"Since Professor Huang is unwilling, I’ll ask a friend for help."
Yan Xu is very good at shifting bla and appears helpless.
What does it an that Professor Huang is unwilling to help? Clearly, your entire family doesn’t trust him, right?
Old Professor Huang and Elder Mr. Lin heard Yan Xu’s words, and both remained silent with sullen expressions, obviously annoyed.
In front of everyone, Yan Xu called one of his friends who teaches in the Departnt of Archaeology at Capital University and is a well-known dostic appraiser.
Over the phone, after briefly explaining the situation, the other party did not refuse and agreed to co.
After hanging up the phone, Yan Xu looked at Elder Mr. Lin and Professor Huang whose faces revealed impatience. Pretending not to understand their expressions, he smiled and said:
"I called Yang Jia over. Please wait, he will be here soon."
Yang Jia, the Director of the Departnt of Archaeology at Capital University, has participated in several large-scale royal tomb archaeological and appraisal works.
Antiques authenticated and auctioned by him have never been wrong so far.
Thus, when Yan Xu ntioned that he had called Yang Jia for appraisal, no one held a doubtful attitude.
Qiaoxu, who had been accused by Yan Yufei of breaking her Duan inkstone, just smiled indifferently at this mont, saying:
"Since Professor Yang is coming, I hope there will be no further objections from Miss Yan when he gives his result."
Yan Yufei looked at Qiaoxu’s confident appearance, then at Long Pavilion owner, Long Ge’s obviously upset face, and felt a faint uneasiness in her heart.
However, since things have co to this point, if she now changes her mind and says she doesn’t want the appraisal, wouldn’t that make others think she’s guilty?
Besides, she bought the inkstone from the black market. Although it’s a shady business, the possibility of real items being sold is higher.
It’s precisely because they are genuine items that they aren’t sold openly so as not to break the law.
Therefore, Yan Yufei still firmly believed that the inkstone she bought was authentic at this mont.
With this thought, she straightened her back, looked at Qiaoxu and sneered, saying:
"Of course. Professor Yang was personally invited by my dad. With so many eyes watching here, I’m not afraid of you playing tricks."
The disdainful tone made everyone present frown.
Although she seed to be talking to Qiaoxu, it was clear that the real aning of her words was that Elder Mr. Lin and Old Professor Huang could be biased towards Qiaoxu.
Yan Miss really doesn’t know how to behave. Is it appropriate to speak like this at soone else’s birthday banquet?
Elder Mr. Lin’s face darkened even more — a perfectly pleasant birthday banquet had turned uncomfortable due to this father-daughter duo.
A cold light flashed through Qiaoxu’s eyes before she smiled and said, "That’s for the best."
Then she looked at Long Ge and said, "Young Master Long, in order to convince everyone of Professor Yang’s appraisal and judgnt skills in antiquities, when he cos to appraise this Duan inkstone, could you please lend us a few treasures to be appraised at the sa ti?"
No one here would doubt Yang Jia’s abilities. Qiaoxu’s request is not really to make people convinced but to block any possible escape for Yan Yufei and Yan Xu.
Otherwise, once Yang Jia cos and announces that the inkstone is fake, this shaless father and daughter might find so disgraceful way out.
For instance, claiming that Yang Jia made an error.
