C6 Chapter 6

"Oh …" "As for the issue of the down payment, I've already thought about it …" When Su Wen heard this, she thought for a moment before saying leisurely, "In a few days, we'll go to uncle's house and ask him to give Cheng Shi the price of the" Mastermind Seiya "he gave me … Just sell it as the down payment for the house! "

"You … That's a famous painting gifted to you by the great painter Cheng! " Wei Tianmin's heart skipped a beat, but his face was as calm as still water, "Selling it like this — don't you think it's a pity?"

"So what if it's a painting? It's only right to 'make the best use of' it early on. Although I'm one of Teacher Cheng's' fans', but I still have to live a good life! "When the time comes, take a picture of that painting as a souvenir!" Su Wen blinked mischievously and smiled. "If we had ordered a house earlier, we would have done some things earlier …"

Wei Tianmin understood what she meant by "things that should be done". The two of them had been in love for two or three years at a leisurely pace — after buying the house, it was not far from the date of their marriage. It was hard to keep everything organized and orderly for Su Wen.

Looking at Su Wen's bright smile, Wei Tianmin felt touched. He chuckled foolishly, unable to find anything to say. However, like an envoy from a ghost, his heart suddenly trembled. It was as if a small wave had appeared in his mind: Shen Hong's beautiful and alluring face suddenly jumped into his thoughts … She looked at him and said, "If she wasn't beautiful, why would Cheng Shi give her such an elegant and exquisite painting?"

All of a sudden, Wei Tianmin felt as if someone poured a bucket of cold water over his head.

Within a few days, Wei Tianmin and Shen Hong met again.

This time, it was at the city's Public Security Bureau's and the "Black Swan Club's" friendly dinner. On that day, in order to support the police department's criminal investigation and upgrading equipment, the "Black Swan Club" donated 800,000 yuan to the police department of the city. "The Public Security Bureau of the city set up a banquet at the" Riverside Hotel "to thank them." "The Black Swan Club" had two representatives. One was their General Manager Wang, and the other was Shen Hong. The city's Public Security Bureau was represented by Vice Chief Zhong, Chen Feng and Wei Tianmin, who were in charge of criminal investigation.

It was obvious that Shen Hong had purposely dressed up for the dinner party: a classically styled, expensive dress, a soft, goose-yellow dress that looked modest, but with a purple bow tied around her waist that made the dress look elegant and noble in its dainty elegance. All of this, in addition to her already astonishing beauty, made the banquet especially bright and beautiful.

That chubby, round-faced Director Wang seemed to be completely accompanying her at this dinner party, only toasting Vice Chief Zhong and discussing business. Shen Hong, on the other hand, was no longer depressed like before. She sat opposite Wei Tianmin and Chen Feng and chatted with them in a relaxed and natural manner. It was as if they had met an old friend.

"Chief Zhong, your criminal investigation team is really full of stars!" Shen Hong said this with a slight smile towards Vice Chief Zhong. However, her peripheral vision swept towards Wei Tianmin, "I've interacted with Officer Wei, Officer Chen and the others a few times. I deeply feel that they have extraordinary talent and ability!"

"Where …?" "Ahh!" Vice Chief Zhong raised his glass with a smile and thanked her, "Miss Shen is too kind …"

Wei Tianmin also raised his glass and expressed his gratitude, "We are just small police officers — no matter how tiring and arduous it is, it's only right for us to serve the people …"

"A junior policeman? Officer Wei, you are too modest! "You little cop, you just solved a few big cases without batting an eyelid..." Shen Hong finished the wine in one gulp and smiled faintly. "A rare elite of the police like Officer Wei can be said to be a shining idol in the hearts of the citizens like us!"

Hearing this, Chen Feng, who was sitting next to Wei Tianmin, seemed a little unnatural. He didn't drink much, but his face suddenly flushed red and he coughed a few times.

"Of course, there's also Officer Chen …" Shen Hong's eyes turned bright as she filled her glass with alcohol. "You and Officer Wei are both men that I admire a lot …"

"Thank you, Miss Shen!" Chen Feng stood up straight with a sound of "Pa". He looked flattered and ecstatically clinked a glass with Shen Hong as he finished the liquor happily.

Wei Tianmin was quietly watching Ye Zichen's open flattery and behavior, and couldn't help but frown. He had just raised his eyes when Shen Hong looked at him. Their gazes met, and they both understood each other's feelings, before turning their heads away.

