"Hall's son?"

Xu Dong narrowed his eyes slightly.

Now that Hall's whereabouts are unknown, his son must know where he went, right?

Anna continued, "If it could be confirmed that it was Hall who framed my father, we would have used thunderous means to arrest him."

"But there is no evidence now, and Lawrence is a decent and decent person, so we can't act rashly for the time being."

Xu Dong nodded to express his understanding.

Although the Grace family is very powerful, Hall, as a big collector, should not be underestimated.

In upper class society, there is a set of rules, and you cannot just arrest whoever you want.

In the absence of evidence, there will undoubtedly be outrage.

"Miss Anna."

While the two were talking, Lawrence walked over and smiled politely.

He was wearing a shiny Rolex on his hand, and he looked like a completely successful man.

"Mr. Lawrence."

Anna nodded.

"I heard that you are looking for my father? I'm sorry, I don't know where he is."

Lawrence stared at Anna with his deep eyes, and continued, "Is there anything important? You can tell me, and I will convey it to my father when I see him."

"It's not a very important thing. It's just that my father bought a collection and wanted Uncle Hall to have his hands on it."

Despite Anna's innocent temperament, she was actually very thoughtful and did not tell the truth.

"Oh, I see."

Lawrence said this, looking at Xu Dong aside, with an unpredictable smile on his lips.

"This must be Master Xu!"

"I heard that you cut a piece of colorless jade and shocked the whole country. It's really amazing!"

Xu Dong waved his hand, his expression unmoving, "It's just a trivial matter."

"Master Xu is humble."

"

From being a stone gambler to being a judge now, it shows how much the Grace family values ​​you. Maybe one day in the future, you will become the chief appraiser of the Grace Antique Shop."

Lawrence's mouth was filled with a smile and he complimented Xu Dong repeatedly.

Seeing this, Xu Dong frowned slightly.

Although these are good words, wouldn't it be a bit inappropriate to say them in this situation?

He turned his head and looked at Nak next to him.

Sure enough, after hearing this, Nak's face suddenly became ugly, and the eyes he looked at Xu Dong revealed unspeakable vigilance and hostility.

"Did he do it on purpose or unintentionally?"

Xu Dong frowned and secretly speculated that this Lawrence was not a simple person.

"Okay, I won't disturb everyone's work."

After finishing speaking, Lawrence turned around and walked aside in the spotlight, chatting with judges from other families.

It looked like nothing was happening.

Xu Dong glanced at him, then withdrew his gaze and continued to rest with his eyes closed.

What he didn't notice was that in the crowd, an old woman about fifty or sixty years old looked at Lawrence and then walked forward with a painting.

"Hello, I would like to appraise a painting."

"Painting? What painting?" Nack asked.

The woman looked like her family was not in a very good condition, and her face was full of weathered color. She replied, "This is "The Storm on the Dorian Sea". My husband picked it up by chance ten years ago and keeps it to this day."

Beside her stood a tall young man, presumably his son.

"What? "The Storm on the Dorian Sea"?"

"real or fake?"

After hearing the old woman's words, there was an uproar on the field.

.

All the guests present were slightly startled, and even Nak's face became a little calmer, and he became energetic.

I just saw so much rubbish, and now I finally have a treasure.

"The Storm on the Dorian Sea" is extremely famous in the West. It was created in the last century and is known as one of the most valuable works of art in the world.

However, twenty years ago, due to various reasons, this painting was lost and completely disappeared from public view.

Unexpectedly, he would reappear in Frank today.

If what the old woman said is true, this will go down in art history.

"Are you sure this is "The Storm on the Dory Sea"?"

To be cautious, Nakoto asked.

"I'm pretty sure."

The old woman nodded, her eyes slightly red, "If it weren't for the difficult conditions at home, I would not have taken out this painting, because my man has left, and this painting is his last sustenance."

"Every time I see this painting, it's like seeing him, and it reminds me of the scene when we walked along the Seine."

As she spoke, she wiped away her tears, looking like she had a deep relationship with her lover.

Seeing this scene, everyone was slightly moved, and even Nak's eyes softened a bit.

"Okay, let me take a look at this painting. If it is authentic, I will issue you a certificate of appraisal."

"In addition, if you plan to sell it, our Grace Antique Store will definitely give you a satisfactory price."

"Believe me, I have a good reputation in Frank."

Nak's tone was extremely confident, but the old woman shook her head, "Master Nak, I have heard of your name, but this time... I want this young man to appraise it for me."

After speaking, she raised her hand and pointed forward.

Everyone looked over and were suddenly stunned. The old woman was referring to none other than Xu Dong.

"You want me to identify it?"

Xu Dong was also shocked for a moment.

"Yes, I know that you are Master Xu who was famous at the jade auction. I think your hands must be the hands of God to be able to cut jade of that level."

"So, I want to try your luck and let you come and authenticate this painting in person."

"I don't know, can you promise me?"

The old woman spoke slowly and sincerely.

Nak's face became even more ugly, and he was so angry that he blew his beard and stared.

After finally encountering a good thing, the collector decided to ask Xu Dong to identify it. He was so depressed that he almost vomited blood.

Guo Youdao on the side smiled very happily.

The more painful Nak is, the happier he is.

"No problem, absolutely no problem. Don't worry, Master Xu has a sharp eye and will definitely help you identify the authenticity."

"Lao Guo."

Xu Dong frowned.

"What? You don't want to? Have you never heard of this painting? It's okay, I'm not here! I'll help you check it."

Seeing that Xu Dong was hesitant, Guo Youdao lowered his voice and comforted him.

This is a good opportunity to hit Nack, and he doesn't want to let it go!

This old guy was so arrogant before, but now he's like an eggplant beaten by frost.

"That's not the reason."

Xu Dong shook his head.

He felt something was wrong with this old woman.

Although he did perform amazingly in the public jade auction, that is cutting stone, which is a different field from antiques.

Many Tibetan friends came here before, and they all came for Nak.

But the old woman appointed him to do the appraisal, and it was obvious that something was wrong.

Also, when the old woman stretched out her hand just now, Xu Dong noticed that her hand was very white and smooth, without any roughness.
