The hotel manager replied respectfully,” The person who gave the gift only revealed that Miss Wen had once given him warmth when he was at his lowest point. Now that he has the ability, he wants to repay Miss Wen.”
Wen Ruan, who was not paying attention to the gifts, froze when she heard the hotel manager’s words.
She quickly walked to the painting and took a closer look.
The long, butterfly-like eyelashes trembled violently.
This… Was it from Huo Hannian?
Why was he so generous?
“Manager, this painting is too expensive. We can’t accept it…’
Before Wen Ruan could finish, the hotel manager interrupted,” That gentleman said that this painting is no different from scrap paper in his hands. If Director Wen doesn’t accept it, he can only throw it away like trash.”
As soon as the manager finished speaking, cold slaps sounded from all around.
Did the person who gave the gift have so much money that it could be treated as waste paper?
He actually treated such an expensive and rare painting as trash? Someone questioned,” Could this painting be an imitation?”
“Even if it’s an imitation, it’s worth more than seven figures.”
Wen Jinzhang said with a serious expression,” It’s not an imitation. It’s an authentic piece of Old Wu’s work!”
The authentic work was indeed precious and not something that ordinary people could have!
Wen Ruan bit her lip and hesitated for a moment.
“Daddy, take it!”
Wen Jinzhang looked at Wen Ruan with a complicated expression. He was a little worried. This person had just bought a painting worth fifty million. What did he want from his daughter?
Would accepting this painting cause any trouble for Ruan Ruan?
Wen Ruan guessed Wen Jinzhang’s doubts and whispered to him,” Father, don’t feel burdened. If you don’t accept it, he’ll really throw it away. A famous painting has to be left in the hands of someone who understands it. Only then will it be valuable!’”‘
Wen Jinzhang nodded thoughtfully.” I’ll write you a check later. Give him the money. ‘”‘
Wen Ruan replied,” Alright.”
The guests seemed to have forgotten about the Four Treasures of the Study that Huo Jingxiu had given them.
Everyone was admiring Bamboo Forest Garden as if they were looking at a rare treasure, and they praised the person who gave the gift.
There were also people who felt that Wen Ruan had given warmth and help to that person when he was at his lowest. If that person was still young, he might be able to become a legend.
Huo Jingxiu gritted his teeth and his face turned green with anger.
The gift that he had carefully prepared for a long time thought that it would surprise the entire banquet. He did not expect it to only be a flash in the pan and not be mentioned in the blink of an eye!
Huo Jingxiu clenched his fists tightly, his chest filled with rage. Was Huo
Hannian not enough for Wen Ruan? Now there was a mysterious tycoon?!
Huo Jingxiu’s heart was in turmoil. He looked at Wen Ruan who was surrounded by guests and suddenly realized that the distance between them seemed to be getting further and further!
Originally, he was just a bootlicker behind her!
But when did she become so unattainable?
Qin Fang had been paying attention to the movements of the banquet hall. He was secretly pleased to see Huo Jingxiu’s face turn green.
Huo Jingxiu was usually the most handsome, smart, and representative of the top students in school. He had long disliked him, and he had been slapped in the face today!
However…
Brother Nian seemed to have another powerful love rival!
The banquet continued. Wen Ruan took the expensive painting and placed it in the presidential suite.
She didn’t leave the room immediately. Instead, she took out her phone and sent Huo Hannian a video call..
