A great opportunity that can change their lives? Then he had to hurry!

He immediately clicked on the link. He was really curious about what could change the Pei Corporation’s future. It was even more important than applying for an IPO.

After a three-second pause, the link appeared, “registration for the 10th National Calligraphy Competition is open!”

!!

Shen Mu: “…”

Immediately after, his CEO sent another message.

[ “Help me sign up.” ]

**

There was no meeting at the Calligraphy Association today, so there were not many people there. Su Ji saw a few old ladies who also received the invitation from Lu Ailian.

The old ladies were surrounding a man who was writing in oracle bone script and sighed in admiration.

Su Ji saw the person clearly. Wasn’t that the busy man who came and went without a trace, Bian Tong?

He traveled to three countries during the new year before returning. Pei Huai said that he was traveling without money and had been freeloading off others.

When he saw Su Ji, he greeted her politely.

Su Ji strolled to him. Looking at his beautiful handwriting, she teased him, “the cost of any lawsuit is enough for you to travel for one year. Why do you have to be so frugal?”

Bian Tong put down his pen calmly. “I don’t know if you are aware of the speed of global wealth depreciation.”

Su Ji: “?”

Bian Tong said, “let me explain…”

Five minutes later.

Bian Tong continued, “so, with the money I’m saving now, I might be able to buy a big villa in a hundred years.”

He was quite an interesting person. Other people would think a year into the future, but he would think in hundreds of years.

However, Su Ji felt that what he said made a lot of sense. She stroked her chin and pondered.

The current prices of goods had changed a lot compared to a few thousand years ago.

Bian Tong said that she didn’t need to save, and that Pei Huai’s assets would be enough for her to do as she wished in the next 500 years.

However, Su Ji said that she could not do that. A person had to be prepared for danger in times of peace.

This was how the two stingy people appreciated each other.

After that, Zhu Mingzhang came to look for Su Ji, and Su Ji left Bian Tong.

Before she left, Bian Tong had just finished writing a piece of calligraphy.

The old ladies continued to sigh in admiration, and Bian Tong was immersed in the compliments.

Su Ji had never seen him so passionate and patient with any young girl.

Zhu Mingzhang had no other reason to look for Su Ji other than to ask her about calligraphy.

The calligraphy competition was just around the corner. Zhu Mingzhang had been visiting the Calligraphy Association very frequently and was working very hard.

He invited his master back to his office. On the large study table were several pieces of freshly written calligraphy. The ink had not dried yet, and the back of the sofa next to it was also full of calligraphy.

Su Ji picked one up and looked at it. “You’ve improved a lot.”

Zhu Mingzhang cupped his hands in obeisance and said, “master, the vertical hook is my weak point. I always subconsciously combined the styles of other scrips. Please give me some guidance.”

The assistant at the side served them tea.

The assistant had long known that this great professor of his actually had a female celebrity as his master.

Other than shock, there was more shock.

He once thought of joining Su Ji’s calligraphy class to find out what was going on, but her class was too expensive, so he could not get in.

The assistant was indeed shocked to see her in person today, but, he was only shocked by her beauty.

He was still skeptical of her calligraphy skills.

But then, just as he set up the teacups, he saw Su Ji casually pick up a brush and write in a casual manner. The ink faded in the clear water and then she wrote on top of Zhu Mingzhang’s writing.

The assistant thought that it was a pity that Professor Zhu’s original work had been destroyed.

Su Ji made the same vertical stroke. However, it felt more like the Huanjin script!

The assistant held the empty tea tray and stood rooted to the ground. He looked at Su Ji and then at the calligraphy that she modified.

Su Ji’s faded ink brush strokes overlapped with Zhu Mingzhang’s original brush strokes, and it was clear at a glance. Zhu Mingzhang also understood where his previous mistakes were and nodded repeatedly.

The assistant entered the office with doubts, but when he left the office, his heart was filled with respect for a young and beautiful calligraphy expert!

In the room, Su Ji asked Zhu Mingzhang, “how are the preparations for the calligraphy competition?”

Zhu Mingzhang replied, “master, I’m sure that I can win the championship. However, with my status in the calligraphy world, I can’t hold myself to the standards of an ordinary champion.”

Su Ji patted his shoulder. “Good luck.”

The next day, on the day of the Lantern Festival, Xu Mingzhi defrosted a bag of Tangyuan.

She made two types, one fried and one boiled.

The skin of the fried Tangyuan burst open, and the sesame filling flowed out. Just by looking at it, one could imagine the crisp sound and the sweetness upon biting into it.

Su Ji preferred the fried Tangyuans, while Xu Mingzhi only ate the boiled ones.

...

Xu Mingzhi blew on the yuanxiao in his bowl and asked her, “baby, how is Pei Huai?”

Su Ji almost blurted out, “what about him?”

Then, she suddenly remembered his parents’ divorce.

After Su Ji said that they were a good match, Pei Huai was completely relieved. However, he had specially reminded Su Ji that if Madam Xu asked, she should try to be as pessimistic as possible. Only then would Madam Xu let her go to him more often.

Su Ji bit through a crispy Tangyuan, and the thick and sweet sesame filling flowed out. She said, “he’s better than before, but…”

Xu Mingzhi expressed her understanding, “you should spend more time with him.”

Su Ji replied, “sure….”

In the morning, Su Ji went to Xu Ni’s house to treat her mother as usual.

She was determined to get the 10 million yuan.

And through her recent observations and adjustments to the treatment method, she felt that it would be soon.

Lu Ailian was very happy to see her. She did not think that Su Ji could really cure Qin Bingjie’s madness. She just wanted to use this opportunity to create opportunities for Su Ji and her grandson. She even asked the servant to bring fruits upstairs.

...

Su Ji was focused on the 10 million yuan, but Lu Ailian had taken a fancy to her!

Su Ji could tell that Xu Ni had something on her mind as soon as she entered her room.

But she didn’t ask and just continued the usual banter, then she performed acupuncture on Qin Bingjie.

During this period of time, Su Ji had been carrying out a four-pronged approach, scraping, acupuncture, cupping, and medication. Qin Bingjie was more sober now. In order to prevent her from getting hysterical, Su Ji would first perform acupuncture to make her fall asleep before treatment so that she could talk to Xu Ni more conveniently.

After 20 minutes, Xu Ni couldn’t hold it in anymore. She said to Su Ji, “my mother will be attending the party tonight. Grandma said that she is Mrs. Xu, so outsiders will make wild guesses if she doesn’t attend such an important event.”

“That makes sense.” Su Ji nodded, “her condition is basically stable now. As long as we don’t agitate her, she should be fine.”

However, Xu Ni said, “I’m afraid I’ll agitate her tonight.”

Su Ji’s hand that was applying the needles paused for a moment. She looked up at her with a pair of smiling eyes, “what do you plan to do tonight?”
