The painting depicted waves of mountains layered on top of each other, surrounding a vast river. The entire painting gave off a simple and elegant feeling.

At the bottom right corner of the painting, the red seal displayed its author's pen name: Green Sandalwood.

Ye Li stared at this name and her face tensed up.

It was given to her by her professor when she was in university. Compared to this pen name, though, she preferred the one she randomly chose: Night Li1.

But now that Xu Fang was suppressing her, her paintings with that name on them could not be displayed in the studio. Fortunately, her friend had given her a different name.

And that was why she drew another painting today, intending to give it another try using it.

Ye Li placed the tiny stamp aside and looked up. When she saw Xue Xi sizing up her painting curiously, she suddenly asked, "Xixi, do you want to learn Chinese painting?"

Learn...

Xue Xi's eyes lit up and she nodded. "Okay!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Li immediately took off her painting and placed it on the table beside her. She then put up a fresh layer of calligraphic paper and passed a brush to her. "The national art is focused on ink. It is complemented by color and is particular about speed and slowness. To draw mountains and rivers, one needs to learn how to use brushes, ink, composition, and color..."

After Ye Li gave a brief introduction, she demonstrated two strokes with a brush and a piece of separate paper.

Ye Li then passed the pen to Xue Xi. "Try it."

When Xue Xi was in the orphanage, she had learned calligraphy. She did not know how to paint, but she was the best at imitating. Her production of Slender Gold calligraphy was exactly the same as the original, so it was hard to distinguish between what's fake and real.

She thought for a while and drew two strokes on the paper.

Ye Li was stunned. "You really haven't learned it before?"

Xue Xi nodded.

Ye Li exclaimed, "But your penmanship is so stable! Moreover, the mountain you drew is exactly the same as my mountain!"

Her eyes lit up. "Xixi, after school, I'll teach you how to draw!"

She had always loved painting, and to her, painting was an activity that could calm one's heart. There were many techniques involved.

Xue Xi was also very happy. "Sure."

Ye Li pointed at the books on the bookshelf in the room and said, "In there are photos of famous paintings. You can take a look at them when you're free."
