Chapter 220: Chapter 217 Kneeling Ceremony (5th update, seeking subscription)

Ye Chen smiled and said, "It’s okay, I’m not that petty, they’re just two clowns."

Qiu Bai smiled and said, "Seeing the artistic skill in that painting, I thought you would be an old man with white hair, didn’t expect you to be so young."

Ye Chen smiled and said, "I just painted casually; I’m sorry to make the masters laugh."

Casually painting!

Qiu Bai and several vice presidents had strange expressions.

Does this sound human?

If painting casually is already so impressive, what level would it be if done seriously?

At this moment, the onlookers were all stunned.

"Oh my God, who exactly is this young man, that Chairman Qiu fired Chen Xuan for him."

"Yeah, it’s unbelievable that Chairman Qiu is so respectful to this young man."

"I’ve never heard of such a young painter before."

"I’m also curious, painting requires depth, this young man is so young, it shouldn’t be enough to make Master Qiu so respectful."

Everyone was at a loss.

Seeing Ye Chen being so humble, Qiu Bai also had a look of appreciation on his face.

Many young people, with a bit of talent, become insufferably arrogant.

But Ye Chen is different; not arrogant or impatient, instead, he gives a profound and unfathomable impression.

Especially since Ye Chen’s voice is very pleasant, hearing him speak makes one feel very comfortable.

Qiu Bai said, "Mr. Ye, just painting casually can produce such a divine work, it’s really admirable. Today, I, Old Qiu, thick-faced, am asking you for a painting, if that’s all right."

Ye Chen lightly smiled, "Just a painting, no problem."

At this time, Su Wanyi and Su Zheng also entered the hall.

"Wanyi, you’re finally here." Ye Chen smiled.

"Sister Wan Yi, the young master has been talking about you just now." Lin Wanrou smiled.

"Ah, just listening to those old men bragging, so annoying."

At this time, Su Zheng also walked in.

However, seeing another woman beside Ye Chen, holding his arm, his brow immediately furrowed.

After all, established a relationship with his daughter, yet still so intimate with other women, how could he entrust his daughter to such a person!

Just as Su Zheng was about to scold Ye Chen, someone stopped him.

"Brother Su, didn’t expect it, your daughter is actually Mr. Ye’s girlfriend, you really kept this well hidden." Brother Teng laughed.

Su Zheng was stunned.

Brother Teng, what kind of person, that’s a big boss in the business world.

Although both are elites in the business world, they’re not on the same level.

So Brother Teng used to just nod at him, now he directly calls him brother, Su Zheng felt extremely flattered.

In Su Zheng’s eyes, Brother Teng was like a giant, the two originally had no interaction.

Now the big business boss Brother Teng is being so friendly with him, it must be because of Ye Chen.

At this moment, Su Zheng’s heart was even more shocked.

Su Zheng awkwardly smiled, "President Ma, I only recently found out my daughter is in love, haha, now young people’s marriage matters aren’t up to us."

Brother Teng laughed, "Brother Su is really fortunate, ah too bad my daughter is still young, otherwise, haha, I’d try to hug Mr. Ye’s leg too."

Hearing Brother Teng’s words, Su Zheng was even more surprised.

"Yes, Ye Chen is quite good, at least among peers he’s also a standout."

Hearing Su Zheng’s words, Brother Teng almost spat out the water he had just drunk.

What do you mean quite good, among peers, even if you add up Hua Country’s old business bones, this young man is still a standout, alright?

Ye Chen, what identity, what background, marrying your daughter is ’quite good’?

Are you dreaming?

But Brother Teng knew some things were inconvenient to say too much, so he just hinted.

Ye Chen and his group walked into the main hall, many people didn’t know Ye Chen’s identity, so they all greeted Qiu Bai.

After all, Qiu Bai is the president of the Art Association, esteemed in the art world.

Qiu Bai was also very amiable, also greeting everyone.

Walking to the podium, Qiu Bai smiled and said to everyone, "Everyone, welcome to this painting conference. This conference is a grand event of our Art Association, hoping everyone can learn and exchange."

Pausing, Qiu Bai continued, "Today, through Mr. Chen, we met a prodigy in the field of calligraphy. I hope to start this exchange with a painting done live by Master Ye."

Hearing Qiu Bai’s words, everyone was stunned.

According to convention, this painting should be done by Qiu Bai, but instead it’s a young person, what’s going on?

Qiu Bai smiled and said, "Everyone may be curious as to why Mr. Ye is painting this picture. I want to tell everyone that Mr. Ye’s artistic achievement is far above mine."

Boom!

The venue was in an uproar.

Everyone was stunned by Qiu Bai’s words.

Su Zheng, Su Wanyi were also shocked.

Brother Teng, however, had a smile on his face, he had long anticipated people’s surprised expressions.

In fact, when Ye Chen painted that picture, his shock was no less than anyone present.

Su Zheng wondered, "Wanyi, does Ye Chen have a deep accomplishment in painting?"

Su Wanyi shook her head, "He never told me he can paint?"

Su Zheng couldn’t help but smile bitterly, he used to think Ye Chen wasn’t good enough for his daughter, now he realized how outstanding Ye Chen is.

To be Ye Chen’s girlfriend, the Su Family is simply too fortunate.

This Ye Chen, clearly this impressive, yet pretends to be a pig to eat a tiger.

But seeing his son-in-law being admired on stage, Su Zheng was very happy.

At this time, amidst everyone’s doubts, Ye Chen had already picked up the brush.

Beside him, Master Qiu was grinding the ink for Ye Chen on the spot.

Ye Chen picked up the brush, pondered for a moment, then waved the brush in his hand like flying.

Beside him, Qiu Bai watched Ye Chen painting intently.

The scene was silent, everyone was staring at the big screen.

Soon, a magnificent landscape painting was presented before everyone’s eyes.

Seeing this painting, everyone was dumbfounded.

Ye Chen had simply brought the landscape painting to life.

The mountains and rivers, the babbling stream, the singing birds and fragrant flowers on the mountain slope, all vividly alive.

After finishing, Ye Chen finally took a deep breath.

Beside him, Qiu Bai still watched Ye Chen intently, seemingly enlightened by something.

Ye Chen didn’t speak, just let him quietly observe the painting.

At this time, all the spectators were also stunned.

The people who could attend this painting conference were all elites in the art world, with very high artistic skills.

Ye Chen’s painting completely conquered everyone present.

"Oh my God, this painting is simply divine."

"So beautiful, this painting is in no way inferior to the level of those ancient masters."

"I feel like the flowers, birds, fish, and insects in the painting seem to move, it’s amazing."

On stage, Qiu Bai felt the breeze across his forehead, feeling a chill, he awoke from his enlightenment.

No one expected that Qiu Bai suddenly stepped in front of Ye Chen and knelt on the ground directly.
