Chapter 69 - His Eyes Contained a Burning Passion

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Su Jinyang couldn’t come back to his senses for a long time. It seemed that he was always focused on his work and neglected his family. He didn’t even know when his daughter learned Chinese painting. 

He was a fair father. “Su Ye, what do you think about taking him as your teacher?” 

Su Jinyang also looked at Master Ye, who was full of anticipation. There was only one thought in his mind, ‘Would you even be able to teach my daughter?’ 

“Now that I’m in the third year of high school, I want to put my studies first.” 

He was rejected! And it was such a good reason too! 

The guests who had been silenced finally couldn’t hold it in any longer. 

“Master Ye was actually rejected?” 

“Some time ago, my younger brother wanted to give Master Ye eight million yuan as an apprenticeship fee, but he was rejected. Such a rare opportunity, and she actually didn’t want it?” 

“That’s what I said. To be able to become Bo Yunli’s fiancée, she must be extraordinary. You didn’t believe me when I said it before.” 

This time, no one mocked her. 

Su Jinyang felt a little regretful, but he still respected his daughter’s wishes. 

Xu Huanying was no longer calm. It was a waste to not want something that came for free! 

Just as she was about to speak, Master Ye beat her to it. “It’s alright. If there’s a chance in the future, I’ll definitely pay you a visit. I hope that your daughter can spare some time to discuss painting with me while she’s studying…” 

The more Master Ye spoke, the more mystical he became. That kind of humble attitude made it seem as if Su Ye was not a student, but a master painter who was as famous as he was, or perhaps even more famous… 

Rong Ruo’s hand that was holding the painting unconsciously trembled, and the smile that she was barely able to maintain became stiffer and stiffer… 

After all, Master Ye had not seen the painting that she had modified. 

Rong Ruo wanted to fight for a bit more and said softly, “Master, you haven’t seen my painting yet.” 

Master Ye looked over and only then did he remember that Rong Ruo was still here. 

“Rong Ruo, I almost forgot…” 

Rong Ruo was just about to grasp a glimmer of hope when she heard Master Ye say in the next second, “If there’s a chance in the future, you must learn well from Su Ye.” He pointed at Su Ye’s painting, “This is the life force that I have mentioned to you before, your weakest point!” 

The last smile on Rong Ruo’s face also froze… 

He actually wanted her to learn from Su Ye too! 

Master Ye was really crazy! 

Rong Ruo bit her pale and trembling lips, she said unwillingly, “Master, you once told me that good paper and paint can highlight the soul of a painting and can also show the intention of the painter. However, the ink that Su Ye used was clearly the cheapest ink possible. And that paper, it’s not even as good as the toilet paper that we use at home, how can you see the life force of her painting?” 

She was too emotional. No matter how hard she tried to hide it, she could not hide her jealousy. 

Master Ye shook his head. Rong Ruo was young, so it was understandable that she was competitive. 

However, she did not know that someone like Su Ye could completely break those rules with her extraordinary talent. She could not be judged by the eyes of the secular world. 

He was about to say something when Wang Qingshen, who had not spoken for a long time beside him, suddenly sighed faintly, “Nonsense, no one is more diligent than her!” 

Rong Ruo had a look of disbelief on her face when she heard that. It was one thing for Master Ye to be obsessed with the painting, but why was Grandfather Wang also… 

Only then did everyone notice Wang Qingshen’s expression. He stared at Su Ye’s bamboo forest painting, and his eyes actually contained a burning passion! 

Under everyone’s puzzled gazes, Wang Qingshen carefully rolled up Su Ye’s painting, treating delicately. 

He was not in a hurry to explain. He scanned the hall and found Bo Yunli, who was sitting in the VIP seat. 

He said somewhat embarrassedly, “Yunli, you should know why I said that.. You must have seen a painting very similar to it in your grandfather’s study, right?”
