NovelEnglishChapter 12: Harvest wool
When Zhou Nuo heard what Xie Xuan said, he guessed, "Are you planning to send them to find the two paintings?"
The word 'paintings' successfully made Xie Xuan open his eyes.
He straightened his back and sat up straight. "Who asked Grandpa to like..."
The more he thought about it, the more indignant he felt.
He shouldn't have considered whether it was 'worth it or not' when he set the price. After all, his grandfather's preference was priceless.
"Forget it, let's not talk about it. Just arrange it as I said."
Zhou Nuo opened his mouth as if he wanted to say more, but after some consideration, he just nodded without speaking.
He understood what Xie Xuan meant.
They came to the bar to vent their emotions. In this crowded and noisy place, some things were indeed inconvenient to say.

Xie Xuan lifted his eyes to look.
Several young people had gathered near the dartboard near the bar. Unlike other bars, this dartboard area was heavily guarded by two security guards, making it look quite special.
When Xie Xuan entered the bar, he noticed this special area, but at that time, he was feeling annoyed, so he didn't pay much attention.
Now that he had drunk some wine, he had calmed down a little.
"Over there..."
Zhou Nuo had been to the Secret Love Bar a few times and knew about this special dartboard.
"Anyone who can hit the darts on the board not only wins a prize of one hundred thousand yuan but also gets all the expenses here in the future waived."
Xie Xuan smiled playfully, "One hundred thousand?"
Zhou Nuo countered, "What's wrong? Are you interested?"
Xie Xuan set down his glass and stood up, saying, "Let's go."
Zhou Nuo looked up at him, "Where are we going?"
Xie Xuan casually tucked his hand into his pocket and replied, "To harvest wool."
Zhou Nuo: ...
That little bit of wool probably wouldn't even be enough to knit a foot cover for his grandfather's pet canary!
...
Meanwhile, in a private room on the first floor of the bar.
The specially-treated walls blocked the outside noise. Lu Haiqiao leaned against the low back of the sofa with one elbow propped up, her other hand swaying her glass lazily. Her posture was relaxed and casual.
On the single sofa beside her, Xu Duo's gaze remained fixed on Lu Haiqiao.
The girl in front of her was like a goddess.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHer face was sweet, but her personality was cold and aloof. Many boys had fallen in love with her at first sight, but there were not more than ten who had mustered the courage to confess.
Because she was just too outstanding. Not only was she at the top in terms of appearance, but her academic performance was also at the top. She naturally didn't take ordinary people seriously.
Lu Haiqiao glanced at Xu Duo. When their eyes met, she smiled and asked, "Why have you been staring at me? Have you fallen in love with me?"
Xu Duo was bold with her gaze and exaggerated in her tone, "Yes, I've fallen in love with you. I love you so much..."
Lu Haiqiao raised an eyebrow but didn't say anything.
Xu Duo scooted closer and sat down beside her. "Hey, did you call me here just to listen to my confession?"
"Can't accept it, can't accept it..." Lu Haiqiao raised her head slightly and looked at the gorgeous chandelier above the private room. "I know my worth. Your confession belongs to that person."
Xu Duo was momentarily stunned and then blushed.
She tried hard to control the smile on her face, leaned her shoulder against Lu Haiqiao, and playfully rubbed against her a few times. "Hey, have you heard from him recently?"
Lu Haiqiao shook her head. "I'm looking for him too..."
Xu Duo immediately guessed. "For the painting?"
Lu Haiqiao took a sip of her drink and did not respond.
"I've checked the website and the auction company, and there doesn't seem to be any issue," Xu Duo lazily leaned against the sofa. "As for the client..."
Lu Haiqiao continued, "You can't find anything, right?"
