Shen Qinglan's eyes sank, "What happened?"
"The gallery is on fire."
Shen Qinglan's expression changed, "Are you all right?"
"People are fine, but the painting is ruined."
When Shen Qinglan heard that everyone was fine, she felt relieved, hung up the phone, talked to Mr. Fu, and went to Daniel's gallery with Fu Hengyi.
When they arrived, there was still a fire truck parked at the scene. Daniel stood in front of the ruins of the gallery with a dark face. When he saw Shen Qinglan coming, he came over, "Why are you here?"
"There's such a big thing happening here, how can I not come, how can something so good catch fire?" Daniel called her just now, saying that the gallery was on fire, and all the paintings were burned.
"You know, they are still investigating the cause of the accident." Daniel said in a deep voice, but he was more inclined to believe that, after all, in such weather, it is unlikely that a natural fire would occur.
Shen Qinglan and Fu Hengyi looked at each other, and they were also inclined to Daniel's guess.
This time, because Shen Qinglan's solo exhibition is going to be held, the gallery is full of Shen Qinglan's paintings. When the fire broke out this time, all the paintings were burnt clean by this fire.
"Qinglan, I'm very sorry, your paintings have been destroyed." Daniel said apologetically, these paintings are all fine works, and it is impossible to say that they are not angry if they are destroyed now.
Shen Qinglan was not as angry as Daniel, and even looked calm, "It's just some paintings, if they're destroyed, just paint them again, as long as they're fine. Did you call the police?"
Daniel nodded. With such a big thing happening, it's impossible not to call the police.
Daniel has also been in the capital for many years. This gallery has been here for many years. It has been fine for so many years, but the gallery was burned when Shen Qinglan held an art exhibition. If this is not aimed at Shen Qinglan, he will be killed. Neither believe it.
The fire was fierce, and the monitoring of the gallery was not able to stay. The police could only find out that gasoline was poured in the gallery, which proved that it was indeed arson, and could not find other useful information.
Daniel's expression is very irritable. He doesn't feel bad when the gallery is destroyed. The disappearance of Shen Qinglan's paintings is what makes him most irritable. To know that a painter can create a good work, it needs not only painting skills, but also painting skills. There is a mood and inspiration when painting, even if it is the same painting, the first painting and later repainting are different.
"Okay Daniel, don't be so angry." Shen Qinglan comforted him.
Can Daniel not be angry
"Don't let me know who this person is, or I will definitely want her to look good."
In fact, he is not a candidate without doubts, but there is no evidence to prove that she did it.
Shen Qinglan was very calm. Although she felt pity that the painting was destroyed, she was not as angry as Daniel. People who didn't know thought that the destroyed painting belonged to Daniel.
Daniel looked at Shen Qinglan's calm appearance, and only felt a headache, "My aunt, when is this, do you still have the mind to make tea here?"
Shen Shen Qinglan handed a cup of brewed tea to Fu Hengyi, and then brewed another cup for Daniel, "Daniel, sit down and drink a cup of tea to relieve your breath, it's just a pile of dead things, and it can be compared to human life, this time it's so big There were no casualties in the fire, which is already a fortunate thing."
The person who set the fire was probably also afraid of causing unnecessary trouble. The fire broke out in the morning, before dawn, when there was no one in the gallery, plus gasoline was poured on it, and the fire was extremely violent. It burned. If there was an employee in the studio upstairs who didn't go back last night, maybe the fire would have burned the entire gallery to ruins, although the ruins are no different now.
Infected by the calmness of Shen Qinglan and Fu Hengyi, Daniel gradually calmed down, sat down, took a sip from the teacup, "You really are the emperor who is not in a hurry for the eunuch."
Shen Qinglan smiled, "Since the other party is targeting me, it will definitely not be like this. There is still another chance if we don't catch others this time, and we are not soft persimmons, so we can't take the initiative?"
Hearing this, Daniel rubbed his palms and laughed, "This is the Shen Qinglan I know, and there should be revenge. You're right, it's understandable that we counterattack appropriately."
Daniel's eyes rolled around, obviously thinking of something bad.
"Qinglan, do you remember the painter named Jonathan that we met in Sydney last time?" Daniel suddenly said.
Shen Qinglan naturally remembered, "What?"
"Frank has always admired him and wanted to support him, but don't you think it's strange that Jonathan is still a nobody after so long?"
Shen Qinglan didn't find it strange at all. According to someone's strong jealousy and her family power, it was only strange that Jonathan could become popular.
