[Chapter 135: Feeling Like Eating a Fly]
Li Yi handed over a check for 10 million yuan, Zhao Nan was really panicked. If she couldn’t produce the ancient painting, how could she get out of the situation?
She originally thought that Yang Yiyu deliberately mentioned 10 million yuan to make Li Yi give up, so she didn’t stop Yang Yiyu from talking.
What was the result?
Li Yi really wrote a check for 10 million yuan, and it seemed that he had to see the ancient painting.
Zhao Nan’s face froze, and she didn’t know what to do.
She glanced at Yang Yiyu.
At this moment, Yang Yiyu was smiling, and his eyes were full of confidence.
This made Zhao Nan’s eyes light up, and she thought to herself: “Could it be that he has found the ancient painting?” Zhao Nan knew Yang Yiyu well, and he was not the kind of person who talked big. On the contrary, Yang Yiyu valued his promises.
After seeing Yang Yiyu’s eyes that he was at ease with everything, Zhao Nan was still a little scared, but the arrow had been shot, so she could only choose to believe Yang Yiyu, and raised her hand with some trembling to accept the check for 10 million yuan that Li Yi handed in front of her.
Li Yi, on the other hand, became more and more proud after seeing Zhao Nan’s shaking hands, and secretly said, “Wait and see how you die. It’s not easy to deceive me with a fake painting.” In addition to his secretary, he also brought an appraisal expert with him!
Li Yi laughed and said, “Boss Zhao, let’s go to the safe to see the paintings?”
Yang Yiyun chuckled and said, “Boss Li, there’s no need to bother going to the safe. I’ve brought the ancient paintings here. Wait a minute~”
Li Yi’s face froze, and he had a bad premonition in his heart. However, when he thought about the big boss behind him who said that the ancient paintings had been stolen by a powerful thief, he felt relieved and thought that Yang Yiyun and Zhao Nan had teamed up to make a fake for him to fool him.
Thinking of this, Li Yi sneered in his heart: “Expert Lin will know it at a glance. It’s just a fake. Let me show you how good it is.”
Thinking of this in his heart, he said with a smile on his face: “Oh~ Manager Yang is really well prepared. That saves trouble. I will wait and see.”
Yang Yiyun smiled and walked out of the door directly. When he came in, he put the ancient painting behind the big flower pot at the door.
In trepidation, Zhao Nan saw Yang Yiyun walking in with a long wooden box in his hand. He didn’t know whether Yang Yiyun had found the real painting or made a fake from somewhere. At this time, Zhao Nan had no choice but to believe that Yang Yiyun brought a real painting, not a fake.
She also knew that Li Yi came prepared today. The old man behind him who had been silent was the appraisal expert when he handed over the painting last time.
Yang Yiyun walked in with a smile and opened the wooden box. He really wanted to see what Li Yi’s expression would be in a while. It must be very exciting.
“Mr. Lin, come and take a look~” Li Yi was still smiling at this time, and always believed that Yang Yiyun brought a fake.
However, Mr. Lin is an authoritative expert, and any fake cannot escape his eyes.
The old man, whom Li Yi called Mr. Lin, put on white gloves, took out a magnifying glass, and looked at the painting bit by bit.
At this time, Yang Yiyun noticed that Zhao Nan’s hands were shaking slightly, and she looked very nervous. He
walked over with a grin and took Zhao Nan’s hand in his hand and whispered: “Don’t worry~”
This was the first time he took Zhao Nan’s hand, and he was a little excited. Her hands were very soft, smooth and comfortable. Yang Yiyun was a little intoxicated by her unique body fragrance of a young girl.
Zhao Nan’s face turned red when Yang Yiyun held her hand, but she did not resist and let him hold her hand. Hearing his words “Don’t worry”, these three short words and his strong and warm hand made Zhao Nan feel at ease. She whispered, “Did you find it?”
Yang Yiyun leaned close to her ear and whispered, “It took me all night last night and I was injured. Fortunately, I found it. Don’t worry, it’s 100% real.” The wind
from Yang Yiyun’s mouth tickled Zhao Nan’s ears, making her tremble all over and her ears red. However, when he heard Yang Yiyun’s whispered words, a big stone finally fell from his heart. He was overjoyed when he realized what
was going on, but when he recalled that Yang Yiyun said he was injured, he couldn’t help but worry, “Where is the injury? Is it serious? Have you been to the hospital?”
