"As the old saying goes, ignorance is a blessing. The ancients did not deceive me!"
Chu Chen looks at Nan Nan with a big smile and mutters to himself. Then he takes Wu Ke and Nan nan to say goodbye for the sake of something else. The other party also politely asks for a taxi for them. After seeing them leave by taxi, he happily walks back to the store.
Sitting in a taxi, Chu Chen said to Wu Ke apologetically: "coco, I'm so sorry. I'll go shopping with you the day after tomorrow! Hiss... "
At last, Wu Ke twisted Chu Chen's waist and said angrily, "do you think I'm a Shopaholic and I'm not willing to buy anything with you?"
"No way!" Chuchen immediately said with a smile: "this is not delayed our afternoon trip?"
Wu Ke stretched out his index finger and nodded on Chu Chen's face: "for me, no matter shopping or shopping with you, as long as I can be with you, I am very happy. If there is any delay, don't say that next time!"
"Coco, I'm happy to be with you, too!" Chu Chen was moved by the speech, and suddenly he hugged Wu Ke and gave him a kiss.
"You don't want to look around here, either!" Wu Ke is flushed by chuchen's sudden attack and gives chuchen a few blows on his arm.
Chuchen laughs happily, and the driver in front laughs a few times.
After laughing for a while, Chu Chen's mobile phone suddenly rings. He takes it out and finds out that it's Vincent's phone number, which makes him a little strange. According to the agreement, Vincent will send a car to pick them up tomorrow morning. Now he calls, is there something wrong?
Chu Chen thought and answered the phone, but he always felt that Vincent had something to ask for.
"Mr. Vincent, you didn't call just to say hello to me, did you?"
Vincent thought he could get down to business, so he said with a smile, "Chu, actually I have something I want to ask for your approval."
Chu Chen listened to his tone very politely, and knew that what he asked for should not be small, but he had nothing to do with the other party except for tomorrow's exchange of cultural relics. Since the other party had something to ask for, it must be in this matter.
"You don't think, Mr. Vincent?" he asked, frowning
“NONONO!” Vincent repeatedly said that this was not the case, saying: "I like your Athenian School very much. I have not changed the idea of exchanging things for things, but..."
After listening to Vincent's hesitation, Chu Chen couldn't stand it. He said, "Mr. Vincent, if you have anything to say, just say it directly."
"So it is Vincent thought over the wording, and then said, "I know the value of your painting, and I know that if I want to exchange it for your painting, I should use most of my collection. However, as you know, my family's collection is only a few hundred years old. "
"Therefore, I'd like to discuss with you whether those treasures can be counted less, and other cultural relics with slightly lower value can be replaced?"
After listening to Vincent's request, Chu Chen was very speechless. He just wanted those national treasure collections with lower value, which he really didn't want.
Vincent actually understood chuchen's idea. He would not like to change it to him, but as he said, these things are treasures of generations for hundreds of years. If he changed most of them to chuchen, how could he go to see his ancestors in the old Chinese saying?
Vincent really liked Chu Chen's painting very much, or he was eager to improve his reputation in the collection industry, so he quickly added to Chu Chen and said, "Chu, I also know that this requirement is unreasonable for you, but I will certainly compensate you in other ways!"
Chu Chen was in a bit of a dilemma about this. First of all, he knew that good steel should be used on the blade. If the Athenian School was used to exchange some relatively low value objects, it would be outrageous. He certainly didn't want to. But he didn't want to refuse the deal with Vincent, because there were several items in Vincent's collection that he wanted to get, which made him feel very difficult for a moment.
"Huh?"
Chu Chen had a flash of inspiration in his mind. He suddenly thought that he did not only have a famous work such as the Athenian School. The value of another work in the eyes of Westerners was no lower than that of the Athenian School. There's an old saying that it's rare. He doesn't believe that Vincent will not be moved when he sees the picture that was born.
"If you don't agree, I don't have to hang myself from a tree at all." Chu Chen, adhering to the idea of maximizing interests, thought of it. His decision was certainly not the result Vincent wanted, but then again, when his grandparents robbed in China, was it easy to talk about it?
"Chu, are you still listening?"
