~5 min read 852 words

"Qingge, marry me!"

As soon as the words were spoken, the whole room erupted into chaos.

No one expected that Wu Xiaosi would take advantage of the art exhibition to propose to another girl!

Clap!

All the lights in the exhibition went out, plunging the space into complete darkness.

Suddenly, a spotlight appeared, illuminating Jiang Qingge.

Jiang Qingge stood there, caught off guard.

The incident was so sudden that it left her mind blank, unsure of what to do.

"Marry him! Marry him!"

After their initial shock, the crowd started to egg her on.

Wu Xiaosi wore a smile as he took a bouquet of roses from a staff member.

Another spotlight shone on Wu Xiaosi, following him as he stepped forward.

Soon, Wu Xiaosi arrived in front of Jiang Qingge, knelt on one knee, and extended the roses toward her.

Among the flowers, there was also a diamond ring.

Wu Xiaosi looked at Jiang Qingge with deep affection and spoke with emotion, "Qingge, marry me, I will treat you well for the rest of my life!"

Jiang Qingge, experiencing something like this for the first time, found it difficult to embarrass Wu Xiaosi in front of everyone, despite her unwillingness.

She looked at Su Qinwei and Ye Qinghuang for help, hoping they could assist her.

Then, a voice suddenly rang out.

"No, she can’t marry you."

Upon hearing the objection, Wu Xiaosi and the onlookers all turned to look, only to see a young man stepping forward.

"Yin Tian!"

Jiang Qingge’s eyes filled with surprise, not expecting Yin Tian to appear!

Jiang Qingge immediately left Wu Xiaosi behind and ran to stand behind Yin Tian, hugging his arm, her face full of panic.

Wu Xiaosi’s brow furrowed.

He noticed that Jiang Qingge seemed very close to Yin Tian!

Wu Xiaosi took a deep breath but kept a strained smile on his face, "Qingge, who is this?"

Before Jiang Qingge could speak, Yin Tian had already said, "Me? I am Qingge’s fiancé."

With those words, Wu Xiaosi’s expression turned sour.

He hadn’t expected Yin Tian to say such a thing!

"Qingge, is it true?"

Wu Xiaosi looked at Jiang Qingge with a wounded expression.

Jiang Qingge glanced at Yin Tian and without any hesitation, nodded, "Yes! He is my fiancé!"

Seeing Jiang Qingge admit it herself made Wu Xiaosi’s face grow even more unpleasant.

"Yin Tian? Who are you? How come I’ve never heard of you?"

Wu Xiaosi looked at Yin Tian with a glint of hostility in his eyes, "What makes you think you can give Qingge happiness?"

"Why can’t I? And why do you think you can?"

"Me? Who in the Imperial Capital doesn’t know that I, Wu Xiaosi, am the rising star of the art world, the future flag-bearer?"

Wu Xiaosi’s face beamed with pride, "What about you? What do you have? How can someone who isn’t even well-known dare to compare with me?"

"The rising star of the art world? The future flag-bearer? Ha..."

Yin Tian let out a derisive laugh, "With this level of painting?"

Wu Xiaosi, priding himself as a talent in the art world, felt his ego bruised upon hearing Yin Tian mock his most cherished skill.

"Say that again? I might not argue with you on anything else, but what gives you the right to say my painting skill is not good?"

Wu Xiaosi glared at Yin Tian, "Do you understand painting? Do you understand art?"

"Art?"

Yin Tian glanced at Wu Xiaosi, then lifted his arm to point at the painting with Jiang Qingge’s portrait, "This thing here?"

"Just this, you couldn’t achieve!"

Wu Xiaosi scoffed.

Yin Tian shook his head, "All form but no substance."

"Even though it looks like her, it’s just an ordinary painting that anyone who has learned painting could easily do. What’s there to be proud of?"

"You!"

Wu Xiaosi was infuriated by Yin Tian’s words, "You’ve said so much; now show me your skill. Let’s see how capable you are to stand here and criticize so presumptuously!"

"Since you want to see, I will give you some pointers."

Yin Tian walked up to the portrait, stretched out his arm, and actually took down the giant framed painting which weighed a good fifty pounds.

"What are you doing?"

Wu Xiaosi was dumbstruck by Yin Tian’s actions, uncertain of what he intended to do.

"Hand me a brush."

Yin Tian spoke.

"Humph!"

Wu Xiaosi snorted and gestured to a staff member nearby.

The staff member quickly came over with a brush and handed it to Yin Tian.

"Your work is akin to a template; to want anything different, you just need to add some details."

Yin Tian said calmly, picked up the brush, and began to make changes on the canvas.

With just a few strokes, the image on the canvas changed, turning from Jiang Qingge into Su Qinwei!

"Ah!"

Su Qinwei let out a surprised cry, covering her mouth with her hand.

Wu Xiaosi’s eyelids twitched.

From the few expert strokes Yin Tian had just made,

He could tell that Yin Tian’s painting skills were far from ordinary!
