Chapter 143: Qin Yuqiao Wants to Show off in Front of Zi Yi
The trio rode the school bus and headed straight for the Academy of Fine Arts.
The Metropolis University’s Academy of Fine Arts was a world-famous institution and those who were admitted were all the best in the creative circles.
“The Academy of Fine Arts holds an exhibition every quarter. Xiangling, I recalled that you won the championship every quarter when you studied here in the past. How is the classmate who is often ranked behind you?”
“You mean Pei Ling? He went to F Country’s Academy of Fine Arts.”
Dou Xiangling said to Zi Yi, “Yiyi, at the exhibition later, you can look around freely. If you fancy something, you can tell me.”
Zi Yi nodded.
They did not have to walk long before they came to a tall, red dome building, which was modeled after a tsar russian rooftop.
There was a crowd of people walking towards the entrance while engaged in a conversation. The moment the trio appeared, Zi Yi and Dou Xiangling had immediately become the focus of attention.
“Oh god, isn’t that Senior Dou, the goddess of XX? She actually came back?”
“I wonder if Senior Dou will open an exhibition this time around. I love her paintings very much!”
“Me too~”
“Who’s that girl standing beside Senior Dou? She’s so beautiful!”
…
The trio followed along the direction of the crowd and walked in.
There were many who greeted Dou Xiangling along the way and they could not help but sneak a peek at Zi Yi.
The interior of the building had a large space and it was divided into many areas. Each area is only separated by half a wall.
There were already quite a number of people inside. Other than students, there were also contestants, teachers, and professors.
The moment Dou Xiangling entered, she said to Zi Yi, “Yiyi, you can take a look around first. I’ll go and greet my mentor.”
“Ok.”
Before she left, she was a little uneasy and so, she said to Qin Yuqiao, “Yuqiao, help me take good care of Yiyi.”
Qin Yuqiao smiled and assured her. “Xiangliang, you can rest assured that I will take good care of Yiyi.”
Only then, did Dou Xiangling feel reassured enough to leave.
Qin Yuqiao had intentions to get closer with Zi Yi and naturally, she would try her best to express her goodwill.
“Yiyi, let’s check out the paintings together. Do you have a certain style you like?”
“No.”
The both of them headed over to a corner.
In order to increase her sense of existence before Zi Yi, Qin Yuqiao acted as a commentator while they walked around. The way she explained was clear and logical.
Zi Yi suddenly asked her after she heard some of her explanations, “You also major in art?”
Qin Yuqiao was stunned for a moment before she smiled. “No, I major in design, but I have studied art. After all, many aspects in designing require drawing.”
Zi Yi nodded and the both of them continued to walk around.
Zi Yi looked around for a short while and stopped at a painting.
The name of the painting was <Gap>. Half of the painting was busy streets, while an old alley was drawn on the other half. In fact, there were not many distinguishing features between the two walkways. The most prominent trait would be the cat standing at the intersection. On the bustling street, the cat’s fur was clean and glowing, whereas the cat on the old street alley was dirty.
There was a crowd in front of the painting. Everyone was commenting on it, saying that it was well painted.
Seeing that Zi Yi was looking at it, she had the thought of wanting to show off in front of her. Therefore, she asked, “Yiyi, do you like this painting?”
“No.”
Zi Yi walked away after replying.
Qin Yuqiao hastily followed up to her. “Why? I think it’s painted pretty well.”
She subconsciously wanted to show off as she said, “That painting…”
Zi Yi suddenly stopped walking and interrupted her. “The finishing touches of that painting should have been on the two cats. However, the painter did not draw out the expressions within their eyes. Both cats’ eyes were dull. What’s good about it?”
“Erm…”
