Chapter 126 She Is Very Beautiful
Jane's words surprised almost everyone present, especially Arnold.
He carefully asked, "Jane, are you sure?"
Back then, Arnold very much wished for Jane to inherit his skills.
Ever since he became the successor of the intangible cultural heritage of woodcarving, Arnold had
always hoped that Jane could take some time to learn from him.
Since Jane's paintings had won her many awards before, and she also had unique insights about arts,
Arnold thought there was no one more suitable than her to learn woodcarving.
But no matter how many times he had mentioned it to Jane, Jane had always refused him, so he had
no choice but to find someone else to be his apprentice.
Therefore, no one had expected Jane would take the initiative today to mention that she wanted to
learn woodcarving.
Faced with Arnold's question, Jane replied firmly, "I'm sure. I didn't want to learn it before because I
thought I couldn't learn it well, as I am a girl after all. But after I saw Dr. Lane also came here to learn, I
suddenly became very confident. So I hope Grandpa can also allow me this opportunity to learn."
For Arnold, this could be considered a joyous event.
After all, Jane was his only granddaughter. And it was true that he favored her and wanted to pass on
his lifelong skills to her.
But the problem was that he also promised Cora to let her be his last apprentice and pass on his
lifelong skills to her.
He was slightly in a dilemma, so he could only turn to look at Cora.
On the contrary, Cora was very calm. "Actually, I don't mind if Dr. Yoris wants to learn woodcarving
together. But I have promised Sir Yoris before Dr. Yoris does, so I want to be the senior."
Everyone could tell that Jane suddenly suggested today that she wanted to learn woodcarving as
Arnold's apprentice because of Cora.
But she had cleverly found an excuse for herself and concealed her envy perfectly, so she didn't mind
giving way to Cora, as well as to not embarrass Arnold.
As for Cora's suggestion to be Jane's senior, it was a slight discomfort for Jane. noveldrama
As expected, Jane didn't want to regard her as her senior. "No, this won't do. If you want to count it like
this, my grandpa has asked me since a long time ago if I want to learn woodcarving with him. If so,
then I can be counted as the most senior out of all of you."
Her half-joking tone easily resolved the previous awkward atmosphere.
Arnold finally decided. "How about this? Tonight, both of you will attend the apprenticeship ceremony
together, and thus be counted as the most junior apprentices. The other senior apprentices will regard
you as their juniors, so you have to show some respect to them, while the two of you can treat each
other as usual."
Jane seemed to be overly triumphant, but Cora was definitely aware that this was still a form of
Arnold's favoritism toward Jane.
However, it didn't matter anymore. The most important thing for her to be Arnold's apprentice this time
was to put Sara and Jane into a difficult situation by breaking into the enemy's territory, so they
wouldn't dare to take action easily. Learning skills came second.
Cora just smiled and said, "Sir Yoris may decide. I have no objection."
And next came the apprenticeship ceremony.
Cora and Jane read the apprentice vows in front of Arnold together, and the woodcarving masters that
Arnold had invited to witness the ceremony congratulated Arnold for gaining two outstanding last
apprentices in one day.
Arnold vowed to Cora and Jane, "We surely have to create achievements in the future, and let that Max
know that the Yoris family will never lose to him!"
Truthfully, this was the first time Cora met a woodcarving master, so she didn't quite know what Arnold
was talking about.
"Max?" Cora asked.
Seeing her bewildered look, a senior who appeared to be slightly older than her quickly explained to
her.
"Cora, you might not know about this, but Max is our teacher's former senior. But since the two of them
had different views, they regarded each other as a thorn in the flesh. They wished that their respective
apprentices could completely overshadow the other's apprentices in the future."
Cora was just discerning this information when another senior who looked quite young came up to chat
with her.
"Cora, do you have a boyfriend?"
"Damn it, Kevin! That's what I want to ask Cora! Don't steal my words!"
Seeing the interaction of these young people, one of the masters that Arnold invited couldn't help
teasing him, "It seems that the young apprentice you have accepted is doing well."
Arnold took the praise for his apprentice as praise for himself. He proudly said, "This kid is very
beautiful, so naturally she will have many suitors."
Yet, no one knew that this unintended remark had shaken Jane in the soul.
