Instead, it aroused the officer's ferocity, who brutally beat her before sending her to a Japanese general who loved to torture women.Tortured to the point of being worse than dead, in despair, she ju..."One of his parents is from China, but he was born and raised in the US, so he's an American through and through."

Yang Bin explained with a smile, while observing the ripples nodding in response across from him.

"That's too bad!"

Liàn Yī had a somewhat regretful expression.

"What's wrong"

"If he were Chinese, I might consider getting to know him. But if he's American, forget it. Even my deceased parents didn't like Americans. They thought they were barbaric, crude, and only knew how to colonize."

Ripples shrugged.

Yang Bin had a few dark lines on his face. It turned out that the other party had mistaken John Lee as someone they could pursue.

"Well, you can't judge everyone by the same standards. And as far as I know, he's always been a good person and doesn't have any girlfriends."

What this means is that you could give it a try.

The ripples expressed disinterest, waved him off, then turned his gaze to the team leader on Guang Hai's side. His eyes lit up, and he leaned over to Yang Bin, whispering:

"Brother Yang, do you know the man in the teal suit He looks nice. Could you introduce us"

Yang Bin said with a mixture of amusement and disbelief:

"Little Wu, you're here to carry out a mission, not to find a spouse."

"Captain Yang, rest assured, I will definitely manage both tasks efficiently."

Ripple immediately assured, then sighed and added:

"Brother Yang, I'm different from you. You're a seasoned veteran and an old hand at the Intelligence Department. I'm different. I'm a latecomer and I'm also timid. I don't want to experience what happened at the port again."

"Even with Eileen, the department head constantly watching me, I had to make a backup plan for myself. Especially in this situation, the best path I could think of was to marry myself off. While I'm still young, at least I have some assets. If I wait until I'm old and past my prime, there really won't be any chance."

Yang Bin's eyes flashed, and he immediately lowered his voice and asked:

"You said the situation isn't good now, what do you mean"

"Brother Yang, you are my senior. Your information analysis ability is above mine. How could you not notice Are you intentionally testing me"

Japan has surrendered, now who is in charge of China There has to be a resolution. This conflict between the two parties will inevitably escalate into violence. I don't want to get caught in the crossfire, so I need to find someone to back me up. Otherwise, I might become a casualty.

As someone like me, an ordinary person, I'm sure to be pushed to the front line.

Actually, if you think about it carefully, Mr. John Lee wasn't completely without advantages. If things in China became unstable, I could at least leave with him.

The rest of the conversation drifted far off topic, leaving Yang Bin bewildered. He wondered when he had become a bridge connecting ripples with their potential love interests.

However, upon closer thought, there's truth to what she said. There will inevitably be a war between the Nationalist Party and the Communist Party, the future will certainly be turbulent. As a woman, her plans are understandable, even indirectly proving her sensitivity to crisis. This was one of the reasons why the Nationalist Party recruited her in the first place.

"Let me introduce you to the head of Guang Hai's action team."

Thank you, Yang Ge.

After gracefully thanking everyone, Lian Yi followed Yang Bin to meet the man she had a crush on.

Liàn Yī after all had a good education, studied abroad, and was also beautiful and elegant. Coupled with her deliberate performance, she immediately won the favor of the squad leader Zheng Lín. The two danced twice, both were very satisfied with each other.

Zheng Lin personally sent Lian Yi back to her temporary residence. The two made an appointment for their next meeting, and Lian Yi did not act coy, smiling in response and agreeing. After returning, she sent a plate of seasonal fruit to Yang Bin as a thank you.

In the evening, Yang Bin called the Pingbei City Intelligence Department and reported to Wei Yi about Ripples' situation:

Xiaowu is very smart. She probably sensed something, and she never proactively inquired about the details of this mission. Everything she did was carried out according to my instructions, with no overstepping boundaries.

The only thing that surprised me was that she actually wanted to find a suitable marriage partner in Guanghai. She's currently set her sights on Zheng Lin, the captain of the Guanghai Action Team. He seems to have a good feeling for her too.

Wei Yi twitched the corner of his mouth after hearing this. Wu Lianyi was quite unique; in order to avoid Yilin, she even found a husband for herself. This plan seemed designed to allow her to leave the Intelligence Department at any time.

"I see. Observing Wu Lianyi is just an extra task for you this time. Just ignore her unless she causes any trouble, and focus on completing your current assignment."

Two days later, Lian Yi went to meet Zheng Lin as promised, and she had asked Yang Bin for leave in advance. Besides, their mission was coming to an end and they were currently on standby, so he had no reason to refuse. He nodded and let the well-dressed Lian Yi go on her date.

After meeting, Ripples and Zheng Lin acted like any ordinary couple on a date. They went out for lunch, strolled through the streets, danced at a ballroom, and even made plans to catch a late-night movie.

After confirming that Zheng Lin had been knocked unconscious, Lian Yi quietly left the dark theater. She went to the restroom to change her clothes and then made her way to John's residence.

Now John's residence has not only a butler and several servants, but also some people secretly protecting him, which makes Ripple's infiltration more troublesome.

After observing the distribution of guards around her, she directly knocked out one guard, tied him up and hid him away. Then, she put on his clothes and confidently entered the gate using his identification.

She pulled her black hat down low, covering her face, and the butler went to Johnley's study.

"Sir, those responsible for protecting your safety would like to see you."

"It's so late"

"Yes, they said it was urgent. They said something had changed regarding our previous agreement and they wanted to inform you."

As for what it was, the butler naturally had no idea.

Let him in.

John waved his hand.

A moment later, ripples entered Johni's study and said in a hushed voice:

"This deal's time has changed."

When John heard this, he dismissed the steward at the door and, after he had gone out, shut the door. Then what was said next was not for the steward to hear.

The housekeeper understood and closed the door before leaving.

At this time, the ripple took two steps forward and came to John Lee's desk. She took off her black top hat and then said with a smile:

Mr. John Lee, long time no see!

The moment the familiar taunting sound rang out, John Lee reflexively pulled open his drawer to grab his handgun, but Ripple had already kicked the other man in the side, knocking him unconscious.

Then, Ripples quickly searched the entire study, finding several important pieces of information, but there was no specific time and place for delivering the money. She was a little confused. Finally, she splashed a drink on the other person's face, waking them up.

The moment John opened his eyes, he felt an ice-cold hand gripping his neck, making him abandon any thoughts of screaming.

Mr. John Lee, you broke your promise and gave me false information. I am very angry.

"Miss Mudan, the news I received when I left Pingbei. I just didn't expect things to change later, and I couldn't see you, so..."

So you hid in Guanghai, afraid that I would come after you to settle the score.tied all night long, and as a result, everyone overslept. After breakfast, the butler from the White family came to ask if Mr. Lian and his companions could spare some time because Mrs. Laura had some...
