CHAPTER 210: CHAPTER 210: IT’S EXCELLENT

When Jiang Xue saw Housekeeper Lin waiting at the door of the room for her, she immediately understood that Mr. Mu had clearly informed the front desk beforehand.

"Young Madam, you’re here. The master is waiting for you inside," Lin Zian said happily upon seeing Jiang Xue. He hadn’t expected her to come so early.

"Thank you, Uncle!" Jiang Xue thanked him with a smile and then entered the room.

Inside, Mr. Mu was indeed waiting for Jiang Xue. He had gotten up early today, unsure of when she would arrive, so he was waiting here from the morning.

"Jiang Xue, you’re here. Sit down!" Mr. Mu invited Jiang Xue to sit down, then looked at Lin Zian standing nearby and said, "This is Lin Zian, my housekeeper. You can call him Housekeeper Lin in the future."

"Hello, Housekeeper Lin!" Jiang Xue smiled at Housekeeper Lin, then turned her gaze to Mr. Mu and said, "Mr. Mu, I came a bit early; I hope I didn’t disturb your rest?"

"Not at all, I usually get up early. But how come you’re here so early? Where is the child, why didn’t you bring them along?"

"The child’s grandparents are taking care of them. I’m here today to express my gratitude to you," Jiang Xue said as she retrieved a rectangular box from a bag beside her. Inside the box was a piece of calligraphy she had written.

"Mr. Mu, I don’t have much else to offer. This is a piece of my calligraphy; I hope you won’t find it unworthy."

"How could I? Although I’ve only recently arrived in Xu City, I’ve heard a bit about you. A rising star in the calligraphy and painting world, just one of your pieces can sell for hundreds of thousands. It’s my honor that you would gift me one."

"Mr. Mu, you’re too kind." Jiang Xue smiled as she pushed the box toward Mr. Mu, then said, "Mr. Mu, if you don’t have any other matters, I’ll take my leave."

"In such a hurry? Can’t you sit for a bit longer?" Mr. Mu slightly frowned upon hearing Jiang Xue was leaving. He wanted to converse more with her, to have a chat.

"No, my father is still in the hospital, and I need to replace my mother there." Jiang Xue apologized with a sincere expression. If not for having to go to the hospital, she could have spent more time with Mr. Mu.

"I see; in that case, I won’t hold you back. I’ll be staying in Xu City for a while longer. If you get free time, please come see me."

"Alright!" Jiang Xue agreed with a smile and then stood up. Before leaving, she said to Mr. Mu, "If you have time, you should take a stroll. Xu City has many places worth visiting."

"Sure, I will." Mr. Mu agreed with a smile and then asked Housekeeper Lin to escort Jiang Xue out.

Housekeeper Lin escorted Jiang Xue all the way outside the hotel before returning. When he returned to the room, he saw Mr. Mu eagerly looking at a calligraphic artwork spread out on the table.

"Master, what is this?" Lin Zian approached, and upon seeing the writing on the table, he instantly felt a refreshing sense envelop him.

In just a moment, he understood the invaluable nature of this artwork.

"This is the calligraphy Jiang Xue just gifted. It’s truly a masterpiece. No wonder those old scholars say her writing is so unique—it truly is," Mr. Mu said as he carefully put away the piece. He decided it should be hung in the study.

"Since it’s written by the Young Madam, it’s naturally excellent," Lin Zian agreed with a smile. No wonder her calligraphy commands such high prices. This is indeed a rare piece of art. And it’s not just the text, but also the complete sense of ease it imparts to the viewer.
