After living a new life for my neighbor's grandmother, I traveled through the book again

Tong Jia looked at Tao Junle who was sitting on his bed sulking, and felt a little amused.

She knew that Tao Junle didn't want to be a burden to her, but when he was really in danger, there were too many emergencies. When the situation became irreversible, it might be too late to take him to the RV.

However, that is something that has not happened yet.

Moreover, she felt that Tao Junle was quite easy to coax, and she didn't know when the next danger would be, so she might as well agree to him now and apologize later.

Thinking of this, Tong Jia poked Tao Junle's forehead with her index finger.

Seeing that Tao Junle still ignored her, she said helplessly: "Little guy, you are quite angry.

At such a young age, his cheeks were puffed up and he looked like he was about to become a puffer fish due to anger.

"Okay, don't be angry. I promise you, if we encounter danger again, I will fight alongside you."

[Without my consent, you cannot knock me unconscious or control my freedom at will.] Tao Junle took out a small notebook and wrote carefully on it.

Tong Jia rubbed Tao Junle's head, took the notebook, tore up the papers the two of them had just written, and threw them into the RV.

When she turned around again, she saw Tao Junle still staring at her, waiting for her answer.

So, he nodded and said, "I'm really afraid of you. I promise you, I promise you everything.

I haven't slept much for two consecutive nights, so please stop making weird requests and delaying my sleep."

After saying that, he took off his shoes, got on the bed inside, and fell asleep with his clothes on and the quilt in his arms.

Tong Jia was sleepy, but Tao Junle was not. Under the effect of the drug, he had slept well all night.

Worried that Tong Jia would catch a cold, he pulled the quilt in Tong Jia's arms. Tong Jia thought that Tao Junle still wanted to talk to her about what had just happened, so she pretended to be asleep and just held on to the quilt tightly.

Tao Junle was helpless. Although he knew Tong Jia was pretending to sleep, he was reluctant to push her up. He had to pick up the quilt on his bed and cover Tong Jia with it.

He sat on the edge of the bed, took a notebook and pen, and started sketching Tong Jia.

This is also what he learned from the book when he was reading in the RV.

He spent the whole morning painting this picture.

If Gao Chong hadn't come to call Tong Jia and inform them that Yuan Shengnan had returned, Tong Jia would have continued sleeping and Tao Junle would have continued painting.

Gao Chong knew that Tong Jia would need some time to wash up after waking up, so he didn't wait at the door for too long.

After Tong Jia agreed to go to the living room of the He family for a while, she lay on the bed for a while to wake herself up before sitting up and preparing to go into the RV to wash her face.

As soon as I sat up, I saw Tao Junle putting the notebook back into his pocket.

Tong Jia was worried that he was still angry and tried to tease him.

He asked, "Le Le, you didn't write something in your little notebook to scold me while I was sleeping, did you?"

Tao Junle shook his head, afraid that Tong Jia didn't believe him, and shook his hands left and right to indicate that he didn't.

Tong Jia said, "If not, why did you rush to collect the notebook when you saw I woke up?

You must have written something bad about me in the notebook and put it away quickly because you didn't want me to see it.

If you really don't have it, just show me the notebook.

If you have seen it, I will believe you."

Tao Junle blushed and lowered his head, struggling over whether to give the notebook to Tong Jia.

Tong Jia said, "Are you going to show it to me or not? I have to go to the lobby as soon as possible to discuss our next plan with them. If you don't show it to me, I'll..."

Tao Junle was particularly afraid that Tong Jia would say that she didn't want him. Even though he was angry with Tong Jia this morning, he was still unsure in his heart.

Now I am even more worried that once Tong Jia says something, there will be no way to recover.

Without caring about being embarrassed, he quickly took out the notebook and handed it to Tong Jia.

Tong Jia picked up the notebook and flipped through it, and saw three portraits of herself inside.

Although the brushwork is immature, it can be seen that the painter put his emotions into the painting.

Tong Jia thought that Tao Junle didn't show her the paintings before because he was worried that she would laugh at him after seeing them.

He took the initiative to praise her, saying, "You only learned by reading books before, but you can draw so well on your first try. There's nothing to be embarrassed about.

You draw very well, much better than the first time I drew.

When I have time in the future, I will teach you personally and I will definitely make you better than me.

