Chapter 65: Lost Paintings
As soon as Zhao Qi left, I immediately threw the flowers he sent into the street, and seeing it only made me more upset and nauseous. After Zhao Qi made such a fuss, half of my good mood was driven away by him.
Readjusted, according to the original plan, I came to wait for He Yiyang outside the cultural park. A few minutes later, He Yiyang appeared at the gate of the Cultural Park and was surprised to see me.
I waved at him, then trotted all the way to my car and asked me, "Why are you here, is there something wrong with me?"
"I can't come to you if it's okay. Let's talk about it when we get in the car. "I deliberately pointed to the passenger seat, because every time he sat in my car, he would take the initiative to sit in the back seat.
He Yiyang paused for a moment and then came to the passenger seat according to my meaning, opened the car door and saw the bag I put on the passenger seat, glanced at me and smiled at me in a signature manner.
"The bags are beautiful, I especially like them. I smiled at him.
He Yiyang's smile deepened, nodded to me, and then picked up his bag and sat down.
"What are you looking for me?" He Yiyang asked again.
This fool can't see it, and I just want to tell him that I like the bag he gave.
"I can't come to you if it's okay?"
"Yes, of course. He Yiyang hurriedly raised his hand to explain.
"Hmph...... "Forget it or don't tease him, "Okay, I'm here to thank you for sending the bag." To show my appreciation, I decided to start today and pick you up if I have time, and it's half the way anyway. β
He Yiyang looked at me again with an expression of disbelief.
"It's too much trouble for you, I can take the car by myself, and it's not far. "He Yiyang showed me sign language.
I was the most annoying to push back and forth polite words, so I ignored them directly, and said to He Yiyang: "Okay, it's so happily decided, I'll go together before eight o'clock here, and if you can't get there, you can take the car by yourself." β
He Yiyang wanted to say something, but I stopped him directly, "Okay, if you continue to talk nonsense, you will be late." β
After sending He Yiyang back to the newspaper office, he began to think about how to get rid of Zhao Qi at night. Luckily, I found an opportunity - in the afternoon, I cheekily asked Zhiye to grab an outing interview, and used the excuse that I had waited for someone and didn't return to the club. I had to take a taxi back at night, and I cursed Zhao Qi more than a hundred times in my heart.
At night, when I finally got home safely and could have a good rest, the doorbell rang suddenly. The property lady downstairs told me that a gentleman surnamed Zhao was looking for me at the door, and said that he was my boyfriend, and he had already said that he would go out to eat together, and he had to break in to pick me up.
I really doubt how I offended Zhao Qi in my previous life, and I am like a debt collector in this life. I was already so angry that I vomited blood, and I told the property very angrily: "What boyfriend, where did I get so many boyfriends? My boyfriend is only He Yiyang? After speaking, I pressed the intercom phone hard, and I was angry and frustrated the phone several times with my fingers.
As soon as I sent the property, the phone rang again, and the first reaction was naturally Zhao Qi again. But I didn't want to take a second look at the phone, but fortunately it wasn't Zhao Qi, a bastard.
The call was Yingying's, I was not happy in my heart, I picked up the phone and said to Yingying: "I'm annoying, if you have something, say it quickly, hang up if it's okay." β
Ying Ying's side actually changed her usual spitting and spitting: "That, Jingjing, is it convenient for you to speak now? β
It's weird, call me and ask me if I'm there with He Yiyang?
"Yingying, what's wrong? I'm not at He Yiyang's house, what's the matter? Why are you asking me that?"
"Well, it's a bit of a thing. β
"Something, you say. β
"I said, don't worry. β
It's really weird, why is Yingying talking to me so carefully, is it possible to do something sorry for me?
"You're so strange today, you can't be doing something wrong, I can tell you, you dare to do something sorry for me....."
"It's He Yiyang, he seems to have secretly taken a XX painting in the outline. β
I was stunned for a moment, how could it be.
"Yingying, are you saying that He Yiyang stole the paintings in the outline? Are you kidding?"
"I don't want to believe it, but Haotian said that He Yiyang was the last to leave that day, and I called up the surveillance video to show that he did have a black bag in his hand when he left that night, which should be the painting. β
When Ying Ying said this, my heart felt like it was burned by a soldering iron. He Yiyang said that his money was obtained from selling paintings, so ..... But I still don't want to believe it.
"Yingying, when did you lose the painting?"
"It should be the night before yesterday, I saw it in Lao Qi's office the day before yesterday, and I won't have it when I go in today. Listening to what Haotian said, I adjusted the surveillance video the day before yesterday, and the result was ....."
The day before yesterday, didn't I just force me to believe it, yesterday He Yiyang just returned me 10,000 yuan, and gave me a bag worth nearly 10,000 yuan.
"So, how much is that painting worth?"
"The market estimate is around 25,000. β
Twenty-five thousand, how can there be such a coincidence in the world, He Yiyang really went to steal paintings recklessly in order to buy me a bag and pay me back, which makes me face Yingying and how to feel at ease.
