Bai Jingyan's words gave Luo Zixi goosebumps all over:

"Old Bai, this is so sentimental all of a sudden! This doesn't seem like your rough-and-tumble persona at all."

Bai Jingyan was completely confused:

"Personal image?"

Luo Zixi laughed, then realized that Lao Bai was from the 1970s. If she spoke to him in modern terms, how could he possibly understand?

So, she explained it directly:

"It's about the overall impression you give people. Most people think that the guys in your unit are a bit rough around the edges."

Hearing her say that, Lao Bai scratched his head innocently:

"Actually, I'm not rough at all. You'll know once you get to know me better."

Luo Zixi rolled her eyes. If she didn't know that Lao Bai was from the 1970s, she would have kicked him.

They meant exactly what they said; they weren't driving.

At this moment, Luo Zixi ignored him and casually waved her hand:

"Forget about that now, go check on your sister. She still has quite a few injuries; she's probably suffered a lot these past few days. What are your plans for her now?"

This is also something that Bai Jingyan finds quite troublesome:

“My job has been transferred here now. Last time, thanks to you, we brothers were saved, but the people we encountered were very fierce.”

“The organization takes this matter very seriously. If that person were to wreak havoc in Northeast China, it would be an absolute disaster. He is a very skilled enemy agent, and since you saved us, I’m afraid he might also target you.”

"I mentioned this to you in the last letter; I wonder if you've strengthened your defenses."

"As for my sister, I have some connections at work, so I can transfer her to the county town to help me. But that would also put her in greater danger..."

Seeing Bai Jingyan's pleading eyes, Luo Zixi calmly said:

"Don't expect to send anyone to my place. It's not much better there. There's even more stuff and it's much more chaotic there."

"It's fortunate that I'm capable; otherwise, I might be living a worse life than your sister."

Upon hearing this, Bai Jingyan abruptly turned his head, his eyes filled with a chilling light:

"Those villagers dare to give you trouble? They're really asking for it! I'm going to deal with them right now..."

Bai Jingyan really wanted to get away and leave. He wanted to warn everyone that Luo Zixi was his person, and anyone who dared to touch a hair on Luo Zixi's head would be in for a bullet!

Of course, this was just his internal reaction; if it were to happen openly, he certainly wouldn't go that far.

He has a position, so there are still some limitations.

But giving those guys a small punishment as a warning is perfectly fine.

Luo Zixi pressed him back down directly:

"Come on, don't you know me? There's no one in this world who can make me suffer yet."

"Stop beating around the bush! What about my consultation fee? We agreed on double, don't try to renege. Even though we're acquaintances and old friends, it's one thing at a time, not a penny less!"

Bai Jingyan couldn't help but laugh when he saw Luo Zixi's greedy little face.

This girl usually seems quiet and gentle, but when it comes to money, she becomes extremely calculating and won't give up a single penny!

It would be very difficult to squeeze a single penny out of him.

But thinking about it, it's a miracle that this young girl, all alone and having been schemed against since childhood, has managed to survive until now.

Perhaps that's why Luo Zixi isn't easily bullied.

However, these are all things that Luo Zixi deserves. Since she promised to give them to her, she naturally cannot go back on her word.

Bai Jingyan smiled and nodded:

"Don't worry, everything I promised you, down to the last penny, is exactly what you'll get!"

"However, I need to take my sister to the county town and ask my comrade to help take care of her. I need to settle her in first. I'm really worried about leaving her here on Feiyun Mountain."

Luo Zixi didn't say much when she heard him say that, since it was just something she was doing on the way.

There's a small jeep; although the seats are a bit hard, it's still very convenient.

Bai Jingyan took Bai Weiwei to the county town, where his comrades-in-arms received her, several of whom were people he had met Luo Zixi before.

Upon seeing the girl again, the group of soldiers were very excited and immediately saluted her.

"Hello, sister-in-law!"

When Luo Zixi heard them say that, she almost kicked them!

However, Bai Jingyan slapped them on the forehead:

"What nonsense are you spouting? This is Comrade Luo Zixi. The organization has a mission and needs her to help. If you talk nonsense again, we'll beat you up!"

Of course, the slap wasn't very forceful; it even had a hint of encouragement.

"Good bro, that was a really good assist."

This is the tacit understanding between them as comrades-in-arms; they playfully and unknowingly provided assistance.

Luo Zixi snorted coldly, ignoring them, and said directly to Bai Jingyan:

"Hurry up, take the money, I still need to go back and prepare things for winter."

The winters in Northeast China are truly freezing, even though Luo Zixi had plenty of supplies and had already made all the necessary preparations.

But I still have to put on an act, otherwise how can I explain the origin of so many of my things?

The more trips we make and the more goods we transport, the more we'll be able to bring into the open in the future.

Her private space is her biggest secret, and she has no intention of sharing it with anyone.

Even your closest relatives in the future are not allowed.

Hearing Luo Zixi's words, Bai Jingyan scratched his head innocently. Seeing the two of them like this, Bai Weiwei's previously gloomy mood brightened considerably.
