but I can't guarantee whether the other party will paint for you."
"Well... thank you for your trouble."
Zhao Yanming said.
Xu Mengyao rolled up the painting and packed it away: "Teacher Zhao, I'm really sorry to waste your time this time."
Zhao Yanming shook his head: "It's my honor to see such a masterpiece and to know that there is such an expert in the world."
"I hope to have the opportunity to meet this expert in the future."
Xu Mengyao quickly said goodbye and left.
Back in the car, looking at the painting tube in her hand, Xu Mengyao still felt very shocked. Lin Chen's level was so high, and a painting could be worth eight hundred thousand.
Lin Chen didn't even spend half an hour painting this painting.
"President, where are we going?"
The driver and bodyguard Liang Ye asked.
Xu Mengyao considered for a while and said, "Go to Ziyuan Community."
This painting is worth eight hundred thousand, she can't just take it like this, she has to return this painting to Lin Chen.
In addition, she also had some questions she wanted to ask Lin Chen.
"I forgot to give him this book."
Xu Mengyao took out a book from the partition behind the seat. This book is the Lin Yu Fairy Tale Collection.
Moreover, this one is signed.
Xu Mengyao had previously bought two copies, and neither of her two copies were signed. This one was given to her by Tongxin.com later.
She is Lin Yu's first silver leader.
"Ding Dong——"
Xu Mengyao rang the doorbell.
Lin Chen saw Xu Mengyao outside the door from the peephole.
"Xiaoxi, mommy is here."
Lin Chen shouted.
He opened the door, Xu Mengyao looked at him with a strange expression. Lin Chen didn't look like a top artist.
"Mommy!"
Lin Xiaoxi ran over in surprise.
"Xixi."
Xu Mengyao squatted down and picked up Lin Xiaoxi, "Eh, Xixi, why do you smell like medicine?"
Lin Xiaoxi said娇声: "Mommy, I took a bath, daddy added black medicine to the water."
Xu Mengyao looked at Lin Chen.
Lin Chen said: "Xiaoxi kicked the quilt and caught a cold, but her cold is not serious, so don't worry. I'll give her some food supplements and then a medicinal bath and she'll be fine."
Xu Mengyao arrived in the room.
Lin Chen closed the door.
"Lin Chen, did you take Xiaoxi to see a Chinese medicine doctor?"
Xu Mengyao asked.
Lin Chen shook his head: "I prescribed the medicine for her myself."
Xu Mengyao looked at Lin Chen in surprise: "You know Chinese medicine?"
"Slightly."
Lin Chen said.
He didn't lie, Chinese medicine is broad and profound, it would take him thirty hours to reach the Grandmaster realm, now he only knows a little.
"This is for you."
Xu Mengyao returned the painting tube to Lin Chen.
"Mommy, let's go to the balcony."
"I drew a picture, daddy taught me how to draw."
Lin Xiaoxi urged.
Xu Mengyao took Lin Xiaoxi to the balcony, and she showed shock in her eyes when she saw the painting Lin Xiaoxi had drawn.
"Xixi, did you draw this?"
Xu Mengyao said in disbelief.
Lin Xiaoxi is only two years old, but this painting, from composition to color to artistic conception, is pretty good.
"Yes."
"Mommy, am I great?"
Lin Xiaoxi said with a little pride.
"Great!"
"Our Xixi is the best."
Xu Mengyao kissed Lin Xiaoxi to praise her.
Lin Xiaoxi said: "Mommy, daddy is even better. You kissed me, don't you want to kiss daddy too?"
Xu Mengyao: "…"
"Little ghost, don't worry about daddy and mommy's affairs."
Xu Mengyao knocked on Lin Xiaoxi's head.
"Cough, cough!"
Lin Xiaoxi coughed twice.
Xu Mengyao's heart tightened. Lin Xiaoxi's physique is not very good, and every cold takes several days to recover.
"Mengyao, don't worry."
"Xiaoxi just has a common cold, her bronchi are fine, and her lungs are even more fine. She should be fine tomorrow."
Lin Chen said with a smile.
Xu Mengyao said: "Are you sure she'll be fine in two days? Xiaoxi used to have to suffer for at least three or four days when she caught a cold."
"Once she had pneumonia and was hospitalized for more than ten days."
Lin Chen nodded: "I'm sure, you don't have to worry."
Xu Mengyao breathed a sigh of relief.
"Lin Chen, Xiaoxi's painting has improved so much. She's only two years old, but she can paint so well."
"Thank you."
Lin Xiaoxi looked at Xu Mengyao in confusion: "Mommy, why are you thanking daddy? Daddy taught me how to draw, you don't need to thank him, just kiss him."
Xu Mengyao's face turned slightly red.
"Adults can't let children see them kissing."
"Lin Chen, let's go to the room."
Xu Mengyao arrived at the study, and Lin Chen naturally followed.
"Shall we kiss?"
Lin Chen said with a smile.
Xu Mengyao glared at Lin Chen with her beautiful eyes: "Xixi is a child and talks nonsense, don't talk nonsense."
"Lin Chen, what is your level in painting?"
Lin Chen shook his head: "I don't know, I'm just entertaining myself. But I think I paint okay myself, and it shouldn't be a big problem to enlighten Xiaoxi, right?"
Xu Mengyao took a deep breath and said: "I showed your painting to a well-known painter, and his evaluation was that your level may not be lower than Xu Beihong's."
"Oh."
Lin Chen nodded.
It seems that the other party's level is okay, at least their eyesight is online.
"That's your reaction?"
"Don't you know who Xu Beihong is?"
Xu Mengyao said with a strange expression.
Lin Chen curled his lips and said: "Xu Mengyao, you're looking down on people a bit, I'm a college student anyway, I'm your senior, how could I not know Xu Beihong?"
"Then why is your reaction so flat?"
Xu Mengyao said.
Lin Chen asked in confusion: "What kind of reaction should I have? I'm not thinking of becoming a painter, I'm just teaching Xiaoxi at home."
Xu Mengyao: "I showed your painting to Zhao Yanming, and he wants to pay eight hundred thousand to buy a similar painting from you."
