Chapter 717 Meeting an acquaintance
The chief director of the Cultural Relics Committee nodded, walked up first, and greeted Professor Fred and Li Jinxing with a smile.
"Mr. Li, I'm sorry to ask you to come here directly after you got off the plane..." The general manager said apologetically to Li Jinxing.
"You're welcome. We've had a good rest on the plane and are not tired now. Business is more important!" Li Jinxing smiled faintly.
"There is one thing I would like to talk to Mr. Li alone..." The person in charge whispered to Li Jinxing. Li Jinxing nodded slightly, and the two walked aside.
The other people in the living room looked at each other, seeming a little embarrassed.
"Hi, Fred, long time no see—" The old curator Towfik walked up with a smile and gave Professor Fred a warm hug, breaking the awkward atmosphere.
"Tawfik, long time no see..." Professor Fred smiled faintly, carefully examining his old friend's face, and said with a smile, "You look in good spirits!"
"You too..." The old curator Taofik nodded happily, his eyes fell on Nie Yao's face again, and he said with a smile: "Fred, I haven't seen you for a while, and your daughter Ivy has become more beautiful!"
Nie Yao, who was standing beside him, also raised her lips slightly and said politely to the old curator, "Mr. Curator, long time no see..."
"Ivy, last time I heard from your adoptive father, you went back to recognize your relatives?" The old curator, Taofik, asked curiously, "What should I call you from now on? I heard you have a Chinese name, Nie Yao?"
"Old Director, you can continue to call me Ivy. It's okay. I like this name too!" Nie Yao shrugged and answered with a smile.
"Okay, Ivy..." The old curator nodded with a smile, his eyes fell on the diamond ring on her hand, his eyebrows slightly raised, stroking his chin and asked with a smile: "Ivy, are you getting married?"
"I'm engaged!" Nie Yao nodded, pointed at Li Jinxing, and explained to the lively old curator with a smile: "This is my fiancé Li Jinxing. This time, he is also the one who wants to donate their heirloom back!"
Li Jinxing had already finished chatting with the head of the Cultural Relics Committee. Seeing Nie Yao talking about him, he strode over and said with a polite smile, "Hello, Director. I'm Li Jinxing, Nie Yao's fiancé!"
"Mr. Li, nice to meet you!" The old curator, Tawfik, politely shook hands with Li Jinxing and praised him tirelessly, "You have such awareness. On behalf of our entire Egyptian Museum and Cultural Relics Department, I would like to thank you..."
Li Jinxing smiled faintly and replied modestly, "You're welcome. I've communicated with your Cultural Relics Committee before. I heard that you've been recovering cultural relics that have been lost overseas..."
"Yes, we have too many ancient cultural relics scattered around, and it is not easy to recover them, but everyone has been working hard!" The old curator Taofik nodded slightly and sighed.
"The cultural relic in Mr. Li's hands is an important discovery!" Steve on the side couldn't help but interrupted with a smile.
Upon hearing that it was an important discovery, the old curator, Tawfik, couldn't help but brighten up. He began to rub his hands excitedly and said, "I can't wait to see what this important cultural relic is and what era it came from..."
The head of the Cultural Relics Committee also cleared his throat at this time and slowly said, "Everyone, please sit down. I just communicated with Mr. Li and confirmed that the cultural relics he donated can be opened and seen, so we decided to hold the handover ceremony on site!"
