Chapter 342 - 342 Looking at the Painting342 Looking at the Painting
He realized that as the two of them interacted, the more they understood each other, the easier it was for them to be attracted to Gu Man’s charm.
She was like Pandora’s box. You never knew what she was hiding. On the contrary, it was this mysteriousness that fascinated people and made them unable to extricate themselves.
Xiang Yin might not have realized it himself, but when the two of them interacted, he had long abandoned his initial goal and became more and more engrossed.
Someone had set up tea in the backyard. Boss Zhao had arranged for it to be prepared in advance. The few of them sat down in the courtyard. Gu Man’s gaze landed on Boss Zhao, waiting for him to speak.
Although he had only interacted with her once, Boss Zhao knew that Gu Man’s personality was straightforward, so he did not beat around the bush and directly stated his goal.
“I know that you have some special abilities and can appraise treasures. That’s why I came. Don’t worry, whether the cooperation succeeds or not, I won’t tell anyone about this.”
His directness surprised Gu Man. She originally thought that the few of them would talk a lot of nonsense, but Boss Zhao’s directness was to her liking. However, when she looked at Boss Zhao’s gaze, he seemed to have misunderstood something. However, her ability could be said to be appraising treasures.
“Boss Zhao, you have a discerning eye.”
Gu Man said this ambiguously. She neither admitted nor denied it, but Boss Zhao already understood.
His gaze landed on Gu Man’s hand. Thinking of the place where he had met her just now, he immediately guessed Gu Man’s motive for coming here.
“Miss Gu, are you here to participate in the auction?”
Gu Man nodded and did not stand on ceremony. She placed the things she had bid for on the table.
Seeing that Boss Zhao’s gaze was fixed on the painting and the meteorite, she knew that he was interested.
Boss Zhao looked at the two items and said casually, “Miss Gu, can you do me the honor of letting me see what good things Miss Gu has won at the auction?”
Gu Man raised her eyebrows slightly and did not reject Boss Zhao’s request. She just did not know if he would still agree to their cooperation after seeing these two things.
After all, ordinary people would not be able to see the use of the meteorite. Furthermore, the painting was only a fake.
She pushed the thing in her hand forward. Boss Zhao understood and unfolded the painting first.
Looking at the painting in his hand, he immediately exclaimed in surprise, “This is Wang Zhi’s painting?”
Gu Man did not expect Boss Zhao to know a lot about calligraphy and painting. She could tell at a glance that this was Wang Zhi’s style. However, she would disappoint Boss Zhao. This was just an imitation.
Gu Man smiled and shook her head. “Boss Zhao, take a closer look.”
Upon hearing this, Boss Zhao also sensed something amiss. He leaned closer to the painting and took a closer look. He immediately said, “There are traces of unveiling on this painting, and the traces are very new. Could it be that this painting is fake?”
Boss Zhao was a little uncertain about the final doubts. After all, this painting could be completely faked.
Gu Man nodded in agreement with Boss Zhao.
Just as she nodded, she saw Boss Zhao shake his head in disbelief. He looked at the painting in his hand and sighed.
However, he did not have any intention of looking down on it. Instead, he caressed the painting lovingly. “Even if it’s not Wang Zhi’s painting, it must be a master’s painting.”
“Boss Zhao, I’m sorry to disappoint you. This painting was painted by a female artist, and she signed it off with Man.”
Boss Zhao frowned. He seemed to be searching for an artist with the character Man in their name in history, but unfortunately, he couldn’t find any.
Even so, he did not show any contempt on his face.
“Miss Gu, you can’t say that. To have such superb painting skills, it can’t be a nameless junior. It can only be said that her work has yet to be discovered by the world. If it’s discovered in the future, the value of the painting in Miss Gu’s hands will increase by hundreds of times.”
His slightly thick and chubby fingers caressed the painting lovingly. Soon, he put the painting back into the silk.
