Chapter 48: Chapter 48: Noble Lady of Wealthy Family VS Reborn Foster Daughter (Part 16)
Old Mr. De’s eyes bulged, and he looked at the person who asked the question with disdain, “Even if I told you, what would a commoner like you understand?”

The person looked embarrassed and touched his nose.
Gu Shengyin was quite curious. She recognized the person who had spoken, a prominent figure in Hua City, who was being openly disdained by Old Mr. De without any hint of dissatisfaction?
Old Mr. De glanced at the man and still spoke out, “Let me put it this way to you— this Birthday Celebration Painting, even if I personally did it, would not be better than this one by Little Friend Cheng.”
Hiss!
Upon hearing Old Mr. De’s words, many people gasped in shock.
Who was Old Mr. De? One of the pillars of Hua Country’s traditional painting community, he had represented Hua Country in many international cultural exchange competitions!
Many young people felt proud to receive even a single compliment from Old Mr. De. Yet now, he had openly admitted that Cheng Xizhi, who had just turned seventeen, had painting skills that were no less than his?
“Hahahaha!” Cheng Zhensheng finally recovered from the news that “his own daughter had become a master of traditional painting without his knowledge” and immediately cradled the painting like a treasure, looking at it endlessly.
Gu Shengyin blinked and took the opportunity to act cute, “Dad, do you like it?”
Cheng Zhensheng smiled very happily, “Like it! Of course, I like it! How could Dad not like something drawn by his darling Xi Xi?” He declared on the spot that he would hang this Birthday Celebration Painting in his study and look at it every day.
Cheng Zhensheng proudly looked around, noticing many friends and business partners complimenting him, with quite a few jealously praising him for having such capable children.
His eldest son, not to mention his outstanding talent in the business world, ensured the Cheng clan had a successor under his charge;
His second son was uninterested in business, but now was a painter with some reputation;
The only daughter, whom he and his wife had planned not to interfere with in terms of hobbies, even if pampered for a lifetime, unexpectedly had such incredible talent in traditional painting!
Cheng Zhensheng felt that he had never had a birthday that was so content.
At this time, nobody paid attention to Cheng Yiru, who had presented the valuable White Jade Guanyin Statue anymore. Everybody was expressing their appreciation and admiration for Cheng Xizhi.
Cheng Yiru was biting her gums painfully. She had never expected Cheng Xizhi to have such a move saved up, originally wanting to make her look foolish, only to end up enhancing her reputation.
After one last glance at the bustling hall, Cheng Yiru turned and walked away.
Cheng Xizhi, there’s a long way to go, we shall see!
Yuan Xu gazed at Gu Shengyin surrounded by people, feeling an increasingly strong desire rising within him.
Every time he thought he had understood her enough, this little woman always brought him another round of surprises.
She was like a meticulously wrapped gift, revealing stunning surprises only after being unwrapped layer by layer.
But this dazzling Cheng Xizhi, he really didn’t want her to be seen by others.
Yuan Xu’s eyes shimmered with a cunning light, he really, really wanted to lock up this little woman, keeping her in a place only he could see.
Let her brilliance, bloom only for him alone.
Gu Shengyin inexplicably felt a bit cold, she shivered, and puzzledly looked up, though the weather was quite nice today.
Turning her head towards Yuan Xu, the man revealed a gentle smile at her.
