Chapter 556: Chapter 557: No matter how capable she is, she can’t control the auction house

Eventually, Xia Yangyang spoke up: “I don’t know how competent the so-called experts present here are, but since this is for charity, an act of kindness should not be tainted with dishonesty and scandal.”

With this statement, she seemed to have offended all the experts once again.

The experts started lashing out at Xia Yangyang collectively.

“What do you, a child, know about authentic and fake art pieces? Do you think we, so many people, can’t discern between real and fake?”

“This painting is genuine. If it’s fake, I’ll eat it here and now. It seems like you’re here just to cause trouble.”

“I’ve been authenticating paintings for many years. There are only a few from Zhou Yuan in my collection, no one knows them better than I do. This painting is an original. You’re just here to spread rumors and make trouble, I don’t think you’re up to any good.”

Xia Yangyang was surrounded and attacked by so many experts.

Yet, she still maintained a composed demeanor.

Xia Yangyang defended herself: “I may not know anything about art authentication, but I am certain this painting is a fake. Are you really antique experts? Don’t you know that the original Washing Silk Map by Zhou Yuan was publicly auctioned at Sotheby’s just ten minutes ago? The Louvre officially bought it for eight hundred US dollars. So, do you think the painting that the Louvre is going to exhibit is fake, but this unauthenticated Washing Silk Map that showed up at a private birthday party is the real one?”

Xia Yangyang’s statement immediately stirred up the crowd.

What was this girl talking about? She couldn’t just be making things up.

However, someone checked Sotheby’s information on their phone.

Indeed, Zhou Yuan’s Washing Silk Map was purchased by an official exhibition hall.

The situation was so dramatic.

It made people wonder if someone was manipulating everything behind the scenes.

The color completely drained from Xia Weiwei’s face.

How could this be?

It’s impossible; this can’t be possible.

There’s no way such a coincidence could happen.

How could the Washing Silk Map be auctioned off here and at an auction house simultaneously?

Someone said: “It’s indeed true. The New York Times has already reported it. Moreover, the Washing Silk Map has been verified by various experts at home and abroad. It’s definitely an original.”

Actually, there’s no need to doubt anything.

Sotheby’s is such a high-end auction house, how could they possibly auction off a fake?

Compared to that auction, Xia Weiwei’s could barely even be considered as playing house.

Zhang Dazhi angrily exclaimed: “Miss Xia, how are you going to explain this? Are you saying that the one being auctioned off there is a fake, while yours is the original? You really take us for fools, arranging auctions on the same day. It’s all a big joke.”

Xia Weiwei was totally blindsided, everything had taken an unexpected turn.

She was completely stunned.

She had had it verified at the time.

But thinking back, the sudden appearance of the expert seemed too coincidental, appearing at the same time as the seller.

It was possible that they were in cahoots.

Which meant, she had probably been swindled out of two hundred thousand dollars.

Xia Weiwei didn’t really care about the authenticity.

Genuine or fake, how many people truly cared?

Mostly the wealthy people who came here today were just trying to be sophisticated, they were focused on their reputations.

To tell others they’ve contributed to charity, to show off their wealth, or to suck up to Jia Xin.

As long as it wasn’t exposed, no one cared if the painting was real or fake.

But then Xia Yangyang ruined everything.

But how could there be such a coincidence?

Even if Xia Yangyang was capable, she couldn’t possibly control Sotheby’s auction house, right?

Xia Weiwei had no clue what was happening and was unable to react immediately.
