Shen Fei sighed, drank the remaining wine in the glass in one gulp, looked up at Ye Zhibing's eyes, and said softly, "It's a long story."

Ye Zhibing also took a sip of wine and listened with interest.

"When my father was seriously ill, I was running out of money from selling the house. I had no choice but to put some of my paintings on the street for sale, hoping that someone would buy them."

"Then how much did you ask for?"

"Ten thousand per painting."

Ye Zhibing frowned, wondering if the price was too high.

Ordinarily, Shen Fei was just an unknown student at the time, and her works should not be able to sell for so much money.

Shen Fei smiled self-deprecatingly, "I was driven crazy by those medical expenses, so I offered this price. Some people took pity on my experience and were willing to buy it for thousands of dollars, but I didn't let go, so I paid for it for seven or eight days. , I go to the street every day, but no one cares anymore.”

Hearing this, Ye Zhibing guessed the following plot, "Mr. He met you and is willing to buy your paintings, right?"

Shen Fei nodded, "Yes. The weather was fine that day, and I sat on the side of the street all morning, thinking it was a waste of work. But at this moment, a car stopped, and Mr. He got out of the car. He asked Me, are these paintings for sale? I said yes. He asked me again, how much is one painting, and I said 1 yuan for one painting. I thought he would turn around and get in the car after hearing what I said. Go, like those people before, I didn't expect that Mr. He didn't."

"He bought your painting?"

"Yes. He listened, smiled, and said straightforwardly that he bought all these paintings. I am very happy, and made a lot of money at once."

Ye Zhibing also smiled slightly. He never thought that people like Mr. He would do good deeds, "Mr. He is really kind."

Shen Fei paused, filled the wine for herself and Ye Zhibing, took a sip, and continued: "Yes, I feel very lucky. I can earn money with my own hands to treat my father. "

"Yes, you are really filial and talented." Ye Zhibing followed suit with a few words of praise.

"However, the money was spent soon. I have nothing else to do, so I drew a few paintings overnight and continued to sell them on the original street. I hope to meet Mr. He again."

"Have you met again?"

"Meet it. It seems that Mr. He usually passes by that road. He bought my painting again and asked my name."

"So, you told Mr. He about your difficulties?"

Shen Fei nodded and replied, "Yes, I told Mr. He."

"How did he say?"

"He said that he can pay for my father's medical expenses for me."

Ye Zhibing thought for a moment, then asked Shen Fei: "Then Mr. He asked you any conditions?"

Shen Fei hesitated, "I mentioned it. At that time he said that he wanted me to recognize him as a godfather..."

"Godfather?"

"Well. That's what he said. I'm not a child anymore. I know how many people in society accept their daughters, so I don't know whether I should agree."

"What then?"

"Later he said to give me time to think about it, and gave me a business card before leaving."

Ye Zhibing roughly guessed it, "You accepted the business card, and then your father's medical expenses were not paid, so you called Mr. He..."

Shen Fei smiled wryly: "Mr. Ye, you seemed to be by my side at that time, knowing everything. Yes, I called him and agreed to recognize him as a godfather."

"So Mr. He paid for your medical expenses, but unfortunately, your father still left..."

"Hmm." Shen Fei nodded, "Perhaps my father had such a fate. He was given the best medical conditions, but he still couldn't hold back the serious illness."

Ye Zhibing comforted Shen Fei and said, "Don't blame yourself, you have done better than many people."

Shen Fei sighed, "But I still can't keep my father."

Ye Zhibing wanted to divert this sad topic, so he raised his glass, "Come on, let's have a drink."

"Okay." Shen Fei also raised her wine glass, touched Ye Zhibing, and took a big sip.

The music continued to be played outside, and everyone was reveling.

Ye Zhibing and Shen Fei in the box seemed to be two different people, drinking in silence, not knowing what to say for a while.

In the end, Shen Fei broke the silence and asked Ye Zhibing, "Do you want to know what happened afterwards?"

Ye Zhibing nodded, "Think."

"Later, Mr. He sponsored me to finish my undergraduate studies, and then sent me abroad. He found someone to help me introduce the famous master Raphael to guide me in my studies. And he only asked me for one thing..."

"What is it?" Ye Zhibing was very curious, why did Mr. He pay so much?
Is it his noble qualities or simply wanting to do good?
As far as Mr. He is concerned, his profession determines that he is ruthless and ruthless. He takes success as the standard in everything and doesn't care how many people's lives he destroys.

The quality cannot be said to be sublime, otherwise it is a blasphemy to the word sublime.

Perhaps crocodiles also have tears, and bad guys sometimes show kindness, so that's the only way to explain it.

Shen Fei revealed the answer, "Mr. He only asked me to accompany him to have a casual meal when I return to China. In front of outsiders, I don't have to call him godfather. Mr. Ye, I really don't understand why Mr. He did this? I thought he had ideas for me, but I promise, he never apologized to me."

Ye Zhibing thought about it carefully, and felt that Mr. He's son died unexpectedly and had no children under his knees, so he pinned this feeling on Shen Fei.

But it's not easy to tell Shen Fei about this, because she was afraid that she would feel uncomfortable, so she said, "This... I'm not very familiar with Mr. He, so I really can't figure out why."

Shen Fei took a deep breath, "Okay, let's put all these aside and let the past pass. Now that Mr. He is gone, I have to start my own business."

Ye Zhibing smiled gratifiedly, "Miss Shen, I believe that with your talent, you can achieve great success without relying on anyone. Come on."

"Thank you."

Shen Fei smiled gratefully and raised her glass.

Ye Zhibing clinked glasses with Shen Fei and took a long gulp.

After a moment of silence, Shen Fei asked, "Mr. Ye, do you know who killed Mr. He?"

Ye Zhibing shook his head: "I don't know. As I said just now, I don't know Mr. He well, so I don't know what enemies he has."

Shen Fei was also very sad, "It's a pity that I have been abroad and just returned to China. I can't provide you with any information, Mr. Ye."

Ye Zhibing smiled confidently, "Miss Shen, don't worry, as the saying goes, if you want to be unknown, you have to do nothing. As long as you do something, there will be many clues left, and I will find the murderer."

"Then thank you, Mr. Ye. You must avenge Mr. He. After all, he is kind to me."

"Okay, Miss Shen."
