Chapter 1256: This Painting Is Mine

Entering the main hall, Xia Wanyuan raised an eyebrow when she saw the person standing inside.

“Welcome to this place.” The person who spoke was young and beautiful. She spoke fluent Chinese. It was Li Qingxue.

Back then, after being sent back by Jun Shiling, Li Qingxue quickly completed her studies and entered England’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs with the help of her family.

She had a good family background and was beautiful. In addition, she had a high education background and was capable of doing things. Soon, she became a rising young lady in England’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Li Qingxue had strongly requested to participate in this event herself. England had considered that she had half of Chinese blood in her and could speak English fluently, so they allowed her to participate.

Now, Li Qingxue was wearing a professional suit. She looked at Xia Wanyuan arrogantly. “Mrs. Jun, long time no see.”

“Long time no see.” Xia Wanyuan nodded at Li Qingxue calmly.

“This way, please.” The person in charge of the museum led the way and did not notice the undercurrent between Li Qingxue and Xia Wanyuan.

England had always been famous for its culture. The famous England Museum had even gathered many treasures.

The person-in-charge did not know Chinese, so he simply handed the commentary to Li Qingxue.

As Li Qingxue walked, she slowly introduced to Xia Wanyuan and the rest.

Back then, when England entered China, they snatched many precious items back. Now, those items that originally belonged to China were lying in a glass cabinet, introduced by Li Qingxue as a treasure of England.

“There shouldn’t be such a good porcelain bottle in China, right?” Li Qingxue introduced a porcelain bottle that could be called a national treasure of China to Xia Wanyuan and deliberately mentioned this.

Logically speaking, it was extremely inappropriate to say such things on such an occasion.

However, firstly, although they had invited many reporters today, they were all waiting in the hall outside. Secondly, England had an arrogant attitude to begin with. Their conversation with the Chinese Foreign Ministry yesterday had dissatisfied them. Today, they wanted to kill China’s spirit.

Hence, under Li Qingxue’s provocation, no one from England came out to stop her.

“Miss Li, although you have half of China’s blood in you, you don’t seem to know much about China.” It was not suitable for the others to stand up and argue with a junior like Li Qingxue, so Xia Wanyuan consciously stood up.

“I wonder if Miss Li has heard of the porcelain mother bottle? The imitation glaze, imitation brother glaze, imitation official glaze, kiln glaze, pink and green glaze, clear blue glaze, pine green glaze, and sauce glaze are all top-notch. In terms of craftsmanship, they’re actually much better than the one you just mentioned. Miss Li, have you heard of blue and white flowers? And pink and colored ones?”

Li Qingxue had originally taken the reception desk book here and only understood it briefly.

She was not Chinese, so why would she spend time learning so much? She was immediately stumped by Xia Wanyuan’s question and was a little speechless. “This is all China’s history. It has nothing to do with the England Museum.”

“Since it’s not related, then introduce the treasures of England properly. Why are you talking about China?” Xia Wanyuan looked down at her from above, her oppressive aura making one unable to breathe.

The Chinese were sweating in their hearts. Although they did not know why Xia Wanyuan said this, they still subconsciously believed her.

However, the people from England were not so kind. The mockery on everyone’s faces was obvious.

The England Museum was an extremely advanced museum in the world. Any collection that could be placed here could be considered a national treasure.

The collections that could enter the warehouse had all undergone heavy inspection.

And now, Xia Wanyuan said that she had drawn this painting. Fortunately, this was the museum’s venue. The foreign ministries of both sides were present, so everyone’s expressions were not especially exaggerated.

If it were outside, someone would probably laugh out loud.

At this point, the situation had already become tense. The curator only wanted to take China down a notch, but he did not expect it to become like this. He gave Li Qingxue a look.

What he meant was for Li Qingxue to find a way out for Xia Wanyuan and pass this matter over. Everyone would pretend not to hear what Xia Wanyuan said.

However, at this moment, Li Qingxue’s heart was filled with resentment towards Xia Wanyuan. She did not want to understand the curator’s hint at all.

She walked forward and glanced at the ancient painting displayed in the glass cabinet. “Mrs. Jun, do you know what the England Museum represents? You insulting a museum with hundreds of years of history like this is equivalent to insulting the entire England.”

Li Qingxue’s words were very serious. The expression of the staff of the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs immediately changed.

The deputy head looked at Xia Wanyuan’s expression. Although he was still in shock, he waved his hand and gestured for his subordinates to calm down.

According to their interactions during this period of time, everyone was more familiar with Xia Wanyuan. He believed that Xia Wanyuan should not be such a brainless person. She should have her own reasons for saying this.

Xia Wanyuan was looking at the ancient painting in the window.

This was the first time she had seen her work in the modern world. She was puzzled.?Could it be that I really existed in the history of this world? Otherwise, how could one explain this painting in front of me??

The style in this ancient painting was different from her current painting style, but it was indeed from her.

This painting was something she had accidentally graffitied when she was in charge of the three armies.

At that time, her mind was open and she was more busy every day. She was like a sharp sword, and even when she drew, she had a sharp aura.

Xia Wanyuan was still deep in thought. In Li Qingxue’s eyes, she felt that Xia Wanyuan was guilty.

Li Qingxue was just worried that she could not find an opportunity to embarrass Xia Wanyuan. Now, she had an opportunity. She gave a look not far away.

Soon, a portion of the media reporters outside the hall were let in.

The others looked at the media reporters and thought to themselves that something was wrong.

At this moment, the curator stood up. “Miss Xia, according to many of our evidence, there’s an 80% chance that this painting was done by a painter from the Han Country.”

In fact, England had never tested the authenticity of this guess on the ground. However, back then, this painting was obtained by the Han Country. In addition, after the Han Country’s representative came to take a look, he said with certainty that this was their national treasure, so everyone believed it.

There were many Han people in the media team. When everyone heard the curator’s words, they mocked her in their hearts and took photos of Xia Wanyuan with their cameras.
