Su Yi told Su Xuezhen to go away, and he did, without turning back once.

Their mentor-and-apprentice relationship broke from then on, and they became strangers.

Later on, Su Xuezhen's work naturally passed the second round. Like previously mentioned, all apprentices of famous mentors could pass the second round. Back then, there were much fewer people who signed up - not even over ten thousand people. This was why, back then, the face-to-face was the last round, and there was no free-write round.

Su Xuezhen got eliminated in the face-to-face round, and he was top 32 in the entire national exhibit.

To a youngster who was only 22 years old, this ranking was already really good. The contestants who were ranked above him were all older than him.

Su Xuezhen, indeed, had skills and abilities.

Through his outstanding performance at that calligraphy exhibit, Su Xuezhen started to become famous. He was a very aspirational but collected person, so he did not let this small accomplishment get to his head.

Without Su Yi's mentoring, he taught himself and studied others' work, repeating this day after day. He finally got payback for his hard work, and he got hired by the local Gudu government and became a government worker. From then on, his life became better and better, as if he had a cheating system. Now, he had long stopped working for the government. He was earning so much money being a calligraphist and the principal of his academy.

And Fang Huaiyuan gradually stopped being so interested in studying calligraphy because of this. He was more leaning towards treating calligraphy as a hobby and he wanted to focus on his actual job. It was probably why outstanding people were outstanding at everything, not just their specialty. In 30 years, he conquered all of his challenges and finally became the principal of Capital University.

After Su Yi finished the story, he straightforwardly ate a hypotensive drug to calm himself down,

"I told you these things because I want you to pay attention to Su Xuezhen tomorrow, in case he tries to obstruct you."

Liu Man nodded, her appreciation filled her heart.

She felt pity for Principal Fang. During summer, she would often visit Professor Su's house to practice her calligraphy, and she would often meet Principal Fang. She had already discovered that Principal Fang rarely writes. Before, she felt curious. Wasn't Principal Fang one of Professor Su's apprentices? However, he did seem quite uninterested in calligraphy; besides, she didn't hear about any famous work coming from Principal Fang. As the principal, he could at least write words on plaques for academic buildings and gyms. Nonetheless, Principal Fang never did that.

The younger disciple he cared so much about back then returned his care with backstabbing. It completely broke Principal Fang down.

If Su Xuezhen didn't replace his work that year, perhaps Principal Fang would already have become a calligraphist.

His selfish actions completely changed the two people's lives.

After returning to her room, Liu Man searched up Su Xuezhen on Baidu and examined the description of his past life. She also looked at his work. To be honest, his clerical script was great, and Liu Man's work was bad when compared to his. She admitted that she couldn't be compared to him.

And when the description was elaborating on his relationship with Su Yi, the phrasing was: "Mr. Su temporarily received some education from the calligraphist, Mr. Su Yi," The sentence completely avoided his embarrassing history and did not mention a single word of how he was disowned. He even took advantage of Su Yi's reputation to make himself look better.
