Chapter 168 What a touching scene of mother and daughter's love!
That expression, that tone, those words—no one who isn't familiar with you would react like that.
For a moment, everyone was speechless.
Yan Dong arrogantly laughed out loud in public.
How dare these people treat their Third Master's woman so disrespectfully?
They're all reckless.
She had heard her older brother talk about Song Beiyou's relationship with the Mu and Zong families.
So much so that when he saw the Mu family members in front of him, his eyes were filled with disdain.
Of course, there was not only disdain, but also worry.
They were worried that Zong Lanfang's every move would affect Miss Song's mood.
After all, Zong Lanfang's words have been quite barbed from the moment they started until now.
The atmosphere at the scene became strange.
I've already said it, who doesn't know Ji Rufeng?
The elder brother of Ji Anzhi, the president of Beijing University, is a leading figure in the Chinese art world.
He frequently appears on various art appreciation programs.
As soon as he came out, everyone recognized him.
Seeing the scene before her, Mu Niannian felt something was wrong and had a strong urge to leave.
Unfortunately, it was too late. Who says women are inferior to men? Yan Dong, one person, was equal to ten strong men, and surrounded them tightly.
Upon seeing this, the lady accompanying them muttered to herself, "What's going on? Why did they call this master out as well?"
It seems they have a good relationship with this Miss Song.
"Madam Mu, what's going on?"
"Could your adopted daughter really be an artist, you just don't know it?"
That's a pretty sarcastic remark.
Zong Lanfang subconsciously exchanged a glance with Mu Niannian.
Mu Niannian looked innocent, indicating that she knew nothing about it.
Just then, Song Beiyou spoke up again, "Please tell me, Teacher Ji, who is Miss Mu Qianyun, also known as Dong Buyu?"
Are the works she's exhibiting and selling today her own, or are they plagiarized from others?
Mu Qianyun was genuinely excited.
She never expected that someone of her status would receive Song Beiyou's attention time and time again.
This is Master Ji Rufeng, her idol.
The fact that Song Beiyou's sister was able to call him out suggests that the two are quite close.
As she pondered this, something even more shocking happened the next second.
Ji Rufeng actually said in front of everyone, especially in front of her adoptive mother Zong Lanfang and her former sister Mu Niannian, "Dong Buyu is my last disciple and also one of the important members of our painting association."
Her ancient painting restoration skills are evident to all members of our painting association. I never imagined that they would be labeled as plagiarism by you women.
Why not also question me, the master, while we're at it?
"By the way, I plagiarized too. Call me a bad influence, like father, like son!"
Ji Rufeng was a playful old man, fearless of anything, and naturally didn't care whose daughter-in-law or daughter Zong Lanfang was.
They are not afraid of offending anyone when they speak.
Mu Qianyun was shocked; she wasn't Ji Rufeng's last disciple.
She's nothing special; she just works part-time at some small antique restoration shops and as a teaching assistant at some art studios.
Why did the master say that this season?
Thinking of this, she looked at Song Beiyou.
When she saw Song Beiyou wink at her, she understood everything.
My heart felt completely filled, warm and incredibly safe.
It turns out that Song Beiyou specially invited Master Ji Rufeng to help her clear her name.
Mu Qianyun wasn't the only one shocked; those who were watching and waiting for the outcome were equally stunned.
No one expected that Mu Qianyun, whom Zong Lanfang and Mu Niannian accused of plagiarizing others' work, was Ji Rufeng's closed-door disciple.
Ji Rufeng's character is widely known.
He's not stupid; he would never hire someone who lacks ability to train.
Therefore, it was Mu Niannian and her group who were slandering Mu Qianyun from beginning to end!
Absolutely!
Thinking of this, many people began to sympathize with Mu Qianyun, who was unable to speak and defend herself.
If Song Beiyou hadn't appeared, this girl would have had no way to argue her point.
Ultimately, they will become infamous throughout the art world and suffer a complete defeat.
People in the crowd started talking again, expressing their sympathy for Mu Qianyun.
Some even looked at Zong Lanfang and her daughter Mu Niannian with suspicion, saying, "I don't know what these two are up to, that they would be so vicious as to try to ruin a poor girl who can't speak."
Zong Lanfang and Mu Niannian felt their faces burning with embarrassment, unsure whether to leave or stay.
Mu Niannian lowered her voice, looking extremely aggrieved and frightened, and leaned down next to Zong Lanfang, "Mom, is it my fault?"
It must be. I'm so sorry, I misjudged my sister.
That's why you're in such a difficult position, Mom.
"Mom, I'm going to apologize to my sister."
After saying that, she actually started doing it, but Zong Lanfang couldn't bear to let her go and grabbed her, saying, "Mom, come here."
What a touching scene of mother and daughter's love!
It wasn't obvious, after all, Mu Niannian was trying her best to lower her voice, but Song Beiyou still caught it clearly.
A sarcastic smile flickered at the corners of her mouth.
In an instant, Zong Lanfang truly "lowered her status" and stepped forward to Mu Qianyun, saying, "Qianyun, I'm sorry, we misunderstood you."
I didn't expect you to be so promising, managing to become Master Ji's apprentice.
Okay, I hope you can stay true to yourself from now on. I believe there won't be any more conflicts between us.
Mu Qianyun received Zong Lanfang's strange-sounding apology and, using sign language, said, "I accept your apology."
I hope that if you and Madam ever meet again on your journey, you will not cross paths again.
After gesturing this last sentence, fearing that the people present might not understand, she took out her phone and typed out a row of the same scrolling text.
Mu Qianyun did this entirely because she didn't want to waste the opportunity Song Beiyou had created for her, and she wanted to stand up for herself.
Song Beiyou was very satisfied and gave Yan Dong a look.
Yan Dong stopped stopping Zong Lanfang and the others, and as soon as he let go, they left with very unpleasant expressions.
Before leaving, Zong Lanfang glanced at Mu Qianyun and then at Song Beiyou.
His eyes clearly showed dissatisfaction.
But there was nothing they could do; under the watchful eyes of everyone, they had no choice but to leave.
Once the person left, the staff eased the tension.
The scene was restored to its original state.
Mu Qianyun then looked at Song Beiyou gratefully, nodding and bowing repeatedly, "Thank you for finding Elder Ji, thank you both."
Song Beiyou helped her up. "It's because your ancient painting restoration skills have been discovered by Elder Ji. He is genuinely interested in taking you on as his apprentice. It all depends on what you say."
Mu Qianyun couldn't believe what she was hearing and looked at Ji Rufeng.
Ji Rufeng nodded. "Youyou told me a few days ago that I had someone investigate you for several days and you do indeed meet my criteria for accepting disciples."
It all depends on whether you're willing or not.
Overwhelmed with joy, Mu Qianyun couldn't possibly refuse and nodded vigorously.
After becoming an apprentice, Ji Rufeng had to leave.
Looking at Mu Qianyun, who was in an excellent mood, Song Beiyou asked another bombshell question, "Have you ever thought about being able to talk properly like everyone else?"
