Jiang Chen smiled faintly and began speaking, "When I first pointed out that this painting was a fake, I had no idea it contained a hidden painting within. It was only later that I learned of it."
The Ye family members paused, nodding to themselves in agreement. Indeed, the technique of concealing a painting within another wasn't something that could be easily discerned without close inspection.
But Jiang Chen continued, "However, even if I had known it was a painting within a painting back then, I still would have fought for it."
Ye Tianming shouted, "See, everyone? He did it on purpose!"
Grandpa Ye frowned and asked Jiang Chen, "Why would you fight for it?"
"Because at the time, I didn't know he was a member of the Ye family. To have a good gift for Grandpa's birthday, something that could bring him good fortune, of course I would fight for it," Jiang Chen said as if it were the most natural thing in the world.
