18 Don't think too highly of yourself

Edward told Lin Chen in French that he wanted to discuss food with him, although Li Manman and they couldn't understand it, but judging from Edward's respectful and sincere attitude, they knew that they were completely wrong.

Could it be that this big liar not only knows foreign languages, but is also really proficient in French dining culture?

Looking at Lin Chen, who had an extraordinary temperament at this time, Li Manman was in a trance for a while, didn't his younger brother find out? In fact, this man is really capable?

"Mr. Edward, thank you for your recognition, and let's talk again when we have the chance. But I also want to remind you that as a French restaurant in China, don't be bent on profit, you should take care of some of your employees and see if they are taking money from others and being used by others. ”

Lin Chen said in Chinese, so far, he did not deliberately look at Li Manman and Li Shanhe, but presumably the two should be able to understand what he meant.

"Okay, definitely!" After Edward finished speaking, he went down, and left a contact information with Lin Chen.

"You eat first, I'll go to the bathroom."

Li Manman only felt that his pretty face was hot, as if he had been greatly ridiculed, and he hurriedly excused himself to go to the bathroom to relieve himself.

When he arrived at the bathroom, Li Manman slapped his delicate and pretty face with cold water, stomped his feet resentfully, and muttered to himself: "I'm angry, I'm angry, this man is too much, he can't order foreign languages, he can serve some food, where did he get the capital to be lukewarm to me?" To put it bluntly, isn't it just a door-to-door son-in-law, a little security guard? ”

Li Manman was really angry, Lin Chen's conversation with Edward just now was obviously aimed at her, and he had already sensed her motives.

If you are another man, whether it is a rich man, a traffic niche in the circle, or even some powerful people in the political world, which one doesn't praise her stars? Where did she get this kind of anger?

"Sister, I've encountered a ruthless stubble, this guy is so capable of pretending, I can't bear it." Li Shanhe also took the opportunity to run over and said.

Li Manman glared at his younger brother and said, "Shame on the dead, if this thing spreads, where will my face go?" A big star being teased by a little security guard? ”

Li Shanhe said: "I didn't expect it, there are two brushes on this thing, if I hadn't deliberately investigated him, if I were just a little girl who has not been deeply involved in the world, I guess I would have been fascinated by him." I have to say, this kid is a bit interesting and temperamental! ”

While speaking, Li Shanhe nodded approvingly.

Li Man glanced at his younger brother speechlessly, and said, "Look at you, a little security guard who knows a little French culture, and you are so impressed?" ”

But Li Manman thought about it carefully, Lin Chen did have an amazing temperament, and his ability to control the whole audience was a little too handsome!

It smells so good!

"Okay, sister, don't worry, when I make a big move, I will definitely get the field back."

After saying that, the two siblings walked back to the table together.

……

At the dining table, Shen Qingzhu was looking at Lin Chen with an incredulous expression and asked, "I'm sorry, why didn't I know that you would have so much before?" ”

Lin Chen chuckled lightly and said, "You haven't asked me before, besides, is this difficult, it's just that you looked down on me too much before and didn't take me seriously." ”

Shen Qingzhu nodded, feeling that what Lin Chen said was very reasonable, if he really worked as a waiter in a French restaurant, it would not be too difficult to do this.

"And what do you mean by that? Who was taken advantage of, do you mean that Li Manman gave money to the waiter and deliberately made things difficult for you? Want to see you make a fool of yourself? Shen Qingzhu, who reacted, suddenly asked.

Lin Chen nodded, and Shen Qingzhu hurriedly said, "That's bad, it's all because I said big things for the sake of face before." I guess they've checked your details, so they'll find a reason to leave early. Otherwise, if they try to test you in any other way, they will be dead. ”

As soon as Shen Qingzhu finished speaking, Li Manman's sister and brother had already arrived, recovering their previous good temperament.

"It's a long time, there is still something going on at home, Lin Qing and I are going back first, and we will get together again next time." Shen Qingzhu said immediately.

Li Manman smiled and said with a seemingly good-natured smile: "What's the hurry, then let's speed up a little." Lin Qing, didn't he just say that he knew calligraphy and painting very well, and just now he said so many artists' names in one breath, some of which we have never heard of. My brother happened to pick up a painting recently, Lin Qing, can you help identify it? ”

Soon, Li Shanhe took out a painting from his bag, which he had spent eight million dollars to buy, and it was said to be the work of Master Ruao.

