Someone questioned, “It’s not that easy to learn calligraphy. From what you said, he’s still young but he’s already so famous. Is he legitimate?”
“Who says that he’s lacking in skills just because he’s young? The Saint of Books, Wang Xizhi, became famous at the age of 27. The great calligrapher, Liu Gongquan, made his name known throughout the capital at the age of 12. This Qin Yue is already in his 20s. He was born in a family of calligraphers. He’s both talented and works hard!” Someone in the crowd yelled.
Du Guoshou smiled and said, “This esteemed guest is right. Qin Yue is indeed a talented person, so there is no need to doubt his strength. There are people abroad who love his calligraphy so much that they’re intoxicated by his work. Even if they pay a high price, they might not be able to invite him to write for them. You can imagine his strength.”
Everyone was fascinated by the explanation. What kind of talent could have such powerful abilities?
When Su Bei heard this, she couldn’t help but think that this man was really powerful. To be able to reach such a pinnacle in an industry was indeed admirable. However, she hadn’t practiced calligraphy for a long time and didn’t know what was going on in the industry, so she had never even heard of such a famous person.
Du Guoshou looked at Tang Yue and said respectfully, “President Tang, you mentioned Qin Yue. Could it be that you want to give the old master his calligraphy?”
Tang Yue smiled, and Du Guoshou could not help but admire her. “Ah, then we’re all going to have a feast for our eyes tonight! I really didn’t expect to be able to see Qin Yue’s writing in person. It’s really a once in a lifetime chance!”
The atmosphere was completely lifted, and everyone wanted to take a look at the piece.
They really did not expect to see such treasure. This birthday party really made one feel good.
Tang Yue smiled and said, “Everyone, we’re indeed going to show everyone Qin Yue’s calligraphy tonight. However, we’re not going to be presenting his work as he’ll be writing on the spot. So, let us welcome Qin Yue!”
When Tang Yue said this, the entire venue was in an uproar!
For Qin Yue to personally appear, one could very well imagine how shocking this matter was. All the ordinary people present would get to watch an exciting show here today.
A few elders who liked calligraphy and painting, who were originally sitting calmly, couldn’t help but stand up at this moment. With their juniors supporting them, they all walked forward.
Everyone quickly made way for them.
Old Master Tang was so proud!
Tang Yue’s filial piety made him content.
His old friends looked at him with envy. “Old Tang, we’ve really lost to you this time! Your granddaughters are more filial than the other!”
“I look forward to it!”
“It’s thanks to you that I got to meet Qin Yue!”
Some of the ordinary people thought that Tang Yue was purposely trying to make the atmosphere more lively so as to elevate Qin Yue’s status. They did not expect that even the seniors present would say this, so none of them dared to be disrespectful.
It seemed like this Qin Yue really had some strength.
Tang Yue had a smile on her face as she looked down at the crowd and then at Su Huixian and Su Bei.
Su Bei, on the other hand, did not think much of it. She had always felt that one’s intentions were most important when giving a gift. It was fine as long as a gift met her expectations.. It did not have to be high-class or expensive.
