Captain Lu was aloof again today.

Chapter 101 Hidden secrets
Her smile was bright and radiant, like the spring sun, bringing warmth to the chilly autumn wind.

Lu Jingming lowered his head slightly, a gentle smile curving his lips.

When Xiao Song saw this, his eyes widened in surprise. He quickly nudged Chen Jin's arm and whispered, "Brother Chen, look! Captain Lu is smiling so broadly."

Chen Jin was unfazed and glanced at him: "Look at you, so naive. What's wrong with laughing? As long as Sister Wei stays in our Municipal Bureau long enough, you'll be able to unlock more of Captain Lu's interesting faces."

The melting of icebergs is just the beginning.

Next, they might even see spring arrive, flowers bloom, and wildfires spread.

That scene would definitely be a spectacular sight.

Xiao Song's eyes shone brightly as he rubbed his hands together with anticipation.

A cheerful female voice rang out from the doorway: "What do you mean 'I guess so'? So I came all this way just to deliver takeout to you? Songsong, you're really something."

Shen Fu walked in wearing sky-high heels and crossed her arms.

"I just happened to see your location on your WeChat Moments and knew you were near Xunji, so I'm asking you for a small favor and also inviting you for afternoon tea." Wei Qingsong stood up and went forward to greet Shen Fu, winking and smiling.

Before Shen Fu could say anything, another grinning head popped out from the doorway.

"Hi, Consultant Wei, we meet again."

That striking face, her smile must be enough to charm a whole bunch of young girls.

Of course, Wei Qingsong is definitely not within this "large area".

After all, in her eyes, Wenye was just a fool.

Wei Qingsong's smile immediately froze. She turned her head and whispered in Shen Fu's ear, "Why did you bring this bastard child here?"

Anyone with eyes could see through Wen Ye's little scheme.

Putting everything else aside, she was only worried about stirring up Lu Jingming's jealousy.

Lu Jingming is usually generous and tolerant, with a broad mind, but when it comes to relationships, he is as petty as a pinhead.

He'd be in trouble if he had to watch Wen Ye act silly.

“You don’t understand. Sometimes, you have to make a man feel threatened so that he will care about you more.” Shen Fu also lowered her voice to answer her question, her expression quite matter-of-fact.

Wei Qingsong's lips twitched slightly, but he didn't comment on her fallacious reasoning.

Shen Fu then cleared her throat and explained, "Actually, Wen Ye and I just finished a cocktail party. He kept pestering me for your WeChat. As soon as he heard that I was coming to bring you afternoon tea, he volunteered to come along."

She turned slightly to the side and pointed to the box at Wen Ye's feet: "Look, here's a ready-made helper. Why not use it? It saves me the trouble of hiring someone to carry it over for me."

Wei Qingsong could see Wen Ye's undisguised, burning gaze the moment she raised her eyes.

She turned her head again and saw Lu Jingming's unfriendly expression, muttering, "What kind of hellish scene is this?"

Shen Fu clicked her tongue, didn't answer, and stepped forward to clap her hands, saying familiarly, "Everyone here is a familiar face. Your consultant Wei and I have been friends for many years. During this time, I am grateful for everyone's care for Songsong. Today's afternoon tea is on me. I hope you can do me the honor."

Everyone admired Wei Qingsong and felt awe towards the mayor's daughter. With these two factors in mind, no one would refuse, and they all stepped forward to open the boxes and make their own selections.

"Wow, it's Xunji's handmade pastries and milk tea. It's so expensive. This afternoon tea costs at least 300 yuan per person."

"Is it that century-old Xunji? Every time I pass by their magnificent store, I feel flattered. I never thought I would be able to eat there in my lifetime."

The detectives were stunned by this extravagant gesture.

Lu Jingming, however, remained calm and composed, sitting motionless in his original position as if he were in deep meditation.

He doesn't have the habit of afternoon tea, nor does he want to join in the fun.

Wen Ye lingered around them, seemingly wanting to say something but hesitating, yet not daring to interrupt their conversation.

Wei Qingsong walked to Shen Fu's side, frowned and said, "I promised to treat you to afternoon tea, how can I let you spend money?"

"Don't give me that. If you keep being so polite to me, it means you don't consider me a friend." Shen Fu rolled her eyes at her, then glanced at Lu Jingming, raising an eyebrow and smiling at her with ill intent.

"How does it feel to make up with your Captain Lu?"

Before this, Wei Qingsong had shared this matter with Shen Fu.

Suddenly asked this question, Wei Qingsong could only force a smile: "I feel pretty good."

What else can we say?
Shen Fu clicked her tongue again: "Alright, seeing that you seem to be enjoying it, I'm relieved."

Wei Qingsong shrugged it off, glancing at the hesitant Wen Ye, and said indifferently, "Then why did you call him over? Didn't you tell him about me?"

She had clearly rejected Wen Ye, but she didn't expect him to be so persistent.

“I told him,” Shen Fu said sincerely, leaning closer and whispering, “He said he believes that with his personal charm, no woman would not choose him.”

Wei Qingsong: "..." Where does this person get this inexplicable confidence?

She gave a helpless pursed-lip look and asked, "By the way, wasn't he seriously injured a while ago and couldn't even get out of bed? How come he's lively and energetic again so quickly?"

A broken bone takes a hundred days to heal, but after a car accident, you're fine? Iron Man, huh?

"It's true that he was in a car accident, but he faked being seriously injured. When the car crashed, he reacted quickly and only suffered minor injuries. Who knew he would take advantage of the situation, bribe the doctor, and tamper with the medical records, just to prevent the old man from taking him back to inherit the family business. The old man was almost made seriously ill by him."

Shen Fu chuckled gloatingly: "But, old foxes are shrewd, and Grandpa Wen found out in just a few days."

Wei Qingsong was speechless; Wen Ye's thought process was truly extraordinary.

With such a large enterprise as Jihai Group, is it really beneath him to inherit it?
Even if he didn't want to, he was the only heir left in the Wen family.

Wen Cheng's revenge has left the old man exhausted, and he will probably have to step down in the near future.

Wei Qingsong suddenly remembered something and asked, "Last time you gave me a bottle of lorazepam, saying it was the medicine Wencheng was taking. Do you know which hospital he got it from?"

It's strange that Wencheng is taking lorazepam when he doesn't show any of the symptoms of anxiety disorder.

Perhaps Wei Qingsong was too sensitive; she always felt that there was some hidden story behind it, but she never had time to investigate further.

I finally have some free time today, so I'll ask them to find out the details.

"I really don't know. Why don't you ask Wenye?"

Because of that unfulfilled engagement, Shen Fu became close to the Wen family, but she didn't know everything about their affairs.

Wei Qingsong hesitated for a moment, then turned to Wen Ye and asked, "Mr. Wen, do you know which hospital your older brother got his medicine from?"

Seeing that Wei Qingsong took the initiative to talk to him, Wen Ye was overjoyed and naturally told him everything he knew: "Although I don't know which hospital he got the medicine from, I saw a business card of a psychological institution there, which seemed to be called Mu'an Psychological Counseling Center."

Upon hearing this familiar name, Wei Qingsong's brow twitched.
