Chapter 1417 It's Fixed!
Su Yunxi's expression changed.
Could it be that Jiang Biyun had discovered something?
Chen Xuan said calmly, "I saw Ge Guozhi and the Ge family's butler. I only said a few words, and they left."
Evidently, Jiang Biyun didn't think much of it, "That's good, that's good. We've just settled in the provincial capital, so we absolutely must not provoke the Ge family. You must know that even the Su family in the capital is powerless against the Ge family right now."
"I know. As long as they don't provoke me, I will definitely not provoke them."
Chen Xuan thought to himself that he hadn't said anything wrong.
It was a pity, however, that they had already provoked him, so he could only send them to see King Yama.
Seeing Chen Xuan's calm expression, Su Yunxi thought this guy was truly shameless when he lied.
After breakfast, Su Yunxi went to work, while Jiang Biyun, having gotten along well with the ladies in the villa area, went shopping with them. Chen Xuan, on the other hand, became a man of leisure.
Shortly after, Chen Xuan received a call from Wei Linlin.
"Linlin, what's up?"
"Chen Xuan, have you heard? Something big has happened!"
"What big thing?"
Chen Xuan asked knowingly.
"Ge Feipeng's father and that very ferocious butler from the Ge family have been killed."
Wei Linlin was ecstatic.
She knew that Ge Feipeng's death might be related to Chen Xuan. Now that Ge Feipeng and the Ge family's butler were dead, no one would seek revenge on Chen Xuan.
"How do you know?"
"This matter has even reached the Yanhuang Iron Brigade. This case is now under my dad's jurisdiction. I just heard my dad talking with someone from the Ge family."
Wei Linlin said with a giggle.
The Ge family of the capital, one of the Nine Gates of the capital, had three people die in succession, which sent shockwaves through the entire Ge family. If the murderer wasn't found, wouldn't the Ge family lose face?
Therefore, the Ge family of the capital found the Yanhuang Iron Brigade and asked them to investigate the case. The two parties were in the middle of a conversation when Wei Linlin happened to overhear it.
"That's truly good news. The Ge family are all wicked people and deserved to die," Chen Xuan said with a faint smile.
"By the way, Chen Xuan, there's one more thing I need to tell you."
"What is it?"
"That painting was given to Tian Shijie for restoration. Tian Shijie said he met a big buyer who said it could be sold for a high price, and asked us to go negotiate. Should we go?"
Wei Linlin said coyly.
Chen Xuan clearly heard that Wei Linlin was tempted. He smiled and said, "Alright, let's go take a look."
"Great!"
Wei Linlin couldn't help but cheer, almost shouting that she was going to be a rich woman!
Chen Xuan smiled slightly.
Then, Chen Xuan drove to the Wei family's house and stopped abruptly in front of the Wei family's gate!
However, as soon as he stopped, a figure jumped out, pointing at Chen Xuan's car and shouting, "Who is this brat who dares to trick my daughter into going out and messing around? Get out quickly!"
A moment later, Chen Xuan got out of the car and said, "Uncle Wei, have I done something wrong?"
"Ah? Chen Xuan? Why is it you?"
Yes, this person was none other than Wei Changgeng!
"If it's not me, who else would it be?" Chen Xuan replied.
Wei Linlin also ran over, giggling, "Yes, Dad, I just invited Chen Xuan. We're going to make a lot of money. Who did you think it was?"
"I..."
Wei Changgeng was instantly speechless.
Just now, he had heard Wei Linlin on the phone and thought she was dating. At Wei Linlin's age, she should be focusing on her studies, so how could she be in a relationship?
So, he quietly followed her. Seeing a car approaching, he immediately jumped out, but he never expected it to be Chen Xuan.
"Uncle Wei, Linlin and I have an appointment to go to an antique shop. You don't object, do you?"
Chen Xuan said with a smile.
Wei Linlin put her hands on her hips and puffed out her chest, looking defiant.
"I..."
What else could Wei Changgeng say?
"My dad has already agreed. Let's go quickly."
Wei Linlin giggled and grabbed Chen Xuan's arm. Chen Xuan was now her golden ticket, and Wei Changgeng didn't dare to stop them.
"Dad, you go back. Chen Xuan and I are going to make a fortune!"
Wei Linlin jumped into the car, waved goodbye to Wei Changgeng, and Chen Xuan started the engine and drove away!
Wei Changgeng watched the departing car, his thoughts unknown.
...
Driving, Chen Xuan followed the address Wei Linlin had given him and soon arrived at the entrance of an antique shop.
This antique shop was very simple, with a small and dilapidated storefront, but luxury cars were parked outside. It was clear that this antique shop was not ordinary. Upon entering, he discovered that it wasn't an antique shop at all, but a shop specializing in antique restoration.
"Chen Xuan, it's this place. It seems Tian Shijie and the others have already arrived."
Wei Linlin looked at a green Lamborghini parked outside and immediately said to Chen Xuan.
"Then let's go in too."
Chen Xuan said faintly, and then he and Wei Linlin walked into the shop. As expected, they saw Tian Shijie and Lu Ling standing in front of a stranger old man, seemingly admiring something.
The item on the table seemed to have surprised them greatly, their eyes revealing deep interest.
"Shijie! Lingling!"
Wei Linlin called out.
At this moment, Tian Shijie and Lu Ling reacted and looked up. Upon seeing Chen Xuan and Wei Linlin, they greeted them warmly.
"Brother Chen Xuan!"
"Linlin, you've come at the perfect time!"
"Is there something wrong?"
Tian Shijie smiled and said, "The painting has just been restored. Come and take a look!"
"That's really great!"
Chen Xuan and Wei Linlin also walked over. The painting also made their eyes light up.
This was the painting Chen Xuan had taken down earlier. It was as thin as a cicada's wing and almost invisible at the time, but after restoration, it was extremely perfect, with no trace of repair visible.
"Fantastic!"
"This craftsmanship is simply divine."
Chen Xuan praised generously.
Tian Shijie smiled and pointed to the grey-haired old man in a Tang suit beside him, "We also have to thank Master Gao. If it weren't for Master Gao, this painting by Tang Bohu would probably have been completely ruined."
"Hello, Master Gao!"
"Greetings, Master Gao!"
Chen Xuan also quickly greeted him. This guy was truly a skilled and extraordinary person.
Unexpectedly, the grey-haired old man in the Tang suit said, "I'm only doing this for the painting's sake, and it has nothing to do with you. You don't need to thank me. The restoration fee is a total of 1.2 million yuan. Remember to transfer the money to my account."
"Uh..."
Chen Xuan's expression stiffened. He hadn't expected this Master Gao to have such a bad temper, and the restoration fee was outrageously expensive. He had asked for 1.2 million yuan right off the bat, and it had only been one night.
Others earned millions a year, but this guy earned millions a day!
"1.2 million? You're not kidding, are you?"
Wei Linlin, who hadn't earned any money yet, exclaimed when she heard the price.
Master Gao's expression changed. Before Master Gao could speak, Tian Shijie quickly pulled Wei Linlin aside and said, "This Master Gao is one of the top antique restorers in the capital. His restored antiques are almost undetectable, and he can protect the antiques to the greatest extent. If it were anyone else, this painting by Tang Bohu would have been completely ruined."