"I know, Yingying, don't worry, I'll give you an explanation. "I told Yingying weakly.
"Jingjing, what are you confessing? You are not the one who stole the painting. β
It was not me who stole the paintings, but I was the one who stole the paintings.
"Yingying, you don't understand, anyway, I'll give you an explanation. β
"Jingjing, I'm just guessing now, there is no solid evidence, don't tell He Yiyang in advance, I want to wait for Lao Qi to come back before making a decision. I'll also confirm again, don't wronged others. β
I know that Ying Ying is giving me face and doesn't want me to embarrass me, but He Yiyang only entered Ying Ying Gallery through me, and it was because of me that I went to take risks to steal and sell paintings, so I can't sit idly by and ignore it.
Moreover, although Yingying said that she was still investigating and confirming again, I already had a number in my heart, 25,000, it would never be so coincidental, besides, how could He Yiyang's paintings be sold for 25,000.
I only blamed me for being too naΓ―ve and believing him. If I had asked more questions and paid more attention at that time, maybe I could have found out in time, remedied it in time, and asked him to take the painting back and put it back in time, so that Yingying would not be embarrassed. But now it seems that thinking about this is useless, and I just hope that there is still time to remedy it.
"Yingying, I know, it's nothing, I'll hang up first. β
"Okay, I'm going to take another look at the surveillance video as well. β
Hang up the phone. I'm so confused, I still don't want to believe that He Yiyang will steal paintings, just to pay me back the money, sell me a broken bag? Is he stupid or stupid, doesn't he want a future?
The more I thought about it, the more angry I became, the more I thought about it, and finally I couldn't control it, picked up the bag hanging at the door and poured all the things inside on the ground, and I didn't bother to change my pajamas and slippers and went straight to He Yiyang's house.
At the door, I knocked on the door with a sullen breath, and soon He Yiyang opened the door for me. I didn't even look at him, I pushed him in and threw the bag on the young hair.
"The bag will be returned to you, and the 10,000 yuan, I will take it out for you tomorrow. β
He Yiyang came over with a hazy face, looked at me for some reason, and signed in sign language: "What's wrong with you? Didn't you say it all yesterday?"
"Let me ask you again, where did you get that $25,000?" I struggled to suppress the fire.
"Didn't I tell you? He Yiyang had a sincere face.
But the fire in my heart is rising higher and higher, isn't he going to tell me the truth?
"Selling paintings, He Yiyang, what kind of paintings do you paint? Just you, an unknown little sesame painter, what kind of treasure can you paint worth 25,000?"
The expression on He Yiyang's face became solemn, and he asked me, "What do you mean by this?"
"What do you mean, don't you know? He Yiyang, let me tell you, no matter what method you use, give me that painting right now and ask for it back, otherwise no one will be able to help you. My tone grew heavier and heavier.
He Yiyang still looked pitiful and innocent, and asked me again: "What are you talking about?
Why didn't I admit it to death, and I pretended to be stupid and stunned, so angry that I couldn't breathe, clenched my fists tightly, gritted my teeth and did the final "probation" with emotion and reason.
"He Yiyang, I have always thought that although you are poor, you are not short-minded, you never take advantage of others, and you will never think of moving some crooked thoughts. He Yiyang, tell me, did I misread you?"
It can be seen that He Yiyang has begun to be anxious at this time, looking around for something for a long time but not finding it, he picked up the mobile phone on the table and began to type with his head down.
After typing, He Yiyang raised his head and looked at me as if he was waiting for something, his eyes stayed on me for a moment, and then he quickly lowered his eyes, and reached out and handed the phone to me.
When I saw the WeChat he sent me, I realized that I was waiting for my phone to ring just now, but I didn't bring my phone when I went out in a hurry just now.
The content to me and WeChat was: "I'm sorry, I really don't understand what you're talking about. What kind of painting? Who do you want me to ask? Can you please explain this clearly?"
Still pretending to be stupid with me, I couldn't hold back the anger in my heart anymore, threw my phone on the sofa, pointed at him angrily and scolded: "He Yiyang, are you still pretending to be stupid with me? I have never looked down on you when you are poor, but now I am really disappointed in you." If you want to make money, you can go to a part-time job, you can go to learn to pick up bottles and sell cartons. If you don't make enough money, you sell your kidneys and blood, but you want to steal it. People treat you very well, and they personally invite you to live and feed you, in exchange for your kind of reward? Why are you embarrassed? Why don't you just go and be a thief, rob a bank, steal jewelry, that way you have more money? You've only been here for a few days, and the gallery won't be able to accommodate you, right? If you really think that the temple is small, then please leave early, so as not to embarrass me here. β
After saying so much in one breath, I was angry and tired, I gasped for breath and looked at He Yiyang out of breath. He Yiyang's expression changed from innocent and anxious, to forbearance, sadness, to closing his eyes and sneering, until finally all expressions faded from his face, and he sat directly on the sofa with a blank gaze.
"Why, you're not going to say yes, are you?"
I don't understand, I've talked about it, why is he still so calm, is it really just to die to the end?
