"Don't mention him yet. Let's take this treasure to Grandpa's house first!"
Mr. Zhong carefully put away the scroll, not daring to slack off in the slightest.
Although Su Xin didn't understand these things, she followed the rules and quickly put away the scroll before heading straight to the inner room.
At the same time, Hu Yuan was preparing to go home when he discovered that someone seemed to be watching him secretly.
Hu Yuan didn't pay any attention, he just glanced at them.
Then they prepared to get into the car and leave.
"It looks like some paparazzi."
Hu Yuan drove away and left Hu's hometown not long after.
However, he discovered that the paparazzi showed no signs of leaving and seemed to be following him.
"It seems these people are determined to stick with me no matter what!"
Without thinking twice, Hu Yuan stepped on the gas.
An hour later, at Hu Yuan's house.
Just as Hu Yuan was about to get out of the car, he noticed that several people who looked like reporters were gradually walking towards him.
"Mr. Hu, I heard that you recently purchased Wen Zhengming's 'Humble Administrator's Garden Map' for 100 yuan. Is that true?"
Hu Yuan was speechless. He hadn't expected these people to be so resourceful that they even knew about this matter.
"That's right, this painting was a real steal at the antique market. Is there anything I can help you with?"
Upon hearing this, the reporter immediately handed over an invitation.
"It's like this, we're from the 'Treasures of the World' program. We've heard that Mr. Hu has a discerning eye for quality, so we'd like to invite you to participate in the program to help our antique collecting community distinguish the genuine from the fake!"
Hu Yuan sized up the reporters; they didn't seem like scammers.
"Let's talk about this later. I'm a bit tired right now. Excuse me!"
Hu Yuan then ran to the gate and slammed it shut.
The reporters, realizing they had made a fool of themselves, dispersed.
"You're back!"
Wang Man's gentle words made Hu Yuan, who had been exhausted for some time, feel somewhat comfortable.
Home still feels better.
Hu Yuan lay on the sofa, reflecting on the events of the past few days.
Although he felt sorry for Old Master Ye, there was nothing he could do now.
But unexpectedly, the matter here was just resolved.
The paparazzi over there actually invited me to participate in an antique appraisal show.
"What's wrong?"
Wang Man slowly sat down next to Hu Yuan. Seeing Hu Yuan's sighing expression, she also felt something was amiss.
"It's nothing, someone just invited me to participate in an antique appraisal show. I haven't had time to spend with you guys lately!"
Hearing Hu Yuan say this, Wang Man was deeply moved.
Since Hu Yuan started his business again, his career has been thriving.
My life is getting better and better now.
"I think you can give it a try. I really like those bottles and jars, calligraphy and paintings."
Hearing Wang Man say that, Hu Yuan felt more confident.
"In that case, I'll give it a try. After this is over, I'll spend some quality time with you!"
Wang Man nodded, but didn't say anything more.
Suddenly, Wang Man turned her head and found Hu Yuan staring at her.
Moreover, the distance was quite close, which made Wang Man's heart race.
"you…"
Wang Man was speechless for a moment, and a blush rose on her face.
I love you, baby!
He then closed his eyes, about to kiss her.
A childish voice rang out from the side.
"ah!"
The two quickly took cover.
Wang Man then quickly ran over.
"What's wrong, Tuantuan?"
Tuantuan was completely bewildered as to what the two adults were doing.
However, she seemed to sense that the two adults were a little shy.
Why are you blushing?
Hu Yuan quickly drank a sip of cold water to ease the awkward expression on his face.
Wang Man, who was standing to the side, patted Tuan Tuan's head and said.
"It's nothing, Tuantuan."
Tuantuan said "Oh," and her bewildered look left Wang Man somewhat at a loss.
Then, Tuantuan went into the room alone.
Hu Yuan took the opportunity to look around, feeling that something was missing.
He just can't feel it right now.
The next day, Hu Yuan went to the TV station.
"Oh, Mr. Hu, you've finally arrived! We've been waiting for you for ages!"
The TV station director clearly valued Hu Yuan highly, as if Hu Yuan were the main character here.
"I didn't expect you to have waited for me for so long. Let's get on with the procedures!"
Upon seeing this, the TV station director quickly brought Hu Yuan into the recording studio.
Among the guests on the show were several master-level figures, but they were all elderly people in their twilight years.
Only Hu Yuan was full of vigor and stood among them, being one of the younger ones.
"I didn't expect this young man to be so knowledgeable about antiques. Could he have gotten in through connections?"
Everyone was discussing it animatedly, but no one could make up their mind. They wondered how Hu Yuan had been invited.
However, they didn't dare to say much, since this person was invited by the production team and probably had some connections.
After a while, Hu Yuan started chatting with the guests.
"We heard that Mr. Hu recently acquired a famous painting from the Ming Dynasty. We wonder who painted it? Could you tell us about it?"
Hu Yuan was a little surprised. He didn't expect that these old men would start keeping an eye on him and even know about this matter.
"This is just a trivial skill. It's not worth mentioning. As for this painting, it's Wen Zhengming's 'Humble Administrator's Garden Map' from the Ming Dynasty. I just happened to stumble upon it and got a great bargain; it was all luck."
