"Hello." Zhang Meng was not affected at all by the man's sudden serious face. She nodded and greeted him calmly.
At this time, Liao Qingting noticed that the man next to her was looking at Zhang Meng with a serious expression, and she immediately stepped on his toes angrily. "Little Stone, who are you showing this look to? Do you have a problem with me, so you put on such an ugly face for me and my friend?"
Shi Lei, whose toes were stepped on, showed a look of pain on his face. After a hiss, he looked at Liao Qingting ingratiatingly and said, "What are you thinking? How could I have any objection to you? I, I just wanted to take a look..."
Before he could finish, Zhang Meng took over, "He wanted to see if I had any intentions towards you, Miss Liao, or he was afraid that I was approaching you with other intentions."
After saying that, Zhang Meng looked at him, and with a smile that seemed to see through his thoughts, she asked, "Well, was my guess right?"
Shi Lei immediately showed an embarrassed expression on his face. He never thought that a woman could guess what he was thinking.
This feeling is really fucking uncomfortable. Liao Qingting immediately looked at Shi Lei. Seeing his expression, how could she not understand? This is what Zhang Meng said. Liao Qingting pulled Shi Lei's arm angrily, "Little Shitou, is what Xiao Meng said true? Do you really think so?"
Shi Lei was pulled over by her and immediately lowered his head. He touched the tip of his nose with one hand embarrassedly. After a while, he stammered, "I can't help it. It's your fault for being so muddleheaded. If you really make friends with people like Ye Xinyue, you'll really be sucked away by them until there's nothing left. Little Dragonfly, don't blame me. I'm doing this for your own good."
When Liao Qingting heard him mention Ye Xinyue, her face turned a little unhappy. "When did you know that Ye Xinyue was hiding something from me?"
Shi Lei paused when he saw her sad face, then walked up to her carefully. "What's wrong? Did you have a falling out with her?"
After saying that, he couldn't help laughing.
Liao Qingting, who was already feeling a bit uncomfortable, was so anxious when she heard his laughter that she immediately kicked him on the thigh and cursed softly, "What are you laughing at? Answer me quickly. When did you know about Ye Xinyue? She approached me with a purpose."
Shi Lei curled his lips. "Little Dragonfly, you're the only one who's blind. You've been fooled by Ye Xinyue's poor acting skills until now. When you first introduced her to me, I saw through the filth hidden in her heart. Let me tell you, people like her are like beauty bees, ready to sting you to death at any time when you're not paying attention."
After listening to this with a bad expression on her face, Liao Qingting suddenly felt that she was really useless. Even Shi Lei, who had only met Ye Xinyue once, could see through Ye Xinyue's evil intentions at a glance, but she had never seen it.
After just one or two short conversations, Shi Lei was now certain that the woman in front of him, Zhang Meng, was truly interested in making friends with Liao Qingting.
Thinking of his previous attempt to test her, Shi Lei, who always dared to take responsibility for his actions, immediately apologized to Zhang Meng.
Zhang Meng smiled and waved her hand, "Don't be so polite. I know you're doing this for Sister Liao's own good."
Shi Lei smiled.
Liao Qingting quickly recovered from Ye Xinyue's blow and immediately said to the two of them, "Xiao Meng, didn't you say you had something good to tell Xiao Shitou? Let's go to the hall to talk."
After saying that, she took one hand each of them and left the Liao family dining room.
The three of them sat for a while before Zhang Meng slowly asked Shi Lei something, "Comrade Shi, I heard from Sister Liao that you work at the Public Security Bureau?"
Shi Lei was about to answer when Liao Qingting suddenly spoke before him, "Hey, Xiao Meng, didn't I tell you that Xiao Shitou does work at the Public Security Bureau? He's the captain who specializes in criminal investigations. He's quite capable, isn't he?"
After listening to this, Zhang Meng looked at her with a half-smile on her face and said, "It's really impressive, but that's also because of him. Why are you so excited? Someone who doesn't know might think there's some kind of relationship between you two."
As soon as Zhang Meng finished speaking, she soon saw a suspicious blush on the cheeks of Liao Qingting and Shi Lei.
Seeing this, Zhang Meng suddenly felt that the two of them were actually in love with each other, but one of them just didn't know it yet.
After coughing lightly, Zhang Meng continued, "Well, let's start talking about our upcoming collaboration."
"Cooperation!" Shi Lei blushed and looked at Zhang Meng seriously as soon as he heard her words.
Zhang Meng nodded and smiled, "That's right, cooperation, Comrade Shi. I wonder if your Public Security Bureau has any special cases, or if you haven't been able to find the murderer yet!"
"Why are you asking this?" Shi Lei immediately asked with a frown.
Zhang Meng chuckled softly and spread her hands, saying, "I'm a good citizen, definitely not a bad person. If Comrade Shi doesn't believe me, Sister Liao can vouch for me."
Upon hearing this, Liao Qingting immediately raised her hands and said, "I can guarantee this. Xiao Meng is a good person. She would never do anything bad."
Shi Lei immediately glanced in Liao Qingting's direction. If anyone else had come to promise this, he might not have believed it, but when the woman before him made the promise, his heart immediately leaned towards her. "Alright then, I believe you. Let me think about it!"
Shi Lei said with embarrassment. Zhang Meng immediately continued, "Don't worry, take your time to think about it."
Although the other party allowed him to think slowly, who was Shi Lei? He was a well-known genius in the Beijing Public Security Bureau. As long as a case passed through his ears, he could quickly remember it in his mind and figure it out quickly.
