As they ate, Ran Jing suddenly asked Xu Cheng for no reason, "Oh right, I heard you say you have a wife? And she's pretty? You even said she's prettier than Yao Yao? "
Xu Cheng raised his head, looked at Ran Jing, and then looked at Lin Chuxue, and then nodded.
Shen Yao was speechless. She elbowed her best friend Ran Jing and asked in confusion, "What's wrong with you today? Are you checking my background? Is your occupational disease acting up again? "
"Nope." Ran Jing smiled. "We have to find out more. I'm afraid he might have bad intentions towards Chuxue. Chuxue is so pretty."
Xu Cheng immediately said, "I won't! I won't let anyone hurt her! "
Ran Jing quickly followed up, "Why not? To be honest, Chuxue is such a beautiful woman, any normal man would try to get close to her. How can you say you won't have bad intentions towards her? Since you said you have a wife, why aren't you wearing a wedding ring? This is a cover up, do you understand? You are trying to get lucky and still want to flirt with other girls. "
Xu Cheng was speechless. He had a ring, and it was the same one that Lin Chuxue was wearing right now, but he didn't wear it.
"During the mission, family matters can only be put aside," Xu Cheng explained.
In fact, Ran Jing was trying to trick Xu Cheng. She was more of a test. If the person in front of her was really Xu Cheng, she really wanted to know why he let Lin Chuxue live like this. Did he have the heart to do that?
Of course, it was all just speculation, and it was also possible that this person wasn't Xu Cheng, so she still needed to test him.
"Then show us your wife's photo," Ran Jing said.
Xu Cheng fell into deep thought.
Lin Chuxue: "Little Jing, aren't you being too sensitive?"
"Am I?" Ran Jing smiled, looked at Xu Cheng, and said, "You have to protect Chuxue in the future. We can only be assured if we know you well, so please cooperate. You are also a police officer, so you should know how to gain the trust of your employer before she can cooperate with you."
"I didn't bring it with me," Xu Cheng replied.
He was quickly calculating something in his mind. He should have noticed that Ran Jing was probing him with a purpose. Did she notice something?
Seeing Xu Cheng's perfunctory attitude, Ran Jing was even more certain that he was Xu Cheng. She secretly smiled in her heart. Before, when she was working with Xu Cheng, she wasn't as capable as him in every aspect. Now, she felt a sense of accomplishment seeing herself pressuring Xu Cheng step by step.
Xu Cheng felt that this couldn't go on. He already noticed that Ran Jing didn't have good intentions.
Immediately, he looked at her and said, "You don't need to know about my background. It's enough that I have the certificate of a professional special force soldier in Yan Jing. In terms of rank, you are not qualified to interrogate me with your current rank."
Ran Jing: "I'm not asking you from a professional standpoint, I'm just concerned about this matter as Xue's best friend. Why are you so nervous?"
Xu Cheng wiped his lips and changed the topic, "In order to better protect the target one-on-one and not implicate the two of you in the case, what I'm trying to say is that Miss Lin needs to move out of the apartment and find a new place."
This was indeed the best way to protect Lin Chuxue. Otherwise, Xu Cheng wouldn't have the time to take care of these two women, and the masters sent by the Freemasonry weren't something a rookie like Ran Jing could handle.
Ran Jing: "I object!"
Shen Yao: "I object too. Chuxue needs us to take care of her. She's like this, and I don't feel safe leaving her alone outside. You are her bodyguard and a stranger, and when she's bored, she can't talk to you. She needs to live in a place where we can see her, and I think an apartment is good enough. Plus, I already asked for leave to accompany her. I don't feel safe letting Chuxue move out! "
Xu Cheng: "But I have to protect Miss Lin."
Ran Jing: "Then you can move in. I don't feel safe letting Chuxue move out either!"
Shen Yao looked at Lin Chuxue. "Chuxue, tell me, do you want to move out?"
Lin Chuxue looked at Xu Cheng and hesitantly asked Shen Yao, "Then, is it convenient for him to move in?"
Ran Jing: "Of course it's convenient. Didn't Yao Yao and I live with other men before?"
Shen Yao poked her and said with a smile, "This guy isn't Xu Cheng, how can it be the same? You are too casual."
Ran Jing meaningfully glanced at Xu Cheng. "I think it's more or less the same. Anyway, in Mr. Fang's eyes, other than his employer Chuxue, we are all transparent. There's no difference."
There was a deep meaning behind those words.
At this moment, Lin Chuxue said, "Yao Yao, is there a room next door? Let him stay there. "
Then, Lin Chuxue apologized to Xu Cheng, "Mr. Fang, I'm sorry. I'm a woman with a husband, so please forgive me."
Xu Cheng paused for a second and then nodded. "I understand."
At this moment, Ran Jing raised a glass of red wine and handed it over. "Here, this is a toast to you for solving this big case for me."
Xu Cheng clinked glasses with her.
After Ran Jing drank her fill, she suddenly asked, "Who gave you the name Fang Yucheng?"
Xu Cheng's eyes narrowed. "How do you know my name is Fang Yucheng?"
Ran Jing's face froze for a second. "Didn't you tell me?"
Xu Cheng: "I don't think I told you my full name, and you always call me Mr. Fang. Did you investigate me?"
He retaliated.
"I did." Ran Jing confessed, "Do you still remember how I was wondering how you were able to smoothly take over that case and shut up my boss and the leaders in the city? At that time, I asked you who you were, so I couldn't help but investigate you. Is there a problem? "
Xu Cheng's vigilance finally relaxed after hearing her explanation.
"Did you find anything?" he casually asked as he took a bite of his steak.
"Your rank is indeed very high, but I didn't find anything," Ran Jing said.
"Let me give you a friendly reminder, don't investigate me next time." Xu Cheng looked up at Ran Jing and faintly said, "There was someone who investigated me before, but now he's been transferred away."
Ran Jing poured herself a glass of red wine and smiled. "You still haven't answered me, who married Fang Yucheng?"
"My parents, of course." Xu Cheng looked at her. "Do you think there's a problem?"
"I just think your name is very similar to a friend of mine," Ran Jing said.
"There are a lot of people with the same name in China, it's fine as long as I'm not that friend of yours," Xu Cheng said.
At this moment, Shen Yao teased Ran Jing, "Not bad, for you to remember a guy's name for so long, does that mean you have a crush on him? No wonder you're still single and haven't found a boyfriend, turns out you already have someone in your heart. "
Ran Jing rolled her eyes at her.
"It's not like you two don't know this guy, Fang Yucheng. Don't you think Yucheng is short for Xu Cheng?"
Under the half-mask, Xu Cheng's pupils suddenly contracted.
(Two more chapters left, it's a bit late tonight. Sorry, I'm still typing on the remaining two chapters, and it'll probably be after 12. Everyone go to bed first, and I'll post them all at once tomorrow morning.)
