Chapter 160 I'm Not As Stupid As Her The next morning, the results of Guangzhou Academy of Fine Arts' "Bai Shi Cup" painting exhibition were finally announced. Yu Xian failed the exam. After Yu Xian found out, apart from being a little disappointed that he didn't get the bonus, he didn't take this kind of honor very seriously. She participated in the competition firstly to improve her skills and break through the bottleneck, and secondly to win the prize money. Yu Baibai herself is not a girl with a strong ambition for career. Maybe in her future life, it is just like this picture: She wore a cute little skirt and went shopping hand in hand with Chen Zhuo. After returning home, Chen Zhuo was playing games while she cooked a few dishes, some spicy and some not, because Director Chen could not eat spicy food very well. After eating, the two of them snuggled on the sofa and watched TV. While Chen was resting, she could do some laundry and water the rose pot that Director Chen gave her on the balcony. This is the rose garden. How could he really enclose a piece of land to plant roses? Yu Xian couldn't bear to go through so much hard work. Growing flowers on the balcony was already romantic enough. "Last time he won second prize, but this time he's not even third prize?!"
However, her best friend Wu Yu was very dissatisfied. Even if all the students taking part in the exhibition had taken it seriously, they should have no problem getting the third prize. After Yu Xian finished painting that day, his eyes were red, and it was obvious that he was immersed in the emotion. His performance was definitely better than last time. “I don’t even know how the school is rated!” Wu Yu said unhappily, "Should we go find Professor Guan and Principal Tong and ask if someone is deliberately trying to trip us up again?" "Don't go." Yu Xian shook his head. It would be better to take a few more classes in the institution with this time. But even so, without the bonus, it seems that it is not enough to buy a new phone on my birthday. "Hey~" Yu Xian sighed quietly. It seemed that Director Chen would have to use the domestically made Haier for a while longer. At this moment, Yu Xian suddenly received a call from Vice Principal Tong Lan, asking her to come and see her. After Yu Xian arrived at the office, Tong Lan didn't beat around the bush and said, "The quality of your work is definitely good enough to win a second prize in this kind of competition, but the reason you were not awarded is that there are some problems with your creative thinking." Tong Lan took the responsibility for the cancellation of the award to prevent her junior sister from blaming the teacher. However, the creative thinking of this painting may involve the understanding of art by fellow student Fei Yueming. Tong Lan did not want to comment too much, but just picked up a cowhide notebook with both hands and handed it over: "This is Teacher Guan's thing. She asked me to pass it to you. If you look at it carefully, you may be able to find out what the problem is with this painting." "Professor Guan's?" Yu Xian stood up and took it, and suddenly felt his arm sink. He didn't expect it to be so heavy. No wonder Principal Tong had to use both hands to lift it. Yu Xian flipped through the notebook curiously, and saw four words on the cover of the notebook: study hard and practice diligently. It seems that this is not only Guan Yongyi's self-requirement, but also her attitude towards academic research. Having talent is one thing, but on the other hand, hard work is also required. There are many photos in the notebook, some of which are from China and some are from abroad, including natural attractions and collections from art museums. Generally, photography is not allowed in these collections, but Professor Guan obviously has his own way.
Next to these photos, there are lines of beautiful small characters, recording Guan Yongyi's comments on these precious collections and the landscapes. Some famous paintings are so classic that she spent several pages analyzing them from various angles, with some notes next to them, which are obviously the insights she added after she had new understandings at different times. Yu Xian was no fool and he immediately understood the value of this notebook. It was the experience summary of a national second-level professor. This kind of value cannot be measured by money. It is the kind that money cannot buy. "The teacher really likes you. Normally, she is not willing to let us see this note." Tong Lan smiled and said, "Don't refuse. If you can learn something from it, it will be considered that the teacher's hard work has not been wasted." Yu Xian nodded. She didn’t quite understand why the old lady who always mocked her when they met was suddenly so nice to her. "While watching more, you also need to practice more." Tong Lan reminded her again: "The teacher is busy with many things related to the Olympics this year, and will only be free in the second half of next year. But that doesn't mean she will ignore you completely. If she finds that your level has stagnated after a month, be careful or she will scold you!" When talking about "scolding", Tong Lan, who is already the vice-president, still has some lingering fears. It is obvious that she has many shadows in this aspect of her life. "If she scolds me, I'll just let her go a little." Yu Xian is a typical Sichuanese who is soft-hearted and not hard-hearted. If someone acts arrogantly and unreasonably in front of her, she will not tolerate it. But if the other party says something soft or apologizes to her, she generally won't care. Yu Xian originally felt that he and Professor Guan were incompatible and would quarrel almost every time they met. But when he saw that the old lady gave him such an important thing, Yu Baibai felt that since she was so old, even if she was unreasonable, he should be more tolerant. Seeing that the stubborn little sister finally gave in, Tong Lan felt a little happy. Last time, Yu Xian would rather tear up her work and bear the punishment for the sake of her own reputation. Tong Lan knew that this little sister who looked charming and sexy was actually extremely fierce and strong-willed. Teacher Guan actually has the same personality, which is probably why she fell in love with Yu Xian the first time she saw him. "If I can ease the relationship between the old and the young, maybe Teacher Guan will scold me less." Tong Lan was so happy that she took out a new Nokia phone and handed it over. Seeing the confusion in Yu Xian's eyes, Tong Lan explained: "Last time you said you would use the bonus to buy a mobile phone for your boyfriend. Now the bonus is gone, and Teacher Guan said he would give you a mobile phone." Yu Xian didn't answer. Tong Lan thought she was worried and said with a smile, "You don't have to worry about Teacher Guan spending money herself. At her level, she doesn't have to pay for almost everything. This should be a gift from the distributor in East Guangdong." "Then neither do I!" Yu Xian refused crisply: "Gifts for boyfriends are only meaningful if you earn your own money to buy them. What's wrong with using other people's money as gifts?" "There is no money now, so let him wait." Yu Xian stood up, holding his notebook, and said to Tong Lan, "Senior Sister, I'm going back first." Tong Lan was stunned for a while, watching Yu Xian's briskly leaving back, and sent a message to the teacher. Tong Lan: Teacher Guan, my junior sister didn’t ask for a cell phone.
Guan Yongyi: What about the notes? Tong Lan: She took it away. Guan Yongyi: That’s good, just don’t want the phone. With such a pedantic head, she deserves to keep using a broken phone. Tong Lan: Actually...she really looks like you. Guan Yongyi: I’m not as stupid as her! ······ (End of this chapter)
