After a long time, Ye Hongwei's eyes finally left the two paintings. He couldn't hold back as he exclaimed, "Mr. Mei's works are truly eye-openers, amazing… amazing!"
"This painting is called Heaven and Earth--the dragon protects the heavens, and the tiger protects the Earth. It looks like two separate paintings but actually, if you put them together, it becomes one entire art piece." Mei Jing Zhou smiled.
"Heaven and Earth… the dragon is the king of the Heavens, the tiger guards the Earth… great name!"
The group of elders started commenting.
"Mr. Ye, I'm giving these two paintings as a birthday gift to you. I hope you'll accept them," Mei Jing Zhou said.
"This… is too much…" Although Ye Hongwei was exceptionally happy, he naturally had to refuse this expensive gift.
"Mr. Ye, you're too kind. They're just some works I did while I was bored. I'm happy as long as you like it," Mei Jing Zhou laughed.
