บท 359: The video

By her side, Muyang had curiously and patiently waited as she detached the painting without inquiring into her actions. She always had a reason for everything that she did. That was a fact he understood quite well by now.

Her sudden interest in the Hua auction had intrigued him and her determination to acquire the lotus blessing peaked that intrigue. Watching her retrieve a small black memory card from the inside of the frame answered all the questions he had in his mind.

He was not sticking around simply because of this one curiosity, he also wanted to clear up any lingering doubts that she could possibly have about his alleged former nonexistent betrothal. She would not be satisfied until he gave her his side of the story.

He watched in silence as she retrieved the contents of the memory card from it and when she hit that play button on the laptop, he dragged his chair over and joined her to view the footage.
