The language barrier is not good, because I can't understand the meaning of the sentence, so I can only guess the content from the expression.
In addition, after Su Zheng came to France, he encountered a series of bad guys, and subconsciously saw that everyone was a little bit hostile, so when he saw someone talking to him, his first instinct was that the other party did not say anything good.
Ye Shuang explained with a smile: "Serif didn't speak ill of you, he asked if you were the one looking for him... I think he already guessed that it was you who took revenge on him."
Su Zheng was immediately proud, and looked back proudly with her head held high: "You know how powerful my sister is, you little thief!"
"... It's said that people can't understand Chinese."
Ye Shuang sighed helplessly, and after reminding again, she shook her head and turned around: "Mr. Serif, I think we should talk about our affairs later. As for now..." He naturally stretched out his hand and took the canvas back into his hand: " I believe you don't mind if I take my painting back?"
Serif finally turned his attention away from Su Zheng, who "can put an oil painting in his backpack without being discovered by himself", and shook his head: "Please go ahead, I will talk to you later."
Now that he already knew the purpose of the other party's visit, and also knew that he owed someone who should not have stolen, Serif was naturally willing to gamble and admit defeat, and would not do such a thing that refused to admit it.
If it is an official department such as the FBI that pays attention to evidence, it is okay to say, but when it comes to this kind of kind that walks outside the rules, the so-called objective evidence is no longer an important factor for their judgment in doing something. Instead, what determines everything is the subjective will of the other party.
This kind of person is not willing to swallow his grievances obediently if he can't get evidence.
Ye Shuang and the others didn't bother, as expected, they turned around and left quickly, taking an oil painting with them with a wave of their hands.
Serif was also a little surprised that the other party was so easy to talk to. When he was breathing a sigh of relief, he turned his head and saw the collector's expression suddenly thoughtful and serious. The flaxen-haired young man suddenly felt a thump in his heart, and he realized it belatedly—as if he had been bullied...
"That oil painting belongs to that oriental girl?" the collector asked in an awkward tone.
Serif smiled wryly: "Uh, I think so..." I have already admitted it just now, and it will only be more embarrassing to say it now.
When the collector heard the definite answer, his expression became even more gloomy: "But the painting that belongs to her is in your backpack, and it was signed with your name?!"
This is no longer a question, but an affirmative statement.
Serif rubbed the bridge of his nose in distress... Just now he was only concerned with shocking the other girl's superb technique. At the same time, by the way, there is also the concern that the other party will reveal his identity as a thief. And the worry that he may have offended a certain force... In the face of these more serious situations, Serif certainly has no time to consider the collector's mood, after all, in case something bad happens. Maybe I will face a steady stream of troubles.
But now after passing the level easily, Serif discovered that the purpose of the other party's party might not be to declare war on him, but to disturb his "business".
Collectors obviously appreciate the oriental girl's painting skills, but it's not the same. Serif played the role of a shameless thief in this. Well, he would have been a thief too. But God can testify that the "criminal facts" this time really have nothing to do with him.
"I don't want to know what you want to do with stealing that girl's painting, but it's obviously improper." The collector took Serif's silence as acquiescing, and his angry attitude was completely opposite from before.
How much he admired this "talented and humble" young man at first. Now he has the same amount of dislike for the other party: "Maybe it is to gain fame, maybe it is to steal the glory that belongs to the other party... No matter what you want to do, I am very disappointed in your current behavior!"
Serif: "..." He was really wronged this time.
…
Less than three minutes. Collectors quickly left the café.
Su Zheng gloated and gloated, expressing her satisfaction with the result of her shot.
Howard sighed regretfully. He could completely imagine Serif's mood. This was probably the first time since the other party's arrogance to play tricks on the FBI, he was so depressed.
Serif, who was ruthlessly abandoned, sat alone in the same place. He poured himself a cup of coffee and calmed down for a while. After a long while, he rubbed his face and stood up. When he came over, he couldn't help asking: "Everyone, did you do it on purpose?"
While simultaneously translating for Su Zheng, Ye Shuang answered the words smoothly: "There is no way, your behavior has made my subordinates feel very bad these days. I also want to tell you a truth—"
Ye Shuang looked at Serif seriously, and said earnestly: "...you have to pay it back if you come out to mess around."
"..." for this
Serif silently looked at the proud Su Zheng, and then at the righteous Ye Shuang: "...you have given me a new understanding of women's hearts."
