The heart of the pretender is sincere

The next day, when Lingxi came to the restaurant for breakfast, she found that everyone was sitting on the chairs upright but did not intend to start eating. The atmosphere was very strange. The eldest sister had an unhappy expression as if she was holding back her anger. Ask him what's going on with his eyes.

Ah Cheng shook his head and didn't speak, but just looked at Mingtai's position to indicate that she had something to do with Mingtai.

Lingxi looked at the empty seats in the Ming Terrace, did he not come back last night, or did he go out early in the morning?Lingxi is actually a bit hungry now, she didn't have a chance to eat two bites at the dance party last night, but now everyone doesn't move their chopsticks and she can't eat alone.

Ming Jing looked at the tables, big and small, and it would not be a problem to accompany her to wait for Mingtai, she rubbed her temples, "You guys have breakfast first, I'm not hungry, I'll wait for Mingtai."

Minglou filled a bowl of porridge and brought it to the elder sister, "Don't worry, elder sister, they probably drank too much alcohol at the class reunion, and they might not be able to come back after the martial law was enforced last night. I think they should be back soon .”

Ming Jing took Minglou's porridge bowl and put it down again, "It was so chaotic outside last night, I should have gone with him last night, and you didn't ask him which hotel the classmate reunion was at, it's too shameful not to go home at night. "

Ming Lou sighed, "If I ask him, he can tell me, that's all right, big sister, he is old enough to know what to do and what not to do, he was crazy when he was in Hong Kong and Paris, and he never saw you like this worried."

"That's what I can't see..."

Ming Jing wanted to say something more, when Ah Xiang's voice came from outside, calling out to Young Master, you are back, where did you go last night.

"Is Mingtai back? Is Mingtai back?" Hearing this, Mingjing hurriedly got up and walked a few steps to the living room. He saw Mingtai's clothes were wrinkled and dirty, and his hair was messed up, looking embarrassed. It was so bad, I wanted to be furious and my words were on the verge of my mouth, but I didn't want Mingtai to kneel on the ground and not speak, just lowered his head and wept, and the teardrops fell on the floor one by one, not to mention the mirror, Minglou and Ah Cheng felt distressed seeing it.

All Mingjing's anger dissipated the moment she saw Mingtai's tears, she hurried forward to help Mingtai up, but Mingtai just knelt on the ground and refused to move, crying while saying, "I'm sorry, big sister, I Shouldn't be staying out at night, I shouldn't be fighting, but I can't help it."

When it comes to fighting bright mirrors, Ming Lou motions to Ah Cheng to come forward to help Ming Tai sit on the sofa with the eldest sister, and then looks at Ah Xiang and Aunt Gui who are standing awkwardly aside, thinking about having breakfast like this If he couldn't eat enough, he ordered the two to go further away, after all, he still wanted to save face for Mingtai.

When Lingxi came out of the restaurant, she took two slices of toast, and now Ah Cheng was standing beside her after helping Mingtai, she pulled the corner of Ah Cheng's clothes and handed him a slice, Ah Cheng sighed and shook his head, He really couldn't bear Mingtai's appearance.Lingxi pursed her lips and took a bite, if she hadn't seen him well last night, she would have almost been fooled by Mingtai's tricks.

Mingtai wiped his eyes with his sleeve, still gasping for breath, "Sister, I'm fine, I won't play with those classmates anymore, if you don't have friends, you don't have friends, big brother is much more important than friends, I can No friends but no big brother."

"What's going on?" The more Mingtai heard these words, the more confused he became. Mingjing was very anxious. Could it be that this matter has something to do with Minglou?

Mingtai glanced at his elder brother, and the tears couldn't stop falling. He grabbed Ming Jing's hand, "My classmates said, my elder brother is a traitor, and I am a family member of a traitor. They all refused to play with me. It was like this in school. They called on all the students in the school to isolate me and exclude me. I tried to find teachers but it was useless. The teachers looked down on me and would not help me. They also said that it was my own problems that caused my bad popularity. It was my own self-reflection. I was not invited to the classmate reunion yesterday, but I insisted on going. I went to argue with them, saying that although my eldest brother works in the government, he must not be a traitor, otherwise my eldest sister will be the first to let go. I passed him, but they didn't believe it, and finally fought."

"These children, what are you talking about? How can you talk like that? And those teachers are too much." Mingjing didn't know what to say for a while, but seeing Mingtai crying like this made her feel too uncomfortable. Minglou It's not true that traitors are still misunderstood by people outside, and the family members are also affected by this matter. She almost said it, but she still held back when it came to her lips. Matters related to the righteousness of the country are also for the sake of justice. Considering the safety of her family, she really had no choice but to discuss it with Minglou again to see if she should just tell Mingtai.

