Chapter 156: Lin Tingsong's Closed-Door Disciple!
Mu Youyu took a few steps, pulling Jiang Liangjin to Mu Xi's side, "No!"
If the person hadn't been dragged away, she would say yes.
But the person was gone, and she couldn't be bothered to say.
Mu Xi glanced over, giving the boy beside her a light once-over.
The boy was tall and straight; after being looked at, he still didn't release Mu Youyu's hand, merely twitching his lips, "Hello, second brother."
Mu Xi: "……"
Fine, he's used to it.
If it's not "second brother," just pretend I didn't hear.
The three had nothing to say.
Yu Ling quickly walked up to Mu Youyu, palms together, face full of admiration, "Yue Shu great god! Mu great god! I love your paintings so much! Especially 'When Rain Falls at the Fingertips', I've read it N times these past years, it's absolutely amazing…… but the second season updates too slowly now,! Can I become your disciple?"
As soon as the first chapter of 'When Rain Falls at the Fingertips' was released, she started following it!
She never initially imagined that the person Yue Shu was Mu Youyu, who had competed against her two years ago!
Mu Youyu shook her head, "Thanks for liking my work, but there's no need to take me as a teacher; we can just exchange ideas."
Suddenly, a suppressed exclamation came from the entrance of the exhibition hall, and the crowd automatically parted to both sides, making a path.
Several art museum officials escorted an old man and two youths walking slowly; the old man was none other than the internationally renowned art master Lin Tingsong.
He wore a well-tailored outfit, his hair neatly combed, his face bearing an elegant smile; the two youths beside him also had extraordinary bearing, with Mu Xin on the left and Jun Chenling on the right.
Lin Tingsong instantly spotted Mu Youyu, his smile growing warmer, "Ah You, come over."
Jiang Liangjin smiled, "Youbao, go up."
Mu Xi gave an encouraging look.
"Okay!"
Mu Youyu nodded, turned around, facing the crowd's gaze, her face still maintaining a calm smile.
She gave Lin Tingsong a slight nod, then calmly stepped onto the stage step by step.
Upon reaching Lin Tingsong, she smiled and said, "Teacher."
That address left everyone staring at Mu Youyu in astonishment.
"Yue Shu great god…… is Lin Tingsong master's only closed-door disciple?!"
"That legendary figure who claimed he would take only one closed-door disciple in his lifetime, whose threshold was almost broken, the international art world's titan Lin Tingsong?!"
"She's…… only fifteen? Then how old was she when she won the national competition gold award two years ago?"
"Or is she Miss Mu?"
"This information overload is too much; everyone's brains momentarily crashed."
Lin Tingsong's expression was gentle; bringing his beloved disciple onto the stage, he picked up the microphone and declared resoundingly, "Ah You, today I formally introduce you to everyone."
Seeing Mu Youyu nod.
He then turned to the crowd, his voice booming: "Mu Youyu is my Lin Tingsong's only closed-door disciple in this lifetime, and also the creator of 'When Rain Falls at the Fingertips', Yue Shu, who has risen to fame in the comics world recently."
Hahahaha! Are you surprised? Is it unexpected?
His beloved disciple is only fifteen; have you been scared?
As expected, the venue erupted in an uproar, expressions varied, then applause broke out.
Around, several old friends glared at him fiercely: "Damn it, if they had acted a step earlier, Ah You would have been their disciple!"
Jiang Liangjin's gaze kept falling on the little plum, never leaving; seeing her so radiant, he indulgingly curled the corner of his mouth.
Yu Ling clapped excitedly, "I knew it! Yue Shu great god is the best!"
The professor Yu, who had remained silent, showed approval in his eyes.
After the applause subsided slightly, Lin Tingsong continued proudly: "Ah You possesses extraordinary talent, achieved great things at a young age, surpassing her teacher!"
He spoke proudly: "Today, I bring her here, hoping she can better display her talents in a broader world, and also hoping everyone in the art world will look after her!"
As his words fell, the venue first fell into a brief silence, then erupted in thunderous applause and exclamations.
"Good heavens! It's actually true!"
"Yue Shu great god is actually Lin master's disciple! I haven't even realized her painting is in the C position……"
"No wonder the style is so unique; it turns out Lin master gave guidance!"
"……"
Lin Tingsong turned his head to look at Mu Youyu, eyes expectant: "Ah You, say a few words to everyone."
Mu Youyu raised her head, her gaze slowly sweeping the crowd, her clear voice transmitted through the microphone: "Hello everyone, I am Mu Youyu, Lin teacher's only closed-door disciple."
She paused, then continued: "Also Yue Shu, it's an honor to have the chance to meet everyone."
After Mu Youyu politely said a few words.
Someone in the audience couldn't help shouting: "Yue Shu great god, how often does the second season of 'When Rain Falls at the Fingertips' update a chapter? We're dying of anxiety! What other identities do Night Yuan and Lin Yushi have!"
Upon hearing that, Mu Youyu curled the corner of her mouth with a faint smile: "Thanks for your liking, the second season updates one chapter per month, the identities will be revealed in the second season."
The crowd: "……" Do you hear yourself? One chapter a month?
Yu Ling:!!!!
Mu Xi, Mu Xin, and Jiang Liangjin were very satisfied; one chapter a month won't tire their precious one!
Not long after, Mu Youyu elegantly stepped down from the stage.
Lin Tingsong let everyone freely view the paintings, and also stepped down from the stage.
Mu Youyu was heading toward Jiang Liangjin.
Suddenly, a middle-aged man in a suit walked out of the crowd, his face showing an eager smile, facing her: "Miss Mu, I've long admired your name! Our institution wishes to sign a contract with you to fully promote your works; what do you think?"
"Good grief, his luck is too good! Coming to attend an art forum, Yue Shu is there too! Yue Shu's identity is still so awesome!"
Someone recognized him; he was the well-known head of a domestic art investment institution!
Mu Youyu didn't have time to reply, when several more people stepped forward, handing out their business cards respectfully: "Miss Mu, our gallery would like to host a solo exhibition for you!"
"I am… the editor-in-chief of a magazine, and I'd like to invite you to be our cover feature—do you have time?"
The scene became a little chaotic for a moment; Mu Xin stepped forward half a step, silently blocking in front of his sister, "Everyone, thank you for your enthusiasm; regarding the contract, we need time to consider."
He had the same face as Mu Youyu, but his expression was completely different, and his Atmosphere was strong.
The crowd guessed his identity, and instinctively stopped in their tracks.
Mu Youyu smiled again at the crowd, "Thank you for your recognition; for follow-up matters, my agent will get in touch with you."
The agent she referred to was precisely the person in charge of the professional team arranged by the Mu Family for her.
