After the divorce, the ex-wife remarried the world's richest man
Chapter 85 This painting is very strange
His son and daughter who were with him looked at each other and both keenly realized that something was wrong.
Why do they feel like the old man has been cheated?
The appearance of Shengxia left a shadow of doubt in the hearts of the Huo family.
On the way back, Huo Tingxiao saw that Shengxia's mood had improved a little, so he finally talked to her about that incident.
"There is a result regarding the painting."
Just now at the dinner, as soon as Shengxia finished talking to him, Huo Tingxiao immediately arranged for someone to investigate.
Later, he was worried that something went wrong, so he went to check it out personally, so Shengxia was not with him at the banquet.
Shengxia didn't expect the result to come out so soon, and couldn't wait to ask: "What do you mean?"
Huo Tingxiao said truthfully: "The painting was collected from a slum in F Continent."
"Slums?" Shengxia was surprised.
"That's right. At that time, a refugee from Continent F took out this painting when he was in dire straits, hoping to exchange it for a meal. It was then brought to China, and was finally identified by our people as an authentic work of the unknown master. It was then sent to an auction."
When Shengxia heard the word F Zhou, her pupils suddenly shrank.
Because that's where my brother got into trouble...
But my brother clearly didn't leave anything behind at that time, and the place had been completely closed off long ago, so it was impossible for anything to have leaked out.
And there was no chance that the painting that she gave to her brother would be given away or thrown away by him. Shengxia was absolutely confident about this.
"How did this painting end up in the slums of Continent F?"
Shengxia asked further, hoping that Huo Tingxiao could provide more clues.
Huo Tingxiao said, "I only know that the man said at the beginning that someone gave him the painting, and he kept it because he thought it was beautiful. As for the rest of the information, because there were too many people involved, we still need to investigate carefully."
Huo Tingxiao looked at Shengxia's expression and continued, "Don't worry, I have asked someone to trace the source and investigate. I believe there will be results soon."
Shengxia looked at him gratefully and said, "Thank you."
This matter had nothing to do with him, but he was willing to help me investigate it so carefully. It would be a lie for Shengxia to say that she was not touched.
Huo Tingxiao looked at her steadily. He could see that Shengxia's eyes were filled with sadness at this moment.
"Are you willing to tell me?" Huo Tingxiao spoke slowly.
"What does this painting have to do with you?"
Shengxia glanced at him sideways and saw that his eyes were full of concern.
Such deep eyes, as if just one glance is enough to make people indulge in them.
She finally slowly told the story of her past.
"That painting...I gave it to my brother."
"You?" Huo Tingxiao was shocked.
Then he reacted, "You mean, you are the nameless master?"
Shengxia nodded, without any sense of pride in her eyes, as if this was just a very ordinary thing.
"My brother is also a doctor, and he is a PhD from the International Institute of Virology. When a rare virus broke out in Continent F, my brother led a medical research team to Continent F. Unexpectedly, a virus leak occurred, and the entire institute was wiped out, with no one spared."
When talking about the painful times in the past, Shengxia still feels the pain in her heart.
"According to the regulations, the entire laboratory was infected. In order to prevent the virus from leaking, the entire laboratory was cleared and no one or anything could leave..."
Being cleared... Thinking of that scene, Shengxia felt unspeakable pain in her heart...
My brother was still conscious when he was infected, but he could only watch and wait for death... He couldn't do anything...
Shengxia closed her eyes in pain, feeling as if a needle was stabbing her heart...
Huo Tingxiao felt suffocated when he heard what happened to her.
No wonder he always felt that there was a layer of gloom in Shengxia's eyes. It turned out that she had such a tragic experience...
Huo Tingxiao subconsciously held her hand, hoping to give her some comfort and strength...
Shengxia slowly opened her eyes and saw Huo Tingxiao looking at her with a serious look in his eyes, which seemed to contain an unrelieved heartache...
It was so hot that she suddenly felt as if her heart was burning.
Although it was hot, it was just right for her cold heart at the moment.
So, Shengxia didn't push his hand away...
"Everything is over..." Huo Tingxiao comforted Shengxia.
But apart from this one sentence, I couldn't say anything else.
Shengxia nodded, calmed down her emotions, and continued speaking.
"I drew that painting for my brother before he went abroad. He likes it very much and will keep it well. He will keep it by his side and will never give it to anyone else."
"Since the entire laboratory has been destroyed, my brother's belongings will be cleared away along with him. There is no way they will be lost outside."
Sheng Xia raised her eyes and looked at Huo Tingxiao. "So do you understand? It's very strange that this painting has been circulated."
Huo Tingxiao understood and nodded silently.
"I understand. I will have someone investigate the source of the incident."
Shengxia looked at him and saw the determination and seriousness on his face, and her heart softened.
But this matter was her business after all, and Shengxia found it hard to convince herself to stay out of it.
She suddenly said, "Tell me when you find out where that place is. I want to go to Continent F myself."
This is her business, she has to go in person.
Shengxia’s words made Huo Tingxiao take it to heart.
"Okay, I'll help you get a visa then."
"Ah?" Sheng Xia was stunned, then refused: "No, I can do it myself."
Huo Tingxiao said truthfully: "That place is now a special area, and it is difficult to get through it normally."
Shengxia suddenly realized that after something like that happened, it would be difficult to enter the regular area.
"Leave the visa matter to me." Huo Tingxiao made the final decision.
Shengxia didn't refuse anymore, "Well, thank you for your help."
"Do you have to be so polite to me?" Huo Tingxiao stared at her.
Shengxia looked at him steadily, and suddenly found that she seemed to have the same look as Huo Tingxiao, and the word she said most often was "thank you".
A smile appeared on her lips, "Because you really helped me a lot."
"Huo Tingxiao, why do you always help me?"
"Just because I saved your grandfather?"
Shengxia looked at Huo Tingxiao steadily. She didn't know why she asked such a question. It seemed very abrupt.
But at this moment, she really wanted to know the answer.
Reason told her that one person would not be nice to another person for no reason.
There must be some intention.
But he is Huo Tingxiao, what doesn’t he have?
What is so good about me that is worthy of his intentions?
In the closed car, Shengxia's words were like a muffled thunder, ringing in Huo Tingxiao's heart.
At that moment, his heartbeat could no longer calm down.
