At three o'clock in the afternoon, the dinner ended.

The guests left one after another, Jiang Lao also got up to say goodbye, and Ye Guangbai personally got up to see him off.

Jiang Nan looked at Qin Jiu, who was lying on the railing and watching the scenery, got up and followed him to hold the old man's arm.

Chi Tianye knew Qin Jiu's temperament, she never cared about these human accidents, he deliberately sat on the chair and didn't move, just waiting for an opportunity to talk to her alone.

Finding an excuse to get rid of the assistant, Chi Tianye got up and walked to the window, standing beside Qin Jiu, and his tone was a little careful.

"Uncle Shi, why don't you tell me in advance, and I can cooperate with you."

Qin Jiu was looking at a piece of information on his phone without raising his head.

"You can't act."

Ike Amano: ......

Turning off the phone screen, Qin Jiu pulled his face up from the phone.

"How did the last copy of the "Bamboo and Stone Map" end up on the market?"

A few months ago, when Chi Tianye held an exhibition in the imperial capital of Yanjing, Qin Jiu took back the "Bamboo and Stone Picture" from abroad at a high price and handed it over to Chi Tianye for safekeeping—the previous "Blank Collection Calligraphy and Painting Exhibition" was also arranged by Chi Tianye.

At that time, in order to teach Chi Tianye, a self-created coloring technique, Qin Jiu improvised a copy.

When she was done, she crumpled it up and threw it in the trash.

This detail, Chi Amano remembers very clearly.

At that time, he watched her throw the painting into the trash, and wanted to pick it up but didn't dare.

Qin Jiu's temper Chi Amano knows, she has always been strict with her works, and she will definitely not show people what she paints casually.

"Is there such a thing?" Hearing that this painting had entered the market, Chi Tianye's face suddenly changed, "Uncle Shi, don't worry, I will definitely find out." ”

A few months of things, or picked up from the trash, how to check?

According to Qin Jiu's speculation, someone must have found the calligraphy and painting in the trash can, thinking that it was made by Chi Tianye, and later it became the so-called "Zheng Banqiao's authentic handiwork" after changing hands several times.

ran into the Su family, who was stupid and had a lot of money, and sold it directly to a high price of 10 million.

"The painting is ruined, it doesn't matter." Qin Jiu's tone was light, "Next time you dispose of the scrapped manuscript, be more careful." ”

Chi Tianye bowed slightly, looking like a good baby: "Uncle Shi taught me a lesson!" ”

Noticing that his assistant was back, Qin Jiu raised his chin: "You should go." ”

Chi Tianye didn't dare to say anything more, and took his assistant to leave.

Ye Guangbai stood at the door of the restaurant, and after sending Old Man Jiang back, he saw Chi Tianye coming out, and he was busy welcoming him over, and he was indispensable to thank him again.

Before getting out of the car, Chi Tianye also specially instructed his assistant to leave a business card for Ye Guangbai.

"Ye Lao is polite, what is the use of me in the future, just open your mouth."

Putting the business card into his body, Ye Guangbai returned to the front desk of the hotel: "VIP hall on the top floor, I want to settle the bill!" ”

The granddaughter has such a smart mind, Ye Guangbai is already very pleased, where can he let a child spend money?

"The bill for the VIP room has been settled, and the full payment was made when the meal was ordered."

The cashier pulled out the bill, printed a copy, and held it in Ye Guangbai's hands with both hands.

Seeing the final checkout figures, Ye Guangbai's brows furrowed.

Hundreds of thousands?

With so much money, where did this kid come from?

Qin Jiu carried his bag and walked up the stairs.

"Grandpa, shall we go?"

After receiving the bill, Ye Guangbai went out with her and sat in the car, with countless doubts in his heart, looking at the driver who was driving, and stopped talking.

Back at the Ye family's villa, Ye Guangbai took Qin Jiu into the study and carefully closed the door.

"Xiao Jiu, how did you and Chi Tianye meet?"
