Chen Zifeng was very cautious. He sent two brothers out first and looked around to confirm that there was no problem before waving over. Chen Zifeng opened the door and let Fu Xuelan and Liao Ruolan go out together.
21-29
Fu Xuelan and Liao Ruolan went to the street and hailed a rickshaw.
She looked back and saw that the two brothers had also boarded the rickshaw, and she felt relieved.
Fu Xuelan looked at Liao Ruolan beside her, full of curiosity. She wanted to take this opportunity to chat with her.
She looked around, smiled and said, "Xiao Ancheng was injured. Look at Qiao Yanfang, crying so sadly. I'm a little surprised. You and Xiao Ancheng are classmates, but nothing seems to be wrong. Why?"
In fact, when Liao Ruolan saw that Xiao Ancheng was injured, her heart felt as if it was being strangled by a wire.
She always felt that she had distanced herself from Xiao Ancheng and rarely talked to him. The most important point was that she thought over and over again that she and Xiao Ancheng would never get together. The past relationship had long been like a passing cloud.
Dissipated.
However, when I saw him injured and his face covered in blood, I still felt pain in my heart. It was an extraordinary pain!
Past feelings, like scars on the body, will never disappear!
However, she agreed to Qiao Yanfang! She even hoped that Qiao Yanfang would keep the secret! Qiao Yanfang did it!
Qiao Yanfang's whole heart was devoted to Xiao Ancheng, which also moved her.
At this time, she was like an ant between water and fire, not knowing which way to go.
Now when Dr. Fu asked her, she could only say softly: "I feel uncomfortable too, I just hide it in my heart."
"So, you also care about Xiao Ancheng, right?" Fu Xuelan asked immediately.
"No, it's not like that!" she said quickly.
"What does that look like?"
"Xiao Qiao and I are two different things to Xiao Ancheng. We are different." She thought for a while and had to say this.
Fu Xuelan looked at her with a smile. She guessed that the true emotions of this beautiful girl might not be as simple as she said. She said that she and Xiao Qiao were different, and there might be special circumstances.
The rickshaw driver ran very fast. Half an hour later, he had already sent them to Du Mansion.
21-30
When Fu Xuelan and Liao Ruolan walked into the large living room of Du Mansion, Mr. Du and Mr. Asakura were sitting together chatting.
Mr. Du looked at Fu Xuelan, with a sly smile on his face, and said softly: "I guess you might come. Please sit down and tell me what's going on now."
Fu Xuelan smiled and said: "Sir, you must have heard about the shelling in the morning."
Mr. Du laughed heartily, "I know, I know. Team Leader Chen and the others are really good at what they did! I heard that they blew up the Japanese headquarters very badly! Isn't that right!"
Fu Xuelan said: "Yes! They said they fired a total of eighteen shells! They also blew up an armored vehicle!"
Mr. Du smiled and said, "Mr. Asakura, what do you think?"
Mr. Asakura said: "This is something extraordinary! I can imagine that they must be going crazy!"
Mr. Du added: "Dr. Fu, do you have any other news you want to tell me?"
Fu Xuelan smiled at Mr. Asakura and said: "This afternoon, they raided the Nanshi Branch and rescued Mr. Akiyama! Mr. Asakura, you will see Mr. Akiyama soon."
Mr. Asakura immediately turned around and said a few words to Mrs. Asakura.
Mrs. Asakura opened her red lips and exclaimed to Fu Xuelan, "Oh, really! Can I go see him? I want to go now!"
Fu Xuelan said: "Mr. Akiyama is relatively weak now. He was detained by the gendarmerie in the Nanshi Branch with a bomb strapped to his body! Takahashi wanted to blow up Mr. Akiyama and Team Leader Chen together!"
Mr. Asakura translated this to his wife again. Mrs. Asakura stood up as if she was going to see her brother now.
Fu Xuelan said: "Mrs. Asakura, can you wait a moment? First, Mr. Akiyama is relatively weak, and secondly, their place involves everyone's safety, and they dare not let outsiders go casually. After a day or two, Mr. Akiyama
When he gets better, I will definitely send him here. Do you think it's okay?"
Mr. Asakura conveyed this idea to his wife and seemed to explain it in a special way.
Mrs. Asakura slowly sat down and looked at Fu Xuelan uneasily.
Fu Xuelan added: "Madam, please rest assured that Mr. Qiu Shan is safe now and you will be able to see him soon."
At this time, there was silence in the living room. Neither Mr. Du nor Mr. Asakura spoke anymore, but looked at Fu Xuelan with deep eyes, as if they wanted to see something from her face.
Fu Xuelan is very smart, and she immediately understood that they were actually concerned about that opportunity! The opportunity to get the medicine back!
She shook her head at them and said softly: "As for whether there is a chance, we haven't seen it yet."
