Siheyuan: Starting from the Old Society

This night was another happy night for both body and mind.

Tomorrow morning, Yang Yueyue asked to go directly to the newspaper office. She would tell President Zhou the news and ask him to send someone to the designated place to pick her up.

Parking at the same spot outside the newspaper office, getting off the car at the same time, the same two people meeting, the same gesture of support, the same belly caressing, the same envious eyes.

Chen Ruoting no longer worried about the relationship between her husband and Yang Yueyue. At most, it was just another person adding to the family, so she decided to let nature take its course.

As soon as Yang Yueyue arrived at the newspaper office, she went to Zhou Zhiguo's office and said, "President Zhou has been rescued. He is in the courtyard of No. 35, Houhai Lane 3. Please send someone to pick him up."

"By the way, my friend said that Zhang Daming's identity has been exposed, and he should be arranged to leave the capital as soon as possible."

She said quickly. Zhou Zhiguo hesitated for a moment after hearing this, and looked at Yang Yueyue's anxious expression before he said in a worried tone:

"Yueyue, tell me the truth. Who is your friend? Does he really have the power to save Damin?"

"He told you that Zhang Daming's identity had been exposed. Did he say what identity had been exposed?"

what?

What?

Yang Yueyue was stunned for a moment.

She had never thought about these questions and had never responded to them.

Because she had great faith in Lin Sian's character and was immersed in a sweet love, she let her guard down and didn't even notice such a simple problem.

If, if he was lying to me, then, then his intention would be terrible.

But Sian won't lie to me!

The best proof of this was that he was willing to take a big risk to help me hide that precious jewel necklace the night before last!

Yang Yueyue still chose to trust Lin Sian.

Zhou Zhiguo had been observing Yang Yueyue, and seeing her changing expressions, he knew that she was definitely not aware of these problems.

Ugh!

It seems that Yueyue has a very close relationship with her friend and she didn't even notice these obvious problems.

Love is something that can easily make people blind!

I think I am thoughtful enough. Work is work and should not be mixed with personal feelings!

"No, I haven't thought about it."

"But President Zhou, I firmly believe that he will not deceive me."

Yang Yueyue said solemnly.

"Yueyue, as fighters on the secret front, our first principle is to ensure our own safety. Only when we are safe can we continue to advance the revolutionary cause."

"If we can't even guarantee our own safety, how can we carry out our work?"

"You have to understand that we are a team. If one person in the team has a problem, it is likely to implicate all of us. Therefore, I cannot unconditionally trust someone whose background is unknown like you do."

These words were spoken quite seriously, and were obviously full of doubts about Yang Yueyue's friend.

"Can you understand my concern?"

"I, I can!"

Yang Yueyue lowered her head.

She could fully understand Zhou Zhiguo's concerns, because he knew nothing about her friend. From his perspective, it was natural for him to be vigilant and cautious.

"So, now can you tell me about your friend's background?"

Zhou Zhiguo was afraid that she would feel uneasy because of breaking her promise to her friend, so he solemnly assured her:

"Yueyue, you know me well. After you tell me, I promise not to leak his information and will not embarrass you."

"This, okay!"

Yang Yueyue also has great trust in veteran comrade Zhou Zhiguo.

Tell him it should be fine.

"My friend is Lin Sian, a shareholder of Feixiang Machinery Factory. I met him when I interviewed him on the day the machinery factory opened."

"He is knowledgeable and has unique insights into national affairs. At the same time, he hates the corruption in the current government and is an ambitious person. I can see that he shares the same ideal with us, which is to make our country stronger."

Yang Yueyue unknowingly said a lot of good things about Lin Sian, hoping to gain points for him in front of Zhou Zhiguo.

However, she did not notice that a strange expression flashed across Zhou Zhiguo's face when he heard Lin Sian's name.

It turned out to be Lin Sian!

He is Chen Ruoting's husband!

I didn’t expect that he was still in contact with Yueyue!

It seems that he doesn't want Chen Ruoting and I to know, so he asked Yueyue to keep his identity secret!

And he might also know Yueyue’s identity!

Others avoid underground organizations!

He is fine, as long as you look good, he doesn’t care who you are!

Zhou Zhiguo secretly despised him in his heart, but remained calm on the surface.

"Ah sneeze!!!"

At the same time, in a small house on the outskirts of the city, Lin Sian, who had just released a carrier pigeon, suddenly sneezed.

"Who is talking about me behind my back?"

He muttered somewhat dissatisfiedly.

Zhou Zhiguo collected his thoughts, looked at Yang Yueyue and said, "Oh, it's Lin Sian!"

Zhou Zhiguo felt relieved when he heard Lin Sian's name.

The organization had received generous donations from him before and sent a special telegram to praise him.

"President Zhou, so you know Si'an!" Yang Yueyue finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It will be easy if we know each other!

And it seems that Zhou Zhiguo also trusts Lin Sian!

"How should I put it, he..."

He couldn't say that he was Chen Ruoting's husband. After all, Lin Si'an had told Yang Yueyue not to reveal his identity, so she couldn't expose him.

"He is indeed a trustworthy friend. He often provides financial support to us and is a patriotic entrepreneur."

Not only did Zhou Zhiguo not expose the truth, he also praised Lin Sian.

But he felt a little uncomfortable because this guy was obviously pursuing Yang Yueyue.

"Really? That's great!"

When Yang Yueyue heard that Lin Sian had been secretly supporting the organization, she became even more attracted to him.

She was also thinking about whether she could persuade Lin Sian to join the organization so that she could marry him legitimately.

We are all revolutionary comrades, so why should we be afraid of harm?

☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆

In a quiet courtyard pavilion, a man and a woman sat opposite each other, with a small table between them.

On the table was a pot of mellow wine, two exquisite porcelain cups, and several plates of exquisite snacks.

"Mr. Kato, do you have any news about the latest developments in the capital?" the woman asked.

She has a beautiful face, cherry red lips, and her hair is elegantly combed behind her head, revealing a jade-like neck.

Even though she was wearing a kimono, it was hard to conceal her graceful figure.

Hearing the woman's question, the short and fat middle-aged man with two mustaches on his lips paused for a moment and responded:

“Ms. Meili, we have lost a number of outstanding spies recently, and the situation in the capital is gradually becoming difficult to control.

"Especially the loss of contact with Wu Fan, Liu Sheng and Gu Youtian has greatly reduced our resources. Many intelligence gathering and subversion operations have been hindered. Now our work is becoming more and more difficult." He sighed, somewhat helpless.

The loss of contact with Wu Fan, Liu Sheng and Gu Youtian almost brought our intelligence work to a standstill.

Our intelligence activities often rely on elegant ladies and the necessary financial support. Now that we have lost these three key figures, our work has indeed encountered considerable challenges.

It’s no wonder that Mr. Kato lamented like this.
