Shocking! The young educated youth had just arrived and was already clashing with spies.

Chapter 552 It was nothing but a pipe dream.

Grandpa Gao learned about his eldest son's sudden stroke even before Yu Jing did. The seventy-something-year-old man immediately became listless, and his back became much more hunched.

He blamed himself for not checking on his eldest son's injuries immediately. When he repeatedly asked the hospital if there were any better treatment options, Zhou Wen's extraordinary recovery process came to the forefront.

"The person who treated him was not someone we could control. At that time, the Central Special Branch sent people to isolate the two of them separately. We didn't see what happened, but we can be sure that the person's medical skills were superb."

However, I can't guarantee that the other person also has expertise in cerebral infarction. I can only say that we can give it a try. Besides, we can't contact the person directly; you'll have to find them yourself.

These were the words the dean said to him at the time.

Grandpa Gao withdrew his gaze and slumped into his chair. It seemed that his search was useless.

After a moment of silence, he looked up at the young soldier who had just gone to find Zhou Yichen, "Go and tell Ziyou about this..."

After thinking for a moment, he added, "At the same time, have Ziyang come back from the military hospital, and also Zishuo. Try not to let your wife know, and secretly bring him back as well."

Gao Zishuo, Gao Ziyang's younger brother, was away from Ning City during this time to accompany Grandma Gao back to her hometown to visit relatives.

"Yes!"

The young soldier saluted, then turned and went out to do his errand.

The moment the door closed, Old Master Gao finally couldn't hold on any longer and slumped back in his chair.

What a misfortune for our family! What a misfortune for our family!

Unfortunately, there's no going back, and there's no such thing as knowing beforehand.

Yu Jing was more cunning than imagined. After learning that the people who arrested her were from the Central Special Branch, she still looked like she had finally been saved.

"Comrades, don't listen to those people's nonsense. I really haven't done anything to betray the people or the country. Although I promised to provide them with intelligence, all these years I've been talking about trivial matters that haven't caused much damage. Besides, I was forced to do it all."

Chu Xin looked at her with a half-smile, "This has nothing to do with whether you have a conscience or not. It's because your man is useless. Otherwise, you could have sold the country!"

"When it comes to matters of national stability, there is no such thing as a trivial matter or a major matter. Your actions are endangering national security, which is a serious crime!"

Zhou Yichen's expression was cold. He had no time to listen to a woman spouting lies and, after receiving a signal from Chu Xin, he immediately walked out, leaving them alone.

Yu Jing was confused, but Chu Xin's experience at the hospital had left a shadow on her, and she knew that Chu Xin was not as easy to talk to as she seemed on the surface. Now that she was left alone with Chu Xin, her expression immediately changed.

Are they trying to extract a confession through torture?

The thought startled Yu Jing, who immediately reiterated her identity: "What do you want to do? I told you I'm Commander Gao's daughter-in-law, you can't just touch me."

Chu Xin sat still, leisurely watching Yu Jing struggle with her arms crossed. It seemed that she was in too much pain at the hospital to notice that Zhou Yichen had dismissed Old Man Gao's men and even brought up his status.

"I don't want to do anything, I just want you to say something I want to hear."

After Chu Xin finished speaking, her long-awaited mental energy shot straight into Yu Jing's brain like agile tentacles.

Yu Jing was startled at first, then her face turned pale and she broke out in a cold sweat. She rolled on the ground for a moment, clutching her head in pain, before suddenly becoming still.

Only when she slowly raised her head, her eyes blank and seemingly devoid of soul, did Chu Xin roll up her sleeves, stand up, walk to the door, open it, and beckon to Zhou Yichen standing outside, "Get to work!"

……

Yu Jing was specially brought to Ning City after being spotted by Kuomintang agents.

At that time, because her family did not accept the person she loved, the two of them decided to elope.

Back then, no wealthy young lady would have a good outcome if she caused such a scene, let alone someone from a poor farming family like her.

She ran away to enjoy a happy life, but she didn't get to experience the hunger of going hungry for three days and nine meals a day.

So she ran away again.

She almost sold herself to get food. Even if she couldn't become a concubine who never had to worry about food and drink, at least she could have a full meal.

But what respectable family would want someone like her who wasn't registered in the country? Yu Jing could only gravitate towards shady places, hoping that someone would take a liking to her and give her a meal.

Her first encounter with Kuomintang agents took place at the entrance of a brothel.

The other party was chasing someone, and Yu Jing, who was watching the whole thing, was completely attracted by the money scattered on the ground, and didn't care at all whether she would be killed herself.

She was so hungry, and she wanted the money.

This is how she attracted the attention of the secret agents. After learning that she was all alone and had someone to rely on, they immediately decided to recruit her to the organization. After training, she was tasked with seducing high-ranking Communist Party officials to infiltrate the organization and steal secrets.

At the time, Yu Jing didn't need the spies to say much; she readily agreed on her own. Her desire for a better life was too great; it would be foolish not to accept such a great opportunity presented to her.

It is worth mentioning that Yu Jing was truly dedicated to living a good life. Apart from the fact that the intelligence she provided to the spies was not very good, she made her own life very successful over the past twenty years.

If Zhou Yichen hadn't suddenly interfered, she would definitely have been able to achieve her ultimate dream—to help her son become the heir of the Gao family and completely achieve a leap in social class.

Unfortunately, it's all just a pipe dream now.
