Chapter 603 - Cai Ningxuan (4)

After returning to the second floor, Cai Qinyue asked Wen Nuan again.

Wen Nuan could only shake her head: “I’m not sure still. However, my intuition tells me that there might be something wrong with this folding fan.”

“Your intuition?” Cai Qinyue repeated. She was unable to accept this reason from Wen Nuan.

Then, Cai Qinyue added: “My daughter has spent so many years studying calligraphy and paintings. She has seen countless works from famous artists. Therefore, if she thinks that the folding fan is authentic, I choose to believe her.”

After saying this, Cai Qinyue asked Wen Cheng: “What do you think?”

Wen Cheng shook his head: “The possibility that it’s authentic should be higher than it being a counterfeit. However, my sister’s intuition has always been very accurate...”

This was not something that Cai Qinyue wanted to hear: “Do you not believe in your daughter?”

Wen Cheng turned his head to look at his daughter. When he saw the hurt and hope in her eyes, he decided to not speak again.

He didn’t want to hurt his daughter’s self-esteem.

Furthermore, he really could not pinpoint why this folding fan was a counterfeit.

“Ahh, okay then. You can bid for it. If the price is okay, we can buy it,” Wen Cheng replied. He decided to compromise.

Upon hearing this, Cai Qinyue was incredibly happy.

When the bid began, Cai Qinyue quickly held up her buyer’s number.

The price in her heart was thirty million. However, the price quickly exceeded that number.

Originally, she planned to stop bidding. However, when she saw Wen Nuan and Jian Yiling, she suddenly felt determined to buy the folding fan.

The Wen family did not lack money. Therefore, she continued to raise the price.

She raised the price to fifty million dollars.

At fifty million dollars, the folding fan was auctioned off.

The folding fan was brought over to their private room.

Cai Qinyue turned the fan around in her hands.

The more she looked at the fan, the happier she was.

“Wen Ruo, come and look at this fan! We can sell this fan for eighty million dollars in the future!” Cai Qinyue said as she handed the folding fan over to her daughter. She wanted her daughter to appreciate the antique.

If this item was authentic, it would definitely be worth eighty million dollars.

However, there was a slim chance that it was a counterfeit.

At this moment, someone from the next private room came over to Wen Cheng. This person was Wen Cheng’s business friend.

As Wen Cheng had gone down several times to examine antiques, that person knew that Wen Cheng was seated in this room.

However, his business friend told him that he had made an error in his judgment. The folding fan was a counterfeit. He knew how the fan was constructed. Furthermore, he even knew the person who made this fan.

As he was Wen Cheng’s business friend, he came over to tell him the truth.

However, he couldn’t tell Wen Cheng before the end of the auction. This was a rule at Cai Ningxuan. He couldn’t break the rules.

His words made Cai Qinyue’s face turn from red to white instantly.

Wen Ruo’s face turned white as well. She had sworn that the folding fan was authentic.

The fan that she was looking at admiringly had turned into a big problem.

At this moment, Cai Ningxuan’s staff came over. They asked Wen Cheng to pay the bill.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Fifty million dollars...

Fifty million dollars for a counterfeit.

Cai Qinyue did not want to pay up.

Paying out this money would be essentially mocking her and her daughter.

“How can you do this here? If you know the item is fake, why would you still sell it? You’re basically scamming your customers.”

Cai Qinyue was furious. She didn’t use her brain to think through her words.

However, Wen Cheng had told her in advance that buying things here was essentially a gamble.

“You don’t plan to pay up?”

“You shouldn’t be selling counterfeits!”

Upon hearing his wife’s words, Wen Cheng was terrified: “Don’t be ridiculous!”

They could afford to pay fifty million dollars. However, they could not afford to offend Cai Ningxuan.
