After obtaining the two fans, Alex was certain that the items in the man's possession were valuable.
And so, the desire for the last thing grew even stronger.
That day, he suggested meeting with the owner of the item to discuss the price in person.
After considering it for a moment, Xiao Feng agreed.
The so-called masters are him and Fu Xiaolian. He will have Fu Xiaolian cooperate with him to put on a show, and everything will be believable.
As for the price and conditions, isn't it still up to Xiao Feng to decide?
The two parties agreed to meet the next day at Tingshan Tea Garden by Daming Lake. They would bring the painting and negotiate the terms with the foreigner in one go, which would then be considered a great success.
Now that they know how valuable the item is, Xiao Feng and Fu Xiaolian aren't stupid; they know it must be an extraordinary treasure, otherwise the foreigners wouldn't have offered such a high price.
I'm really not comfortable keeping something so valuable in my own hands. Most importantly, he stole it, and if he gets caught, his crime will definitely be serious.
Therefore, they were eager to make a move. Once the matter was in the hands of foreigners, it would be almost impossible to find out the truth.
The next day, he had Fu Xiaolian dress up nicely, pretending to be a wealthy woman. Then the two of them split up, one going to wait at Tingshan Tea Garden and the other going to pick up Alex and his group.
As it turned out, Alex was indeed very interested in the painting when they arrived at the tea garden. However, to Xiao Feng's surprise, he seemed to be more interested in Fu Xiaolian in front of him.
He made advances on Xiaolian right in front of him.
All of this was witnessed by Xiao Feng, who almost exploded on the spot and was about to break off relations with Alex.
However, Alex came with bodyguards. Those two bear-like creatures, though nothing in Jiao Bai's hands, were like gods in front of Xiao Feng. He couldn't even twist one of their little arms.
Besides, it was he who told Alex that he and the seller were friends.
Since they're just friends, what reason does he have to stop them from doing this?
Xiao Feng himself had no way of expressing his suffering.
If that were all, it would be fine, but who knew that Fu Xiaolian, the woman he valued so much, didn't show the slightest resistance and let Alex do whatever he wanted to her.
This made Xiao Feng, who had always regarded Fu Xiaolian as a forbidden woman, hate both of them.
It wasn't just because of Alex's shamelessness, but also because of Fu Xiaolian's betrayal.
Yes, in Xiao Feng's eyes, this was a blatant betrayal right in front of him.
After everyone left the teahouse, Xiao Feng couldn't hold back any longer and smashed a cup. He decided to go home first and settle accounts with Fu Xiaolian.
But he didn't know that all of this was being observed by Jiao Bai, who was hiding in the willow tree outside.
When he got home, Fu Xiaolian had already returned.
She was sitting at the vanity counter, carefully touching up her makeup. A happy smile graced her face, and she was humming an unknown tune, looking extremely pleased.
Now they have over 100,000 US dollars, and their lives are completely different from before.
Although cosmetics were scarce in this era, Fu Xiaolian's dressing table was still filled with all sorts of cosmetics, most of which were expensive foreign products.
The large wardrobe next to it was filled with brightly colored women's clothing, none of which were of poor quality.
When Xiao Feng returned home and saw Fu Xiaolian like this, he felt even more displeased.
He sat silently on the sofa in the living room and slammed the dinner he had bought onto the table.
Although he was angry with Fu Xiaolian, he still made sure to bring her a roast chicken and two kinds of braised dishes on his way back.
Neither of them is very good at cooking; they usually can't even eat what they're made for themselves. They only cook occasionally when they have absolutely no other choice, and whenever they have a little money, they buy food from outside.
Hearing the noise outside, Fu Xiaolian stopped what she was doing, put down her eyebrow pencil, and walked out with a swaying gait.
When she saw Xiao Feng sitting on the sofa with a sullen face, seemingly sulking, she immediately understood seven or eight parts of the situation.
However, she didn't take it to heart and walked up with a smile, pretending that she knew nothing.
"Hey, you rascal, what's wrong? Who upset you?"
Xiao Feng ignored her, snorted, and turned his head away.
Undeterred by the rebuff, Fu Xiaolian opened the roast chicken and side dishes that Xiao Feng had bought and placed them on the table.
"Why are you so angry? Life is so good these days. I'll have a couple of drinks with you later to cheer you up."
Xiao Feng remained silent. This man in his thirties acted like a stubborn child who had been wronged but didn't want to say anything, turning his head away and ignoring her.
Fu Xiaolian covered her mouth and laughed.
"What's wrong with you? You're really getting angry. What's the point of all this?"
As she spoke, she actually wiggled her hips and went to the kitchen, returning with two cups and two pairs of chopsticks. She was also carrying a half-empty bottle of baijiu (Chinese liquor).
She sat down next to Xiao Feng, poured a glass for each of them, and then gently touched her glass to Xiao Feng's.
"Come on, I'll do one with you. Tell me what's on your mind, don't keep it all bottled up inside."
Xiao Feng stared at her, glanced back at her, said nothing, picked up his wine glass and drank it all in one gulp, slammed the glass down on the table, and continued to turn his head away, ignoring her.
Fu Xiaolian didn't mind, took a sip of her own wine, and poured another glass for Xiao Feng.
And so, Xiao Feng downed three glasses without saying a word before the alcohol hit him hard, and his face turned a liverish color.
"Xiao Lian, I'm asking you, what do you mean by this today?"
Finally, Xiao Feng could no longer hold back and asked what was on his mind.
"Huh? What do you mean? What are you talking about?"
Fu Xiaolian pretended to be confused and put her wine glass on the table, asking a question in return.
This made Xiao Feng angry, and he smashed the wine glass on the table on the ground again.
"Don't play dumb. I'm asking you, when that foreigner touched you like that, why didn't you resist?"
Even Xiao Feng, a grown man, was too embarrassed to describe such a shameful scene in words.
It would have been better if he hadn't gotten angry, but seeing him smash cups and bowls, Fu Xiaolian was already prepared.
He suddenly stood up as well.
With one hand on her hip and the other pointing at Xiao Feng, she began to hurl insults.
"You spineless man, how dare you talk to me like that? That foreigner had two bodyguards with him, would I dare to fight back? Let me ask you, you're a grown man, someone was touching your wife right in front of you, and you didn't even dare to fart. Are you even a man? And you still have the nerve to come home and yell at me? If I were you, I would have smashed my head against a wall and died long ago. How could I have the face to go home?"
"Pah! You coward! I've been putting up with this all for your own good. If I didn't let him touch me, would we even have a future together? You've tolerated it all, so why can't I?"
Xiao Feng was bombarded by this woman like a machine gun, leaving him dizzy and stunned on the spot.
You fucking bastard, what you said makes sense, but something just doesn't feel right.