Since you are such a good painter and so talented, and the protagonist in the painting is me, these three paintings will be regarded as your apprenticeship gift to me, and I will keep them as a souvenir.

Also, this notebook is for you and me to write and communicate. These papers are not suitable for drawing, and the pens are not suitable.

Come back later and I'll find you some suitable drawing paper and brushes from the RV. You can use those for your future paintings.

If you want to do your work well, you must first sharpen your tools."

Tao Jun was happy to see that Tong Jia didn't notice the subtle emotions in his heart, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He was really worried that Tong Jia would notice something and chase him away.

Since Tong Jia is willing to teach me how to paint, I must learn well and not let Tong Jia down.

He nodded solemnly to Tong Jia and promised that he would study hard in the future.

Because Yuan Shengnan was still waiting for her, Tong Jia didn't say anything more to Tao Junle.

I entered the RV and got myself ready in three minutes. When I came out, Tao Junle had already folded the bedding.

The two went to the He family's hall together, where Yuan Shengnan, Gao Chong, He Zhishu and He Zhicheng were already waiting.

Seeing Tong Jia and Tao Junle coming over, He Zhicheng stood up, gave his seat to Tong Jia, and stood beside Tong Jia with his arm around Tao Junle's shoulders.

Yuan Shengnan asked: "Have you rested well?"

Tong Jia nodded and said, "I've had a good rest. I..."

"I know what you mean. Because this incident has caused such a big stir, you can't go back to Beiyang University.

I have reported your situation to the organization. After research, they should assign you a new task.

Because we plan to take advantage of the chaos in Tianjin City these days to transport the things stored here to the mountains in batches.

Do you want to stay at the He family, or take the transported items and return to the mountains with us?" Yuan Shengnan directly stated the purpose of this trip.

He Zhicheng said: "Our family..."

"I'm going to the mountains." Tong Jia and He Zhicheng spoke at the same time.

After Tong Jia finished speaking, He Zhicheng swallowed the rest of his words.

Everyone looked at Tong Jia, waiting for her to continue.

She explained: "I was taken away from school by the Pei family. Even if there were only a few students in the school, someone would definitely contact the teacher.

Regardless of whether I was wrongly accused or I really killed someone, the school will investigate the matter.

Maybe they haven’t had the time to ask yesterday, today, or even the day after tomorrow, but they will ask sooner or later.

Once we really ask the Pei family, we won’t be able to hide the fact that we are missing.

The police will definitely intervene, and then it will be even more difficult to go to the mountains."

Yuan Shengnan nodded and said, "That's what I meant. Since you think so, then pack up and come back to the mountains with me this afternoon."

Tong Jia also nodded and replied, "I don't have anything to pack, I just need to take Lele with me."

Yuan Shengnan glanced at Lele and said to He Zhicheng, "This child probably hasn't eaten since he was kidnapped. Zhicheng, take the child to eat first."

It was obvious that he wanted to get Tao Junle away and talk to Tong Jia alone.

Tao Junle sensitively sensed that Yuan Shengnan probably didn't want Tong Jia to take her with her.

But he didn't want to be separated from Tong Jia, even for his own good.

After breaking free from He Zhicheng's arms, Tao Junle walked to Tong Jia, held Tong Jia's hands with both hands, and snuggled into Tong Jia's arms.

At the same time, he also wrote on Tong Jia's palm: [You promised me that you can't abandon me. No matter what happens in the future, we must be together. If you go back on your word, I will starve myself to death.]

Tong Jia was speechless and glanced at Tao Junle who was threatening her life in a ferocious manner.

She could only shift her focus to trying to persuade Yuan Shengnan. She said, "My new assignment hasn't come down yet, has it? Could you please report my situation to the higher-ups again?"

This kid...ah...the reason why he can't speak is because after his parents died, his uncle poisoned him in order to prevent him from inheriting the family property.

He doesn't trust anyone but me.

If he wasn't with me, he'd probably starve to death."

Tao Junle didn't expect Tong Jia to directly say the words he had just threatened her with. After looking at Tong Jia, he looked at Yuan Shengnan with a very firm gaze.

Yuan Shengnan felt that if she did not agree to let Tong Jia take Tao Junle to carry out the next task, the child would die to prove his loyalty.

Yuan Shengnan said, "There's really no precedent for this before. I'll report this to the higher-ups first and see how they respond."

