The Little Brat’s Sweet And Sassy - Chapter 650
Chapter 650 She Was Mei Yanqing’s Last Disciple
Hearing her words, everyone present was dumbfounded.
Junior Master Aunt?!
Wang Yan’s master was Yu Pingchuan. He was a renowned oil painting master in the domestic painting circle. His status in the industry could be said to be very important and highly respected.
Yet now, he had actually called Ning Li–
Junior… Master… Aunt?!
Then wouldn’t Ning Li–
Lu Huaiyu’s brows twitched slightly as he turned his head to look at Ning Li.
After a long while, his thin lips curled into a meaningful arc.
The corners of his lips curled into a smile as he slowly spoke.
“So… that means that you’re Teacher Yu’s Junior Sister?”
Ning Li’s eyelashes trembled slightly.
In the dead silent exhibition hall, someone gasped.
Wang Yan’s status was already extremely important, not to mention his teacher, Yu Pingchuan.
Since Ning Li was Wang Yan’s junior aunt, that meant that it confirmed that she was Yu Pingchuan’s junior sister!
That also meant–
“She’s Elder Mei’s disciple?!”
An incredulous murmur came from the crowd.
Elder Mei… Mei Yanqing.
The Chairman of the National Art Association, the founder of the three major schools of Qing, and a true figure of the art world!
“How is this possible… how is this possible?! Elder Mei has had a total of three closed-door disciples. After Yu Pingchuan, he never accepted anyone else. How is it possible for Ning Li to be his disciple?!” “That’s right! Isn’t she only a freshman this year? Isn’t she only 18 years old? How can Elder Mei–“
“But Wang Yan clearly called her Junior Master Aunt just now! How can this be fake?!”
These words finally crushed the many doubts in everyone’s hearts.
Yes, everyone present had clearly heard what Wang Yan had called out earlier!
Look at what kind of status he had! Why would he joke about such a matter?!
Moreover, everyone could see how polite and respectful he was to Ning Li!
Wu Cheng and the others did not speak for a long time. They were completely numb.
This news was so shocking that they did not even have the time to react!
Ning Li lowered her chin slightly, her expression remained indifferent.
“An art gallery obtained a high-quality copy of my painting from some unknown source and put it on public display for auction. I asked them to remove the painting and give me the list of names of the people who had examined the painting. I also asked them to give me the artist’s information. Unfortunately, they rejected it.”
She spoke very slowly and her tone was calm. However, with every word she said, the faces of Wu Cheng and the others turned paler. If Ning Li had just been Tree’s Shadow, it would not have mattered if they had offended
her.
However… she was Mei Yanqing’s disciple!
Who was Mei Yanqing?
He was in charge of the entire Arts Association!
Now that they had offended Ning Li, was it not clear that they were not respecting Elder Mei and were going against the Arts Association?!
Hearing this, Wang Yan frowned as he looked at Wu Cheng
“Wu Cheng, your gallery made such a huge mistake and it should have been dealt with seriously. Junior Master Aunt’s request just now was quite reasonable and sensible, yet you… refused it?”
Cold sweat broke out on Wu Cheng’s forehead.
“No, no! What we meant is that this matter is quite complicated. It might take up a lot of Miss Ning’s time and energy to resolve it…”
Ning Li laughed.
Wu Cheng paused a moment to gulp, before speaking with difficulty. “… But Miss Ning is right. This matter does need to be thoroughly investigated. Our Gallery will definitely cooperate. Don’t worry, Miss Ning. We will arrange the things you’ve asked for and send them to you as soon as possible.” Ning Li stared at him for a few seconds before nodding
“I’m sorry for the trouble.”
Wu Cheng’s mouth was bitter. “It’s… it’s my duty…”
How could he have ever imagined that something like this would happen on the first day after meticulously preparing for the art exhibition?
And it just so happened that the other party was the one person they could not afford to offend!
Only then did Wang Yan let out a slight sigh of relief. He looked at Ning Li.
