Chapter 15 Discover the cause of Mr. Su’s death?

Mr. Su was a little uncomfortable with the smell of Jiang Xinyan's perfume. He raised his hand calmly, and the secretary beside him immediately stepped forward to take it.

"Grandpa Su, I know you like painting! This is a painting I specially requested from Master Abel of Country M. I heard that this oil painting is the result of Master Abel's one year of hard work. Please accept it."

Old Master Su became interested and said, "Open it and take a look."

The secretary quickly opened the painting, which showed a beautiful spring scene with lush and vibrant trees growing full of life.

"The emotion is well expressed, but I don't really appreciate oil paintings. Secretary Lin, I'll give you this painting."

When Old Master Su said something very disrespectful, Jiang Xinyan's face turned green. She spent 5 million, which was the money her parents could earn by raising pigs for a year! And she just gave it to her secretary like that?!

But she pretended well, not showing any unhappiness in her heart. "I heard that Xiaoman also prepared a painting for Grandpa Su. Why not take it out for everyone to appreciate and see if it can catch Grandpa Su's eye."

Ke Liman looked at Jiang Xinyan's expression of anticipation and tried to curl the corners of her mouth slightly.

It was the same painting, but the one I gave myself was the real one, while the one I gave her was a fake.

Jiang Xinyan didn’t do this at her birthday party in her previous life. It seems she is really anxious!

Old Master Su raised his eyes and looked at Ke Liman. She was indeed well-behaved and her clothes made people feel comfortable at first glance. She was much better than Jiang Xinyan.

He was rather curious about what kind of good paintings the person his unromantic grandson liked could produce.

Ke Liman smiled knowingly and presented the gift box with both hands.

"Mr. Su, I don't have enough money to buy you a gift like others would. This is a Chinese painting I made myself. Please give me some advice."

Ke Liman behaved in a graceful and elegant manner, unlike Jiang Xinyan who pretended to be intimate. She had the demeanor of a lady from a wealthy family. For a moment, there were murmurs around discussing whose daughter this was.

"Open it and have a look."

When the secretary opened Ke Liman's painting, Old Master Su straightened up instantly, his pupils flashing with shock.

"Hey, did you draw this?"

The majestic landscape comes into view, with rich colors and ink, and the brushstrokes are sometimes wantonly and sometimes carefully embellished, creating a clear and elegant artistic conception, yet full of vitality.

Ke Liman leaned forward humbly, "I know that you like calligraphy and Chinese painting. I wonder if this painting will be appreciated by you, who is well versed in Chinese painting."

"Secretary Lin, please accept the painting! Ms. Ke, please come sit next to me!"

The uncontrollable surprise in Mr. Su's eyes proved everything. In these years, there are very few people who can paint Chinese paintings, and there are almost no people who are so proficient in painting skills!

Jiang Xinyan was so angry when she heard the praise from Master Su that she said, "Impossible! Ke Liman, this is not what you wanted to give me! This cannot be drawn by you, you must have stolen it from somewhere! Clearly this morning..."

"Are you talking about this one, Mr. Jiang?"

Ke Liman immediately picked up another painting behind him and opened it. Everyone gathered around to take a look.

"Hey, isn't this the same painting as Miss Jiang's?"

"Yeah, but I feel like the color is a little off, like... fake?"

Ke Liman gave Butler Bai a look, and Butler Bai immediately pressed the remote control. The big screen instantly popped up the scene of Ke Liman and Jiang Xinyan in the hospital corridor, and the conversation was played back in detail.

The faces of the people present changed instantly.

"This Miss Jiang is so scheming! Fortunately, Miss Ke prepared a gift in advance, otherwise she would have been laughed at!"

Old Master Su narrowed his eyes and suddenly had a different opinion of Ke Liman. He never expected that the weak little girl a few years ago would become so brave and resourceful now.

Jiang Xinyan's face turned pale. She didn't expect that she would be set up for trouble. She looked at Su Zhe'an and said, "Brother Zhe'an, it's not like that."

Su Zhe'an had a complicated expression. The video just now kept impacting his mind. He felt that the woman in front of him suddenly became a little strange. He pried open Jiang Xinyan's tightly clenched hands, then turned and left.

He needs to calm down.

"Zhe'an!"

Jiang Xinyan's tears instantly burst out and she hurriedly chased after him.

