Future News: My Phone Mutated
42 Special Painting
"Get a proper job as soon as possible and don't do this kind of immoral work again."
After saying this, Lin Bai ignored the bodyguards and left on his own.
Until they were sure that Lin Bai had really left, the bodyguards finally calmed down and felt relieved that they had saved their lives.
Lin Bai, on the other hand, took a taxi to the airport and changed to the earliest flight to Dragon City.
As soon as he landed and turned on his phone, he received two messages from Yu Jinmo.
The first message was a bereaved emoji asking for comfort.
Later on, Yu Jinmo probably saw that Lin Bai had not replied so she asked if Lin Bai was busy.
She did not send any more messages, probably because she was afraid of disturbing Lin Bai.
Lin Bai immediately replied, "I just saw it. What's wrong with you? Are you unhappy?"
Yu Jinmo immediately replied, "Yeah, I got rejected. I'm really sad and vexed."
Lin Bai quickly comforted her and asked about the situation at the same time.
It turned out that the main person Yu Jianhao made friends with during his trip to Dragon City this time was a big shot called Ye Weijun.
He was an important figure in the capital's upper class circle.
Not only Ye Weijun himself, but his children and grandchildren also had a great influence in the political and business circles.
Any family or enterprise that wanted to develop in the capital could not avoid Ye Weijun and the Ye family behind him.
However, only a few people were able to successfully build a relationship with him in the end.
Yu Jinmo said gloomily, "In order to meet Old Master Ye, Father had to rely on many connections. It was not easy for someone like him to accept the recommendation."
"In the end, we excitedly brought gifts to visit him, but they said that Old Master Ye wasn't feeling well and didn't want to see any guests."
"We came all the way here, but we couldn't even meet him. We wasted so many favors and money..."
Lin Bai comforted him, "For a family like the Ye family, there are countless people who want to get close to them, so it's normal for them to avoid meeting others."
"Don't be depressed. You might have a chance in the future."
Yu Jinmo was still a little depressed.
"Yeah, I hope so. Let's not talk about it for now. Dad called me. Let's talk about it tonight."
"Okay."
Lin Bai was about to take a taxi to the venue when he saw a notification that suddenly popped up on his screen.
The title was --[Brought Together By Fate And A Painting: Young Lawyer Becomes Ye Weijun's grandson]
Lin Bai was stunned.
"Ye Weijun?"
Yu Jinmo did not even have a chance to meet Ye Weijun.
In the blink of an eye, the Future News app had sent him such news. The meaning behind it could be understood with just a thought.
"Just in time. I was just wondering how to help them connect the dots."
Lin Bai opened the news and read it carefully.
It turned out that Ye Weijun had a granddaughter named Ye Qingyan. She was a painter with an avant-garde art style.
Ye Qingyan had been very talented in art since she was young. She had won many painting awards at a young age.
However, as she got older, Ye Qingyan's personality became more and more independent.
Her overly strong and assertive personality made her stand out in the field of art. At the same time, it also made her conflict with her family deepen.
The Ye family was very traditional, especially Old Master Ye, who stubbornly believed that only politics and business were the right paths while the so-called arts was all unorthodox.
So, he used a lot of tricks to try to force Ye Qingyan to return to the right path and live a normal life.
However, Ye Qingyan's resistance was unusually intense, and in the end, she did not hesitate to publish a statement in the newspaper to announce that she would sever her ties with the Ye family.
Ye Weijun was a person who cared a lot about his pride. After seeing his granddaughter's statement, he was extremely angry and sad.
Hence, he strictly forbade the Ye family from contacting Ye Qingyan and giving her any help.
Of course, Ye Qingyan had also stubbornly never asked her parents or other relatives for help.
Thus, the two parties completely severed all ties with each other.
The severance lasted for more than ten years.
During this period, Ye Qingyan became an internationally renowned new artist.
However, because the style of her paintings was too avant-garde and did not conform to the norms, it was difficult for her to sell her paintings. She also had a very difficult life.
Later, she, unfortunately, suffered from a terminal illness and exhausted her savings. In the end, she died at a young age.
It was not until after her death that Ye Weijun learned that she was sick.
But it was too late.
Ye Weijun was filled with regret and felt that he should not have forcefully interfered in his granddaughter's life.
Perhaps it was guilt that made him regret it, but at the same time, he finally acknowledged Ye Qingyan's artistic attainments.
It was a pity that at that time, all the paintings that Ye Qingyan left behind were auctioned off to pay off her debts and the medical expenses that she owed when she was alive.
Old Master Ye used a lot of connections and money to buy back most of the paintings.
However, a small number of them had been sent abroad and could not be recovered.
Among them was the last painting created by Ye Qingyan.
She chose not to adopt her usual abstract style of the painting and used extremely bright and warm colors to paint a warm and happy picture.
The painting was of her childhood; when she was building a castle with her grandfather on the beach.
It was the happiest and sweetest memory of her life. It was also the deep nostalgia she felt for her family when she was about to die.
Old Master Ye had never seen the painting in real life. He had only seen a photo of it.
He was already in his seventies. Holding the photo, he cried bitterly.
He swore that he would buy the original painting no matter what.
Unfortunately, the identity of the buyer of the painting was a mystery. No matter how hard Ye Weijun investigated, he could not find any clues.
The painting never appeared in the market again.
Therefore, the painting became the greatest regret of Old Master Ye's life.
It was said in the news that the painting appeared at today's auction for some unknown reason and was recognized by a young lawyer present.
The young lawyer bought the painting at a high price of 500 million and then gave it to Old Master Ye Weijun.
The old man was very touched. Not only did he give the young lawyer 500 million yuan out of gratitude, but he also acknowledged the young lawyer as his god-grandson and gave him a lot of support.
It was not difficult to guess that the young lawyer would definitely rise up in the future and become nouveau riche in the capital.
Lin Bai looked at the photo of the young lawyer in the news and said in a low voice, "I'm sorry, I'm afraid your path to the top is about to be ruined."
No matter who it was, as long as they took a photo of such a special painting, they would receive the gratitude and support of Ye Weijun.
It was such a rare opportunity. If Lin Bai didn't know about it, it would be fine but since he knew about it, how could he let it go?
Yu Jianhao was Lin Bai's future father-in-law. Helping him build a relationship with the Ye family was in fact helping Lin Bai himself.
"500 million, right? It's just enough to buy it."
"I want this painting."
Lin Bai muttered to himself. He had already made up his mind. No matter what, he had to buy Ye Qingyan's posthumous painting tonight.
Then, he would think of a way to hand it over to Yu Jianhao so that he could send it to Ye Weijun's grandfather.
In this way, the 500 million token of appreciation, Ye Weijun's help, and support would all belong to the Yu family.
