April 8th.
Lin Yuan finally arrived at Qin Art’s Drawing Society.
This is Lin Yuan’s first visit to the society since his return to Qin Art.
As soon as he came in, many people stood up, staring at him intently, and someone asked:
“The GOAT is back. Are we having a class today?”
Lin Yuan shook his head.
He didn’t come today to teach a class.
The crowd was somewhat disappointed, but they did not pester Lin Yuan, their gaze unconsciously followed him…
There is an exhibition wall inside the society, covered with works by the members of the drawing society.
Back when Lin Yuan was still around, his works were often posted on it, but lately, this has not been the case.
Lin Yuan stood in front of the exhibition wall, glanced at the works on it.

He now needed an assistant, an assistant who could truly help him with his drawings.
This assistant must at least have the strength to have his works displayed on the exhibition wall.
The names of the artists were listed under each drawing.
Lin Yuan was familiar with some of them, because some artists were regulars on the exhibition wall, just as Lin Yuan used to have his works hung there from time to time…
“Luo Wei?”
Lin Yuan’s eyes locked onto one of the drawings.
He had taken notice of this Luo Wei a few times before.
She specialized in traditional Chinese painting, and her skills were no weaker than Lin Yuan’s, reaching a professional level!
However, this time, what Luo Wei displayed was not a traditional Chinese painting, but a colored sketch of a character.
A non-realistic style.
This is a typical manga-like character:
A beautiful young girl in a gorgeous long dress with her crown tipped on her head, trailing on the red carpet with indifferent and arrogant facial expression.
The background seems to be a palace.
With finely painted beams and rafters, exquisite tea cups, and the natural rumples in the girl’s dress, the eyes are immediately captivated.
“The President’s painting is really amazing!”
A voice of admiration came from the side, Lin Yuan turned his head and saw that it was Zhong Yu.
“When I heard the GOAT was coming, I came right away.” Zhong Yu explained, laughing.
Lin Yuan nodded and then asked, “Who is the president?”
“Don’t you know, GOAT… Alright, the president rarely comes to the Drawing Society because she always has to retake exams… Of course, you’re not interested in this kind of thing. Luo Wei is the president of us, the Drawing Society.” Zhong Yu introduced.
Lin Yuan nodded in understanding.
Just then, another voice came from the side, lazily and casually: “Who is talking behind my back that I’m always retaking exams? Oh, it’s Zhong Yu, this year I’ve failed only three subjects.”
The words were spoken proudly.
Zhong Yu’s face instantly changed, turned to look at the girl who was speaking, and smiled bitterly, “President Luo, you are so quiet when you walk…”.
“It’s because you were too engrossed in my painting.”
The girl who was speaking had long hair casually draped over her shoulders, a natural melon-seed face, a perky nose, big black eyes, coupled with a tall figure and outstanding figure, she has quite the aura of a straight-haired beauty. Even in an artistic institution like Qin Art, she is among the top in terms of appearance.
The only regret is that there seems to be a black mark on her right cheek.
Those who frequently draw sketches should know that it is left on the face accidentally after wiping their hair and such when doing high-density sketches.
She is Luo Wei, the President of the Drawing Society.
“Your face…”
Zhong Yu kindly reminded her.
Luo Wei was stunned for a moment, then asked a girl behind her for a mirror to check, and then asked for a wet wipe to clean it up.
Then, a flawless beauty appeared.
She looked at Lin Yuan and took the initiative to say, “Hello, I am Luo Wei, I have heard of you a long time ago, and I have always said I wanted to meet you, and today I finally met.”
“Lin Yuan.”
Having introduced himself, Lin Yuan curiously looked at her: “Are you very good at drawing manga?”
Luo Wei confidently said: “I can draw all kinds of paintings, and what about you?”
Lin Yuan said: “Me too.”
Luo Wei raised an eyebrow, but before she could say anything, Lin Yuan suddenly said, “Can you be my manga assistant?”
Whoops…
A strange sound came out from Zhong Yu.
Not only Zhong Yu, many members of the Drawing Society who were paying attention to Lin Yuan and Luo Wei showed astonished expressions.
Lin Yuan actually asked the president to be his assistant?
Doesn’t he know who the president is?
Or Zhong Yu, who was afraid that Lin Yuan would feel embarrassed, couldn’t help but remind him, “GOAT, President Luo is a very famous painter, well-known both online and in the current art scene…”
“Oh.”
Lin Yuan nodded.
Just when everyone thought Lin Yuan was going to give up, it seemed like he had made a somewhat difficult decision and stared at Luo Wei again, asking, “What about a salary of ten thousand Yuan a month?”
People held their foreheads.
Luo Wei laughed, “I can become a mangaka myself. Furthermore, I can earn this amount just by taking any orders online, why should 1 be your ‘manga assistant’?”
Lin Yuan sighed with some regret, “Alright.”
Luo Wei’s painting skills were very high, meeting Lin Yuan’s standard for a manga assistant, but he couldn’t afford her. He could only look for other candidates.
“Actually, I’ve got something to ask you too.”
Luo Wei laughed and looked at Lin Yuan: “Would you like to take over my position and become the president of the Drawing Society?”
“No.”
Lin Yuan decisively shook his head.
He had too much to do, with no time to be the president of the Drawing Society.
But the members of the Drawing Society weren’t too surprised. The presidency of the Drawing Society was indeed a good position, but it was only attractive to ordinary people. It was quite normal that Lin Yuan, being a GOAT, wasn’t interested.
Luo Wei frowned.
Suddenly her eyes lit up, and she said with a hint of seduction in her voice: “But you wanted me to be your manga assistant, right? Why don’t we make a bet?”
