Night sky (Part 1)

After saving the figure who committed suicide by jumping off the building, the night wind blew in my thoughts while looking up at the night sky,

In the end, Fangran didn't go to the restaurant where he had booked dinner, and just kept sitting on the edge of the rooftop overlooking the bustling city of Houston.

Let this scene be the end of leaving this energy city.

Just like the melancholy I felt when I left Minneapolis,

When the plane landed again through the night sea of ​​clouds, and returned to the huge and luxurious imperial manor,

With a huge fountain, wide steps, and the aura of a top-class person, after stepping into the huge front door that is commensurate with the size of this manor,

"Welcome back, Your Excellencies."

Multiple neat voices sounded, and the maid and housekeeper, who bowed her head and looked down, and was meticulous in everything from her movements to her expressions, even if she did not prepare her routine in advance,

There were more than a dozen servants greeting him on both sides of the magnificent, crimson and gilded giant entrance hall.

She had long been accustomed to this scene. The first time after walking in, Adeline just looked at Fangran beside her and said coldly:

"The master already knows that you are coming back, young master. Please come with me."

And follow her through the long and complicated corridor route inside the giant manor, and finally come to a huge door six or seven meters high.

Watching Adeline complete a series of strict authentications, she pushed the door open as she signaled to stop at the door,

Take a splendid elevator leading to the underground,

Fangran saw a large space that could only be described as a 'Royal Exhibition Hall' appearing.

The bright glow, the flashy dome, and the elegant high wall of more than ten meters are like the entrance of a large maze, except that the walls on both sides are covered with paintings and there are uninterrupted display cabinets in the wall.

Each collection gives people a shock of a collection of treasures when they first step into it!

When I realized that this was Fiseld's treasure house, I understood why there was such a complicated certification at the door.

Fangran looked at the things on both sides as he walked inside. Each of them did not have any label to introduce it, but each one was placed there with an extraordinary atmosphere.

Classical and old sculptures, large oil paintings measuring meters in length and width, various gold, silver, porcelain and jade items in glass cabinets...

He couldn't see the origin of more than 90% of them, but there were also things that seemed familiar to him.

Opening his right eye, Fangran looked at the one in the center in a daze among the pure gold picture frames scattered all over the wall.

Then the information from the ability revealed the name of the work,

"sunflower".

Seeing the world famous works that I know with my own eyes, I felt the value of this place as if I had seen it in a subtle way. Fangran looked at the things that could be placed here with it along the way.

Leonardo da Vinci, Raphael Sansi...Ancient Egypt, Ancient Rome, Ancient China...Renaissance Era...

Looking at these names in the ability feedback, the air seems to be flowing with a precious breath of treasures that have crossed the long river of history.

It's hard to imagine what kind of person could own such a huge collection of rare items.

Then after feeling this, I met their owner,

Fangran looked at Veronica who was standing in front of a person-high oil painting, and couldn't help but ask the same question as last time.

"So how many other places are there that are so outrageous?"

Her flawless face has perfect red lips, her long silver-gray hair is pulled up into an elegant hairstyle, and the details of her skirt reveal a sense of beauty and nobility, highlighting the temperament of her hostess.

Veronica turned her head and responded with a chuckle as if she was happy to see him back:

"Didn't I tell you everything if you agree to my invitation?"

I walked up to her and took a look at the abstract foreign oil painting she was looking at. I couldn't appreciate such profound art at all.

“Where did you get so many world heritage sites,”

Fangran just looked around at the scene like the Louvre, and then couldn't help but look at her helplessly in silence:

"Say, a lot of things here are even stolen or lost, right?"

"A lot of things always accumulate over a long period of time. Most of the things here are harvested by O'Brien family members from all over the world since the last century,"

"Of course, they are all bought with normal money."

After explaining casually in a light tone, he used a smile to explain the details of where he bought it.

Veronica looked at Fangran with a smile on her face:

"Are you interested in my collection? Would you like to pick a few pieces as gifts?"

I still remember that the things Veronica randomly placed outside the room area cost hundreds of thousands of dollars. Who knows how much the world-class treasures she can treasure here are worth?

"No."

Sighing in rejection, unable to accept such an expensive gift, Fangran ended the greetings and turned to the topic:

"You should have read all the reports on this incident in the energy field."

Hearing what he said, he turned around and stepped forward,

While Veronica slowly walked further inside, she turned her smiling silver-gray eyes.

"Are you saying that you completely ignored Adeline's temptation on the yacht, then left her and the three female participants and did what you didn't know, and disappeared with a young girl for a day and a night?"

Although this is indeed the case...

But why does it sound so weird?

Hearing this statement as if he was a scumbag, Fangran followed her footsteps and couldn't help but put his head on his head and said with a headache:

"Can you care about something normal..."

"For example, you just said seriously that there was no time to dance, but the next second you fell in love with a representative of a European company and invited her to dance in public?"

Fang Ran: "..."

The moment I heard Veronica say this, I recalled the sight from behind when I was dancing with Ophia that night, and Adeline's sharp remarks during the day.

I knew that guy was holding a grudge...

But what exactly did you write in the report? Don’t tell me like I’m a playboy!

Noticing the interesting look on his face at this moment, she raised the corner of her mouth with a slight smile, and Veronica said with a smile while strolling leisurely:

"Other than that, what else should I care about?"

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Sometimes it is a small painting that covers a wall, sometimes it is a huge oil painting with a gilt frame that covers a wall.

She looked at the collections she passed by, which were almost worth tens of millions of dollars, and made a sound.

"You repelled the attackers at sea and ensured that the signing meeting went ahead. Although one NE was missing, the crisis in the energy field was lifted,"

"This result is enough for me."

There is no signboard or any route to the private 'collection room'. Follow her very familiar footsteps and choose the right side at the fork in the road and walk deeper.

"But there should be a way to ensure that NE does not fall to the other side."

Thinking of the flaws in this incident that led to the eventual increase in costs, Fangran felt that it could have been avoided by her or Adeline.

"Indeed, if it had been foreseen in advance, there would have been many ways to make NE stand firmly on our side,"

Hearing Fangran's words, he smiled as if he could do this easily,

Veronica looked at him with a hint of trust in her tone.

"But since it's been left to you, I won't pay too much attention."

It's not a 'night fight thug', but a real CEO. I can hear this meaning again from her words,

Fangran remembered what she had said last time in that huge library, and also remembered her prophecy about 'George'.

But just at the moment when he was about to speak about what he understood,

"However, speaking of which, I do care about something."

Veronica suddenly changed her voice.

"All electronic information was destroyed, and no backup was left. The only paper information that was stolen was a trap that the other party could destroy at any time to lure us into wasting time in retrieving it."

"None of the methods I envision are really going to be able to retrieve it and solve the crisis..."

Slowing down his steps, he explained slowly, and at this moment he turned his mysterious silver-gray eyes,

Veronica looked at the young man beside her with an inexplicable color in her eyes.

"After reading Adeline's report on this incident from beginning to end, there is only one thing that makes me curious, or should I say incredible,"

Her slightly surprised chuckle contained a hint of genuine curiosity.

"How the hell did you get that contract back?"
