Chapter 1880 Abstract Art
Gong Jin'an's voice on the phone sounded ruthless, cold, and hysterical.
"I'm not asking you to go bankrupt to pay for my wedding. I'm just asking you to sell the house that was originally meant for me as our wedding home. Why won't you agree to that?"
"As parents, shouldn't we do our best to make our children happy? Why are you different?"
"Fine, fine, I'll remember this. You'll be begging me for help someday!"
Since then, Gong Jin'an has never called them again.
Lin Xiangxue and Gong Qiang cried together in the middle of the night. The next day, after wiping away their tears, they pretended that they had never given birth to a son.
The heart aches, and slowly... it becomes numb.
Parents' love for their children can also grow cold. After being hurt many times, even the most selfless love will eventually be worn away.
Therefore, Lin Xiangxue can now talk about this matter with Shen Xi in a calm and collected tone, without even getting teary-eyed.
But Shen Xi knew that this disappointment in her son would actually stay with her for life.
After all, that's a child they've raised for over twenty years. How could they just give up on him like that? If Gong Jin'an regrets it later and comes back to Hecheng to apologize to his parents, she feels that Lin Xiangxue and Gong Qiang themselves might not be able to guarantee that they could truly ignore their son and pretend they never had him.
However, that's a matter for the future.
There's no need for people to worry unnecessarily about things that haven't happened yet.
On the other hand, Shen Xi wasn't very optimistic about Guan Yongyan and Gong Jin'an's relationship.
Because the Guan family elders are too materialistic, if they discover that the Gong family won't help Gong Jin'an at all, and that all the villas and luxury cars will be just a pipe dream, and that marrying Guan Yongyan to Gong Jin'an will not only bring them no benefit, but will also mean supporting an extra son-in-law, then... Gong Jin'an's days of heartbreak are probably numbered.
Want to get married? Haha, you can't even date.
After all, the Guan family probably didn't want to find a son-in-law to live with them.
They use the slogan of gender equality to practice the role of live-in sons-in-law. They want everything, but they don't want to take on any responsibility.
When it comes to spending money, the Gong family has to be present; when it comes to making contributions, they have to act like they're dead and stay out of the way.
How could such a cunning family accept Gong Jin'an, who has nothing to offer?
Besides, his so-called stable job is just a temporary one.
If you can't even support yourself, how can you start a family?
Just wait and see, Gong Jin'an and Guan Yongyan won't make it. If Lin Xiangxue and the others can hold out without offering any benefits...
So far, it seems that both the teacher and his wife have held on.
Yes, Shen Xi came over for a meal, and my heart, which had been pounding, finally settled down.
She had been worried that her teacher and his wife would be devastated and never recover, but now it seems she was overthinking it.
Lin Xiangxue has come to terms with it.
"Children are all debts. Some children come to repay kindness, while others come to seek revenge. Lao Gong and I have come to terms with it. We raised him and taught him well. If he didn't take the right path, we can't blame him."
"We have fulfilled our obligations and have a clear conscience."
Okay, they've come to their senses, that's good.
Shen Xi stopped talking about it and left it to time; every problem will have an optimal solution in the future.
However, it's unclear what Caibao and Chen Chuan are doing right now.
What are you doing?
Of course, we should go to the art exhibition.
Land in Hong Kong is incredibly valuable; to imagine holding an art exhibition in a spacious, plaza-like exhibition hall like those on the mainland is simply a pipe dream.
I prefer these smaller, more flexible art galleries here.
Take Leo's exhibition, "Sparks of Life," for example. It was held in a private club, and Leo only agreed to exhibit his paintings in his friend's gallery after the organizers, upon learning that he was a friend of Leo's, strongly urged him to do so.
Leo is a newly emerging stream-of-consciousness abstract painter in recent years. He is very good at using rich colors and lines to express emotions, which evokes resonance and emotion in the audience.
I've heard that his paintings are full of emotion, vibrant with life, and incredibly moving; many people are moved to tears when they see them.
Should I cry?
Caibao and his father stood silently in front of a huge painting.
Cai Bao was very serious, while Chen Chuan remained calm.
Fang Shiyou and Wen Ying, standing behind them, exchanged bewildered glances.
Fang Shiyou: "Did you understand?"
Wen Ying shook her head blankly: "What about you?"
"I do not have either."
Sigh... They both sighed at the same time; it seems they don't have much artistic talent either.
Wen Ying asked, "Do you think Master understood it?"
good question.
"Of course he understood it. Our master is so amazing, so talented, so insightful. This is just abstract art..."
“Eh~~” Caibao shook his head.
Their gazes immediately shifted to the treasure: "Master, how is it?"
“No good.” Caibao continued to shake his head.
A tall man with brown hair and gray eyes, who was standing not far from them, walked over upon hearing this and asked in broken Chinese, "Little friend, can you tell me what's wrong?"
Treasure pointed with his finger: "I don't even know what it's about, what's so good about it?"
Everyone collapsed...
So-called abstract art is just... not understanding anything, right? If you can understand everything, how can you be abstract? It's more like being crazy.
This kid.
The man smiled and said, "Is it possible that you just didn't understand?"
“Absolutely impossible!!” Caibao said to him firmly, “My dad says I’m the smartest kid in the world, how could I not understand?”
man:……
This reason is so compelling; it seems logically sound.
That shameless treasure still boasted, "It's not as good as mine."
"Oh?" The man became interested. "Little boy, you can draw at such a young age?"
"Yes, I did." Treasure nodded. "I even got first place!"
A bad feeling welled up in Fang Shiyou's heart. He exchanged a glance with Wen Ying, and the two turned to run away, but they were frozen in place by Chen Chuan's cold gaze.
Don't dare to move.
The man said, "Can I admire it for a moment?"
Caibao looked him up and down, then nodded: "Okay, friend."
Fang Shiyou clutched his backpack and shook his head, saying, "Master, why don't we just give up? As the saying goes, talent should not be flaunted. We are so talented, we shouldn't let others see it."
Unmoved by the treasure, he urged, "Hurry up."
With trembling hands, Fang Shiyou took out the drawings that were pasted onto cardboard from his backpack.
Caibaojie's famous work: Traffic Lights.
There are also five pictures in total, including one of Little Grey swearing and another of someone beating someone up in a museum.
The moment the painting appeared, the man fell silent.
Chen Chuan never interfered with Cai Bao's homework, letting her do as she pleased.
Then Caibao really let herself go, drawing a bunch of lines and randomly filling in colors. What's worse, she ate while drawing, leaving oil marks on her fingers as she did so. It was so unrestrained that it was terrifying.
