Espionage codename: Shen Gongbao

Last night, Su Wanjia heard Xuesen's spasms and cries of pain as he drifted off to sleep in the rattan chair, and she immediately understood.

It's not that Xuesen dislikes soft mattresses.

He said that only because he felt sorry for me and wanted to give me the bed.

Throughout the entire day, Su Wanjia was so moved that she secretly shed tears several times.

How could she possibly sleep in that bed?

"What do you mean?" Wang Xuesen asked.

"From today onwards, you will sleep in the bed, and I will sleep in the wicker chair."

"You are the leader and core of our trio, so we must prioritize your rest no matter what," Su Wanjia said seriously.

"Forget it, I come from a peasant background, I can't get used to sleeping here..." Wang Xuesen waved his hand.

Stop pretending.

"Last night, I heard you screaming like a pig in pain."

"Look at yourself now, you look unwell, your eyes are dark and you've lost the sparkle you had when you came."

Su Wanjia said with heartache.

"I didn't marry Xiaolongbao..." Wang Xuesen thought to himself, then smiled gently and said, "Thank you for your concern, Miss. Let's talk about it again when your leg is healed."

"Yes, how about we sleep together?" Su Wanjia mustered up her courage and suggested.

"Great, great!" Wang Xuesen rubbed his hands together, immediately perking up.

Damn, finally I can have soup and meat!

You've misunderstood.

"I... I didn't mean that."

"I mean, let's put a tea table in the middle to separate us, and each of us can sleep at one end. That way, you can also ensure the quality of your sleep."

Su Wanjia quickly waved her hand.

"Ha, aren't you afraid of me..." Wang Xuesen said.

"If you really wanted it, you wouldn't have needed to steal my clothes. If you wanted to succeed, you would have done it already."

"After all, you have Boss Dai backing you up, so what can the Su family and I do to you?"

Su Wanjia looked at him and spoke frankly and openly.

"I know you...you like me, genuinely."

"I'm not an ungrateful person."

"I'm just not ready at all, especially with your face, Young Master Wang."

"But I feel... I can't let you suffer all the time."

"That's not fair to you."

"Let's arrange it this way."

She pursed her lips, her words becoming somewhat incoherent.

"All this nagging is just because you refuse to have a child with me," Wang Xuesen glared at her and said smugly.

"I……"

"You're so smart, that's what I meant..." Su Wanjia pouted guiltily.

"alright."

"I'll sleep with you sooner or later, and you can't escape it."

Wang Xuesen gave her a fierce look, then picked up a table and squatted on the bed to create a clear boundary between them.

in bed.

He crossed his legs and swung them around: "I remember you said that Lao Du asked us to collect information about the red tickets."

Su Wanjia said, "Yes, this is the period of united front work against Japan. Helping the red votes is equivalent to resisting Japan. That's what Lao Du said."

"good!"

"Then let me tell you, Chiang Kai-shek secretly ordered the 172nd Division of the Guangxi Clique in the Fifth War Zone to join forces with Cheng Ruhuai's troops to encircle and annihilate the Fifth Detachment of the New Fourth Army Guerrilla Force in Xiajiashan, northern Hunan, at the end of August or the beginning of September."

Wang Xuesen said.

"what!"

"It's not a collaboration between Qinghong, how come..." Su Wanjia was stunned when she heard the news.

"You're too naive. We'll have to fight sooner or later. We'll fight the Japanese while they're here, and we'll fight them even more when they're gone. We can't reach an agreement through negotiations." Wang Xuesen dispelled her thoughts.

"So what do we do now?"

"If we report this to Lao Du, wouldn't that mean the information just goes back to the boss?" Su Wanjia frowned.

"You're leaning towards the red vote?" Wang Xuesen's voice turned cold.

"My heart is set on resisting Japan, and my heart is set on conscience."

"We've just held off the Japanese and entered a stalemate on the battlefield. Both sides should cooperate more closely. How can Yamashiro fight his own compatriots at this time?" Wanjia said with dissatisfaction.

"Wan'er, your thinking is dangerous."

"Remember, never make such remarks again in front of Lao Du, no, not even to anyone, not even your family."

"Some things can only be kept in your heart; you can't even let a glance reveal them."

