Jiang Youyi chuckled. “You can choose not to believe me, but you have to believe someone’s words.” As Jiang Youyi spoke, she looked at Mrs. Li. “Mrs. Li, if 1 remember correctly, Elder Zhou is also attending the banquet today. Why don’t you ask him to come and take a look?”
“Elder Zhou? Is he the best in the antique world, Zhou Jie, Elder Zhou?”
“I haven’t seen Elder Zhou at the banquet for so long! Is he here?”
“If Eider Zhou comes, his words are trustworthy.”
“Jiang Youyi actually knows Elder Zhou. Looks like she knows the antique world very well.”
***
While everyone was surprised that Elder Zhou was here, Mrs. Li was also surprised. Elder Zhou was indeed here, but he was a special guest and had yet to appear. This time, she invited Elder Zhou over mainly for the charity auction later. If it was a charity auction, there would definitely be people auctioning antiques. In order not to receive fakes, she invited Elder Zhou over.
However, Mrs. Li did not tell Jiang Youyi that there would be a charity auction later. In other words, although there was a charity auction, Mrs. Li did not inform Jiang Youyi. Everyone knew, but Jiang Youyi did not. Has someone else told her? But even if someone else had told her, it was impossible for them to tell her that Elder Zhou was here because no one knew.
Elder Zhou did not participate in the red carpet segment, nor did he appear at the banquet. The only opportunity he appeared was when he took the elevator to the lounge. But could Jiang Youyi meet him in such a short period of time? Even if she did, would she be able to recognize that person as Elder Zhou?
Mrs. Li was very puzzled, but no one could explain to her now, and it was not the time to explain.
If Liu Xiaoyan really gave her a fake, it would be difficult to explain after accepting it. At that time, the Liu family would not admit that it was a fake. Because of this, Mrs. Li was still quite cautious, so she said, “Go to the lounge and invite Elder Zhou over.”
Hearing Mrs. Li’s words, everyone was in an uproar.
Was Elder Zhou really here? When did he come?
At the same time, Liu Xiaoyan’s heart raced. She was a little nervous. Jiang Youyi actually dared to hire a professional? Did that mean that she was holding a fake? Could she really have been deceived?
It was a small matter to be deceived, but if she was exposed in front of so many people, what face would she have?
Liu Xiaoyan was so nervous that she clenched her fists. It was all Jiang Youyi’s fault. If she hadn’t interrupted, she wouldn’t have been in so much trouble.
Not long after, Elder Zhou was invited out. His assistant supported him. He was wearing a black Tang suit and his hair was snow-white.
“It’s indeed Elder Zhou.”
“We don’t even know. How did Jiang Youyi know? How is she so resourceful?”
“Looks like there’s going to be a good show.”

“I’m sorry, Elder Zhou. 1 troubled you to come out in advance.”
“It’s fine.” Elder Zhou was very amiable.
“Miss Liu gave us a blue and white porcelain, but there was a controversy. The children don’t know anything about antiques, so please appraise it.” Mrs. Li was very polite.
“Alright, let me take a look,” Elder Zhou said as he took the blue and white porcelain. Then, he started to look at it from about a meter away. Just as Jiang Youyi had said, he put on a white glove and rubbed it in his hand.
When Elder Zhou was observing, no one made a sound. The banquet hall was very quiet. Even a pin drop could be heard. After looking at it for a few minutes, Elder Zhou finally said, “It’s indeed fake.”
When Liu Xiaoyan heard this, she staggered and almost fell. Fortunately, Xie Zhenzhen held her. However, Xie Zhenzhen was not a fool. She helped her up and let go of her. She kept a distance from her. “Don’t explain later. Otherwise, it will make things worse. Just say that you don’t know what’s going on either.”
Liu Xiaoyan was about to cry. “That’s impossible. 1 spent nearly ten million yuan to buy this. It shouldn’t be fake!”
“Young lady, you’ve really been deceived. This isn’t real, and the imitation isn’t very real.” Elder Zhou was very sure.
“I asked a professional to take a look and he said it was real.” Liu Xiaoyan emphasized.
“Did I see wrongly?” Elder Zhou asked, but his expression had already turned ugly. In the antique world, who dared to question him?
“Elder Zhou is a leading figure in the antique world. He definitely won’t be wrong. Sorry to trouble you, Elder Zhou. Go back and rest! 1’11 have to trouble you to come out later.” Seeing that Elder Zhou was unhappy, Mrs. Li hurriedly made up.
Elder Zhou was supported by his assistant and left without looking back. He did not even say why this fake was fake. His status was extraordinary and he was the leader of the antique world. As long as he said that it was fake, it was fake. Besides, this fake was so obvious..
