294 What Exactly Happened Back Then? (1)

When Shen Ruojing unscrolled the calligraphy pieces, everyone’s emotions were very complex.

It was because they didn’t think that these two works could be genuine.

Old Fifth sneered. “You actually dare to open them? Is it because you feel that no one in our Bai Family understands calligraphy? Today, I’m going to let you witness how I do a verification!”

...

After saying that, he continued smirking and walked toward one of the pieces.

“Let me tell you something. Madman’s works are the hardest to imitate. This is because the smoothness of his writing is extremely difficult to copy. As for this work, from the start of the character stroke till the end, it is…”

His finger followed the arc of the first stroke downward, preparing to find a place that looked disjointed, snagged, or unsmooth so he could mock them.

Bai Zhongzhang who was at the side took a step forward and explained, “Miss Yun, you might not know this, but although my fifth cousin is young, he is a proud protege of the Calligraphy Association’s president. His skill in identifying and verifying a calligraphy piece is top-notched. So, it will be for the best if you admit this is fake before he determines so.”

Yun Wei nervously clenched her fists.

She felt very guilty because she obviously knew these were fakes.

However, her cousin and cousin-in-law were saying that these were genuine works, so she naturally couldn’t expose them.

So, she chose not to speak.

Fourth Madam Bai at the side pursed her lips tightly, preparing to endure the mocking that would surely happen. She was also thinking about what she could do to protect her son’s marriage.

Even if the Yun Family couldn’t take out a genuine work of Madman’s, Yun Wei’s performance today was simply too dazzling.

Fourth Madam Bai liked that a lot!

In other words, was the Yun Family also swindled by someone?

Everyone in the room stared fixedly at Old Fifth. Other than him and Old Master Bai, the others only knew calligraphy slightly and weren’t skilled enough to do an identification.

Hence, after Old Fifth’s fingers finished tracing the first word and continued all the way until he reached the last, he suddenly froze.

Old Fifth. “??”

Where was the snag?

Where was it?

He was stunned!

Bai Zhongzhang looked at him. “Fifth bro, where’s the unsmooth part?”

Old Fifth. “…Hmm, there are no problems with the smoothness. It seems that the imitator is truly capable. However, Madman’s calligraphy works have a special characteristic. He hated troublesome things, so he simplified things frequently. For example, he would just draw a circle and use two strokes to round it up for all ‘田’ characters. Let us take a look at the ‘田’…eh, this is correct. Hmm, in addition, Madman also liked to write things in a continuous flow because it is easier and would exude the feeling of everything being written in a single breath…Eh, this calligraphy work was written in a single breath too…”

The more Old Fifth spoke, the more stumped he was.

Why did he suddenly feel that these works were genuine ones?!

However, he was certain that the ones he had torn earlier were the real ones!

Even so, the contents of the torn ones were exactly the same as what he was seeing now!

When Old Fifth was dumbstruck, Bai Zhongzhang asked, “What’s the matter?”

Yun Wei and Bai Xiaojiu exchanged a mutual glance and held their breaths.

Bai Xiaojiu lifted his head and saw the questioning gaze from his grandpa. He then showed a helpless expression and indicated that the calligraphy pieces earlier had been torn indeed. These two were fakes…

Old Master Bai then lowered his head in disappointment.

But at this moment, everyone in the room suddenly heard Old Fifth inhaling in surprise as he gasped, “H…how can these two calligraphy pieces be genuine ones?!”

Genuine ones?

Everyone in the room was confused now.

So, the torn ones were fake, and these two were the real ones instead?

Bai Zhongzhang’s expression changed. He frowned. “Have you checked clearly?”

Chu Cichen’s icy voice rang out in the room, “What? Does Mr. Bai hope that your fifth cousin didn’t check clearly? Or is it because this result is outside of your expectations?”

His doubtful voice caused Bai Zhongzhang’s countenance to change.

Chu Cichen took a step forward and put away the two calligraphy pieces. After that, he looked at everyone. “The Yun Family is indeed from Ford City and cannot be compared to the four great families of the capital. However, the females of the Yun Family will absolutely not stand here to get bullied! This marriage is something that the two parties already agreed to. However, the Bai Family has humiliated and insulted my cousin multiple times today. If the moral quality of the four great families is all of this standard, we might as well cancel the marriage!”

His words resounded powerfully and were strong like steel!

After the Bai Family proposed marriage to one of the Yun Family’s daughters, even Yun Zhengyang had never thought of rejecting this. Moreover, Fourth Madam Bai had personally come and given a billion worth of betrothal gifts, with a majority coming from her own dowry. This caused the Yun Family to feel warmth in their hearts.

But in truth, they still felt a sense of inferiority deep down in their bones.

Because of it, they would never dare to seek fairness even if they were wronged.

However, at this moment, Chu Cichen stood there valiantly. It felt as though there were thousands of troops behind, backing him up. His unwavering courage and confidence caused everyone in the Bai Family to feel for an instant that their statuses couldn’t match up to him…
