What if My Brother is Too Good?

Chapter 51

By now, Monier had also noticed Huo Wu’s existence. He saw a few words to Huo Yusen in French, he appeared to be asking him what happened. Then, Huo Yusen seemed to have introduced her to him, because after Huo Yusen finished speaking, Monier looked at her.

Monier was a French man that was over sixty years old. His hair had turned gray and he seemed to be putting on weight. He had a solemn expression on his face, making him seem hard to approach.

If Huo Wu had not known Monier from reading the novel, then her first impression of him would be that he gave off an arrogant aura and seemed to be someone that was hard to get along with. In fact, this was everyone’s first impression of Monier.

However, Huo Wu knew that although Monier didn’t seem like someone that was easily approachable, she can easily get along with him if she found out about his background, preferences, and habits.

At this time, Monier should be looking for a suitable business partner. Huo Wu was not clear about the specific business, but she knew that the profit generated by this partnership will not be small. Huo Yusen and Mo Ze both wished to become Monier’s business partner, and their competition for that spot had reached its climax.

Monier’s original partner for the business was Huo Yusen. He felt that Huo Yusen would be an excellent business partner because he had an outstanding ability and was also very well versed in the field of business. He predicted that their cooperation would produce a considerable amount of profit. But in the end, their partnership fell through and Monier ended up working with Mo Ze.

This was because Mo Ze had tampered with today’s auction.

Towards the end of the auction, they will bring out the last item for auction. The last item for auction was a genuine work by the famous artist, Da Fangqi.

Monier had long been a fan of Da Fangqi’s work. After knowing that this item will be auctioned by the Hanhai Auction House, he deliberately pushed his trip forward and came to China in advance.

In the original plot, Huo Yusen will win the bid for the item and give it to Monier as a sincere gift for their cooperation. After receiving this precious gift, Monier was naturally very happy. He decided to cooperate with Huo Yusen on the spot.

While the two parties were in the middle of signing their business contract, Monier suddenly received an anonymous text message. The anonymous text message said that the authenticity of the item he received from Huo Yusen was fake and that Huo Yusen had just put on a show to gain his business partnership.

Although the other party did not say exactly what Huo Yusen did, Monier, as a business, had naturally come to his own conclusion.

He immediately suspended the signing of the business contract and invited a number of experts from his contacts to verify the authenticity of the item Huo Yusen had given him.

The experts have studied the item for several days, and they had many intense discussions on whether the item was authentic. Finally, they had come to the conclusion that the item was actually a high-quality imitation of Da Fangqi’s work. It was not a genuine product.

This meant that the person who counterfeited the item was very skilled. Several of the experts were almost fooled by how authentic it looked. In the end, it was an expert who was very well versed in Da Fangqi’s works that discovered the subtle difference in the item from authentic work, finally proving that this item was fake.

Monier was a very earnest and serious person. He disliked it when people lied to him.

Because he received a fake item, Monier’s mood was greatly affected.

It didn’t matter whether Huo Yusen had put on an act or not, the important matter was that he received a fake item and the fake item was given to him by Huo Yusen.
