Chapter 10
The Hot-Tempered Lady Cop
Therefore, Pang Jing Dong kept this event deep in his memories, until Shen Jia Yao returned him the ring today, which allowed him to have his recollection of it.
"I never thought, you would keep it for such a long time…" said Pang Jing Dong to himself while playing around with the ring, "If you gave this ring back, does it mean you have negated my vows?"
Pang Jing Dong"s thought was interrupted by the doorbell. He walked to his garden and opened the gate, and found his visitor to be the property manager of his area, who smilingly bowed when he saw Pang Jing Dong.
"Can I help you with anything?" asked Pang Jing Dong.
"Sorry to disturb you, Mr. Pang, but I had no choice too."
Pang Jing Dong was told that the owner of a mansion nearby had died in the afternoon. According to the situation of the crime scene, it was yet to decide if it was a suicide or murder; Hence the police came to investigate, to ask for information from the nearby residents.
It was obvious that the property management team did not wish such an incident to happen in this luxury residential area. Not to mention the negative influences from the incident, but it was quite disturbing for the people living here if the police kept on visiting them to ask questions for investigation purpose, which would result in a lot of complaints received by the property management team. Initially, they planned to keep it low profile, but the police did not compromise and insisted on strictly following the investigation procedures.
With the police on one side, and the residents with powerful backgrounds on the other, the property management team did not dare to offend either side; Thus, they could only humbly apologize to the residents. The poor property manager was having muscle cramps on his face due to smiling for a prolonged period.
Pang Jing Dong was about to speak when a girl"s voice was heard coming from the manager"s back, "Have you talked to the owner of this mansion?"
Following the pleasant voice that sounded like a chime, a female cop wearing her uniform appeared before Pang Jing Dong. The two of them exchanged glares and were stunned on the spot.
"Jing Ling Ling?"
"It"s you!!!" Jing Ling Ling paused for a moment, before continuing, "You are the owner of this property?"
"Anything wrong with that?" answered Pang Jing Dong in a cold tone, with his arms crossing.
Jing Ling Ling stared up and down at him with a suspicious look, "I couldn"t tell that you are so wealthy!"
"Should I write "I am rich" on my face for you?"
Jing Ling Ling did not say it for no reason. After the unlucky encounter during the day, she immediately investigated Pang Jing Dong"s background.
To her disappointment, Pang Jing Dong had no criminal record at all. He left the country at the age of 16, and returned not long ago, currently working in a real estate company.
That was why Jing Ling Ling was confused, according to my investigation, Pang Jing Dong is only an ordinary employee, how can he afford to live in such a luxury mansion?
Although there are lots of people who had earned a fortune overseas and returned to their countries to enjoy their lives, it did not make sense in Pang Jing Dong"s case. Firstly, he was too young, which meant it was impossible for him to earn a huge sum of money by himself legally. Secondly, if he was to make a fortune overseas and had returned, why would he work as a regular employee, instead of enjoying his life?
With this thought, Jing Ling Ling felt there was something fishy about Pang Jing Dong, so she decided to investigate his financial status further. Even though the incident that happened in the afternoon was likely a suicide, Jing Ling Ling did not want to let Pang Jing Dong escape so easily.
Jing Ling Ling learned that Pang Jing Dong"s parents pa.s.sed away a long time ago while they were overseas, but that was all she could find. If she had the chance to investigate Pang Jing Dong with the help of the police"s database in the country he once lived in, she would be even more shocked because, in the past ten years, Pang Jing Dong"s record was a blank.
"What were you up to this afternoon?" asked Jing Ling Ling in a cold voice, while giving Pang JIng Dong a death stare.
"I will be nervous if you keep looking me like that!" answered Pang Jing Dong.
"Why would you be nervous if you didn"t do anything wrong?" Jing Ling Ling let out a wry smile.
"This has nothing to do with what I"ve done. Suppose Sister Furong was staring at you at the same way, how would you feel? It"s the same logic!"
TL Note: Sister Furong is a celebrity from China who was famous on the Internet.
"You…" Jing Ling Ling glared at Pang Jing Dong fiercely with her wide-open eyes. She felt like taking out her gun and executing him, but she still had public matters to deal with. She calmed herself down and continued to ask, "You haven"t answered me yet, what were you doing this afternoon?"
"I was contributing to the society!"
"You what?"
"That means I was doing my duties at work!"
Pang Jing Dong"s glare was scanning Jing Ling Ling"s body recklessly; she does look valiant and heroic in her uniform, completely different to the unreasonable "Superwoman" I met in the morning. A balanced physique covered in the well-tailored uniform, presenting her attractive curves; her busty b.r.e.a.s.t.s and big b.u.t.tocks were tight against her blue uniform, trying to break out.
"Not sure for the ladies who are wearing uniforms, would also have their characteristics concealed by them?" a thought came up to Pang Jing Dong, which was soon rejected by Jing Ling Ling"s following reaction.
Jing Ling Ling who found out what Pang Jing Dong was staring at, snapped at him while her cheeks brushed red, "What are you looking at?"
If another female cop were in Jing Ling Ling"s place, she would most likely ignore him, or give him a scornful look. However, Jing Ling Ling became a cop to crack some legendary cases, not to be bullied. Not to mention she had a powerful dad as her background which helped her to be well-received in her network, there was no way she could allow a pervert to look at her like that!
"I"m looking at you!" answered Pang Jing Dong honestly.
"Me…, do I have anything to look at?"
"First of all, you are a lady, an attractive one. Generally, as animals are unable to live forever, they will choose an opposite gender for reproductive purposes, to ensure the continuation of their species, so do humans." Pang Jing Dong lit up a cigarette, took a puff of it, then continued, "Therefore, either a male or a female, if they saw an attractive opposite gender, they will pay close attention to the person. I am an ordinary human, and I believe you are too."
"But you are not attractive in my opinion!" replied Jing Ling Ling while clenching her teeth. In her eyes, there was no difference between Pang Jing Dong and any guy who frequently visited the brothel.
"Well that is your problem!" Pang Jing Dong shrugged his shoulders while telling her, "But you can"t stop me from admiring you!"
The conversation between Pang Jing Dong and Jing Ling Ling had grabbed everyone"s attention. The property manager who was scared to interrupt went aside while eavesdropping on the conversation. The other cops who were aware of what was happening stopped what they were doing, but all stayed a distance away with no intention to come close.
Jing Ling Ling once again controlled herself from drawing the gun, "Where do you work at?"
"The current name of the company is Zheng Dong Real Estate Enterprise!"
"What is your position?"
"I am in charge of marketing planning for the high-rise buildings!"
"Who can prove if you were at the company the whole afternoon?"
"All of my colleagues!"
"I will continue to investigate!" Jing Ling Ling recorded his answers on a notebook. She then closed her notebook, and said to Pang Jing Dong, "Don"t let me find out you have anything to do with the incident!"
