Chapter 187: Antique Dinner (8)
In the silent presidential suite, several people who were supposed to be the protagonists of tonight's banquet did not appear in the banquet hall downstairs, but sat on the sofa with a calm face, the ink in their eyes sank a few points, and the atmosphere of death was like the eve of a storm.
Until the door of the room was opened again, the messy and panicked pace revealed the unrest in the heart of the visitor, after seeing the situation in the room clearly, Ling Haotian's expression was stunned, and after reacting, his mood was even worse, and he couldn't help but be rude, ", you all came up too?"
As he spoke, he ripped off the tie he had dressed up in detail tonight and unbuttoned his shirt, and now he was furious and needed to calm down urgently, "Can anyone tell me what the fuck is going on?"
The pair of childhood sweethearts of the Xia family and the Xi family suddenly called him out of the banquet hall, and the Xia family kid directly told him not to show the antiques tonight, and without explaining anything to him, he directly said that he was deceived??
Ling Haotian's first reaction was, how could a child of his Ling family be deceived?!
However, Ling Haotian hesitated for a moment with Xia Ziran's calm and calm eyes, he had heard his family talk about the Xia family boy before, and he had heard the old man mention it with envy.
One of the candidates for the future heir of the Xia family, he has been smart and intelligent since he was a child, he began to intern in the family business before graduating from high school, and he audited high-level decision-making meetings.
Because it was Xia Ziran, Ling Haotian was willing to believe what he said, along the way, after learning all these things from Xi Yue's mouth, the anger of being deceived instantly filled his chest, from childhood to adulthood, even if he had caused trouble outside and done some bastard things, it was the first time that he was fooled so miserably!
"Why are the antiques that Ouyang Zhen sold us fake?"
"I'm a good collector in Hong Kong?"
Hearing Ling Haotian's words, Zhou Wenbin frowned with some dissatisfaction, now that the matter has not been investigated clearly, Ling Haotian pressed this matter on Ouyang Zhen, it was too arbitrary, right?
Thinking of this, Zhou Wenbin opened his mouth to explain, "It may not have been done by Mr. Ouyang Zhen, it is very likely that someone else is impersonating his name." ”
Ling Haotian glanced at him, a man in his 40s with an elegant temperament, dressed politely and politely, with an ancient charm on his body, like the literati and scholars he usually meets, not like a character in high society.
Therefore, the young man's tone was casual and somewhat presumptuous, "Who are you?"
"Jubaolou, Zhou Wenbin. ”
Ling Haotian's expression was silent, it turned out to be him, speaking of which, this person was warned by his parents that he could not be offended, but it did not mean that he Ling Haotian had to curry favor with him, he could only say that if he could have a good relationship, he would do a good job, and if he couldn't do a good job, he couldn't offend.
After a long time, the young man held back, "I've been looking up for a long time, Boss Zhou." In his opinion, this is the best attitude and tone he has shown to strangers in more than 20 years.
"Hmm. The response ended the conversation between the two.
The waiting time for the arrival of the security guards was not long, only about ten minutes, and the door was knocked, but during this time, the four people only felt like they were sitting on pins and needles, and the frequent movements of the clock did not hide their anxious and urgent mood.
"Knock Knock"
After Qin Wanwan's bodyguard confirmed the visitor, he respectfully invited him in, and three tall figures walked in from the door, and the security guard led by him happened to be an acquaintance, professional habits, Yu Chao first secretly observed the personnel in this room.
However, when his eyes fell on a white figure in the corner, his expression froze for a moment, and his deep voice subconsciously raised, "Senior sister?!" A slightly stunned look, he seemed to be surprised that Lou Qingyu appeared at this high-end antique banquet tonight.
And the white suit on the junior sister is not like the simple and low-key she usually wears, the white clothes are better than the snow, and the cold and delicate girl is undoubtedly the most amazing collision, standing there like an aspen, so good-looking that people can't take their eyes off.
"Senior Brother Yu, aren't you from the next area?"
"I was transferred a while ago. Yu Chao explained in a whisper, and then, looking at Lou Qingyu's expression was a little complicated, "Senior sister, it's you, how do you feel that where there is a case, there is you?"