"Brother Lin, you help me see this painting "The Old King", it is said to be the work of Master Rousseau, but I paid a high price of eight million, you can show me the authenticity." Li Shanhe handed the painting to Lin Chen and said with a smile.

This painting seems to Li Shanhe to be real, but he deliberately said that the painter was from Rouault to Rousseau.

In this way, no matter what the result of Lin Chen's identification is, he can be invincible.

In Li Shanhe's opinion, it is impossible for Lin Chen to understand this painting.

And as soon as she heard that this painting was worth eight million, Shen Qingzhu's whole heart rose to her throat, if it happened to soup or something, she couldn't afford to pay for it.

In addition, she knew that Lin Chen didn't really know how to paint, so she hurriedly said, "Let's study it again when we have time, we really have something to do today." Husband, let's go. ”

Looking at Shen Qingzhu, who was in a hurry to leave, Li Manman smiled with determination.

Why don't you pretend? Finally poked your soft underbelly?

Without thinking about it, Lin Chen gently took Shen Qingzhu's hand away and said, "Don't be in a hurry in this minute or two, I'll just take a look at it, I can tell at a glance whether it's normal or true." ”

You can see it at a glance!

Li Manman was stunned for a moment, and soon laughed in his heart.

Served!

Li Manman really admired Lin Chen's change and was not surprised, just talking about this adaptability and acting ability, it was simply an actor-level, and she even wanted to invest in making a movie and let Lin Chen star in it.

"Brother Lin, don't laugh, eight million calligraphy and paintings, even those appraisal masters have to study them with a magnifying glass for a long time. Don't be nervous, I know it's precious to you, just take a look and give your opinion. Li Shanhe controlled his urge to laugh and said.

Under the nervous gaze of everyone, Lin Chen casually opened the calligraphy and painting.

At a glance, Lin Chen could see that this "Old King" was the work of Rouault, and it was not the so-called Rousseau of Li Shanhe at all.

And this painting is actually not the real thing, he has seen a Western master, who is good at painting imitation paintings, and many times confuses the real with the fake.

This master is called Francis, and he doesn't imitate paintings to make money, but likes the feeling of playing with the world, so as to prove his strength, so he will do a little trick in his works.

"Lin Qing, can you see anything? If you can't see it, forget it, let's go, it's not our field. ”

Shen Qingzhu was worried that there would be a moth when he waited, and he didn't want to pretend anymore, so he said directly.

Li Manman also said: "I really can't see it, forget it, after all, these collections are not easily accessible to ordinary people, you should have just looked at the pictures before, so that you can see the real thing is really difficult for you." ”

At this time, Lin Chen suddenly spoke: "First of all, I want to correct Mr. Li Shanhe's mistake. This oil painting is obviously Master Rouault's "The Old King", I don't know how it became Rousseau's work in your mouth? It stands to reason that it is impossible to make such a low-level mistake by spending so much money to buy this work! ”

Li Shanhe's face turned green, and he thought that the trap he had carefully designed was easily broken like this?

Li Manman's pretty face also became solemn, and he said in his heart: "Is it really out of sight?" This man is not a parallel trade, but a real artist? ”

And Lin Chen continued: "I don't know Mr. Li Shanhe, do you really not understand it at all? Or is it deliberately wrong? Want to embarrass me? ”

Lin Chen's words came out, and the three people present were shocked.

At this time, Lin Chen's whole body exuded a trace of unquestionable majesty, and he looked like a king who looked down on them.

Li Manman regretted it, and her intuition told her that she shouldn't be curious to provoke this man.

But soon Li Manman reacted, what are you afraid of, at best, she is the son-in-law of the Shen family, as the daughter of the Su family in Jiangnan, she is still afraid of him?

"Lin Qing, I don't understand what you mean. I don't know calligraphy or painting, I just want you to help my brother see it. Whether you can tell whether it's true or not, what do you want to express when you question us so casually? People of our status would design to embarrass you? Don't think too highly of yourself. ”

Li Manman was really angry, she had always been held, but it was the first time that she was so ignored by a man.

Shen Qingzhu on the side also panicked, and hurriedly pulled Lin Chen and said, "Lin Qing, let's go, return this painting to others." ”

Eight million!

If something goes wrong, they're finished.

And at this moment, Lin Chen suddenly smiled slightly, and tore this oil painting very elegantly!
