Chapter 481 - The Start of The Gathering (2/2)

Zhao Ming Qing saw how energetic his teacher was and before he could say anything, his teacher had left already. He had really wanted to tell his teacher to be careful of his safety. But he did not have the chance to.

At this moment, Lin Fan went straight to an art shop and told the owner he wanted to use his area for a while to complete a painting. If he did not prepare a gift for his teacher, Teacher Xia, it would definitely be very wrong.

He thought that buying an expensive gift was too tacky and after a lot of thought decided that a painting was the best since it was cheap and it showed effort.

The shop owner had no idea that this young man was part of the Chinese Art Association and was laughing at him at the start. However, in the end, his face was in shock like he had seen a ghost.

‘Peace and Prosperity’, Lin Fan had managed to display his superb skills.

Within his painting were birds and flowers, which symbolizes luck.

He did not see the point of adding peaches to the painting, which represent long life, as he felt Teacher Xia was still young, in her forties, and was a female so adding peaches would be seen as a complete joke. Also, if she were to hang it on the wall, it would be seen as unseasonal once her birthday ended compared to other more modest paintings.

When Lin Fan left the store, the boss was standing at the door, in complete shock saying, “This is a master…”

Although he was just the boss of an art shop, he had done his research on Chinese art. Was this an amazing artist that had just suddenly appeared? When he turned around and looked at the empty table, he felt a bit of regret. If he had known earlier, he would have asked him to do a painting for him.

Lin Fan unlocked his phone and looked at the group chat.

“Happy birthday Teacher Xia.”

“Teacher Xia, may you have your youth forever.”

“The red packets are here, everyone quickly come to the hotel.”

“That’s right, @Lin Fan @Rich man @Wang Zhen, only you guys are left, why aren’t you all here yet?”

Lin Fan replied, “On the way, I’m reaching soon.”

Rich man: “Traffic jam, reaching soon.”

Wang Zhen: “Had to work overtime, but I’m reaching soon.”

“Sh*t, Lin Fan is incredible now, he has shocked all of us.”

“Brother Fan is not average at all. He’s so f*cking awesome on the Internet.”

Rich man said: “That what happens when you’re famous, he has definitely risen above us.”

Rich man was Lin Fan’s university classmate. When the two of them were classmates, they had a lot of disagreements and would argue a lot. Lin Fan did not think that even now, after graduating that he would still make sarcastic remarks about him and Lin Fan could not take it.”

“Chen Xiang, I’ll stuff your mouth with my scallion pancakes, then you’ll see how great I am,” Lin Fan replied.

Rich man: “I can’t eat your scallion pancakes. If I do, I’d start barking like a dog.”

“Amazing, my brother.”

“Lin Fan, no matter what happens, you definitely need to let Chen Xiang try your scallion pancakes. We can sit and watch Chen Xiang bark.”

Rich man: “F*ck off, are you all just trying to piss me off?”

Teacher Xia: “What are you guys still arguing about? What time are you all going to reach?”

Rich man: “Happy birthday, Teacher Xia. I’m reaching soon.”

Lin Fan: “Teacher Xia, I’m reaching soon too, I’ll be there in 20 minutes at most.”

Teacher Xia: “Come quickly, we are waiting for you all.”

Although their class was a little messy, their form teacher was really nice to them, frequently organizing reunions. Thus, when it came to Teacher Xia’s birthday, a majority of them were willing to join in.

However, there were some who did not join. These people did not need to be cared about. After graduation, they had never bothered to open up to the group.
