99th generation villain, the reborn queen is crazy about me

Han Ying and Luo Feng both have important matters to attend to in the imperial capital, so Luo Anyang will attend the banquet on behalf of the Luo family.

After the old housekeeper of the Jing family sorted out the gifts from the guests, he stood on the stage and began to speak in a set phrase and opening remarks...

In the bustling and lively banquet hall, all the friends sitting there stopped talking and listened respectfully... After a while, old man Jinghui walked out from the backstage in high spirits. The old man's temples had turned gray due to the weathering of time. His serene face, which had experienced many hardships, revealed hardships, while his deep eyes showed the wisdom of an open-minded life.

Standing next to Jing Hui were Jing Xin and Ruolan, and standing behind him were Ye Jianbai, Jing Xiyao and a group of Jing family members.

At this time, Ye Jianbai was muttering in a flattering manner in front of Jing Xiyao, but this woman gave him a big thumbs-up with disgust on her face, and quickly moved away from him... and stared at Luo Anyang in the corner with burning eyes.

"Haha, everyone is here? I really appreciate you guys giving me such an old man face."

"Hehe, Senior Jing, this is surprising. Men, women, young and old in Guzhou City all know how much you have contributed to this city and this society. Without you... our younger generation would not have such a high platform for development."

"What's more, you are still very young, Senior. Haven't you heard of that idiom, 回光... um, no, it's 老当壮不强!"

"Everyone said, isn't that right?"

Ye Jianbai spoke freely and politely, and everyone was stunned for a moment when he spoke. After a moment's silence, there was a sudden burst of warm applause. Everyone cheered and stood up to wish Jinghui a happy birthday in person.

Jinghui looked back at Ye Jianbai, stroking his goatee, with a hint of strong admiration in his eyes.

At first glance, this guy is pretty good, his tone is rigorous, he is polite, and his emotional intelligence is high... Xiyao is a carefree girl who doesn't understand the ways of the world, so they are really a good match~

Jinghui had a pretty good first impression of Ye Jianbai. He nodded appreciatively and signaled the butler to proceed to the next item.

This birthday party was not for himself, but for his granddaughter Jing Xiyao. He wanted to take this opportunity to see what kind of person Ye Jianbai was, and to introduce partners to Jing Xiyao's company and make more connections.

After a round of polite exchanges, Jing Xin brought out the gifts from backstage and wanted to personally express her gratitude to everyone who had given them the gifts.

"Thank you, niece Xia Xilin..."

"Thanks! @￥"

"Um...thank you to my nephew Luo Anyang for sending me a beautiful painting of Qi Heitu - Wanma Job Jumping, and a beautiful ceramic bowl from [Tang Dai]"

Just when Jing Xin wanted to continue reading, Ye Jianbai suddenly interrupted the atmosphere in a mean way. He raised his eyebrows and a strange smile appeared on his face, which was very sinister.

"Please wait a moment, Uncle Jing... It's not that I don't trust Young Master Luo, I just think that antiques like these should be verified to be authentic."

"Otherwise, if Senior Jing had a fake item hanging in his house and it was recognized... it would be unacceptable, wouldn't it?"

After hearing this, Luo Anyang's face was uncertain, his eyes flashed with coldness, his eyebrows were wrinkled like a bun, and he crossed his chest and asked coldly: "Ye Jianbai...if you want to find fault, just say it directly. Who in the whole Guzhou City doesn't know your character?"

"I am a very upright young master. I have all the receipts. It's two million... NT$10,000! Yes, how could a two million NT$ painting be fake?"

"Also, Mr. Jinghui... It's not that I, Luo Anyang, am petty, but Ye Jianbai is a scumbag... If you don't believe me, just ask anyone on the street. After he broke up Xilin and me, he shamelessly pursued Xiyao and even wanted to have the best of both worlds. How shameless!"

.....

After being exposed, Ye Jianbai was not angry, but quietly gestured to the back... Dozens of rich kids quickly understood and shouted unconvinced: "Ah, Luo Anyang, Goddess Xia divorced you because she was heartbroken by the scumbag, Master Ye just couldn't stand it!"

"How dare you speak ill of me? I think you are just jealous of our Master Ye's talent!"

...

Seeing that neither side was willing to give in, Jinghui didn't get angry. Instead, he stroked his beard with a smile, a shrewd look in his eyes.

How could he not see that Ye Jianbai was looking for someone to clear his name?

But this is also a means of social interaction...

It's a pity that Luo Anyang couldn't even think of this. He is so stupid. If others want to frame you... there are plenty of ways to do it. Poor Master Luo, he can only argue the facts. What's the use?

