Shu Yu looked out of the window. Although she couldn’t see what the other party was doing or what he looked like. However, she could still see a figure walking back and forth through the gaps of the shutters.
It seemed that the other party had not left. She let out a sigh of relief.
Daniu went to the door and poked a hole in the corner of the door, staring at the door of the private room.
The three of them quietly stared at the private room opposite them. The buyer was calm and did not come out.
From Meng Yunzhengs words, Shu Yu knew that the auction would last at least another two hours.
Just as she was thinking, Daniu’s voice suddenly sounded in his ear. “Yu, several assistants from the black market have entered that private room.”
Shu Yu immediately went over to take a look. Indeed, she saw them enter the private room. Not long after, they came out again.
Her heart skipped a beat. “Keep watching. If anyone comes out, let me know immediately.”
“Alright.”
Daniu’s eyes were glued to the screen, afraid that he would miss any movement.
But even if the buyer got the painting, he had no intention of coming out.
Time passed bit by bit. Shu Yu was watching closely, but the other party was becoming more and more calm.
When the next antique item appeared, the buyer in that box even bid twice.
Was this to confuse the public? Or did they not understand the intention of the painting?
Shu Yu stared at the swaying figure across the window. Daniu’s voice sounded in his ear again. “Yu, someone is walking towards us.”
Shu Yu came back to his senses and walked to the door to look outside. Then, she was delighted and said in a low voice, “Open the door.”
As soon as the door opened, Meng Yunzheng, who was wearing a curtained hat, also came in.
Shu Yu closed the door and turned to ask him, “Meng…” She suddenly paused and looked at Daniu and Yuan Shanchuan. She immediately changed the way she addressed them. “Mr. Shan, are you drawn?”
Mr. Shan?
Meng Yunzheng almost couldn’t react, and then he burst out laughing. How could she call Mr. Shanju Mr. Shan?
He took off the curtain hat and placed it aside, then unfolded the scroll.
Shu Yu was a little surprised. She didn’t know what method Meng Yunzheng had used. This painting was much older than the one she had seen before. It didn’t look new.
Daniu and Yuan Shanchuan were also puzzled.
The next moment, Yuan Shanchuan’s eyes widened. “You brought the painting back?”
After saying that, he felt that something was wrong. He frowned and said, “It seems to be different.’
“Of course it’s different. This isn’t the painting.” Shu Yu said in a low voice, “This is a new painting. It can pass off as real. The problem now is that we haven’t seen the original painting. Fourth Uncle, you’ve held that painting for many days, so you should know where the damage and creases are, right?”
Yuan Shanchuan immediately nodded. “Yes, I know. I take that painting out every day to look at it.”
“We don’t have much time. Let’s hurry.” Meng Yunzheng looked at Yuan Shanchuan and asked him to recall.
Yuan Shanchuan was inexplicably nervous under his gaze. He swallowed his saliva and immediately told him about the few eye-catching places.
The painting was well preserved. After all, it was a very expensive painting. Moreover, it contained such important evidence. Even if it was damaged, it was caused by Yuan Shanchuan’s hiding.
Although it was a painting from a year ago, it was not very old.
Meng Yunzheng followed Yuan Shanchuan’s description and quickly finished the scroll.
Fortunately, when he drew that painting, the paper and scrolls he used were all common materials. It was no different from the one in front of him..