It's not that I suspect anything, it's just that there is a detective cartoon in which the character setting of the protagonist is too famous and too deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
"Coincidence. The girl glanced at Yu Chao with a faint expression, "You have to believe in the core values of socialism." ”
"Ahem, this must be believed!" Yu Chao coughed lightly, his face was straight, a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, his eyes swept over the other people in the room, and his voice was a little solemn, "Then please tell the four of you in detail about the process before and after buying antique objects." ”
Su Jianqiao glanced at the other three and whispered, "Then I'll talk about it first." ”
"In the first two months, because some things in the business were tripped by opponents, and then I found out that only people from the five wealthy families in the magic capital could help solve this matter, so I asked everywhere about methods and channels. ”
"At that time, by chance, I met a businessman in Hong Kong, and I learned from him that Ouyang Zhen wanted to sell antiques, I don't know about antiques, and I can't identify the authenticity, so I didn't plan to touch it at first, but then I heard the persuasion of a friend, and I decided to buy it. ”
Yu Chao grabbed the details of Su Jianqiao's words, and then asked, "What did that friend say?"
"He said that Ouyang Zhen's treasures can't be fake, and he can also find someone to help me identify them. Su Jianqiao's voice was neither fast nor slow, and his eyes were half-closed as if he was recalling the words of the time, "At the same time, he also said that this is an opportunity to get acquainted with a wealthy family, because Ouyang Zhen's treasure collection is of very high value, even if it is a person from a wealthy family, he is very interested in this, and he persuaded me to borrow flowers to offer Buddha." ”
Ling Haotian's eyes narrowed slightly, "Borrow flowers to offer Buddha?"
"Because, in another week, it will be the birthday of the old man of the Su family, if I can beat the fame of this treasure in the magic capital, and then give it to the old man of the Su family, as long as the old man of the Su family is happy, maybe my dilemma can be easily solved. ”
The more Yu Chaoyue heard this, the more he felt that Su Jianqiao's friend was a little strange, "What's the name of that friend of yours, who is the person who helped you identify it in the first place?"
"Chen Zhijian. ”
"Xiangyu Appraisal Center. ”
As soon as the words fell, the expressions of the three people on the sofa also changed, and Yu Chaotian also noticed this situation, his eyes flashed slightly, "You..."
"I also went to the appraisal center. Chen Jiahe glanced at Yu Chao in a heavy tone, and then lowered his eyes, as if reflecting on his mistake this time.
"My friend told me that the person who recommended her to the appraisal center was surnamed Chen. Qin Wanwan clenched her teeth, and the cheekbones on her cheeks trembled slightly, as if she was suppressing the anger in her heart.
"Damn, I bought it back in this appraisal center!" Ling Hao subconsciously burst into a foul mouth, which bastard told him where to buy antiques in the first place? ?
Hearing the answers of the other three people in the room, Yu Chao was a little happy, come on, it seems that the clue is on Chen Zhijian and this Xiangyu Appraisal Center!
Yu Chao glanced sideways and motioned to the two assistants on his side to investigate, and he continued to stay in the room to investigate, but not long after he went out, two security guards pressed a middle-aged man and walked in from outside the door.
"Who is this?" Yu Chaojian raised his eyebrows slightly, and glanced at the well-dressed middle-aged man, his eyes flashed with essence, like a cunning fox in the mall, "Is it someone who was deceived by Chen Zhijian again?"
"Team Yu, no. The two assistants also looked a little weird, "This is Chen Zhijian." "It's just that as soon as I walked out of the lobby, I found this suspicious man sneaking out of the banquet hall.
They looked at it and felt that something was wrong, and when they checked the documents, they found that the person they wanted to investigate appeared in front of them like a pie falling from the sky, and it was easy to find the person they wanted.
After learning about their arrest process, Yu Chao suddenly felt that this Chen Zhijian was really bold, he was really not afraid of being found out that the antiques were fake, and then he would be held accountable to him, and he dared to appear at tonight's dinner openly?
A trace of curiosity rose in Yu Chao's heart, what did this middle-aged man rely on in his heart?
