Chapter 1407 - 1407 Watching The Clown Act

1407 Watching The Clown Act

Everyone present was an expert in cultural relic restoration. They also wanted to see the original appearance of this painting. After a while, a group of people gathered around He Wenxian.

He Wenxian smiled like a flower and stood gracefully in the middle of the crowd.

The person who spoke just now hurriedly took out his phone and clicked on a photo. “This is the original appearance of the ancient painting. I saw it two years ago when I went to an exhibition. I heard that after the exhibition ended, that painting was bought by a young woman.

“This ancient painting is rich in content and has complicated colors. I wasn’t confident in repairing it, so I took a photo. I was originally wondering how a young lady could repair such a severely damaged ancient painting. I didn’t expect that the person who bought this painting back then was Miss He!”

The person who spoke was handsome. He was in his 40s and was quite famous in the cultural relics world.

Everyone leaned forward to look at the photo on his phone. They could vaguely recognize that it was the same painting. They did not expect He Wenxian to restore it so perfectly. No wonder everyone said that the Thousand Faces Immortal Doctor was a genius in the cultural relics world. Her restoration skills had already reached the top in the country. And she was still so young.

Qiao Xi sat in a corner and watched the commotion with interest.

Unknowingly, Gu Zheng was sitting beside her with a trace of coldness on his body. He asked gently, “Xi Xi, what are you looking at?”

“I’m just watching a clown put on an act!” Qiao Xi’s tone was filled with disdain.

The man next to her was tall, handsome, and well-defined. His sharp eyebrows were raised, and his thin lips were pursed tightly. He looked straight at her with a pair of charming eyes, making her subconsciously indulge in him.

He moved closer and naturally pulled Qiao Xi into his embrace. His low and hoa.r.s.e voice sounded in her ears. “Xi Xi, how much longer are you going to look at her? Isn’t this the best time to expose her?”

Qiao Xi’s surroundings were filled with Gu Zheng’s scorching aura. Her cheeks were slightly red as she lowered her head in response. “Let’s wait a little longer.”

With He Wenxian’s character, she would definitely try her best to let everyone see this painting. When all the seniors and experts arrived and saw this painting, they would definitely praise He Wenxian.

Qiao Xi really wanted to hear how those seniors evaluated the restoration work of this painting. If she exposed He Wenxian now, she would be shy when she heard all their praises afterward.

Gu Zheng seemed to understand her thoughts and smiled gently at her. “I’ll listen to you, Xi Xi.”

On the other hand, someone asked, “Miss He, the cultural relic appraisal expert, Old Master Li, is also present. Do you want to show this painting to Old Master Li?”

He Wenxian was delighted.

Old Master Li was the previous head of the Li family in Li City. He had a n.o.ble status and was a famous cultural relic appraisal expert in the country. He had studied cultural relic restoration for decades and was extremely famous in the cultural relic world.

When He Wenxian heard that Old Master Li’s granddaughter had a good relations.h.i.+p with Qiao Xi, she was instantly interested.

Her father said that he would not allow her to offend Qiao Xi, but he did not restrict her from interacting with the Li family. If Old Master Li was also very satisfied with her restoration skills, how would Qiao Xi feel?

At the thought of this, He Wenxian was very proud of herself. She pretended to be surprised and smiled. “Old Master Li is here too? Then let’s have him take a look at this painting!”

As Old Master Li’s status in the cultural relics world was respected, the organizers had given him a total of five invitations. Those who had invitations could even bring companions in, so Li Xing’er’s family was present. Not only that, but Li Xing’er also called Gu Yao over to join in the fun. As soon as the two of them entered, they heard that the Thousand Faces Immortal Doctor was here.

Li Xing’er was extremely excited. “Ah! She’s really here! Gu Yao, you’ve heard of this genius girl, right?! My parents like her very much. Let’s go see what she looks like later!”

Gu Yao nodded without interest.

Li Xing’er asked the staff at the side, “What’s her real name?”

“The eldest daughter of the He family, He Wenxian.”

Li Xing’er was stunned for a moment. She was about to turn around and talk to Gu Yao when she saw his subtle expression. “Her? She’s the Thousand Faces Immortal Doctor?”

Seeing Gu Yao’s disdainful face, Li Xing’er asked curiously. Gu Yao talked angrily the entire way. By the time the two of them found the Li family, Li Xing’er already knew about the grudge between the He family, Gu Zheng, and Qiao Xi.

Li Xing’er’s expression suddenly darkened. “He Wenxian clearly knows that Xi Xi is Gu Shan, yet she still accused her in public of not being qualified to work in Gu Corporation’s design department. Where did she get her guts from?!”
