Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Yan Han’s sudden realization brought to light the limitations of her own perspective and foresight. It beca apparent that Xia Wan possessed a
broader and more long-term vision. In accordance with her insights, many essential actions should be undertaken.
Xia Chen wholeheartedly concurred with Xia Wan’s viewpoint on this matter. The collective discussion that followed further solidified their shared understanding. Even Xia Feng’s ambitious career trajectory had been ticulously laid out.
A spark ignited within Yan Han’s eyes as she absorbed the discourse. It was as though she could already envision Xia Feng ascending to a prominent position within the art world.
Amidst the ongoing conversation, Xia Feng returned ho to an eerie spectacle. The assembled family fixed their gazes on him in unison, an intensity emanating from their eyes that sent shivers down his spine.
Taken aback, Xia Feng involuntarily stepped back and stamred, “Why are you all looking at like that?”
“I got held up drawing so blackboard notices at school, that’s all. I’m perfectly fine,” Xia Feng hastily reassured, believing their scrutiny was due to concerns about his well-being.
With an air of excitent, Yan Han advanced towards Xia Feng, scrutinizing him closely.
“Now, tell candidly, do you have a passion for drawing?
Although puzzled by Yan Han’s query, Xia Feng nodded without hesitation. ‘Yes, I enjoy it. When I’m drawing, I find tranquility. I can imrse myself in the realm of my imagination.”
Chen MO nodded approvingly. “Xia Feng derives satisfaction from the process of drawing, which is crucial for mastering the art.”
“Should his interest endure, he’ll willingly dedicate himself to mastering the craft. Perseverance shall yield substantial results in the field of art.”
Understanding gradually dawned upon Xia Feng. He gazed at Yan Han in astonishnt. “Mom, are you suggesting I pursue art seriously?”
Xia Wan took the initiative to rise and elucidated, “Big brother, while academic studies hold significance, embracing your passions is equally vital.”
Subsequently, Xia Wan unveiled their proposed course of action to Xia Feng.
Their blueprint entailed securing an art instructor for him and arranging trips to Beijing during breaks to interact with an art expert.
Xia Feng’s heart raced with excitent. His ardor for art had always remained concealed within him.
Aware of a fellow classmate who ardently pursued art, Xia Feng had observed the classmate’s parents held steady jobs at a bank, enjoying financial security.
Allegedly, this classmate’s monthly expenditure on art supplies such as paper, pens, and paints could easily reach 100 yuan.
The revelation left Xia Feng flabbergasted, deterring him from ever disclosing his interest in art. He resolved to stay back at school that day only because his seatmate had enthusiastically recomnded him as the better artist to the teacher.
Upon viewing his typically impromptu doodles, the teacher expressed contentnt and tasked him with illustrating the classroom bulletin. Encouraging him to contemplate art classes, the teacher’s words were acknowledged but never truly entertained out of concern for his family’s financial strain.
Despite his sister’s lucrative earnings, Xia Feng regarded her inco as distinct from his family’s communal resources. Additionally, the sustainability of the family’s newfound financial stability remained uncertain.
Surveying the abundance of clothes in his sister’s boutique, Xia Feng pondered the steady stream of custors – many entering, few purchasing.
A gnawing apprehension manifested within him, fearing that the boutique’s profits wouldn’t cover its operational expenses in the long haul.
After a brief internal struggle, Xia Feng shook his head resolutely. “No, I don’t wish to delve into art. I’ll concentrate on my academic studies.”
Unbeknownst to Xia Feng, his inner turmoil was laid bare before Yan Han, who perceived his concern. She promptly intervened, stating, “It’s already in motion. We’ve secured an art instructor for you. Henceforth, you’ll dedicate weekends to honing your artistic skills at ho. What’s more, we’ve already covered the expenses.”
Xia Chen cast an astonished gaze at Yan Han. When did she manage to arrange an art teacher for Xia Feng?
As the ever-present figure in both school and ho settings, Xia Chen couldn’t recall any instance of Yan Han consulting an art instructor.
Gradually, a realization dawned upon him — Yan Han had cunningly cornered Xia Feng into a position where he couldn’t refuse art education.
In accordance with this revelation, Xia Chen extended his cooperation, adding, “Indeed, we’ve found soone for you. Refusing to learn would amount to a waste of our resources.”
With everyone voicing unanimous support, Xia Feng found himself capitulating to the plan. Post-dinner, Yan Han departed under the pretext of bidding farewell to Chen Mo..
