Chapter 80 – Authentic Work From Luo-shen!
Edited by Effe
Yan Yiren looked disapprovingly. These two old men must have made an error in their judgement due to their failing eyesight!
In the end, if there was no evidence, Xing Luo would still lose her face!
Huang Zhizhi said, “There was a saying that said ‘beauty lies in the bone and not the skin’. Luo-shen’s painting is not something that can be copied. This is also why it was rare to find Luo-shen’s counterfeit paintings in the market even when he is so famous.
Even if they could copy the appearance of the painting, they would fail to copy the artistic mood and conception that lies within the painting! With that, anyone can tell if a painting is a counterfeit or not with just a glance!”
Huang Zhizhi pointed at 《Three Thousand Worlds》, “You all think this is a counterfeit product but aren’t you also attracted by the artistic conception within this painting? Then I would like to ask, besides Luo-shen, who else could have produced such a painting that was full of artistic conception?”
Li Jinshan went on to say, “The paper that Luo-shen used to paint was called ‘Sanmian Bingxian’. It is a very rare and special material that is not circulated in the market at all. Only Luo-shen used this type of paper. It was said that ‘Sanmian Bingxian’ was not afraid of fire and there was also a layer hidden in the middle of the painting. Luo-shen wrote his name on this hidden layer. However, under normal circumstances, his name will not be visible. His name will only appear when it is reflected on the water!”
Huang Zhizhi added, “To know if this is authentic or not, we will know after a try. I wonder if Mr Mu agrees with this or not?”
Mu Hanqi was silent for a moment and nodded solemnly.
“If it’s the real thing, we can’t just let it be buried like that. If it’s a counterfeit, even if it is burned, it is not worth a pity.”
Fang Linzhi looked at a servant and ordered, “Bring over a basin of water and a lighter.”
“Yes!”
After a while, the servant brought a basin of water to the front of the easel and handed the lighter to Huang Zhizhi.
Huang Zhizhi tilted the painting slightly so that it was reflected on the water…..
Everyone stared at the water. After seeing it clearly, the audience was silent for an instant………..
On the water surface where the painting should be reflected, they did not see the painting. Instead, it was replaced with a single character, ‘Luo’………
But when they looked at the painting again, it obviously still looked the same but the reflection on the water was just one character ‘Luo’!
Looking at this scene, the proud expression on Yan Yiren’s face instantly froze…..
How could this be possible……..
Afterwards, Huang Zhizhi placed the painting back to its original position. He lit the lighter and tried to burn the corner of the painting with it.
After half a minute, the painting was still unscathed and there was not even a slight change…..
The whole audience was dead silent….
A deep shock appeared in Yan Yiren’s eyes and her expression became increasingly unpleasant!
It was authentic….
This painting turned out to be an authentic work from Luo-shen!
How could Xing Luo get her hands on such a precious thing!
“My God! It turned out to be authentic!”
“Am I dreaming……..to be able to view Luo-shen’s work at such a close proximity in this life!”
“This Xing Luo is truly amazing!”
“I almost misunderstood her! She’s too amazing! She actually managed to get her hands on Luo-shen’s painting!”
“Old Master Mu, you really are blessed to have such an outstanding granddaughter! I’m so envious of you!”
“Hahaha! Good granddaughter, you are the pride of grandpa!”
Mu Hanqi laughed happily while touching Xing Luo’s head.
Fang Linzhi also smiled, “You are also grandma’s pride!”
Pei Qingzhan breathed a sigh of relief, but he also sighed in his heart. Xing Luo’s changes were too great and he almost didn’t recognize her…….
The atmosphere was very exciting, but Yan Yiren said with a green face.
“How did my little sister get this painting? How precious and rare is Luo-shen’s painting? Luo-shen’s temperament is also extremely weird. Even when the president went to request for a painting, he didn’t give him any face. Even when you got money, there was no guarantee that you would be able to buy it. Although you are kind, don’t do anything stupid because of this.”
In other words, maybe Xing Luo and Luo-shen had reached a shameful agreement.
That was, she slept with him.
