Everyone looked towards the stage.

The judge in charge of tallying the scores looked at the tallied scores and smiled, "This contestant's score is quite special."

The people in the audience were curious.

What's so special?

"What's Lin Yusheng's score? Why haven't they announced it yet?"

The judges no longer kept the answer in suspense and directly displayed the scores on the screen.

"97.5 points!"

The audience exploded instantly.

Everyone was shocked.

The highest score before was only Lin Ruoyao's 83.1 points.

Most of the others scored over 70 points, and some even scored over 50 points lower.

This made many people curious about the scoring criteria, and whether the judges' requirements were too high, so 80 points was considered high.

It was not until Lin Yusheng's score of 97.5 came out that people who did not understand calligraphy clearly understood the difference.

"I want to say a few words here," Feng Peide said, scratching his head. "Just now, President Zhao asked me to replace Zhang Junsheng as a judge. I feel quite guilty. After all, I'm just a small calligraphy teacher at South China Middle School. I'm worried that I'm not professional enough and can't give fair evaluations of the contestants' works."

He added, "Just now, when I was reviewing Lin Yusheng's calligraphy, I felt even more guilty, because in my opinion, I am not qualified to judge this calligraphy at all."

"I'm saying this just to tell Lin Yusheng that your handwriting is excellent and you have great potential in the future. So the score is just a one-sided assessment by us judges. If we didn't give you a perfect score, it's not your fault, it could be our fault."

When Feng Peide said this, the whole audience sighed.

This evaluation is too high!

As the school's specially-appointed calligraphy teacher, he actually praised Lin Yusheng so highly!

Zhao Mengqing couldn't help but say, "Teacher Feng is right. The competition is just a form of expression, and Lin has unlimited possibilities in the future."

One of the judges joked, "It seems our President Zhao is also very optimistic about Lin. I've heard that President Zhao wants to take in an apprentice. How about you take in Lin Yusheng today?"

Below the stage, Song Zhilan was shocked.

Zhao Mengqing is the vice president of the Calligraphy Association and a well-known figure in the calligraphy world. He is far better than Zhang Junsheng. Even if Lin Yusheng is very good in the competition, Zhao Mengqing would not be so hasty to accept Lin Yusheng as his apprentice.

But the next second, she heard Zhao Mengqing laugh and say, "Do you think I don't want to? Think about why I have the girl's contact information?"

Zhao Mengqing said this bluntly. Song Zhilan's face froze. She couldn't believe that Zhao Mengqing had actually planned to take Lin Yusheng as his disciple.

Just considering Zhao Mengqing's connections in the calligraphy world, if Lin Yusheng had followed him, his future would have been limitless.

"So what happened next?" the judge was curious. "So you accepted Lin Yusheng as your apprentice?"

"No."

Zhao Mengqing sighed sadly, "I was rejected."

"what?!"

The judges were shocked.

Zhao Mengqing was actually rejected?

"Hahaha!" Feng Peide laughed, not knowing why he found it so funny. "I never thought that our President Zhao would one day run into a wall with a little girl..."

Below the stage, Song Zhilan was completely stunned.

That’s Zhao Mengqing.

Even Zhao Mengqing wanted to take Lin Yusheng as his disciple.

She once dreamed of training Lin Ruoyao to become a leader in the calligraphy world, as long as she could join the Calligraphy Association.

She spent so much time and energy on Lin Ruoyao.

As a result, it was not as good as Lin Yusheng's casual poem.

Song Zhilan hurriedly looked for Lin Yusheng at the scene.

Soon, she saw the girl walking with Lu Zhiyin.

Song Zhilan's heart was pounding. She walked over and was actually a little nervous. "Lin Yusheng, when we're done, Mommy will take you out for dinner—"

However, Lin Yusheng seemed not to hear her words. He didn't even look at her and just walked away from her.

Song Zhilan was stunned.

She stood there, looking at the girl's unfamiliar back, a blush on her face that was completely ignored.

Unprecedented regret welled up in my heart.

It felt like I had missed something important, and my heart ached.

If she could be more patient and gentle with Lin Yusheng, her relationship with Lin Yusheng would not have developed to this point.

Lin Yusheng was actually very obedient. She always remembered the timid "Mom" he called her when she first came to the Lin family.

She is very sensible, good at studying and calligraphy. No matter if she is the daughter of a top wealthy family or the vice president of a calligraphy association, they all like her.

But why didn't she, as a mother, like her in the first place?

What on earth had bewildered her at that time?

It wasn't until the cell phone rang that Song Zhilan was pulled out of her thoughts.

She picked up the phone and walked out in a daze.

-

Zhang Junsheng was expelled from the Calligraphy Association, and the Calligraphy Association also posted the penalty notice on Weibo.

This immediately sparked discussion among netizens.

They were all scolding him.

[Well done! People like this should be fired!]

[It's hilarious! Putting your own seal on someone else's calligraphy is so shameless! A calligrapher with such a great reputation would actually do such a thing.]

He even accused people of copying his work. How could he be so shameless?

Where are all the people who spent over a million yuan on Zhang Junsheng's calligraphy? I'm afraid no one would even want it for a hundred yuan now, right? Haha.

Zhang Junsheng looked at Weibo with a gloomy face.

He regretted taking Lin Ruoyao's calligraphy.

He had no idea that the calligraphy had a shady origin. If he had known, he would definitely not have taken it, and things would not have developed like this.

Zhang Junsheng clutched his cell phone, feeling unprecedented panic.

His reputation is now ruined and he has been expelled from the calligraphy community. Everything is over!

It’s all Lin Ruoyao!

Zhang Junsheng called Lin Ruoyao, unable to contain his anger, "Why are you trying to harm me? I'm your master! Have I ever been bad to you?"

"What on earth are you thinking of when you give me something you stole?"

When Lin Ruoyao heard this, she sneered.

"for you?"

She thought it was ridiculous. "I never thought of giving you this calligraphy. I came to you that day just to show you the calligraphy. It was you who asked me to give it to you!"

"It was obviously you who was greedy and wanted to take someone else's writing for yourself, but now you blame me."

Zhang Junsheng choked and became speechless.
