The Romance of a Young Painter

The two brothers were talking when Fang Huaimin's wife Li Ying came back.

"Sister-in-law." Shen Guangji hurriedly stood up to greet people.

"It's Guangji here," Li Ying took off her coat, came to sit next to Fang Huaimin, and said, "I heard that you have been taking care of Guangqing's children since you came back?"

Regarding the sister-in-law's straightforwardness, Shen Guangji could only smile wryly, and said: "I was not there when my aunt passed away. She was suffocated, and now she is trying to find something for me to do."

Li Yingdao: "Guangqing's temper has never been smoothed out by her after all these years in business."

"A lot of people are begging her, so it's her turn to look at people's faces," Shen Guangji said, "In all counting, I'm afraid she has been planted by Meng Shen once since she was born."

Fang Huaimin said: "People from the Meng family have nothing to get along with. They are all like tigers and wolves. By the way, you went abroad to meet Meng Xing this time. What do you think of him?"

Shen Guangji said: "Five years ago, Meng Xing obtained the admission qualification of the top business school in country A. He completed all the credits in three years, and then recommended himself to join AP venture capital. In just one year, he got Breyer Now he is doing very well in the capital market, every investment he handles has a return of more than [-] times, and the industry says he has eyes that can see the future."

Fang Huaimin said, "You know that's not what I asked."

Shen Guangji said: "If you mean him himself, on the surface he is a lot more mature than before, at least his words are not so harsh, but in essence he is the same as before. If you have to say it, it is that his success in country A has made him more mature. He is more egotistical, he is not the kind of person who can be manipulated at will, if the old man still plans to use him to contain Meng Shen, I am afraid that he will have to bear a certain risk."

Fang Huaimin said: "This is also expected by the old man. It is imperative to unplug Meng Shen. With Meng Xing's help, we will get twice the result with half the effort."

Shen Guangji took a sip of tea noncommittally.

"The Meng family has been the cash machine of the Yuan family for so many years, but Guangqing has not noticed it at all since she was married to Meng Shen for five years. I have to say that the Meng family hides it deeply. If it hadn't been for the accident in Anhai that year, we probably wouldn't have been able to find out. Meng, it's a pity that they wiped out all the evidence." Li Ying felt depressed when she thought of this incident. She had just transferred to the Criminal Division and was investigating this murder case with her colleagues. An Hai was someone she knew. She also clearly knew that it was not a simple fight, but she still couldn't punish the real culprit, which once made her very angry.

Fang Huaimin said: "It's a pity for An Hai, he was really worthy of being a young talent back then, but it's a pity that he didn't know people well and was emotional, otherwise there would be no room for the Chen family to speak in City B now."

Li Ying also said: "If he got married with Guang Qing back then, there would be no future."

Shen Guangji smiled and said: "My sister's temper is probably not good enough for An Hai, I remember that Miss Zheng's family was pretty and pitiful, and she was often followed by a large number of suitors. "

Li Ying said: "What's the use of that? In the end, what did the Zheng family do other than add insult to injury when Anhai's accident happened? Anhai is also a fool. At that time, he would still be concerned about the matter of retiring the engagement and refuse to find the old man. When we know the news, the Yuan family will Someone over there has already convicted An Hai."

Fang Huaimin said: "Speaking of which, An Hai was also implicated by us. If he hadn't gotten close to our Fang family, the Yuan family wouldn't have been so eager to attack him. Also, your second brother was actually a few words by the second son of the Zheng family. It's a pity that An Hai is still so young, and he is the only child of the An family..."

Shen Guangji said: "I remember he has a son named Anju, right? Haven't you been looking for him all the time?"

Li Ying said: "The person has been found a long time ago. Didn't you get close to a kid named Zhou Nianjiu recently? An Hai's son was adopted by his stepfather. Now he has changed his name to Wen Ju'an."

Shen Guangji frowned and said: "Sister-in-law, you are checking me in private again."

Li Ying knew that she had slipped the tongue, and quickly said: "I'm sorry, Guangji, you also know that I have an occupational disease."

Fang Huaimin said: "Your sister-in-law has been doing criminal investigation for decades, and she probably won't be able to handle it. Just be considerate. Besides, it won't do you any harm if she filters the people around you. A few years ago, your sister-in-law was involved in the Central America incident." Be vigilant, otherwise you really don't know that the Yuan family's arms are so long, they didn't even let go of colleges."

Li Ying said: "Yes, yes, it's not a precautionary measure. Besides, that Xiao Zhou has a good relationship with our Jialeye besides knowing you. As a mother, I can't rest assured, so I took another look. Didn't Thinking of checking it out, it turned out to be related to the old man."

Shen Guangji said: "Sister-in-law, I know that, he is not the kind of person with ulterior motives."

Li Ying said: "Understood, I promise not to be an example."

Fang Huaimin came over to smooth things over and said, "Guangji, stay for dinner today and let your sister-in-law cook some delicious dishes for you."

Shen Guangji began to report the name of the dish: "Roasted duck with rice wine, sweet and sour pork ribs and beef sauce..."

Li Ying said: "Stop, stop, roasted duck with rice wine and so on is fine, but the sauced beef won't taste good right now."

Shen Guangji said: "It's okay, I'll pack it."

