After Qin Wan called Wang Ming, she learned that Lin Cheng did not find him immediately, and she was relieved and very sorry at the same time. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Wang Ming didn't know what was going on, which was a little strange. Qin Wan didn't say anything about Lin Cheng's quarrel with her, but only casually made an excuse to comfort Wang Ming that there was nothing wrong.
After hanging up the phone, Qin Wan knew that things were still going to take a turn for the better, Lin Cheng was not so anxious, thinking about calling Lin Cheng again, if she talked to him well, maybe Lin Cheng would change his attitude and agree. But Qin Wan called all night, but Lin Cheng didn't answer and didn't go home. She sat lonely in front of the floor-to-ceiling window in the room, guarding the huge bedroom, and the loneliness and coldness in her heart came out again.
"Mom, hasn't Dad answered the phone yet? I also transferred to the special assistant's side, it seems that Dad won't answer our phone tonight......" Lin Mansi walked in from outside the room and sat down next to Qin Wan, bringing some warmth to her already somewhat cold body.
Qin Wan turned her head to look at Lin Mansi as if she had come to life. The cold hand caressed Lin Mansi's face, and smiled slightly, revealing a sense of discouragement, "Sisi, in the future, you will definitely find someone who will hurt you and devote yourself wholeheartedly...... At least it won't end up getting married or alone. ”
The moonlight sprinkled on half of Qin Wan's side face through the floor-to-ceiling window, she wore slightly curly long hair, wore a silk white nightdress, and took off her dignified makeup and clothing, and the whole person looked extremely weak, looking haggard and heartbroken.
Lin Mansi's heart shrank fiercely, and this scene was deeply rooted in her mind, reminding her of her mother's appearance like a puppet in the late pregnancy in her previous life, when her mother's eyes were also like stagnant water, and the same eyes and the same look were suddenly superimposed, and Lin Mansi suddenly became afraid.
She shook her hand and gently pulled her mother, carefully, for fear that her mother would disappear in front of her eyes again.
"Mom, no, you still have me, the baby in the womb, and your uncle's family, even if your father is not around, you won't be alone." She felt sorry for her mother, but she didn't know what to do. Only then did she realize that the knot between her parents had accumulated for more than ten years, and it could not be easily changed overnight.
After she mentioned this, Qin Wan seemed to remember that she was still pregnant with a baby in her belly, and stretched out her left hand to caress her belly, which was not too conspicuous, her expression softened, and she finally had a hint of popularity, and said softly: "Baby, mother will definitely protect you." ”
Lin Mansi was not at ease this night, she pestered Qin Wan, stayed in the master bedroom and slept with Qin Wan, all night she dreamed of her mother's eyes in her previous life, and only moved when she saw her, she was immersed in a nightmare and couldn't extricate herself, and when she woke up in the morning, her eyes were sour and astringent, and she knew that she had shed tears all night last night.
And her mother was already a light sleeper, and she was woken up by her low sobbing voice a few times, but she couldn't wake her up, so when Lin Mansi got up, Qin Wan fell into a deep sleep exhausted.
Lin Mansi didn't expect this, and felt a little guilty. After getting up early in the morning and exercising, ask the housekeeper to take out the painting she bought last time, and she has to prepare the two million first. Regardless of whether her father will finally relent, it is always good for her to be prepared first.
The housekeeper's actions were very fast, and while Lin Mansi was sitting at the dining table drinking milk and eating breakfast, the old housekeeper had already asked the servants to move the two paintings and put them in front of Lin Mansi so that she could enjoy them.
Lin Mansi asked people to take a picture of the two paintings with a polaroid, put them in their bags, and prepared to go out. She had already told Xu's mother to call her after her mother woke up, and asked Xu's mother to take care of her mother and make sure she ate on time. Xu's mother agreed repeatedly, and she went out with a small bag.
She thought that the appreciation space of these two paintings has not yet been reflected, and unless she is a person who knows the goods, it is impossible to buy them for two million. After thinking about it, there is only one person in my mind who has this kind of vision, and that is Jin Guilai.
In his previous life, as a master of connoisseurship, Jin Guilai had always had a unique vision, and if he were him, he would definitely be able to see the value of these two paintings in the future. Maybe she'll be able to find a buyer with his help.
Jin Guilai lives in the faculty dormitory provided by Shangyu. In order to reflect the humanization, Shangyu not only has a dormitory specially set up for faculty and staff in the school district, but also bought several commercial houses in a mid-to-high-end community in the suburbs and provided them for faculty and staff to live in, so that they can enjoy family life in the urban area during the holidays.
Lin Mansi knew where the mid-to-high-end community was. Because the community was also developed by the Lin Group, it was transferred to the school cheaply by virtue of Lin Cheng's relationship with the school director, and every time the school held a party or charity banquet in the first few years, the school would mention it in front of Lin Cheng to express his gratitude in person, and Lin Mansi listened to it a few times and remembered it thoroughly.
She had just called Jin Guilai, and he reported his address, and Lin Mansi went straight over.
When he arrived at the door of Jin Guilai's house, he knocked on the door. It didn't take long for Jin Guilai to come out and open the door. He still wears gold-wire glasses, but he doesn't comb his big back, his hair naturally hangs down, and he only wears loose casual clothes, which suddenly adds some literary flavor to his whole person.
"You're here? Come on in. Jin Gui looked at her and smiled, leaning sideways to let her in. The suites of more than 100 square meters are warmly furnished and have a sense of life, neat and organized. She remembered that Jin Guilai's information said that he had a wife and children, and it seemed that the family lived in this commercial house and lived very happily.
"What did you do with me today?" Let Lin Mansi sit down and pour her a cup of tea, Jin Guilai asked directly with a smile.
Lin Mansi didn't hide it, took out the two photos and handed them to Jin Guilai, only asking him to help estimate the value of the two paintings.
"Well, both of these paintings were painted by recent artists, both of whom are new stars and have a lot of room to grow. I estimate that the sum of the two paintings should rise to about three million in the future......" Jin Guilai took the photo and groaned, he had seen these two paintings in art exhibitions, and he admired them very much in his heart, but he didn't expect to be bought by Lin Mansi, it seems that this kid also has some vision.
"Teacher, do you think these two paintings have this value too?" Lin Mansi said happily, "To tell you the truth, I need money now, but I only have these two paintings in my hand, I wonder if the teacher can be a middleman to help me find a buyer?" ......" full of hope.
Jin Guilai touched his chin and muttered for a while, "Speaking of which, I do know someone here who likes to collect paintings, especially this one, Madame Xi once told me that she likes it very much......" said as he picked up the photo of the painting that Lin Mansi had hoped to obtain and showed it to her, and continued, "Maybe she will be interested." If you want to sell, I can introduce you to it. ”
When Lin Mansi heard this, he was stunned, Mrs. Xi ...... She didn't expect that it was true that Mrs. Xi showed her love for this painting at the art exhibition, but later gave her love. But if you go to find Mrs. Xi, you may run into Xi Zeya again......
