Chapter 1246: Fighting Side by Side

Gao Zheng saw his beloved woman looking at him tenderly. He smiled at her and held her hand. "Why don't you sleep a little longer?"

Tang Jingyue said, "I woke up."

"Did you come home late last night?

I remember I was waiting for you in the living room."

"I came back late from the class meeting yesterday."

Gao Zheng sat up and hugged her in his arms, saying softly, "Go to bed early when I'm not back. Don't wait for me. You'll catch a cold if you sleep on the sofa. You can't catch a cold now."

"I can't sleep until you come back."

The main concern is for his safety, fearing that he might go out on a mission again.

Gao Zheng felt happy but also guilty that his wife was so dependent on him.

He hugged her and said, "Wife, you have to get used to it. This is the nature of my job. I often leave early and come back late. You are pregnant now, so you must make sure you get enough rest. Don't wait for me in the future. Just go to bed obediently, okay?"

Tang Jingyue said sullenly, "I'm worried about you."

"I'm having a meeting in this unit. What do I have to worry about?"

He touched her head and said, "It's okay. For you and the baby, I will protect myself."

Gao Zheng looked at the worried expression of the person in his arms. He couldn't tell him that he might have to go on a business trip next.

There was no way to tell them what was going on with Ye Bin.

Ye Bin and Jia Hui received a very important clue. They held a meeting all night last night and decided to go to C㹐 immediately.

As the captain, he should bear the brunt of the responsibility.

More importantly, Ye Bin has always had a single line of contact with him, and he knows the situation there better than other comrades, so he is the best candidate.

If it were in the past, he would have never looked back.

But now, besides his wife, he has more important concerns.

His wife also has a child.

He began to fear death.

Afraid of getting hurt, afraid that his loved ones would be sad for him.

In the end, Gao Zheng was unable to speak.

After getting up, he drove Tang Jingyue to the company, and then drove to find Gu Jingchuan.

Logically speaking, he should not reveal work secrets to anyone, but he was actually conflicted.

I desperately want to find someone to talk to.

Besides, Gu Jingchuan and the others knew everything about Jiang Sen, so Gao Zheng broke the principle.

In addition, he came to see Gu Jingchuan for other reasons.

"Lao Gao, what's the response?

You look so serious, are you having trouble at work?"

Gao Zheng sat down in his office, glanced at the door that Gu Jingchuan had closed, and said, "There's news from Xiaobin, I have to go on a business trip."

Gu Jingchuan was excited when he heard his words, "Finally there is news?"

Gao Zheng nodded.

"Would you mind telling me?"

Because Jiang Sen was involved, Gu Jingchuan was naturally very concerned about the progress of the case.

Does he also know the rules?

Gao Zheng had no intention of hiding it from him. "Xiao Bin said that he had inquired into the gang and got clues about Jiang Sen. He now needs two different phones to get in touch with high-level people, so that he can sneak up to Jiang Sen directly."

"real?"

Gu Jingchuan was very excited to hear the news.

After all this time, there is finally some progress.

However, Ye Bin wants to sneak up to the devil Jiang Sen.

Gu Jingchuan's heart was suddenly filled with worry again.

This is not bad news.

It's too dangerous.

Gao Zheng said, "Prepare two mobile phones for me. Our company will pay for it."

Gu Jingchuan started off very generously, "No money, I'll prepare it right away."

He pondered for a few seconds and asked worriedly, "Binzi, it's very dangerous to do this. Is there no other way?"

Being an undercover agent is a matter of life and death.

Who can tell what will happen?

Gao Zheng's expression was equally heavy. "If we want to wipe them out, we can only hide deeper. I will go to C first and discuss countermeasures with them to ensure Xiaobin's personal safety."

If possible, would he replace Ye Bin?

When Gu Jingchuan heard that Gao Zheng was going to leave, he asked anxiously, "When are you leaving?

I'll go with you."

"What are you talking about? I had no choice but to do this. Why are you joining in the fun?"

Gao Zheng rolled his eyes at him, his tone harsh and full of disdain.

Gu Jingchuan also had a serious look on his face, "What are you trying to do?

I want to help you. Last time, I was too soft-hearted and left hidden dangers. I want to go with you. My identity as a businessman is easier to conceal and it is much more convenient for me to travel. Please ask your leader to take me with you. I have fully recovered and my business ability has not been lost. I will definitely not hold you back."

Gao Zheng met Gu Jingchuan's eyes at this moment and suddenly felt a little dazed.

His expression, tone, and demeanor are exactly the same as when he was in the army and applied to participate in the undercover mission?

It made him suddenly feel as if they were still a military unit.

But now, things are different.

Gu Jingchuan is a businessman.

There was no need for him to fight with him anymore.

Gao Zheng looked at Gu Jingchuan and said solemnly, "Jingchuan, this is a life on the edge of a knife, don't joke with me."

Gu Jingchuan was still like a thorn in the side, with a firm attitude, "I'm not kidding, we worked well together when we were carrying out the mission, I think I can help you."

"You can't."

Gao Zheng rejected him directly, "We are all family-oriented people. You are already a father. You should consider your family more when encountering problems.

Before you retired, I took you on missions, and in the end your legs were almost broken. If it weren't for Tang Min, you probably wouldn't have been able to stand up in your life. I have already taught you a lot, right?

Now you are a boss, you have no obligation to get involved in this mess, understand?"

"Lao Gao, you have changed."

Gu Jingchuan looked at him and spoke with a look of disappointment.

Gao Zheng did not comment on his words, "I have changed. I used to be an emotionless work machine. All I had in my mind was work and tasks. But now I have to think more."

"To be honest, I'm still conflicted inside. I think of Jingyue and the baby in her belly, and my elderly grandma, you know?

I suddenly started to be afraid of death..."

Gao Zheng said this, covering his eyes and smiling bitterly, "Even I, Gao Zheng, will be afraid of death one day."

Gu Jingchuan patted his shoulder and said, "Lao Gao, family is both a weakness and a shield."

Gao Zheng wiped his face and said, "That's enough. I've been nagging you for a while. I feel so tired. I have to go now."

Gu Jingchuan grabbed his arm and said firmly, "I'm serious. Talk to your leader and I can go with you to assist you with your work. Or I can stay away from you and we can act separately. This will also leave you a layer of protection."

"I don't want your sweet potatoes to lose their parents before they grow up. The Tang family will kill me."

Gao Zheng's face was filled with emotion. "Xiao Bin has already gotten involved in this mess, but my sister doesn't know about it yet. If she knew, she would kill me too."

He really didn't dare to drag Gu Jingchuan into the water again.

“What about you?

Your son hasn't been born yet, don't you have to rush forward?"

Gu Jingchuan looked into his eyes and asked back.