"If you really offend anyone, don't offend you." Li Ying stared, then said to her husband, "Fang Huaimin, you don't care about your brother."

Fang Huaimin poured a cup of tea with a smile and handed it to Li Ying: "Madam, calm down."

Li Ying wasn't really angry either, she went to work in the kitchen after drinking tea.

After having dinner at Fang Huaimin's house, Shen Guangji actually packed the sauced beef back with soup and meat.

After Li Ying waited for him to leave, she murmured to Fang Huaimin: "Old Fang, your younger brother is not young. How many girls have pursued him over the years, why hasn't he been moved?"

Fang Huaimin said: "Guang Ji has big ideas in mind, we probably can't handle this kind of heart."

Li Ying said: "Aren't I just chatting with you? You said that Mengmeng's child did that thing for us Guangji. Guangji wouldn't look for him because of this?"

Fang Huaimin said: "Mengmeng's child is mainly a psychological problem, and it has nothing to do with Guangji. Guangji is also aware of this, but he knows that Guangqing is dissatisfied with him in his heart, so he will agree to this ridiculous request for a while and go to see him in person. Take care of Mengmeng."

Li Ying said: "Oh, Guangqing is also suffering, a good pair of children, Mengmeng is like this, and Meng Xing is not close to her."

Fang Huaimin said: "If she hadn't been so angry that she had to marry Meng Shen back then, how could such a thing have happened."

Li Yingdao: "How old was Guangqing at that time? She was 21 and just got divorced by An Hai. Meng Shen looks good, and she's capable of doing things again. It's no wonder she was impulsive."

Fang Huaimin said: "No matter what the reason is, everyone should be responsible for what they have done. Since Guangqing has made a choice, she must bear the consequences of this choice."

Li Ying said: "Your old Fang's people are really unreasonable."

Fang Huaimin said: "Xiao Li, you are also a member of our old Fang's family now."

Li Ying spat at him and said, "My surname is Li on the ID card."

Fang Huaimin said: "It doesn't matter if the surname is Li or Fang, anyway, it's in our old Fang's family register."

Li Ying was too lazy to quarrel with him, and thought of her little son who was usually like a pistachio, so she said: "That kid Le Ye is still in your old Fang's household registration book, do you still care?"

Fang Huaimin said: "Don't you usually watch him? Besides, he is 22, what should I do?"

Li Ying said: "When he went out, he didn't bring anything except his mobile phone. It's been more than a month, and he didn't return a single trip, and he didn't know how to make a call."

Fang Huaimin said: "Is there still a need to make a phone call? With a mother like you around, I would have checked him out long ago."

Li Ying said: "I also know that he has been living in that little Zhou's house all the time. I didn't do anything that violated the law like illegal surveillance."

Fang Huaimin asked, "Who is this little Zhou?"

Li Yingdao: "Just like Guang Ji, he is also a painter, in my opinion, there is nothing special about it."

Fang Huaimin knew that Li Ying's "nothing special" meant that there was no possibility of committing a criminal offense, so he said: "There is always something special about being able to see Guang Ji differently."

Li Yingdao: "If I have to say it, it is that this figure was born only for painting."

Fang Huaimin said: "More focused than Guangji?"

Li Yingdao: "It's worse than worse. As far as I know, his life path from childhood to adulthood is almost all about painting."

Fang Huaimin said thoughtfully, "Could this be the reason why Guang Ji pays so much attention to him?"

Zhou Nianjiu didn't know that he was becoming the object of concern of people in the power center of Huaguo. He just received a message from an unfamiliar number: I heard that you are asking about a family named Zhou. I know a family named Zhou. The situation is very similar to what you said, but the daughter's name is different from what you said.

Zhou Nianjiu replied: What is the name of the daughter of the family you know?

The other party replied with three words: Zhou Mengdie.

Zhou Nianjiu thought for a while, then asked: Where is her home?

After waiting for a long time, the message from the other party came: that place is being demolished, if you are free, you can find me in Xinglin first, and I will take you there.

Zhou Nianjiu replied: Can I do it tomorrow?

The other party replied: Yes, ten o'clock in the morning.

After making an appointment with someone, Zhou Nianjiu sent a message to Shen Guangji saying that he won't be going tomorrow.

Shen Guangji's call came quickly: "What happened?"

Zhou Nianjiu said: "Someone just sent me a message saying that there is news about my mother's old house. I plan to go and have a look tomorrow."

Shen Guangji said, "Are you alone?"

Zhou Nianjiu said, "Yes."

Shen Guangji said: "You first report that person's mobile phone number to me."

Although Zhou Nianjiu didn't know what to do, he did it anyway.

After a while, Shen Guangji said, "I'll come over at 08:30 tomorrow and drive you there."

Zhou Nianjiu asked, "Is there any problem?"

Shen Guangji said: "It's nothing, I know city B better than you, and I happen to have nothing to do tomorrow, so I'll go with you to see the situation."

Zhou Nianjiu said, "Okay."

Fang Leye waited for him to hang up the phone, then leaned over and asked, "Are you calling Shen Guangji?"

Zhou Nianjiu said, "Yes, how do you know?"

Fang Leye clicked his tongue and said, "This is the way old couples get along with each other."

Zhou Nianjiu rolled his eyes at him: "You should check your eyesight regularly, lest you write too many novels and see everything is pink."
