Chapter 181: Not Only Can She Fight But Also
Paint
Theo looked at the woman in front of him, who seemed carefree and
relaxed. He glanced at her with his eyes slanted, holding his chin up
arrogantly as he said, "Just because you're old Mr. Edwardsâ
granddaughter doesn't mean the judges will go easy on you. Don't
waste our time; we need to move on to the next round quickly.â
His disrespectful words were met with support from viewers
commenting live.
"Truly an artist! Not only talented but also stylish! You're right; she
shouldn't have the privilege of being advanced just because of her
connections."
âIf that's the case, isn't Nora also old Mr. Edwardsâ granddaughter?â
âIt's not the same thing! My goddess has real talent; what is Cheyenne
compared to her?"
Nora's painting slowly appeared before viewers: half a meter tall and 40
centimeters wide - quite a large masterpiece indeed.
It depicted a golden field against a blue sky with faint snow-capped
mountains in the distance - pure and serene.
There were dozens of people in it as well.
It was a scene from when farmers harvested their crops, with the main
character being an older woman standing at the forefront whose face
was sunburned red from years of labor. She held a bundle of barley
while tears welled up in her eyes.
On another side of the field stood a five or six-year-old boy holding onto
a book while looking forward to his future full of hope and aspiration.
âThis is so beautiful! Nora really deserves to be our campus belle - both
intelligent and beautiful!"
"She must be number one for sure!"
"Cheyenne went too far by requiring Nora's brother kneel down and
apologize. We should forgive others when possible; doesn't she
understand that?"
âI hope Cheyenne loses this competition!"
âLet's wait and see; it'll definitely happen!"
Despite Theo's mockery and everyone else's disdainful looks around
her, Cheyenne remained calm as she gazed back at them through
watery eyes.
âDon't conflate my grandfather and me," she retorted calmly. "Besides, I
signed up for oil painting while he is a judge of traditional painting
group... Are you afraid that you're not professional enough or don't
have enough qualifications to comment on my work? Is that why you
brought him up?"
As soon as she finished speaking, there was silence before someone
exclaimed, "Holy crap! Who does this young woman think she is? So
arrogant!â
She had only spent half an hour creating such garbage. Could it even
be called art? At best it was just doodling!
"This trash actually dares to say that Mr. Roberts is not qualified to
comment on her work. Who gave her the courage?â
For the first time in his 60 years of life, someone dared to speak so
boldly in front of Theo.
His gaze became sinister, reminiscent of a vulture in the dark night -
sharp and terrifying. "Miss, you should respect the elders."
Cheyenne didn't hesitate to retort with sarcasm, "You don't even show
respect to me? What makes you demand my respect? Are you proud of
taking advantage of your seniority?"
"You!"
âI signed up based on my abilities and naturally prepared to be selected
based on my skills. Don't bring up my grandfather.â
Although her attitude was quite disrespectful, it depended on who she
was facing.
Cheyenne always believed that if someone respected her, she would
respect them too; but if someone caused trouble for her, she wouldn't
be afraid either!
The red-haired youth standing beside them repeated Cheyenne's
words and for once thought Cheyenne's words made sense! This time
he stood by Cheyenne's side.
The other two judges felt embarrassed as their thoughts were similar to
Mr. Robertsâ but as assistants they didn't have a chance to speak out.
"Ahem... Alright... you should submit your painting first so we can
evaluate it." He tried to ease the tension around him
Cheyenne handed over her oil painting.
As it was slowly opened up, a stunning masterpiece came into view
and left everyone speechless!
The landscape painting was vividly portrayed using oil painting
techniques with distant snow-capped mountains draped in red robes
while nearby lakes were serene blue reflecting colorful sunsets; black
trees along both sides had lost their leaves leaving behind deep
blackness which formed the foundation of life itself.
As soon as Nora saw it, she couldn't believe what was before her eyes.
"No... no way?" After studying oil paintings for fifteen years, the work
she submitted today took an entire month's worth of effort before
reaching its current state whereas Cheyenne created hers under Nora's
nose within half an hour almost effortlessly.
Those with keen eyes could see who won or lost.
âYou cheated! I don't believe it - how could you paint such a good
picture!" Sean attacked clumsily like an angry little rooster using his
sharp beak.
Jerry stepped forward and stood up for Cheyenne. âIf you can't handle
losing, don't throw a tantrum here. There are so many eyes watching,
and her painting is still wet. Is that cheating?" The others nodded in
agreement as witnesses to Cheyenne's on-site creation of the painting.
Cheyenne was truly a prodigy! It was difficult for most people to
complete an oil painting within half an hour, but she not only finished it
but also made it outstanding.
Glancing at the red-haired young man standing in front of her speaking
up for her, Cheyenne felt a warm feeling inside and thought about the
ten million dollars earlier. Well, she would give him back one million
later.
Theo felt his face burning with pain. If this painting were just graffiti,
then his previous works could only be considered scribbles.
This scene shocked netizens when it was uploaded online:
"Damn! Cheyenne actually painted it! What terrifying talent!"
"Is she even human? Is this what human wisdom and ability look like?"
"Look at the judge's expression; it's so exciting."
"We misunderstood Cheyenne before; not only can she fight but also
paint."
âI support our goddess Nora. I don't understand if Cheyenne's paintings
are good or bad, but based on appearance alone, I prefer Nora's style.â
"You're blind? Honestly speaking, Cheyenne is beautiful too despite
wearing pajamas; her figure is great!"
"I don't care; our goddess shouldn't apologize to someone like
Cheyenne. She must have deliberately hidden her talent - what a
cunning woman!"
Nora turned pale and said with a forced smile, âI never knew you could
paint, Cheyenne. If I had known earlier, Mommy should have let you
study art with me..."
"I told you they weren't worthy of teaching me," replied Cheyenne
coldly.
Xzavier felt as though he had been slapped across the face when he
heard those words!
