335 Gu Man Unveils the Painting
He nodded in agreement. “Since Second Master Xiang has already spoken, if I don’t give him face, I won’t know what’s good for me.”
He tilted his head and looked at the painting on the tray. He touched it lovingly two or three times. His heart ached as much as it wanted, but for the sake of the Zhou Family’s advancement, what was a small painting?
The benefits of agreeing to Gu Man were far more than the benefits of a painting.
“I hope Miss Gu can cherish this painting.”
His cherished appearance was especially funny in Gu Man’s eyes because she knew very well that she had drawn that painting. If Old Master Zhou found out, he would probably be ashamed at the thought of his current act.
The corners of her lips curled up slightly. She walked to the tray in two to three steps and picked up the painting inside impolitely. She threw the silk cloth outside aside and unrolled the painting.
Her actions were swift and decisive, without any pity.
The painting instantly fell into everyone’s eyes. Even if they looked at it again, they could not help but sigh at the artist’s exquisite painting skills.
“Even an outsider like me can tell that this painting is exquisite. How can it be fake? If a replica can draw to this extent, they’re probably a master.”
“The moment I saw this painting, I was brought in. How could it be fake?”
Everyone felt that it was a pity. They did not believe that Gu Man can unveil the painting. From the beginning to the end, they thought that she was being unreasonable and wanted to destroy the painting so that there would be no evidence.
Apart from sighing, she was even more indignant about capital. If not for Xiang Yin, how could Gu Man have been so reckless?
After watching a few farces, everyone already knew that Xiang Yin’s ident.i.ty was not simple. No matter how much regret they had, they did not dare to show it on their faces. They could only be indignant in their hearts and secretly criticize the detestable capitalism. Even good works could be treated as toys to play with.
If w.a.n.g Zhi were here, he would probably be disappointed to see his painting being treated like this.
They shook their heads. They clearly did not know anything, but they still pretended to be regretful, as if they could accuse Gu Man of her misdeeds.
However, they did not know that they were the real clowns.
Gu Man did not care about their gazes at all. She looked up in the Manager’s direction. “You have the tools to unveil the painting, right?”
The Manager nodded. Since Elder Zhou and Xiang Yin had already discussed it, this matter had nothing to do with him. The Manager, who had gotten rid of the trouble, was much happier. He agreed happily to Gu Man’s request.
Their auction did have tools to uncover paintings.
Gu Man returned to the room closest to them with the painting in her hand and unfolded it on the table.
The room was big enough. Even if everyone came in, it would not seem crowded.
Elder Zhou looked at this dark group of people and was a little impatient. He frowned slightly and his gaze landed on Gu Man.
“Miss Gu, do you need us to give you a quiet room for you?”
“You don’t have to.”
The others might require no disturbances when they unveiled paintings, but Gu Man did not. She was extremely confident in her skills, so no one else could disturb her.
However, she did not know that her rejection would seem even more unprofessional to outsiders.
Elder Zhou shook his head and revealed a regretful expression. He looked at the painting on the table unwillingly, wanting to fight for himself again.
“Second Master Xiang, although you want to make the beauty happy, as you can see, Miss Gu really doesn’t know much about unveiling paintings.”
He vaguely wanted to remind Xiang Yin, but he had already tried his best to be tactful, afraid that he would make Xiang Yin unhappy.
“It’s not up to you to judge how much she knows.”
Xiang Yin’s rude words made Elder Zhou’s expression turn ugly, but he did not dare to say anything. He only snorted and stood at the side.
Since Xiang Yin wanted to embarra.s.s Gu Man, don’t blame him for not reminding her.
At that time, Gu Man would not be able to withstand everyone’s pressure and cry to seek justice. It would have nothing to do with him. After all, he had reminded them before, but they did not listen.
Gu Man was probably the only one who wanted to show off in front of Xiang Yin. She probably did not even know what the unveiling painting was. Did she really think that it was just a simple unveiling of the painting?
