Charles also realized it.
Desperate times call for desperate measures.
He thought to himself: even if it’s ruined, a fake one will do!
As long as it’s delivered to the museum, whatever happens next has nothing to do with him.
Mr. Charles became eager.
He treated Su Ruanruan as an honored guest and asked for her help.
Su Ruanruan sat on the couch, sipping her coffee.
She smiled slightly and negotiated with Charles: "If I can help Mr. Charles through this difficulty, would Mr. Charles also fulfill my wish?"
Charles found himself in a difficult position.
Even if Miss Su helps him through the difficulty, exchanging an advanced project for a mere fake.
That would be too good a deal for Su Ruanruan!
He hesitated, weighing his options.
Mr. Charles, undoubtedly shrewd, decided to wait and see.
If he can really pull off the deception, he will then make some demands of Miss Su.
There are many Eastern beauties, Miss Su must have quite a few candidates!
A few beauties and a fake artwork in exchange for an advanced project wouldn’t be a loss!

At that moment, Mrs. Yin was bandaging her wounds on the other side.
Having lost the project and her influence, her hatred for Su Ruanruan reached its peak.
She decided to let everything collapse.
If the Yin Family could not have the project, neither would Su Ruanruan.
Once the painting arrived, she would spread the news.
She wanted to tell the world that the Van Gogh masterpiece was destroyed, and Su Ruanruan was using a counterfeit to deceive.
By then, Su Ruanruan’s reputation would be ruined!
Mrs. Yin’s eyes gleamed with venom.
Su Ruanruan continued sipping her coffee, noticing her.
She smiled lightly and did not take Mrs. Yin seriously.
The tricks played by Mrs. Yin were outdated!
Everyone harboring their own thoughts.
About an hour later, Yan Kuan entered the hall with 20 security personnel.
All in uniform.
Each armed.
Very strict, and quite the spectacle.
A few women rolled their eyes: "It’s just a fake, such a big fuss!"
Another lightly waved her fan: "Miss Su is from Jiangcheng, people from Jiangcheng are the best at playing tricks!"
These whispers reached Su Ruanruan’s ears.
She was not angered.
Instead, she acted with even more grandeur.
Yan Kuan arrived, he had the security form a circle to protect the famous painting.
The oil painting was taken out of its case.
Stunningly beautiful.
It looked exactly like the original.
Charles’s eyes lit up, unable to stop himself from saying: "It’s so similar, so similar! Eastern craftsmen, truly marvelous!"
Su Ruanruan found it amusing internally.
This was actually the original!
This Mr. Charles was too foolish!
Yet she maintained a serious face: "This is President Bao’s collection from YR Group, acquired for 100 million US dollars."
Su Ruanruan stood in front of the masterpiece.
She smiled: "If Mr. Charles desires it, I am willing to sell it at the original price, plus that high-end project!"
She generously stated: "We are international friends, we should help and love each other."
Charles was shocked.
The eminent ladies present also disbelieved.
Just a fake, how could it be worth 100 million US dollars?
Charles was torn.
The price, he felt, was negotiable!
Even if the painting looked similar, it was still just a counterfeit; Miss Su couldn’t possibly be that greedy!
The project, he could give her, just need to arrange for a few more beauties to entertain!
Mr. Charles made up his mind.
He wanted to negotiate the deal privately with Su Ruanruan.
Su Ruanruan knew him inside out, how could she not anticipate this?
She insisted on 100 million US dollars, along with the project.
She told Mr. Charles: "You’ve lost the Van Gogh masterpiece; if you can’t compensate, your position on the corporate board will be terminated, and you might even end up in prison."
Cold sweat broke out on Charles’s forehead.
Everything Su Ruanruan said was true.
After much consideration, he finally decided: "I am willing to trade with Miss Su!"
Everyone was stunned.
Miss Su’s tactics were remarkable!
But, the twist came... Mrs. Yin slowly stood up, like a cockroach that couldn’t be killed.
She held up her phone, sneering: "Your deal won’t succeed, I’ve already released the news, the Van Gogh masterpiece is destroyed, what Miss Su holds is a fake!"
Mrs. Yin’s voice was fierce.
She told Su Ruanruan: "In City B, no one has ever beaten me! Su Ruanruan, you are no exception!"
She thought, Su Ruanruan would panic.
But she miscalculated again.
Su Ruanruan smiled slightly.
She said: "Real or fake, just invite a few experts here, and they’ll know at a glance."