Mingtai lowered his head and pondered for a long time before raising his head to look at Minglou, with tears still in his eyes, "Brother, are you worthy of my trust?"

"You just have to remember that no matter where I go, I'm your big brother. What you have to do now is to study hard. It's not for you or me to judge right and wrong." Ming Lou put away his worried expression, he was almost caught by this The kid was lied to, if he didn't know that he was arrested by Wang Tianfeng and went to the military academy, if he didn't know that yesterday he didn't have a class reunion to go to the Navy Club, he would have almost believed his nonsense.

Ah Cheng was really worried about Mingtai. Now that he knew that he had been cheated, he immediately had the urge to hit someone. He turned his head and saw that there was only half of Lingxi's two pieces of toast left, so he tore it off from her hand. Halfway through, he was really hungry.

Mingtai imagined many kinds of big brother's answer, but there is no such thing as not answering or explaining, the big brother's eyes were full of distress a moment ago, why are his eyes so cold now, what is the problem?Mingtai decided to change his partner. He looked at Mingjing with tears welling up in his eyes, "Elder Sister, can I trust Eldest Brother?"

Ming Jing hugged Mingtai with distress, "Silly boy, no matter what job your elder brother does, he will always be your elder brother. This will never be changed. You just study hard and don't think about other things." Don't think about it."

Mingtai felt that today's scene was a waste of crying. Neither the eldest brother nor the eldest sister gave him any useful answers. Last night, he thought about the trick all night, and he took Miss Huizi to crumple the clothes together and rolled them on the ground. Two laps made me look a little more embarrassed. I didn't expect to be taken over by the elder brother with a word, and the elder sister didn't answer his question directly.Moreover, he couldn't bear to see his eldest sister anxious and distressed. He subconsciously glanced at Lingxi. After receiving his gaze, Lingxi glared back. What are you doing looking at her at this time? Let the elder brother find out later After that, everyone has no good fruit to eat.

Both Minglou and Acheng saw the eye contact between the two. Acheng remembered the four forgivenesses that Lingxi and Mingtai talked about in the living room on the first day of the first day, while Minglou was a little suspicious. There is credit for Lingxi, but there is no evidence for suspicion, "Okay, I didn't come back all night and I got into a fight, are you injured?"

"No." Mingtai didn't want his sister to worry, so he answered truthfully.

Minglou glanced at Mingtai with disgust, "If you don't have it, go change your clothes and have breakfast, your whole body is covered in dirt."

This matter was so perfunctory, and Ming Jing was relieved when he heard Mingtai said that he was not injured. She took Mingtai upstairs to change clothes and asked Axiang to cook ginger soup. Minglou, Acheng and Lingxi returned Restaurant for breakfast.

***

In the afternoon, Ah Cheng went to see Uncle Li, the person in charge of Yan'an in Shanghai today. Chen Bing's method of death was clean and neat, and it looked like he was familiar with it, but neither the military commander nor Yan'an had ever issued a clearing order. , They guessed that there is a high probability that there is no way to report in time when an emergency occurs.

"Uncle Li told me that Cheng Jinyun went to the navy club with a military command agent yesterday. This military command agent is probably Mingtai, because Cheng had stolen information from Chen Bing before, so Chen Bing recognized him this time and had no choice but to After getting the killer, she hid with Mingtai in the bathroom of Chen Xuanyu's lounge, and was almost discovered by the Japanese. Fortunately, a girl helped them, and the two of them were able to escape. According to her, this girl was Ling Xi."

"Now Cheng suspects that Lingxi is also a member of the military commander. The reason for the suspicion is that Gao Mu came in to search the house, and Chen Xuanyu didn't dare to say anything. It was Lingxi who stopped Gao Mu, so Gao Mu didn't pay attention to the situation in the bathroom; It was Lingxi who went to the bathroom to wash his hands. He was not surprised when he saw Mingtai, and he seemed to be very familiar with it. He was not very scared when he saw the blood on Cheng's face. Yes; I saw that handkerchief, it's Lingxi's handkerchief."

Ah Cheng is having a headache now, if Lingxi is really a member of the military command, it's not too bad, and then he will work hard to instigate rebellion, but he is afraid that if it is the central command, he dare not think about it.

Minglou knew what Ah Cheng was thinking by looking at Ah Cheng's expression, "Don't be so pessimistic, Lingxi was already familiar with Mingtai, and she had a better relationship with Mingtai before returning to China, and Mingtai cried today Thinking about it, there was Lingxi's handwriting in this scene, so she would naturally help when she saw acquaintances, and didn't Lingxi say that she is the eldest sister's assistant, just an ordinary person."

