Chapter 469 Activating "Turtledove"
"We can develop Wang Dabao. The situation is becoming increasingly favorable for us. We need more downlines. Besides, Wang Dabao is actually a man of loyalty at heart."
Xie Wuwei is very optimistic about Wang Dabao, whose luck has always been a mystery.
Lin Ruotang told Guo Tao that when Wang Dabao helped him and Lin Ruotang out of trouble last time, he thought he was a good person. Although he didn't look good, he was smart.
He even gave Dongsheng some candy, which shows that he is a kind person at heart.
So Guo Tao also agreed to develop Wang Dabao as his downline.
In 1948, on New Year's Eve, Wang Dabao came to Lin Ruotang's house to celebrate the New Year.
As soon as he sat down, Xie Wuwei pulled him and poured him some wine.
"Brother Dabao, we've known each other for so long, and this is the first time we're celebrating the New Year together..."
Wang Dabao raised his glass flattered.
"Thank you...Deputy Station Master..."
"Hey, let's not be so polite!"
After Xie Wuwei finished speaking, there was a knock on the door.
Lin Ruotang opened the door and Guo Tao came with Dongsheng.
"Auntie Lin, give me a hug!"
Lin Ruotang immediately took off her apron, picked up Dongsheng, and put her face against Dongsheng's face with heartache.
"Dongsheng! It's so cold, Auntie Lin will take you to warm up by the fire!"
The last time Xie Wuwei came back, he told Lin Ruotang about the day when Guo Tao pretended to be Chen Zhong and it was Dongsheng who helped him escape from danger. Lin Ruotang was so heartbroken that she secretly shed tears. You know, she hadn't cried for a long time.
After Guo Tao came, he sat on the other side of Wang Dabao, with him and Xie Wuwei sandwiching Wang Dabao in the middle.
The three of them were drinking and talking. Wang Dabao was drunk and said with a tongue tied:
"Thank you, I know... you are actually..."
Having said this, a gleam of light flashed in Wang Dabao's eyes and he stopped.
Xie Wuwei put down his wine glass heavily with a bang.
Wang Dabao changed the subject without changing his expression, but said:
"You are actually the most important people to me! I am an orphan and I haven't had a family reunion dinner in a long time..."
Xie Wuwei smiled, put his arm around Wang Dabao's shoulders, and looked at him meaningfully.
"Brother Dabao, are you drunk?"
"I... am not drunk. I still say the same thing, Brother Xie, no matter how hard it is, I will stick with you!"
Xie Wuwei seemed to be joking, but also seemed to be testing.
"It's not easy to live with me. It's not like the good life before. This is not a good life. You have to think carefully..."
After Xie Wuwei finished speaking, Guo Tao whispered:
"Maybe one day you'll regret it!"
None of the three of them explained it clearly, but everyone knew what they were talking about.
Wang Dabao's eyes separated for a second, then met again, and for a moment they were quite wise.
"The decision I, Wang Dabao, make must be the most correct!"
Guo Tao was very surprised. He asked curiously:
"Why do you conclude that?"
Wang Dabao said something that made people feel helpless and sad.
"For someone like me to be alive and grow up, I'm just lucky...good!"
Lin Ruotang suddenly spoke and said to him:
"You saw me the other day!"
"What are you looking at? My eyesight is poor, I can't see anything!"
When Wang Dabao said this, he fumbled around like a blind man, which made Dongsheng laugh.
"Ha ha!"
"What are you laughing at? Call me Uncle Dabao, Uncle Dabao has candy!"
Wang Dabao said slowly, took out a candy from his pocket, and Dongsheng slid off Lin Ruotang.
"Uncle Dabao...Uncle Dabao!"
Listening to the noise and firecrackers, Xie Wuwei and Lin Ruotang looked at each other.
Guo Tao raised his glass and clinked it with Xie Wuwei's, and everything was said without words.
They also understood what Wang Dabao meant.
Wang Dabao was teasing Dongsheng, and then he remembered something. He walked over and said to Lin Ruotang and the others:
"I... almost forgot. My brother in the inspection team... told me that Deputy Director Wu has been looking for someone lately. I don't know who it is, and he's acting so mysteriously!"
As soon as he said this, Xie Wuwei and Lin Ruotang's faces turned ugly. Wu Youxiang was not someone to be trifled with.
After Wang Dabao left, Guo Tao said to Lin Ruotang:
"Activate 'Turtledove' and have her figure out who Wu Youxiang is looking for. Is he looking for one of our comrades?"
Lin Ruotang nodded, she knew what to do.
After seeing Guo Tao off, Lin Ruotang said to Xie Wuwei:
"Do you think Wu Youxiang is looking for Dong Zhenzhen?"
When Xie Wuwei heard the reason, he raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Where did Wu Wangxiang see Dong Zhenzhen?"
Lin Ruotang frowned slightly, she remembered something,
"I saw half of Dong Zhenzhen's face in the newspaper before, but I thought no one would recognize her."
"Even if he knew Dong Zhenzhen was not dead, he wouldn't be able to find her for a while."
Lin Ruotang shook her head and whispered:
"Not necessarily. The news last time revealed that there was an exchange conference to be held here. Maybe Dong Zhenzhen would come!"
Hearing this, Xie Wuwei and Lin Ruotang looked at each other, and their heads ached.
“There’s a lot to do next year!”
Lin Ruotang whispered, Xie Wuwei took her to the balcony,
"Take a break, there are fireworks outside!"
The two stood on the balcony, looking at the gorgeous fireworks in the sky, snuggling up to each other, and got a moment of peace.
The next day, Lin Ruotang wrote a letter.
When she visited the Wu family, she put it in the Wu family's mailbox.
"Lin Ruotang, Happy New Year!"
Wu Youting came down from upstairs wearing a red sweater. Seeing this, Lin Ruotang said helplessly:
"Be careful!"
"I know you're bored, so I brought you a novel."
Lin Ruotang put down the gift in her hand and sat down to chat with Wu Youting.
After chatting for a while, Lin Ruotang left.
Just as Wu Youting was about to go upstairs, she heard the maid shout:
"Miss, there is a letter for you."
Wu Youting's heart skipped a beat when she took the letter. She quickly ran back to the house, opened it, and found a picture of a "turtledove" on it.
Suddenly her face changed drastically and she covered her chest. "Turtledove" was her code name. The only person who could know this news was her superior. Now she had to activate herself.
Wu Youting wondered who the "magpie" was, and Lin Ruotang's face flashed through her mind.
But no flaws were found in Lin Ruotang, so who could it be?
Could it be that I am overthinking it?
Afterwards, she didn't think about her own thoughts. She picked up the letter and started reading it. It was a very ordinary letter, and the content seemed to be a letter written to her by a classmate.
The content was also very ordinary. She read it over and over for a long time, but could not find any message at all.
"impossible?"
"Nothing at all?"
She just picked up the envelope and was about to put the letter in it when she suddenly thought of something. She turned over the envelope and her eyes lit up.
When Wu Youxiang came back, he heard from the maid that there was a letter from Wu Youting, so he went directly to Wu Youting's room.
"Wu Youting, are you feeling better?"
Wu Youting was startled when she heard Wu Youwang's voice coming from the door.
She quickly put the letter away and said to Wu Youwang:
"much better!"
Wu Youting opened the door and Wu Youhao walked in and looked around.
Wu Youting pulled his sleeve, with anger in her eyes.
"Brother, what do you mean?"
Wu Youhao looked down at Wu Youting and asked seriously:
"The maid said today that you received a letter?"