"Otherwise, if the Japanese don't kill us, the boss will kill us first."

Wang Xuesen jumped off the bed, turned on the light, and, holding her shoulders, stared into her beautiful eyes as he spoke, word by word.

"I...I understand." Su Wanjia was startled by his serious gaze.

She nodded: "Xuesen, what do we do now?"

"Okay, you should report this to Lao Du first."

"I will persuade Ding Mocun to sell this information on the black market."

"This news isn't very meaningful to Ding, Li, or the Japanese. If it can be exchanged for money, Ding Mocun would be very happy," Wang Xuesen thought for a moment and said.

Ding later became a major speculator.

There's nothing this guy wouldn't dare to resell—supplies, intelligence, nothing.

There's no way around it; anyone would have to work themselves to the bone to make money if they had so many mistresses.

"But if I report this to Boss Dai... won't that have an impact on us?" Su Wanjia asked, frowning.

"Won't."

"I don't know the source of this information yet. If it came from Shancheng, reporting it to Boss Dai might help us catch the mole, which would also be beneficial for our covert operations."

"We can not only be credited with meritorious service, but also demonstrate our loyalty."

"To some extent, the boss was even more wary of red tickets than the Japanese."

"This will help us continue to hide."

"The key is that we can also use this intelligence to find out Lao Du's attitude towards the red tickets."

Wang Xuesen stroked his chin and analyzed.

"All right."

"Anyway, I'll follow you wherever you go, I'll listen to you." Su Wanjia felt a strong sense of security.

"sleep."

Wang Xuesen turned off the light, suddenly kissed her on the cheek, and jumped onto the bed.

"you!"

Su Wanjia touched the lingering warmth on her face, feeling incredibly itchy with anger.

……

The next day.

Wang Xuesen got out of bed feeling completely refreshed.

Eight o'clock.

Wang Xuesen quietly went to a private room in a breakfast shop.

Soon, a young man wearing a long robe and a round hat sat down opposite him: "Young Master Wang, here are the things you wanted."

"You look great lately." Wang Xuesen took the intelligence report, glanced at it quickly, and then took out his lighter and lit it.

"That's all thanks to you."

"If you hadn't given me a hand back then and gotten me out of prison, I would have been dead long ago."

"You were the one who set up the deal for me to buy and sell intelligence."

"I am grateful to be where I am today, all thanks to my brother's kindness in saving me."

"So, how about it? Those women liked the American stuff I got last time, didn't they?"

The young man expressed his gratitude, then glanced at him sideways, raised an eyebrow, and asked smugly.

"I checked the market, and you didn't make much money on that batch of 'reliable' products, that's fair."

"I left the money at the usual spot to pay you back."

"Go back and get it."

Wang Xuesen smiled.

"No way! We're brothers. I, Qingfu, may love money, but if I were to make money off you, would I even be human?" Qingfu quickly refused.

"Old Fu, let's not waste time on the money."

"I have some information here, you can take it and sell it." Wang Xuesen leaned over and whispered a few words in his ear.

"A red ticket, huh?"

"This is worth a fortune." Qingfu took a cigarette, tapped it upside down on the table to make it solid, lit it, and took a satisfying puff.

"Does it sell well?" Wang Xuesen was quite surprised.

"certainly."

"The Red Tickets don't lack money; they have plenty of people to support them. What's difficult for them is breaking through the blockade of the Nationalist Army and the Japanese to obtain supplies and intelligence."

"Selling anything to them is a huge profit."

"If someone is paying for it, they won't even blink an eye if they can afford it."

"It just so happens that the Japanese don't really care about intelligence from No. 76. Just get it for me from now on. I know I'm familiar with their buyers," Qingfu said with a sly smile.

"OK."

"Sold it. Keep my share in the usual place. I'll pick it up when I have time," Wang Xuesen said.

"Alright, brother, you're busy." Qingfu grabbed a handful of melon seeds and prepared to leave.

"If anyone asks about our meeting, just say I was buying information about Boss Meng from the Chamber of Commerce and asking about his concubine, understand?" Wang Xuesen instructed.

"I understand."

"You spend money, isn't it all because you're thinking about women?"

Qingfu put on his hat and walked away quickly.
