Chapter 101: Chapter 101: Mother-in-Law Convinced

Old Mr. Su’s gaze landed on Chen Fan, and the smile on his face couldn’t be suppressed.

He looked towards Su Zhenyun and Jian Wanrong, "You look down on Chen Fan, yet not only does he possess a divine skill in medicine, but he has also achieved such feats in the field of Cultivation. What do you have to say for yourselves now!"

Su Zhenyun’s face was full of shame, "Father, I was too full of myself."

Not just him, even Su Qingyan was full of shock in her heart.

Although she knew that Chen Fan had the title of Master Chen, she didn’t know that the name of Master Chen had become so renowned in the provincial city’s Cultivation World.

The president of the Cultivator’s Association personally said he wasn’t worthy to be named alongside Chen Fan. This praise was enough to prove Chen Fan’s prowess.

Not far away, Su Shuolei was trembling with excitement, "Chen Fan is not only a Grandmaster but also a Cultivation Master! I said he would surely become famous in the provincial city!"

He looked at Su Hao with pride, muttering under his breath, "Let’s see if you dare to say again that those whom I, Su Shuolei, favor do not amount to much!"

Jian Wanrong took a deep breath, her view of Chen Fan starting to waver. Chen Fan’s achievements at such a young age were indeed astonishing.

But after all, she came from the Capital. If looking from the perspective of choosing a son-in-law, she felt that Chen Fan still wasn’t enough.

"Old Mr. Su, Chen Fan’s achievements are indeed not bad, but that’s only when speaking of Jiang City. If he wants to be considered a match for Yanyan, I think he still falls short, at the very least from my perspective. Yanyan’s other half should be well-rounded, for example, besides personal strength, he should also have high achievements in the arts. Such a person would truly be worthy of Yanyan," Jian Wanrong said, looking at Old Mr. Su.

Old Mr. Su snorted coldly, "It seems that you have a preference for art, hence this requirement. Is this really about finding a partner for Qingyan, or for yourself?"

Jian Wanrong’s face flushed with embarrassment, but she quickly returned to normal, "I still stand by my view."

At this moment, Lu Jinyuan stood up, holding a painting in his hands, and walked over to Old Mr. Su.

"Old Mr. Su, I’ve heard that you’ve always appreciated painting and calligraphy, so I’ve brought a painting by Master Qingyun as a special gift for you. Please accept it with my compliments."

Old Mr. Su’s eyes lit up as he quickly took it and unrolled it to take a look, "Such detail, such spirit – this is indeed an authentic piece by Master Qingyun. Boss Lu, you are too generous!"

Jian Wanrong walked over excitedly and glanced at the painting, her eyes brimming with joy.

She had loved painting since she was a child and longed for the recently celebrated Master Qingyun.

However, because Master Qingyun’s artworks were so popular, she had not been able to secure one to this day.

"Boss Lu is actually gifting Master Qingyun’s painting to Old Mr. Su – could it be a painful parting for you? His works are now worth their weight in gold!" Jian Wanrong exclaimed.

Lu Jinyuan said with a smile, "Not at all, all of Master Qingyun’s artworks are sold through me. If I want a painting, I just ask Master Qingyun to paint one for me. If Madam likes it, I can bring several more."

Jian Wanrong’s eyes widened, "What did you say! Master Qingyun has entrusted you to sell his artwork?"

Lu Jinyuan nodded, "Yes, I helped establish Master Qingyun’s studio."

Jian Wanrong was thrilled, "Then... could you introduce me? I have long admired Master Qingyun, and if I could become friends with him, it would leave no regrets in my life!"

The onlooking members of the Su Family were all slightly touched.

Su Qingyan couldn’t help but snicker to herself.

If she had known earlier how much her mother admired Master Qingyun, she would have revealed Chen Fan’s identity sooner.

Lu Jinyuan laughed heartily, "It’s not difficult for Madam to meet Master Qingyun; he is present here today!"

Jian Wanrong was startled and quickly looked around, "Master Qingyun is attending the birthday banquet? Which one is he?"

Lu Jinyuan walked respectfully up to Chen Fan, gesturing with an invitation, "Master Qingyun!"

Chen Fan stood up with a smile, looked at Jiang Wanrong, "Auntie, had I known you appreciated my paintings this much, I would have painted a few especially for you."

Jiang Wanrong was flabbergasted, "You... you are Master Qingyun? How is this possible!"

The Su Family members were all rendered speechless as well.

Lu Jinyuan said with a smile, "Madam, if you still don’t believe it, you can come with me to the studio to check the credentials. Chen Fan is Master Qingyun, and Master Qingyun is Chen Fan!"

No one present was a fool, and with Lu Jinyuan saying so, there was absolutely no way this could be fake.

Jiang Wanrong looked at Chen Fan, moved, and after a long while, she lowered her head in shame, "I misjudged you, you are worthy of my daughter. I apologize for my earlier attitude!"

Chen Fan was overjoyed and said with a smile, "Auntie, there’s no need to be so formal with me, I understand that all this was your way of testing me."

Jiang Wanrong’s brows relaxed, and she showed Chen Fan a kindly smile, "When you have time, I’d like to discuss painting with you. You can’t refuse."

Chen Fan nodded seriously, "Certainly!"

When Su Qingyan saw that her parents had accepted Chen Fan at this moment, she was extremely happy and cast an admiring gaze toward Chen Fan.

There was nothing that could make one happier than seeing the person they adored shine in front of everyone.

At that moment, Shen Lingdie stood up, "I also like Master Qingyun!"

Su Qingyan immediately pulled her down, "Shut up!"

Shen Lingdie pouted her lips in grievance, "Mean woman."

All members of the Su Family looked at Chen Fan with admiration.

A person who has achieved this level of success in medicine, cultivation, and painting can no longer simply be described as talented.

This is truly a dragon and phoenix among people!

At this very moment, Chen Fan was the center of attention in their eyes!

The only one who was not convinced was Su Hao alone.

His expression was complex as he watched Chen Fan.

In the past, when talking about the Pride of Heaven, the dragon and phoenix among people, everyone thought of him first.

Now that the attention of the entire Su Family was focused on Chen Fan, naturally, this made him discontented.

"Medicine, cultivation, painting, these are just auxiliary skills. In today’s society, power reigns supreme. Only Martial Arts is the true path to heaven."

"I reached a minor achievement in Inner Strength by the age of twenty, and now I’m only half a step away from the Great Achievement in Internal Strength. Once I join Dragon Soul, I can obtain the most top-tier resources. If I get a chance to advance to Grandmaster, it will be like ascending to the heavens in one step."

"Then I will be mingling with those powerful martial arts families, what is Chen Fan in my eyes but a mere trifle."

Su Hao muttered to himself, regaining the pride in his heart that had momentarily wavered because of Chen Fan.

Old Mr. Su felt that everyone had arrived, and it was time to officially start the birthday banquet.

Just at this moment, the servant who had been guarding the entrance of the house once again ran in.

"From the Martial Arts family of Jiangnan, the young miss of the Lu Family of Longhai, Lu Qinghuan, has come to extend birthday wishes to the young miss!"