Mr. Su hated fakes the most in his life, let alone using fakes to frame others. Now, the impression of Jiang Xinyan in his mind was extremely bad!

"Today is Grandpa's birthday banquet, so we won't talk about these unhappy things. We have arranged performances and snacks for everyone, so you can enjoy them to your heart's content."

Su Gu Huai came out at the right time to interrupt the farce, and the guests soon dispersed. Old Master Su felt that Su Gu Huai's eyes were always on Ke Liman, and he understood what was going on.

"Gu Huai, sit down."

Mr. Su's eyes returned to the painting in Secretary Lin's hand. He admired it again and again, clapped his hands in praise and asked, "I wonder which university Miss Ke wants to apply to?"

"My current goal is to study Chinese painting at the A City Art Institute."

"I know this academy, it's the top art academy in the country, but why do you like Chinese painting?"

"In recent years, we have been promoting how we should learn from foreign countries. There are fewer and fewer people who can inherit our culture. I don't want our culture to be buried. I want to be that disseminator."

Grandpa Su was very satisfied with what Ke Liman said, and laughed out loud, "Hahaha, you have great ambition! I really like your paintings. I'll study them for a few years. I hope you can surprise me after you graduate from university."

Su Gu Huai seemed to have never seen Old Master Su smile so happily. He looked at Ke Liman with admiration. Ke Liman smiled slightly, but she was thinking about how to investigate Old Master Su's accident. With Old Master Su's help, wouldn't it be easier for her to cancel the engagement?

After chatting with Mr. Su for a few more sentences, someone else came over to discuss business, so Ke Liman left.

While Old Man Su had no time to notice him, Su Gu Huai followed Ke Liman and left.

Ke Liman took a drink and leaned against the balcony railing boredly. She wondered why it was so quiet today. It turned out that the noisy woman Shen Baiying was entertaining guests in the front hall and did not show up.

"Does the wound still hurt?"

Su Guhuai's expression was as bright as glass. He hadn't seen the person he missed day and night for several days.

Ke Liman smiled and said, "It hurts, but it's much better now. I just don't know if it will leave scars."

Su Guhuai's slender fingers gently stroked the scarf around Ke Liman's neck, his Adam's apple moving slightly, "I will find the best doctor for you, and there will be no scars."

Ke Liman didn't wear any makeup today, only a light lip gloss. The wind blew through her hair, and a few strands of hair instantly stuck to her lips.

Su Guhuai's fingers moved from the scarf to Ke Liman's lips in an instant, and Ke Liman subconsciously tried to hide.

"Don't move."

The pleasant and deep voice made Ke Liman pause for a moment. She stared at Su Gu Huai's handsome face so close to her with her big eyes, and felt her heart skip a beat.

While Ke Liman was in a daze, Su Gu Huai had already pulled the phone out of her hand and asked, "Is it useful?"

"Uh, huh? It's really useful..."

Ke Liman came to his senses and nodded stupidly.

Oh my god! She was just impressed by the boss! Don’t let anyone see it! The boss doesn’t like women!

"The code is unlocked."

Ke Liman hurriedly took the phone, but she suddenly became a little flustered. She tried to unlock it several times but failed. When she heard a chuckle from above her head, her face turned red instantly.

After the secret was finally solved, Ke Liman was handed over to Su Guhuai as if he had been pardoned.

Su Guhuai took it, typed a string of numbers on the screen with his bony fingers, added WeChat, and then put himself at the top.

"If anyone bullies you in the future, feel free to call me."

Ke Liman took the phone and saw that Su Guhuai's profile picture was actually a photo of the company, and her lips twitched.

He is indeed a workaholic.

In the dim light, Ke Li suddenly caught a glimpse of Su Guoyi downstairs, and suddenly realized that he had not appeared for the whole morning. At this moment, he was looking around furtively.

"Thank you, brother. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

Ke Liman quickly waved to Su Guhuai, turned around and ran downstairs.

Su Gu Huai lowered his head to look at the faint pink on his fingers, then raised his eyes again, his gaze even more determined.

How could a person be willing to let go once he has tasted the sweetness? This time, no one is allowed to interfere with his decision.

Ke Li ran very fast and stopped only when she saw Su Guoyi. She breathed heavily and softly, while Su Guoyi sneaked into Old Man Su's study.
