The Dazzling Princess in Modern Times
Chapter 783 Painting The Princess Surprising Mr. Danny



“Twenty years ago, I already got a green card from America. Of course, I'm American.” Although it was confusing, Lin Man still answered Xia Wanyuan's question.


“I think so too.” Xia Wanyuan nodded.


“After all, being humble and careful is a good tradition of the Chinese. From the looks of it, you don't seem to be Chinese.”


Lin Man did not expect Xia Wanyuan's question to be directed at his arrogance. The smile on his face disappeared. “Miss Xia, are you against my Blue family?”


Hearing that Lin Man had used the Blue family to suppress him, the corner of Xia Wanyuan's lips curved up.


The introduction that Jun Shiling showed him about the Blue family owning Lin Man, but he did not feel that Lin Man's status within the family was as high as the outside world had imagined.


“Mistress Lin, I'm afraid you left China too long and you don't know the meaning of returning those items to the original owner.”


Xia Wanyuan looked at Lin Man calmly, her aura suddenly clearly visible, making one's heart involuntarily feel a little weak.


“Anyone who steals my stuff should return it sooner or later.”


With that, Xia Wanyuan left the garden. Although Lin Man shouted “stop” behind him, he could not stop him.


“Sial.” Lin Man had not expected Xia Wanyuan to be so difficult at such a young age, but he would never let anyone destroy Li Na's future.

Danny is a master in the Western painting system. Regarding his arrival this time, Qing University did not let go of this good opportunity and specifically held a lecture. Everyone involved in the related profession was present, waiting to receive Master Danny's guidance. The hall is filled with students and teachers. After a long wait, Mr. Danny finally appears along with the vice principal and Li Na.


“Everything, welcome the world famous painter, Master Danny, to our school.” Just as the vice principal finished speaking, a standing ovation rang out all over the place.


“Mr Danny has long since resigned from the painting industry. Today, I hope Teacher Danny can provide some guidance to our students. I believe it will be a valuable asset for them.”


After the speech of the vice principal, Master Danny began his speech. At his level, giving lectures to students is basically out of scenario. He can say whatever he wants.


“Actually, painting is special about skillful techniques and capturing inspiration at a glance. Why don't we give an example on the spot?”


Speaking to his heart, Master Danny felt that relying on theory alone was not enough. He still wants to let students see concrete examples. “Is there anyone present who is not good at painting the West?”


To show the professionalism of the school, the attendees of this lecture studied Western painting. Everyone looked at each other. Some of the students raised their hands hesitantly.


“Hei, Xiao Xia, come here.” The vice principal looked around and immediately pulled Xia Wanyuan out of the crowd. “Mr Danny, Prof Xia is good at painting East. He is not good at painting the West. What do you think you need him to do?”


The vice principal even controlled the school's human resources and the enrollment situation. She liked Xia Wanyuan, which was a heartwarming recruitment ad. Every time there was an event, he wanted Xia Wanyuan to show her face.


In front of the camera, Li Na did not show any change in expression, but she was a little confused. If Xia Wanyuan appeared, what if Mr Danny knew that he had drawn “Starry Sky?


Mr. Danny gestured for Xia Wanyuan to sit at the table beside him. He wanted to use oil painting drawn by an untrained painter to explain to the students the importance of continuous accumulation of skills and inspiration to the painter.


“Oke.” Xia Wanyuan glanced at Li Na. Meeting the warning in her eyes, the corner of Xia Wanyuan's lips curved slightly as she climbed the stage.


Danny's teacher continued to lecture the students. His initial plan was to end the lecture ten minutes early and then explain Xia Wanyuan's painting, regardless of whether he had finished painting or not.


However, to his surprise, it was only about ten minutes. After completing a short paragraph of theoretical knowledge, he took a glass of water on the table and drank a mouthful of water. He will continue.


“I finished.” Xia Wanyuan suddenly stood up, attracting the attention of the crowd.


“Very fast?” Mr. Danny was surprised.


The teachers and students present watched Xia Wanyuan finish the painting very quickly, and their hearts skipped a beat.


Although Master Danny's initial intention of asking someone to draw was to require an unprofessional person to draw an example, this was too unprofessional. Ten minutes, he might not even finish his outline, right?


“Ask the staff to project the painting on the big screen. Let's take a look together.” Master Danny wanted to look for an unprofessional painting as an example, so he didn't think too much about it.


The staff quickly adjusted the equipment and showed Xia Wanyuan's painting on the big screen on stage.


Master Danny and the headmaster sat on the platform with their backs to the big screen behind them. Therefore, when the scene was projected, they did not immediately see the painting.


On the other hand, after the audience in the hall saw the oil painting on the screen, the entire place became quiet. They inhaled a breath of cold air and looked at the painting on the stage in a daze.


The vice headmaster looked up and was surprised to see the expressions of the teachers and students.


Could it be that Xia Wanyuan was useless as a mascot this time around?! What happened to scare everyone like this?


“OK, thank you for the painting, Prof Xia. Now, let's look together. Why do I keep stressing that the painter should pay attention to the accumulation and have a lot of training? Someone like Prof Xia, who is not good at oil painting,” said Mr. Danny as he turned to look at Xia Wanyuan's painting. Then, he couldn't say the rest.


Back then, Master Danny's famous work was “Moon Flower” dedicated to Van Gogh. The decoration of Qing University was very discreet. Sunflowers were placed everywhere in the hall, including the table where Mr. Danny sat.


The painting projected on the big screen is “Sunflowers” Xia Wanyuan. The lights in the lecture hall were somewhat dim, and Xia Wanyuan's painting was like a sun that appeared out of nowhere, emitting its warm glow to every corner of the hall.


The technique was very gentle, and the color was very bold. Even Master Danny had to admit that such a bright and bold color might not be so fused.


“Prof Xia, you really haven't received systematic training ?!” Mr. Danny looked at Xia Wanyuan in disbelief.


Such a standard had already far surpassed many self-proclaimed famous painters, but he actually did not specialize in Western painting? It makes Mr. Danny feel in disbelief.
