Chapter 9 Beautiful Misunderstanding

  After finishing reading the book, thank you.

  Counterfeiting ability?

  Shangguan was shocked, what kind of ability is this? It sounds like it has some meaning.

  "Absorbed." Even culinary skills have been absorbed, how can fake abilities be missed.

  "Absorption successful, host possesses tenth All-Ability fifth item - Fabrication! Current rank F."

  Is faking it a big deal? Officer Nangeng was overjoyed and hastily checked the sub-items of faking, and when he saw them, he was delighted.

  There are five sub-items of counterfeit goods, namely paintings and calligraphy, porcelain, wood carvings, jade articles, and bronze wares. The ability to counterfeit means exactly what it says, the fake products that flood the antique market were made by those who counterfeit, and it is precisely because these fakes circulate in the market that the antique market has added one act after another of tears and laughter.

  Those who are crying are those whose appraisal skills are not up to par and have been deceived, while those who are laughing are the ones who fake and sell fakes.

  Although those who counterfeit and sell fake items are despicable, once you've entered this line of work, you must develop a discerning eye; otherwise, don't bother playing the game. The antique business isn't for everyone to make a living from.

  The place where the ability to counterfeit is stronger than the ability to appreciate is that people who understand appreciation may not be able to counterfeit, but those who counterfeit must understand appreciation. At this time, Shangguan Yan felt that he had acquired some basic abilities in appreciation and counterfeiting.

  Originally only wanted to absorb the ability to appraise treasures, didn't expect to absorb something even better, today's Shangguan is like stepping on dog shit, his luck is flourishing from head to toe.

  Having absorbed the ability to fake, Upper Official was delighted and also a little surprised. Looking at this old man who had lost three fingers, he couldn't believe that an old peddler of cold drinks actually had such talent. Although it's only F-grade, its value lies in being all-around! The five sub-items are all proficient, relying on this skill alone, the old man must not have been an ordinary person when he was young.

  "Old man, what's with your hand?" Unable to contain his curiosity, Shangguan Neng asked.

  "Ah? Hehe..." The old man raised his own hand, looking at the balding parts of his thumb and index finger, a hint of desolation and bleakness flashing in his eyes, with a faint bitter smile: "Alas! Those were things from my youth, no need to mention it!"

  "Oh?" Since it was the old man's sorrow, Officer Wang didn't dare ask more questions. He scratched his head and took out another coin: "Old man, get me another bottle of water."

  Having absorbed the ability to counterfeit, Shangguan Nian's task in the antique market ended perfectly beyond expectations, and his mood was greatly improved. The depressing atmosphere at the beauty center also dissipated a lot.

  Calm down, Shangguan Nian began to think about why Beibei would give herself that kick. From head to toe, she had never done anything wrong to Beibei, and they had always been fine before, so why did it suddenly end up like that?

  The official racked his brains, but after all, his brain was too small and his head wasn't very useful. After returning home, he still couldn't think of a single idea.

  "Headache, don't want to think about it anymore." Rubbing his temples, Shang Guan Neng walked into his small bedroom with his backpack, took out the few homework books from his bag, and saw the neat handwriting on them. Shang Guan Neng was dazed for a while before shaking his head and starting to copy.

  Bei Bei's handwriting is not only beautiful and elegant, but also seems to exude a refreshing fragrance that invigorates the mind. Every time I turn the page, it's a treat for my nose.

  Upper official Nengren gradually stopped writing, hesitated for a moment, put the homework book in the drawer, left a note for his family, carried his schoolbag, and rode his bicycle out again.

  What's the big deal about A-level knife hiding in a smile? Anyway, that was two years of school together. Although she gave me a kick and made me sing a sad song for a long time, strawberry giant, the favor of doing homework is real, I'm just an old man, no need to be serious with a girl.

  At five thirty in the afternoon, Shang Guan was able to put his bicycle in the parking lot at the entrance of the beauty center, wiping the sweat from his face and gazing at the beautiful and fashionable signboard. He took a deep breath and stepped inside.

  The first floor hall, although it's a bit late, there are still many beautiful ladies sitting on the seats receiving beauty services from beauticians. Before being led in by Bei Bei, Shang Guan Neng Ren didn't feel anything, but now he feels a little nervous.

  There are too many women, especially beauties here. It's normal to think about it, beauty salons are places where women become more beautiful after all. Even if ordinary women come in, they become beauties when they leave, which shows the high quality of women here. A young man like me, facing so many beauties alone, is just like Tang Seng entering the Cave of Desire, feeling like I'm in a state of nirvana.

  Fortunately, Shang Guan Nengren didn't feel awkward for long. A woman in her twenties came down from upstairs and saw Shang Guan Nengren with a hint of surprise on her face. She then walked over to him with a gentle smile, the high heels clicking against the floor, producing a crisp and pleasant sound.

  Standing in front of Mr. Shang, the woman had a smile on her face: "Aren't you the person who came with Miss at noon!"

  "Ah?" Seeing this woman, Niu Nai seemed to have some impression. His eyes swept across the woman's chest and saw a name tag on her left breast pocket. He knew she was an employee of Xiang Beibei's company. He quickly nodded and said: "Hello, is Xiang Beibei still here?"

  "Miss!" The woman smiled slightly and said: "The miss left around three o'clock. Is there anything I need to pass on?"

