Chapter 202

Evening.

Li Ya rummaged through boxes and cabinets, cleaning up his assets.

A total of twenty-three gold bars.

Thirteen thousand US dollars.

Not many, but not few either.

He really likes Mei Yingxue.

This woman gave him vitality, and his taste in life has improved by a large margin.

For her sake.

Li Ya even threw Zhou Gendi's silk stockings, high heels, and photos into the trash can all at once.

The only fly in the ointment is that he hinted many times and created many opportunities to want to sleep with Yingxue, but was rejected.

Yingxue's attitude is very clear.

She believes in some kind of Western religion and will never share a room with him before marriage, otherwise it would be blasphemy against God.

Li Ya doesn't understand that messy Western stuff.

However, during the day, he and Mei Yingxue officially established a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship in a cafe.

Li Ya wants to strike while the iron is hot.

See if he can make an appointment with Mei Shao to go to the Station Chief's house on New Year's Day to set the marriage and eat this plump white swan into his stomach early.

However, to get married, there must be a house.

Although the house assigned by the station is not bad.

It is far from enough to match a young lady like Yingxue.

People go out in a Studebaker.

The residence they live in is also a mansion next to the one given by the Station Chief.

Li Ya feels that at the very least, he must buy a small villa on Changde Road to match Yingxue's status.

Having made up his mind, Li Ya gritted his teeth, packed the money, and drove to see the landlord.

He set the house.

Returned home.

He took the deed, hugged Mei Yingxue's photo, and kissed it several times fiercely.

That wasn't enough.

Thinking of being able to marry a beautiful bride, his heart and soul were stirred.

He lifted the quilt and drilled in.

"Yingxue..."

23 Changde Road.

Mei Shao sat in the courtyard brewing tea.

The hall and other rooms were installed with wiretaps by Wu Jingzhong.

He just pretended not to know anything.

"Xue'er, I saw Li Ya discussing things with your aunt at her house today.

"Listening to the meaning, this kid wants to marry you."

Mei Shao poured tea and smiled indifferently.

"Marry me?

"It's not impossible; the status of husband and wife is just a piece of paper to me; he is still him, and I am still me.

"This person's identity is still very valuable.

"These days I deliberately took him to high-end places frequently; the scalpers, businessmen, and officers' wives there now all know that I am the girlfriend of the Action Team Captain.

"Some intelligence is much easier to get.

"And even if something happens in the future, I can push everything onto Li Ya.

"A wife buying intelligence for her husband, isn't that a matter of course?"

Mei Yingxue folded her beautiful legs and laughed coldly.

"Hmm.

"Xue'er has been around, and her insight is different.

"If you had come back earlier, Dad wouldn't have been defeated so miserably in Yuezhou."

Mei Shao sighed.

"Xue'er, you have to move on Hong Zhiyou.

"I know a person named Old Shang.

"This person is an underground intelligence scalper with great energy; he knows a subordinate of Ma Hansan who said that someone in our Jinhai is using Ma Hansan's relationship to transport supplies from the Fangshan side.

"These goods are very likely being transported directly to Yancheng.

"Ever since I was placed under house arrest in Jinhai by your aunt, I have also learned some inside stories; there are Red Tickets in the Secret Service Bureau, either Yu Zecheng or Hong Zhiyou.

"If you can persuade Li Ya to investigate, perhaps there will be unexpected gains.

"After all, the person who can use Ma Hansan's door is not an ordinary person.

"In the Jinhai Station, only Hong Zhiyou has this ability.

"Who knows, Li Ya might be able to clamp him to death."

Mei Shao played with his Qiankun beads, his eyes fierce.

"Very difficult.

"Li Ya is not stupid; he is currently thinking about marrying me to be the Station Chief's nephew-in-law.

"Hong Zhiyou is the Station Chief's trusted aide and prospective son-in-law.

"Investigating Hong Zhiyou at this time will undoubtedly touch the Station Chief's reverse scale; he won't do it."

Mei Yingxue frowned and shook her head.

"I naturally know this.

"Don't say it's Hong Zhiyou; just say you suspect Yu Zecheng.

"Yu Zecheng became Deputy Station Chief, and Li Ya has always been dissatisfied.

"Now he urgently needs to replace Yu Zecheng's position and become your aunt's arm.

"No matter what, he will make a move."

Mei Shao said.

