Chapter 1088

After Ye Ruan followed Mrs. Meier into the hall of the villa where Xu Hongbo lived, Xu Hongbo followed and gave the assistant a wink. His assistant immediately understood, and went to the study to take out a very delicate slender box.

The box opened to reveal a beautifully framed scroll.

From the box and scroll alone, you can see how precious this painting is.

Xu Hongbo personally took the scroll and unfolded it. A picture of shrimp playing under the lotus popped into view. The lotus petals also had dewdrops, which contrasted with the transparent shrimps playing in the clear water. With a different kind of distant mood.

When Mrs. Meier saw this painting, her pupils were so surprised that her pupils dilated, and people could see at a glance how much she liked this painting.

Ye Ruan also quietly looked at this exquisite painting beside him.

Indeed, this painting has a bit of Qi Lao's charm from the use of brushstrokes to the use of color and white space, and it is even more delicate than Qi Lao's paintings she has seen before.

But it was also because it was too delicate that Ye Ruan knew that the painting was fake.

Qi Lao is an informal person. He is also good at sketching the charm of the whole painting with just a few strokes. His painting is more about spirit than shape.

And this painting is too particular about shape, and every part is meticulously decorated, so that it loses a bit of charm.

However, Ye Ruan just stood there quietly, listening to Xu Hongbo discussing and praising the painting with Mrs. Meier, and said nothing.

．

On the lawn outside, after receiving a phone call, Gu Chen politely said goodbye to Mr. Meier, "Mr. Meier, I have an old friend who has come to Yucheng. If I need to pick it up, I will say goodbye first."

Mr. Meier stood up and raised his glass to Gu Chen: "I have seen the project your company has made. You have done better than I thought, and I appreciate it very much."

"Thank you." Gu Chen replied lightly, and went to the villa where the Xu family's siblings lived to find Ye Ruan.

After Ye Ruan heard that he was going to pick up someone, he thought about it and said, "I will accompany Mrs. Meier to appreciate Qi Lao's paintings. You can go by yourself, I will wait for you here."

Gu Chen rubbed the top of her hair without hesitation, "Okay, wait for me here, be careful. If you have any problems, call Qiu Shun."

"Yeah." Ye Ruan nodded obediently.

After Gu Chen left, Mr. Meyer also went to Mrs. Meyer's side. On the long French dining table, only Xu Rui and Bernie were left.

Xu Rui shook the goblet gently in her hand, and the bright red wine in the glass swayed seductively.

Xu Rui blinked her eyes at Bernie with a hint of charm in the innocent expression on her face, and asked in a coquettish voice, "Brother Bernie, I think the love between you and Sister Danqing is so legendary and touching. , can you tell me more about it?"

Bernie got up and was about to leave, but when he heard Xu Rui's words, he immediately dismissed his thoughts, and began to seriously recall the bits and pieces between him and Chen Danqing, and tell Xu Rui to listen.

He was not originally a deep character. For so many years, he kept Chen Danqing in his heart, and he was really suffocated. So now someone is willing to listen to him tell the story between him and Chen Danqing, which makes him very happy.

Bernie was serious, and Xu Rui listened intently while pouring wine into Bernie's glass.

Bernie talked too much. He was thirsty and didn't want to drink, so he put aside the wine glass that Xu Rui handed over.

Xu Rui looked at Bernie's movements, her eyes flashed slightly. Before pouring Bernie's wine, she had hidden the medicine in her fingernails. When pouring the wine, she had put the medicine into the glass.

As long as Bernie drinks her wine, it's impossible for Bernie to run out of her palm tonight.

But now Bernie doesn't drink...

Just when she was about to persuade Bernie to drink, Mr. Meyer came out of Mrs. Meyer's side.

Xu Rui rolled her eyes, picked up the wine glass and poured a glass of wine. This time, she didn't plan to add ingredients to the wine, but because she was guilty of being a thief, she was a little flustered in pouring the wine, so that she didn't even notice the inside of her fingernails. Some remnants of powder fell into Mr. Meyer's cup.

She stood up gracefully, picked up the glass of wine that Bernie had just poured, and handed them to Bernie and Mr. Meier respectively, "I came out with my brother this time, and it is an honor to meet Mr. Meier and Bernie. Brother Ni, I toast you."

She has already said so, Mr. Miles and Bernie are naturally hard to refuse as men. They each took the wine glasses from her and took a polite sip.

Mr. Meier is not someone who can take care of children. After drinking, he wished Bernie and Xu Rui a happy chat, while he went back to the villa and into the study.

Mr. Meier left, and Xu Rui talked to Bernie about Chen Danqing's topic.

Bernie was talking excitedly, but he felt a dizziness in his head, and his eyes were a little blurry.

In front of him, Xu Rui gradually changed into the appearance of Chen Danqing. He frowned, shook his head forcefully, and blinked hard to look at Xu Rui in front of him.

But it still looks like Chen Danqing.

A flash of ecstasy instantly appeared on his face, he rushed over and hugged Xu Rui, "Qing, you know that I came to China to find you, so you made a special trip to see me, right?

do you know? In the ten years since you left, I have been thinking of you, every day, every night, every minute and every second. "

He held up Xu Rui's face and asked affectionately, "Qing, do you miss me?"