"Brother, have you forgotten? She helped us a lot in France. In Hong Kong, she was able to help me deal with the aftermath when she first met me. She saved the things in safe No. 231. My eldest sister went to Suzhou and was arrested by 76 people." She was the first to notice us when she was caught, and she can accurately disassemble the gun. In addition to this incident, apart from her occasional temper tantrums, she is more often than some of our well-trained agents. She is more calm and rational, no matter how you look at it, she can't be just an ordinary citizen."

Ming Lou couldn't find a reason to explain it for a while, "Why don't you just ask directly, don't try any more, just ask straightforwardly, you and Lingxi are going to get married in the future, and you can't keep secrets from each other when you get married. .”

"Then what if Lingxi asks me too, can I tell her our identities?"

"It can be said that at the level of Chongqing, the eldest sister already knows the identity of this level, and she guessed a lot, so it doesn't matter to tell Lingxi."

Ah Cheng nodded, "Okay, I understand. There is one more thing. Yesterday Liang Zhongchun told me that Nan Tian had a chess piece called Lone Wolf, which was given to Wang Manchun by Nan Tian as an informant. I heard that this Lone Wolf has lurked to us. people around."

"Lone Wolf..." Minglou said the code name, "Since this Lone Wolf is from Nantian, we still have to start from Nantian to find her information."

"Yes, I'll see if I can look for an opportunity to look through Nantian's office."

***

In the evening, Ah Cheng was sitting on the head of Lingxi's bed with a hair dryer to help her dry her hair. Lingxi was lying on Ah Cheng's lap with her eyes closed, enjoying Ah Cheng's service, thinking that it would save money not to blow her hair by herself in winter It's a big deal, and it would be even better if there was a massage chair.

After thinking about it for a long time, Ah Cheng decided to come to Lingxi and ask her about her identity. He felt that if he didn't ask, he wouldn't be able to sleep tonight or even in the future. So I took the initiative to take the job of drying my hair.In the past, Ah Cheng just touched the top of Lingxi's head, but now his fingers are running through her hair, the soft and smooth feeling is like stroking the fine silk, which makes Ah Cheng love it.

Lingxi found that Ah Cheng really liked her long hair, and she didn't know if men were obsessed with long hair and waist, but she felt that regardless of whether it was obsession or not, she would just let it go if she didn't stop it. , Ah Cheng estimated that he could touch it all night, she opened her eyes and looked at Ah Cheng, "Brother Ah Cheng, if you touch it again, I have to wash my hair tomorrow."

Ah Cheng looked at Lingxi's serious expression, and burst out laughing. Seeing that his hair had already been dried, he turned off the hair dryer, rolled it up, put it on her bedside table, and pulled her up from his lap. Looking at her seriously, "Lingxi, I ask you a question, can you answer me truthfully?"

It's rare to see Ah Cheng so formal, Lingxi simply sat cross-legged, and nodded formally, "Well, you ask."

"Which faction do you belong to, Lingxi? Chongqing or Yan'an? If it's Chongqing, is it the Central Command or the Military Command?" Asking this question, Ah Cheng was actually very disturbed. The outsider revealed his identity, and he only dared to ask today with the consent of his elder brother.He has already figured out that Lingxi will definitely be in trouble, and he may not tell him, or he may give some hints after hesitation. If this is the case, he can only rely on Lingxi and his own affection to play the emotional card.

"I'm neither." Lingxi actually guessed that Ah Cheng would ask this question one day, but she didn't expect this question to come so soon, she was still making insinuations yesterday and asked it outright today.

"What?" Ah Cheng couldn't believe it. He didn't believe that Lingxi really didn't have any hidden identity, and he didn't believe that she answered her question so easily without any strings attached.

"I said, I didn't join any party organization, whether it's Chongqing or Yan'an, I don't belong to any party. I'm just the assistant of my elder sister and Li Lingxi. I don't have any code name, no alias and mission. I'm just an ordinary citizen."

"Really?"

"100% fidelity."

The big stone in Ah Cheng's heart suddenly fell, he suppressed the ecstasy in his heart and pulled Lingxi into his arms, the corners of his mouth unconsciously raised and opened a wide arc.

"Aren't you and elder brother in command?" Lingxi stayed in Ah Cheng's arms with peace of mind, her fingers grabbing the corner of his clothes.

"Yes." Ah Cheng let go of Lingxi, and the smile on his face still didn't put away, "You know I'm so worried that you are not in the same camp as me. Fortunately, you have no other identity, but Li Lingxi who belongs to me."

