Nieng Yunzhengs words made Shu Yu and Zhao Xi’s expressions turn solemn.
Shu Yu did not know much about the rules of the black market, so she could only ask them, “The painting has been bought by the other party. When will the black market send it to them? We should make our move.’
Meng Yunzheng was drawing. Shu Yu turned to Zhao Xi to avoid distracting him.
Zhao Xi said, “After the guests in the private room bid for the auction item, the black market will send the auction item to the buyer’s private room after an hour. If the buyer was no longer interested in the next auction item, they could choose to leave after obtaining the item. If they were interested, they could stay in the private room and leave after everything was over.”
When the buyer left, the people from the black market would be escorted by a few guards until they left.

“An hour later?” Shu Yu asked. It had been 25 minutes since the painting was auctioned, right? If they get the painting soon and are ready to leave, we won’t be able to make it in time…”
She looked at Meng Yunzheng, who was still painting. Although he was fast, it would still take a long time.
Shu Yu pursed her lips. “No, I have to go back to the third floor and think of a way to keep an eye on the people in the private room. If they get the painting and are about to leave, try to stop them. Young Master Meng, I’ll leave the painting to you.”
Meng Yunzheng nodded and his hands moved faster and faster. “Okay, which private room are you in on the third floor? I’ll look for you after I finish drawing. Yuan Shanchuan knew what the painting looked like and where it was damaged and stained. 1 had to ask him to recall.”
“Room 12.”
After Shu Yu finished speaking, she nodded at them and quickly walked to the third floor.
There was still no movement in the buyer’s private room, but two people in private room No. 12 that she had booked were already waiting until their hair was about to smoke.
When Daniu finally saw Shu Yu return, Daniu heaved a huge sigh of relief. He quickly went up to him and said, “What took you so long? 1 almost thought something happened to you.”
Shu Yu placed the curtain hat in her hand on the table. She had asked the waiter for it when she went upstairs just now.
“l saw two friends just now. It just so happened that we needed their help with this matter, so I discussed it with them and came back late.’
Yuan Shanchuan heard that someone was helping and immediately asked, “Is the other party reliable?”
This was no small matter.
Shu Yu nodded. “It’s reliable. It’s someone that Lord Xiang knows.”

Shu Yu handed a set of clothes to Yuan Shanchuan. “Fourth Uncle, I borrowed these clothes from a friend. You can change into them.”
The clothes that she had prepared for Yuan Shanchuan were too big. If he wore them out like that, it would look suspicious.
Fortunately, Zhao Xi and Yuan Shanchuan were about the same height. The spare clothes on his side were just right for Yuan Shanchuan.
Yuan Shanchuan quickly went behind the screen to change into it. He had lost a lot of weight recently, so the clothes were still a little loose, but it was much better than the previous one. It was not a problem to wear a belt.
When he came out, he saw Shu Yu pressing down the shutters on the window and looking at the private room.
“Yu, what should we do next?”
“Keep an eye on them first. We can’t let them leave the black market for the time being..”
