Chapter 13
Chapter 13
Chen Yi has been preparing to open a gallery since she came back from the UK. She delayed there when she broke her hand a while ago, and suddenly got married a few days later. The gallery has not been on the right track. His parents are busy recently. Set the date on the eighth day of January, and I am busy with trivial things.
The weather was still cold, and Chen Yi didn't like to go out, so she stayed at home and played games all day.It had been half a month since that day since Luo Qian, and he always felt a little awkward, although he agreed, it was not so weird, let alone the absurd marriage.
It has been snowing for a week, and the gray sky finally came out. He made an appointment with Sui Qi to see the renovation of the gallery. When he went out, he took a deep breath. He was still shivering from the cold. There were few cars and people on the road, and he was walking on the ice. I was trembling because I was afraid of slipping. I didn’t know who was walking the dog in the community.Chen Yi put on a gray overcoat and a white turtleneck sweater underneath. Her face was white, and she looked like a movie star. Chen Yu said that he would be fine if he caught a cold. He said he didn't expect to be able to suppress the cold. , just look good.
It was the first time for him to drive when his arm was healed, he was not afraid, he drove at a trot and swished around, when he stopped at the ground, he saw Sui Qi standing at the door talking to someone.
He didn't go there, and stood sideways at the bottom of the corridor with his pockets in his back, waiting. Sui Qi also saw Chen Yi, and greeted him over there to find him.
"It's over?"
Sui Qi nodded and said, "A friend I met said he had a painting in his hand and wanted to sell it to you."
Although Chen Yi has not been back for a few years, everyone in the circle knows that the youngest son of the Chen family is an expert, and none of the items he selected are worthless. He not only borrowed his father's reputation from the auction house, but also has real skills.
"I'll definitely accept good things." Chen Yi took out her mobile phone and handed it to Sui Qi while walking up, "Look at this."
In the photo album is a pocket watch with a celadon circle pattern, hollowed out in the middle, and a sheep's head carved, which is very delicate.
"Where did you find it? It's not cheap."
Chen Yi put the phone in her pocket and laughed, "A normal reflow mechanical watch."
"Is this normal?" Sui Qi touched his chest, "I said, young master, do you want to reach out to other places? Antiques are very deep, you can think carefully."
Chen Yi put her coat on the sofa, went to make two cups of instant coffee and brought them over, sipped her mouth and frowned, "It's really bad." Putting down the cup, she said, "I don't want to play with antiques, I just like watches, don't worry Well, the gallery isn’t on the right track and I don’t have the time to work on it. Besides, I’m busy getting married right now, so keep an eye on me these two days, because the last time I painted it, I made a mistake.”
"Okay, let me keep an eye on it... No, you just said you were going to get married?" Sui Qi stared at him, almost spilling the coffee in his pants.
Chen Yi looked at the painting on the table and responded casually, "Well, it's the eighth day of the first month, remember to follow along."
"The eighth day of January? A flash marriage?"
Chen Yi didn't tell them about the marriage, so she knew that this group of people would make a fuss. She originally chose a calm announcement, but it turned out to be too difficult.
"It's not a flash marriage, but it's still a childhood sweetheart. You also know the other one, and you even had dinner together."
Sui Qi thought for a while but still wasn't sure, "It can't be Luo Qian, can it?"
Chen Yi picked up the painting and put it on the felt cloth and said, "It's just him, you wait to talk to Teng Jia and the others, I won't notify you, just keep shouting loudly and loudly, for fear of deafening your ears."
Sui Qi sat on the sofa in a mess, completely confused about how the two people who wanted to strangle each other to death got together, but luckily he was strong enough to accept this reality within 2 minutes.Shaking his head in amazement, "I didn't expect it. Fate is so unexpected. You two were pinching each other a while ago, and you both have to get married next month."
Chen Yi rolled his eyes at him, "Love is like a tornado, haven't you heard of it?"
"No, you're not a tornado, at least it's a sandstorm."
The two talked again and planned to go to Jinshikou. Jinshikou is a small antique market. There are also people who are knowledgeable, and there are many people who buy and play. It is just across from the old Dongji Hutong. Its fakes are mixed with real ones. For sale, but some people also accept fake ones, and they can make a lot of money by selling them. Chen Yi likes to go shopping when she has nothing to do. In the past two days, I received a letter saying that there was an old man setting up a stall there, and there was a broken painting on the ground. Experts saw that it was "Wang Xianzhi's Picture Album", and Chen Yi was very itchy. After arranging things in the store, she planned to take Sui Qi to see it. Just as she was about to go downstairs, she heard a voice at the door, "Is your boss there?"
They didn't lock the door when they were decorating, and usually only workers came in and out. Chen Yi went down and saw the person standing in the lobby, and felt strange. The person was covered tightly and was wearing a mask.
"I'm the boss, may I ask who you are?"
The man seemed a little embarrassed, holding a painting tube tightly in his hand, "Hello...I want you to estimate the price for me."
Chen Yi is wearing invisible clothes today, her hair is loose on her shoulders, she has lost her usual gentle and gentle appearance, she puts her hands in her pockets with a cold face, and there is still a sense of arrogance in her bones, most people are a little scared when they see it.
In their business, estimating is quite a job. You are famous, and only people buy the things you estimate. Chen Yi did this a few times before going abroad, but now she doesn't take it much anymore.
He smiled and said, "I'm sorry, I don't value it, so I'll trouble you to make a trip in vain."
The man in the mask was a little anxious when he heard this, and was interrupted by another voice just as he was about to speak.
"There's no parking lot in this lousy place. It took me a long time to walk around. How's the discussion going?"
Luo Qian kicked the decoration materials on the ground aside, walked over holding his nose, and saw Chen Yi when he raised his eyes. Coincidentally, Chen Yi was also looking at him.
"It's not too late to refuse after you have a look." Cheng Yan hurriedly opened the painting, Chen Yi retracted her gaze and held his hand and smiled again, "Mr. Guess, please come back."
After he finished speaking, he turned around and went upstairs, Cheng Yan wanted to stop him but was stopped by Luo Qian, "Give me the things and I'll ask, if it doesn't work, I'll ask Suhang to help you find out."
"He is an auctioneer, and I don't trust anyone except him."
Cheng Yan was discouraged and sat on the stool, not knowing what to do. He would not have sold this painting if it was not a last resort. Chen Guolin's young master is the one who is in the sky. As long as he looks at it, he will definitely sell his things. After asking a lot of people, he knows that he is going to open a gallery here. He has come here several times but has not met him. Today, he finally saw the result. People do not accept.
"Don't worry, wait for me here." Luo Qian took the painting upstairs after finishing speaking.
