I was dedicated by the female lead to the male lead

The next day, Xia Xiaomu was woken up by Zhang Heran's phone ringing.

"Congratulations, Mr. Xiaoxia! Your work "Chasing" participated in the auction yesterday, and now the price is 3 yuan..."

"Really!"

Before he finished speaking, Xia Xiaomu interrupted him in surprise.

"Chasing" is displayed in the rookie works area, which are all works of young painters, which can also be said to be a cold area of ​​the exhibition.

Unlike the works of famous painters, relying on fame can naturally attract visitors.It is not like Xia Qianbai's works are set up as a special exhibition hall, which attracts people with momentum.

Visitors look at thousands of works one by one, not only need patience, physical strength, but also easy to aesthetic fatigue.The works of unknown painters are basically left at a glance.

So Xia Xiaomu's work can be called this price, he is already very satisfied.

What's more, there is still one day left.

Zhang Heran laughed and said:

"There is one more thing to be proud of. Your father Xia Qianbai's works were favored by an oil painting collector, and he participated in five auctions in one go. There is also an oil painting dealer who wants to talk to your father about long-term cooperation. They all want to meet Teacher Xia Qianbai."

After Xia Xiaomu was pleasantly surprised, she began to rebel: "It may be difficult to meet my dad, I have to ask him, if it's really not possible, I can meet them instead of my dad, can I?"

The reason why Xia Qianbai never promotes his works is because he doesn't want to participate in such social activities.

"Ah, why is that?"

Zhang Heran didn't understand very much.

After all, this is a great thing. Xia Qianbai has really become a hit in the art world. So far, I have never seen that artist's worth rise so high overnight. It's just a little bit of network management and infiltration of the market. , After gradually becoming known to the world, the worth can be stabilized.

It is certain that Xia Qianbai is lucky, because not every artist will encounter such support from Mr. Lu and the young master of the Lu family.

But without strong artistic value, visitors will not buy it, and it can even become a laughing stock in the painting world.Look, relying on the son's nepotism and making such a big splash, it's not that none of them were sold.

After all, I am responsible for this matter. If I fail, I will also be privately worn by the association.

But now Xia Qianbai's momentum is so fierce, Zhang Heran's face is also bright, and he can't wait to see him right away, so that he can have a good time.

Xia Xiaomu explained to him: "My dad...he doesn't like contact with outsiders, which is why he has never participated in any art exhibitions for so many years. If I hadn't persuaded him, he would not have participated in this art exhibition, so... "

"Is that so..."

I could hear Xia Xiaomu's tone of embarrassment, and Zhang Heran didn't keep asking: "Then please trouble Mr. Xiao Xia to come over, let's talk to the art dealer about the future."

Xia Xiaomu looked at the time, it was already past nine o'clock in the morning.He told Zhang Heran to rush there at noon at the soonest, and hung up the phone.

Look at the empty room: Where's Brother Jing Han?Have you bought breakfast?

Thinking of what happened last night, she blushed slightly.

I unpacked it myself and said I wanted to try it, but I couldn't take it halfway through.He had heard that it was painful at the beginning, but he didn't expect it to be so painful, so he cried and said no.

Lu Jinghan endured it hard, and had to coax him non-stop.

After coaxing him to be comfortable, the little pain passed, and then he fell asleep without conscience.In a daze, he knew that Lu Jinghan had gone to the bathroom.

But looking back now, there is another feeling besides the pain.It's kind of... not bad.

He nestled under the quilt, recalled for a while, the various touch sensations left on his body by Lu Jinghan came up little by little, his body gradually became hot, Xia Xiaomu quickly crawled out before some needs were ready to come out.

After getting dressed, he went to Xia Qianbai first, and told him what Zhang Heran said.

Xia Qianbai: "For the time being... I can't meet them yet. You can make a decision, and cooperation is also possible. If they ask for a painting, you can ask them to contact me by email."

Xia Qianbai said that he couldn't see him for the time being, not that he would never see him again.

Xia Xiaomu knew it was because he was going to actively receive treatment, and one day his condition would improve, and everything was going in a good direction.

He smiled brightly: "Dad, congratulations, you are going to be famous from now on."

Xia Qianbai didn't care about these, he just saw Mu Mu happy, and he was also happy: "In my car, there are a few paintings that I just painted, you take them, and you can do whatever you want."

Lu Jinghan bought a lot of breakfast around the hotel, fried dough sticks, egg-filled pancakes, millet porridge, soy milk, etc.

When he came back, Xia Xiaomu happened to go back to his room, and hurried over to hug him: "Brother Jinghan! Wow, I bought so much!"

Lu Jinghan was still covered in the air-conditioning outside, and he put a bunch of bags and boxes in his hand on the table: "Are you hungry? I don't know what you like to eat, so I bought some. You go and send some to Uncle Xia." ?”

Xia Xiaomu nodded, took two bags and sent them to Xia Qianbai.

But my heart hurts.

Because he saw that Lu Jinghan's eyes were bloodshot, and his face was a little sleepy.

Brother Jing Han drove here for more than two hours in the middle of the night last night, and then he was messed around by himself again, but he was not allowed to release him.

He got up early again to buy breakfast for him and Xia Qianbai. After all, he probably didn't sleep much that night.

He bit the soy milk straw and asked, "Brother Jinghan, are you sleepy? Or when I go back, I'll drive you to rest."

Lu Jinghan laughed at him: "I'm afraid that when I wake up, I'm already dead."

Xia Xiaomu stared at him with a puffy face, "I really know how to drive!"

"I know, I know, I will have to wait until you get your driver's license."

Lu Jinghan poked his face and asked in a low voice, "Does it still hurt?"