"Hmm, I can try," Mei Yingxue pondered for a moment and nodded.

"Yu and Hong wear the same pair of pants.

"If Yu Zecheng is bitten out, can Hong Zhiyou's bad luck be far behind?"

Mei Shao laughed proudly and coldly.

"Father, I'm going out," Mei Yingxue applied lipstick, stood up, and picked up her bag.

"It's late at night, where are you going?" Mei Shao asked.

"James is here.

"I'm going to accompany him.

"Soon, half an hour... about an hour, I'll be back.

"Before I come back, I will go see Li Ya and talk to him about this."

Mei Yingxue couldn't wait when she thought of James's strong physique and her heart beating fast.

Coming back every day to pretend to be a pure saint with Li Ya.

She was about to vomit.

Relying on herself every day is not a solution.

It just so happens that James is here as an English representative to collect intelligence this time.

She can continue their dew-like relationship again.

"Alright."

Mei Shao is still very traditional in his bones; when he thinks of his daughter with a foreign devil, he feels nauseous.

Mei Yingxue stepped on her high heels and walked quickly to the door; after changing her shoes in the car, she stepped on the gas and rushed to the English Club.

Not far away.

A car turned out of the alley and followed closely.

After Mei Yingxue got out of the car.

Lin Tian threw a chocolate bean into his mouth and followed closely inside.

He lived here for a while.

He was very familiar with the waiters here.

After chatting for a few words, Lin Tian followed closely.

Mei Yingxue arrived at the suite on the third floor.

Before she even entered the room, she was kissing passionately with a tall foreign devil.

Soon, the foreign devil carried Mei Yingxue into the room with a princess hug.

Damn, forgot to bring the camera.

He squatted for a while.

About an hour later, Mei Yingxue walked out of the room with a spring breeze on her face; she flicked her wavy hair, which was so coquettish.

Lin Tian recorded the time.

Then he continued to drive and follow.

Seeing Mei Yingxue go to Li Ya's house, he didn't follow anymore and turned into a fork in the road and left.

Returning to his residence, he dialed Hong Zhiyou's number directly:

"Brother, this woman is on a date with a foreign devil, and they've been at it for about an hour.

"She's at Li Ya's house now.

"Okay, I'll be careful."

Hong Zhiyou leaned against the head of the bed and put down the phone.

Ruirui will be back with the baby who was just born not long ago in a few days.

He has moved directly into Wu Jingzhong's house.

Villa No. 1 is very large.

He deliberately tidied up a small building that was independent on the side these past two days; he will have to live here temporarily for a long time in the future.

Sigh.

Li Ya is so miserable.

Hong Zhiyou joked with him yesterday, asking if he had gotten together with Mei Yingxue.

Li Ya was still bragging.

As a veteran in the love field, Hong Zhiyou knew that Li Ya definitely hadn't eaten any meat as soon as he heard it.

But that's also true.

Mei Yingxue, this kind of gold-digger, has plenty of means to deal with men.

If she sleeps with him, her value will drop by half.

If it were him, he would also have to whet his appetite enough first.

He got up, smoked a cigarette, returned to the room, and dialed a number:

"Hello, Old Xie.

"Okay, okay, you handle your business first, I'll wait."

Three, two, one.

"Old Xie, can you do it now?"

After counting to three, he asked again.

On the other side, Xie Ruolin answered listlessly: "What's the matter?"

"Help me check someone, a foreigner, golden curly hair, living in Suite 308 of the English Club.

"Yes, now.

"I need to confirm his identity.

"Good, thank you.

"I suspect this person is very likely an MI6 agent with a certain awareness of anti-surveillance; the English and Americans are very crazy here, you must pay attention to safety."

Hanging up the phone, Hong Zhiyou pondered.

The person Mei Yingxue rushed to date is very likely her superior, colleague, or that spy boyfriend James.

The latter is very likely.

Li Ya is very deep in it now.

But this person is still very green in his bones, otherwise Jianfeng couldn't have developed him into the Iron and Blood Youth Corps.

If he discovers he was played by Mei Yingxue.

And the other party is a foreign spy.

With Li Ya's character of seeking revenge for the smallest grievance, he is very likely to kill.

Kill an English spy.

If he can secretly master this evidence, he can cause Li Ya's death in the future, and even Jianfeng won't be able to protect him.

Hmm!

It's a good plan.

Inside the room.

