After ringing the doorbell, Wen Feng, wearing a loose casual outfit, stood in front of the door, with her hair simply tied behind her head, showing a charming and delicate face. She took the fruit basket from Fang Zhicheng and said with a smile: "Building 19, where you just went, is the home of Miao Hancheng, the Deputy Minister of Finance."

Fang Zhicheng had heard of Miao Hancheng's fame. He was one of the few scholar-experts in the Ministry of Finance and an important reformer and promoter of the financial system in recent years.

Fang Zhicheng thought about it, and finally said: "His daughter seems a little strange."

Wen Feng nodded, sighed, and said, "You can see that Lao Miao has been worried about this daughter. She has a weird personality and is always getting into trouble. Some time ago, she even had a scandal with a famous male star. Later, Lao Miao used a lot of connections to suppress the news."

Fang Zhicheng frowned and said, "Have you thought of a solution?"

Wen Feng sighed and said, "The circle of the younger generation in Yanjing is too chaotic. If one of them doesn't learn well, it will become a mess. Miao Dai'er is actually relatively good. Some people get together and make trouble, and even take drugs..."

Fang Zhicheng was shocked when he heard this and laughed, "Alas, I can't understand the world of those born in the 1990s."

Wen Feng remembered something, patted Fang Zhicheng on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "The nanny is cooking, I'm afraid it will take another half an hour before dinner is served. Let's go and see the work I gave you."

Arriving at the studio on the third floor of the villa, Fang Zhicheng saw a white cloth covering the easel. Wen Feng walked over gracefully and pulled it gently, and the painting suddenly appeared before his eyes.

Fang Zhicheng glanced at Wenfeng, then at the painting, and was so shocked that he was speechless.

The entire background of the painting is a black mine, with various tools placed in the cave in a mess. A woman lies naked in the center of the picture, with full breasts, a flat belly, and plump and perky buttocks, forming a graceful curve. In line with the atmosphere of the mine, many stains are added to the white and smooth body, creating a very visually impactful effect.

The reason why she felt so surprised was that the face of the person in the painting was too similar to Wen Feng beside her.

The woman in the painting has upturned eyebrows, thin lips and a high nose bridge, which is a unique portrayal of Wen Feng.

"Master's wife, I can't accept this painting!" Fang Zhicheng said quickly with a dry mouth and a red face.

Isn't it too exciting to collect nude paintings of the master's wife

Wen Feng raised her eyebrows and asked in confusion: "Why? Are you not satisfied?"

Fang Zhicheng smiled awkwardly and said, "I think it's too good. It's a masterpiece that will be passed down through the ages. It would be a waste to keep it in my hands."

Wen Feng was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter and said, "I understand what you are thinking. You have a good eye. The main character in this nude painting was indeed created based on me as the model. However, since it is a work of art, we should look at it beyond the boundaries of art."

Seeing that Wen Feng really wanted his painting, Fang Zhicheng reluctantly said, "Okay, then I'll thank Master's wife."

Although Fang Zhicheng refused verbally, he had complicated feelings and was reluctant to part with the painting.

Fang Zhicheng wrapped up the painting carefully and did not look at Wenfeng from beginning to end, for fear that Wenfeng would see uncleanness and blasphemy in his eyes.

Wenfeng is an artist, and all of her works carry profound meanings, but Fang Zhicheng has never been an artist. When he looked at this painting, it was very simple and pure. It was just a nude painting that was extremely coquettish and unique in charm, and the protagonist was his teacher's wife Wenfeng!

Wenfeng appears to be very open-minded, but she is not so generous in her heart. This painting has been placed in the Qiongjin Villa for a long time. She has always wanted to try to create another one, but she has never had any inspiration. It was not until Fang Zhicheng came into the studio that day and asked for this painting that Wenfeng made up her mind to complete it.

Wenfeng is a sensitive person. She certainly would not casually give an oil painting with herself as the model to others, because this is an ambiguous signal that makes her heart stir.

However, since Fang Zhicheng took the initiative to ask for it, and Wenfeng had always felt that she had a good relationship with Fang Zhicheng, she decided to complete the painting and give it to him.

Wenfeng was in mixed feelings. She was filled with joy as she watched Fang Zhicheng happily packing up the paintings. But at the same time, out of a different kind of emotion, she secretly blamed herself for having so many complicated entanglements with her husband's disciple.

Damage has been spilled and it is impossible to get back a painting that has been given away.

Wenfeng could only pretend not to care and told Fang Zhicheng from an artistic point of view that the painting she gave him should not be understood simply from the picture, but the spirit behind it should be appreciated.

After going downstairs, Fang Zhicheng put the painting into the car and told Guo Jinyuan to put it in the study after returning home, and he would hang it up when the time came. His own study was a relatively private area, and no one else entered or left except himself.

The nanny had already prepared a table of food. Fang Zhicheng took a look and thought that Wenfeng was quite attentive. The dishes were mainly Huainan style.

Wenfeng opened a bottle of red wine, and the two of them drank while eating.

Wen Feng smiled and said, "First of all, congratulations on your promotion to become the youngest director-general in the history of the Development and Reform Commission."

Fang Zhicheng smiled modestly and said, "It's just temporary. Someone will surpass me in the future."

Wen Feng nodded and said, "The rejuvenation of cadres is the main direction of future adjustments in the Chinese officialdom. The Organization Department is systematically adjusting the age structure of the cadre echelon, which will help society to be more motivated."

She paused and smiled, "You became the main topic at the foreign business negotiation meeting a few days ago. I didn't expect there would be a series of changes afterwards. It was surprising. However, you should keep a low profile in the future. The waters in Yanjing are too deep. It's not good to offend too many people."

Fang Zhicheng sighed and said helplessly: "Now I am in a difficult situation. So many people are staring at me, waiting to see if I can do something. If I don't make some noise, how can I make the audience feel interesting?"

Wen Feng also smiled. The list of 100 young people was just released last week. With Fang Zhicheng taking up the post of Director of the Foreign Investment Department, he has already ranked ahead of Wang Guoyue and become the number one on the youth list.

Wen Feng nodded and said with emotion: "What you did did make you look like the best among young people. If you didn't make such a big fuss, people would think you were just a name for nothing."

Fang Zhicheng felt that he was a little too arrogant, so he smiled gently and said, "Master's wife, how are you doing recently? I heard that Huaxia Bank is setting up an Internet payment alliance. Is that true?"

Wen Feng's beautiful eyes moved, she glanced at Fang Zhicheng, and said with a smile: "You are so well-informed that you even know the bank's top secrets. However, it is not a particularly important matter. Facing the rise of the private financial industry, several major banks have united to update their terminal POS systems within five years to support phone cards binding to bank accounts."

Fang Zhicheng touched his chin, sighed, and said, "Five years is too long, we have to move it forward."

Wen Feng was slightly startled, "You must have a reason for saying that."

Fang Zhicheng nodded and said with a wry smile: "The financial system has begun to mutate rapidly due to the advent of the Internet. Skymart.com has used the online payment system and cooperated with financial companies to build a financial product called Skybao. It is planned to be launched next month, which will definitely disrupt many of the barriers of banks."

"Sky treasure?" Wen Feng asked doubtfully.