The sudden words made Xia Xiaomu drink soy milk and almost spit it out.

"I haven't felt it for a long time. You... Did you go to the bathroom later?" Xia Xiaomu asked him in a low voice, biting the straw.

Lu Jinghan didn't answer, but peeled a tea egg and handed it to him: "I'm sorry, I was in a hurry. You have to get used to forgetting this kind of thing."

He didn't want to do this to Xia Xiaomu before he made it official with Xia Xiaomu.

But last night when Xia Xiaomu was blushing, shy and looking forward to asking him to try it, her whole body was as attractive as a ripe fruit, exuding a seductive fragrance, which made him want to eat them all.Maybe take your time.

Xia Xiaomu took a bite of the egg, lowered her head and asked, "What should I do, how can I get used to it?"

They sat side by side on the sofa, Lu Jinghan took out a piece of paper to wipe his hands, and pulled Xia Xiaomu into his arms with one arm, biting his earlobe with an extremely serious voice.

But the content is extremely unserious --- adaptation plan.

After Xia Xiaomu was released, her legs felt weak.

He was curled up on the sofa cushion with a flushed face, steaming all over his body.

Lu Jinghan picked up a pancake and stuffed it into his mouth, and looked at him calmly: "Just talking about it is what you are like, if it is implemented..."

"……To shut up."

~~~

After leaving the hotel, they sent Xia Qianbai back to his new home, and then Xia Xiaomu changed into a more formal set of clothes and went to the art exhibition.

When he arrived, he realized that the situation was much better than he expected.

There are about 20 visitors in the exhibition hall of Xia Qianbai's works.The difference is that they are not watching each picture in silence, but whispering to each other, discussing in low voices, and exclaiming from time to time.

Moreover, all the 27 works have been marked with the sign of participating in the auction.

Yesterday, news spread that one of the oil painting collectors ordered five paintings at one go.For a time, the name of the mysterious hermit and genius painter attracted more and more people from the industry to visit.

Artwork is like this, the more you say it is good, someone will work hard to find out what is good about it.The result is that the more you look at it, the better it feels.

Of course, there are still some people who collect art for investment preservation.

They fell in love with Xia Qianbai's status as a hermit artist, like a piece of unpolished jade, the real value has not been developed, and there is a huge room for appreciation, so they bought it as soon as possible for collection.

Xia Xiaomu could hardly conceal the joy in her heart, picked up the phone and told Lu Jinghan and Xia Qianbai the good news.

The third day of the art exhibition, although it was coming to an end, was also the busiest and busiest stage.The huge lounge became a place for painters and art dealers to discuss.

When Xia Xiaomu was invited by Zhang Heran, she immediately saw Xie Weiwan sitting on a table not far away.

She was wearing exquisite makeup, wearing a moon-white dress, and with a faint smile, talking with an art dealer.

Perhaps it was because of the conversation with Lu Jinghan that day, and the three chapters of the agreement to conceal each other, the trust between the two deepened, and even though Grandpa Lu knew about the two of them, he did not object.

When Xia Xiaomu faced her now, she was much calmer than before.

On the contrary, Xie Weiwan glanced at him uncomfortably, and continued to talk to the guest.

When Xia Xiaomu passed by, she probably heard the content of their conversation. It turned out that Xie Weiwan's work was spotted by the art dealer and was about to be sold at a price of 6 yuan.

Xia Xiaomu had seen her works.

It's not his conceit, but his own "Chasing", which is indeed better and more valuable than her "Under the Moon".

But when the works of the two are put together, Xie Weiwan's can sell for 3 yuan, while her own can only sell for more than [-] yuan.

The difference is that Xie Weiwan has long been famous in the world of painters. She was born in a family of painters, Xie Yu's granddaughter and Xie Wen's niece. These auras have been placed on her, which has raised her net worth to a higher level.

Xia Xiaomu didn't feel it was unfair, but just felt helpless.But he also believes that time will fill this helpless gap.

As long as he persists in the business, the value of his own works will surpass her sooner or later.

Xie Weiwan glanced this way inadvertently, with a look in her eyes that only Xia Xiaomu could see and understand.

It seems to be saying, aren't you valued and praised by my aunt, and you only bought [-] yuan in the end.

Xia Xiaomu became inexplicably irritable.

Anyone can do it, but I just don't want to lose to her.

The most helpless thing is that his own strength is clearly superior to hers, but she is so contemptuous.

At this time, a staff member of the art exhibition came over, and he walked over happily:

"Congratulations, Mr. Xiao Xia, you just got a new quotation for "Chasing", and it has reached [-] now. If you think it's okay, we will arrange a guest to meet you."

Another price increase!

Xia Xiaomu's depressed heart rekindled her fighting spirit. After all, there was still an afternoon, and it was uncertain who would win.

You rely on the family aura, I rely on my own strength.

He smiled and said, "Don't worry, let's discuss my father's affairs first."

Zhang Heran also said congratulations:

"Yes, Mr. Xia's matter is the most important thing. Alas, all of us did not expect the response to be so good. Mr. Lu is right. Pearls will not be dusted forever. From then on, we have another master in the art world. It is really gratifying. .”

"But it's also a pity. It has been a great loss to the art world and Mr. Xia to disappear for so many years. Fortunately, Mr. Xia won the opportunity for this art exhibition for your father..."

"Mr. Xiaoxia's works are also very powerful. Both father and son are painting geniuses, which is really enviable."

Xie Weiwan could clearly hear Zhang Heran's compliments to Xia Xiaomu. She frowned slightly and clenched her hands under the table into fists.

The price of Xia Xiaomu's work has actually increased again.

Why should he!
