“Good evening, ladies and gentlemen.” As the literary event commenced, a fair, stout, middle-aged
man went up on stage. Flashing a welcoming smile, he greeted the audience respectfully.
“My name is Keanu Jankow, and I’m the manager at Regal Court. Thank you for gracing us with

Keanu continued with a smile, “It is once again the night of our quarterly literary exchange. Regal Court
has selected a precious treasure from Treasure Pavilion to serve as the highlight of our evening and
liven the crowd.
“Of course, our primary goal is for everyone to engage in friendly literature discussions, not
competition.
“Mr. Jankow, what marvelous treasure has Regal Court prepared for us? Could you grant us a

“Yeah, we came here for the treasure. I hope it’s worth it,” many others echoed the sentiment. “Dear
guests, please, be patient. I’ll have it brought forth shortly for all to admire.”
Keanu nodded and signaled to the two men standing beside him. They immediately understood and
brought up a rectangular wooden box.
The wooden box measured 2 feet wide and 5 feet long. Crafted entirely from silkwood, the box itself
held considerable value. One could only imagine the worth of its contents.
With an audible click, Keanu opened the wooden box slowly. Under the watchful eyes of the attendees,
he unveiled a carefully framed painting within.
The painting depicted a woman dressed in royal attire. Sitting beneath a gazebo, her gaze was drawn
to the snowy landscape outside. The woman had an elegant figure and an otherworldly presence, with
only half her face visible.
Yet, her beauty was breathtaking, captivating every onlooker. Her eyes were especially bewitching. It
was as if they were peering deep into one’s soul.
The exceptionally beautiful woman was set against the backdrop of the pristine snowscape. It created a
harmonious look, culminating in an exquisite masterpiece.
“It’s so beautiful!” The room fell into a reverent hush after the painting was unveiled. The painting
mesmerized everyone present. It wasn’t only beautiful, but it also seemed to convey profound
emotions. The more they gazed upon it, the more captivated they became.
“I can’t believe such beauty exists.” Cody was utterly stunned, his eyes practically shining with wonder.
Though he was not one easily swayed by physical beauty, he found himself unable to look away. Her
beauty and charisma were bewitching, particularly in the way she expressed her emotions.
“I’d willingly give up ten years of my life if I could marry a woman like that!” Caldwell said, gulping
repeatedly.

painting to have such enchanting power.
“Hmph! There’s no way such a perfect woman exists in this world. She’s definitely a product of the
artist’s imagination,” Harper said, sounding jealous.
She was confident in her appearance. However, she still felt inferior when compared to the woman in
the painting. That was why she was convinced that the woman in the painting was fictional.
“Mr. Jankow, what’s the story behind this painting? And who is the lady in it? a man asked.
“To be honest, this is actually the work of Andrei Walser. It is titled ‘ Enchanting Elegance’,” Keanu
explained.
“What? This is Andrei Walser’s work?”
“Andrei Walser? That renowned literary figure, known for his poetry and paintings?”
“That’s right! Andrei Walser is celebrated as a contemporary genius in both art and poetry. Every
painting of his is considered a priceless treasure!”
