Jiangcheng is divided into three major districts by the Yangtze River and Hanshui, namely Jiangnan, Jiangbei and Hanxi.

Jiangnan is the educational and cultural center of Jiangcheng. More than a dozen colleges and universities of all kinds are dotted here, and Jiangcheng University is one of them.

Jiangbei is the economic center and prosperous area of Jiangcheng.

In Jiangbei, a wide road close to the Yangtze River runs from east to west, and on the other side stands large and small office buildings, supermarkets and shopping malls, and even many old-fashioned bungalows.

The best companies in Jiangcheng are gathered here. It's one of the city's busiest streets, and every inch of land is at a premium.

On the west side of the road, at the mouth of the Hanshui River, there is a green garden covering an area of about 80 acres, which is particularly precious in the center of this high-rise city.

Right here, a skyscraper stands tall in the middle.

This is the first building in Jiangcheng and the third tallest building in the country - Emgrand Building.

The value of this place is indescribable.

According to legend, there is an unwritten rule in the Emgrand Building that if the company's assets are less than one billion, the doors of the Emgrand Building will not be left open.

At 666 meters tall and with 230 floors, there are only 10 companies in total, all of which are leaders in their respective industries.

The headquarters of Jiangcheng Lijing Real Estate Group is located in the Emgrand Building, with a total of 10 floors from the 60th to the 69th floor.

On this morning, the heat wave was rolling outside, and the house was as cool as promised.

In a room on the 69th floor of the Emgrand Building, Liu Hongyue, wearing a beige sleeveless dress, stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window with a cup of hot coffee, looking at the Yangtze River flowing in the distance.

The slightly furrowed eyebrows indicate that she is not in a good mood.

When she was ten years old, her mother left her, and in the next thirteen years, although her father regarded her as the pearl of his palm, the family was finally covered with an indelible shadow.

The shrewd and capable eldest brother died unfortunately due to an accident a few years ago, the second brother was cowardly and incompetent, and the father was old and sick, and this time it was not easy to pick up half his life.

The widow's sister-in-law is extremely spicy, and the second sister-in-law competes with the sister-in-law for the family property with the support of her mother's family, which is in an uproar and is known all over the city.

In addition, the government has recently introduced a series of purchase restriction measures, resulting in a decline in housing prices and a tightening of the monetary system.

Therefore, in the eyes of outsiders, the powerful and wealthy Lijing Group is actually already overwhelmed by internal and external troubles.

Looking at the endless flowing river, Liu Hongyue was full of worries.

I only hate myself for being a girl, and I have the heart to share the burden for my father, but I always feel powerless.

And what worries her the most is her father's body. The doctor repeatedly told him that he must not make his father emotional, otherwise, if he gets sick again, the consequences will be unimaginable.

My father has been obsessed with painting in recent years, and Qi Baishi's "Shrimp and Crab" is his favorite painting, which he had to observe almost every day before his illness. If he knew that "Shrimp and Crab Picture" was torn to pieces by his unfilial children, he would definitely not be able to stand it.

"Gotta fix that picture!"

Thinking of that painting, Liu Hongyue naturally remembered Luo Ping.

This person is also very strange, he offered a high price of 100,000 yuan, but he refused to agree.

You know, this price has caught up with the price of asking the master of Beijing Rong Bao Zhai to make a move. If it weren't for the fact that I heard that his jishu was quite good, and the repaired paintings didn't even show any traces of repair, how could I personally come to the door to beg him.

"Is it because he knows that he is in a hurry to make up for the painting, and he wants to take the opportunity to raise the price and eat a big family?"

Liu Hongyue snorted coldly, feeling that it must be so. Now that the world is declining, people's hearts are no longer ancient, and it is common to ask for corpses, and it is absolutely rare to send charcoal in the snow.

"Knock knock".

There was a knock on the door, and then, as the door opened and footsteps rang out, a short-haired girl of about 20 years old walked up behind her.

Liu Hongyue didn't look back, she already knew who was coming.

"Xiaoice, have you found out?"

"According to my investigation in the past few days, Luo Ping is an orphan who grew up in a private orphanage...... He has good academic performance, but he has frequent contact with bad people in society and often fights...... He met Professor Chen Qingyu in November last year, and in early July this year, after Professor Chen went abroad, he lived in Professor Chen's house. As for whether he has learned from Chen Lao to repair famous paintings, he has not found out for the time being. ”

"I didn't think he was an orphan......"

