Chapter 681 The Passing of Time 46
"Eat your food properly, eating late at night will make you gain weight."
Qiu Juncheng leaned over and kissed her again.
"It's okay if I gain weight, I don't mind."
After saying that, he thought for a moment about what his wife would look like if she gained weight. "She would still look beautiful even if she gained weight. She is the most beautiful no matter what she looks like."
Ning Yan: ...When a man is in love, he'll say anything, but if you believe him, you're a fool.
Especially for those who fall in love at first sight, this statement is completely unbelievable.
"Well, you'd better keep your figure. If you're not pretty, I won't be able to bring myself to kiss you." The main point is sincerity.
Qiu Juncheng felt as if an arrow had pierced his chest, his heart pierced through. He poured all his frustration into the dishes on the table, biting them with tremendous force!
"Don't eat too much, your stomach will feel uncomfortable. I'll come again tomorrow night."
Yes, Qiu Juncheng ate too much!
"Maybe we shouldn't come. It's too dangerous."
Ning Yan: "You'll still come, but I won't let you eat. You have to pretend, otherwise Xiao Tian will see that you're not hungry at all and he'll definitely think about you eating."
After saying that, she took out cosmetics and began to apply them to the man's face. These were all waterproof, and there was no water in the prison, so Xiaotian would not be able to tell.
"Yes, with this haggard makeup, no one will suspect you."
"Given Xiaotian's mad dog-like behavior, I definitely won't be able to get out anytime soon."
Unless something else happens in the East District.
Ning Yan understood that he was trying to cause trouble in the East District.
"I understand. Thank you for your hard work, sir. You are suffering for our family, for the entire intelligence system in Beiping, and for the rise of China. I will remember you, your comrades will remember you, and the country will remember your contributions!"
So you have to hang in there!
If you're hungry, just be hungry. You absolutely must resist. If you really can't stand it, then eat some small rice cakes.
Qiu Juncheng was amused by her again, "When did you become so talkative? Okay, let's go back now, on the way..."
He wanted to tell her to be careful on the road, but what was there to be careful about? In places where the lady frequented, it seemed like it was others who should be the ones to be careful.
So the message became, "Go back and get some sleep. Tomorrow, you can go to Director Luo's house again, just to make a show of it."
"I know, I know. If I couldn't even handle this little thing, would I dare marry a double agent like you?"
Qiu Juncheng lowered his head slightly, a smile on his lips, and whispered in Ning Yan's ear, "Yes, my wife is the most amazing."
His tone and posture were incredibly suggestive. If this weren't a prison, Ning Yan would have taken advantage of him on the spot.
"Behave yourself, stop acting like a slut, I'll deal with you when we get home."
After reapplying the invisibility talisman, Ning Yan disappeared from the dungeon.
After she left, Qiu Juncheng didn't lie down to sleep. Instead, he paced around the dungeon. He was too full and needed to digest.
Just then, Xiao Tian was worried about Qiu Juncheng, so he specially sent someone down to check on him. The person was cautious and only took a quick look from a distance before going up to report, "Lord Xiao Tian, Qiu Sang is so hungry that he can't sleep and is turning the millstone like a donkey."
Xiao Tian smiled smugly; he didn't believe Qiu Juncheng could withstand being starved for seven days.
Qiu Juncheng: ...Hehe, this really is a beautiful misunderstanding.
...
The next day, Ning Yan went to the Luo family early in the morning with two big dark circles under her eyes.
Those watching her could only stand guard outside the door; they had no idea what was happening inside.
Ning Yan didn't stay at the Luo family's house for long. She only needed to let people see her anxiety, worry, panic, and helplessness. She never wanted to waste her energy. She just wanted to perform just right. Doing more would be a waste. After all, acting was quite tiring. She just wanted to live comfortably.
When she got home, she lay down in the room. Aunt Wang was a little worried because her husband hadn't come home all night. She originally wanted to ask him a few more questions, but the madam didn't give her a chance to speak at all.
It's no wonder the lady of the house is upset; with such a big incident at home, it would be strange if she were in a good mood.
The lady hasn't eaten for several meals now, so she should think about what to have for lunch so she doesn't starve her.
...
headquarters.
8:13.
Oda picked up the report his subordinate had investigated and began to read it.
The report says that Qiu Juncheng married a woman from the countryside simply because she was very beautiful? Just how beautiful was she?
The text also says that Qiu Juncheng went to the Eight Great Hutongs and was scolded by his wife when he returned home. Qiu Juncheng was scolded so badly that he knelt down and begged for forgiveness.
Goodness, I never would have guessed this guy was afraid of his wife.
Next came the investigation into Ning Yan.
Her family were just ordinary peasants in China. They used to run a small business, selling steamed buns in town. Later, she met Qiu Juncheng, who was on his way to the countryside, and the two got married.
This woman became arrogant after marrying into the city. She even argued with the servants because they mistreated her. She's a bit vain and always tries to get close to wealthy women. There's no way she could be a spy.
At best, she's just an arrogant pretty face.
He needs to see someone in person to confirm if they have good looks.
Then there's the investigation report from Aunt Wang, the maid of the Qiu family.
He's honest and simple, has some disagreements with the hostess, can cook a few dishes, and seems ordinary without any apparent problems.
As for Qiu Juncheng's file, it was a very thick stack, full of his past achievements, and it seemed to be without any problems.
But he just felt: there was something wrong with this person!
He won't interrogate Qiu Juncheng today. How could he possibly open his mouth without being starved for a few days?
After reviewing the document, Xiao Tian put it aside and went out to investigate the evidence.
Qiu Juncheng had the most dealings with his former superior Luo Siyuan and his two subordinates Li Dagang and Su Sheng.
These people also need to be investigated.
Ning Yan couldn't just sit idly by.
If she wants her man to get out sooner, something has to happen in the East District.
Let's find a few traitors to take action against.
However, this time I can't use the ghost's identity.
Let's choose another one, like the Wasp.
The stinger of a wasp is most poisonous than a woman's heart.
The wasps specialize in killing traitors; anyone who dares to sway their allegiance will be executed.
Therefore, Chu Wu, the former commander of the 3rd Division of the 29th Army in Xicheng District, became Ning Yan's first target.
When the Japanese invaders entered Beiping, the 29th Army was defeated.
Chu Wu, the former commander of the Third Division, surrendered directly to the Japanese.
After surrendering, what he said most often was, "So what if I surrendered to the Japanese? So what if I became a traitor? Living a comfortable life is what really matters!"
He certainly lived a comfortable life, indulging in fine food and drink, marrying one concubine after another, and living a life of extravagance and debauchery every day.
Not only that, he also tried to persuade others to become traitors. And surprisingly, he actually succeeded a few times. Fortunately, those people were not of high status and did not have as much influence as him.
That evening, after Aunt Wang left, Ning Yan closed the front door and went back to her room.
She took out a pair of eight-centimeter high heels from the divine palace, a bright red dress, and a mask painted with wasps. That was about all the equipment she needed.
Afterwards, she even practiced a few murderous moves while wearing high heels.
