Chapter 85: Pretending

“But…” Qingqiu knew that it was dangerous. “If we fail to pa.s.s on this information, thousands of compatriots who are at the frontline may be in danger. It doesn’t affect me, but we should think about the people fighting. We can’t be selfish.”

Jiang Chao closed his eyes. It wasn’t because Qingqiu had persuaded him, but the struggles hurt him.

What to choose between personal safety and righteousness? It seemed that they had no choice, they discussed it a lot but they could not come to any conclusion.

“We’ll go together.” Jiang Chao held Qingqiu’s hand tightly. “Even if we die, we’ll die together.”

“Oh,” Qingqiu cried and reached out to hug Jiang Chao. It was their misfortune to live in this time, however it was the greatest happiness in her life to meet him, even though their lives wouldn’t last. But everyone must die someday, and if they had a choice, they would still make the same decisions.

Righteousness, justice, home, and country.

They chose these beliefs that they couldn’t abandon.

But they didn’t know a woman was standing outside listening to them, her red lips curled slightly with a trace of satire. She rose to her feet, smoothed out her cheongsam, and walked away with a swaying motion.

She had expected to see both them make love, therefore she was here to have a look, but she saw nothing, not even a kiss.

Jiang Chao and Qingqiu were ready to act according to their plan; as long as they could break through here, then the information could be sent out. Qin Qingqiu touched her hair, where the information was hidden. Although they had practised a lot, she was still nervous.

Jiang Chao held her hand tightly, indicating that she should not be nervous. They looked at each other again, and lined up in order, waiting for inspection.

It was their turn, and though they had been careful and not messed up, someone realized something was different.

“Wait!” The person came down from another truck, his squinting eyes were as cold as a knife, cutting through their sense of calm.

Jiang Chao and Qingqiu were stunned, he found that her hand was oozing sweat.

Oh no!

They had calculated for all the various situations they could encounter, but never thought that they would meet an acquaintance here. Though their disguises were perfect, they might be recognized by him.

“Are you a married couple?” the officer asked as he walked over and looked at the silent couple. How could I tell? He knew he was right. Although they claimed they were married, there was something missing between them. The best disguise was only that. What was false would never become true with just a disguise.

“Yes, Sir.” Jiang Chao raised his face, which was darker than the others. No one could tell what he normally looked like as his eyes were smaller and his eyebrows thicker than before.

“Oh….” The officer expressed his doubt. “For some reason you seem familiar…”
