Cloud Street.

Lin Fan had already returned for a number of days.

These days, it was getting rather chilly, but for Lin Fan, even though he could feel the cold temperatures, he wasn’t worried. The knowledge of the wuxia was indeed powerful. The cold or hot weathers didn’t daunt him one bit. It helped him to maintain the most comfortable internal temperature.

Wu You Lan stood behind Lin Fan and placed her fingers on the temple of his head. She slowly massaged it. After which, she lowered her head to let down her hair, allowing her scent to surround his nose.

“Brother Lin, the results of the International Art Exhibition should be out soon, right?”

Lin Fan was stunned, “Really? How do you guys know that it’ll be out soon?”

Wu You Lan laughed, “The news is online! The exhibition is today. I’m not sure how it will be.”

Lin Fan laughed, “There shouldn’t be any problems. Didn’t I already paint ten paintings? As long as the audience has nothing wrong with their eyes, then there shouldn’t be any problems.”

With regards to those ten paintings, he had utter faith in himself. If none of them would get the first place, then there really was nothing that could be done.

He had originally wanted to call Zheng Zhong Shan, but after thinking about it, he decided to forget it. It was still night time over at their place and the Art Exhibition hadn’t officially started. They had to wait until it was night time over here in Shanghai before the Art Exhibition would start over there.

“You Lan, your skills have improved! The amount of pressure applied is just nice. Have you been practicing?” Lin Fan laughed. These days were free and easy. Whenever he was tired, Wu You Lan would just give him a massage or rub the temples of his head. It was extremely comfortable.

Moreover, this was exactly the kind of life that Lin Fan wanted. Although having the Encyclopedia and wealth came in handy, he didn’t want to live such a tiring lifestyle. Being able to relax, be free, and do some of his favorite hobbies, those were the most important things.

Receiving the praise from Lin Fan, Wu You Lan gave a very sweet smile, “No, I haven’t! I’ve only watched a few videos on it.”

Lin Fan patted Wu You Lan’s wrist, “Okay, that’s not bad. Keep up the good work!”

“Yes!”

He proceeded to open up Weibo.

The discussion online about the International Art Exhibition was still very intense.

“The exhibition will begin in about ten hours time. I wonder what position our country will be able to clinch this time.”

“It will definitely be a good ranking.”

“It doesn’t seem likely this time. Didn’t you see what happened the previous time around? We were laughed at by many. There doesn’t seem to be much hope this time either.”

“Tsk! Have some confidence in our own country!”

“The President of the Chinese Art Association, Master Zheng Zhong Shan, has impressive art skills. I’m sure it won’t be too bad this time around.”

“Yes, yes. There’s also Yue Qiu Ju Shi and Master Tao Shi Gang. They both have awesome art skills! In the market, their artworks are considered to have great value, but they’re not for sale. It is extremely difficult to get your hands on one of their works.”

“They can be considered true masters, unlike some other masters who flood the market with their worthless artworks.”

“Those artworks can count for nothing. They are only used to promote themselves. However, I really do not know how this year’s International Art Exhibition will be. If the artworks that we submitted for this year is anything like last year’s, then I think there wouldn’t be much hope.”

“Does anybody know which artworks were submitted to the Exhibition? If anyone knows, please say it here!”

“Nope. No one knows until the day of the Exhibition.”

“However, from what I heard, our country has only submitted ten artworks.”

“What? That can’t be. From what I know, there should be at least thirty artworks.”

He closed his Weibo.

Even though there wasn’t a very big influence, there were still people talking about it. The most important thing was that the citizens of the country needed a victory after the many recent internal events that had happened. No matter where this victory came from, it would definitely raise the spirits of the citizens.

This time, it was the International Art Exhibition. Naturally, it was something that the people looked forward to.

Even if they didn’t clinch the first place, they still had to win over some other countries.

He hadn’t started on the task of the sixteenth page of knowledge yet. Right now, he was thinking about one thing – the landscaping knowledge. This wasn’t some kind of law-defying ability. It was considered more of an artistic ability. One that could be used cultivate the capabilities of the children.

For the next few days, he would visit the Children’s Welfare Institute and explain this knowledge to the children. And at the same time, getting the seeds for the landscaping wouldn’t be a problem. They were sold at a very cheap price at the Department Store.

Moreover, those sold at the Department Store weren’t like the common trash that was sold elsewhere.

As for exactly how the seeds would turn out, he had to wait for them to grow before finding out.

At night.

Everyone was in dreamland.

However, it was bustling with noise and excitement over in America. The International Art Exhibition had officially begun.

Zheng Zhong Shan was personally at the event, as well as many other members of the various countries’ Art Associations. At the same time, Lin Fan’s paintings were being transported over. For safety reasons, his paintings were handed over to professional transporters the moment they reached the venue.

This was the first time they had been so serious. They had never been this nervous in the past.

These paintings were personally painted by Master Lin. They were painted on huge canvases with rich scenes. There was a high level of skill involved in these paintings. It could even be said that these paintings were on the same level as National Treasures.

In addition, Zheng Zhong Shan had also told others about these paintings, hoping that they would be able to be displayed in museums. One of the artworks, Along the River During the Qingming Festival, was especially high in research value.

Of course, these artworks belonged to Master Lin. He didn’t have the authority to decide where these paintings would go. However, he had discussed these possibilities with Master Lin before, and Master Lin didn’t seem to have any problems with them. Everything was given to Zheng Zhong Shan to handle.

Occasionally, when Zheng Zhong Shan thought of Lin Fan, he felt embarrassed, but at the same time, he felt touched. This was because Lin Fan had put too much trust into him.

The next day.

The citizens didn’t know what had happened in America while they had been sleeping.

However, the moment they opened their eyes and looked at the news on their phones, they were completely and thoroughly stunned.

‘Good news! At the International Art Exhibition, our Nation’s Chinese Art has stunned many artists from all over the world!’

‘America’s Top Master Helton fainted on the spot after looking at a painting!’

‘Chinese Art has demonstrated extraordinary skill. Artists from all over the world are shocked and calling this impossible!’

‘Oil painting Master Tudor Ford from the Netherlands sighed, calling this painting a revival!’

‘The Chinese Art Association has received the highest number of votes in history!’

‘The Japanese Master Liu Sheng Hai has cried on the spot!’

‘Breaking! The ten paintings at the exhibition were actually all drawn by one man!’

At this moment, the citizens who just woke up rubbed their eyes. What was going on? Did they read it wrong?

These headlines were rather ambiguous. Was the editor sick? Even if he wanted to flatter the nation, he didn’t have to go to such extents.

Online.

“F*ck! What’s going on today? Why is there all this news so early in the morning?”

“Is it real or fake? We clinched the first position in the International Art Exhibition?”

“Holy sh*t! The Masters from other countries fainted and cried? Isn’t such praise going a bit overboard?”

“Proud of my nation!”

“Haha! Awesome! We managed to clinch it!”

“These news articles are all real! My friend over in America told me that when he saw these paintings, he was f*cking shocked.”

“Does your friend have any photos of the paintings? Hurry and let us see what these paintings look like!”

“Hold on, let me ask him.”

“There’s no need to ask. Just look at the trending page on Weibo. The Chinese artworks have already been uploaded there. I swear, when I saw the first painting, I was stunned. But when I saw the tenth painting, I f*cking pissed myself. Who the hell is so awesome?”

“What? Let me go and see!”

At this moment, the netizens online all flared up.

They wanted to know who exactly was the artist.
