Captain Lu was aloof again today.

Chapter 45 Jealousy
A moment of silence followed, utterly still.

Wen Cheng's low, husky voice suddenly rang out, carrying an undeniable air of authority: "Now that we have a target, I urge the police to take action as soon as possible."

"Okay." Wei Qingsong's lips curled into a cold smile.

Wen Cheng frowned slightly, feeling a strange chill in her smile.

This feeling was fleeting, and Wencheng didn't dwell on it.

In his eyes, Wei Qingsong was no threat.

She is indeed beautiful, but in the police force, beauty is of no use.

He had never heard of Wei Qingsong's reputation, so he naturally categorized her as a "pretty face."

Therefore, although I found it strange, I didn't say much.

"Let's go." He looked at Wen Ye, his tone cold and hard, yet it contained a questioning tone.

Wei Qingsong raised an eyebrow with interest.

She was very curious about what role Wencheng, her adopted son, played in the Wen family.
Wen Ye became somewhat more restrained in front of him, no longer acting so carefree.

"Okay, brother, please wait a moment."

As he spoke, he turned to look at Lu Jingming, whose expression was cold and aloof, and coughed lightly, saying, "Officer, my brother has something to discuss with you. Why don't you come outside with my brother for a moment?"

Wen Cheng cast a questioning glance at him, his brows furrowing slightly, but he didn't refute it.

Even a fool could tell what Wenye was thinking. Wencheng had always indulged his unreliable younger brother.

Lu Jingming ignored him, standing motionless with an indifferent expression.

This really worried Wen Ye.

What are you doing standing here motionless? He still wants to get to know this pretty policewoman better.

With two cold-faced monsters together, can he still perform normally?
What's more... one of them is so handsome.

Well, compared to him, I'm probably... maybe a little worse?

Wen Ye suddenly felt a little insecure.

With such great resources around her, would this beautiful policewoman even glance at him?

However, this cold-faced police officer seems a bit aloof, so he must be single.

Unlike him, who is gentle, handsome, and rich, no woman wouldn't fall in love with him.

Lu Jingming remained still, and Wen Cheng naturally followed suit.

The atmosphere became inexplicably tense, but Wei Qingsong found it somewhat amusing.

Her eyes were mocking, and she crossed her arms with a half-smile, wanting to see what other tricks Wen Ye could come up with.

Wen Ye seemed to have no choice but to go all out, muttering to himself, "Fine, if I don't want to leave, I don't want to leave. So what if I get stared at? I don't care."

He rubbed his hands together and stepped forward excitedly: "Beautiful and charming police officer, I fell in love with you at first sight the moment you walked in. I think we can exchange contact information."

His face beamed with a warm smile, as radiant as a sunflower.

"Oh, right, I need to give a formal self-introduction. My name is Wen Ye, I'm 29 years old, a passionate Sagittarius, and born in the Year of the Pig. I've heard that men born in the Year of the Pig are the most suitable for marriage. My assets are estimated to be in the eight figures. If you marry into this family, you can enjoy a life of leisure and won't have to do this hard and tiring job anymore."

Wen Ye spoke eloquently and animatedly, completely unaware of Wei Qingsong's increasingly cold expression and the deep, icy gaze behind him.

Wei Qingsong narrowed her eyes and looked at him with a deep gaze: "If you've finished speaking, please leave."

Wen Ye was first taken aback, then his eyes shone with an even stronger admiration: "I wasn't wrong, you really are a special woman!"

She's nothing like those women who throw themselves at him for money!
Wei Qingsong's lips twitched slightly; she found him annoying and didn't intend to get entangled with him any further.

She then turned to Wen Cheng and said, "Mr. Wen, we have learned the details. Don't worry, we will do our best to expedite the process..."

She paused, a smile spreading across her face, her voice soft and gentle: "Find the whereabouts of the suspect, Situ Hui, as soon as possible."

Wen Cheng's eyes flickered slightly, but he simply nodded and said, "Alright, then thank you for your hard work."

Wen Ye felt completely ignored, clutching his heart in hurt, his gaze hesitantly shifting between Wen Cheng and Wei Qingsong.

Her peach blossom eyes were filled with disbelief as she exclaimed, "Beautiful policewoman, you don't actually like a man like my brother, do you? Please, am I not handsome? Besides, my brother is so boring, the word 'woman' doesn't even exist in his dictionary, okay?"

Whether the word "woman" exists in Wencheng's dictionary is currently uncertain to Wei Qingsong.

It's safe to say that Wenye's dictionary is filled with the word "woman," and nothing else.

Wei Qingsong gave him a cool glance, said nothing, exchanged a look with Lu Jingming who was leaning against the wall with his arms crossed, and the two left the room.

Wen Ye: "???"

He refused to admit that he would one day be ignored by a beautiful woman. He chuckled dryly and said to Wen Cheng, "This girl is so pretty, it's a pity she has something wrong with her head, she can't understand what I'm saying. You agree, brother?"

Looking into his yearning eyes for approval, Wen Cheng hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

Wen Ye was about to say something more when Wen Cheng said calmly, "Let's go, the master is still waiting for news."

"Oh," Wen Ye said listlessly.

The thought that Wei Qingsong's gaze had been constantly glancing in Wen Cheng's direction made him even more resentful. He muttered to himself, "See? What did he say? His older brother is such a boring person!"

Such a beautiful woman, how could she have such poor taste?

Even after leaving the meeting room, the cold melancholy between Lu Jingming's brows remained.

Staring at his cold profile, Wei Qingsong had a sudden thought and smiled sweetly, "Why is your face so sour? Are you jealous?"

Lu Jingming's gaze was cold: "If we're talking about shamelessness, you and Wen Ye are evenly matched."

Despite his merciless sarcasm, Wei Qingsong remained unperturbed and asked with a grin, "Is that so? Then may I ask Captain Lu, why are you releasing this low-pressure atmosphere here? Is it to benefit your busy colleagues, so you're willing to burn yourself out and become a walking air conditioning generator?"

“If you’re really that bored, you could consider going with Chen Jin and Xiao Song to investigate the Wen family’s background.” Lu Jingming said coldly, his eyes as icy as ever.

After being stabbed like that, Wei Qingsong actually felt somewhat wronged.

Despite the fact that their relationship had improved somewhat, Lu Jingming gave her the cold shoulder because of some random flower butterfly.

She didn't send any ambiguous signals to Wen Ye. It was just that Wen Ye was lustful and deluded himself. Why does it seem like she did something wrong?
Perhaps emboldened by Lu Jingming's unintentional tenderness towards her these past few days, Wei Qingsong acted impulsively and said sourly, "No matter what, I rejected Wen Ye in person and made my stance clear, unlike some people whose ambiguous rumors with policewomen have spread like wildfire."

Lu Jingming paused slightly, a subtle light flashing in his deep eyes.

"A rumor? Who told you that?"
