CHAPTER 614: CHAPTER 614: A CAR HAS BEEN FOLLOWING US

She had just left when a man dressed in black and wearing sunglasses walked into the art studio right behind her.

"Welcome, may I ask if you are here to buy a painting?" Wen Jing hurried forward with a smile to greet the customer.

——

Kindergarten ended at five o’clock, and An Ruo arrived half an hour early. She parked the car, found a cafe nearby, sat down, and slowly sipped a cup of coffee she had ordered.

Just as the coffee was served, Wen Jing called.

"What’s up?" An Ruo answered and asked.

"Sister An, I have some good news for you. Our studio made a huge sale today!"

An Ruo was momentarily stunned, then expectantly asked, "How much did we sell?"

"Right after you left, a gentleman came to buy paintings. He bought all the sketches you painted, selling for a six-figure total. A full two hundred thousand, Sister An, that’s several times more than we’ve made in the past few months."

"That much..." An Ruo frowned in puzzlement, "Why did he only buy the sketches?"

"Because he said he needed sketches, and he also said he would preorder any future paintings. Sister An, sob sob, I regret not learning how to sketch..."

"Did he leave a name and contact information?" she asked again.

"Yes, he left a business card, telling us to contact him whenever we had new work."

"What’s his name?"

"Zhao Mingda."

Zhao Mingda? She didn’t know this person, and there was no one surnamed Zhao among her acquaintances.

Maybe she really had come across a great business deal.

An Ruo hung up the phone, sat for a while longer, and then, seeing it was about time, went to the entrance to pick up her child.

Kangkang came out with his small backpack, followed closely by two girls. The two girls were his classmates, and An Ruo knew them as well.

When the girls reached her, they sweetly said, "Auntie, hello. Auntie, goodbye," then held hands and bounced away.

Kangkang’s expression was serene. An Ruo chuckled and tousled his hair, teasing him, "Sweetheart, you seem quite popular with the girls, huh? They walk with you every day. Do you have a special liking for any of them?"

Kangkang tilted his head and laughed, "I like Mom the most."

An Ruo laughed heartily, knelt down, and kissed his cheek, "Mom likes you the most too."

Kangkang’s smile grew even brighter; he liked to see his mom smile. Her smile was beautiful, and he hoped she would be happy forever.

"Alright, get in the car, let’s go home." An Ruo opened the car door, and the little guy quickly climbed in.

On the way back, she habitually asked him about his day at school. Kangkang answered each question briefly.

After driving for a while, the little one turned his head to look behind them, his small eyebrows slightly furrowed.

"What’s wrong?" An Ruo asked him, puzzled.

"Mom, there’s a car that’s been following us," said Kangkang.

An Ruo quickly glanced behind and saw a black Bentley.