The yellow deal is already a fact, no matter how depressed Serif is, he can only admit that his skills are not as good as others.
And more importantly, before Ye Shuang and others showed further hostility, Serif also felt that this is the best result. If you want to continue to care about it, you can imagine the future What a mess it will be.
Likes excitement does not mean that the brain is sick, no matter how much Serif likes to play around, he will not cause trouble for himself... Especially after Ye Shuang confessed to him that the person who tracked down his hotel address was Antonis.
"Oh, Antonis!" After obtaining Ye Shuang's consent and connecting to the video call, Serif sighed while looking at the big golden-haired head in the tablet computer: "So it was you! I wonder how anyone could find me .”
Antonis, wearing big headphones, was tapping away at another computer, taking time out to watch the video. After hearing Serif's strange opening remarks, the golden retriever took off his earphones and looked over strangely, and looked at Serif carefully for a while: "Hey! Who are you? No, no, I'm not saying I don't know you, but I remember we should No dealings."
"...The Halloween ball in Kansas, you dragged into the room and got involved with a bunch of troublesome magicians?" Serif gave the other party an impression speechlessly: "I think you should remember that hapless guy? That's me. "
"Drag into the room?" Ye Shuang's eyes lit up.
Howard was enthusiastic: "Wow, the chaos in Kansas... Could it be the one three years ago?"
Su Zheng looked around and was furious: "Translate for me! You don't tell me anything interesting!"
Ye Shuang helped translate it casually, and at the same time looked at Antonis on the other side of the screen and thought hard for a while, and finally gave up helplessly: "I generally don't have much impression of men, but I did live in Kansas three years ago. Something happened to... uh, what the hell are you trying to say?"
Serif's tangled expression was comparable to constipation: "...After causing so much trouble to people, and then forgetting about them without authorization? Antonis, this really seems like something you did."
Ye Shuang didn't have time to translate, so she hurriedly dragged Howard to share her thoughts: "I think Serif has some thoughts about Tony?"
"I don't know about that." Howard squinted his eyes and patted his big belly: "If you didn't take the initiative to say it, I didn't know that you guys still knew Antonis."
Antonis obviously didn't have the patience to chat with a man. Seeing that Serif didn't seem to want to take the initiative to explain his doubts, he simply turned his head and waved at Ye Shuang in the corner of the screen: "Hey! Baby, is the French matter settled? Since If you have caught this thief, come back soon, I miss you!"
"Hurry up, we plan to go back tomorrow." Ye Shuang said smoothly.
"Great!" Antonis rubbed his hands excitedly, and quickly typed on the desktop computer beside him with one hand without looking back: "Then I'll book a ticket for you! Well, do you prefer first class or first class?"
"... business class."
Just kidding, Antonis has never used money to book air tickets, business class is okay, but there are two more guests in first class for no reason, which may cause trouble.
Anthonys flattened his mouth: "Okay then."
Howard looked at Ye Shuang meaningfully: "It seems that you have a good relationship?"
"To put it simply, it's the relationship between the owner and the pet." Ye Shuang said casually.
Su Zheng was depressed: "...and said something I didn't understand."
Serif has never been so small and transparent. He has always had a strong sense of presence in the circle, and the fbi's watch list is the best indicator.
But on this day, when he was rarely willing to sit down and have a good talk with others, whether it was the little girl he had offended before, or the other two who had just slapped him hard before, especially Se In fact, River has been secretly paying attention to Antonis who no one knows... These people all ignored him after a few words.
Yes, all!
The business is gone, the fun is gone, and now even the attention is gone.
Originally, Serif was only slightly moved when he saw Antonis, but when he saw Antonis, he had completely forgotten himself, and he didn't even remember the things that had implicated him, so he just went out and had a bad time in other countries After the happy scene, a subtle unwillingness inevitably rose in Serif's heart.
"...I also want to go to your country." Serif suddenly said.
"Huh?" Ye Shuang didn't realize it: "Our country?"
"Yes!" Serif made a polite gesture, but his tone was not very polite at all: "You have messed up my business, and I happen to have no next plan now... well, I think I can just talk to Antonis Reminiscing about the past."
"Hey! I don't have any old feelings with men!" Antonis was upset.
Ye Shuang looked at Serif and then at Antonis, and suddenly felt that the relationship between the two seemed delicate.
