After traveling to a country where women are king, I abandoned my husband and children

"What are you talking about?" Kong Yixuan rolled her eyes. "I asked for the external reception phone number of Hengyang County Lord's Mansion and called many times, but they always said you were busy."

Ge Fu was stunned for a moment, then reacted.

I was so immersed in painting recently that I didn't even answer Yu Jun's calls, let alone the landline phone.

"It's my fault, it's my fault." She said with a wry smile, "I have something to do today, I'll treat you to a meal tomorrow as an apology."

"Then I want to have a seafood buffet with king crabs and Australian lobsters!" Kong Yixiuan said bluntly.

"Okay, okay!" Ge Fu said with a smile, "Let's go to the bar after dinner. I'll treat you to a show."

At the end of her words, she winked at Kong Yixuan suggestively.

When the two of them were chatting, Kong Yixuan once mentioned that she wanted to go to a special bar abroad to watch male models striptease. There were no such bars in China at that time. After all, in Hengyang, men were relatively conservative.

However, there has been war in Jinglong in the past two years, and many people from Jinglong came to Hengyang to settle down. Among them, some started this kind of business.

——Men in Jinglong don’t have the same baggage as men in Hengyang, nor do they have concerns about their reputation. Many men are happy to make this money.

Kong Yixuan waved her hand and said with a smile, "Okay, it's settled then."

Because she was in a hurry to attend the school anniversary celebration at the Academy of Fine Arts, Ge Fu left without staying long. Before leaving, the two added their mobile phone numbers and WeChat accounts again and promised to keep in touch.

On the way to the Academy of Fine Arts, Ge Fu looked back from time to time, and when she saw Kong Yixin, she waved to her with a bright smile on her face.

Until they disappeared from view, Kong Yixiuan still stood at the door, not looking away for a long time.

Go Fu came to the Academy of Fine Arts to attend classes quite often when she was in college, so she was very familiar with the place. She first took Zhuang Jingjing to find Professor Liang, and then, with the introduction of Professor Liang, she got to know other professors at the Academy of Fine Arts, including the dean of the Academy of Fine Arts.

After exchanging pleasantries, everyone moved to the art gallery of the Academy of Fine Arts. There were many people here at the moment, and many alumni stopped in front of "Benfu".

As graduates of art academies, even though some alumni are not currently engaged in jobs related to the painting world, they still pay close attention to this circle.

Therefore, everyone is familiar with the name Cassiel.

"I didn't expect Cassiel's paintings to appear here. Did she graduate from an art school?"

"I don't know, but even if it's not, it's probably closely related."

"The style of this painting, Running, is very different from her previous works, and seems to be a breakthrough."

"I don't think so. I still prefer the painting 'Blue Castle'. The beauty of its desolate beauty is so special. In comparison, 'Running Towards' seems a bit too plain."

"No way! Although the painting 'Running Towards' is a bit plain, it has a calm sense of power. The more you look at it, the more excited you become."

……

Listening to the alumni's arguments, Professor Liang said with a smile: "The audience's voice is sometimes important, but sometimes not important at all. You must never try to please them."

"I know." Ge Fu also smiled, "As an artist, expressing yourself is always the core."

Professor Liang gave her a silent thumbs up.

"Come on, I'll take you to see the excellent works of other alumni." The dean raised his hand and invited.

Gofus refused, and the group slowly admired the paintings hanging in the window from one end of the art gallery.

Every work that is selected by the Academy of Fine Arts to be displayed in the art gallery has its merits. Among them are even a few works by students. Although they are a little crude, they have their own spirit.

"Although these works are excellent, in terms of value, I'm afraid it has to be your painting 'Running Towards'." At the end, the dean sighed and said, "The ultimate goal of most students who enter the Academy of Fine Arts is to become a painter who can make a living by painting, but only one in ten can do it."

Just like these art academy professors, people who are not informed think that all art academy professors are painters, but in fact this is not the case.

In fact, there are only two people in the whole academy who can be called painters, him and Lao Liang. He made a name for himself in the painting world when he was young, but before he could make further progress, he suffered a comminuted fracture of his wrist in a traffic accident, and then chose to shine in the teaching position. As for Lao Liang, he chose to stay in school because he liked teaching and educating people, and he has been doing this for many years. His fame in the painting world has been accumulated bit by bit, and he is not a big shot, but because of his years of hard work in the industry, he has a certain status, and one of his paintings can barely sell for six figures.

Painting is a talent-intensive business. It requires not only talent but also luck. The luck here does not refer to pure luck, but whether the painting style is easily accepted by the audience and whether it conforms to the current aesthetics.

——After all, there are many painters in this world who became famous after their death.

And the Princess Hengyang in front of him obviously possesses both qualities.

He tried hard to invite this person, firstly, he hoped that this emerging domestic painter could make up for the shortcomings in academic qualifications and avoid being criticized in the industry in this regard; secondly, he hoped that this young painter who has strength, fame and commercial value could bring new changes to the students of the art academy.

Upon hearing this, Ge Fu smiled but said nothing. At this moment, whatever he said seemed like Versailles.

What the dean said was something she was used to seeing. As one of the minority who accounted for less than 10% of the total, she had also been arrogant in her heart. But after settling down and calming down, she learned to look at her own success and the failure of others with a normal perspective.

"It's getting late, let's go to the auditorium." Seeing that the atmosphere became solemn as the dean spoke, Professor Liang changed the subject.

He is an optimist and is very satisfied with the current situation. Although he occasionally envies his student's outstanding talents, he is also sincerely happy for her achievements.

As the group was on their way to the auditorium, there seemed to be a commotion among the group of students nearby.

Ge Fu glanced over and didn't even blink when he saw several men and women who looked somewhat similar to Yun Yuchen being pinned down by the bodyguards sent by Hua Niang.

Zhuang Jingjing also saw it, and whispered in Ge Fu's ear: "There are many reporters here today. Although most of them are from regular media, there may be some gossip reporters sneaking in."

"It's okay. I'm not afraid of them asking." Ge Fu smiled faintly, "Anyway, I'm not the one who's embarrassed."

Zhuang Jingjing thought so too and said, "Then I won't ask anyone to conduct a strict investigation?" Those bodyguards who followed secretly were all following her orders.

"We still need to investigate." Ge Fu said calmly, "Have you forgotten those anti-emperor organizations? They really like to cause trouble in occasions like this."

There are many organizations in Hengyang that oppose the imperial family and believe that people should not be divided into three groups or six groups in the household registration. These organizations cheat people of their money in the name of "speaking for the people". They can't do anything serious, but they are very good at making trouble.

Zhuang Jingjing, who had originally relaxed, immediately tensed up.
