Chapter 158 Reunion with Zhang Rou'er
Ye Shaohong is like someone who has been bitten by a snake once and is now afraid of ropes for ten years.
As soon as he realized someone was following him, Ye Shaohong's eyes narrowed immediately.
A cold glint seemed to emanate from it.
Ye Shaohong had already decided to kill the person who was following him.
He also knew that time was of the essence and there was no room for delay.
Once the person following him realizes that he has discovered something, they will definitely take action immediately.
Perhaps in the next second, this person will pull out a gun and shoot him in the back.
For his own safety, Ye Shaohong's mind raced. He spotted a narrow alleyway just a few meters away and, without hesitation, immediately went inside.
Entering the alleyway, Ye Shaohong felt a little relieved after taking a look around.
Fortunately, this was not a dead end. If he continued walking for about ten meters, he could turn into another alley. This terrain was advantageous to Ye Shaohong.
Without hesitation, he quickened his pace and headed towards the corner of the alley.
Ye Shaohong stopped the moment he entered the alleyway.
He pulled out his Browning M1910 pistol from his waistband and waited patiently with his back against the wall.
About two or three seconds later, he heard footsteps.
The footsteps were quick and heavy, indicating that the person had become anxious upon discovering Ye Shaohong's sudden disappearance. This was exactly the outcome Ye Shaohong wanted.
He took a long breath, forcing himself to calm down, then gripped his gun tightly, ready to pounce and subdue his opponent at any moment.
Just then, a slender figure stepped into the alley corner.
The instant the man appeared, Ye Shaohong raised his gun and pressed the muzzle against the man's temple.
"do not move!"
"If you move, I'll shoot you dead."
After the cold words were spoken, Ye Shaohong finally saw the figure and appearance of the person who had come.
He was immediately stunned.
He knew this person; to be precise, he was quite familiar with her. The person who came was Zhang Rou'er.
The school doctor at the Central Military Academy.
She also has another identity: she is Ye Shaohong's elder sister's best friend and the marriage partner chosen by her elder sister for Ye Shaohong.
They're just not engaged yet.
Several months ago, Ye Shaohong graduated from the Central Military Academy. Zhang Rou'er and he returned to their hometown of Fenghua together. Everything seemed like a story from a folk tale.
If nothing unexpected happens, they will likely have a romantic entanglement.
The unexpected thing is that Zhang Rou'er, despite having a very prominent family background, secretly joined the Red Party.
Joining the Red Party is one thing, but it doesn't.
Zhang Rou'er wanted to pull him inside with her.
Ye Shaohong was not actually opposed to joining the Red Party; what he resisted was that Zhang Rou'er's style of doing things was too bold and reckless, and she hardly ever hid her dual identity.
Ye Shaohong and Zhang Rou'er had only met briefly a few times, but he was able to roughly figure out her purpose.
To put it simply, Zhang Rou'er has too little experience in combat and is too naive.
If Ye Shaohong agrees to join the Red Party through her introduction, Ye Shaohong can guarantee that his Red Party identity will be exposed before long.
He was subsequently investigated and pursued by his former colleagues in the Special Service, now the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics.
It could even harm Ye's grandfather, parents, and sisters.
This is something Ye Shaohong absolutely cannot tolerate.
So when Zhang Rou'er went to visit the Ye family, Ye Shaohong said some harsh words in front of her.
It was also a lie. He told Zhang Rou'er that the reason he joined the Special Service was to protect the wealth and rights of their class.
These words immediately angered Zhang Rou'er.
Zhang Rou'er left in anger, leaving behind a message that the two were severing all ties and would never contact each other again.
Some time later, Ye Shaohong unexpectedly ran into Zhang Rou'er in Jinling City. At that time, Zhang Rou'er was walking in a hurry, as if she was very busy and anxious.
Ye Shaohong was surprised. After thinking for a moment, he quietly followed.
Ye Shaohong followed her all the way to the entrance of the alley, and only when he saw Zhang Rou'er's figure suddenly disappear did he turn and leave.
At that time, Ye Shaohong had a rough idea of what Zhang Rou'er was doing, and it was very likely that she was making contact with Red Party members.
There must have been a member of the Communist Party, or a liaison station or a dead mailbox, in that alley. Ye Shaohong simply ignored it.
He didn't tell anyone about it, but kept it to himself.
Ye Shaohong even felt that his story with Zhang Rou'er was about to end.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Rou'er started following him today, and she did so shortly after he left the area of No. 1 Honggong Temple.
She's incredibly bold and reckless.
Isn't she afraid that there might be other survey and statistics bureau personnel on the surrounding streets?
If others were to discover that she dared to follow and stalk the head official of the Bureau of Statistics and Investigations, that single charge would be enough to land her in jail and make it difficult for her to escape.
Even Ye Shaohong, who was being followed, was suspected and speculated about by his colleagues at the Bureau of Statistics.
It is very likely that this will ruin his future, cost him his life, and even bring disaster to the entire Ye family.
Thinking of this, Ye Shaohong was once again thankful that he had been calm and composed enough not to follow Zhang Rou'er's wishes and make contact with the Red Party.
Otherwise, given the current situation, he would have been exposed long ago.
They died long ago.
"It's you?"
Why are you following me?
After a brief moment of stunned silence, Ye Shaohong did not put down the gun. Instead, he asked a question with a gloomy expression and a hint of doubt.
"Brother Ye, it's been a long time."
"We've been old friends for a while now, and your older sister and I have been best friends for many years. It doesn't seem right for you to point a gun at my head like this."
Very surprising.
Unlike when she was at the Central Military Academy, Zhang Rou'er today was less lively and more serious when facing Ye Shaohong.
Of course, there was also a subtle sense of estrangement.
This is normal.
Listening to Zhang Rou'er's words, and recalling the moments they had spent together, especially the time Zhang Rou'er cleaned his wounds and changed his dressings, Ye Shaohong finally softened.
He put down the Browning M1910 in his hand, put it back into his waistband, and then turned to look at the entrance of the alley.
After waiting a moment and seeing that no one was following him, he breathed a long sigh of relief.
"Sister Rou'er, why did you follow me today? Is there something you need?"
"If you have any, just say so."
