Today is Saturday. This art museum is the largest in Yunzhou and contains countless world-famous paintings.

Logically speaking, the art museum should be packed with people.

Upon entering the museum, there was only one staff member to greet them, and no other visitors.

"You booked this whole place?" Lu Zhiwei asked Shen Jinmo curiously.

Shen Jinmo shook his head: "No."

He knew that Lu Zhiwei disliked being high-profile and did not believe that art was a romantic tool for flaunting power.

Therefore, booking this place and preventing those who originally wanted to visit from coming was a decision that Lu Zhiwei disliked.

A staff member standing nearby smiled and explained to them, "It's like this, Mr. Shen and Ms. Lu are both very important figures in Yunzhou. With such distinguished guests visiting, our curator naturally wouldn't dare to neglect them, so today's tickets are not for sale to the public."

"Oh, I see. Thank you for your hospitality, curator." Lu Zhiwei was surprised by the curator's warm hospitality.

This art museum is privately owned, run by profit-driven businessmen.

Several of her early works are also in the museum's collection.

The curator was probably just trying to curry favor.

Lu Anyu's talent for painting was inherited from Lu Zhiwei.

He is not only proficient in painting, able to grasp any style at a glance, but also enjoys appreciating paintings of all types.

"Mommy, Mommy, this painting 'Fish Leaping' is so beautiful! Who is the artist who painted it?"

Lu Anyu stopped in front of a painting.

The painting depicts a crystal-clear stream.

The carp swam upstream, its body undulating.

The fish in the painting are incredibly lifelike and vibrant, and their struggling movements are quite adorable.

The babbling brook shimmered under the sunlight, its surface displaying distinct layers.

The colors are vibrant and the attention to detail is exquisite.

Shen Jingmo pointed to the signature in the lower right corner: "An'an, don't you know who ROSE is?"

"That's my mom's English name."

"so what?"

"Wow, Mommy, is this your work again? It looks so different from your usual style. I'm not good at recognizing it."

Lu Anyu leaned closer, studying and admiring the painting carefully, as if he wanted to crawl into the painting and take it away.

"These are early works, without too many concerns. With a pure heart, the paintings naturally have more spirit."

Lu Zhiwei smiled as she explained to her son, her expression radiating a serene elegance, like a delicate orchid.

"People express different things at different ages and with different social experiences. An'an, you'll understand when you grow up."

Shen Jinmo rubbed the little guy's shoulder.

The two of them taught their son their ideas together.

A complete and loving family environment is indeed beneficial to a child's growth.

The little guy seemed to understand, but he still nodded happily: "Daddy, Mommy, I understand."

He was really happy that his parents were able to stay with him during this time.

They skipped and hopped to another exhibition area.

Lu Zhiwei pushed Shen Jinmo and followed silently behind.

At this moment, a staff member suddenly came to their side: "Today, the curator has specially prepared two exquisite collections of different styles. One is for Mr. Shen and Young Master Lu to appreciate, and the other can only be appreciated by Miss Lu alone."

"Oh? What kind of collection requires men and women to view it separately?" Shen Jingmo raised his chin slightly, revealing a hint of curiosity.

"Take me there quickly, I want to see it, I want to see it!" Lu Anyu jumped up excitedly.

Seeing that Lu Anyu really wanted to see it, Lu Zhiwei didn't stop him: "Take An'an to see it. He's coming back to the US with me soon, so don't spoil his fun."

The staff member smiled and said to Shen Jinmo, "Mr. Shen, please bring Young Master Lu with you. Miss Lu, please wait a moment."

“Okay.” Lu Zhiwei nodded and continued looking at the painting from where she was.

The staff pushed Shen Jinmo and led Lu Anyu through the corridor to the backyard.

There is a separate building in the backyard, which is used by the owner to receive distinguished guests. It is elegantly decorated and has a very high level of privacy.

After Shen Jinmo and Lu Anyu went inside, the staff member smiled and said to them, "I'll go make some tea and then bring the collection over."

Not long after, an obese man walked into the reception room.

The staff member was holding the artwork in his hand.

"Mr. Shen, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting." The man's greasy face was plastered with a warm smile.

Shen Jinmo recognized the man at a glance; it was Mr. Lin, the curator of the art museum.

"Mr. Lin, I'd like to see what kind of priceless treasure this painting of yours is. Do men and women need to view it separately? Could it be something unclean? My child is still young."

Shen Jinmo's dark, deep eyes were filled with seriousness.

The curator waved his hand with a smile: "Then naturally they are paintings that depict health, sunshine, and positive themes."

He instructed his staff to dismantle the painting.

Lu Anyu leaned close to Shen Jinmo's ear and whispered, "Daddy, it's not like 'David,' is it? Mommy won't let me watch it now."

"Then how do you know about 'David'?" Shen Jin's dark eyes narrowed slightly.

Lu Anyu lowered his head, intertwining his fingers shyly: "I saw it when I was looking at a collection of world-famous paintings. Shh, don't tell my mommy."

Lu Zhiwei, who remained in the exhibition hall, carefully admired the paintings on the wall.

She used to frequent this art museum; many works by artists from various alliances are displayed here.

She and Luo Wuyan often came here to inspect the new works of the alliance members and see if their painting skills had improved.

Thinking of Luo Wuyan, Lu Zhiwei felt a tightness in her chest.

Ever since she was taken back to Country M, she has been unable to contact her again.

So after accompanying Shen Jinmo to the art museum today, she will take An'an back to M country to rescue Luo Wuyan from her predicament.
