After chatting with Matthew for a few words, a middle-aged man next to him suddenly interjected and asked curiously:

"Steven, you would be willing to give the Vatican the statue of Our Lady of Raphael and Michelangelo's Christ of Mourning so that His Holiness the Pope would come to Boston to officiate at your and Betty's wedding

Although I have only seen those two paintings on TV and have not seen them up close, I have heard from several art critics that they are two priceless and extremely valuable works of art

According to the art critics, the value of those two paintings should be close to a billion dollars, and possibly far more than a billion dollars, and it would be too big for you to give them away for nothing."

The one who spoke was one of Matthew's cousins, Betty's uncle, and the two families were very close and moved around a lot

"Wow, that's an exaggeration"

As soon as this man's words fell, an exclamation immediately sounded in the living room.

Everyone looked at Ye Tian's side, and everyone's eyes were full of curiosity, looking forward to his answer.

Ye Tian turned his head to look at the one who spoke, glanced at the others in the living room again, and then nodded with a smile and said:

"That's right, Chuck, Raphael's Madonna and Michelangelo's Christ of Mourning, are indeed two of the most priceless works of art, and their combined value is likely to exceed a billion dollars

As for whether I would like to give them to the Vatican in exchange for His Holiness the Pope coming to Boston and officiating at the wedding ceremony for me and Betty, of course I will, because I love Betty and I want to give her the perfect wedding possible."

Hearing this, Matthew, who was sitting next to him, stretched out his hand and immediately patted Ye Tian's arm gently, and said appreciatively:

"Well, Steven, Evelyn and I are very appreciative of your decision, and I am confident that your wedding with Betty will be perfect and you will be blessed with the best wishes

At the same time, we would like to thank you for your generosity and generosity, because it is because of your generosity that we have the opportunity to meet His Holiness and receive his blessings, which is very important."

"You're welcome, Matthew, as long as it's for Betty and can make her happy, I'm happy to do anything, and it's nothing to give away two top works of art, it's not worth mentioning"

Ye Tian took the opportunity to express his determination to the old man's pole, and his posture was very high.

"Steven, you are so generous, if this is for someone else, who can be willing to give up two top works of art worth a billion dollars, if it were me, I would be reluctant to kill me"

Chuck said with emotion, his eyes full of envy and his eyes full of appreciation.

As soon as his words fell, another middle-aged man next to him immediately joked:

"If it were you Chuck, you would really dare to think that even if you put the paintings of Raphael and Michelangelo in front of you, do you know this guy and have that artistic quality?"

"Hahaha"

There was a burst of laughter in the living room, and everyone laughed.

Chuck's old face flushed, and he glared at the guy who exposed his old background and embarrassed him a few times, but he was helpless

All of you here are friends and family, so you can't turn your face because of a joke or two

When the laughter fell, Ye Tian continued:

"After the wedding, if you have time, I recommend going to the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York to see Raphael's Madonna and Michelangelo's Christ of Mourning.

You've all seen these two paintings on TV, but believe that they can never compare to the feeling of facing these two top works of art, and there is a world of difference between them

I'm pretty sure that when you stand in front of Raphael's Madonna, stand in front of Michelangelo's mourning Christ, and quietly admire them, your soul will be completely shaken.

This is a rare opportunity not to be missed, and it is a matter of two things to say, once these two outstanding paintings by Raphael and Michelangelo are brought back to the Vatican

His Holiness will not leave the United States immediately after the wedding, but will also visit various parts of the United States for a few days, during which the Metropolitan Museum of Art will not stop exhibiting at the Metropolitan Museum of Art."

"Steven, we don't want to miss this opportunity, and we also want to visit the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York to see those two top artworks

However, I'm afraid we won't have this opportunity, the Metropolitan Museum of Art has made an appointment to visit, and the number of reservations has already been filled, and it is still our turn there."

Chuck continued, with a hint of regret in his tone.

The rest of the people in the living room all nodded, including Matthew, who obviously couldn't make an appointment, and they could only miss this opportunity.

Ye Tian looked at everyone's expressions, then smiled and said:

"It doesn't matter if you don't have an appointment, as long as you want to visit the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York and enjoy these two top artworks, I'll take care of the rest

I know the director of the Metropolitan Museum of Art very well, and this exhibition is also on loan, so I can arrange time for everyone, so you don't have to queue up outside, and you don't need to make an appointment, you can still enter the museum."

