Modu University. You’re just a delivery guy showing off here, now I order you to step down.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Hua walked up to Ye Chen with an arrogant expression and said coldly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen originally didn’t want to argue with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the other person was being aggressive, making Ye Chen a bit annoyed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seriously, don’t take me for a fool.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen usually kept a low profile, but that didn’t mean he would let himself be bullied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since you’re showing off in front of me, I will happily slap your face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instantly, an aura of authority emanated from Ye Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feeling this aura, Chen Hua’s expression changed, and he involuntarily took two or three steps back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen smiled faintly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s right, Song Xiaoxiao’s painting was guided by me, mostly because her previous work was too lousy, and I couldn’t stand it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen originally wanted to get along with them quietly, but the other party was aggressive, leaving Ye Chen with no choice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen glanced at Chen Hua: “As for your painting, I can only say it’s the fighter jet of garbage.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing Ye Chen’s words, Chen Hua was stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This guy actually dared to openly mock his painting as trash.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Hua was almost driven mad by Ye Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially Ye Chen’s arrogant expression. He thought he was arrogant enough, but the guy in front of him was even more so.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Kid, stop spouting nonsense.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Hua exclaimed angrily: “Kid, you call my painting trash, fine, why don’t you come up and paint one, let’s see your skills.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen chuckled: “You think I can’t paint?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Hua sneered: “A delivery guy, whatever he paints is just trash.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If your painting isn’t better than mine, I want you to kneel and apologize to me in public.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Chen Hua’s words, Ye Chen laughed: “Alright, it’s a deal.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then let Teacher Tang be the judge,” Chen Hua said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen nodded: “Of course.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing that Ye Chen was going to paint on the spot, the scene was in an uproar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whoa, Chen Hua is really betting hard here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen’s mouth curled slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a Divine-level Painting Skill, the national painting he creates is no different from one by Tang Bohu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So why would he be afraid of betting?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Hua glared at Ye Chen and said: “If you’re scared, I can give you a chance to step down immediately.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen narrowed his eyes slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Afraid, I, Ye Chen, have never been afraid.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen smiled faintly, walked to the rice paper, and picked up a brush.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, to everyone’s surprise, Ye Chen picked up the ink on the table and splashed it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Witnessing this scene, everyone was stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What is this guy doing?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He actually splashed ink over the table, is this even painting?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tang Zhen witnessed the scene, his eyes slightly narrowing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was he intending to create a painting by splashing ink?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, a look of disdain also appeared on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s extremely difficult to create a painting by splashing ink.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is the unique skill of Tang Bohu, trying to emulate it now is simply daydreaming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet in the next instant, Tang Zhen was dumbfounded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen, taking advantage of the splashed ink, began painting skillfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, a landscape of rolling mountains appeared before everyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the mountain drawn looked too realistic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mist drifted, and you could even see trees on the mountain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The strokes, the feel of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tang Zhen’s expression slightly changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He suddenly remembered a painting by Tang Bohu of a late spring river scene.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This painting was practically identical to Tang Bohu’s work from back in the day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Ye Chen’s painting, the scene was instantly abuzz.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone was in a daze, watching Ye Chen paint.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen’s painting was too beautiful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially the way he painted, many girls had stars in their eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone seemed to be immersed in the painting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once the painting was finished, the place fell into complete silence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, the applause exploded like thunder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though Song Xiaoxiao’s painting had already shocked many.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it was Ye Chen’s painting that showed people what a master-level work really is.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although many didn’t understand art, they were captivated by the scenery in the painting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This painting was just too beautiful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one was more shocked than Tang Zhen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was completely stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen’s painting was just like one done by Tang Bohu himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tang Zhen had in-depth research on Tang Bohu’s paintings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen’s painting, in terms of technique and strokes, was just like something his ancestor would have painted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he hadn’t witnessed Ye Chen painting it himself, Tang Zhen might have suspected it was originally done by Tang Bohu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could he possibly be the reincarnation of the ancestor?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It can be said, Ye Chen’s painting had no flaws.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Chen Hua, who was just being extremely arrogant, was left dumbfounded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter what, he couldn’t have imagined that Ye Chen’s painting skills were so superior.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen’s painting was far too advanced compared to his own.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In front of Ye Chen’s painting, his own looked like a child’s drawing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right now, Song Xiaoxiao admired him even more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Painting by splashing ink, Ye Chen was simply too incredible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Song Xiaoxiao knew that with Ye Chen’s painting alone, he was enough to enter the ranks of national painting masters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh my god, I didn’t know Ye Chen was so good at painting.” Below the stage, Murong Xue and Xu Ning were also dumbfounded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This painting, Ye Chen painted it so excellently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, the entire venue was buzzing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Countless beauties looked at Ye Chen with stars in their eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the guys looked at Ye Chen with envy, jealousy, and hatred.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, below the stage, a man with sharp eyes watched the others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man was very handsome, his upright figure staring at Ye Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This person was none other than Zhao Yun’s descendant, Zhao Kun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right now, Zhao Kun was also gazing at Ye Chen with a hint of seriousness in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could see Ye Chen’s extraordinariness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Zhao Kun also liked Song Xiaoxiao, he was displeased seeing her gaze at Ye Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A delivery guy, daring to compete with me for a woman, interesting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, the entire stage went wild.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh my god, this painting is too beautiful.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This painting is simply amazing.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Master, is this painting for sale? I want to buy it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone had forgotten Ye Chen’s identity as a delivery guy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen’s painting was just too beautiful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if he was just a delivery guy, so what, Ye Chen could casually paint a piece, and be regarded as a master in the field of national painting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Hua’s eyes were cold as he stared at Ye Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Originally, he wanted to show off on stage to win Song Xiaoxiao’s favor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he didn’t expect it all to be messed up by him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen playfully looked at Chen Hua.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Do you still remember the bet we made?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Hua’s expression changed immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the school stage, was he going to kneel in front of thousands of juniors and apologize to Ye Chen?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Hua’s face turned as if he had eaten shit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stood frozen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked towards Tang Zhen, hoping the teacher would help him out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tang Zhen snorted coldly: “A man should have the responsibility of one, if you’ve said it, then you must honor it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Hua was utterly dumbfounded, and with a thump, he knelt on the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>",1297,"2026-06-03T08:13:04.630Z","2026-06-03T08:13:06.701Z",1,"novelbin.me","60022109fce877ebfb0676e81b68e59c39128b2d8855af345fbdd77cf2e4e423","starting-as-the-president-of-a-billionaire-group-chapter-1033","starting-as-the-president-of-a-billionaire-group-chapter-1031",1261,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fstarting-as-the-president-of-a-billionaire-group-cover.jpg"]