Hearing the voice from the mobile phone, Chu Chen recovered and said, "Mr. Vincent, we'd better meet tomorrow to talk about this matter. We can't make it clear on the phone."Vincent felt that Chu Chen would not make a decision immediately, so he called Chu Chen now to let him be prepared. Moreover, he felt that since Chu Chen said so, there was still room for negotiation, so he immediately agreed, then exchanged greetings and hung up.
Wu can see Chu Chen put away the mobile phone after the tight frown, can't help but worry: "ah Chen, what happened?"
Chu Chen's expression is half true and half false. This is also because the painting has not yet been taken out. Of course, he has to show some corresponding emotions. And now he really felt a little tricky, because he really didn't know what reason to take out the picture hidden in the frame.
It can't be said that Chu Chen smashed the picture frame for no reason? And he smashed out a painting, so Wu didn't think he had a problem! Although Wu Ke knows the truth and won't take the initiative to tell the secret, just as he said before, he has no plan to tell Wu Ke about it now.
"Forget it, the boat will go straight when it comes to the bridge. If it's a big deal, I'll pretend to damage it by accident."
Chu Chen, who couldn't think of a good idea for a long time, could only hold such an idea. Then he saw Wu Ke, whose face was full of worry. He patted her little hand and said with a smile, "it's OK. It's Vincent who gave me a problem..."
Then he told Wu Ke what Vincent had just said on the phone.
After hearing the cause and effect of the incident, Wu Ke said angrily: "how can this man be like this! How can we go back on what we have said? "
Chu Chen laughs: "from his standpoint, of course, he wants to change as little as possible, but of course, I can't be happy about it!"
"Ah Chen, what are you going to do?" Wu Ke asked with a frown.
"What should I do? It's cold sauce, of course!" Chuchen grinned and spread his hand.
Wu Ke was amused with a "puff" smile, and then coquettishly said: "speak quickly!"
"All right! okay! I said, "not yet!" Chu Chen said with a smile: "anyway, we are also rare. I will discuss with him tomorrow. If he insists on doing so, I will replace him. Anyway, there are tens of millions of cultural relics left in exile in our country. I don't believe that Vincent is the only one who has those treasures!"
"Yes! I support you. You shouldn't be polite when dealing with those foreign devils! " Wu Ke nodded heavily, and then she immediately remembered that the one driving in front of her was a foreign devil, which made her feel embarrassed.
"Well, he doesn't understand Chinese!" Chuchen said with a smile.
Wu Kewen immediately responded that she was worried. She immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Her lovely appearance made Chu Chen smile
When they returned to the room and put away their things, Wu Ke jumped to the bed and yelled, "I'm so tired!"
"You'll be tired, too!" Chuchen said with a smile.
"I'm human, how can I not be tired!" Wu Ke gives Chu Chen a look that you are an idiot.
"That morning, you strolled so long, I didn't see you shout tired!"
"That's a woman's nature, isn't it?"
Speaking of this, Wu Ke got up from bed and mentioned the things she had bought in the morning. She wanted to take stock of the harvest in the morning.
Watching Wu Ke take things out and appreciate them carefully, and then wear the ornaments to let him comment on them, Chu Chen feels very warm. However, when he sees Wu Ke pick up the bag with the painting and put it on his face, he feels a little strange.
"Coco, don't you like this painting?" Chu Chen asked.
"I like painting, but it was picked up from the dustbin. God knows what's on it!" At this point, Wu Ke thought that there might be something very disgusting in this painting. He immediately felt very disgusted, and the disgust on his face was even worse.
Seeing Wu Ke's reaction, Chu Chen immediately remembers that Wu Keke is a cleanliness addict, which reminds him of the past.
Chu Chen grew up in a mountainous area where he was short of water. It's impossible for him to take a bath every day, let alone every day. It's normal to take a bath every half a month. So, when he came to the capital, Wu Ke could not bear the same habit as before. Although she didn't speak acrimoniously, she was also very ugly. She tried her best to make Chu Chen develop the habit of loving health.
It can be said that some of Chu Chen's living habits were formed during that period. At the same time, he was reluctant to recall the past at that time. Based on the situation at that time, he would not have thought that he would be with Wu Ke now.
