Chapter 1483: Chapter 1554: Carried Away
Because this is a Monet painting, in her previous life she saw a report saying that a couple got lucky and bought it thinking it was an ordinary artist’s work for fifty thousand yuan.
In fact, it’s worth over a billion.
Housekeeper Xing watched Sheng Ning buy the Monet painting, unable to hide the satisfaction in his eyes.
Because this was also a test for Sheng Ning from Sir, testing her luck and vision. Every time Feng’s global art auction is held, they deliberately auction off an authentic piece as if it were an unknown work.
This has been a tradition of the Feng Family for over a hundred years, originally a business tactic, but after the Feng Family became wealthy, it turned into a symbol of wealth and status.
Rich people often like to deliberately create stories that can be talked about for a long time.

After the auction ended, Amber gracefully entered Sheng Ning’s box to extend an invitation.
"Hello, esteemed Miss Sheng Ning."
Sometimes, the etiquette of an English gentleman really makes you feel like a princess. Amber has always served royalty and nobility, and his manners are impeccable.
Xu Qigang gave the other party an indifferent glance and then a reassuring look to Sheng Ning.
"Hello!" The other party was polite, so Sheng Ning naturally wouldn’t neglect him and proactively stepped forward.
"Our Duke would like to invite you and your family to dinner tomorrow evening."
Sheng Ning felt a pang in her heart, thinking the invitation might not be entirely well-intentioned. However, since he was the Duke of Westminster, she had no reason to refuse, especially since she’s staying at his place!
"It is an honor for my family and me."
"Here’s the invitation, please keep it," Amber handed her a pale pink gilded invitation card and then turned to leave.
She looked across to the other box, but it was already empty.
"Let’s go!" Xu Qigang embraced her, "It’s getting late, let’s go home!"
"Don’t you have a task?"
"You’re more important." He gently breathed into her ear, causing Sheng Ning to almost dare not meet his burning gaze.
Renault came rushing up from downstairs, giving Sheng Ning a big smile.
"Sis-in-law."
"Renault." In the recent rush, she hadn’t had time to greet Renault, "Is Feng Xiaoli doing well? Are the others okay?" She was very concerned about her friends back home.
"Everyone’s fine." Renault replied, scratching his head sheepishly, "Everybody misses you and is waiting for you to hurry back, Sis-in-law."
"I miss them too, I’ll return as soon as I can." Yesterday, Sheng Ning wrote another letter to Teacher Qiu Bai, to be passed on to Chen Huaying, and sent many things as gifts for everyone.
Xu Qigang’s jealousy resurfaced, "Let’s go! If we don’t go home, the little girl will fall asleep, and how am I supposed to bond with my daughter?"
Sheng Ning chuckled, wanting to ask if he truly wanted to bond with their daughter.
If he really did, he should just go back by himself! She could go together with Gu Yunbo.
Renault watched his team’s leader directly carry Sis-in-law away, gaping in disbelief.
Is this even possible? He learned a new trick.
Outside Victoria Theater, the lights were dazzling, and Lin En’s small body was almost completely obscured by the woman blocking her in front.
"May I ask if you have any business?" the little guy asked very politely.
Demira said awkwardly, "I am willing to be an ordinary employee, please hire me!" After experiencing hunger and cold, her previous arrogance was completely gone.
