Chapter 1225: Winning Self-Righteously

Wen Xinya and Xia Ruya returned to their seats.

Xia Ruya watched as everyone stared at her with looks of sympathy, pity, disdain, and contempt. Resentment simmered within her heart and she could not take the insult at all. She had never once thought of losing.

I'll remember this clearly and one day, I'll pay it all back. These people will all succumb to me and lick my feet to please me.

I'll never let Wen Xinya off, either.

Although Wen Xinya was elated to have defeated Xia Ruya, she knew that she had taken a shortcut. But, who said that shortcuts were not a skill?

She may not be as skilled as Xia Ruya in painting, but the structure and overall appeal of her painting were much more intricate and exquisite compared to Xia Ruya's painting of peonies. Hence, it was only understandable that Wen Xinya would win.
