In the unit chief's room, Wang Xuelin pressed the shutter while listening to the movement outside. Suddenly, there was a soft click, which seemed to be a deliberate closing of the door.
Without wasting even a second, he reached out to open the drawer and quickly stuffed everything on the table inside.
The moment the door opened, the alcohol lamp had not yet been put away. Wang Xuelin had no time to continue packing, so he could only throw a newspaper over and cover it with the alcohol lamp.
Wang Xinrui stepped in, came to Wang Xuelin, smiled and said: "Xuelin, you know, I originally wanted to scare you, but I just changed my mind and thought that was too childish."
When he walked to the door, Wang Xinrui suddenly thought, why Wang Xuelin didn't like Tong Tong, it wasn't because she was so startled and confused, and she couldn't learn from that kind of person!
"You know me better..." Wang Xuelin sat up straight, put on his glasses on the table, looked at Wang Xinrui, and said, "Why are you here?"
"Let's see you." Wang Xinrui pulled a chair and sat opposite Wang Xuelin, looking at her fiancé lovingly.
"We meet every day, what's there to see?"
"That's not enough."
"Fortunately, there is no one else in the archives department..."
Wang Xinrui pursed her lips and smiled, and said: "There are others, I'm embarrassed to say that... By the way, have you eaten?"
"have eaten."
"Have you eaten? When did you go to the restaurant?"
"At 11:30, I was too full from breakfast and had no appetite. I drank a bowl of soup and came back."
"Oh, it gave me a false alarm. I thought you were uncomfortable because you ate so fast..."
Only then did Wang Xuelin understand that the reason why Wang Xinrui came to the archives unit was because she cared about him. He couldn't help but feel a little moved and said, "Xinrui, are you feeling better?"
Wang Xinrui nodded and said, "Well, much better."
Wang Xuelin said apologetically: "I've made you suffer... Xinrui, I'm sorry!"
Wang Xinrui took Wang Xuelin's hand and said softly: "Between you and me, there is no need to say sorry. Besides, I'm fine..."
The two chatted for a few more words. Wang Xinrui looked around and said, "Xuelin, you are now the unit chief. You must pay attention to your words and deeds at all times to avoid other people making irresponsible remarks!"
Wang Xuelin smiled and said: "You haven't officially gotten married yet, do you want to be my wife?"
"I just want to be a good housekeeper. Look at the mess on the table. Things need to be arranged neatly..." Wang Xinrui stood up and reached out to pick up the newspaper.
It was too late for Wang Xuelin to stop him, and besides, he had no reason to stop it!
"What are you using this for?" Wang Xinrui saw the alcohol lamp on the table.
Wang Xuelin said: "Oh, I accidentally got the document wet, let's bake it."
This situation also happened to Wang Xinrui when he was in the archives department. The alcohol lamp will not burn the paper black, so Wang Xuelin's explanation is reasonable.
"Let the people below do this kind of thing..." Wang Xinrui touched the wick casually and found that it was still warm, and she suddenly became suspicious.
That is to say, Wang Xuelin was baking documents with an alcohol lamp just now. Why was there nothing on the table when he came in?
"Xuelin, where are the documents?"
"...sent back."
Wang Xinrui was silent for a moment, then suddenly reached out and opened the drawer. Looking at the mess in the drawer, it was obvious that he had put it in in a hurry.
That sealed document is also particularly dazzling. How could a Class A document accidentally get wet? Once stored in the filing cabinet, it should not be taken out again!
Wang Xinrui's face was gloomy and he looked at Wang Xuelin for a long time. The two looked at each other like this for more than a minute.
"So, I guessed correctly, you are indeed a Communist!" Wang Xinrui sat slumped on the chair.
Wang Xuelin turned around and closed the door tightly, and whispered: "Xinrui, you misunderstood..."
"Misunderstanding? You still want to lie to me?"
"I'm really not a communist..."
"Then give me a reasonable explanation!"
"We are getting married soon. We need money for a lot of things, and I don't want my family to take the money. After all, you know, my personality is somewhat... arrogant!"
"Is there a relationship between the two?"
"The Vigdore Bar in Russia City has now become an underground information exchange. There are Americans, Soviets, British, and various forces. They are willing to spend a lot of money to buy information..." Wang Xuelin could only bite the bullet and go down.
Editor, it's not time for a showdown with Wang Xinrui yet.
"You mean, you stole the information to trade it?"
"This is my first time doing this..."
"If someone discovers it, do you know what the consequences will be?"
"I know... Xinrui, I promise not to do this again!"
"Hurry up and pack it up. If others find out, you will be taken to the interrogation room immediately!"
Wang Xuelin breathed a sigh of relief and said tentatively: "You won't tell anyone, right?"
"You are my fiancé, what good will it do to me if you tell me? I can only choose to believe you again!" Wang Xinrui said resentfully.
"Xinrui, thank you!"
"Hurry up, they'll be back soon."
Wang Xuelin took out the document bag, applied glue and resealed it, and then carefully dried it with an alcohol lamp. It didn't look like it had been opened at all.
Wang Xinrui picked up the miniature camera, pulled out the film to expose it, and said, "I'm doing this for your own good!"
"I understand!" Wang Xuelin quickly walked out of the unit chief's office and put the documents back in the filing cabinet.
After a while, footsteps were heard in the corridor, and Wang Xinrui said, "They are all back, it's time for me to leave."
Wang Xuelin held her hand, his eyes full of gratitude, and said, "Xinrui, thank you for trusting me!"
Wang Xinrui smiled sweetly, touched Wang Xuelin's face and said, "Stop talking nonsense, we are husband and wife. If I don't trust you, who else can I trust?"
Wang Xuelin wanted to hug him, but Wang Xinrui gently broke away, pretending to be angry and said: "Stop making trouble, it's not good for others to see..."
Coming out of the archives section, the smile on Wang Xinrui's face slowly faded.
Although she has not received formal agent training, during this period of time, she has been by Shen Zhifeng's side, and her ability to analyze things has also been improved under her influence!
Wang Xinrui didn’t believe even a word of Wang Xuelin’s explanation just now!
Would the dignified eldest son of the Wang family take risks for the sake of money, and do such a thing that makes him lose his head at any time?
Wang Xinrui can almost conclude that this kind of logically unreasonable thing has no credibility at all. Wang Xuelin must be a spy sent by the Communist Party!
What should I do?
Report him?
Or...keep this a secret?
At this time, Wang Xuelin was equally uneasy. It was not easy to fool Wang Xinrui with just a few words!
Wang Xuelin also knew that his explanation of the secretly photographed documents was a bit reluctant. Under the circumstances, he had no choice but to hope that the relationship between the two would work!