“Hehe, it’s okay, it’s not a big deal.” Yang Yiyun was very happy to see Zhao Nan’s genuine concern. Which boy doesn’t like to be cared for by his girlfriend?
In fact, he was stabbed by Tang Long’s flying knife last night, and he used his true qi to repair it overnight, leaving no scars. He told Zhao Nan just to show his contribution, and the result was obvious. He was very satisfied with Zhao Nan’s reaction.
Just as the two were whispering, the expert Lin Lao also finished looking at the ancient painting.
Li Yi couldn’t wait to ask: “How is it, Mr. Lin, is it a fake?” In his heart, he never thought that Yang Yiyu could bring the original.
At this moment, Zhao Nan couldn’t help but feel a little nervous and looked at Mr. Lin.
Only Yang Yiyu knew the result in his heart. He didn’t look at Mr. Lin, but his eyes were on Li Yi’s face. He wanted to see what Li Yi’s reaction would be? He
only heard Mr. Lin say: “Mr. Li, this is undoubtedly the original!”
Mr. Lin’s short words sounded like thunder in Li Yi’s ears. Thinking that he had heard it wrong, he asked Mr. Lin: “What? Mr. Lin, you…you…say it again, I didn’t understand it clearly?”
“Mr. Li, this is undoubtedly the original painting with the inscription of the Tang King in “Twenty-four Ministers of Lingyan Pavilion.” This time Mr. Lin said it in detail.
Li Yi’s whole body trembled, and then he shouted: “Impossible, how is it possible? You must have seen it wrong, this painting has been stolen a long time ago…”
When Li Yi said this, the secretary beside him pulled his sleeve, and he realized that he had spoken out of turn, and stopped with a grim look on his face.
Zhao Nan held Yang Yiyun’s hand with sweat on her palm. She looked at Yang Yiyun with gratitude and breathed a sigh of relief. At this moment, she was truly relaxed. The smile and confidence of the domineering female CEO returned to her face.
Yang Yiyun whispered in his ear with a smug look: “You have to agree to one condition of mine later.”
“Okay, don’t say one or two.” Zhao Nan, who was in a good mood, agreed to Yang Yiyun without thinking.
At this time, Mr. Lin was questioned by Li Yi, and he snorted coldly: “Mr. Li, I, Lin Kang, have been in the industry for most of my life, and I have never been wrong in the way of ancient paintings. Besides, I was also present to appraise this painting on the day you signed the contract with Zhao’s Auction Company. Could I be wrong after a few days? Since Mr. Li doesn’t believe it, please ask Mr. Li to ask someone else to appraise it. Goodbye!”
“No…no, Mr. Lin, I mean…I mean…Mr. Lin, Mr. Lin…” Li Yi hurriedly apologized to Mr. Lin, but Mr. Lin ignored him and walked out of Zhao Nan’s office directly.
It is true that Mr. Lin is the expert he invited, but he is a person with professional ethics. It is impossible for him to speak for Li Yi. It is impossible to tell whether the original is a fake.
After Mr. Lin left, Li Yi’s face turned green and red, as if he had eaten a fly. He knew that since Mr. Lin said that the painting was an original, it must be an original. Mr. Lin is a nationally renowned professor and expert in ancient paintings. He has never made a mistake in the ancient paintings he has appraised. At
this moment, Li Yi was so embarrassed
that he wanted to vomit blood. Ten million yuan was just wasted.
But Yang Yiyu didn’t miss the opportunity to scold him. He smiled and said, “How about Mr. Li? Do you want to invite a few experts to appraise it together?”
Li Yi saw Yang Yiyu’s smiling face, and he hated him so much. He understood that Yang Yiyu was digging a pit for him to bury him, but today he jumped into it himself.
What was even more embarrassing was that he was the one who insisted on seeing the ancient paintings today. Thinking back to how aggressive he was to Zhao Nan just now, and looking at the current situation, it seemed to be completely reversed.
“No, no, no… no need. Mr. Lin is an authority in this area. I believe in Mr. Lin. Since we have seen the ancient paintings, I have something else to do, so I will take my leave first. We will meet at the auction in five days.” Li Yi said with a red face. He did not want to stay for even a minute. He was so embarrassed today.
He came to slap others in the face, but now he is being slapped in the face.
After saying that, Li Yi and his secretary forced a smile to Yang Yiyu and Zhao Nan, and turned around and left.
But at this time, Zhao Nan slowly said, “Mr. Li, wait a minute~”
Li Yi’s body stiffened and turned back and said, “Mr. Zhao, do you have any other instructions?”
