The calligraphy exhibition arrived as promised.

The exhibition was held in an art gallery in the city center. That art gallery was the largest in the city. As it was a youth calligraphy exhibition held under Han Tian’s name, a gallery was specially vacated for the participating works.

N0.1 High School was not far from there. On Saturday morning, they took a bus for half an hour and arrived.

Due to the large number of participants and the promotion that a special work would be exhibited, many people came to take a look.

They arrived at the museum at nine o’clock in the morning, an hour earlier than the opening of the museum. However, there were already a lot of people. Han Tian was standing in front of the museum, anxiously looking for something.

Gu Xiao and Chu An stood in the crowd. Suddenly, Gu Xiao saw a familiar figure. After carefully identifying it, she pinched the corner of Chu An’s shirt and said,

“Look, is that person Ji Yao?”

Following Gu Xiao’s finger, Chu An looked over and nodded. “It’s true. 1 didn’t expect her to participate.”

However, they soon ignored her.

The reason why they arrived an hour earlier was that they had to present the awards before the opening of the museum. There were 50 participation awards, 20 third-grade awards, 10 second-grade awards, three first-grade awards, and a special prize in this competition.

However, everyone knew that the special prize was added at the last minute.

Seeing that almost everyone had arrived, Han Tian began to call out their names one by one, asking them to go on stage to receive the award.

Most of the time had already passed. When Gu Xiao heard that Ji Yao had won the first prize, she was a little surprised. After all, she did not know that Ji Yao was versed in calligraphy in her previous life.

The first prizes were given out very quickly. At this moment, Han Tian looked even more excited than Gu Xiao. “Now, we are going to give out the special prize! Even 1 dare not say that my writing is better than this work. Although it was written by a sixteen-year-old girl, 1 can see her pen control. Her control over her form is so wonderful! The winner of the special prize, Gu Xiao!”

When Gu Xiao heard her name, she went on stage. Seeing Han Tian’s admiring gaze, she responded with a smile. Then, she realized that Ji Yao’s face was actually pale.

Gu Xiao?

She had never thought that Gu Xiao would participate in such a competition. Even if she did, to think she could actually receive such a high evaluation, even surpassing her…

She had always been high and mighty. How could she accept such a huge blow?

Therefore, Ji Yao mustered up her courage and shouted from below the stage, “That’s impossible!”

Everyone turned to look at her.

Gu Xiao knew that Ji Yao would definitely not be able to accept this reality and would come out to cause trouble again, so she looked at her quietly.

“I know this person. You guys must know her too. Everyone must have seen the variety show that was broadcasted some time ago!”

Realization dawned on everyone at once: Gu Xiao, it was Gu Xiao from that show.

Ji Yao continued, “Her family has always been very poor and lives in the countryside. Why would her parents let her come into contact with such elegant art? How would she have the money to learn these?!”

Hearing her reasoning, the crowd below also discussed animatedly.

“Therefore, she must have bought someone else’s manuscript. No, she might even have asked someone else to write it because of her good relationship with the Chu family!”

Gu Xiao secretly clicked her tongue. What a illogical reasoning.

Due to the stereotype of people, why would Gu Xiao use such a risky method to make herself famous? Once she was found out that it was only in name but did not have the ability, she would lose more than she gained.

If she had any brains, she wouldn’t have done this.

However, most people would not think so much. They would think according to their stereotypes.

Gu Xiao’s expression did not change. She said in front of everyone, “If anyone suspects me, I can write it on the spot and let anyone specify the content 1 write.”

These words were powerful and resonating, and the crowd fell silent.

Han Tian originally felt that Gu Xiao did not need to use his power to intimidate others. However, after hearing what she said, he became interested.

“Then, 1’11 decide. I’ll just say it casually. Write down the first fifty words of the Preface to the Holy Church of Collected Words.”

Gu Xiao nodded.

The Preface of the Holy Church of Collecting Words was not a work. It was pieced together by later generations using Wang Xizhi’s original works. There was not much connection between the words, so it was usually not used as a piece for teaching.

Thus, Gu Xiao followed Han Tian into the hall. They found a table and placed a brush, ink, paper, and inkstone on it.

Gu Xiao wrote on the spot, smoothly and in one go. Han Tian, who was at the side, was stunned.. He could not help but shout, “Good! Good! You young people are really talented!”
