Chapter 193: Chapter 193: Paint a Wild Pheasant?

The mocking aside, the bulletin board behind the special talent class was immediately protected by someone.

As soon as Shi Yaoguang arrived at school, she found herself surrounded by people.

Someone bluntly asked her what was going on.

"Shi Yaoguang, it’s been leaked on Weibo that you had a traditional painting master create the bulletin board, is that true?"

"Are you trying to say that you painted the bulletin board yourself and then promoted the persona of a genius girl?"

"Shi Yaoguang, you..."

"..."

Shi Yaoguang, listening to these people interrogating her one after another, displayed a helpless expression.

"You’re asking me, but don’t you already have the answer in your hearts?"

At these words, the crowd immediately became restless.

Shi Yiqing’s supporters immediately started taunting: "So you’re just admitting it? Hahaha, you can’t be too vain as a person. How does it feel? Is it cool to have your ’genius girl’ pretense fall flat?"

"Hahaha, even hiring a hit master for drawing a bulletin board hahaha..."

"..."

Shi Yaoguang waited until they had laughed enough before she opened her mouth in a calm and collected manner: "Originally, I didn’t plan on hyping up any ’genius girl,’ but—"

"But what? You’re not about to say that you did all this reluctantly, and you didn’t want to, are you? Hahaha, who forced you?"

"Just admit it’s vanity; why go around in such a big circle? Tsk tsk..."

Shi Yaoguang shrugged, "Do you really want to hear my excuses, or do you just want me to listen to your nonsense?"

"Pfft." Someone laughed out loud, "So you’re admitting that you’re just making excuses?"

"Yes." Shi Yaoguang nodded affirmatively, "I admit it."

"Hahaha, if you admit it, then there’s nothing more to say!" The person leading the mockery said and, with a large wave of his hand, prepared to leave.

However, Shi Yaoguang extended her hand to stop him, "Since you’re here, don’t be in such a hurry to go."

The crowd looked at her, puzzled, asking: "What do you mean by that?"

Shi Yaoguang smiled, "Don’t you want to see my embarrassment? How can you without evidence?"

The crowd thought about it, indeed.

But they all looked at her with strange expressions.

She reminded them that they had no evidence, could it be that she intended... to provide them with it?

Thinking this, they heard Shi Yaoguang say: "Want to see the ’genius girl’ make a fool of herself? I’ll oblige."

"What do you mean by that?"

Shi Yaoguang pointed to the half-empty bulletin board in the special talent class display and said, "I’ll give you a live demonstration."

A few people exchanged looks and excitedly raised their phones.

Shi Yaoguang glanced at them and made no move to stop them from filming.

She quickly scanned the content on the blackboard, then turned to look at the people filming her with their phones and asked, "Would you like to see me draw Huashen Temple?"

Hearing her relaxed tone, one person’s eyes lit up with an idea and suggested, "You’ve already drawn a Phoenix, why not... draw a wild chicken right here?"

"Hahaha, Tang Jiu, you’re so wicked, how can you mock someone like that?"

Tang Jiu obviously didn’t believe Shi Yaoguang could draw a Phoenix.

That’s why he proposed that Shi Yaoguang should draw a wild chicken instead.

Shi Yaoguang didn’t seem to have any objections and took out a few colored chalks and began to draw.

More and more onlookers gathered nearby, and soon the entrance to the special talent class was packed.

Tang Jiu started a live stream with the title #Vain High School Girl’s Live Stream Fail#.

With the topic on fire on Weibo’s hot search, a surge of one hundred thousand viewers crammed into the live stream in an instant.

Tang Jiu wrote the reason for the live stream in the announcement section.

And with a series of ’hahas’, she emphasized to everyone that what Shi Yaoguang was currently painting was a wild chicken.

Without going into detail, just the phrase "wild chicken" was enough to provoke mockery.

Shi Yaoguang ignored the noisy crowd and sketched out the "wild chicken" that Tang Jiu wanted to see, stroke by stroke.

If one were to look only at Shi Yaoguang’s serious expression and dignified posture, everyone would think Shi Yaoguang must be quite impressive.

But when they saw what she’d painted, they couldn’t help but mock her.

"Hahahaha..."

"No wonder it’s called a car crash scene, does this even deserve to be called a wild chicken?"

"Wild chicken: This is the worst I’ve ever been slandered."

"No way, no way? The great artist who can paint the Phoenix in flight, how can she draw a wild chicken like this?"

"Hahaha, I can’t anymore, this talented girl isn’t here for laughs, is she?"

Not just in the live stream room but also those gathered around Shi Yaoguang, were shocked by her drawing skills.

"I originally thought Shi Yaoguang couldn’t be that foolish, asking for help with the blackboard newspaper, but now I believe it..."

The speaker looked at the unidentifiable creature that Shi Yaoguang had drawn and made a face as if it hurt their eyes.

Others joined in with laughter and comforted her not to feel bad.

However, the person being comforted had tears in her eyes, "I really believed that Shi Yaoguang wouldn’t deceive anyone. I study music too, so I thought since she played the piano so well, her character definitely wouldn’t be bad. I didn’t expect her to be this kind of person, I really misjudged her!"

The audience in Tang Jiu’s live stream heard these words too.

Immediately, some started asking questions in the bullet-screen comments, and soon, alumni from Ruihe High School enlightened them about Shi Yaoguang.

Though reluctant, they admitted that her piano skills were indeed not bad.

"Although someone’s character isn’t good, they really do play the piano well. During the cultural performance, the piece she played on stage, I had my piano teacher appraise it, and my teacher who played the piano for forty years said Shi Yaoguang played even better than he did, just didn’t expect she would crash and burn so quickly..."

Curious people specially asked for the video of Shi Yaoguang playing the piano.

After watching it, they couldn’t help but sigh that Shi Yaoguang got lucky.

If not for that, her piano playing wouldn’t be so good.

God really is unfair, to give such a good talent to a woman with such a flawed character.

Shi Yaoguang let the onlookers chatter near her ear.

Those doubts, she directly blocked out.

At first, the crowd kept mocking her, after all, the wild chicken she painted really looked like a pile of shit.

Even kindergartners could draw better than her.

But as time passed, the pattern that Shi Yaoguang was smearing with chalk gradually took shape.

Just looking at one part would give the impression of it being lifelike.

Such luxurious texture, it even gave the illusion that the wild chicken was alive.

Everyone subconsciously held their breath, not daring to disturb her continuing to paint.

The live stream audience also stopped their barrage of comments, watching Shi Yaoguang create the pattern.

Everyone was so focused that they didn’t notice when she finished the painting.

Shi Yaoguang put the remaining chalk back into the chalk box and smiled at Tang Jiu holding up the phone.

"My fellow student, I didn’t finish what I was saying just now."

"I never thought about hyping up the genius girl persona, since, after all... to me, the Phoenix in flight is just an ordinary painting."

"However—"
