Reborn to inherit a 100 billion fortune, the real daughter is crazy

The Japanese pirate country has always been more respectful of Chinese traditional paintings. The reason why the old man of the Gu family only dared to sell Mo Li's works overseas was probably because he was afraid that she would find out about this and that she would never contribute paintings to him again!

A chill suddenly rose in Mo Li's heart.

Although this was not the first time she had been betrayed by those closest to her, she still couldn't help but feel a chill every time she learned of their true colors.

Xiao Shenghe also told her: "Thanks to your family member who discovered this matter, I was asked to find a way. It took a lot of effort to get all ten of your paintings back."

Mo Li thought of Chi Cunxu's face, which was cold yet gentle, and a warm feeling spread through her heart.

"Thank you for telling me this, Mr. Xiao."

Mo Li expressed his gratitude to him sincerely: "If it weren't for you, I would probably still be kept in the dark and continue to be used by others without knowing it."

Xiao Shenghe smiled and waved his hand: "No need to thank me, I know this kind of thing is hard to accept at the moment, but you don't have to be too sad."

"Sad? Why should I be sad?" Mo Li was puzzled. The smile on his face didn't seem fake. "Someone followed Lei Feng's example and did good deeds behind my back. I just painted a few paintings, but they marketed me as a mysterious oriental Chinese painting genius. Why should I be sad? ... As for the money from the auction of those paintings, can't I, as the original author, get it all back?"

Without doing anything, he was able to earn hundreds of millions of dollars for free and became a famous painter inexplicably. Who would be sad about this?

Xiao Shenghe looked at her steadily for two seconds, then burst into laughter.

"I finally understand why Chi Cunxu fell in love with you."

……

Looking at the bloodless face of the octogenarian across the tea table, Mo Li blinked gently.

"Grandpa Gu, to this day I don't want to find out why you did this. The reason why I didn't expose this matter in public is that I am grateful for your care for me over the years, and I want to save your face and protect your reputation as the chairman of the Chinese Painting Association..."

Mr. Gu just breathed a sigh of relief and was about to say something high-sounding to appease her, when he heard her continue, "However, now that I know about this, shouldn't you return the money from the auction of my paintings to me?"

There was silence in the air for a few seconds. Old Man Gu looked at her, unable to speak for a long time.

He obviously didn't expect that Mo Li's main purpose was not to call him to task, but to ask for money from him.

She took out another list from her handbag. It was a list of the amounts her ten works had been auctioned for that Xiao Shenghe had helped her compile.

Mo Li still had a calm and composed smile on his face:

"Grandpa Gu, today is your birthday, and I still hope to resolve this peacefully. I will be generous and not settle the other part with you. Over the years, you have made a total profit of 123,650,000 yuan from the auction of my paintings. For the sake of our relationship as grandfather and grandson, I will give you the 50,000 yuan change - a total of 123,600,000 yuan. Please return the money to me as soon as possible, otherwise don't blame me for going back to the banquet hall now and making this matter known to everyone, which will ruin your reputation in your later years."

When Mr. Gu saw that she was serious about him, his kind face changed instantly.

What a joke! He had indeed made a lot of money over the years by secretly auctioning off Mo Li's works, but it also took money to make an unknown painter famous in the Japanese pirate country!

Does this girl Mo Li really think that her paintings are so valuable from the beginning?

If he hadn't worked so hard behind the scenes over the years, organizing various art exhibitions and promoting the art crazily, how could Mo Li's paintings have become so popular there in such a short time?

Not to mention other things, the entire association has invested tens of millions in the initial marketing costs alone. It was only in recent years that Mo Li's paintings gradually became famous, and the auction prices have risen accordingly.

Now, she only gave him a small change of 50,000 yuan and wanted to take back all the income from the works?

It’s simply a fool’s dream!

……

Things have come to this point, Mr. Gu simply stopped pretending and laid his cards on the table.

"Hmph!" He said coldly after a moment's silence: "Xiao Li, you are playing tricks on an old man like me? Since you already know about this, I don't want to argue for myself - but don't forget, if it weren't for an old man like me who had a keen eye for your painting talent and had worked hard to promote your works to others over the years, your paintings would only be a pile of waste paper."

"From ancient times to the present, how many painters have only started to be admired after their death? It was wrong for an old man like me to hide this from you, but it was because of me that you had the opportunity to become famous at a young age. How dare you turn around and condemn me, your benefactor? You should thank me because it was me who gave your paintings such great value!"

"Besides, in order to sell these paintings of yours, I have already invested more than tens of millions of dollars over the years. You actually want to leave me only 50,000 yuan and then take all the money away? That's too good to be true!"

Old Master Gu's expression was indignant, as if he was blaming Mo Li for being ungrateful. When he got angry, even his breathing couldn't help but tremble, and he looked shaky.

Mo Li looked at Grandpa Gu who was sitting opposite her and looking at her menacingly, and felt extremely strange - was this really the Grandpa Gu she had always known?

Or, does she know the real Grandpa Gu? Maybe this is his true face.

Compared to Mr. Gu's excitement, Mo Li was much calmer and more composed:

"What should I thank you for? Thank you for not reselling my paintings to Korea. Otherwise, they might be stolen and nothing would be left. Even my nationality would have to be changed."

Seeing that Mr. Gu remained silent, she raised her eyebrows:

"Grandpa Gu, I like Chinese painting, but I never wanted to be a young and famous painter, and I don't need you to take the initiative to auction my paintings. What you did was nothing more than to satisfy your own selfish desires, so that you can make money and gain fame... If you have no objection to the amount on this paper, then pay it back as soon as possible, so that you can at least keep your reputation and money."

"If I have to resort to legal means to resolve this matter, I'm afraid it will be embarrassing for you."

Mo Li knew too well what these people were thinking. The biggest reason why Grandpa Gu used her like this was simply to make huge profits.

Since he cared so much about that little bit of money, she was determined to get it all back.
