Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 1861: Chapter 1797: There’s Nothing We Can Do Either

Chen Yin had already walked up to Wang Yi, ”If there’s anything to discuss, let’s go outside. Don’t disturb others who are appreciating the paintings.”

Ye Wanqing gritted her teeth, ”What’s there to appreciate? My paintings were supposed to be exhibited too. Now where are they? Where are they? My paintings disappeared for no reason; don’t you owe me an explanation?”

”What paintings?” Someone nearby couldn’t help but ask, ”Isn’t this Master Liu and Miss Xiao Chiang’s exhibition? Is she Xiao Chiang?”

”No way, is she Xiao Chiang?”

”Impossible, Xiao Chiang’s paintings are all here. They’re exceptionally good, and I like several of them. I’m thinking of buying one to hang in the living room.”

”I want to buy one too, though they’re expensive. But it’s good to look at them.”

People around quickly started discussing, praising Chiang Xiao’s artworks.

”Could this person really be Xiao Chiang?”

”She’s not Xiao Chiang.” Jin Lei didn’t want people to misunderstand that Chiang Xiao was such a person, so he immediately said, ”She’s a classmate from our art school, not Xiao Chiang.”

Wang Yi also said, ”Xiao Chiang was supposed to be here, but something came up at home. Her paintings for this exhibition are already displayed, and everyone is welcome to take a look. If interested, you can contact the gallery staff. All the paintings this time will be sold, and all proceeds will be donated to Shitou Town Hope Primary School. Paintings that have been confirmed as sold will have a small ’sold’ tag next to them, so if there’s a painting you like, you’d better hurry.”

As soon as she said this, half of the crowd immediately dispersed.

”Then we should hurry and take a look.”

”Right, it’s rare for all the paintings from Xiao Chiang and Master Liu’s exhibition to be up for sale.”

Ye Wanqing listened to them talk nonstop about Chiang Xiao, yet not a single person asked about her situation or inquired about her paintings, as if she was just a nobody, and whether her paintings were displayed or not was of no consequence.

She was really getting furious.

”I also have paintings to exhibit, and I’m doing it for charity too. Wang Yi, what do you mean by this? You don’t want me to contribute to Shitou Town?”

Wang Yi snorted and said, ”Charity work, we definitely welcome it. Also, your painting has actually already been sold. It was agreed upon initially that all the money from the sales would be donated to Shitou Town, so you’ve done a good deed too. We’ll make sure the money is sent to Shitou Town.”

Ye Wanqing was momentarily stunned.

”Already sold?”

Was the painting really that good?

Chen Liting couldn’t help but ask, ”That’s not right, if a painting is sold, shouldn’t it still be displayed with a small tag indicating it has been sold?”

Ye Wanqing also realized.

”Yes, that’s correct.”

In that case, her reputation would be even more prominent, having a painting purchased as soon as it’s hung up, without needing Guo Zitong to stage anything.

She felt joy in her heart and couldn’t help but feel a bit arrogant.

Unexpectedly, her painting sold the fastest. Does this mean her painting is better than Chiang Xiao’s?

Not a single one of Chiang Xiao’s paintings has been sold yet.

”I’m sorry, typically after a piece is sold, it remains on display,” Wang Yi calmly explained, ”but this is only if the buyer agrees. Unfortunately, that buyer specifically requested that they take the painting immediately, so we couldn’t do anything about it.”