And Shen Qingqinglan's guess was not wrong at all. Frank wanted to make Jonathan popular, but he had no choice but to keep someone stalking him. Every time he came to an important occasion, a situation would happen.
He had warned Catherine many times, both overtly and secretly, but Catherine still followed her own way and did not restrain herself in the slightest. In addition, he and Catherine's father were old friends. Catherine had nothing to do, so she gave up the idea of making Jonathan popular.
"The person who Frank is not popular doesn't mean that I can't do Daniel. He cherishes his incompetent student, but I won't. I just want to let the damn woman see it and mess with me Daniel, and things are not so easy to solve. Yes." Daniel said bitterly.
Shen Qinglan didn't object to what he did, and everyone was bullying her, so she couldn't sit still.
Entrusting the gallery to his assistant, Daniel set off for Sydney the next day.
*********
Shen Qinglan was not surprised when she received a call from Catherine, "Miss Shen, I heard that Daniel's gallery caught fire, and all your paintings were burned. Are you alright?"
Shen Qinglan's mouth twitched lightly, "Thank you Miss Catherine for your concern, I'm fine."
"Miss Shen, we are friends, and I have always admired you. If you need any help from me, just ask." Catherine said.
Shen Qinglan's expression was light, even through the phone, she could feel the schadenfreude in Catherine's tone.
"Thank you Miss Catherine for your concern. I'm fine. As for help, I don't need any help. It's just a few works. Since I can draw them, I can draw them again."
Shen Qinglan's words were calm, but Catherine gnashed her teeth.
"Miss Shen, is that what you said? Our painters focus on inspiration. It's not a pity if you can't paint such fine works again in the future."
A cold light flashed across Shen Qinglan's eyes. This Catherine made her feel a little annoyed. In fact, she never had any deep hatred with Catherine. If it weren't for the last trip to Sydney, she wouldn't even know who Catherine was.
Shen Qinglan said lightly, "Miss Catherine doesn't need to worry about this." After that, she hung up the phone and frowned.
Seeing her frowning, Fu Hengyi said with a smile, "It's just an irrelevant person. It's not worth being unhappy for her."
Shen Qinglan glared at him, and Fu Hengyi was also one of the reasons why Catherine targeted her so much.
Being angered by his wife, Master Fu felt very innocent, so he hurried over to put out the fire, pinched Shen Qinglan's shoulders to relax, and said, "Is this fire related to this woman?"
"Well, she instructed people to do it." Shen Qinglan wasn't really angry. Seeing that Master Fu took the initiative to be courteous, he naturally suffered.
A cold light flashed in Fu Hengyi's eyes. The main works of Shen Qinglan in this exhibition were created in that small town during their honeymoon. They were full of memories of the two of them. Originally, he planned to collect them well in the future. As a result, it was destroyed in a fire.
"Let me handle this matter, don't worry about it so much." Fu Hengyi said slowly, Shen Qinglan was still pregnant, and he didn't want her to work hard.
"What do you want to do? Shen Qinglan asked him.
"You don't need to worry about this, I can never do illegal things." Fu Hengyi said.
Shen Qinglan thought about it too, and changed the topic, "Will it be two months before you come back next time?" This time Fu Hengyi came back for almost a week, and she guessed that the two monthly holidays were combined.
Fu Hengyi nodded, "Well, after I go back this time, I will report to my superiors and apply for it. If it goes well, I will return to the Jingcheng Military Region next year. At that time, your due date is approaching, and I can take care of you and the child."
Speaking of this matter, Shen Qinglan was still a little hesitant, "Fu Hengyi, don't make a decision so quickly, I hope you can think about it again, I can really take care of me and the baby, and there are my mother, Grandpa and aunt, you should rest assured."
Fu Hengyi laughed, he has already considered this matter very clearly. Shen Qinglan can be willing to be the woman behind him for his dream, and he can also give up his persistence for Shen Qinglan's sake. In a family, one cannot always be the same. people pay.
"I know this in my heart. This is the decision I made willingly. I want to take care of you with my own hands, and I also want to take care of your confinement with my own hands."
When Shen Qinglan heard the words, she looked at him speechlessly, "If grandpa heard what you said, do you think my impression in his mind would be greatly reduced?"
"No." Fu Hengyi said with certainty, "Now in Grandpa's heart, you are his granddaughter, and I picked it up." If he really wants to do this, the old man can at most say that he is useless.
"Are you jealous?" Shen Qinglan felt as if she could smell a strong sour smell in the air.
Fu Hengyi smiled slightly, "I wish Grandpa would be nicer to you." In this case, several people helped him protect Shen Qinglan.
