The person-in-charge of AK Magazine was suddenly greeted, so he looked a little lost.
He turned around to look at Jiang Man. After confirming that it was a face that he had never seen before, he frowned and asked, “Who are you?”.
The moment he said this, the students who had been heckling him earlier all shut up.
The people around looked at each other. They obviously did not expect this kind of scene.
The air seemed to be filled with awkwardness.
“What’s going on…?”
“I don’t know…”
Jiang Man was nervous. She was afraid that she would be exposed. However, at the same time, she wanted to pretend to be a big shot in front of her classmates, so she forced a smile.
“I’m the artist who serialized AK Magazine in the early years, Fox.”
Hearing Jiang Man’s words, the person in charge of AK magazine frowned.
He thought about it carefully and looked at her inquisitively.
“I remember now. You seemed to have participated in the drawing competition some time ago, and you even got a runner-up.”
At this point, he looked at Jiang Li and Hu Miao, then turned to look at Jiang Man with a sharp gaze.
“I understand Fox’s painting style. It’s impossible for her to be at your level.”
“If her early paintings were really at your level, I wouldn’t support her unruly style. It’s precisely because of her superb skills that she has a unique personality, which has allowed her works to be popular in the market for many years.”
At this point, the person in charge seemed to think of the painting that Jiang Man had drawn in the drawing competition, and his eyes were filled with displeasure.
“I was also there at the time. When I saw you, you were quite lacking compared to the first place’s innovation. Moreover, you had no emotions and no soul. It was completely different from what you had serialized in the past. Your brushwork was clearly not as good as before. A good artist should be calm under any circumstances. However, you’re easily angered.”
“Are you really Fox?”
This could be considered a public question.
He directly brought up the topic that Jiang Man had been worried about.
Jiang Man’s expression did not look good for a moment, especially since the other party was criticizing her in a field that she was proud of.
Her heart became even more panicked, and her eyes darted around.
“I’m sorry, but I was kidnapped a while ago, and it caused some psychological problems. I was afraid of this incident during that period of time, and I didn’t practice, resulting in my hands becoming rusty, so this incident happened…”
At this point, tears seemed to flow down her face.
“I’m sorry, I just wanted to say hello to you, senior. I didn’t expect such a thing to happen… I’ll definitely practice more in the future to not embarrass you…”
How much did the person-in-charge of AK Magazine know about drawing?
However, when he saw the little girl crying, he did not say it out loud, even though he still insisted on his own thoughts.
He could not bully a little girl in public.
“Okay.”
He continued to look at Jiang Li and smiled. Then, he reached out his hand and said, “I hope we can work together happily.”
Jiang Li nodded at him and extended his hand as well. “Let’s work together happily.”
Under everyone’s complicated gazes, the person in charge of AK magazine abandoned Jiang Man, who was a top artist, Fox. He turned around and left after negotiating a partnership with Jiang Li.
After he left, the people beside Jiang Man started to become arrogant.
“Heh! I thought that the two of you were so skilled that even Jiang Man wasn’t better than you two. I didn’t expect that you could only take advantage of Jiang Man when she was a little weak!”
“That’s right. I thought you two were great characters. I didn’t expect you to be villains!”
“I think you two might be the criminals who kidnapped Jiang Man! If she hadn’t been kidnapped, she wouldn’t have lost to you two this time. You two must be jealous of her!”
The people around them were full of doubts. Jiang Li did not stop smiling as he looked at them indifferently.
However, her gaze passed through them and landed on Jiang Man.
“My dear sister, do you also think that I, as your elder sister, have harmed you?”