After Xiaoice left, Liu Hongyue stood in front of the window for a while, then walked to the desk and pressed the pager on the table, "Sister Sun, you arrange, I will go out in ten minutes." ”

After tidying up her makeup in the bathroom, Liu Hongyue picked up the kun bag and walked out of the office.

"I heard that Liu Dong is about to be discharged from the hospital, do you know?"

"What about coming out, it is said that I have a half-paralyzed sequelae, and the company must not continue to mess up in the future."

Diagonally across from a transparent office, two girls are whispering.

"Isn't there still Miss Red Moon?"

"I think she can beat those two shrews? Behold, this house is divided. ”

Liu Hongyue suddenly appeared at the door of the office and tapped lightly on the glass door frame.

"Focus when you go to work." The voice was cold.

The two girls were so frightened that their faces changed color, and they hurriedly went to work at their desks.

Liu Hongyue turned and left.

……

After returning from Phoenix Ridge, Liu Qi became much closer to Luo Ping, not only increasing his authority to 10,000 yuan, but also often teaching him how to distinguish ancient porcelain.

Some of his old friends occasionally joked that he had accepted another apprentice, and Liu Qi did not deny it, smiling all day long, and his mood has been very good these days.

Luo Ping was depressed.

Since he knew that the broken skins might be a treasure map, and each one was worth millions of dollars, Fairy Xu had his eyes on his two broken skins, so that Luo Ping had to hide them closely.

But even so, as soon as he returned home, Xu Fairy would entangle himself and touch him, making him extremely angry, but he couldn't fight back.

Therefore, Luo Ping has been very angry these days.

Early in the morning, before Pincixuan opened, Luo Ping cleaned the store with his hands and feet, and Liu Qi sat on the side with a pot of Biluochun and looked at him with a smile.

"Xiao Luo, I have a small party with a few friends in the afternoon, if you are interested, let's go and have a look."

"Okay!" Luo Ping happily agreed.

He had long heard Liu Qi say that their antique players often had small parties. It's called a party, but it's actually a few acquaintances getting together to hold a small treasure appraisal and auction, and he has long wanted to go and see it.

At ten o'clock, Luo Ping received a strange phone call, it was Liu Hongyue, she hoped to meet him, the address was in a high-end café near the antique street.

Luo Ping didn't want to go, but Liu Qi, who was sitting next to him, was very gossipy and asked him if his girlfriend asked him out, and urged him to hurry over, don't let his girlfriend wait for a long time.

Luo Ping couldn't cry or laugh, knowing that this kind of thing must be getting darker and darker, so he simply took a leave of absence from Liu Qi and walked towards the café.

After arriving at the café, under the guidance of the waiter, Luo Ping found Liu Hongyue in a booth by the window.

"Miss Liu is really powerful, she knows my mobile phone number so quickly."

Luo Ping was not polite to her, sat down with a big smile, and ordered a cup of coffee and a few snacks.

"Mr. Luo, please forgive me for taking the liberty of finding someone to learn something about you in the past few days."

The waiter quickly brought the coffee that Luo Ping ordered, and after she left, Liu Hongyue continued, "So, not only do I know your phone number, but I also know that you seem to have been in some trouble lately. ”

"Hehe, Lijing Group is really good. Force, it seems that you know all about my little things. Say, what do you mean by looking for me today? ”

"I don't mean anything else, I just hope that Mr. Luo can help repair the painting, and as compensation, in addition to providing you with a check for 100,000 yuan, I will also have someone help you solve that trouble." Liu Hongyue didn't move the cup of coffee in front of her, leaned back on the sofa slightly, her delicate chin was raised, and she looked condescending.

Luo Ping raised the corners of his eyebrows, "It seems that you think you have decided to eat me." ”

"I just heard that Zhang Wei's men have come out of the detention center, and it is very likely that they are now guarding outside Jiangda." Liu Hongyue still didn't smile, and her tone was cold.

Luo Ping was stunned, and quickly took out the phone and dialed Xu Ting. A few minutes later, Fairy Xu sent a text message, saying that Huang Mao was really guarding outside the school gate.
