Chapter 192: Chapter 192: Arrested Again _1
Su Chengyu quickly recited the Calming Incantation and got up, his back to Fang Qing.
"Since your injuries are alright now, you should head back first," Su Chengyu said.
Fang Qing closed her eyes, a flurry of thoughts swirling in her head. Still pondering what to do if Su Chengyu kissed her, she didn’t expect him to regain his composure so quickly. This left her somewhat relieved, yet slightly disappointed deep inside.
With her face flushed in embarrassment, Fang Qing also stood up, lightly biting her red lips, and suddenly said, "Su Chengyu, I like you."
"Huh?"
Su Chengyu was taken aback. This confession was too sudden, leaving him unprepared.
"Captain Fang, are you always so direct? You’re joking with me, right!" Su Chengyu turned around, a faint smile on his lips.
"I don’t like to beat around the bush. If I like someone, I like them - nothing wrong with that. Having feelings for someone is my right, isn’t it?"
Fang Qing replied directly without hesitation.
"Lin Chuxue said that I’m a jerk. It’s risky to like a jerk like me."
Su Chengyu smirked. Since Fang Qing was straightforward, he decided to be upfront as well!
"Maybe, but I can’t deceive my feelings. Coming clean about this doesn’t come with any hidden motives - it just feels too suffocating to keep my feelings to myself. Now that I’ve said it out loud, I feel much more at ease."
Fang Qing revealed a carefree smile, her flush gradually fading.
"Can I ask you a question?" Fang Qing asked.
"Go ahead." Su Chengyu nodded slightly.
"Between Liu Yan and Lin Chuxue, who do you like more?" Fang Qing asked with a smile.
Su Chengyu stroked his chin, thinking who he liked the most was of course Aunt Xu.
"As a certified playboy, my answer is, I like them all." Su Chengyu sat down, crossed his legs.
Fang Qing sneered, "As expected from a jerk. Okay, I need to return to the squad."
"Wait. Your family is from Jiangyang city, do you know Hengtong auction house?" Su Chengyu asked.
"Of course, I know. Hengtong auction house is the largest auction house in Jiangyang City. It holds an auction every week and one large-scale auction every month," said Fang Qing.
"What’s the background of the Hengtong auction house?"
Su Chengyu continued to inquire. Since he needed to find the Wind, Moon, Flowers, and Birds Painting, he had to understand the true nature of the Hengtong auction house.
"The Hengtong auction house belongs to the Wanrong Group, and the chairman of the Wanrong Group is the richest man in Jiangdong, Lu Wanrong."
Of course, Su Chengyu knew Lu Wanrong’s reputation. As the richest man in Jiangdong, Lu Wanrong’s fame needed no explanation, it was well-known all over Jiangdong.
Hearing this, Su Chengyu squinted his eyes. The Hengtong auction house was Lu Wanrong’s territory, which made the matter more complex.
"Why are you asking about the Hengtong auction house?" Fang Qing asked.
"An heirloom of my grandfather was sold by my ex-wife Jiang Yuyan at the Hengtong auction house. This item is very important to me. I want to find the buyer’s information through Hengtong and buy the heirloom back," explained Su Chengyu.
"That might be a bit difficult. The reason why the Hengtong auction house is the largest and most authoritative is because it absolutely protects the privacy of its clients. They will definitely not give you the information," said Fang Qing, shaking her head.
"I’ll try anyway. No matter what, I have to get the heirloom back."
Su Chengyu would not give up simply because it was Lu Wanrong’s territory. The Wind, Moon, Flowers, and Birds Painting was far too important to him. No matter what it took or who he offended, he was determined to retrieve it.
"About this matter, let me see if I can help in any way. If my dad or my second brother can get involved, perhaps there may be hope. What exactly is the heirloom you’re looking for?"
Fang Qing was also unsure. Although her dad was one of the power brokers in Jiangdong, it wasn’t certain that Lu Wanrong would give him face.
"It’s a painting, called Wind, Moon, Flowers, and Birds Painting."
Su Chengyu knew about the influence of Fang Qing’s family. If Fang Qing could find any clues about the painting, he wouldn’t have to put in much effort.
"If I help you find it, how will you thank me?" Fang Qing asked with a grin.
"Offer myself in return."
Su Chengyu suddenly stood up, his left arm circling around Fang Qing’s waist while his right finger gently lifted her chin. Fang Qing’s body stiffened slightly, and she met Su Chengyu’s gaze. Looking into his burning eyes, she pursed her lips, slightly tilted her face upward, and closed her eyes.
Her red lips were charming, like blooming rose petals, enticing and irresistible.
Su Chengyu swallowed a gulp of saliva, about to make his move, when there was a sudden knock at the door.
Like a startled deer, Fang Qing quickly wrestled free from Su Chengyu’s embrace. Su Chengyu extended his tongue to lick his lips, feeling a little regretful. He then cast a Divine Sense, realizing that it was Zeng Yifan with the Dragon Soul officers outside.
Zeng Yifan sent a message to Su Chengyu, but his phone was placed aside. He was too busy treating Fang Qing’s injuries earlier and hadn’t noticed the message. Even if he had seen it, he would not have gone on the run.
Since Dragon Soul was after him, running would mean getting onto Dragon Soul’s wanted list.
Su Chengyu walked over to open the door, and Zeng Yifan was taken aback to see that Su Chengyu was still at home. He gave Su Chengyu a worried look.
"Chief Minister Zeng, we meet again. You’re not here to arrest me again, are you?" Su Chengyu said nonchalantly.
Zeng Yifan pulled out the arrest warrant from Dragon Soul. Since Su Chengyu didn’t leave, he had to act professionally and couldn’t let Su Chengyu go in front of other officers, regardless of his feelings.
"Su Chengyu, you are suspected of intentional murder. I am now officially arresting you and taking you back to Dragon Soul for investigation."
"The person who arrested me last time was you, and it’s you again this time. It seems we share quite a fate," Su Chengyu said.
Hearing about Dragon Soul arresting Su Chengyu, Fang Qing gave a start and quickly ran over, saying, "Chief Minister Zeng, I was present at today’s incident. Can I accompany you to Dragon Soul?"
Fang Qing didn’t expect Dragon Soul to directly arrest people. Typically, in such situations, Dragon Soul wouldn’t interfere. Even if they did get involved, they would at most bring Su Chengyu in for a chat and issue a warning rather than make an arrest.
Zeng Yifan pondered for a moment, then nodded, "Sure."
Thereafter, Su Chengyu was handcuffed and taken into Dragon Soul’s vehicle, while Fang Qing got into Zeng Yifan’s car.
"Chief Minister, why has it come to this? Normally, Dragon Soul wouldn’t interfere, right?"
After getting in the car, Fang Qing, now worried, asked.
"You’re aware of the relationship between our Grand Marshal and your master Cai Yi Gen. This time, Su Chengyu might not be so lucky."
Zeng Yifan shook his head. He was just a junior minister and couldn’t help Su Chengyu in this matter.
Fang Qing then realized the gravity of the situation. If Stone Sword Edge was determined to deal with Su Chengyu, it would be difficult to handle.
When Dragon Soul stepped in, it was more dangerous and effective than Cai Fist Gate seeking revenge!
Fang Qing didn’t expect that the distinguished Grand Marshal of Dragon Soul would seek personal revenge!
