Hong Kong is in full swing

The man sitting next to her had a calm expression, his eyes gleaming with tenderness. He met Yu Wan's gaze and nodded gently, then smiled gently, and said in a firm and doting tone, "That's indeed the case."

Seeing Huo Chuyan's undisguised confession, Yu Wan suddenly felt her face flushed and her heart beating fast. She lowered her head embarrassedly, her hands began to tense up, and she couldn't help but pinch the stem of the flower in her hand and play with it, as if taking the opportunity to divert the sudden shyness in her heart.

Noticing the subtle emotional changes of the beauty beside him, Huo Chuyan slightly extended his hand towards her in an inviting gesture.

After receiving his call, Yu Wan slowly moved her feet and walked over to sit next to Huo Chuyan. Her movements were so gentle as if she was afraid of breaking this rare beauty. Finally, she carefully leaned her head on his shoulder. The whole scene was warm and beautiful.

At this moment, the air seems to be filled with a faint fragrance, making people feel very soothing and relaxing.

At this moment, Baogui suddenly suggested what dishes should be prepared for dinner, and even said, "How about making white-cut chicken?"

However, Huo Chuyan simply waved his hand and said with a smile, "Alas, this is really not my strong point. I'm afraid I can't make it as delicious as Tongtong."

Upon hearing this, Yu Wan immediately chimed in, as if trying to redeem herself for her beloved: "What's the big deal? If you compare our Huo Chuyan to others, he can truly be considered a semi-talented culinary expert!"

Her expression was full of pride and defensiveness.

"Take washing dishes, for example. He's fantastic at it!"

Seeing this, Baogui couldn't help but let out a surprised and slightly teasing "Oh~" in response.

This exclamation obviously made Yu Wan feel a little shy, so her already slightly red face now turned even pinker.

Noticing the awkward situation, Huo Chuyan, who had been watching them, gently ruffled his lover's soft hair, trying to calm her down. At the same time, he turned to look at Bao Gui, who was still laughing, and suggested in a lighthearted tone, "Okay, stop joking and go help prepare dinner."

He then cast a smiling and slightly mischievous look at Yu Wan, and said with a reassurance, "As for the task of cleaning up after dinner tonight—leave it to me!"

After saying this, he showed his signature warm smile.

After the news "Mei Shuying earns 120 million" occupied the Weibo hot search list for three days, it was finally replaced by other new events and squeezed out of the ranking list.

But the next content that attracted attention was still the story of the female artist Mei Shuying, but the theme was completely different - this time, people were paying attention to the so-called negative news: it was said that a work she created, titled "Thinking of Relatives", had plagiarism issues and was not a truly original work of art; what's worse, it was said that the work was even sold a second time!

The specific details of this crisis public relations only began to circulate widely on social media platforms around 6 pm.

At that time, major blue V accounts with a large number of followers forwarded articles or links about this incident one after another, which described in detail how the female painter had made huge profits with a similar painting and then planned to make a profit by imitating the same pattern.

The whole process was accompanied by a very dramatic and shocking soundtrack, and two pictures that looked almost identical continued to spread online.

From the end of a normal working day until noon the next day, all kinds of discussions about Mei Shuying's suspected deception of consumers have never stopped, forming an unprecedented wave of public opinion; shortly after the peak of information dissemination at this stage gradually subsided, a new round of topic discussion frenzy followed.

It is as pervasive as water, filling the eyes of netizens and firmly occupying people's attention.

From social media to major forums, both experienced netizens and ordinary people who occasionally go online are discussing the same topic.

The Internet changes so fast that the same fraudulent incident can be forgotten a year later if it is described in a different way.

People are always forgetful, especially in today's information explosion. Bringing up old things often requires a new angle and a new hype point to trigger a new round of attention.

"Oh, it turns out Mei Shuying really did fake it." This sentence ignited a fire and quickly spread across the Internet.

Netizens are talking about it, and various speculations and analyses are emerging one after another. It seems that everyone has their own set of theories.

"It's already sold for such a high price and you're still not satisfied. How greedy!" Many people commented in the comment section, their tone full of indignation and disdain.

For a time, all kinds of negative emotions were intertwined on the Internet.

In an instant, Mei Shuying's image plummeted.

From being an elegant artist, he has become a hot topic among people.

Those who once admired her began to question her character and work.

The most serious case was that a buyer of the painting "Thinking of Family" demanded a refund and an apology.

This buyer is a very important person with a strong background and resources. His requirements are a headache for the entire agency.

After all, they had never encountered such trouble before.

Someone who can casually take out 100 million yuan is certainly not an ordinary person. The agency also felt a headache, so they found Lin Jintong's contact employee to ask how to deal with this matter.

"There's a huge online uproar right now, and Teacher Mei hasn't come forward to explain. The buyer is pressing us, saying they'll call the police if we don't respond within three days. We're really stuck."

"Those paintings online have nothing to do with Teacher Mei and are not her works. After working together for so long, you should understand. Last year's "Serving Plum Blossoms" is the best proof. Someone is deliberately counterfeiting her paintings in an attempt to discredit her."

The subordinate said this, obviously anxious.

After all, if these things are not handled properly, they may have irreversible consequences for the company.

However, these things have nothing to do with the auction house, and they don’t care about them. They just need to solve the problem.

The interests of the auction house are their ultimate goal; the truth is not their main concern.

"But the buyer is really hard to deal with. Why not have Teacher Mei apologize? Or meet with the buyer privately to discuss it? After all, this happened just after they bought your painting, and Teacher Mei hasn't said anything. They're definitely going to be upset. Maybe if Teacher Mei shows up, the problem can be solved."

While the suggestion doesn't align with the company's usual approach, it may be a viable option in this particular case.
