Huo Sining didn't speak. Zhou Shitao had his reasons for bringing this up; otherwise, he wouldn't have mentioned it for no reason.
Sure enough, seeing that Huo Sining remained silent, Zhou Shitao didn't hold back and directly said:
"Here's the thing, in November, there's going to be an international appraisal conference in New York. I heard that those Dongyang people actually intend to exhibit that set of gold-threaded jade burial suit at this international venue. This is obviously an attempt to embarrass our fellow countrymen. No one can tolerate this, so a few old folks have been telling me that someone needs to go and teach those arrogant brats a lesson. You know, I definitely can't find the time, nor can I trek all the way to New York, so I nominated you."
International appraisal conference? Huo Sining frowned; she hadn't agreed to go.
