Chapter 113: Chapter 113: Greatly Surprised

"Really?" The two still didn’t believe Jiang Xue.

"Of course it’s true."

"Then take the painting out and show us." One of the elderly men said while watching Jiang Xue, waiting for her to take it out.

Jiang Xue had placed the painting in a hidden space, so it was certainly impossible to take it out in front of the two. She smiled and said, "Please wait a moment, I’ve put the painting somewhere else, I’ll go get it now."

"You’re not planning to run away, are you?" One of the elderly men looked at Jiang Xue as if trying to see through her.

"Elderly sir, rest assured, I’m not a liar. I’m still waiting to make a profit, why would I run away?"

It was evident that these two elderly men were knowledgeable in this field. If what Little Fox said was true, then her painting would surely make money. At least, selling it to these two gentlemen would be more worthwhile than selling it at an art store.

"Alright then, how long will you take, we’ll wait here."

"Five minutes, I’ll be back in five minutes." After saying that, Jiang Xue ran quickly. After running a distance, she spotted an empty corner, dashed into the space, took out the painting, and then ran back to the previous alley.

However, what she didn’t know was that after she ran off, the two elderly men started whispering again.

"Old Xiao, do you think the little girl is really trying to trick us?"

"Old Chen, it can’t be, she doesn’t seem to be lying."

"I feel it’s risky. Didn’t you notice? The girl’s clothes show she’s from the countryside, how could she have a painting to sell?"

"Why are you in such a hurry? If there is or isn’t, we’ll know soon. Didn’t she say to wait five minutes? If she’s not back by then, we’ll leave."

"Alright, as you say."

Just after they finished speaking, they saw Jiang Xue running back, holding something in her hands.

Jiang Xue ran a bit fast, and when she reached the elderly men, she was still catching her breath.

"Here!" She panted as she handed the painting she had taken from the space to the two elderly men. The moment they saw that Jiang Xue’s painting was in a box, their expressions became more serious.

"Old Xiao, help me hold this." Old Chen handed the painting he was holding to his companion and then opened the box to take out the contents.

As soon as the box was opened, the two elderly men saw a flash of radiant light, causing them to be greatly surprised.

"This?" They had collected many paintings but had never seen one ’glow’ like this.

"Hurry, take it out and look." Old Xiao, being impatient, urged immediately.

"Don’t rush, don’t rush, I’m opening it now." Old Chen said while taking out the painting.

"Elderly gentlemen, it seems inconvenient to stand and look. Why don’t you find a place to sit and examine it slowly?" Jiang Xue suggested, not wanting the elderly to tire out.

"The young lady is right, we should indeed find a place." Old Chen thought it made sense. If it was indeed something valuable, it should be examined carefully.

"My house is nearby, let’s go there." Old Xiao immediately suggested. His house was at the end of the alley, not too far, just a two-minute walk.

"Alright, let’s go to your place." Old Chen was indifferent about it, as going anywhere was fine with him.

"Let’s go, let’s go." The two elderly men, carrying the scroll, headed towards Elder Xiao’s house.

Jiang Xue naturally had no objections and followed them. Although she had just met them, it was clear these two elderly men were not bad people.
