Zhao Xi put down his curtain hat, and his mouth froze. He looked at Meng

Yunzheng in shock. “You… how do you know she is?”

Meng Yunzheng glanced at him. “Is it hard to guess?”

Isn’t it difficult?

Meng Yunzheng poured a glass of water for Shu Yu and asked her to sit down. “Why is Lady Lu here? You even recognized Zhao Xi?”

“It’s a long story now. Let’s put it aside for now. I have something very important to say now.” Shu Yu didn’t chat with them anymore and went straight to the point.

Her face was serious, and Meng Yunzheng could not help but sit up straight. Zhao Xi had wanted to complain that she had hit him too hard just now and wanted to say something to her. Now that he heard her words, he immediately

had no other thoughts.

He sat at the side, rubbing his shoulders and feet while listening to Shu Yu.

Shu Yu said, “You all know about the painting that was auctioned off just now, right?”

Meng Yunzheng and Zhao Xi looked at each other. “Yes.” He was the one who drew that painting.

Shu Yu said, “Then you should also know that Lord Xiang is looking for my

Fourth Uncle because he took a painting as evidence, right?”

Before Zhao Xi could react, Meng Yunzheng immediately understood. ‘You mean, the painting that was taken away just now was the one that hid the evidence of the former county magistrate? Is it the painting that Lord Xiang is looking for?”

Shu Yu nodded. Zhao Xi’s eyes widened. No way? What a coincidence!

Shu Yu said, “l saw my uncle just now. He didn’t collude with the former county magistrate to hide the evidence of his crime like Lord Xiang guessed.

We can’t find him because he’s been trapped in the black market these days. Back then, he had indeed taken the painting away, and later on, it entered the black market by accident. Then, the painting was stolen by the black market.”

Zhao Xi was suddenly speechless. Meng Yunzheng was deep in thought. “Let’s not talk about anything else. Our top priority now is to get that painting back.”

“Yes, it’s a pity that I deliberately made a commotion outside that private room just now, but no one came out from inside. We don’t know the identity of the person who won the painting, so it’s a little difficult.”

The corner of Zhao Xi’s mouth twitched. So you bumped into me so hard just for this?

Meng Yunzheng nodded. “This is indeed difficult.”

He frowned and pondered. After a while, he said, “Why don’t we try the method of stealing the beam and replacing the pillar?”

“Stealing a beam and replacing a pillar? How?”

Meng Yunzheng picked up the curtain hat beside him and put it on, saying to her,” Wait a moment.’

Then he went out. Shu Yu could hear him talking to the waiter outside.

After a while, Meng Yunzheng came back in with a box.

Shu Yu looked at the box strangely and saw Meng Yunzheng take off the curtain hat and take out the things in the box one by one.

Zhao Xi tacitly cleared the table and spread out the scroll.

Shu Yu was stunned. It took her a while to react and ask, “Don’t tell me you want to draw an identical painting on the spot as a replacement?”

“Yes.

Shu Yu frowned. “l know you’re good at painting. It’s fine if you’re good at it in the past, but this is the black market. It’s easy to identify the authenticity. Moreover, the painting you just drew is too different from the one you drew a year ago. It’s not easy to replace it.”

Besides, unless he had seen the painting before, he couldn’t draw the same painting even if he had taken a few glances at it on the second floor.

Hmm? Wait a minute.

Shu Yu suddenly looked at him suspiciously. With Meng Yunzhengs cautiousness, it was unlikely that he would do something that even she found unbelievable.

Unless….