"That's great, after the wedding, our family will go to New York immediately, and we can't miss this opportunity."

Chuck said excitedly, and the rest of the group nodded excitedly.

As soon as the words fell, Logan, who was standing at the edge of the living room, suddenly pointed to the TV screen and said loudly:

"Look, the Pope's plane is coming"

With his words, everyone in the living room stopped talking and looked at the TV screen in front of them, except for Ye Tian, the excited eyes of everyone else shone brightly

Sure enough, a large passenger plane with sleek lines flew from a distance, and in the blink of an eye, it was flying over Washington Dulles International Airport, and the altitude was getting lower and lower, and it fell straight to the far end of the straight runway.

At the end of the runway, not far from the departure hall, on an apron.

The US president and his entourage, as well as many American religious leaders and people from all walks of life, who had come to greet the pope, had already lined up and looked at the large passenger plane that was slowly landing

Many media reporters who were allowed to enter the tarmac for interviews and filming raised their long guns and short guns one after another, and shot wildly at the large passenger plane

It was clear from the TV screen that everyone on the tarmac was very excited and their eyes were shining.

Some of the more devout Christians were still chanting words in their mouths, praying in low voices, and drawing crosses on their chests

Of course, there were also a number of Secret Service agents on high alert on the tarmac, each of whom was scattered around the President of the United States and his entourage, vigilantly watching the situation.

In addition to the Secret Service agents in suits and leather shoes, there were many Washington police officers and a large number of airport security personnel at the scene, and the security of the entire tarmac was very tight, which can be called watertight

On the outskirts of the crowd, a little further away, there are a lot of cars parked.

Among them is the car of the President of the United States, an extended version of the Cadillac luxury car customized for the President of the United States, Army One

This is a super bulletproof vehicle capable of rocket attacks, and it can also withstand the attacks of biological and chemical weapons, and its protection is extremely good

In addition, there are many full-size bulletproof SUVs, commercial vehicles, and a large number of police cars with flashing police lights, a total of dozens of them, and the scene is quite spectacular

Looking at the airport hall at this time, it has already been completely boiling.

Almost everyone in the airport hall looked at the silver-gray large passenger plane from a distance through the glass curtain wall, and many people even kept waving their hands and shouting excitedly

Although it was clear to each of them that it was impossible for the Pope to see himself and to hear his voice, it seemed that only in this way could they express the excitement in their hearts

Many media reporters in the waiting hall raised their cameras and video cameras one after another, and kept shooting at the large passenger plane, recording this important moment.

At the same time, the excited voice of the live host of CBS TV station also kept coming into everyone's ears, broadcasting the latest situation.

"Ladies and gentlemen, it's a quarter past two o'clock, and the airliner that is heading for Washington Dulles International Airport and is about to land is His Holiness the Pope's plane."

Before the on-site host's words fell, the rear wheels of the large airliner had landed on the runway, bringing up a puff of green smoke.

At this moment, Matthew suddenly said quickly:

"Logan, go upstairs and call your mom and Betty, and the others down, Your Holiness the Pope has arrived in Washington, D.C., so don't miss this important moment."

"Okay, I'll call them."

Logan nodded in response, and immediately rushed up the stairs in three steps and two steps to call Betty and them.

Soon, there was a burst of footsteps on the stairs, which was very dense

In addition to the sound of footsteps, there was a burst of chatter, each voice excited, and it was a woman's voice

Hearing these voices, everyone in the living room turned their heads and looked at the stairs, including Ye Tian.

The first to go downstairs and appear in front of everyone were Evelyn, the mistress of the house, and Chuck's wife, followed by two other middle-aged women

Next came Betty's two sisters, about twenty years old, very lively.

The next moment, Betty, dressed in a white wedding dress and wearing top-quality jewelry, carefully walked down the stairs with the corner of her skirt in one hand.

At this time, Betty's whole person seemed to be radiating light and dazzling, like an angel who suddenly fell from the sky and appeared in front of everyone's eyes, extremely beautiful

The moment he saw Betty, Ye Tian was directly stunned, and the other people in the living room were all stunned

"Wow Betty is so beautiful"