  "He's gone......" Shang Guan Neng let out a sigh of relief, but also felt a little lost. He dryly chuckled twice, took off the backpack he was carrying, unzipped it, and pulled out a pink music box.

  This music box was what he had spent a long time selecting in the mall, it's quite pretty and suitable for girls. The price is 41 yuan and 50 cents. Xiang Neng brought 50 yuan with him when he went out this morning. He spent 1 yuan parking his bike at the antique market, was fined 5 yuan for spitting, and bought two bottles of mineral water for 2 yuan. After buying this music box, all that's left on Xiang Neng is a 50 cent coin, not even enough to take the bus.

  "Ah... " Shang Guan's eyes were filled with a hint of sincerity as he handed the music box to the woman, saying: "Can you help me pass this on to Xiang BeiBei?"

  The woman looked at the beautiful music box, her eyes softened a bit, took it over, and smiled slightly: "I will pass it on to Miss."

  "Hmm." Shangguan Nian's expression turned slightly awkward, and he said, "By the way, help me say something to her. I don't know why she's angry, but maybe it's because I did something wrong. Although I don't know what it is, I'll still apologize to her."

  The woman's eyes became even softer and she smiled slightly, saying: "Alright, I'll convey it to him word for word."

  "Thank you, thank you for your trouble." Upper official repeatedly expressed gratitude.

  "You're welcome." The woman smiled and looked at Nangong Shibai's gaze became softer: "Is there anything else you need me to convey?"

  Shangguan Nengren shook his head: "That's all, I'll leave it to you then. You're busy, I won't disturb you."

  "Alright, take care." The woman smiled and saw Nangeng out the door, watching him ride away before returning to the main hall and heading upstairs.

  Third floor, still that single room, towards Beibei leaning against the window, gently looking in the direction of Shangguan Neng's departure, the gloom on his face disappeared, and his usual smile returned.

  Knock knock knock.

  "Come in." Turning around to Beibei, walking to the sofa and sitting down, the door was pushed open, and the woman who had received the music box walked in.

  "Miss." The woman said in a soft and respectful tone: "I've sent your classmate away."

  "Mmm." She leaned back against the sofa, her black hair cascading down the back of it, looking like a princess from a comic book with an innocent and beautiful expression.

  "What did he come for?" Before that, Xiang Beibei had been standing in front of the window, looking at the pedestrians and vehicles coming and going on the street. When Shang Guan Neng was still far away, walking towards this side, he was caught by Xiang Beibei for the first time. With a grievance in her heart, she immediately ordered Zhang Xin, the woman who received Shang Guan Neng, to drive him away.

  But after Zhang Xin went downstairs, her thoughts about Bei Bei began to turn around, realizing that Shang Guan Neng's visit this time didn't seem to be a bad thing. Unfortunately, when she finally understood, she saw from the window Shang Guan Neng riding away on his bicycle.

  Noticing that Beibei's mood seemed to have improved a lot, Zhang Xin felt relieved and took out the pink music box that had been hidden behind her back, smiling: "Miss, he has come to give you a gift."

  When BeiBei saw the music box, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, and she said, "How did he know to give me a gift?"

  "I'm not quite sure about this, but he had another message for me to pass on." Zhang Xin handed the music box to Xiang Beibei.

  Bai Bei's eyebrows furrowed slightly as she said, "Don't beat around the bush, just say it!"

  "Yes." Zhang Xin smiled slightly and said, "'I don't know why she's angry, but maybe I did something wrong. Although I don't know what it is, I'll still say sorry to her.'"

  "After a pause, Zhang Xin said in a low voice: 'He said so.'"

  Toward Beibei stroked the small music box, with a hint of a smile at the corner of her mouth, gently opened it, and the birthday melody sounded, Toward Beibei's eyes widened, took a deep breath.

  "He actually knew today was my birthday..." Thinking of Shang Guan Neng's silly face, he narrowed his eyes at Bei Bei and chuckled: "Growing up all these years, this is the first time I've ever received such a cheap birthday gift."

  "It's the thought that counts." Zhang Xin smiled and said.

  "Hehe, it's actually better than before." Xiang smiled brightly at Beibei, just like he used to.

  Looking at Beibei's smile, Zhang Xin hesitated for a moment and said softly: "Miss, is there something special about him?"

  "Anything special?" Turning to Beibei, Zhang Xin glanced at her with a somewhat tense expression. Seeing this, she couldn't help but chuckle and shake her head: "No, he doesn't have anything special about him. His looks are ordinary, his height is ordinary, his figure is ordinary, his personality is ordinary, his family background is ordinary, and his talent is even more ordinary. If you throw him into a crowd, he'll be drowned out in an instant."

  "That......" Zhang Xin originally wanted to ask, why did you bring such an ordinary boy here? But the glance from Beibei earlier made her dare not speak again.

  She narrowed her eyes contentedly, smiled and shifted her gaze to the music box, muttering to herself: "How did he know today was my birthday? I don't think I told anyone."

  At the street corner, Officer Wang was waiting for the red light, but in his heart he thought: "I don't know if Beibei will receive my apology gift? But nowadays music boxes are not that great, instead of getting some piano tunes or something, they get 'Happy Birthday', sigh! Beibei definitely won't like it. Poor me, I only have 50 cents left, tomorrow morning I can only eat at home."

  Some beauty... comes from misunderstanding.
