"I'm here~ Is this Miss Feng? Come in directly!"

Zhang Ruolin's muffled voice came from the room, and Shen Wenjiao cautiously opened the door wide and went in.

There weren't many things in Zhang Ruolin's room. It seemed that most of them had been moved to Miss Xu's house downstairs! The empty living room was devoid of any atmosphere, and Zhang Ruolin himself sat on the bed with a somewhat dejected expression.

Oh, this room is too small, and there is no separation between the living room and the bedroom.

What's wrong? What's wrong? Isn't Zhang Ruolin going to get married soon and live a good life? Why is he suddenly unhappy?

Zhang Ruolin glanced at the empty corridor outside which was obviously deserted, and asked Shen Wenjiao in a low voice, who looked curious.

"Ms. Feng, do you think I am really not worthy of Manny?" Zhang Ruolin's tone was confused when he said this, as if he already knew the answer and was just asking out of consideration.

Shen Wenjiao╮(︶﹏︶)╭Brother, you are getting married soon, why are you asking such questions? Don’t you see what you have given up? Besides, is it appropriate to ask such questions to a little girl?

Zhang Ruolin was also a little confused, but he really didn't know who to ask for a moment! If it were in the past, he would go to ask Uncle Xie Sicheng. In his opinion, Xie Sicheng was the most knowledgeable person, and what he said must have made sense.

But now, Zhang Ruolin lowered his head. He was a coward and was too embarrassed to look for Xie Sicheng! He had been living in Shanghai since he was a teenager. Because he had to get information and was wary of everyone around him, he actually didn't have a single friend in all these years.

"Whether she is worthy of him or not actually depends on what Ms. Xu thinks."

After Shen Wenjiao blurted out this, she wanted to slap herself. What's the matter? Are you really going to be an emotional mentor? Don't get involved in other people's affairs, especially such emotional matters.

Zhang Ruolin looked up and knew it was Shen Wenjiao, who came from a wealthy family. He asked in a gloomy tone, "Manny..."

Even at this moment, Zhang Ruolin wanted to maintain his last bit of self-esteem. He didn't want to say that the biggest reason Xu Manni chose him was because he was an easy person to control.

"To be honest, I'm a little curious too. Why did Miss Xu suddenly choose you, Zhang, to marry? Did you come to save the damsel in distress? You know, Miss Xu used to be a movie star. She's worth much more than me. She even owns a building that she collects rent from. Even if she doesn't do anything in the future, she can still live a comfortable life."

To be honest, everyone in the building was curious about this. After all, no matter what Miss Xu did before, she is now a wealthy woman, so why is she suddenly getting married? The most unexpected thing is that she actually chose a rickshaw driver. It's really unexpected!

Shen Wenjiao's words were like a knife stabbing into Zhang Ruolin's chest. He couldn't help but cover his chest and stare at this dumb girl.

"But since Miss Xu chose you, Zhang, she must have seen your strengths. It would be nice if you could live a good life with her in the future~"

Shen Wenjiao never thought that anyone should sacrifice their life for the country. People want to live a stable life, so they can't force others to engage in revolution and be undercover! People are not NPS who can set their life emotions at will. Everyone has their own ideas.

Zhang Ruolin nodded secretly. That’s right. Miss Xu had so many choices. Since she chose him, he must have some advantages that she hadn’t noticed.

By the way, even if he fails now, it would be nice for him to work hard to become Manny’s support in the future!

"Ahem, Miss Feng, what are you doing here?"

Let’s not talk about anything else about Zhang Ruolin. Ever since he decided to live a good life, he has always spoken to Shen Wenjiao in this tone, like a polite neighbor.

"Oh, I'm here to deliver the manuscript. Manager Qi said I'll just give it to you later. If it's okay, remember to bring me the manuscript fee tomorrow."

Damn, Zhang Ruolin is a dishonest guy. She was kind enough to comfort him! He actually changed the subject. How unkind! Forget it. The manuscript fee is more important. Gossip can be talked about anytime.

Zhang Ruolin looked at the densely written manuscript handed to him, feeling a little embarrassed, not knowing whether to take it.

His face flushed, and he said in a self-deprecating voice, "I'm not very literate, why don't you wait until tomorrow and I'll give it to Agent Qi to take a look at."

Shen Wenjiao looked at Zhang Ruolin in surprise. No way! Brother, you were considered an intelligence officer at the beginning! How did you do your job if you can't read?

"That's not right! Didn't you say at the beginning that you played the piano in a western restaurant? How could you be illiterate?"

Shen Wenjiao thought about the time and effort she had spent to contact this guy in the first place. Didn't he say that he had worked as a pianist in a western restaurant for a while?

Speaking of this, Zhang Ruolin was full of resentment and had nowhere to vent it. Shen Wenjiao happened to ask about it, and he also complained a little bit.

"What kind of pianist is that? I only know five pieces of music, which I memorized by rote. I learned each piece from a runaway boy for 20 dollars. It was very expensive. Luckily, I was from a theatre troupe, so I can remember the melody."

Zhang Ruolin felt frustrated when he thought about this. "At first, I thought I could make more money by working as a pianist, at least to make back what I spent. Who knew ~ Oh ~ I lost a lot!"

"I was sold to a theatre troupe when I was little. How could I have the chance to learn to read? I was lucky enough to have enough food and water to survive. As for joining..."

Zhang Ruolin paused here, glanced at Shen Wenjiao, and didn't explain it clearly.

"Just following my brother~"

As for how Senior Brother Zhang Ruolin was doing now, Shen Wenjiao was sensible and did not ask any further questions.

At this time, Shen Wenjiao was somewhat confronted with the touching literacy rate of the Republic of China, and she also understood why it was so difficult for her own Red Party to develop at the beginning! Everyone was too poor, and it was not easy to survive.

Shen Wenjiao vaguely remembered that if someone in the underground party was injured, they would need everyone to help raise money to buy some medicine. It was really difficult for everyone! Speaking of which, if she could help send more funds, it would probably be of great help!

"How about I teach you? It's easy to just learn to read~"

After all, we have known each other for a while. In the future, maybe a lot of my royalties will depend on Zhang Ruolin, Shen Wenjiao couldn't help but say kindly.

Anyway, it’s not that difficult to teach people to read.

"Really, thank you. Ms. Feng, if you need me in the future, just ask me directly. I, Zhang Ruolin, would not be a man if I hesitated."

Shen Wenjiao only believed this on the surface. In fact, she didn't really trust Zhang Ruolin in her heart. There was nothing she could do. This guy had a previous experience.
