With global currency devaluation, I'll wear these back and take my whole family flying!

Shen Li is naive, not stupid; she can tell the difference between kind words and harsh words.

However, since Sister Ren Jia had always been quite friendly to her, Shen Li was momentarily at a loss when Sister Ren Jia suddenly spoke to her in such a sarcastic tone, and could only give an awkward smile.

Song Yun'er, standing to the side, glanced at Ren Jia sideways, letting out a silent sneer. She was so angry that she couldn't keep up the act anymore.

He gently tugged at Shen Li's clothes, gesturing for her to stand to his right.

Shen Li nodded gratefully, walked to Song Yun'er's right side and stood there, separating herself from Ren Jia.

"Ignore her, she's just jealous of you."

Song Yoon-ah suddenly whispered.

Upon hearing this, Shen Li looked at Song Yun'er and saw her smile slightly. That smile carried the power of an idol, which immediately calmed her down.

"Thank you, Yoona unnie."

Song Yoon-ah raised her delicate eyebrows slightly, revealing a hint of playfulness: "Don't be shy!"

After several days of high temperatures, Longcheng finally saw a light rain this evening, which brought down the temperature throughout the city.

Shen Ci dressed up carefully. She originally planned to wear a dress with high heels, but she changed her mind when it suddenly started raining. She changed into light blue skinny jeans with flat shoes and also lightened her makeup.

"So innocent, my darling."

Gu Lianxing rested her chin on Shen Ci's shoulder from behind, looking at her in the mirror and exclaimed, "I really envy you for being able to use your beauty to your advantage. You can be sexy and alluring to the point of captivating everyone, or you can be pure and alluring in a way that makes people unable to resist. Unlike me, my beauty is too one-dimensional."

Shen Ci laughed out loud at the compliment and patted her little face: "Don't fall in love with me."

"It's too late, we're already trapped."

Just then, Shen Ci's phone rang. It was a message from Tang Song; he was already downstairs at the dormitory.

Gu Lianxing couldn't help but marvel when she saw the message on the screen: "When I saw him at the police station that day, he seemed quite serious. I didn't expect him to be so good at winning over girls. He even came to pick you up downstairs at your dormitory."

Then she looked at Shen Ci and sighed, "It has to be you, baby. You dare to ask for WeChat as soon as you see something you like, and you're not even afraid of the police!"

“Police officers are human too. Once you take off your clothes, everyone is the same,” Shen Ci said.

"That makes sense, but I still admire you. If it were me, I would definitely wait for the other party to take the initiative."

Shen Ci thought back to the scene that day. In fact, Tang Song came over first and handed her the branch office's business card. In her opinion, this action was a subtle hint.

So how can it be said that the Tang and Song dynasties took the initiative first?

"Go quickly, don't keep our police officers waiting."

Shen Ci nodded, then picked out a bottle of "oceanic" perfume suitable for rainy days, sprayed it twice, and then went downstairs.

Downstairs at the dormitory, Tang Song stood upright by the roadside, holding an umbrella. When he saw Shen Ci coming down, he quickly went to greet her and held the umbrella for her.

Shen Ci looked up at him with a smile in her eyes. His handsome face was truly pleasing to the eye. She said softly, "It suddenly started raining. I thought you would ask me to reschedule for another day."

"My job is such that time chooses me, not the other way around; I rarely have free time."

Perhaps because of the rain, Tang Song's voice sounded particularly pleasant today, blending into the rain: "The car is at the school gate, let's go."

Gu Lianxing was peeking from the dormitory balcony upstairs. Although she could only see a black umbrella hat, she could sense the surging ambiguous atmosphere between the two people under the umbrella.

She stomped her feet excitedly until she watched the two figures with their umbrellas disappear into the distance.

After getting into Tang Song's jeep, he first took a soft cushion from the back seat and put it under Shen Ci's lower back: "The car is a bit old, and the seats are a bit hard, so it will be more comfortable to lean against."

Then I saw him turning the steering wheel with one hand while looking back at the road behind him as he reversed the car.

This car is quite old; it's all manual transmission and doesn't even have a reversing camera.

The two didn't talk much on the way, but neither of them felt awkward. Tang Song focused on driving, and he could faintly smell Shen Ci's pleasant fragrance, which was enough to make him feel happy. His usually serious expression softened unconsciously at this moment.

About half an hour later, the car slowly drove into the underground parking garage of the "MixC Building".

Shen Ci knew about this place and had been here with Gu Lianxing several times, because it was also known as the "Michelin-starred gathering place in Longcheng".

Choosing to eat here shows how much Tang and Song valued their first date.

But Shen Ci also had some doubts in his mind: could a police captain's salary afford such expensive restaurants here?

But her intuition told her that Tang Song wasn't the kind of person who would put on a brave face, so she remained silent.

On the eighth floor, Tang and Song had made a reservation at a "fusion private kitchen" restaurant. The two were led to a window seat by a waitress dressed in a Chinese cheongsam.

The restaurant was doing brisk business, but the atmosphere was remarkably quiet. The diners were not only elegantly dressed, but also deliberately spoke in hushed tones.

After taking her seat, Shen Ci said half-jokingly, "If I had known you were going to bring me here, I would have worn a dress."

Tang Song looked at her with a smile in his eyes and said softly, "You look good just like this."

Shen Ci had heard these words since he was a child, but this was the first time he had heard them from a policeman.

I have to say, it feels really different; it has a unique, alluring quality.

Sure enough, the professional filter exists, and she really enjoyed it!

The restaurant's dishes are indeed not cheap. If calculated based on the prices in my previous life, it would cost about 800 yuan per person. If you only order the signature dishes, it would cost about 1500 yuan per person.

But Tang Song's expression didn't change after he opened the menu, so Shen Ci knew that this wasn't his first time here.

Have you brought other girls here before?

Tang Song looked up at her, and after a long while nodded in acknowledgment: "Yes, ex-girlfriend."

Shen Ci also looked at her and asked, "How many?"

"One."

"Me too."

The two of them thus directly provided each other with a safety net.

Just then, Tang Song's phone rang. He picked it up and glanced at it, his brows furrowing involuntarily. But he still got up and swiped right to answer the call, giving Shen Ci a look that he was going out to take the call.

Shen Ci nodded in understanding, watching as his long legs strode quickly, and he disappeared in just a few steps.

He returned about ten minutes later and explained to Shen Ci, "Sorry, it's a call from the bureau."

"Is there something urgent?" Shen Ci asked.

“Not this time.” Tang Song breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Shen Ci seriously. “But if in the future, I mean if, if we get together in the future, it’s possible that I will leave halfway through our dates quite often.”

He confessed honestly, but Shen Ci was already prepared.

“I understand. You’re a police officer, and your purpose is to handle emergencies. The reason emergencies are urgent is because they happen suddenly.”
