Chapter 163: Long Time No See

The car stopped at the entrance of the gallery.

Ji Cong said in the front seat, "Mr. Zhou, that painting was bought from the boss here, I checked the boss's background, it's nothing special, it is estimated that it is a name, and there is someone else behind the scenes." ”

Zhou Yanhuai got out of the car and walked into the gallery.

This kind of place is not a crowded place in the first place, the interior is very quiet, and there are almost no guests.

Zhou Yanhuai walked slowly in the corridor with paintings, the paintings inside were all kind, the level and value were ordinary, and the real connoisseurs would not be displayed outside.

The clerk came over and asked, "Does this gentleman want to see the paintings?" ”

Ji Cong said in the back, "We want to see your boss." ”

As he spoke, he handed over a business card.

The clerk looked at it, nodded and walked away.

After a while, the clerk came over and asked, "Please come in with me." ”

As he spoke, he led the two into the reception room inside.

The interior is elegantly decorated, with incense burning on the tea table, and the woman sitting at the table leisurely pouring tea into the cup.

The contours of her side face were extremely familiar, until the young woman slowly raised her head, and Ji Cong exclaimed, "Xu...... Miss Xu? ”

Looking at Zhou Yanhuai, who was indifferent, Xu Yanning smiled slowly, "It's been a long time, Yanhuai." ”

Zhou Yan's eyebrows condensed slightly, "Tell me what's going on with the painting." ”

"I haven't seen you for so long, and as soon as you open your mouth, you just ask about painting, and you're still so cold." Xu Yaning put down the teacup and smiled at him, "If you sit down, drink tea with me, and ask me how I have been doing for more than half a year, my disappointment will be much less." ”

Ji Cong looked at Xu Yanning, her appearance had not changed much, but her face was no longer innocent, and her eyes were full of straightforward hatred when she looked at Zhou Yanhuai.

Ji Cong knew what was going on, and reassured, "Miss Xu, more than half a year ago, Mr. Zhou sent you abroad to continue studying, you were seriously injured in a car accident, Mr. Zhou couldn't pull away and sent me over, but when I arrived at the hospital, you were gone, we have been looking for you, but there is no trace of activity in your identity, you are living in another identity, Miss Xu?" ”httρs://

Xu Yaning smiled coldly, rubbing his right hand, "If I hadn't left the hospital, what would you have done to me?" Continue to hypnosis me and turn me into a delirious lunatic, or is it more direct and find another chance to kill me? Yanhuai, did the car accident really happen by chance? I'm not dead, you're disappointed, aren't you? ”

She looked at Zhou Yanhuai, she broke all his intentions, there was no special emotion on his face, and there was no strong fluctuation when she suddenly appeared, as if she was just an inconsequential person.

Zhou Yanhuai was not in the mood to talk nonsense with her, so he only asked, "Where did the painting that was sold here not long ago come from?" ”

Xu Yanning refused to answer, but said, "Yanhuai, you used to care about me very much, but now you don't want to pretend?" ”

"Answer me!" He snorted.

Xu Yanning looked at his cold appearance and smiled lightly, "Okay, let me answer you, I was just a poor student at the time, and there were only a batch of paintings sent out by me, and my understanding was limited." However, there are always people who are closer to Jiang Ao who have more insider knowledge than me. ”

"Who's the boss behind you?"

Xu Yanning smiled, "Yanhuai, you funded me to study, held me to open an art exhibition, and I told you everything I knew in the past, you always said that you were just trading with me and didn't want to owe me, so has we already settled between us?" Now I don't have the obligation to cooperate with you. ”

Ji Cong mediated with her, "Miss Xu, you must have misunderstood Mr. Zhou, the car accident was just an accident, and Mr. Zhou's original intention was to send you abroad for further study." If you think about it, Mr. Zhou's influence on you is not only financial support, but also that you can study abroad, be able to hold art exhibitions on the best platform, and become a well-known cutting-edge painter, these opportunities have really changed your fate. ”

"yes, changed my fate." Xu Yanning got up and walked to Zhou Yanhuai's side, she raised her hand and wanted to touch his arm.

Zhou Yan avoided it without thinking about it.

Xu Yanning smiled without warmth, "I'm still the same sentence, you think it's just a deal with me, then I don't owe you, I don't need to answer your questions again." If you say that it is not a deal with me, maybe, for the sake of feelings, I can consider telling you something you want to know. ”

Zhou Yanhuai glanced at her and turned to leave the gallery.

Back in the car, the two drove away, Ji Cong thought about it and said, "Mr. Zhou, Xu Yanning herself doesn't have that connection and ability, and she will disappear under our noses with a new identity, and someone must help her." ”

Zhou Yanhuai guessed, "She had a relationship with Chen Xiuxiao before, and her new identity should have been arranged for her by Chen Xiuxiao early on." ”

That time he drank unclean wine at Chen Xiuxiao's banquet and stayed at Zhou's house at night, Xu Yanning took the opportunity to enter his room, if he hadn't noticed it in time, that trap would have made him sick for a lifetime.

There is no such coincidence in the world, and those two people must be exchanging news.

"Then the behind-the-scenes boss of this gallery, will it be Chen Xiuxiao?" Ji Cong felt that the current situation was very complicated and dangerous, "Mr. Zhou, I will send someone to keep an eye on Xu Yining, and maybe I will find traces of Chen Xiuxiao." ”