"Wei and Chen are both pretty good," Vice Chief Zhong said vaguely while chewing on a lobster, "They were both promising talents of the young … It's a pity that the water in the pond is still too shallow for the Public Security Bureau of our city … "It's bound to their development quite a bit …"

When Wei Tianmin and Chen Feng heard this, they could only laugh dryly and didn't say anything.

"Yes!" "In this day and age, anything outstanding needs to be 'packaged' …" Shen Hong seemed to be a little drunk, a blush appearing on her snow-white face. "I actually know some of the famous media's' records' …" If you contact them another day, help your Public Security Bureau report on the progress of the Security Police and Officer Chen, how about it? "With a reputation, everything can now be discussed …"

"Hehehe …" Vice Chief Zhong glanced at the two of them, then raised his glass and said to Shen Hong, "Since Miss Shen has such a good intention, I'll thank you for your trouble on behalf of them …"

When Chen Feng heard this, he immediately danced with joy. He raised his wine cup and thanked Shen Hong profusely.

Wei Tianmin, who was sitting next to him, did not get up. He opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but seeing that Chen Feng's and Vice Chief Zhong's eyes were glowing with excitement and were unwilling to spoil their happiness, he had no choice but to give up.

Shen Hong, who was in the middle of drinking and thanking him, secretly noticed his expression and action as he was about to refuse her. She couldn't help but raise her eyebrows slightly. The smile on her lips remained as faint as the clouds in the sky.

The joyous party had finally ended. Since Shen Hong was already drunk, Vice Chief Zhong ignored Chen Feng's "voluntary taming" and assigned Wei Tianmin, who was the least drinker and the best driver, to drive her back to his "Fontaine Villa" in her car.

As soon as they entered the car, Shen Hong, who had been overflowing with enthusiasm during the feast, immediately calmed down. She just sat in her seat and stared straight ahead. The cold and focused silhouette of her face was as beautiful as jade from the side.

Wei Tianmin also didn't say anything. He drove the car skillfully and calmly, turned the corner onto the main road, and drove away freely. After twenty to thirty minutes, he was still unable to restrain himself and spoke in a heavy voice. "Miss Shen is truly dazzling, as expected of a famous' courtesan 'of Ningchuan City!"

Hearing Wei Tianmin's words which were mixed with complicated feelings, Shen Hong's face turned slightly pale, as if she had been slapped in the face. Her breathing quickened for half a minute, and then gradually calmed down. When Wei Tianmin drove onto an overpass, she quietly opened her mouth and said, "You are wrong. Go and ask around in the circles, I've always disliked these social occasions the most. If I didn't hear that you would be attending today's social meetup, even if ten directors of your Public Security Bureau came to invite you, I wouldn't have come. "

Her words were so gentle, so natural and so natural that it made Wei Tianmin feel apologetic. His face turned red and he slowly said, "I …" I'm a little drunk. There are some words that went out of line, I hope that Miss Shen can forgive me. " He pondered for a moment, gritted his teeth, and continued, "In addition, I personally would like to thank Miss Shen for her kind intentions towards me. However, regarding the matter of getting the media to 'package' me up, you should be merciful and let me go! "

Shen Hong didn't seem to hear his words. She just looked out of the window quietly, not saying a word.

The carriage quieted down. Wei Tianmin also concentrated on driving and didn't say anything more.

After a long while, she slowly turned her gaze away from the window and sighed lightly, as if talking to herself, "I just saw a few waitresses selling high-end cosmetics by the side of the road …"

She glanced at Wei Tianmin from the corner of her eyes and paused for a second before she continued, "Among these female attendants, one or two are very beautiful, and their figures are very good — it's rare to see someone as outstanding as them in our 'Black Swan Group' …"

Wei Tianmin leaned forward slightly with both hands on the steering wheel. He was still driving without saying a word.

"They have such a proud endowment, yet they have to struggle tirelessly all day for their livelihood, for a small salary …" Shen Hong said leisurely, "What a pity …" What a pity … Beautiful and talented, wouldn't it be a pity if it didn't match with nobility and honor? Officer Wei, what do you think? "

With a squeak, the car came to a halt. Wei Tianmin held the steering wheel tightly and stopped in front of the red light. He took a few deep breaths, feeling as if his heart was beating very hard.
