Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 1175: Chapter 1176 Help Her Cover Up

Kuang Yun Xian smiled lightly, looking at her very kindly, and said, ”Little Chiang has always been clever and quick-witted, so how could she ask such a foolish question? A nighttime banquet in the mountains is strange in itself, do I need to list the details for you?”

Chiang Xiao immediately felt a bit embarrassed.

She indeed had asked a foolish question.

The painting was inherently full of oddities, which anyone with a discerning eye could see; was there even a need to ask?

However, she also realized that Kuang Yun Xian had not yet seen the man wearing the veil.

The people and things in the painting were all closely packed; even when she had just leaned in to look, Kuang Yun Xian had not been able to tell exactly what she was viewing.

Moreover, Kuang Yun Xian’s attention had mostly been on the painting just now, so he hadn’t paid much attention to her.

Seeing her a bit embarrassed, Meng Xinian immediately said, ”I didn’t notice anything strange either, and maybe those who arranged the banquet just enjoy the wilderness and like setting up feasts in such places—it’s not odd at all. Don’t worry, Little, it’s not foolish to ask such a question.”

Kuang Yun Xian’s smile deepened.

”True, one can’t bear to hear half a word against Little Chiang.”

So protective of her.

He hadn’t really said anything, though.

In facing Chiang Xiao’s question, Meng Xinian truly made him feel especially intrigued.

Though usually proud and conceited, here he was, willing to admit he was even sillier, all to comfort Chiang Xiao.

Did Chiang Xiao really need that much comforting?

In his view, Chiang Xiao had merely misspoken momentarily, not that she was truly foolish.

”Naturally, this is my dear girl,” Meng Xinian tightened his arm around her for a moment, hugging Chiang Xiao briefly before letting her go.

Chiang Xiao stealthily glanced at him.

Her heart grew somewhat uneasy again.

From her understanding of Meng Xinian, he probably had spotted some doubt in her again; this was him helping her cover up a thing or two.

Kuang Yun Xian shook his head, chuckling.

”Alright, alright, I’m in my thirties and still without a partner, can you spare me? Please stop flaunting in front of me.”

Meng Xinian raised an eyebrow, ”You talk as if, if you had a partner, you could be as good as my Little.”

Chiang Xiao couldn’t help but pinch him at his waist.

Enough is enough.

Kuang Yun Xian truly had the best temperament of all, merely smiling.

”How will this mural be handled?” Chiang Xiao asked.

”First and foremost, it must be well protected; yes, we also need to have this painting copied. This task,” Kuang Yun Xian glanced at Meng Xinian, paused briefly, and continued, ”will be entrusted to our association. Speaking of copying, Little Chiang, our chairman thinks of inviting your mentor to join our association, and then this copying task would be yours and your mentor, Mr. Liu Guoying.”

To copy alongside her mentor?

Chiang Xiao was moved.

She definitely agreed to it!

After all, she had already discovered the key element in the painting. Having the chance to copy it gave her time to think about how to handle the half-exposed Magic Brush.

It was for sure that Zheng Yucheng and his team valued Liu Guoying because of his copied Autumn Scenery Painting.

And now, Liu Guoying’s reputation was soaring; he was no longer an unknown minor figure.

”Good, I will call my mentor about this after I descend the mountain. But before we start copying, how will this painting be handled?”

”We will have someone watch over it temporarily; it won’t be accessible to others.”

Chiang Xiao breathed a sigh of relief.

She didn’t want others to discover it. Who knows if someone else might notice such a minute detail? Although it was a very small detail in the entire painting, the moment someone actually saw it, that brush would immediately catch their eyes.

Only half of the brush was exposed, but that brush was stunningly beautiful.
