After chatting for a while, Xiao Han finally understood that it was not that Lin Xiaowan had improved greatly or rapidly. The competition that Hong Minhua wanted her to participate in was not what he had imagined either. However, this was only natural since the two of them walked different paths.

Lin Xiaowan was different from Xiao Han. She was not doing this for recognition. She was only adding colors to her life by participating in competitions or winning prizes.

Hong Minhua instructed Lin Xiaowan to show her anthropomorphic dessert series to Xiao Han.

The flaws in her painting were obvious. There was not much problem with the details, but the backgrounds were a little bland. She was good at painting the subject, but the backgrounds were quite bland and not eye-catching enough.

Xiao Han commented, “Your use of colors is quite creative.”

For example, for the fruits on the desserts, Lin Xiaowan painted orange strawberries, pink pineapples, purple mangoes, and red avocados. She also mixed several colors together. Each character was vibrant and vivid.

Xiao Han liked her bold use of colors.

After a moment, Xiao Han asked Hong Minhua, “Teacher, are you thinking about letting Junior Sister participate in the Venus Hope Competition?”

The scope of the Venus Hope Competition was very broad, and the rules were not rigid. It was different from professional competitions. Generally, the participants were amateurs. The competition focused on creativity. In short, if one felt that one was creative, one could participate. The winner would be selected based on their creativity.

The Venus Hope Competition was usually held around the new year. It was not even September now so there was still a long time to go.

“You think she’s suitable for that competition as well, don’t you?” Hong Minhua asked.

Xiao Han nodded in agreement. “Junior Sister’s style is indeed suitable for that competition.”

Lin Xiaowan naturally had never heard of the competition before. She listened to the duo talk for a long time in confusion before she asked, “What’s the Venus Hope Competition?”

Lin Xiaowan had no intention of participating in a competition. She did not understand them and was afraid it would be troublesome. Apart from that, she also felt that she was not skilled enough to participate in a competition. This feeling only grew stronger after she saw Xiao Han’s award-winning work.

Xiao Han put his phone down and explained, “The Venus Hope Competition isn’t a professional competition. It’s very casual, and the rules are not rigid at all…”

After that, he showed the works from the previous Venus Hope Competition to Lin Xiaowan on his phone.

“Have a look…”

Lin Xiaowan’s attention was instantly drawn to the prize of the competition. She exclaimed, “Wow! The prize is really good!”

The Venus Hope Competition was funded by a wealthy businessman so it did not lack money. The top three winners of the competition would receive a prize of 300,000 yuan, 200,000 yuan, and 100,000 yuan in cash respectively. Those who won various subsidiary titles would also be rewarded with 10,000 yuan in cash each.

Hong Minhua seized the opportunity and tried to tempt Lin Xiaowan. “It’s not just that. Apart from the cash prize, the first-place winner will also receive a mystery gift.”

Lin Xiaowan’s eyes widened in shock.

‘The prize is too good! Senior Brother Xiao Han said that it’s not a professional competition, but the prize is so amazing! What are the prizes like then for professional competitions? Senior Brother Xiao Han participated in so many competitions. Doesn’t this mean that he had won a lot of money?’

Lin Xiaowan felt a little dizzy, thinking that painting could also be a source of income.

In fact, Lin Xiaowan had a slight misunderstanding. Not every competition was as generous as the Venus Hope Competition. Other competitions were more about recognition.

At this time, Xiao Han said, “It’s called a mystery gift because the gift each year is different…”

The organizers of the Venus Hope Competition would create a poll half a year in advance to decide on the mystery gift. Many people, even those who had no intention of participating in the competition, would vote for the mystery gift to join in the fun.

Just like that, Lin Xiaowan was successfully attracted.

Seeing Lin Xiaowan’s reaction, Hong Minhua knew there was an 80% chance that Lin Xiaowan would participate in the competition.

One of the voting channels for the mystery gift was on Speaker.

Lin Xiaowan looked at the five options that the organizers of the competition had given and marveled at how luxurious they were. When she swiped down to read the comments, she saw many bizarre recommendations as well.

The commenters’ IP addresses would be displayed so Lin Xiaowan could see that the commenters were from all over the world. The comment section was really lively.

Lin Xiaowan was very excited. She decisively clicked on the ‘Other’ option on the poll before she commented, “Fly to the moon to watch a meteor shower!”

At the same time, Gu Yuwu received a notification about a friend’s activity on Speaker. She casually clicked it and saw Lin Xiaowan’s latest activity on Speaker.

Gu Yuwu briefly read about the Venus Hope Competition. After understanding what it was about, she could not help but laugh and left a comment.

[Gu Yuwu: The organizers are asking for suggestions for the prizes, not unrealistic dreams! Hahahahaha!]

After that, she sent a message to Lin Xiaowan, asking the latter why she suddenly voted on the poll and if she intended to participate in the competition.

Meanwhile, Lin Xiaowan, who was making steamed white sugar cakes with Hong Minhua and Xiao Han in the kitchen, did not see Gu Yuwu’s message because her phone was not with her.

Hong Minhua watched as Lin Xiaowan added the sugar in a stingy manner. She said, displeased, “You’re adding too little sugar. Add more for me.”

Lin Xiaowan controlled the amount of sugar she used strictly. She said seriously, “No. You can’t have too much sugar.”

The old lady put her hands on her hips and said, “I’m just going to eat a little. The dosage doesn’t matter.”

Lin Xiaowan remained unmoved. She watched the video and proceeded to the next step as she said, “It doesn’t matter. I’m not going to listen to you.”

Xiao Han, who was helping by the side, could not help but laugh at the duo’s interaction.

Meanwhile, Hong Minhua could only give up. “Fine. After all, since you treat me as your grandma, 1 can only listen to you…”

While they made the desserts, Hong Minhua called Lin Xiaowan using various nicknames such as Little Cutie and Darling. It could be seen that she was very fond of Lin Xiaowan.

After a while, Hong Minhua recalled the blank backgrounds of Lin Xiaowan’s painting so she said, “You should go out more often. Perhaps the scenery will inspire you. Don’t always stay at home..”
