Chapter Ninety-Seven: Little Kitten, Come Hear Me Call Your
and looked at the little girl's face full of longing, "It's just marketing, only fools would believe it."Mu Xing pouted, "Uncle Xiao is saying I'm stupid"Fu Lingxiao pursed his lips and chuckled soft...“It wasn't me, it was my uncle.”
Mu Xing denied it very flatly. She didn't want to expose herself and cause unnecessary trouble.
"I heard he said you want to cancel the deal. Delaying the transaction time is our problem, and as an apology, we can offer you a slight discount."
Here, on the phone, Ye Feibai's handsome face was full of smiles. It turns out even a little wildcat can be polite sometimes.
From her attitude, it was clear she hadn't figured out it was him.
He had long been determined to win her over, and now that she herself had handed him the opportunity, how could he possibly let it slip away!
"Money's no object, I can easily afford two hundred million. I don't lack a little bit of cash. If you want to continue the deal, it's very simple, just agree to one condition of mine."
What conditions
"I'll tell you the details when we meet. Three hours from now, don't miss the Beijie Art Gallery."
After Ye Fei Bai finished speaking, he hung up the phone without giving Mu Xing any time to react.
Mu Xing looked at the dark phone screen, her eyebrows furrowed involuntarily. This buyer was so strange, could there be a trap
But right now, the priority is to help the principal raise enough money. As for the traps, we'll just have to play it by ear!
Mùxīng gave Shūzhǎng a call to inform him that she had agreed with the seller for a transaction three hours later. Just as she hung up, her phone rang again.
Seeing the caller ID, Mu Xing suddenly slapped her forehead. She had actually forgotten about her little uncle!
Upon answering the call, she nervously exclaimed, "Uncle."
I thought he'd be angry, but on the phone came a man's gentle voice, "I've been in a meeting all day and forgot to call you that I couldn't pick you up. Have you gotten home yet"
In fact, he had already clocked out and been waiting in the office for Mu Xing to get off work. He waited and waited but didn't see her. He was worried so he called her.
Mu Xing didn't know where he got that information. Hearing the man say he had just finished a meeting, she let out a big sigh of relief and said, "Little Uncle, I haven't gone home yet. I'm at Qingyun Mountain right now. I want to stay here for a while longer. Can I go home later"
The man's tone was very indulgent, "Okay, give me a call when you want to go home, I'll pick you up."
Mùxīng hurriedly refused: “No need, little uncle, I can come back by myself.”
The man didn't insist, only saying, "Be careful and call me anytime if something happens."
Okay, little uncle, goodbye!
After hanging up the phone, Mu Xing remembered that her uncle's superpower allowed him to see what was on her phone. She immediately deleted the call records with Principal Sun and the buyer.
She didn't want her uncle to know that she was helping Principal Sun.
The ink drawing still needs some time to dry. Mu Xing took advantage of this time to pack the herbs he had saved before and some detoxification and worm-removing pills made by his master into his schoolbag. These would be very useful when taken back!
After she had finished, she went to the door and wanted to call Wu Di over to "catch up." She touched her neck and realized she hadn't brought her whistle. She could only go back inside and sit in the room waiting.
After the ink had dried, Mu Xing carefully rolled up the painting and placed it in the paint tube. She fastened it to her back and locked the door before heading down the mountain.
Principal Sun was standing by the car, looking expectantly. When Mu Xing emerged from the overgrown mountain path, he excitedly went up to him: "Mu Xing, did that buyer really agree to continue the transaction"
Just now, Mu Xing said on the phone that the buyer agreed to continue the transaction, but didn't say anything else. This made Principal Sun somewhat uncertain.
"Well, let's go to Beijie Gallery Appraisal now."
Mu Xing got into the car first.
After being surprised, Principal Sun also sat up and turned his head to drive towards the city.
When they reached Bei Street, it was already half past ten at night. All the shops on the street were closed, except for the Painting Appraisal Shop which was still open, apparently waiting for their arrival.
Mu Xing handed the painting tube to Principal Sun and immediately pushed the door open with him.
In the reception hall, with an antique charm, a faint sandalwood aroma hung in the air.
A man in a light-colored suit leaned back against the red lacquered armchair behind the tea table. The moment he saw the girl, his lips curled into a smirk, his face full of evil charm, "Hi! Little kitty cat."
Mu Xing couldn't help but be startled, "How is it you"
Ye Fei Bai raised an eyebrow, "Surprised Unexpected"
What a surprise! Out of the blue!
One meal cost her 228,600 yuan, adding another burden to her already huge debt. She just wanted to smash his head!
Mu Xing glared at Ye Fei Bai with puffed cheeks and said to Principal Sun: "Draw it for him."
Principal Sun took out the painting from the tube and respectfully placed it on the tea table, unfolding it. "Young Master Ye, please take a look,"
"Take a look." Ye Fei said to the appraiser beside him.
Actually, he didn't care whether the painting was real or fake. Two hundred million dollars was nothing compared to the chance to play with a little wildcat.
The reason for the identification is simply to give the old man an explanation.
The appraiser stepped forward and compared the painting with the one belonging to Mr. Ye for authentication.
Ye Fei Bai looked at Mu Xing, "Let me tell you the conditions."
Mu Xing glared at Ye Fei Bai, not wanting to say a single extra word to him. She only used her eyes to signal him to speak quickly.
Ye Fei Bai didn't beat around the bush, getting straight to the point. "My condition is that you call me every day and say good morning and good night to me for a month."
"Just this" Mu Xing frowned in surprise.
She still thought he would propose some unreasonable conditions, but the result was just a phone call saying good morning and good night
Ye Fei Bai smiled and looked at Mu Xing, "Do you think it's not enough I don't mind if you add another good night."
"No, no, that's enough."
She's not that bored.
The appraiser finished his work, “Young Master Ye, this painting and the one you brought are indeed by the same hand, but…”
Ye Fei's white impatiently said: "Don't be so hesitant!"
"But this painting is new. Look here, and here, the ink hasn't dried yet."
Ye Fei Bai looked at the spots pointed out by the appraiser. As he said, the ink hadn't completely dried yet.
He turned his gaze to Principal Sun, "Where did you get this painting"
Principal Sun did not answer.
Ye Fei Bai directly threw money: "One million."
Principal Sun shook his head.
Ye Fei Bai continued to raise the bid, "Three million."
"Sorry, Ye Shao, it's not about money."
Principal Sun politely declined.
This painting was brought by Mu Xing from Mount Qiongyun, and it's a recent work, so the mysterious master must be on Mount Qiongyun.
In the past, he would have told Ye Fei Bai without hesitation, after all, a simple sentence could get him three million, and raising the price might even get him more. Why not do it
After these past few days' events, he has completely changed his attitude.
In this society that prioritizes money and profit above all else, there are still people who help him unconditionally. Even if he needs money again and becomes a scoundrel, he absolutely cannot be so ruthless.
Ye Fei's expression was resolute. He didn't ask any further questions, and took out a check. He looked at Mu Xing, "This is a check for two hundred million."
Mu Xing gestured for Principal Sun to take it, but Ye Feibai had already spoken first: “He can take it, I won’t give it.”
Mute Xing helplessly, could only step forward to take it.
Her hand had just reached out when Yè Fěibái suddenly took the check back. A smirk played on his devilishly handsome face, both alluring and sinister. "Little wildcat," he purred, "call my name."ful smirk, "I'm particularly delicious. If you want to taste it, I don't mind."Mu Xing frowned at Ye Feibai, this troublesome guy's brain didn't seem quite rightThat's why it's always been so strange....