Mr. Du said calmly: "Logically speaking, there are two big operations in a row today. If there is a chance, they should also happen. Mr. Asakura, what do you think?"
Mr. Asakura opened his hands exaggeratedly, "Wow! The bombardment in the morning! The prison robbery in the afternoon! It's very, very powerful! It should be able to create some kind of opportunity! What, they still said there is no such thing?"
Fu Xuelan shook his head, "I see that their expressions are also very heavy, and they don't seem to see any chance."
At this time, the living room became quiet again. They looked at each other and tried to ponder the mysterious opportunity in their minds.
Fu Xuelan stood up and said softly: "Two gentlemen, this is the situation. It seems we have to wait. I sent Miss Liao back. I want to go out now."
When Fu Xuelan said goodbye and left Du Mansion, it was already dark. She wanted to see Huang Hanhui as soon as possible and report to him the situation in the past few days.

During the day, Shanghai was noisy all day long!
The constant sound of gunshots and cannons made the noise even more bizarre and made the citizens even more uneasy.
They gathered together like a conspiracy, discussed various attacks and explosions, and praised the people of the national army for how bold they were!
At night, Big Shanghai is still Big Shanghai and falls back into another kind of noise. Feasting on lights, laughter, chatting, intrigues, and all this noise has become part of Shanghainese life.
At night, the grand ballroom of the International Hotel is always noisy, even the culmination of all the noise. It is also a luxurious place for rich people to escape from the world and spend extravagantly.
Gao Zongwu also became one of these people.
Last night, a confidential conversation with Ambassador Shigeru Kawahara finally made him feel relieved.
He could see that the Japanese attached great importance to his peace proposal and were obviously studying it carefully. Ambassador Shigeru Kawagata asked him to stay for a few more days, which seemed to indicate that he would finally give him a satisfactory answer!
He stood by the counter, twirling a wine glass in his hand, and occasionally looking towards the door of the ballroom. However, he was not in a hurry. Even if Liu Yingui was to come, it would take a while.
This afternoon, he and Liu Yingui agreed on the phone to meet in the ballroom.
So, now is the time for him to kill time and look for romantic encounters.
He glanced at the beautiful women in the ballroom with critical eyes, evaluating their temperament and appearance. He really hoped to meet a special woman.
At this time, he accidentally noticed a young girl folding up a red dance ticket and stuffing it into her chest.
When the girl raised her head and saw Gao Zongwu's eyes, she was obviously a little embarrassed by her actions. She smiled at him and turned away.
Gao Zongwu looked at her back and commented that at least her figure was quite slim.

Gao Zongwu asked the bartender for another glass of wine and glanced at the door again. After that, he began to think about how to report to the Chairman of the Committee and how to put forward his peace proposals to Mr. Wang after returning to Wuhan.
thing.
After an unknown amount of time, a slight scream came from behind him.
He looked back and saw a stout businessman hugging the girl he had just seen tightly, and seemed to be trying to lift up her skirt.
He vaguely heard the girl pleading: "Sir, sir, please don't do this."
But the stout businessman smiled wildly and still stretched his hand downwards.
The girl bent her legs to avoid his impudence. She finally pushed him away and walked towards the counter.
The businessman wanted to continue to pester, but two tall waiters stopped him and gave him a polite but threatening smile. The businessman had to turn around and walk away.
The girl had just recovered from the shock, and asked the waiter at the counter for a glass of water, drank it slowly, and then lowered her head to adjust her clothes.
She noticed that Gao Zongwu was paying attention to her, so she smiled at him and prepared to leave.
"Can I ask you a question?" Gao Zongwu said softly.
"What are you asking?" She looked at him with a calculating and careful look.
"Making a living as a dancer?" he asked simply.
"Yes." She was a little surprised, but nodded.
"I looked at you just now, why didn't you come and ask me to dance?" A smile appeared on his face.
"Ah, so that's why." She lowered her head and thought for a moment, then revealed a sneer at the corner of her mouth, "Sir, I don't mean any disrespect. People like us are all based on who chooses what to eat. I've looked at you,
You seemed to be waiting for someone and probably didn't want to dance, so I didn't bother you."
"I have a dance ticket. I bought it when I entered. Do you want it?" Gao Zongwu asked with a smile.
"Do you want to dance?" The girl was obviously taken aback and asked cautiously.
"I don't want to." But he took out a dance ticket and put it in front of her.
"For me? But you said you don't dance." She asked in surprise.
"I just want to find someone to talk to. Is that okay?"
"Sir, of course. One piece of music lasts six minutes. My six minutes are yours."
She elegantly folded the dance ticket and stuffed it into her chest.
"What's your name?" Gao Zongwu asked casually.
"Ah Hua." She smiled sadly at him and added, "A beggar's flower."
