[✓]Spending the Villain's Money to Extend My Life

The two chattering girls went completely silent in a second or less

Gu Shishi turned around after she had finished saying that and was met with another familiar face.

“Eh, MeowMeow? What are you doing here?”

Chen Kexin, too, had a look of shock. She was convinced by Gu Shishi’s speech.

Chen Kexin rubbed her nose.

She felt a bit awkward and also a little bit being put on the spot.

Could she tell Gu Shishi the truth that she was here because she was curious about how good Gu Shishi truly was after hearing what her grandmother had to say about her?

She found out from Pingting that Gu Shishi was an instructor here, teaching entry level classes. Naturally, she didn’t believe it... and one thing after another, here she was!

“I... I happened to be in the area...”

Chen Kexin blushed a little.

Naturally, she wouldn’t tell Gu Shishi that she was shocked by her amazing gongbi skill!

As a matter of fact, when Gu Shishi rolled up her piece of drawing paper, she almost wanted to jump out and ask if she’d sell it to her...

Zhengyangmen was one of the nine entrances into the old Beijing and arguably one of the most well-preserved defense structures from the old days.

Grandeur and imposing, it was a structure that was full of historical significance.

Most importantly, Gu Shishi’s painting was very realistic!

Not only was she able to depict the cuteness of the orange tabby with her skill in gongbi, but she was able to paint such an immense structure in such a delicate and realistic manner!

And it wasn’t just the appearance either, but also its imposing manner and its artistic conception!

Wind, cloud, water was a stupid ask.

Yet Gu Shishi was able to blend them all into this painting of Zhengyangmen!

They had turned into the artistic conception of the painting. To a point that she could also feel the sprinkling of rain and the sense of freshness brought on by the breeze.

She wanted to have it!

She wanted to take it home and show it to her grandmother!

Chen Kexin’s eyes flickered and she tried very hard to suppress the desire in her heart.

“Happened to be in the area eh?”

Gu Shishi did notice that Chen Kexin looked over at the painting in her hand repeatedly. She smiled but didn’t point it out.

“Since it is such a coincidence, do you want to sign up to my class?”

Chen Kexin was stunned.

Take her class? Gu Shishi was guru level in her grandmother’s eyes! And she could take her classes? She really was... just a regular instructor here!

Her grandmother would probably be stunned speechless if she ever found out.

“The pricing is really reasonable. $300 / class. $5,000 after discount if you purchase a 20-class package of one-on-one lessons.”

Gu Shishi tried to sell herself. This was her current work. If she was going to do it, she would give it her best.

Chen Kexin’s eyes widened. Just $300?!

She thought maybe her grandmother would want to come if she ever found out! No, chuck that “maybe”. For sure she would.

“Yeah, I guess I will do it?”
