Chapter 39 Using Oneself as Bait



"Hmph. Have you forgotten the golden teddy bear that an old woman gave you at the entrance of the Beijing Supply and Marketing Cooperative?"

Yu Guanghua stared intently into Ruan Qiushui's eyes, trying to confirm whether she had truly failed to discover the information inside.

"So, from the thugs on the train to the idiot duo in the alley, and then the short guy and you, you're all here for the teddy bear?"

Ruan Qiushui sat up straight, finally figuring out the key point.

She said she wasn't particularly unlucky, so why did she encounter danger so easily? It turned out it was all because of her teddy bear.

"Since you know, you'd better be smart and hand it over to me."

The moment Ruan Qiushui arrived at the train station, the organization had already determined that the intelligence had been transferred to Ruan Qiushui through the hands of Hua Guo's undercover agents.

That's why they deployed people all the way to try and retrieve the intelligence.

Unfortunately, those people were all show and no substance, they just threw their lives away and almost alerted the enemy.

He was originally responsible for protecting the secret laboratory on the mountain. He wouldn't have risked being exposed to retrieve the intelligence if it weren't for its critical importance.

According to the organization, Nguyen Thu Thuy's intelligence included a list of accomplices from nearly ten provinces and cities.

Once exposed, it will be a fatal blow to them.

"Give it to you? Dream on!"

No sooner had Ruan Qiushui finished speaking than Gu Changfeng rushed in from outside the door and pinned Yu Guanghua to the ground.

He removed the jaw, bound the hands and feet, and searched the entire body in one swift motion.

Yu Guanghua, who hadn't had time to commit suicide by poison, was so angry that he kept crying out.

"Ruan Ruan, you scared me to death."

Gu Changfeng untied Ruan Qiushui's ropes and saw the red marks on her wrists, which broke his heart.

"Is your sister-in-law alright?"

Gu Changfeng's comrades followed him in; they had been lying in ambush outside the clinic for some time.

"Mmm mmm mmm."

I actually fell into your trap!

"Or do you think I'd be caught so easily?"

Ruan Qiushui proudly raised her head.

"The teddy bear he was talking about is right under my bed in my bedroom."

Ruan Qiushui didn't like the teddy bear, so she didn't take it with her.

"Understood, great contributor."

Gu Changfeng rubbed Ruan Qiushui's head.

On his first day back at the brigade, Gu Changfeng noticed that something was wrong with Yu Guanghua.

Not only did he frequently go up the mountain in the middle of the night, but he also followed Ruan Qiushui from time to time.

Two days ago, during the battle with enemy agents on the mountain, Gu Changfeng confirmed that the surviving enemy agent was Yu Guanghua.

So after he came down the mountain, he thought about how to lure the snake out of its hole.

First, ensure Ruan Qiushui's safety and figure out their purpose in looking for her.

After learning the whole story, Ruan Qiushui disregarded Gu Changfeng's numerous objections and, prioritizing her own safety, used herself as bait to lure Yu Guanghua into a trap.

So he took the opportunity to move out of the educated youth quarters and live alone, and then pretended to be drunk during Chen Fenglan's wedding, giving her plenty of chances.

Fortunately, all these arrangements were not in vain, and they successfully extracted the key information.

"Old Eight, take him to town."

"Old Nine, tell our men that the operation to close in has officially begun."

Gu Changfeng has been busy these past two days. He has already found out the location of the laboratory in the mountains and also found out all the enemy agents in the town. He is just one step away from wiping them out.

"Yes, sir!"

The eighth and ninth brothers were very perceptive; they carried Yu Guanghua away.

"Ruan Ruan, I have to go on a mission. Be careful by yourself."

"I'll be back soon, you must miss me."

After the two left, Gu Changfeng looked at Ruan Qiushui with reluctance.

"Wait a moment, I have something for you."

"You know how to use the white medicine. As for this pill, keep it to save your life."

Ruan Qiushui was worried about Gu Changfeng's safety, so she packed him ten bottles of Yunnan Baiyao and one bottle of ginseng pills containing twenty pills.

"I'll wait for you to come back."

After learning about Gu Changfeng's profession, she knew this day would come.

"I'm leaving now. When I come back, let's get married, okay?"

This operation was dangerous, and he wanted to give himself some hope.

"good."

"We'll get married as long as you come back safe and sound."

Ruan Qiushui nodded and stepped forward to hug Gu Changfeng's waist.

You must be careful.

Ruan Qiushui was a little reluctant to part with him, but she still smiled and saw him off.

"wait for me."

Gu Changfeng kept turning back to look at her as she walked out the door, but finally managed to resist looking back and quickly left.

In the first minute after Gu Changfeng left, I missed him!

Two minutes after Gu Changfeng left, he realized he'd forgotten to go to the garment factory in town.

"I don't know what Jiang Changguo said."

I've been thinking about fishing for enemy agents these past few days, and I've completely forgotten about the clothing factory.

There was also the fruit he promised Zhou Yi, checking the reply at the post office, and visiting the elderly couple.

Too many things to do, Ruan Qiushui scratched her hair in frustration and went to the brigade office to ask Gu Xianjin for leave.

"Ruan girl, go ahead, just come back soon."

With such a big commotion as capturing enemy agents, how could they not have informed Gu Xianjin?

The enemy agent was successfully captured, and Ruan Yatou and Changfeng have made a great contribution this time.

What's wrong with a meritorious person going to town to buy some things? Anyway, no one's going to see a doctor right now; everyone's just enjoying the feast at Wang the carpenter's house.

He was happy to indulge Ruan Yatou, since he also benefited from her good fortune.

Ruan Qiushui carried a basket on her back, rode the bicycle that Gu Changfeng had given her, and arrived in town.

First stop: Hongri Garment Factory.

"Designer Ruan, you've finally arrived."

Jiang Changguo had been waiting for Ruan Qiushui for a long time. He was anxious all day yesterday when she didn't come.

"I'm sorry, Director Jiang, something came up and I'm late."

I promised to come yesterday, and it was indeed my fault for making people wait an extra day.

"fine."

Jiang Changguo nodded in understanding.

"After a factory meeting and the opinions of senior management, we have decided to settle the design fee with you on a profit-sharing basis."

"As long as it's your design, no matter how much goods the foreign customers order from us, we'll settle with you based on one percent of our net profit."

Ruan Qiushui's designs are bold and avant-garde, and currently only foreign businesses can appreciate, accept, and promote them.

According to the factory's senior management, getting a hundred sets of a particular product from them each quarter would be the absolute maximum.

It would be a huge loss to rashly buy out the design, only to have the foreign company's sales plummet.

"OK."

Profit sharing—isn't this exactly what she wanted? At first glance, it might seem like she's at a disadvantage, but in the long run, she's making a huge profit.

Even if she only makes one percent profit per garment, she's confident that with her designs, she can earn hundreds in designer fees in the first quarter.

If you gain fame, earning nearly ten thousand a year is not a dream.

"This is the contract drafted by the factory. If you have no objections, we can sign it now."

Jiang Changguo took out the pre-prepared contract and handed it to Ruan Qiushui.

"good."

With all the terms in order, Ruan Qiushui signed her name.

"Director Jiang, these are the two remaining design drawings for this quarter."

Last time I only drew four designs, and I'm just two short of six.

Each design sketch was meticulously detailed, even including reference fabrics and accessories.
