Chapter 213: 236

236 Ancestral Teachings

The words were tidy and elegant, and each stroke was clearly defined. Although they were handwritten, they looked as though they had been printed on by a machine.

Also, the aura that the hand exuded, be it holding the brush or draining the ink, looked extremely graceful.

The words were beautiful and the amount of force behind each stroke was formidable. As a result, the aura of the words was also grand and majestic.

It truly had the feel of Yan Zhenqing’s* style. In addition, this wasn’t written purely through copying. One could feel Shen Ruojing’s personal style within.

Director Liu drew in a deep breath.

He stared at the screen and for an instant, he felt his breath become softer as though he was afraid of disturbing this beauty who was also a great calligrapher!

And behind him, the few people who were waiting to see a joke were also stunned.

Yun Lu and Qian Nanyin were dumbfounded and only felt that her writing was very beautiful, but they had no idea whether the writing was good or bad. Qian Nanyin frowned and asked, “Yuyi, are her words considered nice?”

One couldn’t connect their strokes using this style, so the overall feel would look very tidy and complete, presenting a pleasing sight to the eyes. However, to people who didn’t know about calligraphy, they would only feel that it was beautiful but had no idea if the standard of the written words was considered good or not.

Yun Lu also looked at Wen Yuyi.

Wen Yuyi basically didn’t mask her astonished expression.

She stared fixedly at the screen before lifting her head to look at Shen Ruojing, revealing a look of disbelief.

As a member of the calligraphy association who mainly practiced regular script, she naturally knew how great the written words were!

B…but how could it be so good?!

Wasn’t she Anonymous? Calligraphy was something that one had to take a long time to master. Other than learning those musical instruments, she still had time to learn calligraphy?!

How could this be possible?!

Just when she wasn’t able to speak from shock, Director Liu answered Qian Nanyin, “It’s good, extremely well-written! Don’t disturb her…”

The written letter exuded an aura of being written by a calligraphy expert!

It was an unknown number of times better compared to Wen Yuyi!

Director Liu had shot several period dramas before, hence, he naturally had a certain level of understanding toward calligraphy.

Qian Nanyin frowned. “How is this possible, she…”

“Shh, don’t make noise!”

Director Liu glared at him angrily, causing Qian Nanyin to hurriedly shut up.

For this part, there was no need for any conversation as dubbing would be added in at the later parts. Hence, Director Liu didn’t enforce silence on the scene.

But at this moment, everyone who watched Shen Ruojing subconsciously held in their breaths as they were afraid they might disturb her.

Yun Wei and Bai Xiaojiu stood at the side. They weren’t looking at the camera.

Because of the far distance and Yun Wei’s height not being tall enough, she couldn’t see the words that Shen Ruojing wrote. However, when her cousin lifted the brush, the director fell silent immediately and even revealed a look of joy. So, she immediately knew that there were no more problems!

She stood on tiptoe and wanted to see how Shen Ruojing’s writing was. But just when she did so, her balance became unstable and she stumbled.

Bai Xiaoyun silently supported her with his arm.

Yun Wei craned her neck. “My cousin must have written quite well, right?”

“She wrote extremely well.” Bai Xiaojiu was tall and could faintly see some of those words from this angle. He gently evaluated, “Miss Shen must have spent a lot of time practicing the regular script, and her level is close to an expert. She probably can pass down her own style after a few more years of practice.”

Yun Wei was immediately shocked. “My cousin is so impressive?”

“Yeah, very.” After Bai Xiaojiu finished speaking, he released his hold on Yun Wei’s arm.

Yun Wei then heaved a heavy sigh of relief. “That’s good then. I don’t have to beg others later on.”

Bai Xiaojiu looked at her serious appearance while being inwardly happy. He couldn’t help but smile. “Your teeth are pretty strong, so why don’t you bite them?”

“Tsk.” Yun Wei pouted. “I find them filthy.”

When these words rang out, Bai Xiaojiu’s low-sounding laughter erupted.

Yun Wei glanced at him. “What kind of expression is that? Let me tell you this, not everyone is qualified to be bitten by me! If a dog bites me, should I bite it back? I would probably have a mouthful of fur in my mouth then.”

Bai Xiaojiu. “?”

He tried enduring his urge to laugh but ultimately failed. “In that case, Ms. Yun must have really regarded me highly so you bit me?”

