Following the address given by her art teacher, Song Jiawen walked down a quiet alleyway and came upon the entrance to a four-courtyard house.
She stood in front of the pitch-dark door, slightly shocked, and after hesitating for quite some time, she finally raised her hand and tried knocking on the door.
With a creak, the door was opened from the inside, and a young man in his twenties with a round face stood there. First, he scrutinized Song Jiawen from head to toe, a flash of astonishment in his eyes, then he asked, "Can I help you?"
"Is Teacher Song here?" she inquired.
"You're looking for Teacher Song? Do you have an introduction letter?"
An introduction letter?
Song Jiawen went silent for a moment before she spoke, "Teacher Liu Meng referred me here; she has previously taken my paintings to Teacher Song to help with selling them."
"Selling your paintings? Teacher Liu Meng?"
