Chapter 183: Don'T Be So Stingy

Chapter 183: Don't Be So Stingy

Everyone saw the scene where Cheyenne was writing on the desk earlier, but at that time, everyone thought she was just playing around. However, after seeing her oil painting, many people now had high expectations for Cheyenne's calligraphy skills.

"Are you kidding me? First place in oil painting wasn't enough; now she is showing her calligraphy skills too?"

"I feel like we're about to experience another visual shock!"

"I'm so jealous..."

"I finally know what sets me apart from rich people - they have talent; meanwhile I'm just average and broke."

Thankfully, it was summer and with the high temperature, Cheyenne's calligraphy work would dry quickly.

She casually placed her piece of calligraphy on the table and slowly unfolded it.

"Reign Over The World"

Black ink on white paper complemented each other as dynamic beauty flowed through each stroke. These four short words exuded rhythm and momentum. Her handwriting reflected her personality, free-spirited yet commanding!

"Oh my god! This is simply amazing! So surprising that I can hardly contain myself!" Rex almost glued himself to the artwork while fumbling for his reading glasses from his pocket.

He usually avoided wearing glasses because they concealed his good looks. He only brought out his reading glasses when he needed to closely examine a specific artwork. Those who knew him well understood this habit of his very well.

Seeing Rex pull out his glasses meant that this piece was extraordinary!

The other two judges didn't even bother looking at it before taking an award certificate off the table in front of them designated for oil paintings.

"Borrowing this,” one said as he handed over a pen with its cap twisted open.

He scratched off "oil painting” written on it then wrote “calligraphy” instead right in front of everyone else present there including Theo who could only stare speechlessly at that judge.

The other two judges from the oil painting group said, “Is your calligraphy group so poor?"

"Don't be so stingy; we're all colleagues. It's not about being poor, it's just that the awards for the calligraphy group are all used up. But if we don't give Miss Lawrence first place for her work, this competition will be so unfair.”

"Yeah, I agree.”

Participants: "..."

The audience was stunned!

Is giving the award certificate so casual an act?

Rex gave his assistants an appreciative look, gazing at Cheyenne's calligraphy work with fascination. His gaze shifted to the seal in the lower left corner.

He almost bit his tongue in anger!

His voice grew louder and louder, ringing in everyone's ears.

"This is too much!"

“This is too much, how can you do this!"

“I'm so angry that I'm about to have a heart attack."

This sudden twist made Nora's originally dim eyes suddenly brighten up again. She didn't dare show too obvious schadenfreude and quickly coughed to suppress her inner joy.

"Mr. Chambers, what's wrong? Is it because my sister wrote this work poorly and angered you? That's not it. Maybe it's because she hasn't practiced for too long and has lost some skill."

Her soft voice sounded out, causing Layne's face to darken slightly with cold eyes.

Cheyenne smiled at her and said sarcastically, "Oh? You said you hadn't seen me pick up a pen at home before? Why are you saying I've been practicing less now?"

Hearing this, everyone looked at Cheyenne with suspicion.

They had previously thought she was really considerate but now they all changed their minds.

Was Nora a liar? If so, her previous "gentle and caring" image were all fake?

Nora was momentarily speechless as she regretted saying what she just did...

"Cheyenne, don't be ungrateful! My sister only spoke for you because she saw that you had angered Mr. Chambers. Look at yourself now! You're returning kindness with ingratitude! What kind of person are you!"

Sean Suddenly spoke, which made Cheyenne remember their previous bet.

Turning towards him, she sneered and said, "Speaking of which, I have beaten Nora. Shouldn't you also fulfill your promise?"

As soon as the words fell, Sean appeared less arrogant while his slightly pale face turned red along with his ears twitching; This was his usual behavior when he felt guilty or nervous. Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ FɪndNøvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Before Sean could speak, Rex suddenly interrupted him. “You all misunderstood me; I didn't say Miss Lawrence's work wasn't good enough. It's too good but there are still some shortcomings which makes me feel regretful.”

He had a bad habit of wanting everything to be perfect . Cheyenne's calligraphy work was undoubtedly too perfect, and he couldn't find any errors in it. Even though he had been immersed in this field for over forty years, he still had to admit that Cheyenne's writing was more elegant than his own.

"What's wrong with it?" Layne blew his mustache and looked over at the calligraphy.

He could tell that she definitely put her heart into it. As long as Cheyenne was willing to put in the effort, her writing could easily be displayed in a museum collection.

Seeing Layne getting visibly angry, Rex quickly spoke up to explain, "Old Mr. Edwards, don't misunderstand me. The problem is with the signature on the bottom left corner. It looks like Miss Lawrence used her fingerprint because there wasn't a seal available."

No one had ever done this before.

From afar, it looked fine, but up close having just one fingerprint there made it seem like an imperfection on white jade.

“It's easy enough to fix; we'll just cut off that part,” said two other judges as they handed over the prepared award certificate to Mr. Chambers. Nora's face went from white to red then finally turned blue.

How could this happen?

She even got first place in Calligraphy!

Cheyenne was clearly someone who didn't know anything before; Nora saw some of her doodles once and they were extremely childish cartoons - kindergarten level stuff!

In fact, her doodles were really drawn for the kindergarten.

Kate once worked part-time at a kindergarten and happened upon Children's Day so she begged Cheyenne for help drawing cartoon animals for herself.

That was four years ago now; Cheyenne agreed.

She brought back piles of card paper home and started working on them which was when Nora saw her draw for the first time... and last time.

She mistakenly thought that those drawings were representative of Cheyenne's skills.

Big mistake!
