Reborn As Super Heiress

When she arrived, Huo Sining already knew it would be like this, so she didn’t plan to back down in the face of the bespectacled man’s direct provocation.

Since these people were intent on testing her skills, Huo Sining certainly wouldn’t admit defeat. She was Zhou Shitao’s apprentice, and she couldn’t ruin her master’s reputation here. Weren’t they eager to see her abilities? Then she’d show them something to widen their horizons!

Huo Sining’s expression was proud, and without a second’s hesitation, she directly grabbed the item from the box.

The straightforward move of Huo Sining surprised everyone in the room.

They had expected Huo Sining to argue with the bespectacled man, but unexpectedly, she didn’t say a word and took action immediately.

Director Li and the balding man with a beer belly exchanged glances, somewhat puzzled.

The bespectacled man stood with arms crossed, looking as though he was waiting to see how she would do, but this stance lasted less than three seconds because Huo Sining’s next move hit him right in the face.

The bespectacled man was intent on embarrassing Huo Sining, so he had presented all sorts of items — famous kiln porcelain, ceramics, bronze objects, scholar’s four jewels, coins, paintings, books, and weapons, covering all categories. Seeing these, Huo Sining felt amused but then her lips curled slightly as she thought of teasing this bespectacled man.

With this thought, she boldly switched to Heavenly Eye mode. Without any pause, she sorted through the ten or so antiques in the first box, separating the genuine from the fake ones;

After finishing with one box, she moved on to the second. By the time she reached the third box, the bespectacled man was dumbfounded, exclaiming urgently, ”Wait a minute!”

Huo Sining paused her hands, raised her head, and arched an eyebrow at the bespectacled man, ”Well?”

Huo Sining had just categorized the items in the two boxes without stating which were real or fake, leaving the others in the room somewhat confused, but in the bespectacled man’s heart, there was a storm of shock, his whole being astounded.

Others might not know, but the bespectacled man was well aware.

Many of the items in these boxes were his proud creations over the years, with their authenticity clear to him, so when Huo Sining separated them, he knew what it meant.

Initially, he intended to test Huo Sining, but seeing her identify all items in the two boxes within three minutes, his eyes widened like cow eyes, his mouth agape enough to swallow an egg, his expression towards Huo Sining was truly one of shock and awe.

This wasn’t the first time he heard about appraisers relying on intuition, but previously, his forgeries had fooled countless experts, leading him never to believe in intuition. That’s why when he heard Huo Sining say appraising relied on touch and intuition, he felt repulsive and chose to confront her directly, not willing to show any courtesy to a young girl.

But now he had to admit, his previous thoughts were wrong.

This girl, with just a light touch, instantly picked out ten or so fake-to-look-real items from his box, which was truly astounding, even he had to admire her.

No wonder this girl could be taken as Zhou Shitao’s apprentice. An unknown young girl with such skills at a young age is indeed talented. Though the bespectacled man was proud, this encounter made him realize talents truly exist in this world, losing any previous disrespect towards Huo Sining.

”Miss Huo, I’m convinced! Director Li, there’s no need to test further. Miss Huo was able to appraise all the items in my two boxes in just three minutes, demonstrating her extraordinary capability. Elder Zhou indeed sent her over to help us sincerely!”

At this moment, the bespectacled man’s face was filled with admiration and awe, his gaze at Huo Sining softened considerably.

Huo Sining realized that Director Li hadn’t taken her to the museum but to the Public Security Bureau instead, originally intending to test her, only to be preempted by this bespectacled man.

After the bespectacled man’s revelation, Director Li’s smile turned a bit awkward but quickly recovered, earnestly explaining to Huo Sining, ”Miss Huo, I sincerely apologize. This matter is indeed tricky, so we are forced to be exceptionally cautious. It’s not prejudice against you; I hope you understand.”

Huo Sining nodded, ”I understand. Director Li, you don’t need to explain this to me. If everything is fine with you, let’s head to the museum first. We’ve already delayed enough here.”

Director Li nodded, ”Yes, yes, let’s go. With Miss Huo here, surely nothing will go wrong this time.”

As he spoke, Director Li was about to have Feng Qing lead the way, while Feng Qing and He Ming were still dumbstruck by Huo Sining, astounded by the bespectacled man’s earlier speech.

Appraising two boxes of antiques in three minutes, what kind of concept is this? Though they didn’t belong to the antique circles, they’d seen antique appraisal shows. On TV, experts appraise items with magnifiers and glasses, taking over ten minutes to examine one antique. Yet here was Huo Sining, who simply touched an item with her hand and appraised it without saying a word?

Gosh, is this even possible?!

Feng Qing and He Ming glanced at each other, their eyes brimming with shock and disbelief.

Despite their astonishment, they still had their duties to perform. Hearing Director Li say to take Huo Sining to the museum, they both hastily nodded and stood up to open the door for Huo Sining, eyes full of excitement leading her out. It differed entirely from their expressions when receiving Huo Sining at the airport. At the airport, they were very dissatisfied with Huo Sining; now, they seemed eager to find a temple to enshrine this living Bodhisattva.

Huo Sining remained calm all the way, resting with closed eyes in the car until it stopped at the museum door.

Seeing this museum, entirely different in its quiet than Taicheng Museum, Huo Sining felt puzzled, taking a few seconds to remember the news saying that due to the antique swap incident’s significant impact, the H Province Museum was completely closed. Until this matter was thoroughly investigated and explained to the public, it would not open to citizens.
