Chapter 60 - 56: Being Followed Again (14th Update)
Shen Jianian stood still, not understanding his intention, until Zhu Yilan quietly reminded her: "The boss’s hand got dirty."
Shen Jianian reacted slowly, took the packet of tissues, and pulled out one to place in Fu Jichen’s palm.
Fu Jichen looked at her steadily, feeling amused and a bit annoyed. He stood up for her, yet she was unwilling to even wipe his hand.
Fu Jichen closed his palm, using the disinfectant tissue to repeatedly wipe the hand that President Wu had touched. His slender, artistic fingers looked like a piece of art.
President Wu’s face turned pale and red at this sight, unable to utter a word.
"Let’s go." Fu Jichen put his arm around Shen Jianian’s shoulder and returned to their original seat, not wasting time entangling with Mr. Wu.
The onlookers were amazed. After all, President Wu was a somewhat famous entrepreneur in Yicheng, yet Fu Da showed no courtesy, leaving him embarrassed with every word and action.
Shen Jianian was frightened by the incident, feeling a little down after sitting down.
Lu Yanzhi ran into an acquaintance, left the hall to chat elsewhere, and missed the drama that had ended by the time he returned. He noticed the atmosphere wasn’t right, took a sip of tea, and asked, "Did I miss something?"
Neither of them spoke, leaving Lu Yanzhi feeling awkward as he touched his nose.
The second half of the auction began. The "Green Mountains and White Birds" painting Lu Yanzhi wanted was indeed the highlight, causing a stir once it was presented, with scattered discussions spreading through the crowd.
Lu Yanzhi wondered nervously; everyone who came to the auction was knowledgeable, and many people were likely eyeing this painting.