Diverting conflicts like Ye Jianbai did is the smartest way to do things.

But one thing is for sure, I need to get to know Ye Jianbai better... I must not let him down.

The wrinkles on Jinghui's forehead trembled slightly with the rhythm of the music. His eyes were as deep and calm as the abyss. After a long time, he smiled in a low voice and said, "It's good to be young. Seeing that my Xiyao has such excellent admirers, I would like to thank you all here."

"Since Mr. Ye has brought it up, I think it is... Of course, I think Young Master Luo's gift must have been carefully prepared."

"But what if something goes wrong?"

"Whether the gift is real or fake, I would like to thank Master Luo in advance. It just so happens that an old friend of mine specializes in antique research... Let him take a look at it for me today!"

After hearing Jinghui's words, the atmosphere instantly became much more lively. Seeing that there was something interesting, everyone shook their wine glasses with interest and whispered about gossip.

A short and fat old man with a shiny bald head and no hair suddenly walked up from the stage. After communicating with Jinghui and others, he stared at Luo Anyang with disdain, snorted coldly... and casually opened the scroll.

"Oh my god, it's Mr. Jia Chun! I didn't expect he's here too."

"Jia Chun? ....Are you talking about the Jia Chun who won the Antique Treasures Competition for ten consecutive years?"

"Yeah, there's probably no one here who's more familiar with these cultural relics from past dynasties than him. Luo Anyang is in trouble this time~" A group of onlookers stared straight ahead, lowered their heads, and gloated in a low voice...

Just as Jia Chun was checking carefully, two very small green poisonous insects suddenly crawled out from Luo Anyang's collar. "Yiya~" the little insects blinked their sesame-sized eyes in a very coordinated manner. They looked at each other, called "Yiya", and then quickly flew into Luo Anyang's painting.

Yan Zhier, who was controlling the scene at the side, was having fun. She closed her eyes tightly and waved her hand. One of the little bugs quickly flew into the interlayer of the painting and turned into a series of words that were printed on it.

Yan Zhier found a seal font from an ancient artifact on the Internet, and controlled another poisonous insect to fly to the bottom of the ceramic bowl and printed it on it again.

Jia Chun frowned and flipped through the painting for a long time. He stared at Luo Anyang with some confusion and scratched his head... He couldn't see how this looked like a high-quality imitation.

Ye Jianbai took the initiative to step forward and pointed at a raised area, and said with a smirk: "Senior Jia, there should be a layer in this painting... Feel around. The more high-end the imitation, the more likely it is to use these layers to fool people."

Following Ye Jianbai's words, he touched the inner layer with a touch. Jia Chun smiled happily and snorted, "Good boy... You bought a fake with great craftsmanship. I caught you~"

He twisted his mouth and tore open the interlayer, but the contents inside shocked him... His eyes changed from joy to dullness and finally to disbelief, and he stood there in a daze.

The audience was very surprised...

"Old Jia, is there something wrong?" Jinghui's curiosity was also aroused. He took the initiative to stand up and step down from the stage, took the painting and took a look at it.

But the interlayer part reads: [The ink painting on the wall, brushing away the dust for you. The spirit of the grass and trees emerges, and the momentum of the stream and mountains returns] five-character poem...

The mezzanine part depicts some fine horses and landscapes. The fine horses are very individual, each with its own unique features, and the lines are powerful and full of rhythm and rhyme.

The surrounding mountains and rivers show the wild horses' unfettered, fierce, strong and agile appearance vividly, giving people a sense of freedom and upward power.

Even though Jinghui was not well versed in antiques, he was still shocked by the painting. He stood there without saying a word, staring at it intently.

As Jia Chun was looking at the painting, he suddenly burst into tears. He half-knelt on the ground, hugged the painting and said with tears and snot: "Wow... Poor my old master, he always admired Master Heitu's paintings, but he never saw them before he died... This is the original! The original!"

"I am very sure that this is the work of Master Heitu. The horses he painted are in various poses, vivid and lifelike, and using interlayers is one of his quirks... Although the material of the canvas is not very good, I can be sure that this work is real!"

"Old man Jing...can you give it to me? Wuuuuu." Jia Chun was already old, but he cried like a child, looking at Jing Hui with a slightly pleading look.

Jing Hui was not in a position to distribute the gifts on the spot, so he just snorted slightly. He returned to his seat, looked at Luo Anyang, a hint of interest flashed in his eyes, and he smiled politely, motioning Jing Xin to continue.

Seeing this, everyone was shocked and speechless...

