The tone was full of grievance, yet comfortable to breathe.

Shen Jinzhen's hands, which were busy packing things, suddenly trembled, and her movements also stopped. She slowly raised her head with doubt and shock, and looked straight ahead.

"Ruo, Ruo comes?"

Shen Jinzhen shouted in disbelief, ran up and hugged him.

Although they were apart for only a little over a month, she still missed him very much.

Seeing Jinzhen running over, Wei Ruolai also hugged her tightly.

After Jinzhen left, Wei Ruolai sent his father and the children away as well, and returned home alone, feeling a little empty.

Shen Tunan was in the same state after seeing Xiao Yuer off and his wife leaving the school.

I am quite busy at work every day, but it is very quiet when I get home.

Wei Ruolai thought about it for a long time and finally decided to apply to the organization and join where Jinzhen was.

He didn't write to Jinzhen in advance, but came directly to give her a surprise.

"Jinzhen, I missed you so much. I thought you would come to see me just now, but I didn't expect that other comrades came to welcome me, but you were the only one who wasn't curious at all."

Wei Ruolai kept looking for Jinzhen amid the welcome of other comrades, but he couldn't find him. After asking, he found out that Jinzhen was there.

Since she didn't come, I had to go look for her myself.

Hearing Ruolai's accusation, Shen Jinzhen hurriedly explained, "I thought they were celebrating because they won the war. In the past, everyone celebrated after winning every war."

She had not been there long, and at first she thought something had happened. It was Commander Wu who told her about it.

Later, Shen Jinzhen got used to this way of celebration and no longer joined in the fun. He thought it was more important to do his own thing well.

"Okay, after today, I would like to ask Comrade Shen Jinzhen for more guidance," Wei Ruolai stood up with a smile in his eyes and saluted Shen Jinzhen.

This made Shen Jinzhen blush and he pulled his hand away, "Okay, tell me, why are you here?"

With Ruolai's ability, there would be greater room for development if he followed the Red Army in the revolutionary base areas or worked at the Soviet Bank. It would be unsafe here.

“This time I am not the only one here, there are also several other comrades here, all of whom are here to promote the new currency to the nearby villages.”

When Wei Ruolai came here, he also considered what he could do. When he heard that there was going to be development in this area, he asked if he could come and help, and was approved.

In this way, even if he and Jin Zhen are not in the same department, they can still meet after work in the evening.

"Okay, let me go first. My clothes are soaked and my hands are dirty. Don't dirty your uniform."

Shen Jinzhen hadn't finished his work yet and was sweating under the hot summer sun, so he immediately asked Ruolai to let go.

Unexpectedly, Ruo Lai did not let go, but hugged for a while before stopping, "It's been so long since we last met, and you want to let go after just a while."

He could never hug Jinzhen enough.

"Okay, it's time to get busy with work. We'll have plenty of time to be together after we're done."

Shen Jinzhen smiled and squatted down again, continuing to work on the unfinished task, but she was feeling a lot. With Ruolai by her side, she no longer felt lonely.

On December 1941, 12, the Pacific War broke out and the Shanghai Concession was occupied by the Japanese army. This former shelter now fell into the control of the enemy.

Shen Jinzhen panicked when she got the news. Since the concession was occupied, she had been unable to contact her brother.
