Chapter 576: Chapter 576 Delivering Food to the Door_1 Chapter 576: Chapter 576 Delivering Food to the Door_1 Dai Yifan knew of his grandfather’s pickiness. Although he had taught countless talents in all those years, he had never taken a single disciple. Now, not only does he have a disciple, but he also personally cooks delicious food for his disciple?
Does such doting on a disciple even exist?
He suddenly beca full of curiosity about his grandfather’s disciple.
Knowing his grandfather’s discerning eye, the disciple chosen by him must undoubtedly be one in a million.
“Gramps, can you introduce to this amazing disciple of yours?” Dai Yifan sat across from him, holding chopsticks but lost his appetite.
ntioning his disciple, Dai Jinhai’s suppressed excitent bubbled up again, making him want to show off his disciple subconsciously.
“Do you know ‘Young Maiden’?”
“Of course, I do!” He not only knew about ‘Young Maiden’ but was also aware that Yu Jingyi was looking for the painter. Moreover, because this painting’s entry by Mr. Mi and his grandfather had outshone Yu Jingyi’s most valued disciple and infuriated him no end.
Dai Yifan looked at his grandfather’s joyful face and his eyes lit up, “Could it be the owner of ‘Young Maiden’? But I heard that the owner of ‘Young Maiden’ is Mr. Mi’s granddaughter, and it’s her self-portrait.”
“Nonsense! Who is spreading such falsehoods?” Dai Jinhai was livid. “No disrespect to Mr. Mi, but even if his granddaughter painted for a thousand years, she could never capture half of ‘Young Maiden’s’ quality and spirit.”
“I didn’t believe it either.” He had heard of Mi Yuezhen during his previous visits to his grandfather, and knew vaguely that she was disinterested in painting. She took it up under her grandfather’s insistence.
“‘Young Maiden’ was painted by my disciple!” Dai Jinhai declared with pride: “My disciple is superb. The words ‘phenonally gifted’ don’t even begin to do her justice.”
“Congratulations, Gramps, on finally finding a disciple to your liking.” Dai Yifan feigned congratulation. Seizing the mont of his grandpa’s good mood, he tentatively asked, “So, are you not going back to the Imperial City then?”
Weighed down by the arrival of a disciple, he surely wouldn’t want to leave.
“Wrong! I’m going…absolutely! I will reply to the Imperial Academy of Fine Arts tomorrow and also inform those at Nan Da University.” He needed to arrange a grand initiation ceremony for his disciple!
Being his last disciple, the girl surely deserved the best.
“?????” The unexpected news left Dai Yifan shocked and speechless for a mont.
“Alright! Eat quickly and help deliver the food to your aunt once you’re done.”
“Aunt?”
“Isn’t my disciple your aunt? She’s a generation older than you!”
Dai Yifan initially thought his grandpa wouldn’t accept an older disciple, figuring they’d have developed their style and habits. But upon rembering the painter of ‘Young Maiden’, he accepted that the artist must indeed be of a certain age.
“Alright then! What’s my aunt’s na? I don’t know her, so I need to know her na at least, right?”
“Jiang Nanfei! Such a lovely na.”
Dai Yifan’s mouth twitched uncontrollably. Why did he suddenly feel like his grandfather was the disciple, and that this person was the actual master?
