Chapter 56: The Whole Family Fighting For Attention
Suddenly, Shen Hanxing thought of something. "Oh right, I accompanied Xiao Ning to her violin class today and got to know Maestro Lin Ran’s parents." Shen Hanxing smiled and said, "Old Master Lin promised to teach you how to draw. When we go to Maestro Lin Ran’s house next week, you should come along too, Xiao Mo."
After she came back, she specially looked up the elderly couple’s information. That was when she found out just how shocking their identities were. The numerous awards on their Baidu Encyclopedia pages made her speechless.
Shen Hanxing was very satisfied to be able to find such a suitable teacher for Ji Mo.
Ji Mo’s eyes flashed with a complicated light. The feeling in his heart was strange and complex. He subconsciously asked softly, "Sister-in-law, you know that I like to draw?"
"Aren’t you always drawing when you’re resting?" Shen Hanxing nodded very naturally. She said matter-of-factly, "I’ve seen your sleeves stained with paint several times. I guess you were too engrossed in drawing and didn’t see it on your clothes. This time, I coincidentally met a suitable teacher and got them to guide you."
She said it very simply, as if finding a teacher was a small matter that couldn’t be more convenient. However, the person she mentioned was the famous artist, Old Master Lin. He was the role model of countless people who had spent their entire lives learning to draw. Many people had tried their best to get his guidance, but they couldn’t even get a single word in, much less become his student.
Ji Mo suddenly thought of his own biological mother. That woman had never cared about what he liked or disliked. She would only urge him to fight for more family assets to take care of her retirement. That woman only cared about herself, she would never trouble herself to find a teacher for a little hobby of his.
The more understated Shen Hanxing’s attitude was, the more complicated the hearts of the Ji brothers and sisters became. What price had she paid and what method had she used to make Old Master Lin, who did not accept students, agree to guide Ji Mo?
