Yan Hans sudden realization brought to light the limitations of her own perspective and foresight. It became apparent that Xia Wan possessed a

broader and more long-term vision. In accordance with her insights, many essential actions should be undertaken.

Xia Chen wholeheartedly concurred with Xia Wans viewpoint on this matter. The collective discussion that followed further solidified their shared understanding. Even Xia Fengs ambitious career trajectory had been meticulously laid out.

A spark ignited within Yan Hans eyes as she absorbed the discourse. It was as though she could already envision Xia Feng ascending to a prominent position within the art world.

Amidst the ongoing conversation, Xia Feng returned home to an eerie spectacle. The a.s.sembled family fixed their gazes on him in unison, an intensity emanating from their eyes that sent s.h.i.+vers down his spine.

Taken aback, Xia Feng involuntarily stepped back and stammered, Why are you all looking at me like that?

I got held up drawing some blackboard notices at school, thats all. Im perfectly fine, Xia Feng hastily rea.s.sured, believing their scrutiny was due to concerns about his well-being.

With an air of excitement, Yan Han advanced towards Xia Feng, scrutinizing him closely.

Now, tell me candidly, do you have a pa.s.sion for drawing?

Although puzzled by Yan Hans query, Xia Feng nodded without hesitation. Yes, I enjoy it. When Im drawing, I find tranquility. I can immerse myself in the realm of my imagination.

Chen MO nodded approvingly. Xia Feng derives satisfaction from the process of drawing, which is crucial for mastering the art.

Should his interest endure, hell willingly dedicate himself to mastering the craft. Perseverance shall yield substantial results in the field of art.

Understanding gradually dawned upon Xia Feng. He gazed at Yan Han in astonishment. Mom, are you suggesting I pursue art seriously?

Xia Wan took the initiative to rise and elucidated, Big brother, while academic studies hold significance, embracing your pa.s.sions is equally vital.

Subsequently, Xia Wan unveiled their proposed course of action to Xia Feng.

Their blueprint entailed securing an art instructor for him and arranging trips to Beijing during breaks to interact with an art expert.

Xia Fengs heart raced with excitement. His ardor for art had always remained concealed within him.

Aware of a fellow cla.s.smate who ardently pursued art, Xia Feng had observed the cla.s.smates parents held steady jobs at a bank, enjoying financial security.

Allegedly, this cla.s.smates monthly expenditure on art supplies such as paper, pens, and paints could easily reach 100 yuan.

The revelation left Xia Feng flabbergasted, deterring him from ever disclosing his interest in art. He resolved to stay back at school that day only because his seatmate had enthusiastically recommended him as the better artist to the teacher.

Upon viewing his typically impromptu doodles, the teacher expressed contentment and tasked him with ill.u.s.trating the cla.s.sroom bulletin. Encouraging him to contemplate art cla.s.ses, the teachers words were acknowledged but never truly entertained out of concern for his familys financial strain.

Despite his sisters lucrative earnings, Xia Feng regarded her income as distinct from his familys communal resources. Additionally, the sustainability of the familys newfound financial stability remained uncertain.

Surveying the abundance of clothes in his sisters boutique, Xia Feng pondered the steady stream of customers many entering, few purchasing.

A gnawing apprehension manifested within him, fearing that the boutiques profits wouldnt cover its operational expenses in the long haul.

After a brief internal struggle, Xia Feng shook his head resolutely. No, I dont wish to delve into art. Ill concentrate on my academic studies.

Unbeknownst to Xia Feng, his inner turmoil was laid bare before Yan Han, who perceived his concern. She promptly intervened, stating, Its already in motion. Weve secured an art instructor for you. Henceforth, youll dedicate weekends to honing your artistic skills at home. Whats more, weve already covered the expenses.

Xia Chen cast an astonished gaze at Yan Han. When did she manage to arrange an art teacher for Xia Feng?

As the ever-present figure in both school and home settings, Xia Chen couldnt recall any instance of Yan Han consulting an art instructor.

Gradually, a realization dawned upon him Yan Han had cunningly cornered Xia Feng into a position where he couldnt refuse art education.

In accordance with this revelation, Xia Chen extended his cooperation, adding, Indeed, weve found someone for you. Refusing to learn would amount to a waste of our resources.

With everyone voicing unanimous support, Xia Feng found himself capitulating to the plan. Post-dinner, Yan Han departed under the pretext of bidding farewell to Chen Mo..
