"Mom is not feeling well, so she asked me to deliver a message, saying that tomorrow at five o'clock, you can come over directly."
While speaking, Gu Mingyue's eyes were fixed on the painting by Zhang Daqian hanging on Lu Chenyuan's office wall, taking a liking to it.
She wasn't versed in art, nor was she pretentiously refined; what she liked was its enormous value.
If taken down and hung in her bedroom, and casually posted on Instagram, it would attract a huge number of followers; her wealthy lady persona on Instagram and Xiaohongshu had always been very stable.
The ostentatious displays of wealth by those nobodies were just a joke to her.
Gu Mingyue was accustomed to Lu Chenyuan's indifferent demeanor, due to the unpleasantness between them all those years ago over Zhao Wan'er.
It was her own fault for being blinded by money, thinking it was a chance to expand her business, only to hit rock bottom.
