Chapter 646 [Pretender 7]
Mingjing returned home in a happy mood. She was relieved and happy to learn that Mingtai sent postcards every week. However, when she heard that the shipping company could not pick up the goods, she couldn't help but feel worried. She immediately called and tried to communicate with the other party and seek a solution, but she got an unexpected answer.
"This is an order from above, we can't do anything about it!" The owner of the shipping company said firmly, "Besides, with your status, it shouldn't be difficult to deduct a stamp, right? I heard that your brother got promoted recently!" Ming Jing frowned slightly when he heard this, and picked up the newspaper beside him and read it carefully. It turned out that Ming Tai was promoted again within the Wang Puppet Government, which made Ming Jing's face instantly angry.
Meanwhile, Wang Manchun sent his men to test Minglou. They pretended to be representatives of Dai Li, the head of the Kuomintang Military Intelligence Bureau, and claimed to contact Minglou. However, Minglou saw through the plot at a glance and quickly broke the man's glasses and slashed his throat with the lens. The man fell to the ground and died, and the ground was stained with blood. Minglou was not afraid and directly stated his position to Wang Manchun, warning her not to have any illusions or intentions about him.
"I advise you to put away these little thoughts and stop plotting against me." Ming Lou's eyes revealed a firmness and majesty that made people dare not challenge him easily. He knew Wang Manchun's methods and ambitions, but he would never let her succeed. In this vortex of power struggle, Ming Lou must always be vigilant to protect the safety of himself and his family.
Wang Manchun's father quickly came over to smooth things over: "We are all family, don't hurt the harmony!"
At this moment, Ming Jing walked in arrogantly, and as soon as he entered the room, he scolded Wang Manchun's uncle: "I tell you, my father left a legacy that you should not form an alliance, marriage, or friendship with the Wang family. You'd better give up this idea!" Then he turned to Wang Manchun and said, "And you, don't think I don't know what you Wang family are thinking. You want to swallow up our Ming family's property? No way! I think you should deal with your own family affairs first before you come to our Ming family!"
Finally, Mingjing did not forget to teach Minglou a lesson: "Look at you, hanging out with these people all day long, what kind of person do you look like!" After saying that, Mingjing turned around and left the banquet hall.
Wang Manchun couldn't stand it. Although she was pretending, who wouldn't be angry when someone said that? Moreover, the relationship between her and Minglou broke down because of Mingjing. So she threatened Mingjing: "Don't go too far!"
However, Ming Lou, who had just been slapped by his sister Ming Jing, now shouted at Wang Manchun: "Shut up! You have no right to speak here!"
Wang Manchun had no choice but to swallow her anger for the time being.
Ming Lou had an important mission, and he could not easily follow his sister's advice and go home. Instead, he decided to call Liang Zhongchun and Wang Manchun and hold a meeting. Now, Ming Lou has been promoted to deputy director of the Special Affairs Committee of the Wang Puppet Government and has become the direct superior of Wang and Liang.
At the meeting, Minglou skillfully used strategies to force Liang Zhongchun to admit that they had made mistakes in their previous work, killing innocent people. At the same time, he also bluntly criticized Wang Manchun for her lack of results in intelligence work. However, after the criticism, he showed his caring and comforting side, which made Wang Manchun feel a little warm.
Despite this, Liang Zhongchun still had doubts about Minglou after the meeting, but surprisingly, Wang Manchun seemed to have lost interest in working with him.
Minglou and Acheng did not go to the appointment as originally planned, but went home directly. This is because they knew that they were under surveillance and it might be dangerous if they acted according to the original plan. Uncle Li was the leader of the underground Communist Party of China's anti-espionage team. They originally planned to meet with him, but now the situation has become complicated.
When Minglou returned home, his sister Mingjing started to curse him, accusing him of betraying his country and joining the enemy. Minglou responded calmly, "I only know that I must be loyal to my country, and other things have nothing to do with me." Mingjing was even more angry after hearing this, and she thought Minglou had become a traitor who sold out his country for personal gain.
However, Minglou did not care about his sister's scolding. He firmly stated that everything he did was for the benefit of the country and the nation. Although the outside world misunderstood him, he firmly believed that one day the truth would be revealed to the world.
Finally, Mingjing asked Minglou to give a reasonable explanation. After all, he now holds an important position in the Wang Puppet Government - Chief Finance Minister. Facing his sister's questioning, Minglou fell into deep thought. He needed to come up with a way to protect his family's safety while continuing to complete his mission...
Ming Lou went on to say, “There’s more than that. There’s also the deputy director of the Special Affairs Committee.”
Hearing this, Ming Jing was so angry that she was shaking all over. Her eyes were wide open and she shouted at Ming Lou: "Don't tell me that this is the so-called 'roundabout way to save the country'!"
Ming Lou replied without flinching, "Sister, I am really saving the country in a roundabout way."
Ming Jing didn't believe his words at all. She picked up the family rules on the table and whipped Ming Lou severely, then asked again: "Are you a traitor?"
Ming Lou endured the pain, looked at Ming Jing firmly, and said word by word: "I am Chinese, and I am also your family."
The brother and sister stared at each other for a long time without saying anything. After a while, Ming Jing broke the silence and said, "Well, in that case, I will give you a chance to distinguish between loyalty and betrayal. I need to pick up two boxes of goods, and I also need to go to Hong Kong and visit Ming Tai."
Ming Lou said without hesitation, "I'll sign it right away." Then he knelt down and quickly signed the document.
After finishing, Minglou raised his head and asked his elder sister carefully: "Can I ask where this batch of goods is going?"
However, Mingjing did not tell him the answer directly, but responded lightly: "They will be transported to the anti-Japanese front." After that, she turned and left the room.
Minglou frowned, looked at Ah Cheng seriously and said, "This matter is not that simple, we need to analyze it carefully."
Ah Cheng nodded in agreement. After a moment of silence, Ming Lou continued, "As far as I know, your sister is now a red capitalist, which is not an ordinary identity!" Ah Cheng's eyes widened when he heard this, and he realized that there might be huge risks behind this identity.
"Countless eyes are staring at the prominent Ming family. Especially since my sister's current identity is so special, it is attracting even more attention." Ah Cheng said worriedly.
Ming Lou sighed and shook his head helplessly: "Yes, but it has come to this point, what can we do?"
Ah Cheng thought about it and suggested: "Why don't we send someone to secretly protect my sister and ensure her safety."
Ming Lou thought for a moment and replied, "That's a good idea, but be careful not to be discovered by her. Go and make some arrangements, find a few reliable people, and follow her quietly."
Ah Cheng nodded, turned around and left to make arrangements.
