Chapter 962: Gaining Favor

At tonight's party, Lin Zhiming was out of the limelight.

Whether it's the blind tasting of red wine or the silent crying at the end of the artwork, it leaves an indelible impression.

After today, Lin Zhiming's name will spread throughout the aristocratic circle of the corrupt country, and even the entire European aristocratic circle.

"Zhifang, to be honest, originally my perception of you was somewhat biased, but your performance tonight made me feel eye-opening, you are not the person I imagined, you are very good, and you are worthy of Natalie!"

When the surrounding nobles who also left the scene saw this scene, they were all envious, jealous and hateful.

Auden's eyes were almost burning with flames, tonight he and the prince originally planned to let Lin Zhiming lose a big person, but he didn't expect that in the end, Lin Zhiming was achieved, his mentality had completely collapsed, and he couldn't wait to eat Lin Zhiming alive at this time.

It's just that he knows that this is impossible, Lin Zhiming's skills are there, what qualifications does he have to skin him alive?

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, I also thank you for bringing us such a wonderful party night!" Lin Zhiming said movingly.

"You're welcome. Wesley shook his head, then pulled Lin Zhiming to a corner next to him and asked in a low voice, "Zhiming, there is a question I have always wanted to ask you." ”

You say. Lin Zhiming said.

"What do you see in Mr. Millsap's painting, and why do you end up crying?" asked Wesley.

"Your Royal Highness... In fact, I spent a brief time with Mr. Millsap before he died!" Lin said.

"Oh, really, and you're a seeker, aren't you?" asked Wesley.

Lin Zhiming shook his head and said, "Once, I was helping Mr. Millsap clean the table, but I didn't expect the paint to stain the rag in my hand, so I casually threw the rag and threw it onto a clean piece of drawing paper. ”

"Oh, and then?" Wesley asked.

"Mr. Millsap picked up the piece of paper and told me that modern art is actually a pile of shit, artists create things that they themselves can't understand, and then show them to people who think they know art, and then those things become works of art, and he said, that piece of paper that has been stained with a rag, as long as it is sold in his name, it will definitely be regarded as a work of art, and I didn't believe what Mr. Millsap said at the time, and now I believe it. Lin Zhiming said with emotion.

"What? Could it be that the piece of paper you are talking about stained with a rag is the painting from night?!" Wesley asked in surprise.

"Yes. Lin Zhiming nodded.

Wesley was stunned, he never thought the story would go this way.

"Do you have any evidence?" Wesley asked.

"He asked me to write an initials L of my last name in a highlighter in the corner of the paper, and if you go back and get a UV lamp, you should be able to see the L. Lin Zhiming said.

"Then I'll go back and see!" Wesley said, turning away impatiently.

Lin Zhiming smiled, walked up to Natalie and said, "Let's go, let's go back." ”

"What did you say to His Royal Highness?" asked Natalie.

"Nothing. Lin Zhiming shook his head.

"And what do you see in that painting?" asked Natalie the same thing as Prince Wesley.

"I saw the old people, the past, the mountains and rivers, the universe, the flood, and all things in the world. Lin Zhiming said.

"Really?" asked Natalie in disbelief.

"Fake..."Lin Zhiming smiled.

"And what did you see?" asked Natalie excitedly.

"This is a very long story, let me tell you slowly in the car, get in the car!" Lin Zhiming said.

Natalie nodded, got into the car with Lin Zhiming, and left Wesley's mansion.

On the other side, Wesley returned to his mansion and saw the painting again.

He asked someone to bring a UV lamp, took a look at the edge of the painting, and sure enough, he saw an English letter L in the corner!

"He's telling the truth!" Wesley's eyes widened, goosebumps rising all over his body.

He didn't expect that this painting would be painted by Lin Zhiming, and he unintentionally threw the rag on the drawing paper to create it.

What kind of artwork is this, this is rubbish!

"If he had said all of this just now, wouldn't I have lost my face?!" Wesley suddenly thought of something, and muttered to himself excitedly.

This painting was painted by Lin Zhiming, but it was sold as Millsap's work, the key is that Wesley also thought that he had seen a lot of things from the painting, if Lin Zhiming debunked all this on the spot, it would not only be him, all the people present who praised the painting would be slapped in the face, and when the time came, the nobles of the entire rotten country would become the laughing stock of the world!

It can be said that just now, Lin Zhiming had the opportunity to press the faces of the European nobles to the ground and rub them at any time.

However, Lin Zhiming didn't do it!

He unleashed enough kindness!

