Xiao Yanzhong describes Tao Jingying’s growth history in a Q-version comic. She is described as wearing eyes, curly hair, and being good at musical instruments. He describes her as Mafalda, the protagonist of the comic “Baby Sees the World” translated by Sanmao, who is brave, straightforward, and Smart and compassionate, Tao Jingying said modestly: “I don’t know if my subsequent performance met the teacher’s observations and expectations. Maybe the teacher overestimated me, or maybe the teacher was encouraging me.”
In her eyes, the cartoonist Xiao Yanzhong is a cool and expressionless person, but his works are very humorous, cute, and vivid.“Thank you teacher for once adding the finishing touch to my album, and thank you teacher for seeing at a glance that my life is full of incredible (occasionally absurd) comic elements.”wishing him that he can now stay away from illness and be happy in heaven.

Many people left messages of condolences, “I wish Teacher Xiao is safe, healthy and happy in heaven”, “What a great and humorous teacher”, “Teacher Xiao has a good journey”, “Bless you that you are no longer sick”.