Yun Wei also curled her lips. “No need for thanks.”

Bai Xiaojiu could no longer control his laughter.

After hearing his low-sounding laughter, Yun Wei also broke into a smile.

The laughter and smiles landed in Qian Nanyin’s eyes again. Right now, a layer of frost appeared on his face as a few hints of anger burned in his heart.

Yun Wei usually couldn’t even be bothered to look at him. But right now, she was smiling and laughing with a complete stranger. This was simply too much!

Wen Yuyi didn’t notice all these. At this moment, all of her attention was on Shen Ruojing.

She would need half an hour to write that particular letter.

After all, there was a lot of content in this letter and half an hour could already be considered fast.

The pages filled with regular script were placed there. Even if one disregarded the content, just the writing alone was pleasing enough to spark joy.

At this moment, Director Liu suddenly had a thought in his mind.

After the drama was aired, these two pages of regular script would probably become wildly popular. Hence, he had to retain the original documents. At that time, he could place them at his home, so his guests would be able to admire it!

For a time, Director Liu was so focused on the letter that he forgot to shout ‘cut’.

Actually, the footage for this scene was already enough.

The latter scenes where Yun Lu picked up the written letter and blew dry the brush had already been shot.

But Shen Ruojing didn’t know about this.

After she finished writing it, she didn’t hear the director shouting ‘cut’. Since the director didn’t stop her, as she was also influenced by Jing Zhen who was a very serious actor, she should continue to act.

But what should she do?

Shen Ruojing stood up and walked to the furnace at the side before tossing the two written pages in. Sparks immediately soared into the air…

Director Liu who wanted to store the pages. “???”

He could only stare at those two pages being burned…They were incinerated!!!

“Stop, stop, stop!” Director Liu shouted and quickly rushed into the scene, grabbing the two pages out from the fire before stamping on them with his feet to smother the flames. When he looked again, half of both pages were already burned.

Director Liu. “!!!!’

He finally shouted ‘cut’.

Shen Ruojing rubbed her wrist.

Regular script was pretty troublesome to write as she couldn’t connect any strokes at all. This made her writing speed slow down even more. This was also the reason why she didn’t like regular script.

In her heart, Shen Ruojing had always disdained the regular script, but at the next moment, she saw Director Liu staring at the two written pages as though he was looking at a treasure. He almost broke down in tears as he looked at her. “Why did you burn them?!”

Shen Ruojing. “…”

She hesitated and said, “If we follow the plot, shouldn’t the letter be burned?”

“…” Director Liu felt his heart bleeding.

He looked at Shen Ruojing and asked, “You said you only know a little about regular script with your standards?”

“Hmm.”

Shen Ruojing nodded. “Compared to true ancient experts, my writing is indeed a little lacking.”

It would be a different thing if they asked her to write cursive…

The others. “…”

Who would compare themselves with ancient experts?!

What a joke, her words caused all of them to believe her just now, okay?

At this moment, a voice rang out, “Jingjing, we heard you are acting as a writer substitute here!”

Jing Zhen and Shen Ruojing hurriedly came over after hearing the conversation. Jing Zhen had a nervous look on his face. “Is it passable with your…ugly writing?”

Ugly writing???

Director Liu involuntarily lowered his head to look at the page remnants in his hand. He suddenly recalled Shen Ruojing saying that she only knew ‘a little’ about regular script and felt that he understood now.

(Is your level of modesty so high due to your ancestral teachings?!)

However, Qian Nanyin didn’t know how shocked everyone was due to Shen Ruojing’s writing. At this moment, he looked at Jing Zhen and asked, “Who is this?”

Wen Yuyi immediately answered, “He’s Miss Shen’s father.”

After saying that, Wen Yuyi emphasized, “He is an actor here.”

“Actor? This means that he is the husband of your grand-aunt’s illegitimate daughter?” Qian Nanyin revealed a look of contempt.

And at this moment, Bai Xiaojiu also caught sight of Jing Zhen.

His entire body stiffened.

W…wasn’t this guy the exact same big boss from the picture in his phone?

[1] Ancient Chinese calligrapher, military general, and politician. Yan Zhenqing was a leading Chinese calligrapher and a loyal governor of the Tang Dynasty.
