Chapter 110

~4 min read 745 words

Gu Lao did not believe Gu Cheng's words.

However, since he had already promised Gu Cheng, it was impossible to call a halt right at the beginning.

Anyway, there was nothing to do in the morning, so he would just stay here and accompany Gu Cheng, letting this kid properly get a clear look at that young girl.

It had to be said, that young girl was indeed very pretty.

She was the type that these young kids would like.

It was just that she didn't look like someone who worked in this line of business at all; she didn't have that steady feeling.

When the other two people also gave their answers to the three interviewers.

The three of them then went to check the correctness of the answers.

The first ones they looked at were those of the other two people; they placed Shu Xia's answer at the very bottom, as people in their line of work had to be rigorous, and one could not have a joking heart when treating every antique; since Shu Xia used a joking attitude to handle the interview, then she did not deserve their respect.

The two people beside Shu Xia both had somewhat stiff expressions.

It was said that Gu Lao's team had strict requirements for recruiting people.

Now it seemed it was all true.

Just looking at these items alone, the fakes could pass for the real thing; if they hadn't also been working in this line for several years, they probably wouldn't have been able to find the fakes.

When they saw the two people's answers, all three of them had an expression of "as expected."

Back when they had just joined the team, they were all like this too, unable to identify all the fakes.

Many items were crafted too realistically; one could say they were almost exactly the same as the real ones.

Only then did they look at Shu Xia's answer.

At first, they didn't think much of it; after all, the answer Shu Xia gave was too fast.

Shu Xia's expression was natural and relaxed, with no sign of nervousness.

But Gu Cheng, who was in the monitoring room, held his breath; he was nervous to death.

Gu Lao glanced at Gu Cheng, "What are you being nervous for?"

"I'm not nervous at all. Shu Xia is someone with real ability; she isn't nervous, so what do I have to be nervous about?" he said stubbornly.

Gu Lao snorted; from the surveillance, that girl really seemed calm and composed, not flustered or chaotic, without the slightest sign of nervousness, though he didn't know if it was just a facade.

After the three of them looked over Shu Xia's answer, they looked at each other, all revealing expressions of disbelief.

They were all correct.

Every single fake had been found!

Ever since they joined the team, they had never met anyone who could come in and look at these things for the first time without making mistakes!

If it were someone who had stayed in the team for a few years, they would definitely be able to identify them, but this young girl was in her first interview.

Seeing the three of them staring at her, Shu Xia smiled and asked, "Is there a problem with my answers?"

"No."

It was precisely because there was no problem that there was a problem.

Fortunately, all three of them could manage to keep a straight face, and one of them said, "Follow me, and enter the next round of the interview."

One of them took the three people's answers and walked quickly to the monitoring room.

In the monitoring room, Gu Cheng saw this scene, and his heart tightened again.

What kind of expressions did those three people have?

Even if she hadn't found the fakes, so what?

Shu Xia was already very impressive; if one had to blame someone, blame his grandfather for making those things so realistic they could pass for the real thing.

"Do you still want to keep watching?" Gu Lao asked.

Gu Cheng tightened his face and said, "Of course I want to watch, let you see Shu Xia's ability to restore antiques with your own eyes. Those fake things of yours are made too realistically; it's normal for Shu Xia not to recognize them."

Watching Gu Cheng still being stubborn, Gu Lao was speechless beyond words; he really didn't know what to say about his grandson anymore.
