Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 1619: Chapter 1621: Do You Want to Participate?

Half a month passed quickly. For Chiang Xiao and Liu Guoying, it had been fulfilling, and they both created quite a few of their proud works.

Fu Mingfeng and He Jin, along with others, also visited the ancient tomb several times and gained a lot.

Chiang Xiao inquired about Magnetic Hand in Shitou Town, but no one seemed to know anything.

The villagers said that, at first, they simply thought it was fun and didn’t give it much thought. Later, as the news spread, many people came to Shitou Town, all demanding to see Magnetic Hand perform.

Some would even insist on examining his hands carefully.

Afterward, Magnetic Hand became a bit scared. No one knows exactly when, but one day he left Shitou Town and disappeared. No one knows where he went. After all, he was originally an orphan who grew up eating meals provided by many families. When he disappeared, the townspeople discussed him for a few days and then moved on.

So, no one knows where he is now.

Chiang Xiao didn’t really know why she was looking for him either. She just thought that maybe through Magnetic Hand, she could track down that person.

When did that research institute come into existence? Did the old man establish it himself, or did he take it over from someone else? Chiang Xiao didn’t have a single clue.

Even now, she rarely used the Magic Brush for painting; she had been laying low.

The Magic Brush was not like the one she used all the time in her previous life—casually drawing a painting would always involve it.

She mainly used it to paint cups, which were typically only used by her people. She also used it to paint packaging boxes for tea treats to maintain their freshness, something no one could guess.

Aside from a few medicinal paintings, most of her works, other than Old Bai’s, had not been sold.

And then there was the peace charm she painted for Meng Xinian.

This was already low-profile enough. In this lifetime, the Magic Brush hadn’t been used in some grand, attention-grabbing way.

But honestly, that was fine.

Because of her mindset in this lifetime, her works had improved significantly compared to those of her previous life. However, she knew she would eventually use the Magic Brush more moving forward.

On the way back, the car was filled with cheerful chatter as everyone shared their experiences and achievements from the past half-month.

He Jin rolled up a newspaper and held it to his mouth like a makeshift megaphone, pointing it at Chiang Xiao.

”Xiao Chiang, what do you think about that thing I mentioned to you before?”

Wu Xiayue pinched his arm. ”Childish, much?”

”I’m across the middle of the row from Xiao Chiang. This way, I can communicate better,” He Jin laughed aloud.

Chiang Xiao stroked her chin and said, ”That competition you mentioned—why haven’t I ever heard of it?”

He Jin had brought up the competition to her when they first arrived in Shitou Town, but she hadn’t paid it much attention. Even in her previous life, she had never heard of such a competition.

The competition was jointly organized by several countries. Moreover, it had been initiated by an aristocrat from Country Y. To participate wasn’t easy; there was a complicated application process, and even then, one might not get selected.

If someone were truly chosen for the competition, they would have to go abroad to compete.

She had simply never heard of such a competition before.

With everything else going on in her life, Chiang Xiao hadn’t given it any priority.

He Jin couldn’t help but laugh, ”How would you have heard of it? It’s not a competition that’s publicly advertised; hardly anyone knows about it. But if you’re selected and enter this competition, it’s as good as stepping into the aristocratic circle.”

Closing his eyes to rest, Liu Guoying opened them and asked, ”How do you sign up?”
