Ma Liwen's expression darkened upon hearing Huo Sining's refusal. Seeing Huo Sining about to turn and leave, he became anxious at once, "Two hundred thousand! I'll pay two hundred thousand for your set of porcelain bowls!"
Huo Sining turned back with a smile that was not quite a smile and glanced at Ma Liwen before asking, "Professor Ma, as a reputable figure in the antique circle, though an expert in ancient paintings, you ought to understand the true value of enamel color porcelain from the peak of the Qing Dynasty. If it were you, would you be willing to sell it for two hundred thousand?"
Huo Sining's words plainly pointed out that there was indeed genuine famille rose enamel in the set of bowls. Ma Liwen was shocked, furious, and, above all, filled with frustration.
