Chapter 25: Shameless

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Everyone was shocked.

Qi Yanran’s face turned pale.

Li Hongjun was going to take in a disciple!

However, it was not Qi Yanran but Qi Yuan…

Qi Yanran grabbed Qi Yuan’s arm and used all her strength. Her nails dug into Qi Yuan’s arm, warning her not to agree.

Qi Yuan frowned and pushed Qi Yanran away.

Qi Yanran fell to the ground and immediately said aggrievedly, “I’m sorry, it’s all my fault. It has nothing to do with my sister.”

Someone immediately went forward to help Qi Yanran up and scolded Qi Yuan, “Qi Yuan, why are you so bad? You knew that Yanran wanted to become Elder Li’s disciple, but you deliberately destroyed her painting and snatched her teacher. Now, you even pushed Yanran down in front of everyone!”

“Is the Qi family abusing you or are you bullying Yanran!”

“Yanran is so good to you and protects you in everything. How can you be so vicious!”

Qi Yanran could not hide the smugness in her lowered eyes.

Even if she could not become his disciple, Qi Yuan could forget about successfully becoming his disciple.

Faced with everyone’s sarcasm, Qi Yuan, who usually only silently endured, said softly, “Sister, you just scratched me.”

It was only then that everyone noticed that Qi Yuan’s arm was already red. There was even blood coming out of those fingernail marks.

These voices of dissatisfaction and mockery stopped abruptly.

Although Qi Yanran was very good at pretending, after everyone saw the wound on Qi Yuan’s arm, they knew why she pushed her.

Many people thought of those abusive rumors and looked at Qi Yanran strangely. This was a top-notch fake b*tch!

Qi Yanran was stunned on the spot. This was the first time she had accidentally been discovered, so she didn’t know how to deal with it.

Wu Siya broke Qi Yanran’s awkwardness. She said to Li Hongjun, “Elder Li, Qi Yuan is just a blind cat meeting a dead mouse. It just so happens that she shares your opinion. She casually destroyed someone else’s painting and deliberately displayed herself in front of you. How can such a scheming person be your student!”

Li Hongjun was old and shrewd. How could he not understand Qi Yuan’s plan?

He had even seen the secret battle between Qi Yuan and Qi Yanran clearly.

Qi Yuan also looked up at Li Hongjun, as if to say that she had indeed planned this act.

She was so blunt, with no intention of hiding her true feelings.

She was also bluntly telling Elder Li that the painting was hers.

Li Hongjun was a stubborn old man who only followed his own wishes. He did not care what others thought. He glanced at Wu Siya and said sternly, “Are you teaching me how to do things?”

Alarmed, Wu quickly shook her head. “No… no. I’m just afraid you’ve been deceived by Qi Yuan.”

“Heh, no one can deceive me about painting and calligraphy.” After Li Hongjun finished speaking, he asked Qi Yuan, “Are you willing to be my student?”

“Is Elder Li really going to accept me?” Qi Yuan asked.

“Of course.”

“Then of course I am willing,” Qi Yuan agreed confidently.

She had originally planned to come and snatch the teacher. Even the ostentatious painting of red wine had been planned in advance. How could she not agree?

The Painting Faculty instantly fell silent.

Someone had really succeeded in becoming Master Li Hongjun’s disciple.

And it was a student who had been said by the Chinese Arts Academy to have no talent… and had been expelled.

Qi Yanran staggered and swayed.

Wu Siya was feeling no better.

Li Hongjun was a big shot figure of the contemporary Chinese painting world. In terms of status, even the entire Chinese Arts Academy combined would not be comparable to him.

Now that he had accepted a student who had been expelled from Huayi Academy, the school would become a joke if word got out.

Looking at Li Hongjun’s attitude, she knew that there was no turning back today.

Wu Siya suddenly remembered that when she asked Qi Yuan to sign it, Qi Yuan had told her not to regret it.

She forced a smile at Qi Yuan. “Qi Yuan, since you’ve obtained Elder Li’s approval, you must be talented. There might be some misunderstandings about your studies. Return the expulsion notice to me and we can forget about what I said.”

She was really shameless to go back on her word in public.
