Ye Fan quickly returned to the hotel, opened the door, and saw Liu Piaoxu sitting on the sofa.

There is a bottle of red wine and an empty wine glass on the coffee table.

Liu Piaoxu, on the other hand, was holding a glass of red wine.

Wearing silk pajamas, with wet hair, it was obvious that she had just taken a shower.

Ye Fan couldn't help but frown.

"Have you taken a shower at my place?"

Ye Fan was a little confused, what on earth was this woman going to do?

In fact, he was so beautiful, and his appearance was so alluring. Ye Fan was afraid that he would lose control and do some beastly things.

"Have a drink with me."

Liu Piaoxu did not raise her head, her eyes were still staring out the window.

The lights outside the window were bright, and thousands of houses were brightly lit, but at this moment Liu Piaoxu felt very lonely.

Perhaps the scene in front of him touched the softest part of his heart, so he thought of having a drink with Ye Fan.

Sitting opposite her, Ye Fan frowned slightly: "Are you worried?"

After pouring himself a glass, Ye Fan looked at Liu Piaoxu.

"Ye Fan, do you know what loneliness is?"

She spoke softly, and her voice was like the sound of nature.

There is no longer the indifference of the past, only endless vicissitudes of life.

Ye Fan's heart trembled. At this moment, she seemed to feel the misery in Liu Piaoxu's heart.

But he still smiled bitterly: "If I said that no one in this world understands loneliness better than me, would you believe it?"

He has been a human being in two lives. In his previous life, as a tombkeeper, he always lived alone and never enjoyed family affection, friendship, or love.

Even though I have relatives in this life, because of life, I have been separated from them more and less together.

Fortunately, God was kind to him and allowed him to meet Shen Tianyin and the woman in front of him.

However, Ye Fan is a conservative person and doesn't know how to express his inner emotions.

Finally, Liu Piaoxu slowly turned her head and looked at Ye Fan with strange eyes.

"What? Do you think I'm perfunctory with you?"

Liu Piaoxu shook her head and picked up the hair beside her ears.

"I know you have secrets, but I won't ask. If one day you want to tell me, I will definitely sit next to you like I am here now and listen to you quietly."|

A smart woman will never make things difficult for her loved ones.

Ye Fan smiled and nodded: "I think there will be such a day."

As he said that, he put the wine glass on the table.

It was a simple conversation, but Liu Piaoxu seemed to be in a better mood.

"Have you met Feng Ting?"

Ye Fan nodded: "We have already talked with him and he agreed to cooperate with us. However, he can only be regarded as an external force. What we really rely on is ourselves. Therefore, we can contact Feng Xiao tomorrow."

What Feng Ting said made sense, so Ye Fan did not veto it.

"In this competition, Feng Xiao will definitely invite powerful experts to help him. Are you sure?"

Liu Piaoxu couldn't help but frown. If she lost, she might not even have the last chance.

Although he could give up that batch of goods, it was not just about a batch of goods, but about the dignity of the Dark Alliance.

If this matter goes to nothing, who else will believe in the Dark Alliance in the future?

An organization that cannot even protect its own goods has no credibility at all.

Ye Fan smiled confidently: "If it were a competition with other people, I might still have concerns, but if it's a treasure appraisal, I seem to have never lost."

With his divine eyes, Ye Fan can easily see through no matter how tricky an object is.

What's more, there is only one special-level treasure appraiser and three first-level treasure appraisers in the entire Jiangnan. In addition, they are all second- and third-level treasure appraisers. These people pose no threat to Ye Fan.

Among the first-level treasure appraisers, Mr. Lei is one of his own, so he will definitely not help Feng Xiao. The other two are as strong as Mr. Lei, so Ye Fan will not care either.

Only that special one

Treasure appraiser, Ye Fan really wants to meet him.

Seeing that Ye Fan was so confident, Liu Piaoxu felt relieved.

"I wish you a great victory in this competition."

He picked up the wine glass and touched it lightly with Ye Fan, and then they drank it all in one gulp.

Early the next morning, Liu Piaoxu informed Feng Xiao that she had arrived in Jiangnan and asked him to arrange the competition.

Feng Xiao was very excited when he learned that Liu Piaoxu had come to Jiangnan, and eagerly arranged for a competition in the evening. For the sake of fairness, the venue was set at the Antiques Association.

This time, Feng Xiao did not arrange any conspiracy, because in his opinion, having Mr. Zheng on his side was the biggest guarantee to ensure that nothing would go wrong.

At this time, in the Feng family villa, Feng Xiao's face was filled with joy.

"Uncle, I have informed Mr. Zheng. Mr. Zheng is quite interested in Ye Fan and promised me that he will make Ye Fan miserable tonight."

His subordinates were equally excited and said to Feng Xiao.

Because he was in a good mood, Feng Xiao nodded with satisfaction.

"Go and pick out some treasures from the warehouse. I want to see what Ye Fan is capable of."

Ye Fan's reputation has already spread from Jiangcheng to Jiangnan.

However, people in Jiangnan have never seen Ye Fan take action, so most of them have heard about Ye Fan's reputation.

It is precisely because of this that Feng Xiao does not believe that Ye Fan is really as strong as rumored.

"Yes, my subordinate will do it right away."

The men left quickly.

Feng Xiao's face was full of joy, and he even began to imagine in his mind that he got Liu Piaoxu.

Feng Xiao is actively preparing, and Ye Fan and the others are also preparing.

This time when he came from Jiangcheng, Ye Fan specially picked up a few treasures.

With the current reputation of Boguzhai and Tianyin Pavilion, it is not difficult to find a few treasures.

"These are the items at the bottom of the boxes of Boguzhai and Tianyin Pavilion. As treasures of the store, they have never been exposed to outsiders. Therefore, even if he invites a first-level treasure appraiser, he may not be able to see through them."

Ye Fan said confidently.

But Liu Piaoxu had a suspicious expression on her face. The first-level treasure appraisers were very accurate and well-informed. If they saw through these objects, everything would be irreparable.

Seeing Liu Piaoxu showing such an expression, Ye Fan felt unhappy.

This woman obviously doesn't believe in herself.

Simply, he was going to compete in the Antiques Association tonight, so Ye Fan directly called Mr. Lei and asked Mr. Lei to come to the hotel to sit down and take a look.

Upon hearing Ye Fan's call, Mr. Lei rushed over impatiently.

He was also curious about what kind of items Ye Fan had prepared.

In just half an hour, Mr. Lei arrived at the hotel.

In the hotel conference room, three people were sitting there, and three objects were placed on the table.

At this time, Mr. Lei frowned, his face full of surprise.

Mr. Lei couldn't see through these three objects.

Even if the approximate age can be seen, the specific details cannot be determined, let alone the authenticity.

He raised his head suspiciously: "Brother Ye, where did you find these items? How could you be so partial?"

Antiques, generally speaking, are mostly porcelain, calligraphy and painting, and jade.

Treasure appraisers also focus on these objects.
