Zhao leaves early in the morning with a single flash disk, containing the proof of Shen Wei innocence and alibi. He hops to his car, conditioned like a zombie with dark circle from pulling an all-nighter. He got into the city police station. Shen Wei should be strong enough to stay there just for sleep. Zhao leaves the news matter to Lin Jing and Da qing.
It isn’t taken long for him to arrive at the police station, putting down his cig and walking inside the building. He has been arranging his words to make it more convincing for him of getting Shen Wei. For his job alone, no matter how he hates it, he already goes there for so many times, so he has someone he used to call to get him tip. Last night he already called his informant to see what Zhao should do in these cases. Zhao knows that Shen Wei will be here today.
One hour has passed, talking to different person at one time. He did it all grinning happily though, keeping himself in check as well, to give a certain persuading vibe. Zhao was there for almost all morning, drinking almost 3 glasses of coffee on the wait time. Zhao understands well the bureaucracy will take his time, and he knows he’ll hate this but saving Shen Wei is his priority. This side of him is rare to find, Zhao is rather shocked of himself. Still, you could sense an exhausted aura surrounding him.
Finally, after a fine morning sun raising its mighty power, he could see the face of the pianist once again. Shen Wei escorts by a neat officer, looking at Zhao with perplexed face. Well, it couldn’t be helped, since he doesn’t know who is this person, and why is he trying to help. It is better to postponed the introduction, since they are still around the police territory, Zhao said thanks and bowing to the police who had helped him. He takes a glance on Shen Wei, hinting him to follow up and walks outside, repressing the valiant heartbeat.
Arriving to the car, Zhao lit his cig, having a good taste of it then exhaling.“It does take forever to take you out from there, I have no idea.” Zhao keep going with his cig, staring at Shen Wei before throwing the butt.
“It’s Zhao, Zhao Yun Lan.” He finally mentions his name.
“My name is Shen, Shen Wei.” He still has a buffle in his face, but he takes Zhao hands. “May I know who you are?”
“We’ll talk more later, now get in, I am so hungry from drinking all the coffee they offered.” Zhao is opening his car door.
Not long, until they arrive at the restaurant and sitting down. Zhao ordering food, and asked Shen Wei what he wants to eat. After the waiter leaves, the silence suffocates.
“Shen Wei, is it? Nice name. I am a journalist.” Zhao is looking at Shen directly.
“Ah, then Mr. Journalist. Why are you here? How could you save me?” Shen Wei gaze meet Zhao’s.
That is the time Zhao really feels glad about his decision. One couldn’t be lucky enough to find such a beauty, confined with the perfect voice and such a divine profile. On that strong gaze Zhao sees, he is captivated. Zhao eyes dilated by a perfect round, that maybe he started seeing things. He doesn’t realize he let his blood flowing harder to pump his heart.
“Well, it will be quite a story, but is it fine for you?” Zhao snapped out of his mind.
“Yeah, I got the time in the world.” Shen Wei nod, raising his glass to his pink lips.
Zhao sighs and starts explaining everything. It is really not his fault when he is entangled with Shen Wei this way. It will be a mere coincidence as well, that Zhao is the only one that could save him at this time. Shen Wei realizes he is in huge debt with the person who sits across him now. Hearing Zhao telling a story, he knows what kind of person he is. His choice of words saying clearly how warm and passionate he is, making Shen Wei blushing from the flame Zhao gives him.
