Could not be compared.
A good one could not be compared.
Fang Yunyi’s casual statement of “pocket money” was actually a high price worth seven-figures!
Furthermore, at that time, Shen Li had only been sixteen years old!
Producing a painting that could be auctioned at such a price at that age. If this were to be spread out, who knows how many people’s envy and admiration would be aroused?
!!
Who could not be compared to whom?
Xu Yini’s lips trembled. It was as if a basin of cold water had been poured over her head and her entire body felt cold.
Had Fang Yunyi heard what she said just now?
And this “can’t be compared” statement clearly included her!
Xu Yini had never thought that things would develop to such a state.
She looked to the opposite side of her and saw that Fang Yunyi was standing in front of Shen Li. It was an extremely clear protective stance!
But, but…!
This should be their first meeting today, right?
Moreover, Lu Huaiyu had not even disclosed the news of Fang Yunyi and Lu Zheng’s return to Shen Li yet. Didn’t this mean that they did not recognize Shen Li?
Why now–
The group of people could no longer withstand Fang Yunyi’s questioning and once again lowered their heads to apologize.
“Shen Li! I’m really sorry! What we said just now was nonsense. Please don’t take it to heart! We promise that we will never do this again!”
Fang Yunyi looked at Shen Li with a questioning gaze.
Initially, Shen Li had been too lazy to argue with such a person, so Fang Yunyi had personally stood up for her and said, “Aunt Fang, please don’t let this matter delay your viewing of the exhibition.”
Fang Yunyi’s heart skipped a beat. Ah, even at a time like this, the first person Ah Li thought of was still her!
Was this really that nice and considerate?
She was delighted by Ah Li’s words and said to the rest of them,”You might not understand, but the punishment for slander is quite heavy. However, since Ah Li isn’t interested in pursuing the matter, let’s forget about today’s matter. I hope that in the future, you can also use your profound experience and vast knowledge, or simply rely on your age to paint works that people like and are willing to pay for.”
Shen Li silently sighed.
There was not a single swear word in the entire sentence, yet she had still been able to kill the other party completely while chatting and laughing.
This person’s combat strength was truly superb.
The small group of people felt ashamed and fled in a panic.
Hence, very quickly, only Shen Li, Fang Yunyi, and Xu Yini were left there.
Shen Li looked at Fang Yunyi.
“Aunt Fang, thank you.”
“You don’t have to be so polite with me.” Fang Yunyi ran her hand over her hair, still as charming as ever.
Shen Li’s gaze swept past Xu Yini, whose expression was not very pleasant. She recalled what she had said earlier– that Fang Yunyi and Lu Zheng had originally planned to return in the middle of the month. So had it been brought forward?
Moreover, it looked like she had only just arrived in the Capital not long ago, yet she was already here to watch Ronai’s art exhibition?
“Aunt Fang, why are you here today?”
Fang Yunyi smiled faintly and said in an imposing manner,”Because I also like Ronai’s paintings.”
Also.
Shen Li felt that this sentence seemed a little strange, but she did not probe further.
Fang Yunyi blinked.
“Speaking of which, our interests are quite similar.”
Since she had already come to watch the Ronai art exhibition, they could be considered “kindred spirits.”
Shen Li smiled and nodded.
“Yes.”
When she smiled, her peach blossom eyes curved up, forming an extremely beautiful crescent moon.
Fang Yunyi had actually seen quite a number of Shen Li’s photos and videos before, but those were still very different from seeing her in person.
Seeing her face to face– the impact was too great.
Shen Li thought of another matter and asked with slight hesitation,”Oh right, I heard you mention it just now. I didn’t know that you knew so much about my painting?”
That painting had been auctioned off a long time ago. Fang Yunyi had even known the bidding price at that time.
Fang Yunyi said calmly,”Yes, I usually like to look at paintings, so I remember these things quite clearly. But–”
A faint look of disdain appeared on her face.
“The person who bought your painting is really stingy. Why didn’t he just make up the difference?”
Shen Li’s eyelids twitched.
“I don’t know who it is. He has good taste, but he doesn’t spend money fast enough.”
Shen Li coughed lightly and was about to discourage her.
However, she was not in time.
A lazy and low voice sounded.
“It was me.”
Fang Yunyi’s body stiffened, and she turned around to look.
After Lu Huaiyu finished his call, he saw Fang Yunyi, who was only supposed to be back the day after tomorrow, standing next to Shen Li.
He put one hand in his pocket and smiled.
“Mom, long time no see.”
…
Silence.
Shen Li had never thought that she would encounter such an awkward situation.
Considering that the source of this incident was still her painting, Shen Li inexplicably had a vague feeling of being a sandwich cookie.
She tried to save the situation.
“Um, Aunt Fang, actually–”
“That’s fine.”
Fang Yunyi quickly adjusted her state of mind at an astonishing speed, as if she had completely forgotten that her son had been caught talking behind her back. A rare satisfied smile appeared on her noble and cold face.
“Ah Li’s painting should be left at home, after all.”
Shen Li was dumbfounded.
Lu Huaiyu choked.
He subconsciously glanced at Shen Li. When he saw her slightly dazed gaze, he felt a faint headache coming on.
What had she just said?
Could she not have just restrained herself a little?
Xu Yini looked at him, feeling that she had been completely forgotten. She was flustered, embarrassed, and angry, but she still braced herself to speak.
“Aunt Fang, it’s great that you’re back early. I don’t know if you’re free today, but I’ve prepared a gift for you. It’s the red treasure from CHUIN–”
Before she could finish, Fang Yunyi’s phone vibrated.
She answered it.
“Hello, Store Manager Amy.”
Xu Yini’s heart skipped a beat. This name… why was it the same as the store manager at CHUIN?
“Okay, I got it. I’ve sorry for the trouble.”
Fang Yunyi quickly hung up and looked at Shen Li.
“Ah Li, I’ve ordered something for you. The earrings from CHUIN have arrived first. Would you like to take a look?”
Startled, Xu Yini immediately looked up!
