Chapter 482 - Painting was Ridiculed China is Disgusting?
Jun Shiling ate his lunch tastelessly when his phone suddenly rang. Seeing that it was Xia Wanyuan, he hurriedly pressed the answer button.
There was a smile on Jun Shiling’s lips, but his tone was a little awkward. “What’s wrong? You have time to call me when you’re eating with your Brother Wei?”
“Jun Shiling, that’s enough.” Xia Wanyuan’s helpless voice came from the phone. “Don’t be in a hurry to eat. I’ll be arriving at the office soon. Wait for me to eat together.”
“Oh, you only thought of me after you don’t want to eat with your Brother Wei?” Jun Shiling said sourly.
“Alright, I’ll go back then.”
“No, no, no. I was wrong, baby. I’m not eating anymore. I’ll wait for you.” Hearing that Xia Wanyuan was going back, Jun Shiling could not hold it in anymore.
Not long after, Xia Wanyuan arrived at the office.
In Jun Shiling’s office, there had not been any snacks or drinks for more than a decade. However, ever since Xia Wanyuan appeared, there were all sorts of snacks in the fridge in the office all year round.
Just as Xia Wanyuan sat down, Jun Shiling brought an ice-cold watermelon to Xia Wanyuan’s mouth. “Have a bite. It’s hot outside, right?”
Xia Wanyuan took a bite. “This watermelon is so sweet.”

“Really?” Jun Shiling leaned forward and exchanged a simple kiss with Xia Wanyuan. “It’s indeed quite sweet.”
Xia Wanyuan glared at Jun Shiling coquettishly. “It got sour after you ate it.”
“Hmph.” Thinking of Wei Zimu made Jun Shiling unhappy.
“CEO Jun, come and hug me.” Xia Wanyuan smiled and reached out to Jun Shiling. Jun Shiling glanced at Xia Wanyuan helplessly, but in the end, he still reached out to hug and kiss her.
After eating, the unhappiness in Jun Shiling’s heart had long disappeared under Xia Wanyuan’s coquettish behavior. “Where’s your painting?”
“What painting?” Xia Wanyuan was reading and did not understand what Jun Shiling was talking about.
“The one you drew for me.” Thinking of the picture of “King Looks at the World”, Jun Shiling’s heart surged with warmth.
“I used it to participate in the competition. The organizer said that they would send the painting back after three months.”
“Three months?” Jun Shiling frowned.
Hearing Jun Shiling’s question, Xia Wanyuan finally reacted to Jun Shiling’s thoughts. She looked away from the book. “I’ll contact them later and see if I can get the painting back as soon as possible. If I really can’t get it back, I’ll draw another one for you.”
“No, I want that one.” Jun Shiling was very persistent.
“Why?”
“That was the first painting you drew for me. That one is different.”
Stunned by Jun Shiling’s words, Xia Wanyuan put down her book. “I’ll contact them now.”
According to the procedure, these award-winning photos would be authorized by the competition authorities to be placed in the exhibition hall in Cherry Blossoms for everyone to admire for three months.
Yuan Wanxia was the owner of the painting. It was not a problem for her to take it away in advance. However, she needed to complete the withdrawal procedures step by step.
However, neither the exhibition hall nor the competition staff had expected that Yuan Wanxia’s “King Looks at the World” would be so popular in just a few days.
Not only did professionals like it, but they felt that the painting technique was used well. Although amateur hobbyists did not know any professional technique, the aura contained in this painting shocked them. Every day, countless people came to the exhibition hall to look at this painting.
When they heard that the painting “King Looked at the World” was going to be withdrawn, it instantly aroused everyone’s displeasure. Many people, who had been preparing to look at it because of its reputation, heard that the painting was going to be withdrawn, and they all asked the exhibition hall to refund the ticket.
More and more people refunded the tickets. In the end, it triggered a series of reports on foreign news websites. This painting that was sent from the China Qing University newspaper to attend the International Youth Painter Exchange finally attracted the attention of the foreign painting and calligraphy world.
They had organized so many youth calligraphy and painting exchanges, but they had never seen a piece of work that could cause such a huge impact in the exhibition hall of Cherry Blossom Country.
After all, this exhibition hall was considered one of the top ten in Cherry Blossom. It contained the works of many famous masters.
Meanwhile, this piece of work that came out of the youth exchange could actually suppress the limelight of so many masters. The people in the painting and calligraphy world were very puzzled.
Some painters rushed to the exhibition hall before the paintings were withdrawn.
At this glance, they were stunned.
That night, a somewhat famous painter in Cherry Blossom uploaded the painting “King Looks at the World” in Fins and tagged the official account of the “International Youth Painter Exchange”.
“This exchange is extremely unfair. It’s hard to imagine that China is actually so shameless. It’s impossible for this sharp brushstroke to be so experienced without decades of practice. The rankings for this exchange can’t be counted at all. China is really disgusting. They call themselves a civilized ancient country, but because they can’t win the championship, they found a master’s work to pretend to be a young person. It’s really despicable..”
