Episode 14: Su Nan’s identity remains a mystery and Lin Xi goes undercover

Lin Xi accidentally heard someone mention the conversation between Zhou Yingqun and Miss Su. He suspected that the Miss Su they were talking about was Su Nan, so he went up to ask for confirmation. After discovering that this Miss Su was really called Su Nan, Lin Xi broke into the house and just in time saw her lift up her waistcoat, revealing the burn scar on her back, in order to prove to Zhou Yingqun that she didn’t have to do this to hide her identity.

Seeing old friends meet again, with mixed emotions in their eyes, Su Nan wanted to leave, but Lin Xi held her hand, and he invited her out to dance. Li Yunfei asked Zhou Yingqun what to do next, and Zhou Yingqun said it was business. Li Yunfei was one head and two older, now that Lin Xi knew that he was hiding such a big matter, he had to peel himself off.

While Su Nan and Lin Xi were dancing, Li Yunfei and Zhou Yingqun also invited Wenhua to dance, giving Lin Xi and Su Nan time to talk. For the past, Su Nan chose to forget, and for the present, she chose not to disturb each other, which is why she knew Lin Xi was in Jinzhou, but she didn’t come to him. Wenhua had an intuition that the woman dancing with Lin Xi was Su Nan. Li Ruhe and An Chengren naturally saw Lin Xi’s appearance.

He believed that this relationship should be made good use of. Lin Xi chased out, only to see Su Nan leaving with a man. The man’s name is He Tianming, and he is a doctor in a private clinic. Lin Xi didn’t know what the relationship between the two was, but he had to protect her no matter what.

When Lin Xi returned to the residence, Wenhua didn’t ask a word, she just hoped that Lin Xi would not forget what he was here for. The next day, Lin Xi went to the interrogation room where Ling Hongjun was being held. While interrogating, he kept looking for bugs and the like in the interrogation room. After confirming no, Lin Xi told Ling Hongjun the truth. Back in Shanghai, Lin Xi had secretly cooperated with Ling Hongjun, walking on the same path with him.

Lin Xi told Ling Hongjun that Su Nan was still alive, and Ling Hongjun knew as much about Su Nan as Lin Xi. He asked a key question, if the current Su Nan abandoned his original belief, how would Lin Xi make a choice.

Knowing that Lin Xi had entered the general interrogation room, Zhou Yingqun immediately went over. Ling Hongjun made a long story short. The organization decided to wake up Lin Xi. Ling Hongjun served as Lin Xi’s traffic officer and formed a working group with his comrades to assist the comrade codenamed Hua Die in obtaining Jinzhou’s urban defense deployment. Now that Ling Hongjun has been arrested and his actions are hindered, this task can only be completed by Lin Xi himself.

Priority must be given to getting in touch with the organization, otherwise Lin Xi would not be able to contact Comrade Huadie based on the principle of single-line communication. Two days later, at ten o’clock in the morning, at the Longchang Commercial Firm near the train station, the people who meet Lin Xi will wear a dark red tie, a black top hat, and carry a black suitcase. Ling Hongjun told Lin Xi the secret code for the connection. If the mission failed, Lin Xi would need to hibernate again. Lin Xi’s safety was the top priority in everything. As for Ling Hongjun himself, he was already prepared to die.

At the end of the conversation, Lin Xi and Ling Hongjun played tricks to hide the truth, he burned Ling Hongjun with his hands, but was stopped by Zhou Yingqun who broke in. Lin Xi told Zhou Yingqun that he would not let Su Nan die in front of him again.

Li Yunfei took Lin Xi to see Li Ruhe and An Chengren. Lin Xi reached a cooperation with them. Li Ruhe needed to show him the ledger of the General Affairs Office, but Lin Xi needed to do nothing. Afterwards, Li Yunfei said, Don’t push Lin Xi too hard, it’s just a show anyway. Wenhua met Su Nan while shopping, and she bought an identical dark red tie for Lin Xi according to Su Nan’s preference, but Lin Xi didn’t appreciate it. In his opinion, Wenhua did this to use Su Nan to remind him not to forget the mission.

Yang Sen told Zhou Yingqun the important information, saying that Big Yu would appear near the Longchang Commercial Bank at the train station at ten o’clock the day after tomorrow, and Li Yunfei didn’t know about it. Wenhua reported the situation in Jinzhou to Xing Lixian, and mentioned Su Nan, hoping that Xing Lixian could ask Nanjing to verify Su Nan’s resume.
