The campus returned to calm, and as the end of the semester was approaching, most people in the dormitories began to spend time in the library.
Qin Baixue was miserable every day, but she still had to hold the book and recite from morning to night.
Sun Hongyan was training on the playground and had to change clothes almost three times a day. Zhang Sufen had always been a good student, so she continued to live her usual life, going between school and the antique street. Li Xiujun did the same, but she had more things to take care of.
Hospital, school, and home.
But the relationship between her and Gu Qingming still did not ease.
After class, Li Xiujun took books to the studio to help. Uncle Li San was still elusive. They had dug a new cemetery last time and now needed to give a detailed report and protection measures for the cultural relics. Therefore, the two senior brothers in the studio were very busy every day. Li Xiujun would go to help whenever she had time.
She has more experience than her two senior brothers, so more than half of this report was written by Li Xiujun.
She opened the door and heard the unsurprising roar from inside.
Li Xiang grabbed Xu Jian's hair and said, "You little bastard, I told you to save it, and you can't even do this."
"I'll tell the master to throw you out tomorrow. We don't have any room for a loser like you in our studio."
Xu Jian felt a sharp pain and howled, "It's because your writing is too rubbish. The machine must have been unable to read it, so they deleted it."
"Shut up." Li Xiang had too many things to do and was already annoyed.
Li Xiujun stood stiffly at the door and knocked awkwardly, "Two brothers, should we stop for a while?"
Li Xiang and Xu Jian saw Li Xiujun and quickly stopped what they were doing. They wiped their hair and grabbed their clothes. "Junior sister, you're here! Why didn't you tell us in advance?"
Li Xiujun blinked, pretending nothing had happened, and walked in. "I wrote a new report."
“It’s about cultural heritage protection.”
Li Xiang and Xu Jian's eyes lit up instantly, and they both said, "Junior sister is really amazing, she really should not be underestimated."
As the two of them were scrambling to look through the report, the phone in the studio suddenly rang. Li Xiujun walked over to answer it, "Hello."
A familiar voice erupted from the other side. When Li Xiujun heard him speak, she already knew who this person was.
He roared at Li Xiujun, "What's good about that? You're a bunch of unprofessional guys. It's all because of you that I've suffered heavy losses. You must compensate me. A sufficient amount."
"Otherwise I will have my lawyer sue you and I will not let you off easily."
Li Xiujun was not frightened by what the other party said. She calmly picked up the notebook and said, "I don't know what you mean."
The other party yelled at Li Xiujun, "Don't you want to take responsibility for your own mistakes?"
"The blue and white porcelain you appraised for me last time was fake. Now I'm exhibiting it. Do you know what a joke it is? You have to compensate me for my mental damages and the original price of the blue and white porcelain. Do you hear me?"
The old-fashioned telephone leaked sound, so Li Xiang and Xu Jian could hear the voice on the phone.
The two men stood up and walked over to grab the phone.
Li Xiang was not afraid of the other party's threats. "Please show us the evidence, otherwise we won't believe these empty words."
Xu Jian also said, "That's right. If you can't provide evidence, you are slandering our studio. Do you know the consequences?"
"I know nothing." The person on the other end left this sentence and hung up the phone cursing.
The three people in the room gradually fell silent. Li Xiujun crossed her arms and said, "That person won't give up easily. We have to be on our guard."
Li Xiang rubbed his nose and said, "Tell this to the Third Master."
Xu Jian shook his head. "This is something we three did. It has nothing to do with Third Master. If compensation is really required, we will have to bear it ourselves."
"But that blue and white porcelain..." Li Xiang clearly remembered that the blue and white porcelain was real.
Li Xiujun stood up alone and said, "This matter should be attributed to me. I didn't listen to what the two brothers said at the time and stopped checking the truth according to what that person said."
"But regarding this matter," Li Xiujun said calmly, "we don't need to rush."
"What do you mean?" Li Xiang and Xu Jian heard what Li Xiujun said, and it seemed that there was a solution.
Li Xiujun rummaged through boxes and drawers until she found a video recorder. She tapped it lightly with her fingernail. "Could it be that the two brothers have forgotten our previous recording?"
Li Xiang and Xu Jian suddenly realized and changed their previous sorrow.
They continued to organize the report, but at this moment, the door was kicked open.
He was the owner of the courtyard. Not only did he bring blue and white porcelain, he was also followed by a group of media.
He started cursing and complaining to the media, "Did you see that? This is the face of these students. They're relying on Mr. Li's reputation and are now bullying us ordinary people!"
"I'm telling you, my family has been from the old imperial capital for generations, and we know a lot of people! If you dare to lie to me today, I will definitely make trouble for you."
Li Xiujun and the other two were not frightened by what he said. Instead, they felt sorry for the adults who were hit by this dirty thing for no reason.
After the owner of the yard gave his statement, the reporters behind him picked up their cameras.
They asked intensively, "Could you please explain to us why the blue and white porcelain is fake? Why did you deceive this big brother?"
"And there's a contract as proof." The owner of the courtyard took out the contract and slammed it on the table in the studio. "As professionals, you can't even tell the real from the fake. What's so great about you?"
"Anyway, I'm going to pay you triple the compensation today, otherwise this matter won't be over so easily."
"Please explain to us." The reporter handed over the microphone.
After this group of people spoke intensively, Li Xiujun and others finally had the opportunity to speak.
She held out her hand, "Please give me your blue and white porcelain so we can re-identify it for you."
"Who knows what you are going to do?" The owner of the yard resisted instinctively.
Li Xiujun tilted her head and smiled, "With so many cameras, what do you think we can do?"
He cursed under his breath, but finally handed the item over reluctantly, "This is fake, 100% fake."
Li Xiujun and the other two examined it with a magnifying glass and said, "This thing is indeed fake. This gentleman is right."
The owner of the courtyard instantly gained the upper hand and snatched the blue and white porcelain back. "Do you see it now? Even they themselves admitted it."
"But when we were digging up the blue and white porcelain that day, they didn't say a word. What's going on?"