Lingxi couldn't hold back her smile when she looked at Ah Cheng, and she didn't want to pour cold water on Ah Cheng when he was happy, but the issue of principle still needs to be clarified. "But Brother Ah Cheng, I want to tell you that although I haven't joined any party, my heart is towards Yan'an. I just haven't joined the party. I won't join Chongqing with you, even if we get married in the future. It is also impossible to join Chongqing, you know, I will even try my best to instigate you to let you join Yan'an."

"Ah?!" Ah Cheng was startled by Lingxi's words, he really wanted to tell her that they were both red and there was no need for her to instigate rebellion, "How can anyone speak of instigating rebellion so openly."

"I trust you so I tell you bluntly, and I am also afraid that you will be disappointed when you have expectations of me, so I have to tell you first that I will not join you. In line with the principle of the Anti-Japanese National United Front, I can help but My heart is red."

Ah Cheng was moved by Yu Lingxi's trust, but he didn't understand where her belief came from, "Why are you so determined to choose red?"

"This may be related to the environment I lived in since I was a child. My grandfather, parents and grandmother are all party members. The education I have received since childhood is to love the country, the party and the family. I also wanted to join the party, but then my father passed away. , Some things happened one after another at home. I was overwhelmed with dealing with these, and the rest of the time was devoted to going abroad. It was even more inconvenient to join the party abroad. After returning home, I followed my eldest sister. There was a chance to join in the middle, but in the end I gave up."

"Why?" Ah Cheng didn't understand.

Lingxi thought for a while about how to answer this question, "I'm afraid that I will cause trouble to my eldest sister. You must know that at that time you were not in the Ming mansion, only my eldest sister and I were alone. If something happened to me, my eldest sister would definitely bear the brunt of the investigation. I'm not afraid of death." I'm not afraid to go out on missions, but my life was saved by my elder sister, so I can't cause trouble to her. Once I join, I will definitely accept mission assignments and may even be transferred away from Shanghai. These are not what I want to see I want to stay with my eldest sister to protect her, so what I can do is to work hard to make money, after all, compared to the current Yan'an in Chongqing, it is still too poor."

Ah Cheng understood Lingxi's choice a little bit. He lowered his head and kissed her on the forehead, and then remembered the clumsy beauty trick yesterday, "Then why did you suddenly want to seduce me yesterday? Could it be that you instigated rebellion from a beauty?" It’s a plan, it looks a little bit interesting but it doesn’t look like it, I was almost scared to death by you.”

"You asked me first. I just want to tell you that I am really an ordinary person. This is the best I can do. I don't know anything else, and it's not a beauty trick. I just watched it from the movie. On a whim, I wanted to try it on you. I can't try it on others, how could I know that you didn't react at all, huh!" Regarding the fact that such a trick didn't work, Lingxi expressed that she was attracted to her own charm Doubt, think about it, Ah Cheng is too liuxiahui.

"What movie scale is so big?"

"What's the scale of this? Isn't it just rubbing and rubbing? Then you haven't seen those..." Suddenly remembering the current year, Lingxi braked quickly, but luckily she didn't say anything bigger. Just looking at Ah Cheng's expression is already very intriguing.

Ah Cheng raised his eyebrows, "Which ones have I not seen?"

"Just... hehe... nothing much, the scale was indeed a bit big yesterday, I promise I won't watch those movies in the future..."

"It's not that you can't watch it." Ah Cheng hugged Lingxi into his arms, lowered his head and covered her ears, "In the future, if there are more movies like this, let's watch them together, and after watching them, you will learn all the things you have learned." Try it on me, I promise you will try it until you are satisfied..."

Ah Cheng's kiss has slowly moved down from the ear to the neck. Lingxi felt that if she didn't stop it, something might happen. She wanted to push Ah Cheng away but couldn't push it away at all, "Let's talk again, Ah Cheng Brother, it's late, you should go back, I'm going to rest..."

"It's so late, it's not until 08:30, I'll leave if you promise me."

"Okay, I promise you... um..."

Originally, on New Year's Eve, Ah Cheng said to restrain himself, but who could bear the warmth and soft jade in his arms? Sure enough, his self-control for Lingxi did not exceed a week, so he felt that he had to speed up the progress, otherwise he was really afraid. One day, I couldn't help it anymore, and I ate Lingxi until there was no bone left.

The author has something to say:

Chapter 17 was changed a little bit, Lingxi gave Cheng Jinyun the handkerchief, but I forgot when writing it, and added a scene where Lingxi asked Ah Cheng to borrow the handkerchief.