Li Ya was cleaning Mei Yingxue's photo frame with soft hands and feet.

Just as he wiped it dry and placed it on the bedside.

The door rang.

"Who is it?" Li Ya asked vigilantly.

"It's me," Mei Yingxue's gentle voice came from outside the door.

Yingxue?

Li Ya was overjoyed, simply tidied up the bed, and hurriedly put on his pajamas to open the door.

"Xue'er, it's so late, why are you here."

Looking at the radiant Yingxue, Li Ya's heart beat faster.

Yingxue's makeup was very delicate; she was clearly here for him.

"I couldn't sleep, so I came to see you.

"You've been busy these past two days and I haven't seen you."

Mei Yingxue walked in and sat on the sofa with her beautiful legs folded.

Under the lights.

The beautiful legs as smooth as silk made Li Ya swallow his saliva.

"It's the end of the year, and the Red Tickets also want to celebrate the New Year.

"They are in urgent need of supplies, so I've been watching some big markets these past few days to see if I can catch any fish."

Li Ya said.

"Brother Ya, work is certainly important, but you must also pay attention to your health.

"By the way, I passed by the department store today and brought you a scarf.

"Come over and try it."

Mei Yingxue took a black scarf from her bag and said with concern.

Li Ya walked up to her, and Mei Yingxue wrapped it around him with her slender fingers, smiling brightly:

"Hmm, not bad.

"Paired with the long black leather coat I gave you, it must be cool and stylish."

"Xue'er, thank you.

"No one has ever given me this kind of thing before."

He said, hugging Mei Yingxue and kissing her passionately.

Just as he was about to lift her skirt, Mei Yingxue pressed his hand and groaned:

"Brother Ya, we agreed, no messing around.

"God is watching in heaven."

"Alright," Li Ya retracted his hand disappointedly.

He got up and drank some tea.

For some reason, the taste of this kiss tonight was not quite right.

How should I put it?

The taste wasn't quite right.

How it wasn't quite right, he couldn't say for a moment.

Mei Yingxue saw his expression was a bit strange, covered her lips slightly, and cursed herself for being careless.

"I met a rice noodle shop near Kunlun Road tonight.

"The pork intestine noodles there taste pretty good."

Her eyes turned, and she changed the subject.

Pork intestine noodles, huh.

Li Ya seemed to find the answer and laughed again:

"I thought you only drank coffee and ate steak; I didn't expect you to eat this too."

"I couldn't eat it abroad.

"It's rare to be back in the country, so naturally, I have to have my fill," Mei Yingxue pulled him and laughed.

"Yingxue, I also prepared a gift for you.

"Look, what is this?"

Li Ya took out the deed.

"You bought a house on Changde Road?" Mei Yingxue said in surprise.

"Yes.

"I plan to propose to you on New Year's Day; according to our customs here, we must have a house to get married," Li Ya said.

"Brother Ya, thank you.

"God truly loves me, letting me meet you.

"Actually, having a house or not doesn't matter to me.

"As long as I can be with you, even if we have to sleep in the wind and eat in the dew, I am willing."

Mei Yingxue leaned into Li Ya's arms understandingly.

"How could that be? I won't let you suffer," Li Ya hugged her gently and said tenderly.

"If we get married, I have no problem; my dad is easy to talk to, but you might have to spend some effort on my aunt's husband," Mei Yingxue said.

"Yes, the Station Chief's mind is hard to fathom," Li Ya sighed lightly.

"What's hard to fathom?

"It's nothing more than him having enough people around him and finding you in the way.

"If you can kick one or two away, how could he not be close and value you, his nephew-in-law?"

Mei Yingxue began to seduce him.

"Kick?

"Kick who?" Li Ya asked.

"You can't kick Hong Zhiyou; it can only be Yu Zecheng," Mei Yingxue said.

"Kick him away.

"A proper son-in-law and a nephew-in-law, is there any better partner in the world?"

Mei Yingxue continued.

Li Ya's gaze flashed with suspicion: "I didn't expect you to have a head for politics?"

"I don't understand; my dad taught me to say this.

"He also worked for my aunt's husband before, so he understands things inside more or less."

Mei Yingxue saw him frowning and began to act like a spoiled child:

"Oh, don't overthink it.

"My dad is doing this for our own good; you are a veteran Lieutenant Colonel, why should you be suppressed by others?

