At this moment, Jian Ci was taken to the lounge next door by Xu Jiang.
Before he even entered the room, he heard Xu Jiang shouting towards the lounge, "Lao Xu, Lao He! This is my apprentice, Jian Ci!"
Jian Ci: “???”
Didn’t the staff say they wanted to communicate with her?
No matter how you look at Xu Jiang's excited look, it seems more like he is showing off.
Before he could figure it out, Xu Jiang pulled him into the room.
I saw a few people about Xu Jiang's age sitting inside, sitting together.
As soon as they heard Xu Jiang's voice, they looked up decisively.
The first person I saw was Jian Ci standing next to Xu Jiang.
The little girl was tall and dressed in casual clothes, and she didn't look like the young lady that people on the Internet described her as.
But that face is extremely beautiful.
The delicate eyebrows and eyes reveal a casual and unrestrained nature.
The man called Lao Xu said with a smile, "Is this the little girl who brought back the Book of Filial Piety? She's young, but she has a unique vision."
As a result, Xu Jiang immediately said protectively: "What little girl? This is the heir who will inherit my mantle in the future!"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present was stunned.
You should know that under normal circumstances, those who can become heirs must learn from their master for more than ten years, and they must have good talents and abilities before they can be recognized as heirs.
And now, this girl is just a freshman, but Xu Jiang has already confirmed her identity as the heir.
Sometimes it's a little...
Are you anxious?
Those people couldn't help but look at Jian Ci secretly.
Lao He on the side jokingly said: "Lao Xu, you are too precious, aren't you?"
Lao Xu echoed, "That's not true. I heard Lao Zeng wanted to rob someone, but he failed."
Others asked curiously, "Then Lao Xu didn't beat anyone up?"
Lao Xu laughed, "They didn't beat him, but I heard they had a quarrel in public."
…
Hearing this, those people burst into laughter.
Xu Jiang raised his chin slightly, "Anyone can grab it, but not this girl!"
Seeing that he said so, everyone naturally stopped talking.
After all, he is not their apprentice.
Then the topic turned to the calligraphy of "The Book of Filial Piety".
"Old Xu, we came here today just for this calligraphy and painting. Please don't let us down."
"That's right. No matter how many times I asked you before, you refused. Today, you have to feast our eyes on us."
"That's right, we have to be satisfied."
…
Xu Jiang pointed at Jian Ci who was sitting next to him, his eyes full of pride, and said, "You should ask Jian Ci about this. She is the owner of this calligraphy and painting."
Those people are all shrewd. Seeing that Xu Jiang mentions Jian Ci every other sentence, it is obvious that he wants to pull her into their circle and build momentum for her.
And Jian Ci is said to be the senior director of Tang Group.
Just for this reason, they have to give him face.
Therefore, those people asked with a smile: "Student Jian, is it okay?"
The person sitting next to Xu Jiang was playing with his phone. He raised his eyes and said casually, "Okay."
Those people thanked him politely, "Thank you so much, Mr. Jian."
Xu Jiang looked at their attitude and felt very satisfied.
His closed disciple should be respected like this!
Xu Jiang sat there, looking around, then he remembered something and said, "By the way, why hasn't Director Ge come yet?"
Lao Xu, who was sitting on the right, replied, "I seem to have been ill recently, so I'll be here a little later."
Xu Jiang was a little surprised. "What disease?"
Recently he has been dealing with the calligraphy and painting that Jian Ci bought back from the auction, so he didn't even know about this matter.
The other party said truthfully: "I heard it seems to be a strange disease. It is said that it causes headaches from time to time. I have seen both Chinese and Western doctors, but there is no cure."
As soon as these words were spoken, Jian Ci, who was sitting next to him, stopped playing with her mobile phone.
"How could this happen?" Xu Jiang still couldn't believe it. "Wasn't he fine when I saw him at the beginning of the year?"
The other party also sighed, "After all, he's old, and a little bit of illness is unavoidable."
Xu Jiang frowned. "That's true, but given his status in the industry, if anything were to happen to him, it would be a huge loss for our industry."
When the people around heard this, they couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
"Yes, I still hope he can recover soon. I still remember how he argued with Country Y and won back the painting 'Spring'."
“That was really exciting.”
"To be honest, he is an unshakable treasure in our industry."
…
Just as he finished speaking, there was a knock on the door.
“Knock knock knock—”
Everyone's eyes subconsciously looked towards the door.
As soon as they saw each other, they all stood up and shouted.
"Mr. Ge."
Ge Yuanbo, who was called Ge Lao, smiled and gestured for them to sit down again. "Sorry, I'm late."
Jian Ci, who was following Xu Jiang, looked up at him.
I noticed that his face didn't look very good.
It looks a little gray, and there is a bluish halo under the eyelids.
It's obvious that there's something wrong with the body.
Headache……
Why do I suddenly have a headache out of nowhere?
She frowned slightly.
At this time, those people were still chatting.
"It's not that you're late, it's that we're here too early. Old Xu hid the 'Book of Filial Piety' from us, and it made us all itchy. So we came here early, and ended up bothering Mr. Ge."