Seeing that everything had been discussed, He Zhishu stood up and said, "You still have to go back to the mountains this afternoon. It's getting late, so let's eat first.

Everything is still undecided, we can't really let our Lele starve to death, right?"

Everyone laughed when they heard this.

Except for Tao Junle, who glared at Tong Jia, then worried that she was really angry. He then looked at her cautiously and wrote on her palm: [I'm sorry, please don't leave me.]

Tong Jia smiled helplessly at everyone, patted Tao Junle's head, and said, "Stop laughing at him. The child is embarrassed."

After dinner, Tong Jia also knew where the Pei family tunnel led to.

There are actually three forks inside. One is from the Pei family villa to the Pei family old house, one is from the Pei family villa to the outside of Jingyuan Gate, and the other is from the Pei family villa directly to the Fuso Consulate.

From this we can see that the Pei family, especially Pei Yingxue's father, often went to Jingyuan to pay tribute in the name of restoration, but in fact it was the Fuso Kingdom that was closely colluding with him.

It was for this reason that Yuan Shengnan, who originally planned to develop Pei Yingxue into the organization, gave up this decision.

She said: "The Pei family is too involved in this matter, and it seems that there is not a single good person in that family.

Growing up in a family like that, is Pei Yingxue really the same as she appears to be?

I doubt this.

It is true that good things can come out of bad things, but our organization cannot afford to take the risk.”

In fact, it is because Pei Yingxue has not shown how determined she is to join the organization.

There was no way for her to prove her innocence, nor was there anything important enough for Yuan Shengnan to take the risk to keep her.

Tong Jia expressed her understanding of Yuan Shengnan's words.

It was just right that during the time she went to the mountains, she could have a good chat with Pei Yingxue and see what she really thought about the future.

That afternoon, Tong Jia took Tao Junle and followed Yuan Shengnan back to the mountains.

But as soon as they came back, the people who stayed in the mountains immediately came to report a piece of news that caught them off guard - Pei Yingxue had left a letter and ran away.

The letter said that she was grateful to Yuan Shengnan for saving her, but she could not rely on her.

Since she took a lot of money with her when she left home, her family should be well-off and they are most likely from Beijing, so she planned to go find her relatives by herself and asked Yuan Shengnan not to look for her.

"Looking for relatives?" Tong Jia looked at the letter again and asked in confusion.

Yuan Shengnan explained: "Maybe the blow of being betrayed by her family was too great, she forgot a lot of things, and even spoke in Beijing dialect.

This is also one of the reasons why I said before that I didn’t dare to fully trust Pei Yingxue.

It's better that she left on her own, so we don't have to figure out where to go for her.

However, since she left on her own, it is very likely that she will bring someone else here later.

I can't stay in this place anymore.

We have to move to a new place."

So, Tong Jia, who had just entered the mountain and had no time to rest, followed Yuan Shengnan's large group to move.

Unlike the light travel they had when they went into the mountains, this time she and Tao Junle also had to help move things. They ran back and forth three times before they finished moving everything before dark.

The transportation of the things stored in the He family was directly changed to tomorrow.

After a battle of wits and courage with the personnel at the two checkpoints, it took them three days to transfer all the guns and ammunition found from the Pei family to the new base.

That is, after the last batch of goods left the city, there were suddenly many more Japanese people in Tianjin City, and even the checkpoints were checked by more Japanese people.

He Zhishu, who had just left the city with that group of people, couldn't help but feel a little scared. He didn't dare to think about what would happen if he was a step slower. Would he be beheaded or tortured?

After sending the things, the He brothers and Gao Chong returned to Tianjin City again and lived the same life as before.

It’s different from the three of them, because the house in the new base was prepared as a retreat.

There are not many rooms, only two, one for men and one for women, both with dormitories.

Now Tong Jia and Tao Junle had to live separately and could not find any time to enter the RV every day. This gave Tong Jia more opportunities to make insoles. She also took the opportunity to teach Tao Junle to draw and used an awl to poke self-defense weapons on the insoles that might be used in the future.

However, the insoles could not be completely put away, and it was not suitable to put them in the room, so she made two pairs, hid one pair, and gave the other pair away.

Because of the insoles, she gained a lot of popularity.

Tong Jia thinks it’s nice to live a simple life without all the complicated troubles.

But she knew that in today's world, this kind of life would not last long.

Sure enough, a month later, she finally received her new task.
