Chapter 626: Where Did This Painting Come From?
Si Chen shook his head slightly, "Nothing."
Tong Yao didn’t think much of it until she went to the market with Si Chen to buy a vacuum packing machine. She discovered that it was impossible to find one in this era, most sellers didn’t even know about it.
Tong Yao felt uneasy, but Si Chen didn’t ask, so she pretended not to know and did not explain it.
The next afternoon, Si Chen called Fu Sen over to discuss some matters. As soon as they entered the room, Fu Sen’s attention was drawn to the painting hanging in the living room and his expression gradually turned frozen.
Tong Yao and Si Chen noticed his unusual behavior, even Gu Hongwei noticed that something was off with Fu Sen. The three exchanged glances but remained silent.
Fu Sen stared at the artist’s signature on the painting for a while, his hand slightly clenched into a fist, his eyes showed both anger and delight. However, he quickly adjusted his mood and turned his head to ask Tong Yao, "Miss Tong, may I venture to ask, where did this painting come from?"
He asked Tong Yao because he was certain that as the lady of the house, she must know the painting’s origins. Si Chen, being a man, would neither bring home a painting painted by another woman nor purchase such a feminine painting.
Tong Yao, unaware of Fu Sen’s intentions, simply officially answered: "A friend gave it."
Fu Sen’s eyes flashed as he continued to ask, "Is her name Han Enzhen?"
Tong Yao nodded, "Yes."
