Chapter 545: Painting!

Of course, Ye Li knew that Xue Xi would be on the show because Xue Xi had told her, but the production team had invited Ye Li first. At that time, she wanted to cheer Qin Shuang on, so she had agreed to come.

Later, when she found out that Xue Xi was also coming, she’d especially approached the production team to ask if it was alright to have relatives around.

The production team said that it was alright, so Ye Li did not react when she saw Xue Xi. She smiled and raised her brows smugly.

It was simply too much fun to see her daughter’s stunned expression.

Qin Shuang was also stunned when she saw Ye Li. She then turned to look at Xue Xi. Seeing that she did not call out, Qin Shuang was afraid that calling her auntie would bring about some trouble, so she did not say anything.

After all, if people found out that this was Sister Xi’s mother, wouldn’t they say that they had used connections?

Just as she was thinking about this, Zhan Busi and Xu Xinyao walked in. The two of them smiled and said, “I wonder how we’re going to pass this round?”

The person-in-charge of the program team said directly, “Let me introduce this teacher to everyone first. She is Teacher Night Li, who has recently become famous in the Chinese art world. She is also the president of Bin City’s Art Association. Her landscape painting received praise from the president of the Chinese Art Association, Recluse. She also collaborated with Recluse to design the background setting and graphics guidance for the new POG game.”

After he said this, the commenters started asking:

“—I’m not an art student, but just listening to it, it doesn’t sound very impressive!”

“I don’t know her. There’s still a barrier between us and the artistic circle. Ordinary people can’t enter.”

“I’m an art student. I know Night Li. Ahhhhh, I didn’t expect Night Li to be so beautiful! Her temperament is also good!”

“—Let me put it this way, Teacher Night Li’s landscape painting once sold for a high price of 15 million yuan. From that, can’t you gauge how powerful she is?”

“—What the f*ck! Fifteen million for a painting? This is the first time I’ve seen such a high-earning painter.”

This was the first time he had seen such a high-earning painter who’s still alive.

“—Same here.”

“How awesome!”

In art circles, many would only get their works recognized after they’d passed away. Only then would their works start to become extremely valuable.

After learning about Night Li’s status in the art world, everyone continued to listen to the person-in-charge talk about the rules to pass the test. “If you want to pass this test, you have to get Teacher Night Li’s approval. She will take out a painting and show it to you. Then, you will draw it and she will judge your piece. You use any medium such as oil painting, Chinese painting, or anything else you want.”

Zhan Busi nodded.

Seeing that Ye Li was silent, Xue Xi nodded.

Ye Li glanced at Xue Xi before picking up one of her paintings and opening it slowly.

It was a tree.

With just a few strokes, a broken cliff wall was depicted along with the trunk of this tree, which was rugged and gave off an exceptionally stubborn and determined feeling.

Ye Li’s standard of Chinese arts was really impressive. It was as though the mood was about to leap out of the picture.

After she opened it, Zhan Busi gave her a thumbs up. “Teacher Night Li’s Chinese paintings are really superb!”

Even those who didn’t know much about art left comments on the bullet screen:

“I really don’t know anything about art, nor do I know anything about painting. However, Teacher Ye Li’s painting is really easy to understand! When I see this painting, I feel that the surroundings are very quiet. That tree gives the feeling of being alone!”

“—Same as upstairs.”

“Ah ah ah, I study Chinese Arts. Teacher Night Li is simply too amazing! The level of drawing achieved within a few seconds is something we are far from reaching.”

…

While everyone was praising her, Night Li put away the painting.

The production team staff pointed at the surrounding drawing equipment. “You can start now.”

The things prepared here were very complete. There were materials for oil paintings, sketches, and calligraphy works.

Xue Xi and Zhan Busi looked at each other before walking toward the oil painting and Chinese painting materials, respectively.

Since they were using different materials, there was no problem with them getting in each other’s way. The two of them started drawing.

Xue Xi dipped her brush in the paint and thought for a moment before beginning to draw.

The commenters were filled with worry:

“Sister Xi took a brush! Does she know Chinese art? I’m nervous!”

“I don’t know why, but it’s so strange to see Teacher Night Li. Don’t you guys think that Teacher Night Li and Sister Xi look alike?”

“—Previous poster, I want to punch you for saying this. What nonsense are you spouting? Hahaha!”

“Do all beauties look the same? Is it that only ugly people look different? Of course beauties do too.”

…

While everyone was chatting, Zhan Busi and Xue Xi finished painting.

Xue Xi put down the brush first, but she was in no hurry to show it to Ye Li. Instead, she waited for the paint to dry before picking it up.

When Zhan Busi saw her get up, he eagerly handed his oil painting to Ye Li.

The mural of the cliff on the oil painting was even more straightforward. The tree was slightly greener, making it seem even more lively.

Ye Li took a few glances and nodded. “It’s very graphic, clear, and colorful. However, if you modify it here…”

Ye Li pointed at the painting and gave a few suggestions.

Following her instructions, Zhan Busi made a few changes and the entire painting became three-dimensional.

Zhan Busi was very knowledgeable and sincerely said, “Thank you, Teacher.”

Ye Li shook her head. “Your painting passed.”

She then looked at Xue Xi.

Xue Xi raised the painting in her hand. At that moment, everyone in the room shut up. Ye Li raised her brows and the production team immediately took out the painting that Ye Li had brought over and opened it too.

The two paintings were exactly the same, except that one was framed and the other was not.

But whether it was the size or the movement of the brush, it was hard to differentiate between them!

The live commenters were all shocked!

They were all praising her.

“—Sister Xi is awesome!”

“—What the f*ck! That’s all I can think of!”

“——This is practically a copy, right? It’s too similar! It’s basically drawn by one person, right?”

“Is a genius really good at everything?”

Just as everyone was praising her, Ye Li shook her head. “Why don’t you have any feelings when you paint?”

Her words silenced the entire room.

Xu Xinyao recovered from her shock and a gloating look flashed across her eyes. She hurriedly looked at Ye Li and said, “That’s right. Although Xue Xi’s painting is exactly the same as Teacher Night Li’s, there are no changes to it at all. It has no meaning.”

They could finally beat Xue Xi in one aspect!

Xu Xinyao was pleased with herself.

The comments section was filled with people who wanted to watch the show. Xu Xinyao’s fans added fuel to the fire.

“—Hahaha, Sister Xi from a certain school has failed!”

“—A large-scale car crash!”

Qin Shuang’s fans were on tenterhooks.

“What should I do? What should I do? Could Sister Xi not get this point?”

Just as everyone was having their own thoughts, Ye Li raised her brows and looked at Xu Xinyao. “A painting indeed needs to contain personal things and express something.”

She changed her tone and continued—
