C16 Reward a Set of Jiangjing Real Estate!

After the system's selection appeared in Shen Hao's mind, he had already made up his mind.

"I'll take the second option!"

Shen Hao's interest lay not in the system's reward.

Before he even started painting, he had promised to give this piece to Xu Tingting!

"Mr. Shen, please, say yes!"

Xu Tingting, seeing Shen Hao fall silent, grew anxious.

A painting in exchange for a watch worth millions seemed like an incredible deal to her!

"Mr. Shen, please agree. It's a fantastic offer!"

Gu Yuan, standing nearby, also pressed Shen Hao to accept Ivan Alpa's offer.

Both Gu Yuan and Xu Tingting were convinced that Shen Hao would accept Ivan Alpa's proposal.

However, to their surprise, Shen Hao turned down the deal!

"I'm sorry, Mr. Alpa, I cannot accept this deal!"

Shen Hao shook his head slightly and declared, "I cannot give you this painting."

Upon hearing Shen Hao's words, both Gu Yuan and Xu Tingting stared at him in astonishment.

They couldn't fathom why Shen Hao would reject such a lucrative offer.

In the video, Ivan was equally baffled.

"Mr. Shen, did I not offer enough?"

"I'm willing to increase my bid!"

"Mr. Shen, I'm truly enamored with this painting!"

"How much? Mr. Shen, just name your price, and I'll buy it!"

Shen Hao remained composed and spoke gently, "Mr. Alpa, it's not about the money."

"I've already promised to give this painting to someone else."

Ivan Alpa paused, his expression turning to one of disappointment.

"That's truly unfortunate!"

Ivan Alpa said with reluctance, "Mr. Shen, your artistic talent has won me over!"

"Should you have any new works in the future, please reach out to me!"

Shen Hao smiled and nodded in response, "Certainly!"

After exchanging contact details, Shen Hao ended the video call.

"Mr. Shen, why did you turn down the deal? It's such a waste!"

Gu Yuan looked at Shen Hao, puzzled by his actions.

Xu Tingting, also perplexed, watched Shen Hao, eager to understand his reasoning.

"I've already mentioned that the painting has been given away!"

Shen Hao said with a casual shrug.

Gu Yuan and Xu Tingting exchanged glances. "But you just finished creating it."

Shen Hao chuckled at the remark and glanced at the bewildered Xu Tingting.

"Have you forgotten?"

"The materials for this oil painting were yours."

"I told you before, once the painting was done, it would be yours!"

Xu Tingting's mouth fell open in realization.

She remembered that Shen Hao had indeed said that.

A second later, Xu Tingting spoke up, her voice tinged with urgency, "Mr. Shen, I had no idea your artistic talents were so extraordinary!"

"And that this painting would be so valuable!"

"Had I known, I would never have agreed!"

Xu Tingting hung her head, her voice subdued.

She felt responsible for Shen Hao's financial loss and was consumed with guilt.

Shen Hao's lips curled into a smile, and he patted Xu Tingting's shoulder reassuringly.

"Don't worry about it!"

"It's just a painting!"

"If I said it's yours, then it's yours!"

Gu Yuan, observing from the side, let out a wistful sigh.

"Mr. Shen's generosity is truly remarkable!"

Turning to the still-guilty Xu Tingting, he encouraged, "Xu, just accept it!"

"As Mr. Shen said, the painting is priceless to us, but for Mr. Shen, it's simply a painting!"

"And do you really think Mr. Shen would be concerned about a watchmaking fee in the tens of millions?"

With Gu Yuan's encouragement, Xu Tingting looked up at Shen Hao once more.

"Mr. Shen, you're not upset with me?"

Shen Hao smiled gently. "Of course not!"

"In fact, I should thank you for lending me the materials for the oil painting!"

Xu Tingting beamed, her smile revealing a charming tooth.

"Mr. Shen, lending you the painting materials was my greatest luck!"

"The random mission is complete, and the reward is being distributed..."

"Host, please select the delivery location for the river view apartment's property deed!"

After a moment's thought, Shen Hao decided inwardly, "Place it on the passenger seat of my sports car!"

"The reward has been distributed. Host, please check!"

In the parking lot of a bustling Florence shopping district, a vibrant red property certificate suddenly appeared on the passenger seat of a luxury supercar.

Simultaneously, Xu Tingting's gaze towards Shen Hao shifted.

"Mr. Shen, the custom Patek Philippe you ordered will take some time to arrive."

Gu Yuan addressed Shen Hao with a respectful tone, "We'll notify you the moment it arrives!"

Shen Hao nodded in response, "Alright, I'll be waiting for your notification."

After Shen Hao departed from the Patek Philippe boutique, Gu Yuan and Xu Tingting finally exhaled a long sigh of relief.

They exchanged glances, both feeling as though the day's events were beyond belief.

"Today was just like a dream!" Xu Tingting whispered to herself.

"Yes," Gu Yuan agreed, sighing before turning an envious gaze towards Xu Tingting. "I can't believe you received such a valuable oil painting! You'd make a fortune if you sold it, wouldn't you?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Tingting quickly spread her arms to protect the painting. "This was a gift from Mr. Shen. I wouldn't sell it for any amount!"

Understanding the nuances of social interactions, Gu Yuan walked away with a smile.

Xu Tingting turned back to examine the oil painting Shen Hao had given her, a warm blush spreading across her cheeks. "I need to show this to my cousin and make her jealous!"

She snapped a few pictures with her phone and sent them straight to her cousin, Xu Wanqing.

"Sister Wanqing, isn't this oil painting beautiful?"

Within moments, Xu Tingting's phone was flooded with notification sounds.

"Wow! This painting is absolutely incredible!"

"It's surely a masterpiece!"

"Tingting, where did you find this? It seems freshly painted!"

"Please tell me where it is; I must see it for myself!"

After reading all the messages, Xu Tingting's smile grew even wider.

"Sister Wanqing, someone special gave me this painting!"

"Aren't you jealous?"

"What?"

"Tingting, where are you? I'm on my way!"
