Chapter 116: [MeowMeow: … don’t block me from chat…]

Plus, the condition of her skin, now half a shade lighter in skin tone, looked to be full of moisture. Even she wanted to pinch herself!

After she had fully appreciated her entire look in the mirror, the ink on the fan mount had dried.

She flipped it over. Using her goat hair pen, she wrote two words over two lines in cursive script vertically in the middle of the back.

“Gust”

“Strength”

And that’s a wrap.

The back of the fan mount was also completed.

“Not bad, not bad. Even my writing had improved.”

Gu Shishi was quite pleased with her own work.

“Everything went so well today. Must be the bath that put me in such good condition!”

Lucky that she had already turned off the streaming now; otherwise, MeowMeow, who had been lurking for over an hour, would probably start screaming right about now.

Gu Shishi’s technique in calligraphy was every bit as good as her painting.

Calligraphy and painting come hand in hand.

Both of them were lines formed from ink.

And their approaches — hook, lift, pause, and file – also overlapped a lot.

In order to be able to add fitting captions without ruining the overall painting, Gu Shishi had spent a lot of time in the past to practice her calligraphy.

In particular the characters that she had written today, they had well exceeded her normal level.

As she had experienced the rhythm and strength of bamboos in the dimension, her two words were particularly full of lofty ambitions, uninhibited, and rhythmical.

It was completely void of any feminine feel to it.

The two words in cursive script were wild, unrestrained, smooth, and eclectic. It was dynamic between strokes and full of rhythmic beauty between its masculinity.

One could say that the words perfectly complemented the windy bamboo painting on the fan mount. Its vigor almost bleeding through the paper to the other side!

Even though the fan fibs and mount were both from Taobao, costing less than $100, the ink she had added to it at least increased its value tens of times!

Finally, Gu Shishi skillfully put the fan ribs and mount together and even added handmade fringe to it with irregular tridacna Stones.

And then it was completed!

“Done!”

Gu Shishi’s bar was very high.

Let it be its color, or the painting, they were both esthetically pleasing.

After she was done, she even propped the black hand fan up on her pen mount and took pictures of both it’s front and back.

After just one second, she had posted it to her friend’s circle.

[Hand painted black bamboo fan: Relishing The Bamboos In the Night Rain]

[This was made as a gift for a friend. Not for sale.]

She didn’t even need to use any filter on it. The black and gold duo colors were grand enough to speak for themselves. The moment that the post was sent out, she immediately received instant praises and comments.

[King of the Hill: Are you selling any more hand drawn fans? The kind with nature painting plus calligraphy!]

Gu Shishi smiled and was just about to reply to him when her phone started buzzing non stop.

She was ecstatic when she switched over to the chat screen.

[MeowMeow: … Are you really Gu Shishi in the flesh?]

[MeowMeow: I don’t get it. Why do you want to keep your identity a secret?]

[MeowMeow: … Are you there? Are you really not putting the fan up for sale?]

[MeowMeow: Then can you paint me another one? Price is… negotiable.]

[MeowMeow: … don’t block me from chat…]

This girl was too funny!

Gu Shishi pursed her lips. Her eyes filled with smiles.

[This one is not for sale. You can preorder fan mounts next time.]

Gu Shishi smiled as she typed.

She hasn’t yet given it a lot of thought on how to make Chen Kexin break away from Team Gu Wushuang.

But the way it was going, she probably didn’t need to do much anyway.

Sure enough, more words came from Chen Kexin before Gu Shishi even put her phone down.

[MeowMeow: I’ll preorder. How long will it take?]

Gu Shishi flipped through her calendar.

She needed to go to work the week that followed. She didn’t have today off originally either. She had switched her schedule with Ling Xiaomei.

Plus, she needed to buy the fan ribs and fan mount from Taobao. She wasn’t certain when they would arrive.

[Probably next week. I will let you know the details.]
