Chapter 66: People need face and trees need bark
After Shi Yan's tentative inquiry, Wang Li was very happy for Shi Yan to bring her good friend Yun Ying.
Wang Li saw Shi Yan limping down the stairs and immediately opened the car door to greet her. "Miss Shi, how did you get hurt?"
"It's a minor injury, Mr. Wang. It won't affect my writing activities today."
Wang Li reached out to support Shi Yan, but Yun Ying got there first and said, "Miss Shi, please go slower."
"Mr. Wang, thank you for your hard work."
It was obvious that Wang Li was unable to cope with a social terrorist like Yun Ying.
But Yunying has an impressive figure and is the type of person who is loved by everyone.
"It is my honor to serve you two beauties."
When Shi Yan came down, she probably told Yun Ying about the painting, which was a work she left behind when she went out to play in college, but was later lost.
Now he appears at the auction inexplicably again, Shi Yan must investigate thoroughly.
The auction has strict identity requirements. Even if Wang Li brings a friend, a series of checks must be carried out to prove that the two people are friends.
Wang Li led the two of them into the auction hall, raising his hand to loosen his tie to ease the awkwardness. "The requirements here are high, I hope you don't mind."
"No, Mr. Wang, you brought us here to see the world, so how could we choose? I can't thank you enough!"
Yun Ying's sweet words made Wang Li smile widely. He pointed at the stage and said, "Miss Yun, which one do you like today? I'll pay for it."
Yun Ying pulled Shi Yan to sit down, "Hey, Boss Wang is so generous?"
Wang Li couldn't help laughing, "It's my honor to spend money on beautiful women."
"But we've only met once."
"Miss Yun and I were destined to meet in our past life, and it's a shame we only met too late in this life."
Yun Ying couldn't help but secretly put out her cigarette and muttered quietly, "You see, all men are the same."
Shi Yan's attention was on the stage.
This is a small auction, and the items being auctioned are all top-quality.
The auction began. Shi Yan watched as the antiques and artworks were picked up one by one, and another work of Snow Mountain Girl was put on display again.
Shi Yan couldn't sit still anymore.
At that time, in order to record her trip to the snow-capped mountains, she specially painted several more representative story-telling paintings.
Later, all those paintings disappeared, and now they are circulating on the market again... Shi Yan clenched her fingers tightly.
Yun Ying, who was standing by, quickly noticed something was wrong and asked, "Is this painting yours too?"
The character in this painting is a cold man wearing sunglasses. He is tall, has long legs and an outstanding aura.
He had just successfully climbed up the snow-capped mountain, and the coolness emanating from his body almost merged with the mountain.
The snow mountain painting was published under the name of Luoshen. It became famous as soon as it appeared, and everyone had high respect for Luoshen.
Now that the magical painting has reappeared, the whole place is boiling with excitement because of the snow mountain painting.
Wang Li couldn't help but smile and looked at Shi Yan, "Miss Shi, now you have witnessed the influence of this painting, right?"
Shi Yan nodded, but her eyes were very indifferent.
Her paintings are currently being displayed in a cabinet on the stage under someone else's name.
Some people analyze the creative process of the painting, while others analyze the techniques and colors of the painting.
Some people are simple and rough, knowing that if someone steals something, it must be a good thing.
The auction signs kept going up, and the painting was about to break the five million mark.
This painting is Shi Yan's peak. After many years, she will not create such a representative painting again.
Shi Yan clenched her fingers and remained silent, but in her heart she wanted to rush onto the stage and tell everyone that she was the artist of this painting.
But Shiyan had no evidence.
Shi Yan seemed to have thought of something, and her face turned as pale as paper.
"Are you feeling unwell? Shall we go first?"
Shi Yan shook her head and decided to hold on to the end.
There are three paintings of snow-capped mountains in total. Two of them are now above the water, and the other one will definitely be here soon.
The person behind him must be unable to sit still.
The auction ended and the painting was bought by a foreign businessman.
Yun Ying looked anxious and went over to ask Wang Li, "Why didn't Boss Wang auction that painting?"
"I'm sorry, Miss Yun, I don't have permission to take pictures of that painting."
He patted the chair he was sitting on and said, "Sitting here, we can only take pictures of antiques from the Qing Dynasty and artworks from home and abroad, but not paintings."
Wang Li rubbed his chin in bewilderment. "This owner must be very particular about paintings, to have to classify them into different grades."
"What should I do then? Just watch the painting fall into the hands of others?"
Shi Yan gradually came to her senses and looked at Wang Li, "Boss Wang, I may need your help."
"Miss Shi, you said that I, Wang, will not show any mercy if I can do it."
"I want to see the auction surveillance."
Wang Li almost asked, "Are you crazy or am I crazy?" There is someone behind this auction, a big shot that none of them can afford to offend.
The fact that items can be openly classified into different grades at an auction shows that there is something extraordinary going on behind the scenes of the auction.
Wang Li stroked his chin and thought, "Ms. Shi, your question..."
Yun Ying suddenly leaned over and blinked at Wang Li. "With Boss Wang's ability, I think this little thing can definitely be done. Boss Wang, can you think of another way?"
The beauty came closer to him, and Wang Li was completely captivated by Yun Ying's beauty.
Yun Ying is pretty and sweet-mouthed, and she can seduce people. Wang Li wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said with a smile, "I, I'll think of a way!"
The two men watched him get up and leave. Shi Yan frowned and looked around vigilantly, but did not notice any familiar faces.
"Don't worry. Stealing other people's paintings will bring you punishment from God sooner or later."
Yun Ying cursed while Shi Yan pinched her fingers to force herself to calm down. Yun Ying was shocked to find that her lips were pale. "Shi Yan, are you okay?"
Shi Yan closed her eyes, her head spinning, "Yun Ying, I remembered something."
Shi Yan was in so much pain, with screams and the whistling cold wind in her ears, "No, don't."
"Shiyan, Yanyan?"
Those painful memories slowly devoured Shi Yan. Shi Yan felt a sharp pain in her head and her vision instantly fell into darkness.
When Shi Yan woke up again, she was in the hospital.
Seeing her wake up, Yun Ying quickly poured her a glass of water and said, "You finally woke up. You scared me to death."
"Why did I faint? Where's the surveillance?"
Shi Yan suddenly grabbed Yun Ying's wrist. Yun Ying frowned and comforted her, "Don't worry, Wang Li will take care of this matter. He will definitely help you get the surveillance."
"He's more eager to know who Luo Shen is than you are. This is a joke in the industry, and it's a good time to seize business opportunities."
Shi Yan's lips were cracked, so she closed her eyes and rested for a while.
That memory of the snowy mountains was the experience Shi Yan least wanted to remember.
"Oh, by the way, Song Yuchen will be here soon."
"You, how did you tell him?"
Yun Ying shook the phone, "Please, he's your husband. Who else can I call if not him? Besides, it wasn't me who called him. He was the one calling you, and I can't lie."
As soon as Yun Ying finished speaking, Song Yuchen pushed open the door of the ward and came in.
