"Master, there is a Mr. Bailey waiting for you in the reception room. This is the letter he asked me to forward to you!" On this day, Adrian came over to report.
Tangning took the letter and read it, and was a little surprised to find that it was written by Lauren. The content of the letter was very simple. She first said that Mr. Bailey was her friend, and then said that she missed her very much and hoped that she could go to Atlanta.
Find her.
With Lauren's relationship, Tangning naturally wanted to meet Mr. Bailey. But when she heard the purpose of his trip, Tangning was surprised. After some pleasantries, Bailey got to the point and said
: "Mr. Tangning, I heard from Lauren that you have a very magical painting here called "Flaming Phoenix". Can you sell it to me?"
Tangning was puzzled because Tangning had mentioned "Fire Phoenix" to Lauren during the battle, and from Bailey's words, it could be heard that Lauren must have told him the story behind the painting.
Asked: "Mr. Bailey, aren't you afraid of the legend of this painting?"
Bailey replied without hesitation: "Of course I'm not afraid, and I came here to buy it because this painting has this legend. You may not know that my favorite art piece is this kind of strange legend, so
After hearing Lauren talk about this painting, I rushed over immediately and asked Mr. Tangning to sell it to me!"
To be honest, after taking this painting home, Tang Ning regretted it after Heidi and Brian persuaded her. She felt that she was too impulsive, but because of her face, she couldn't just throw it away. She originally wanted to learn from Hu.
I took Si to New York to sell it, but I didn't expect that people would come all the way to buy it, which saved me a lot of trouble.
Just when Tang Ning was about to nod in agreement, Bailey unexpectedly said, "Mr. Tang Ning, please rest assured, I will definitely satisfy you regarding the price!" He took out five hundred dollars.
Tangning no longer had any reason to refuse, so she nodded and agreed, "Since you like it so much, Mr. Bailey, then I'll give this "Flaming Phoenix" to you!"
After Lauren took the painting and left, Heidi said with emotion: "There are really all kinds of people in this world, and there are actually people who came all the way from Atlanta to buy this kind of painting!"
"The diversity of human beings, there are still people who like to collect shoes worn by others. The stronger the smell, the more they like..."
Before Tangning could finish her words, Heidi waved her hands with a look of disgust on her face and said, "Stop talking, it's too disgusting!"
Some time later, Tangning took the opportunity to go to New York and took a detour to Atlanta. During a break with Lauren, Lauren suddenly asked: "Tony, do you remember that someone bought the Fire Curse from you before?
A painting?”
Tangning nodded and replied, "Remember, isn't that your friend?"
Lauren shook her head and replied: "Actually, they're not really friends.
He is the lover of my good friend Niya, but after hearing the legend of this painting from Niya, he came to me and asked me to write that letter to you!"
"Oh, that's it!" Tangning finally understood why Bailey didn't talk much about Lauren to him at that time. He originally thought that Bailey was embarrassed to talk to several girls, but it turned out that he didn't know her well at all.
At this time, Lauren added: "But speaking of it, this painting is really evil. Not long after Bailey bought the painting, his house really caught fire!"
"What?! Mr. Bailey's house is really on fire?" Tangning couldn't help but exclaimed after hearing this.
Lauren nodded and replied: "Yes, it happened a few days ago. Everyone in Atlanta knows about it. It seems that this kind of legend will still be believed in the future!"
Tangning calmed down for a while and then asked, "Mr. Bailey, he..."
Although Tang Ning didn't finish what he said, Lauren already understood what he meant, so she replied: "Oh, he happened to be away from home that day, so it was okay, but his family was in a terrible situation. His father and brother were both burned to death.
!”
"Then, what about the "Flaming Phoenix"?" Tang Ning asked again.
Lauren shook her head and replied: "I don't know. Anyway, it was not found intact after the fire like you said last time."
At this moment, an idea suddenly flashed in Tangning's mind, and she had a very scary guess, so she asked Lauren: "You just said that Mr. Bailey's father and brother are dead, so does he have any other brothers and sisters?"
?”
Lauren shook her head again and replied: "No, he is alone!"
"If that's the case, then all his father's inheritance will be left to him, right? How big is this inheritance?" Tangning asked again.
Lauren seemed to understand Tangning's subtext and couldn't help but exclaimed: "You, you mean that it was Bailey who set this fire in order to get the inheritance? Ah! I understand, he deliberately
I bought your painting "Flaming Phoenix" with the legend of a fire curse, so that people will mislead the cause of the fire to the oil painting, right?"
"This is just our speculation and has no basis. It's a pity that I'm not familiar with the police in Atlanta, otherwise I could tell them about this idea!" Tangning said with some regret.
Unexpectedly, Lauren said with a serious face: "Tony, listen to me, don't tell the police about this matter. From what I know about Bailey, this guy is ruthless and has a good relationship with the police. You
It would be dangerous for a foreigner to say such things!"
Tang Ning thought to herself that the person who set his father and brother on fire was definitely cruel, so she nodded and agreed, "Don't worry, I won't say nonsense!"
Then he changed the topic and said: "We finally met, so don't waste time talking about these disappointing things. Let's seize the time!" As he said that, he climbed up with his big hand.
Lauren rolled her eyes, and while cooperating, she whispered: "Perhaps we will see each other more often in the future!" But unfortunately, Tang Ning, who was obsessed with sperm at this time, did not pay attention to this whisper.
.....
After handling business matters in New York and having an absurd affair with several women for half a month, Tangning returned to New Orleans. As soon as he got home, Heidi told him, "My brother is getting married!"
"What? Are you getting married so soon? To whom?" Tangning asked in surprise.
Heidi replied casually: "It's a woman from Atlanta, named Qiao Lei Battison! Although she is very beautiful, she always feels like she is not a good person!"
"It doesn't matter whether you think he's a good person or not, what's important is that your brother likes you!" Tangning advised, but when he saw Miss Battison, he was immediately shocked!
ps: Recommended book "The Weeds of Plugins", this creative idea and entry point are really amazing, especially the sentence "Become a grass through time, and be stepped on by others" amused me to death!