How could Luo Anyang be so lucky? Seeing him picking up a bargain is more painful than killing them.

Ye Jianbai also looked unhappy. He frowned and stared at Luo Anyang and Xia Xilin, glaring at them fiercely.

At this moment, Luo Anyang’s heart was just like the painting he bought - thousands of horses galloping...what the hell?

No, what is Jia Chun's level? He can't even tell that a laminated high-end imitation is real?

I see you, more like an expert in imitation!

Luo Anyang took his painting with full of doubts, his eyes widened and his scalp felt numb. This was not something he bought!

Who switched the package?

He secretly looked at Xia Xilin, but the other party seemed to have no idea.

......

Then, Jing Xin read out Ye Jianbai's gifts, which were a box of pills and a famous painting.

"Please wait a moment, Uncle Jing... It's not that I don't trust Master Ye, I just think that antiques like these should be verified to be authentic."

"Otherwise, if Senior Jing had a fake item hanging in his house and it was recognized... it would be unacceptable, wouldn't it?"

Luo Anyang read out Ye Jianbai's words verbatim. His cheeky expression made Jing Xiyao burst out laughing, and her two pairs of autumn-water eyes were filled with smiles.

Looking at Jing Xiyao's sweet smile, Ye Jianbai thought she was smiling at him, and he immediately gained confidence. He patted his chest proudly and said confidently: "Senior Jing, this box of pills of mine is extracted from rare medicinal materials that condense the essence of heaven and earth. It is called Stretching Legs and Staring Eyes Pills."

"One pill can nourish your kidneys, two pills can nourish your internal organs... this box can even extend your life."

Before Ye Jianbai finished speaking, Luo Anyang covered his belly and laughed, "Puchi...little boiled egg, I think you should eat one. Look at your dark eye sockets and sunken eye sockets. It's obvious that you have kidney deficiency for a short time...hahaha!"

Seeing everyone's snickers and disdainful glances, Ye Jianbai was so angry that his teeth itched. He suppressed his anger and pretended to be gentle and continued:

"That painting was something I stole overseas... No, it was an authentic masterpiece I bought overseas, and it's called the Divine Turtle!"

Everyone was stunned by his trick, and Jinghui's interest was also aroused. He signaled Jingxin to take a look at the quality of the pills and try out their efficacy.

Yan Zhier on the other side was playing with a small insect in her hand. Her two beautiful eyes were a faint purple-red under the sunlight. When she saw this scene at the Jing family, she rolled her big eyes around, suddenly grinned, and giggled.

"It's really fun, hehehe..."

She casually controlled a small insect to transform into a burst of light that quickly merged into the pill, and then controlled another small poisonous insect to fly into the painting.

Jing Xin stared at the big black pill and swallowed...Looking at Ye Jianbai's extremely confident smile, he swallowed it in one gulp.

After a few minutes, nothing unusual happened... He just felt that his body was much more relaxed, but there was a heat in his stomach again, and he couldn't tell what was wrong.

Then... Jing Xin spread the painting on the ground and took out the greeting card inside.

I read it out word by word:

[Hi, hi, hi, here I come... As the old man said: A good death is worse than a miserable life. This young master wishes that Mr. Jinghui will never see the light of day again...]

???

This sounds weird.

But then everyone took a fancy to the content of the painting... It would have been fine if they hadn't looked at it, but once they saw it, everyone was stunned.

This is a children's sketch of an old turtle swimming in the sea...and the turtle's face is exactly that of old man Jinghui himself!

Not only the host, but everyone present opened their eyes wide in astonishment. The whole dinner fell silent. Everyone looked at each other with their mouths opened into an O shape. Even the photographer who was recording the video stopped in amazement, wondering whether to continue recording or not.

Ye Jianbai is so bold to dare to make fun of the old man of the Jing family like this!

"You!" Jing Xin pointed at Ye Jianbai and was about to get angry, but he found that his abdomen was twitching, and then he felt his stomach churning, and the pain made cold sweat on his forehead...

What followed was a tightening and twitching in his stomach, causing him to roll on the ground in agony, his throat hoarse and unable to speak.

"I can't hold it anymore, it's coming out..." Although Jing Xin didn't want to be so rude, the expanding gas in his stomach suddenly pressed down on him, causing him to roll on the ground.

"What's coming out?"

.....

"Puff puff puff...Puff puff puff" a series of farts burst out like a machine gun, giving Ye Jianbai, who was closest to him, a 360-degree, all-round headshot without any blind spots.

There was a moment of silence in the banquet hall...the discussion came to an abrupt end.
