"Don't rush to refuse. Go back and think about it carefully. I'll be here again tomorrow at this time, waiting for you to give me a satisfactory answer."

Shotaro had been inside for quite some time, and fearing that lingering any longer would arouse suspicion from his entourage, he pushed open the wooden partition door.

"I really have to thank Ruan for giving us the opportunity to meet. Well then, Director Zheng, see you tomorrow."

He should have kept quiet. But thinking of Ruan Xianxian, Zheng Hongkuan's face turned pale and then red. If it weren't for what that other party had done, he wouldn't have ended up like this.

"Wait a minute." Thinking of this, he called out to Shotaro. He hadn't decided whether to cooperate with the Japanese yet, but there was something he could entrust to Shotaro.

"The cost price of the winter coat is $30. They were all cheated by the translator surnamed Ruan. Furthermore, the so-called winter coat is just cotton replaced with duck down."

Please, Mr. Kano, find an opportunity to leak this information to foreign guests who are interested in winter clothing.

Shotaro Kane was taken aback, not expecting this turn of events, and casually agreed.

Whether or not the event will be held is another matter. Revealing the bottom price of the winter coat at this time is tantamount to admitting that he has a close relationship with the senior management of the textile factory.

Do they really think the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the organizers of this event are just sitting around doing nothing?

What other foreign guests didn't know was that since he set foot on this land, China had been keeping a close eye on him, almost monitoring him 24/7.

He wasn't going to reveal his true colors until he achieved his goal.

Once things are successful, he wouldn't mind revealing the information he's obtained. Regardless of Zheng Hongkuan, as long as it's detrimental to this land, he'd be happy to see it happen.

The two left the men's restroom one after the other, and neither of them noticed that the innermost stall door opened silently after they left.

Miyano held Ruan Xianxian in his arms in an odd posture.

Unfortunately, even though the toilet in the textile factory, which was specifically for guests, was well-renovated, there was still a large open space under the partition, and if you put your foot down, the two people next to you would see you.

Then, the space below was empty, and the space above was also empty. The space available for hiding was already small, and to make matters worse, Miyano was holding one in her arms.

While the two people next to them are having a big meeting, the two of them, who are hugging each other like koalas, are having a small meeting.

"Bolinggai, Bolinggai poked my butt!"

"No, where are you putting your hands?"

After the two men left, the door to the cubicle opened, and Ruan Xianxian, who had jumped off Gong Ye, felt as if she had been granted a pardon.

She looked at the closed door again, a meaningful smile playing on her lips.

Reaching out, Miyano tugged at his leg, which was a little numb: "You deliberately lured Shotaro here to hook up with Zheng Hongkuan, didn't you?"

Gongye did not deny it, and pulled the little fairy to the basin to wash her hands: "The old man found out that there is a force stirring up trouble in Heilongjiang Province."

The target was the howitzer that was about to be completed at the machine factory.

Relying solely on foreign enemy agents to launch an attack from the outside would not only fail to achieve the objective, but would make it difficult to even cause a disturbance.

Therefore, they need an inside man to coordinate with the enemy from the outside.

Ruan Xianxian pondered: "Is this some kind of commotion caused by the little one again?"

Miyano hummed in agreement: "Their original target was a foreman at the machine factory; their plan to kidnap his family and threaten him was already prepared."

"When Zheng Hongkuan's scandal happened halfway through, I went along with it and found them a new partner, which was a way of making use of what they had."

This guy is pretty smart when he's not having a brain fart.

She didn't ask why they didn't close the net since they had grasped the enemy's plans. Ruan Xianxian already knew the answer: they were playing the long game and catching a big fish, and then wiped out this entire hideout in one fell swoop.

She pointed out the window: "You go back and follow Nei Tuo Xiang. I'll take care of Zheng Hongkuan."

"No way!" Miyano refused without hesitation. "It's too dangerous! Zheng Hongkuan has someone secretly watching him, you..."

He wanted to suggest taking the girl back to the hotel so the foreign guests could entertain her, but when his girlfriend grabbed his hand, he suddenly felt a sharp pain and looked up in surprise.

Ruan Xianxian smiled and said, "What? Go on!"

Being in a special department, how could Miyano not sense anything unusual about his partner's power? From the moment they reunited, he sensed something special about Ruan Xianxian.

He wouldn't delve into it unless she brought it up herself.

"Please!" His girlfriend started tugging at his sleeve again, pleading with him, her big, expressive eyes blinking reproachfully.

"Have you forgotten who's the horse and who's the general between us?"

After repeatedly confirming that his little fairy's strength alone was enough to smash Zheng Hongkuan's skull into his neck with a single punch, he compromised:

"I'll transfer the people around Zheng Hongkuan away, and I'll be careful myself."

As for why the person in question wanted to follow Zheng Hongkuan, Gong Ye raised his hand to brace himself against the window frame, leaped out, and landed on a tree trunk not far from the window.

Once the mission is complete, he will help the fairy apply for a third-class merit award. As for the rest... does it matter?

After each had their assigned tasks, and seeing Gong Ye land safely, Ruan Xianxian sneaked out of the men's restroom. Just as she was about to open the door, she suddenly heard footsteps outside and the sound of two men talking.

She immediately bought a bottle of invisibility potion and took it, disappearing from the spot in the next instant.

So when the two men who came to the toilet together were still some distance away from the door, the door suddenly opened by itself.

The two tall, burly men looked at each other, one of them taking a step back and giving a dry laugh:

"Well! My wife is urging me to conserve water, so I'll hold my pee now and save it for when I get home to wash the dishes."

companion:???

Do you want to listen to what you're saying?

He was a bold man, and casually said, "It's just the wind."

After saying that, he pushed open the door, and sure enough, the bathroom window was open.

He cast a mocking glance at his companion who had caught up, "What? Not leaving any for your wife?"

Ruan Xianxian, intending to play a prank, quickly found Zheng Hongkuan, who hadn't gone far, and as usual, plopped down in the back seat.

But this traitor was clearly much less courageous than "Ruan Shimei." As soon as he felt something on the back seat, he yelled "Oh my god!" and threw down the bicycle, scrambling and rolling to press his back against the wall.

Ruan Xianxian, who almost got thrown out of the car: ? ? ?

Zheng Hongkuan stared intently at the bicycle whose wheels were still turning in the middle of the alley. After confirming that it was a false alarm, he picked the bicycle up again.

I dared not ride it anymore, so I pushed it all the way home.

Fortunately, the family compound was not far from the factory, and Zheng Hongkuan lived on the third floor.

The saying goes: the first floor is dirty, the second floor is messy, the third and fourth floors are for high-ranking officials, and the fifth and sixth floors are for poor people.

The Zheng family home is spacious and decorated in a vintage style. The bedroom has no door; instead, a half-length printed curtain separates the bedroom from the living room.

He casually tossed aside his briefcase, crossed his arms and pressed them against his forehead, then sat silently on the sofa.

From Ruan Xianxian's perspective, one can see his face sometimes contorted with rage, sometimes gritting his teeth, a mixture of regret and helplessness, which ultimately transforms into a resolute determination to burn one's bridges.

"You all forced me to do this."

Looking at the framed portrait of his eldest son hanging on the wall, he said this, then got up and started disassembling the sofa...

A moment later, they brought out a wooden box the size of an urn.

Ruan Xianxian exclaimed, "Wow! You've already found yourself a home so quickly?"
