"Lady Tong, look at this vase. It's definitely a genuine piece from the Kangxi period. Here is the appraisal certificate from Master Chen. We would never deceive you," said the owner of the antique shop to Tong Li.
Tong Li felt dubious as she examined the vase. She was not versed in this area and was only buying the antique vase to please a shareholder in the company. She didn't mind the high price, but she was afraid of offending someone by inadvertently purchasing a counterfeit.
The vase was pretty indeed, and it even came with a certificate from the expert, so it should be genuine, right? Tong Li reached for her card to make the purchase.
Ling Batian, who had been observing for a while, timely interrupted her, "Miss, this vase is fake."
