Chapter 119 - 119: An Acquaintance
Juliana refused, "No."
Zoe sneered at Juliana, "I think you are afraid to draw it because you have not drawn "The Peach and the Plum"."
Juliana raised her eyes and looked at her indifferently.
Zoe was a little diffident but she still straightened her neck and looked at Juliana with her chin up, "You said that my teacher Randall is no better than you, but now you dare not draw "The Peach and the Plum" in public?"
The crowd had only been watching them, but when they heard that Juliana was comparing herself with Randall, they were irritated.
Someone asked, "What\'s going on? Randall\'s no better than her?"
Zoe had only repeated what Juliana had just said, without adding the trimmings.
But even that was enough to get the crowd riled up.
Randall was not only good at ink painting but was also a cartoonist welcomed by all people.
Now, Ms. "Good for Nothing" said that Randall was not as good as her. How could they put up with that?
"Zoe, don\'t compare her to Randall. She\'s not worthy!"
" We are all painters, so I wouldn\'t have said anything. But since she insulted Randall, I can\'t bear it."
"Who invited her here? Those who came here today are all painters of some renown. She can\'t even paint. Who is she to join the activity of the Artists\' Association?"
These words were meant to ask Juliana out.
Juliana looked calmly at the painters who were pointing their fingers at her and defending Randall.
She laughed in spite of herself. These were all her fans.
But now, these fans turned on her because Wendy had gone under Randall\'s name.
Zoe was about to speak when a voice came faster than hers.
"What are you all doing? Are you guys not embarrassed to pick on one person in a group?"
Juliana looked up and saw a very youthful girl with suspender trousers and her hair in a bun.
That plump baby face looked somewhat familiar to Juliana.
Zoe looked at the girl and frowned, "Minna, we\'re not picking on her. But she has insulted my teacher, Randall."
Minna?
Hearing that name, Juliana remembered who that girl was.
Minna Jimenez had been Juliana\'s friend since childhood, who was a good girl.
The two had had a good relationship until high school, when they had had a disagreement and they had had a big fight, resulting in their relationship not being as close as before.
Later, when Juliana had decided to court Jayden, Minna had strongly disagreed, saying that Jayden had not been a good person, hence they had completely broken up.
Juliana had gotten angry when it had been rumored that Minna had had a crush on Jayden.
Juliana had thought Minna had been selfish and had never talked to her again.
Minna came forward and said, " The people you think are great might not necessarily be considered great by others. How come it\'s an insult when she has a different opinion?"
Zoe got angry, "Minna, you\'re a fan of Randall. How could you say something like that?"
Minna stood in front of Juliana, "I think if Randall was here, she wouldn\'t want to see so many of you bullying one person."
Juliana looked at Minna, who was standing in front of her and protecting her, and slightly narrowed her eyes.
Zoe did not want to ruin her teacher\'s public image, so she took a deep breath and said, "Okay, let\'s not talk about that. Let\'s talk about whether the painting "The Peach and the Plum" is an imitation of Randall\'s?"
Minna frowned and did not say anything, because she could see Randall\'s painting habits in "The Peach and the Plum" at a glance.
However, Minna soon said firmly, "I believe she has not imitated Randall."
