Chapter 765: Chapter 764: The Unlucky Kid_1 Chapter 765: Chapter 764: The Unlucky Kid_1 Huo Kewei was startled for a moment, a multitude of promotional ideas flickered in his mind, but he discarded them one by one. This was his aunt, those methods suitable for others might not be suitable for her. Otherwise, not only would his uncle disapprove, but he knew he wouldn’t approve either.
In the end, Huo Kewei set his flippant expression aside, revealing a cold, devilish grin. This grin sent shivers down one’s spine, naturally garnering all the attention onto him.
“Leave it to me, you can rest assured.” His expression was solemn, an intense focus in his eyes made him appear as if he was a whole different person.
Nanfei thought to herself, could the knack for dramatic face changes be a traditional trait amongst the Huo men?
The group worked out the detailed promotion plan. First, the gallery had to establish a reputation, followed by inviting renowned painters to review. Huo Kewei proposed a terrible idea of inviting Yu Jingyi.
Upon hearing this, Dai Jinhai laughed heartily, insisting on inviting him personally as a favor that he would definitely oblige.
Thinking about Yu Jingyi’s expression, Nanfei couldn’t help but recall his critique of her in her past life.
“Artificial, spiritless, utterly devoid of talent. You are destined not to go far in the world of painting!”
These comments once chained her down. The shackles were put on by her then-respected teacher, each word a lock he personally fastened. He even laid into her without restraint while promoting Shi Xueyun, using her painstakingly crafted works as a stepping stone to Shi Xueyun’s fame.
These past occurrences former prisoners now dust-covered in the corners of her memory that she thought she had long forgotten. Unexpectedly, when brought up now, they still sting as sharply as fresh wounds. Only because she once considered Yu Jingyi a beloved elder, a respected teacher, and half a father.
The more one values, the deeper one gets hurt.
“Alright, settled then!” stood up Huo Kewei, “We own an auction house, the auction proceeds, after the gallery’s cut, will go directly into your account, auntie. Leave me your bank account details.”
Zuo Xinyao remained silent, but he already made a decision. They’d be fools to buy this painting, such an excellent piece would surely be a museum’s prized possession. If Jiang Nanfei wants to sell, they’d better buy it themselves.
“There’s no need for that! Consider this painting a gift for you, Kewei.” Said Nanfei generously: “Consider it a get-well gift, I heard you had a car accident.”
“Hahaha…Aunty, you are too generous, you see…”
“I know,” interrupted Nanfei, “You don’t have to keep correcting me.”
“Alright then! It seems that the timing of my car accident was perfect…”
Before he finished speaking, his head was smacked by Zuo Xinyao. “Shut up!” The two of them were always together, his car accident meant they shared the misfortune, did it not?
What a troublesome child.
Qi Li Town, Qi Li Middle School—-
“Jiang Zhuanzhuan, are you really going to transfer? Are you sure? The school has waived your tuition and miscellaneous fees, and if your graduation grades are good, there’s also a bonus.” The class teacher is really reluctant to let his prized student leave.
Her sister, Jiang Nanfei, had been the top of the province, raising the reputation of Qi Li Middle School to the top. Jiang Zhuanzhuan’s grades were absolutely comparable to Jiang Nanfei’s, if she took the college entrance examination at Qi Li Middle School this year, there was a high chance that Qi Li Middle School would produce the top scorer again.
This was such a golden opportunity, who would want to miss it?
“Teacher, I am very sure.” she replied.
