Be a Good Boy and Marry Me-Chapter 456 - 331: Her Master is Not Dead_2
Chapter 456: Chapter 331: Her Master is Not Dead_2
“It doesn’t hurt. You can pinch harder.”
Gu Li urged.
Mo Shiting followed instructions and pinched her harder.
“Ah, it hurts.”
Gu Li finally felt the pain.
“Ha.”
Mo Shiting grinned.
This little girl… Could she possibly think she was dreaming?
Indeed, in the next second, Gu Li exclaimed enthusiastically, “Haha, it’s real, I’m not dreaming. My master has work on display, wuwu, does this mean he is still alive?”
“Perhaps.”
Mo Shiting slightly nodded, his eyes dimmed with a doting smile.
Prior to this, he also wondered if someone might have stolen the name Chuan Liu, but after some inquiry, he was able to confirm that the auctioned oil painting was created by Chuan Liu himself.
As for the year of painting, it would probably need verification.
If it was painted in the recent years, then it would imply that Chuan Liu was probably still alive.
Gu Li thought the same, therefore she was extraordinarily happy.
Considering the situation, Mo Shiting silently swore in his heart, no matter what, he would bring that oil painting back home tonight.
Murong Si had the same thought as Mo Shiting. For Gu Li, he too must win that painting.
Upon hearing the name “Chuan Liu”, Gu Susu paused for a few seconds before responding, “Brother Si, isn’t Chuan Liu the name of Gu Li’s master? Does this mean we have news of Gu Li’s master?”
Murong Si took the rare initiative to respond, “Probably so.”
“That’s great!”
Gu Susu clapped her hands in happiness.
The “Beautiful Master” was quite nice to her too, and had taught her many things. However, he only took Gu Li as his student. No need to mention how jealous she was of Gu Li.
In the audience, everyone held their respective thoughts. On the stage, the host spoke, “Alright, after introducing this mysterious master’s achievements, we will welcome Chairman Tan from the Hua Country Painters Association to unveil this mysterious oil painting for us.”
As the host finished his joyful remarks, melodious music played and Chairman Tan, dressed smartly in a suit, walked onto the stage under everyone’s gaze.
“Clap clap clap——”
Applause sounded as the red cloth was pulled away.
First appearing in everyone’s view was a young girl sitting by a lake.
She sat sideways, wearing a white dress. Even with just her profile showing, she was unimaginably beautiful.
At first glance, Gu Li recognised it, “It’s my Master’s painting!”
Be it the style or the crafting, the Master had his unique manner, something no one else in the world could replicate.
Gu Li had painted with him since she was young, so no one was more familiar with his work.
Thinking about this, she couldn’t help her eyes welling up with tears.
“Wuwu, this painting must’ve been painted by my master after he left me. But who is that young girl? Did my master take on another beautiful student? Wuwu…”
Hearing her childish sobbing, Mo Shiting couldn’t help but smirk, “That’s enough, don’t cry anymore. It’s a good thing your master is still alive, right?”
“Mmm mmm, yes, I’m not crying. And I won’t be jealous of this young girl.”
Gu Li sniffed, her sobs turning into laughter.
Mo Shiting gently wiped her tears with his finger, his tone suddenly serious, “As long as you become my muse, you don’t need to be someone else’s.”
Gu Li laughed out loud, “Brother Ting, are you really jealous?”
“Mm, I am.”
Mo Shiting seriously responded.
At that moment, the host announced the start of the auction, also starting at 1 million.
Gu Li quickly gathered her spirits, “Brother Ting, let me bid this time.”
“Alright.”
Mo Shiting agreed, handing her the bidding number.
Gu Li smiled, said “Thank you”, and raised the number, “10 million.”
She must bring home her Master’s painting. No one can snatch it from her!
Unexpectedly, the girl’s initial bid of 10 million instantly caused a stir in the crowd.
Everyone turned to look at the source of the voice. Seeing Mo Shiting sitting next to the girl, they immediately understood.
Undoubtedly, this girl must be the rumoured young mistress of the Mo Family, right?
She was indeed beautiful, no wonder she could make Mo Shiting fall for her.
With Gu Li’s high bid of 10 million, no one competed against her instantly.
She was ecstatic, thinking she was about to win, but so close to victory, Murong Si once again stepped up, “20 million!”
Damn!
20 million?
Did she offend Murong Si?
Daring to pit her like this?
So infuriating!
He clearly knew that Chuan Liu was her master and that this painting was something she had to have.
The more Gu Li thought about it, the angrier she got. After taking a deep breath, she made her next bid, “21 million.”
