Chapter 209 Feeding Breakfast
Chapter 209 Feeding Breakfast
Jiang Shiyuan poured a glass of warm water for each of them, and took a big gulp before saying, "I came back around eleven o'clock last night. I thought you should have rested, so I didn't disturb you."
"Xiaoyuan, why do you seem so distant after coming back from Jinling?" Fang Lansheng crossed his arms and pretended to be displeased.
"No, it's just..." Jiang Shiyuan wanted to explain but was interrupted by Fang Lansheng.
"Okay, I won't tease you anymore." Fang Lansheng also drank a sip of warm water and said with a smile, "Come on, I'll treat you to some soup dumplings."
"No, I have to go to Jiayuan Pharmaceutical later." Jiang Shiyuan waved his hand and declined.
"Man is iron and food is steel. It's never too late to go after you're full!"
Fang Lansheng pulled Jiang Shiyuan's slender arm and walked out without saying anything.
"Hey, Lan Sheng, I'm still in my pajamas and haven't washed up yet..."
Jiang Shiyuan was being pulled by him, feeling a little amused and helpless at this moment.
Fang Lansheng slapped his forehead and said, "Oh, I'm so happy to see you return safely from Jinling that I'm going crazy!"
"Well, wash up first and I'll go buy it for you. Just wait for me to come back!"
Without waiting for Jiang Shiyuan to refuse, he quickly took out his wallet from his briefcase and rushed out the door like the wind.
Seeing this, Jiang Shiyuan held his forehead helplessly, and then chose to go wash up obediently and wait for him to come back to feed him breakfast.
After she had packed up and changed into a smart and heroic three-piece suit, she heard the doorbell ring.
Jiang Shiyuan leaned over the peephole and confirmed that it was Fang Lansheng who came back from buying breakfast, then he quickly opened the door.
"I thought you must not have eaten well during your stay in Jinling, so I bought some soup dumplings and pan-fried dumplings, as well as some warm and stomach-nourishing red date millet porridge."
Fang Lansheng gently placed the breakfast on the dining table and introduced them one by one with a smile.
Jiang Shiyuan's foodie nature was instantly aroused, his eyes sparkled as he said, "Lan Sheng, you understand me so well. It turns out that our own comrades are the most caring!"
So the two of them sat at the dining table and chatted while eating, each sharing their experiences and observations of the past few days.
It was not until Fang Lansheng heard the story told by Jiang Shiyuan, an eyewitness, that he realized that the crimes committed by the Japanese pirates as reported in newspapers were far less than the tip of the iceberg in reality.
Jiang Shiyuan also learned that many of the high-ranking Japanese pirate officials who were responsible for taking over the Japanese Concession in Shanghai were fans of Peking Opera.
They had asked people to invite Fang Lansheng many times to perform for them in the Japanese Concession, and they offered their own price for the performance, but Fang Lansheng refused every time on the grounds of poor health.
In order to prevent the Japanese pirates from finding any evidence against him, Fang Lansheng had to stop all performances in the French Concession and the International Settlement.
After he had some free time, he would go to Ping An Pharmacy with Lao Huang every day to look after the store and write new anti-Japanese scripts.
"Humph, these little devils are dreaming of having you, the famous 'Boss Fang', perform for them. I think they are dreaming!"
After Jiang Shiyuan finished speaking, he took a big bite of the soup dumpling, causing the juice to splatter onto the front of Fang Lansheng's royal blue gown.
"Oh, sorry, I'm so sorry..." She hurriedly stood up and wiped it for him with a napkin.
Fang Lansheng coughed twice and gently took the napkin, "It's okay... Xiaoyuan, I'll do it myself..."
Then he suddenly stood up and said awkwardly: "Well, I'll go back and change my clothes first..."
"Eat slowly, and remember to finish all the millet porridge. It's good for your stomach..."
Jiang Shiyuan nodded obediently, "Okay, then go change first."
After hearing the door close, she sighed softly, "Oh, this is so horrible, the comrade who has been through thick and thin with me is actually a male mother!"
Ten minutes later, Fang Lansheng sat back at the dining table and suddenly seemed to remember something. He asked, "By the way, Xiaoyuan, what are your plans next?"
"I should continue to run between Sacred Heart Hospital and Jiayuan Pharmaceutical, and then complete the various tasks assigned by the organization!"
"However, I have a feeling that the Japanese pirates will soon establish a new spy agency in Shanghai."
"When the time comes, I will most likely use my identity as a Japanese spy and go work there."
When Fang Lansheng heard this, his eyes were filled with worry.
Jiang Shiyuan continued: "The identity of a Japanese spy is not easy to come by. You can't get a tiger cub without taking risks."
"Lan Sheng, don't worry, I will be cautious and protect myself."
Fang Lansheng was deeply touched when he saw her determined and fearless eyes.
"Xiaoyuan, as your comrade and your friend, I am really proud of you."
"Introducing you to the organization was the wisest decision I have ever made in my life."
Jiang Shiyuan immediately said solemnly: "Lan Sheng, I am also proud and proud to join the party organization and have these comrades and close friends in our Lantern Bearers Group!"
After cleaning up the table, the two went downstairs side by side, went to the roadside and each hailed a rickshaw.
"Meet at my house at 7 o'clock this evening. I will cook for you and welcome you home." Fang Lansheng said to Jiang Shiyuan who was about to get in the car.
"Not tonight, I have to go back to Jiang Mansion. Let's meet at seven o'clock tomorrow night!" Jiang Shiyuan waved at him with a smile, then got into the rickshaw.
"Master, go to Jiayuan Pharmaceutical."
"okay!"
The rickshaw driver pulled up the rickshaw and ran towards Jiayuan Pharmaceutical.
Fang Lansheng watched Jiang Shiyuan's rickshaw go away. The smile on his face gradually disappeared, replaced by a solemn look.
He knew that Jiang Shiyuan was destined to face more dangers and challenges this time as he had multiple identities.
But he believed that no matter what difficulties she encountered, she would be able to overcome them.
She always has the ability to turn the tide and create miracles.
He and the party organization behind him will always be by her side and be her strongest support.
***
The rickshaw stopped in front of Jiayuan Pharmaceutical.
Jiang Shiyuan paid the taxi fare and quickly walked into the gate of Jiayuan Pharmaceutical Company.
She hurried to the door of Chen Jingan's office and knocked gently.
"Enter."
Hearing Chen Jingan's low voice, Jiang Shiyuan pushed the door open and walked in.
"Brother Jing'an, I'm back!"
Chen Jing'an suddenly raised his head from his desk, and the moment he saw Jiang Shiyuan, he was stunned.
The next second, he suddenly stood up, rushed to Jiang Shiyuan regardless of everything, and hugged her tightly in his arms.
"Ayuan, you are finally back safely..."
His voice was choked with sobs, and he held her tightly with both hands, as if he wanted to rub her into his body.
Jiang Shiyuan felt the rise and fall of his chest and heard his voice as he suppressed his emotions, but still resisted the urge to push him away.
She patted Chen Jing'an's back gently and said softly, "Brother Jing'an, I'm sorry to have worried you. I'm back safe and sound..."
Chen Jing'an let her go, held her face in his hands, looked at her carefully, his eyes slightly red.
"Why did you suddenly leave without saying goodbye? There was no news at all. Do you know how worried my sister and I were?"
