Bring Your A Game, Mr novel Chapter 651

Chapter 651 Master of Ink Painting

“Miss Hill, are you planning to protect SQ’s beloved artwork for her?” Somebody joked.

Tiana smiled faintly. “This painting has always been one of my teacher’s favorites. Not only will I put the old lady in a good mood if I purchase this and bring it back, but I can also perform charity at the same time. So, why not do it?”

“Miss Hill, you sure are attentive.”

“That’s right. You are so considerate. It’s no wonder that you are the only one whom SQ favors!”

“You are praising me too much.” She lowered her head humbly.

Elise raised an eyebrow at those words, feeling rather annoyed. The old woman? I’ve only been married for less than a month. I’m at the peak of my youth! When did I become an old woman!? My painting has no reason to fall in the hands of others either.

“Two million.” Her voice rang out like the toll of a bell in the morning, seeming to awaken all the people who were immersed in flattering Tiana.

Joey gasped at those words. She turned to the side and looked at Elise. “Why did you say no when I offered to buy it for you just now?”

Elise shrugged nonchalantly and looked innocent. “I never said that.”

While she spoke, she parted the crowd and walked to the position closest to the cordon, where she stood side by side with Tiana.

“I apologize, Miss Hill. I’ve had my eye on this painting for a while now. I’m afraid I can’t surrender it to you so easily.”

“That’s right, Tiana. You can pick a different painting and put the cost on my tab.” Joey came over on her own and observed Tiana with a wary look. Isn’t she that first-ranker who was manipulating the votes last night? Besides, her disposition is much worse compared to Elise when I look at her in person!

The smile on Tiana’s face faded considerably, but she continued to smile. It’s Elise again. Just what grudges do I have against this woman in my past life that I keep running into her everywhere!?

All of SQ’s artwork has room for value appreciation. If she bought this painting, it would only bring her a steady profit over time. Moreover, she could create a good reputation for herself by preserving her teacher’s artwork. Every move she made had been well-planned, but trouble just had to appear out of nowhere.

Although she could raise the price a little more, the other party had already mentioned that they first had their eye on this painting. Therefore, it would be disgraceful if she insisted on increasing the bidding price any further.

In this case, her reputation and demeanor were much more practical than the money she spent.

“No need.” She composed her emotions and gently said, “A gentleman does not snatch another’s beloved. Besides, the principle of ‘first come, first served’ stands in all matters. I would also like to thank the two of you for your generosity in buying the works of my teacher.”

Her remarks were utterly foolproof. Not only did those words highlight her tolerance, but they also allowed her to subtly resolve a dispute. So, regardless of how one looks at her, she would be regarded as a well-educated and cultivated lady.
