Ji Jin was slow to accept the trophy. The people around him looked over, and the people in the audience also stretched their necks to look at the stage.
And started discussing it.
"Indeed, no one can escape Mr. Hill's face."
"It's a shame I didn't win the championship this year. I have to admit, Ji Jin's work is truly superior. Even if I can't compare, I accept it."
Chen Xiao couldn't see the face of the person presenting the award.
The main reason is that when the award presenter goes on stage, his back is facing the audience.
Nor had she any knowledge of their discussion of Mr. Hill.
Just looking at Ji Jin's condition, she doesn't seem to be bewildered by her beauty.
More like seeing a ghost.
…
The organizers knew this very well. After all, it was Mr. Hill's idea to change the award ceremony to Country F.
He invested a lot of money, but he still insisted on being the award presenter for the championship, which shows it.
"Teacher Ji, please accept the trophy first. If you have anything to say, please wait until the process is finished and then speak from the audience."
Ji Jin came back to his senses after being touched by the runner-up girl next to him.
The girl was also stunned just now, and only came back to her senses after being reminded by the host.
But Ji Jin was obviously still in a daze, so she reminded him.
But for some reason, I felt that the peripheral vision of Mr. Hill was cold.
It was also oppressive, and she didn't dare look at him again.
Ji Jin came back to his senses, took the trophy and said thank you.
"You're welcome."
He didn't speak Chinese, and his voice was more mellow than Huo Qinghuai's.
With a country F accent, he speaks very pleasant French.
Just two words are enough to touch people's hearts.
"Mr. Hill said 㱕 means thank you." The host helped translate, thinking that Ji Jin didn't understand.
But Ji Jin and Huo Qinghuai have known each other for so many years. When he was learning languages as a child, she was by his side.
Simple and easy to understand.
It was at this time that she noticed.
This person is called Hill, and although he looks like Huo Qinghuai, his bones are more prominent and his eyebrows and eyes are deeper.
Typical Westerner.
And a pair of eyes as cold as emeralds.
Although her hair is not black, it is slightly curly.
It was different from Huo Qinghuai's black hair which was always meticulously groomed.
"I'm sorry, I was so presumptuous."
Mr. Hill was surprised. "You can speak French?"
"A little bit."
The host started the process.
The audience couldn't hear what they were saying.
But the people on the stage had already noticed something was wrong.
After Ji Jin stepped down, Chen Xiao quickly pulled her aside and asked, "What's going on?"
Before Ji Jin could say anything, he was approached by a ten-foot-tall bodyguard.
"Our gentleman would like to discuss the sale of his artwork with you."
Mr. Hill does look like he's rich.
Moreover, the organizers were very polite to him.
"Let's go."
On the way to the lounge, Chen Xiao whispered to her:
"I just asked, this Mr. Hill is the head of the Hill family, the largest family in the world. His wealth is immeasurable, and his power is unparalleled."
Ji Jin pays close attention to foreign figures.
Most of them are people in the photography circle.
She had only heard of these wealthy families when they came to her to buy photos and offered very attractive prices.
However, after hearing about it, we will not have an in-depth discussion.
"Then we can make a good profit."
Chen Xiao also felt happy to be able to make money.
Until she saw Mr. Hill's appearance.
"Huo, Huo Qinghuai?!"
Ji Jin patted her and said, "Look carefully."
Fortunately, these people don’t understand Chinese, but there is a translator!
Only then did Chen Xiao take a closer look.
Found something different.
"This is too similar." She whispered to Ji Jin, "You were also in a trance on the stage just now, right?"
Ji Jin was in a trance.
Because she felt in her heart that someone as powerful as Huo Qinghuai would not die.
That's why she was so shocked when she saw Hill.
Even now, he knew that there were differences between him and Huo Qinghuai, but he still had a vague feeling that it was Huo Qinghuai's disguise.
Considering his past, it is not difficult for him to change his identity.
"Mr. Hill, what is your price for my work?"
The man seemed surprised by her directness and smiled.
"Miss Ji, whatever you want, I can afford it."
Chen Xiao didn't understand French, and the translator saw that they were communicating smoothly, so he didn't interrupt them.
She was stunned and looked between the two of them. There seemed to be pink bubbles.
As an aside, Mr. Hill is really handsome.
She is even more charming when she smiles.
It would be better if he didn’t look so much like Huo Qinghuai.
"I won't ask for too much either," Ji Jin said. "Just give me a normal price."
"I can offer you ten times the normal price, but there's a condition."
"I don't accept it." Ji Jin refused bluntly, "Just make a normal offer. If you're serious about buying, then I'm serious about selling. If you're after something else, I won't have trouble finding a buyer for this work."
The man chuckled, "I'm afraid no one in Country F can outbid me, and no one can snatch something from me."
Ji Jin said calmly, "My works are also very popular in China."
Something flashed in the man's green eyes, and finally he raised his hand and asked his special assistant to handle it.
Soon, the money arrived.
As a result, bank transfers do not restrict wealthy people.
"Don't bother Mr. Hill anymore." Ji Jin confirmed the payment and pulled Chen Xiao away.
When he returned to the hotel, Chen Xiao was still a little confused.
"I think apart from his eye color and hair, he really looks like Huo Qinghuai. Especially when he looks at you, there is affection in his eyes, and he seems to be determined to win you."
Ji Jin didn't think she was so stunningly beautiful that anyone would fall in love with her at first sight.
Especially, he looks so much like Huo Qinghuai.
But she also felt that Huo Qinghuai would not be so careless in doing things.
After all, she was fooled by him every time.
"They say foreign men like smaller and cuter Chinese women, and it seems they're right now."
Chen Xiao analyzed, "Besides, he likes your work so much. There are many examples of people liking their works."
"What a pity! It would be better if he didn't look like Huo Qinghuai."
Ji Jin didn't plan to think about it anymore.
She packed her bags and prepared to return home.
I miss my sister and my little nephew.
"Let's go buy some gifts for my little nephew."
"Oh, I remember there's a store that sells some unique things. Let's go check it out."
Ji Jin didn't expect that in such a big country, there would be only a small shop.
Meet Hill again.
Because of his arrival, all the other people in the store were cleared out.
Ji Jin hadn't had time to look at it yet, but he was no longer in the mood and was ready to leave and look somewhere else.
The bodyguards blocked the door.
Ji Jin was angry.
"What on earth are you going to do!" She deliberately spoke in Chinese.
She didn't see him bringing the translator.
Apart from his bodyguards, he was alone.
"What did you say?" Hill asked her in French. "Sorry, my Chinese is not good."
"I just admire your work and want to be your friend so that you can give me priority in selling your work in the future."