Thinking about it this way, Prince Wesley's favor for Lin Zhiming skyrocketed.

He had courted Natalie before and liked her very much, so when Auden offered to fix Natalie's boyfriend together, he agreed without any hesitation.

Unexpectedly, in the end, he reaped Lin Zhiming's kindness.

Just then, Wesley's cell phone rang.

Wesley took out his phone and looked at it, and realized that it was Auden calling.

Wesley picked up the phone.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, tonight is definitely an accident, I have a better plan, and on my uncle's birthday, I will definitely be able to make Lin Zhiming lose a big face, an absolute big face!" Auden said on the other end of the phone.

"Oh, yes, are you sure you're going to make it this time?" Wesley asked.

"It's going to work, I'm going to do it," Auden told Wesley about his plan on the other end of the phone.

"Well, what do you need me to do?" Wesley asked.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, you must come to the scene at that time, you are the most honorable person, you are witnessing all this at the scene, even if my uncle doesn't want to deal with Lin Zhiming, for the sake of your face, he must deal with Lin Zhiming seriously!" Auden said.

"Oh... This can be done, I'll be going to Duke Bauhinia's birthday party then, don't worry!" Wesley said.

"Yes, Your Highness the Prince, I'll get ready now!" said Auden, hanging up.

Wesley took his phone and thought about it seriously.

The other side.

On the way back to York City.

Lin Zhiming told Natalie everything.

"Actually... That is true. Natalie looked at Lin Zhiming in disbelief, she didn't expect that things would be so coincidental, and a piece of cloth that Lin Zhiming threw away would become the last artwork to sell for 800 million US dollars.

"A work of art that exposes all the ugly faces of the aristocracy. Natalie said disdainfully, although she is a nobleman, she is only a nobleman who has become a monk halfway, so she is still very unaccustomed to some phenomena in the aristocratic circle.

"It can't be said that the so-called art investment is now almost monopolized by capital, and art is just a tool for money laundering, do you really think that a piece of paper with a little paint can be sold for 800 million US dollars?" Lin Zhiming asked with a playful face.

"I see," Natalie realized.

The two drove to York City and arrived at York City at about two o'clock in the morning.

After a brief goodnight to each other, the two returned to their respective rooms.

"It was a good day. Lin Zhiming patted Ye Shan's shoulder and said.

"That's actually a very simple thing, you specially explained, I naturally can't do anything wrong!" Ye Shan said.

She took the lead in applauding when Lin Zhiming cried, which was actually a task given to him by Lin Zhiming.

"It's easy to say, but the timing and the speed of the applause are very testing skills, and your acting skills are also very good, which is worthy of praise, you can go back." Lin Zhiming said.

"Okay. Good night Mr. Lin!" Ye Shan said goodnight to Lin Zhiming happily, and then returned to her room.

Nothing was said all night.

Next...

There were only two days left until the birthday of Duke Bauhinia Ryan Portman.

The atmosphere of the whole estate has also become much more tense, and people are busy decorating the manor, and at the same time, they have to buy the ingredients needed for the day's banquet from other places.

For the people in the manor, this year's birthday party is different from previous years, not only because this year is the 40th anniversary of the Duke of Bauhinia inheriting the title, but also because it may be the last birthday of the Duke of Bauhinia.

Everyone knows that Duke Bauhinia is seriously ill and his health is getting worse day by day, and it is very likely that at this birthday party, Duke Bauhinia will pass on his title to his only daughter, Natalie Portman.

Therefore, everyone takes this banquet extremely seriously.

Lin Zhiming was called out by the housekeeper Peyton early in the morning.

"The host is going to the market in a nearby town to pick up some spices for a birthday party, and he wants you to accompany him. Peyton said.

"Spices?, Mr. Duke still needs to buy spices by himself?" Lin Zhiming asked in surprise.

"The owner just wants to go out and walk more, his body is getting worse day by day. Peyton said sadly.

"I understand!" Lin Zhiming nodded, then changed into clean clothes, left Ye Shan in the manor, and left the manor alone with Ryan Portman, heading to a nearby town market.

It can be seen that Ryan Portman is not in a good mental state, and he barely talks after getting into the car, and sleeps there.

The car drove for more than ten minutes and came to the outside of the market.

Lin Zhiming got out of the car first, and then got out of the car with Ryan Portman in his arms.

As soon as he got out of the car, Ryan Portman's spirit seemed to be better all of a sudden, and he was supported by Lin Zhiming while walking slowly to the market with a cane.
