When they were approaching the house where Gu Huaijin was.

Ji Chutang was still scared.

Across the street, he glanced at the opposite side from a distance and then retracted his head in a cowardly manner.

System: [Tsk tsk tsk…]

Ignoring the system's sarcasm, Ji Chutang decisively chose to take a roundabout route.

Let’s go and find the heroine!

With the guidance of the system, Ji Chutang successfully found the hiding place of the heroine and her group.

It just so happened that the heroine also arrived in the mountain city, and now she is the owner of a tavern.

As we approached the tavern, we saw that besides the heroine Cheng Xiang, there were several helpers, all of whom were members of the Red Party.

When Cheng Xiang saw Ji Chutang, she was stunned. She knew Ji Chutang, but Ji Chutang had not joined the Red Party at that time and was still studying at Maria School for Nobles.

He published many articles with deep insights into many events. Cheng Xiang was still studying at the time and had read Ji Chutang's works with great respect.

Later, when Ji Chutang's identity was exposed, she saw this Mr. "Gu Guo" in the newspaper.

Later, she naturally learned that she and Gu Huaijin were adopted siblings.

However, she didn't pay special attention to their affairs, so she didn't know that they were together later.

Seeing Ji Chutang appear in such a tavern naturally aroused Cheng Xiang's high alert.

Could it be that Gu Huaijin regretted letting them go and wanted to arrest them as well?

She had also heard a little about what had happened recently. Gu Huaijin had secretly arrested many of their people, and the higher-ups had sent a message asking them to be more secretive.

So she was wondering how Gu Huaijin knew that they had entered the mountain city and settled here.

Ji Chutang walked in and went straight towards Cheng Xiang. Cheng Xiang looked alert, although she once admired this beautiful lady very much.

But now the position is different.

She didn't know that Ji Chutang had joined the Red Party.

Ji Chutang walked up to her, put on a sweet smile very obediently, and then looked at Cheng Xiang with pitiful eyes.

Cheng Xiang felt her heart was pounding.

Her ears turned red when she looked at him, and he spoke uncomfortably: "Miss, do you need any help?"

She was just saying this out of politeness.

Unexpectedly, Ji Chutang nodded rapidly, his eyes showing need, particular need.

Cheng Xiang was stunned and asked in an uncertain tone: "What help do you need?"

Ji Chutang stretched out his hand with a serious face and pulled Cheng Xiang, and dragged her into the tavern.

It’s not that she’s very strong, but Cheng Xiang saw that she looked serious but very well-behaved, so his legs moved on their own.

When we entered the tavern, there was no one else around.

Ji Chutang immediately started to chatter: "I know you are Gu Huaijin's savior, can you go and save the other comrades he has captured? He will definitely not make things difficult for you."

As soon as these words came out, Cheng Xiang's body froze.

One reason is that Ji Chutang's words were very ambiguous. She called their comrades comrades.

The second reason is that she asked her to find that evil star Gu Huaijin.

Cheng Xiang looked into Ji Chutang's bright, pleading eyes, and the corners of her mouth twitched involuntarily.

"Miss... I don't quite understand what you are saying. We are ordinary people, how can we know a great man like General Gu? You are really joking..."

Ji Chutang became anxious after hearing this, knowing that they definitely didn't believe her.

In order to prove himself, Ji Chutang hurriedly spoke: "I am your man, really, my code name is Jinguo, lurking beside Gu Huaijin, now I am exposed, I should have retreated, but my superiors asked me to persuade Gu Huaijin to reconcile... I dare not."

The last sentence sounded even more pathetic.

Cheng Xiang's eyes twitched wildly, and the corners of his mouth twitched as well.

You don't dare, but I do?

However, Cheng Xiang has taken Ji Chutang's words seriously. If she is really one of them, it would be fine. If not, it means that the place they are in is very unsafe.

The matter was of great importance, so Cheng Xiang said very seriously: "Miss Ji, I need to verify it. Before that, I may have to inconvenience you."

Ji Chutang nodded without any panic.

Then he said very impolitely: "I'm hungry. Can you give me something delicious? I'm not picky. As long as there is meat and vegetables, it's fine. It would be better if there is some rice. I would be even happier if there is some dessert."

Cheng Xiang saw her chattering and arranged everything with just a few words, and she was so angry that she laughed.

But looking at such a little face, I couldn't say anything harsh.

I can only pretend to be serious and tough: "Miss Ji, please wait for us to verify your identity before talking."

Then left.

Although he said some impolite words, he still arranged a room for Ji Chutang, which even had a bed.

She was also provided with food and even candy.

Just like coaxing a child.

The system is very sure: [A few candies to coax a child, the host will not like it. ]

After saying this, she saw Ji Chutang's eyes sparkling, looking at the candies prepared for her with surprise, without even bothering to eat first, she peeled one and put it in her mouth directly.

He swung his feet happily.

system:【……】

After Ji Chutang finished his meal, Cheng Xiang appeared, looked at Ji Chutang with an apologetic look, and said, "I'm glad. We are comrades. I'm sorry that I detained you just now. I had to do it. It's a special period. Please forgive me."

Ji Chutang was about to reply her with a smile, but then he seemed to remember something and immediately frowned: "I can't forgive you."

The system was fully aware of Ji Chutang's thoughts and knew that she was up to something. It just felt sorry for the heroine for two seconds.

Seeing Ji Chutang's eyes rolling around, he glanced at Cheng Xiang, and seeing her distressed face, he said very "considerately": "Unless you promise to help me."

Cheng Xiang was stunned. After thinking about Gu Huaijin's handsome face, she gritted her teeth and agreed.

Ji Chutang immediately smiled so hard that his teeth were showing.

After resolving his biggest worry, Ji Chutang immediately returned to his carefree self, able to eat and sleep well, and relishing everything he ate.

Then he settled down in Cheng Xiang's tavern and waited for good news.

Cheng Xiang agreed to Ji Chutang's request because he also wanted to help his comrades, and of course there was also a reason why he could not resist Ji Chutang's request.

The next day, Cheng Xiang found a way to pass the message to Gu Huaijin and found a little beggar to deliver the letter.

receive an email.

Gu Huaijin was not planning to read it at first, but then he thought, what if it was news about Ji Chutang? With this thought, he couldn't wait to open the envelope.

After opening it, I saw only a few short sentences written on the letter.

[General Gu, long time no see, how are you these days? I am the old friend who saved you in Yuhe Town. I heard recently that you have arrested many of our comrades. Cheng Xiang hereby boldly requests that you release them for the sake of saving my life. Cheng Xiang is very grateful.]

Not only did this letter fail to make Gu Huaijin feel like letting go of other people, but it made him suspicious.