"Last time I was dancing at the Military Families Association.

"That Mrs. Yu was so arrogant, she didn't even look at me properly and even said behind my back that I was a vixen.

"I just couldn't swallow this breath."

"Yu Zecheng has indeed been a bit arrogant lately, and his wife, who is stupider than a pig, is even more disgusting," Li Ya saw the beauty was wronged, and his eyes gradually became sharp.

"You're right.

"A triangle is the most stable; if Yu Zecheng doesn't leave, I will never be able to squeeze into the power center of the Jinhai Station.

"Not for anything else, just for you, I have to deal with him."

Li Ya got up, sucked his cheeks, and said coldly.

"My dad said he knows an intelligence scalper named Old Shang.

"Old Shang said Yu Zecheng is very likely colluding with Ma Hansan to transport supplies for the Red Tickets.

"See if you can find a way to keep an eye on him.

"To bring Yu Zecheng down, the aunt's husband can only use you; are you still afraid he won't agree to our matter?"

Mei Yingxue leaned gently on Li Ya's shoulder and said.

"Good.

"I'll go check tomorrow.

"It's so late, do you want me to see you home?"

Li Ya got up and said.

"No need.

"I drove here; oh, it's almost ten o'clock, my dad will be worried if I don't go home.

"Brother Ya, see you tomorrow.

"Waiting for your good news."

Mei Yingxue smiled coquettishly, didn't dare to kiss his mouth, touched his forehead, tidied her skirt, and walked out.

Looking at the beauty's swaying buttocks, Li Ya truly loved her to death.

Watching the car drive away.

Li Ya returned to the room, still feeling the taste wasn't quite right.

"No, I'll tell Xue'er not to eat intestine noodles in the future."

He shook his head, went to the bathroom, brushed his teeth thoroughly, and went to sleep.

The next day.

Li Ya came to the station.

He happened to brush past Yu Zecheng.

"Captain Li, full of spring breeze, is the good news with Miss Yingxue near?" Yu Zecheng carried his briefcase and asked with a smile.

After Lu Qiaoshan left.

The relationship within the station was still harmonious.

Especially Yu Zecheng and Li Ya, who had a honeymoon period.

Yu Zecheng was grateful to Li Ya for helping him get promoted.

Li Ya.

Busy with making money and dating at the end of the year, he had no mind to pit people, so everyone was getting along well.

When they were free, they would gather for meals and drinks, talk about major national affairs, and brag.

"Old Yu, changed your bag.

"Genuine leather.

"You haven't made little money lately, have you?"

Li Ya winked and asked with a smile.

"Where.

"Although I'm Deputy Station Chief, I'm still in charge of the Confidentiality Section like before, and there's no fat to skim.

"Unlike you, junior brother, holding both the Action Team and the Intelligence Section, plus the cold storage warehouse and Delong Inn, two fat spots; you'll never spend all that money in this lifetime."

Yu Zecheng squinted and said.

"Deputy Station Chief Yu, don't say that.

"That little money of mine isn't even enough for expenses.

"I plan to marry Yingxue, buy a house, buy a car; just eating a casual meal costs a lot of US dollars; she's someone who returned from studying abroad, I can't treat her badly, right?"

Li Ya laughed.

"That's true, that's true.

"I envy Captain Li for winning the beauty. Talented man and beautiful woman, and she's the Station Chief's niece; how well-matched, how good.

"In all of Jinhai, you can't find a second woman more beautiful than Miss Mei.

"If it were me, with her, I wouldn't even be an emperor."

Yu Zecheng laughed.

"Haha, that's true, that's true," Li Ya looked up and laughed proudly.

"Go earn your wife's money.

"There's a meeting later, I still have to prepare."

Yu Zecheng carried his bag and turned to leave.

Li Ya stood in place, sucking his cheeks, staring gloomily at Yu Zecheng's back, tapping his chin lightly:

"Deputy Station Chief Yu!

"I want to see how many more days you can sit in that position."

Just as Yu Zecheng returned to the office, the phone rang.

He answered quickly: "Hello, it's me.

"Oh, it's Shopkeeper Luo.

"Book payment, right?

"Good, good, I'll come over to settle the account immediately."

Hanging up the phone, Yu Zecheng's face changed.

This was the secret signal he had agreed upon with Luo Anping.

Old Luo wanting to meet early in the morning could only mean one thing:

Something happened!