“Junior Master Aunt, would you still like to continue to have a look at the art exhibition?”
Ning Li shook her head.
“No, thank you.”
Her reason for coming here today had been for that fake painting
Now that the matter had been resolved, there was no longer any need for her to stay here.
Wang Yan felt that this was for the best. He did not want to continue being angry here. “Then allow me to send you off–“
Before the sentence could be finished, Ning Li’s phone vibrated.
She took it out and took a look. It was a call from Yu Pingchuan.
She picked it up, but before she could speak, she heard Yu Pingchuan’s voice.
“Ah Li, where are you now?”
Ning Li heard that the tone of his voice was a little off.
“I’m in an art gallery. What’s wrong?”
Yu Pingchuan immediately heaved a sigh of relief and pleaded for help.
“So you have the time, right? Then please hurry and come to the hospital! Master is shouting that he wants to be discharged again! We can’t persuade him otherwise anymore!”
Ning Li pressed the space between her brows helplessly.
After Mei Yanqing’s surgery, his body had recovered quite well. For the past few days, he had been shouting that he wanted to be discharged from the hospital. He said that the hospital was suffocating. Yu Pingchuan and the others had tried to persuade him several times to stay in the hospital for an observation period. He could then be discharged after he had completely healed, but he did not listen.
It sounded like he was quarreling about the same issue again today.
“Alright, I’ve got it. Tell him that I’ll be there right away.”
After Ning Li said that, she hung up the phone.
Wang Yan asked, “Junior Aunt, are you going to the hospital?”
“Yes, Master is asking to be discharged again.” Ning Li put away her phone.
Wang Yan recalled Mei Yanqing’s temper, and the corner of his mouth twitched.
“Then, then Junior Aunt, take care on your way there. I won’t send you off then.” Ning Li nodded.
Lu Huaiyu suddenly said, “I’ll go with you.” Ning Li was stunned and she looked up at him.
Lu Huaiyu raised his eyebrows. “Didn’t we say that we would visit Elder Mei together when we got the chance?”
Ning Li coughed lightly, “… Okay.”
As she spoke, she turned around and was about to walk out of the door.
The people around immediately made way for her.
Only two people did not move– Sheng Ruxue and Shang Wenwen.
The two of them were clearly still dazed from what had just happened.
Ning Li took a step forward.
“Excuse me.”
The two of them quickly came back to their senses.
Shang Wenwen subconsciously took two steps back, and Sheng Ruxue’s expression changed dramatically.
Her pale lips moved, as if she wanted to say something
However, her neck seemed to have been tightly gripped by something, and she could not say a word.
Wang Yan waved his hand.
“Ruxue, why are you just standing there? Address her properly!” Sheng Ruxue’s face instantly turned even paler.
Address her for what??
Ning Li was a year younger than her!
The corners of Ning Li’s lips curled up as she said casually,
“Uncle Yan is stubborn. Don’t mind him. Just call my name like before.”
Sheng Ruxue’s throat felt dry.
Ning Li, however, seemed to be too lazy to argue about it. She turned her head to look at Lu Huaiyu.
“Second Brother.”
Lu Huaiyu stepped forward with a smile and held her hand.
“Let’s go. We shouldn’t keep Elder Mei waiting.”
With that, the two of them left hand in hand, leaving behind a group of people who were still in shock.
Walking out of the gallery, Ning Li saw the familiar black Panamera.
The two of them got into the car together.
Fang Qingyun was pleasantly surprised to see Ning Li. “Ah Li, did you come here to see this art exhibition as well?”
Lu Huaiyu looked at her with a wry smile.
Ning Li, “… Ahem, yes.”
Fang Qingyun did not notice the subtle atmosphere between the two of them and happily asked, “Then shall we go back together today? The old man is–“
“Uncle Fang, we’re going to the First Affiliated Hospital of Xijing University.”
Lu Huaiyu leaned back and lazily said, “It’s been so long. It’s time to visit Elder Mei.”
