Xu Yi looked over when he heard the voice. It was an unfamiliar woman.

He did not recognize her.

He did not speak, but just looked at her quietly. It was best if she had something important to say.

Otherwise, with Xu Yi’s current mood, she would make this woman pay the price as long as he was delayed.

Fang Qing was shocked at the price of the painting.

At the same time, she felt dejected. If it weren’t for the situation back then, she would never have sold this painting!

“Mr. Xu, sorry to bother you. I’m Lu Si’s assistant. My name is Li Yan. Lu Si would like to invite you to discuss something. I wonder if you have the time now.”

Lu Si was looking for him?

Xu Yi narrowed his eyes and carefully sized up the woman in front of him.

Could it be that there were other paintings that she wanted to sell?

However, he was too lazy to think about it.

It was because the other party was Lu Si.

“Where are we going?”

Li Yan had prepared many excuses to persuade Xu Yi to stay, and she was extremely nervous. When she heard Xu Yi agree so readily, she did not react in time and raised her head in astonishment.

In less than three seconds, Li Yan revealed a smile. “Follow me. She is waiting for you in the living room.”

Xu Yi nodded and took the lead to walk in front.

Fang Qing followed closely behind.

However, when Li Yan saw that she was following, she revealed a troubled expression. She stopped Fang Qing and said apologetically, “Miss, please wait for a moment. Can I arrange for you to wait in the lounge? Lu Si wants to meet Mr. Xu alone.”

Fang Qing blinked and looked at Xu Yi. She listened out for Xu Yi.

But now that Xu Yi thought he was going to see Lu Si himself, he couldn’t hide his excitement.

“You and Miss Li go to the lounge and wait for a moment. I’ll come to you when I’m done.”

Because of the painting?

Fang Qing pursed her lips, her heart felt empty, she did not know why the expectations of a moment dissipated, she had no other choice.

She had to nod her head and hum softly. She didn’t even want to open her mouth.

Xu Yi might not have noticed Fang Qing’s change.

However, Li Yan could still see it clearly. When she sent Fang Qing to the resting room, she smiled and started a conversation. “What is your relationship with Mr. Xu? This is the first time I’ve seen Mr. Xu bringing a lady to an event.”

Li Yan naturally knew a lot about Xu Yi.

It was necessary to know a lot before coming into contact with a person.

Fang Qing was stunned for a moment, but she quickly replied, “A superior-subordinate relationship.”

That relationship could not be mentioned. If she were to say they were friends, there might be rumors and gossip. Fang Qing had to deal with these things on purpose.

“Is that so? Mr. Xu is a very attractive person. He’s very charming. May I ask if he has a lot of people chasing after him? As long as it’s a woman, you can’t refuse yourself taking a liking to him, right?”

Li Yan looked meaningfully at Fang Qing’s reaction and pretended to be unintentionally emotional.

Fang Qing smiled. “I have nothing to say. Regarding Mr. Xu’s personal matters, I don’t ask or understand.”

“Oh, oh, I’m sorry.”

Faced with Fang Qing’s merciless rejection, Li Yan was not annoyed at all. Instead, she smiled and brought up the topic.

She opened the door to the lounge and turned to the side.

“Please come in. I’ll contact you after they’re done.”

“Okay.”

Fang Qing nodded politely and went straight in.

There was no one inside. After Li Yan left, Fang Qing was like a pile of mud. She collapsed on the sofa and looked at the ceiling above her head with a helpless and bitter smile.

She tried her best to let herself be at ease. This painting was indeed no longer related to her.

Indeed, she shouldn’t think too much about it.

This way, she wouldn’t be disappointed.

…

As soon as Xu Yi entered the room, Lu Si stood up immediately.

She was wearing a high-end custom-made gown. The red color showed her elegance. Lu Si was obviously dressed up exquisitely. From top to bottom, every part of the gown was designed perfectly, magnifying her beauty.

Just like at this moment, when Lu Si smiled, her entire body seemed to have its own light.

It was dazzling.

Xu Yi naturally knew a lot about Lu Si, but the Lu Si in front of him still made his eyes light up.

“Hello, Mr. Xu. I’m Lu Si. Nice to meet you.”

Xu Yi suppressed the excitement in his heart and held Lu Si’s hand like a gentleman. “Hello, I’m Xu Yi.”

As a woman, Lu Si had a strong sixth sense about Xu Yi’s expression.

She knew very well that this man had been completely taken by her beauty.

The smile on her face became brighter and brighter. Just as she was about to speak, Xu Yi spoke first.

“Regardless of the reason Miss Lu invited me here, before you talk, I have to thank you.”
