Chapter 418: Competing in Backing?

Gu Yunqing also saw Fu Yuanxiu and asked, “Qian Zheng, tell everyone about the origin of art. It’s just the Stone Age. You must know such basic knowledge, right?”

Qian Zheng: “...”

The rest looked at her and did not know that she really did not know how to do it. They waited for her to explain.

Qian Zheng braced herself. “The Stone Age. That... I... I’ve never studied this before. I...”

Gu Yunqing smiled. “Qian Zheng, stop fooling around. Do you still need to study these? Isn’t this common sense?”

From the corner of her eye, Qian Zheng saw that Fu Yuanxiu had already arrived at the periphery of the crowd. She panicked. Of course, she knew that Gu Yunqing did it on purpose.

Everyone in the industry knew that she was ignorant and incompetent and did not study hard.

She coughed and said unhappily, “My throat isn’t feeling well today. Since this is common sense, Gu Yunqing, aren’t you also very interested in art? Tell me.”

The rest did not understand and looked at Gu Yunqing.

Gu Yunqing sighed. “Qian Zheng, you’re really... Fine. Since you’re unwilling to explain, I’ll explain it to everyone.”

With her back facing Qian Zheng, she started to speak to the crowd. “The Stone Age is when the history of Chinese painting first sprouted. With the improvement of the manufacturing methods of stone tools, the origin of art started to develop. A few years ago, real examples of Chinese painting that we knew came from the new Stone Age were painted on porcelain utensils. However, in many provinces in China, rock paintings were discovered, causing historians to push the origin of Chinese art to the Old Stone Age. Among these many discoveries, there are also images of many people, some of which can be considered grand...”

Gu Yunqing spoke very gently. Every word she said seemed to have been rehearsed. As she spoke, she gave off a noble feeling.

Especially since she explained using professional terms, those who did not understand would feel and say, “Wow, she’s amazing.” Those who could understand would not be able to find any problems.

After she said that, the crowd applauded and complimented her.

“Senior Gu is indeed amazing. She even knows something about art!”

“Wow, I felt so comfortable listening to her speak just now!”

“So painting originated so early...”

“...”

Qian Zheng stood behind her and clenched her fists in anger.

She was tricked again.

She’d thought she’d been smart enough to shift the attention to Gu Yunqing, but in the end, she had only allowed her to be in the limelight! This person must have memorized these things long ago to show off.

It was not good for her to show off by herself. But if she was pushed by someone else to show off, it would show that she was cultured and not arrogant. She would come off as having a strong foundation!

Qian Zheng patted her head and felt that she really could not win every time.

However, she still could not voice out her bitterness. She was simply too vexed.

How infuriating!

Qian Zheng stomped her feet and felt that she was about to explode from anger. She could not be bothered to listen to the crowd praising her anymore. Just as she was about to leave, Gu Yunqing started shouting at her again, “Qian Zheng, what I said just now was shallow. I don’t know if it’s good or not, but I’ve already thrown a brick at the jade. Why don’t you continue talking about Inner Mongolia’s rock paintings?”

Qian Zheng: “!!!”

If Qian Zheng said that she was not good at the subject, Gu Yunqing would have to continue talking about those paintings.

However, if she had to praise Gu Yunqing instead, she would rather die!

Qian Zheng’s chest heaved up and down in anger as she panted heavily. She pressed her chest and felt that she was about to faint from anger.

Gu Yunqing pretended to be surprised. “Qian Zheng, you love art so much. Don’t tell me you don’t know about Inner Mongolia’s rock paintings?”

Qian Zheng: “...”

Calm down.

Her brother had said that she could not throw a tantrum in front of outsiders. Otherwise, she would become known as an arrogant young mistress. Her reputation among the circle would be ruined by Gu Yunqing.

But—F*ck, calm down!

This Gu Yunqing was simply too cheap. It was fine if she wanted to promote herself, but why did she have to step on others?

Just as Qian Zheng was about to flare up, she heard a warm and mellow voice. “The Inner Mongolia Rock Painting is one of the earliest rock paintings. Over there, our ancestors have created many such images in the span of ten thousand years. These connected images have turned the entire mountain into a 300-kilometer-long art gallery.”

Everyone turned around and saw Fu Yuanxiu.

Everyone naturally made way for him to slowly enter the crowd. As he walked, he said, “According to speculations, it’s the call of religion or witchcraft that made the ancestors work hard to create these images. Similar images can also be seen in the cliff carvings on Kongwang Mountain.”

After Fu Yuanxiu said that, he looked at Gu Yunqing.

Although he appeared gentle, Gu Yunqing could feel the coldness in his eyes. “These are the original words in the book, right?”

Gu Yunqing’s expression changed drastically.

Before Gu Yunqing could speak, Xue Xi, who had followed Fu Yuanxiu into the crowd, said, “It should be from the fifth page of the book, ‘The Art History of Huaxia.’ Ms. Gu’s book knowledge is not bad. The original words are not wrong. Of course, there are new eras and pre-Qin paintings discussed later. Ms. Gu can continue to explain.”

Gu Yunqing’s face froze.

Everyone naturally understood the meaning behind Fu Yuanxiu and Xue Xi’s words. The way they looked at Gu Yunqing changed.

Did she purposely memorize the book to put on a show?

Sensing the mocking gazes of these people, Gu Yunqing pretended to be calm and smiled. “Student Xue’s memory is not bad. I just casually memorized it when I was reading. This book is not bad. Everyone can read it usually.”

This sentence forcefully reversed the situation.

Not only that, she turned to look at Qian Zheng again. “But Ms. Qian, have you never read such basic books?”

She directly shifted the topic of conflict to Qian Zheng.

Xue Xi narrowed her eyes.

This Gu Yunqing was indeed very capable and had superb control over the situation. No wonder Qian Zheng could only cry out in anger.
