Xie Xuan seemed to be waiting for her to add him as a friend. When she sent the verification message, a chat window immediately appeared.
'You have added XX, and now you can start chatting.'
With the task completed, Lu Haiqiao tossed her phone aside and continued browsing the web.
He didn't seem to have the intention to initiate a conversation. After adding him as a friend, he did not send any messages.
She didn't pay much attention to it. All her focus was entirely on those three paintings.
She had been searching the web for a while but hadn't found any useful information. Lu Haiqiao got up, holding her cup, and decided to get some water from the pantry.
When she returned to her seat, her phone screen suddenly lit up.
An unread WeChat message was displayed in the center.
She quickly picked up her phone, and at that moment, an inexplicable sense of anticipation filled her.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt was a message from Xu Duo.
Peach Blossom Duo Duo Duo: "Haiqiao, he is back, right?"
In Xu Duo's message, the 'he' she referred to was none other than Lu Xuege, who had just gotten off the plane today.
Lu Haiqiao didn't rush to reply. Instead, she pulled out a chair and sat down. After taking a sip of her water, she looked at her phone screen again.
Two more messages had popped up in the chat window.
Peach Blossom Duo Duo Duo: "I just called him, but he didn't answer, so I asked you if he's back."
Peach Blossom Duo Duo Duo: "Alright, I know you can't be a spy for nothing. One for one. I have a secret about 'Spring River'. Do you want to know?"
Upon reading these WeChat messages, Lu Haiqiao raised an eyebrow.
What secret could there be about the painting, especially since she was the original artist?
Out of curiosity, she leisurely typed the word "tell", but before she could press send, another message from Xu Duo popped up.
Peach Blossom Duo Duo Duo: "I heard this from my old man."
Peach Blossom Duo Duo Duo: "The day after tomorrow at 10 a.m., the Xie family will publicly exhibit your 'Spring River' painting. In addition to that, there will be other famous artworks on display."
Peach Blossom Duo Duo Duo: "It's said that Xie Shengnan from the Xie family wants to invest in antique calligraphy and paintings, so she wants to get to know some celebrities in this circle."
Peach Blossom Duo Duo Duo: "Haiqiao, haven't you always wanted to buy back those three paintings? This is a great opportunity."
Peach Blossom Duo Duo Duo: "Previously, we only heard rumors, but now we've confirmed that the 'Spring River' painting is in the Xie family. As long as the price is right, Xie Shengnan should be willing to sell it to you."
After carefully reading the messages filling her screen, a smile tugged at the corner of Lu Haiqiao's lips.
Anything that could be solved with money wasn't a problem.
After some thought, she sent a WeChat message to Lu Xuege, inviting him to have dinner together tonight.
He replied in seconds. "Tonight? Sure, I just made plans with my little disciple. Want to join us?"
Lu Haiqiao: "..."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIf I agree to go with you, Xu Duo will come over with a knife to kill me.
"Forget it, you guys enjoy your meal."
Just as Lu Haiqiao was about to press send, a message from Lu Xuege appeared again on the screen.
"Baby, is this the person you want me to investigate?"
Below the text was an image taken from a webpage.
She clicked to enlarge it.
A picture of an old man around sixty years old, in a solo portrait.
Lu Haiqiao: "Are you kidding me?"
Lu Xuege: "Isn't it him?"
Lu Haiqiao: "Clearly, it's not."
I'm not a weirdo. How could I be interested in an old man?
