Chapter 189 Dressed up beautifully
It was absolutely impossible for Lu Congyue to participate in the operation.
In Meng Shuisheng's words, with him involved, who would still trust Zhuang Qingxiang?
Those people aren't stupid.
"Then how can you guarantee her safety?" Lu Congyue pressed on, displeased.
"We can only promise to guarantee Comrade Zhuang Qingxiang's safety as much as possible," Meng Shuisheng said truthfully.
Lu Congyue's eyes widened instantly, and Zhuang Qingxiang quickly stepped between the two, saying softly, "I understand, Officer Meng, I'll be careful. Besides, it's not certain that anyone will actually come looking for me."
They live all over the country, and communication is inconvenient. How could it be such a coincidence that someone would come from out of town to look for her?
Meng Shuisheng gave a dry laugh: "Well... Comrade Zhuang, according to our latest interrogation results, the people coming to see you should arrive in the next couple of days."
Zhuang Qingxiang: "..."
"You need to go back to live with Director Lu. The people who come should try to contact you. Also, we have arranged a female comrade with good skills for you. You can find an opportunity to introduce her to the people who come to find you, and say that she is your downline. This way, you will be safer," Meng Shuisheng added.
The woman Meng Shuisheng introduced was named Ma Ting. She was in her thirties, dressed very fashionably, with permed hair, wearing a wool coat, leather shoes, and floral spray on her body. She was completely different from the women around her nowadays, dressed in a very bourgeois style. I guess if the women's director or the street director saw her, they would pull her aside and give her a lecture.
Zhuang Qingxiang was dumbfounded. Such a beautiful woman, and she's quite skilled?
Lu Congyue also distrusted Ma Ting.
Ma Ting guessed what they were thinking and smiled, "It's for work, don't mind it."
She looked Zhuang Qingxiang up and down and shook her head: "Comrade Zhuang Qingxiang, your current attire doesn't look like that of someone who is materialistic and snobbish. It's too plain. You should at least dress like me so that people can believe you're dissatisfied with your current simple life and longing for the decadent world across the sea."
"I..." Zhuang Qingxiang looked down at herself. All her clothes were bought for her by Lu Congyue. They were new, and she thought they were fine.
Ma Ting enthusiastically grabbed her hand: "Trust me, I'll help you get dressed up, I guarantee you'll look beautiful."
Lu Congyue frowned deeply: "Is this really necessary?"
"Absolutely necessary," Ma Ting said firmly. "Showing a suitable amount of greed will put people at ease."
Meng Shuisheng supported Ma Ting's statement, which was also the conclusion they reached after talking with the three enemy agents they had captured. Among the three, the man nicknamed "Uncle Zhang" had a "lofty ideal" in his heart, and he went undercover and developed his own network for the sake of his ideal. Li Shengnan and another accomplice, on the other hand, were simply brainwashed and joined the group because they dreamed of living a life of luxury and debauchery one day.
Li Shengnan, in particular, appears simple and capable, but in reality, "Uncle Zhang" gave her more than 300 yuan in money and goods, and they even found some gold jewelry in her luggage.
"It's not just about your appearance, but also your words and actions, what to say and how to say it when you talk to those people... You need to learn all of these from me," Ma Ting added.
"Okay, I'll do whatever you say." Zhuang Qingxiang's eyes brightened slightly, showing a bit of admiration for Ma Ting.
Ma Ting smiled and arranged for Lu Congyue and the others to take the children back to the factory first, while Zhuang Qingxiang stayed with her. She would personally take Zhuang Qingxiang home after she finished her work.
That's settled then; Lu Congyue's opinion is irrelevant.
Soon, Lu Congyue, along with his three children, Shi Peiran, and Sun Yongxian, were packed up and sent back to the factory.
Zhuang Qingxiang returned in the evening, and Ma Ting and Meng Shuisheng escorted her to the gate.
After spending an afternoon together, the two had become quite familiar with each other. Ma Ting patted her shoulder and said, "Qingxiang, lift your head and be more confident! Before those people contact you, just walk around the factory dressed like this, let everyone see you and talk about you, so that when those people come looking for you, they'll hear about you."
She winked at Zhuang Qingxiang: "I'll be waiting for your good news these next couple of days."
Zhuang Qingxiang nodded nervously: "Okay, I will try my best."
She was actually not used to her current clothes and style, but she still tried her best to stand tall and look as beautiful and elegant as Ma Ting.
"So beautiful!" Ma Ting exclaimed. "I bet when you go back, nobody will recognize you."
Zhuang Qingxiang gave a dry laugh.
Not to mention anyone else, she didn't even recognize herself anymore.
Long, curly hair, a red plaid shirt, a fitted wool coat, and small leather shoes...
Ma Ting also gave her a lipstick. The lipstick made her lips look bright red, which made her skin look even whiter and gave her a better complexion.
She didn't even dare to look at herself in the mirror; city people weren't this fashionable.
"Alright, hurry up and go in." Meng Shuisheng looked around warily. "We'll wait for your news. You know where to find Ma Ting."
Zhuang Qingxiang responded and then lowered her head to walk into the factory. After taking a few steps, she remembered Ma Ting's instructions and raised her head and straightened her back.
"Who's there? Stop!" The security guards shouted alertly when they saw someone approaching.
Just then, Niu Jianzhong was there. Hearing the commotion, he came out and saw an incredibly beautiful woman about to enter the factory. He quickly stepped forward to stop her.
"Who are you? What are you doing here?"
Zhuang Qingxiang smiled slightly: "Section Chief Niu, it's me. Don't you recognize me?"
"You know me?" Niu Jianzhong became even more wary, took a step forward, and looked me over carefully before exclaiming in surprise, "Zhuang Qingxiang?"
"It's me," Zhuang Qingxiang replied with a smile. "Can I come in now?"
"Yes, yes... but..." Niu Jianzhong didn't know what to say.
Everyone already knew that Zhuang Qingxiang was beautiful, but now she has suddenly become so stunning that she is almost unrecognizable.
Her entire outfit makes her look nothing like a rural widow; she looks like she stepped out of a magazine.
"What happened to you?" Niu Jianzhong frowned.
Zhuang Qingxiang shrugged: "What's wrong with me? Don't I look good?"
Niu Jianzhong couldn't lie and say it didn't look good, but this outfit just didn't look like that of a proper woman, okay?
Niu Jianzhong held back, not saying a word, but with a dark face, he thought he would have to tell Director Lu later that the nanny's attire was really outrageous.
"Section Chief Niu, I'll head home now." Zhuang Qingxiang smiled, waved, and took her leave.
As soon as she left, the other members of the security department surrounded Niu Jianzhong, chattering amongst themselves.
"Section Chief, is that Factory Director Lu's nanny? It's like she appeared out of nowhere!"
"Exactly, she looks just like a capitalist's daughter."
"How do you know? Have you met the capitalist's daughter?"
"Of course I've seen her, but capitalist heiresses are all out collecting cow dung these days, right? Nobody dares to dress like that. What's she up to?"
"What are you doing? Of course, you're seducing men," someone chuckled slyly.
Niu Jianzhong whirled around: "Shut up! Don't spout nonsense and throw dirty water on female comrades!"
