Traveling through the Republic of China to become a special agent, the system is very easy for me

Yuan Ye knew that He Li probably didn't like attending this kind of dinner party, and the only reason she agreed was because she wanted to be with him.

In fact, he didn’t care whether He Li went or not, it was just because he promised Chai Ruhai.

He also knew that Chai Ruhai had good intentions and wanted to create opportunities for them to be together and deepen their relationship.

"Maybe after a few drinks, they might get carried away and the fire would ignite, and they would get it, right?"

This is what Chai Ruhai said to him just now in his office.

What Chai Ruhai didn't know was that the fire had already started last night.

Not only did it burn, but it burned fiercely three times!

That was my first experience in my life. The feeling was so good that I can’t describe it. I believe I will never forget it for the rest of my life!

Yuan Ye thought about it for a while and said:

“As long as you are free, it’s settled, I’ll pick you up tomorrow.

It’s getting late now, and we should leave.”

After saying that, he picked up the calligraphy scroll on his desk. It was the cursive script of Cao Cao's "Short Song" that Iwai Yuichi asked him to write.

He promised to help Hirota Naoki frame it, but he had been busy after leaving Iwai Mansion and had not had time to go to the calligraphy and painting shop to ask someone to frame it.

He Li looked at the roll of rice paper in Yuan Ye's hand and asked:

"What is this? Is it a piece of calligraphy?"

Yuan Ye nodded and said:

"Yes, Mr. Iwai asked me to write this. It's a gift that he will have his secretary, Naoki Hirota, give to Ding Mocun tomorrow night.

Naoki Hirota asked me to help him frame it, but I didn't have the chance to go.

Lili, do you know if there is a calligraphy and painting shop nearby that has good mounting skills? "

He Li thought for a moment and said:

"There's nothing good around here. I know there's a famous calligraphy and painting shop on Waibaidu Road in the International Settlement called Yamozhai. The quality of the four treasures of the study there is also very good. I often go there to buy them.

I’ll take you there now.”

Yuan Ye knew Waibaidu Road, which was not far from the British and American consulates general. There was also a very famous western restaurant nearby called Shixuan Western Restaurant. It was said that the environment was very good and the dishes were also very good.

Foreigners in Shanghai like to eat there, but the price is very expensive and not affordable for ordinary people.

Yuan Ye had only heard of it, he had never been there before and he didn't know how to go there, so of course he couldn't afford it.

But things are different now. For Yuan Ye to go shopping now, it is child's play.

He thought it would be a good opportunity to invite He Li to have dinner there, and to try some foreign food at the same time.

Of course, he had another intention. Foreigners from embassies of various countries often went there. Perhaps he could find a suitable target there, which would make it easier for him to sell the intelligence he had obtained about the Japanese insiders in embassies of various countries for a good price.

Yuan Ye thought of this and said:

"Okay, let's go to Yamozhai first. After we're done, I'll treat you to dinner at the nearby Shixuan Western Restaurant."

"it is good!"

He Li responded readily.

She has been to Shixuan Western Restaurant. Every time she goes to Yamozhai to buy study supplies, she will go to Shixuan Western Restaurant for dinner. She likes the food there.

But the food there is expensive, and one meal would cost one-third of Yuan Ye's monthly salary.

She knew that Yuan Ye came from an ordinary family and that he was a working class person with limited income and had to rent an apartment. Yesterday, he treated her to a high-end Japanese meal at Kawai Izakaya, which cost him a lot of money.

Today I am going to treat her to Western food at Shixuan Western Restaurant again, and we only choose these high-end places.

I’m afraid that after these two meals, he may have to tighten his belt in the future.

She knew that Yuan Ye was not a rich man, but she did not blame Yuan Ye for pretending to be rich, and she even felt a little touched.

This shows that Yuan Ye values ​​her very much and would rather treat himself badly than treat her badly, which makes her feel warm in her heart.

She thought to herself that she should treat him well in the future, and if there was a chance, she would help Yuan Ye become a rich man. She believed that she could do it with her Tokugawa family background.

So she said:

"Shi Kai, you treated me yesterday, so let me treat you today. I am a new intellectual woman who believes in gender equality. You won't give me face, right?"

She said it very seriously, as if if she didn't treat the couple to dinner, she would lose her dignity as an educated woman.

In fact, she was afraid of hurting a man's self-esteem. Of course, she didn't know that Yuan Ye was a fairly wealthy man, otherwise she wouldn't have done this.

She was worried that Yuan Ye would not agree, and looked at him expectantly.

Yuan Ye was stunned. He didn't expect that He Li was not like other women who thought it was natural for men to treat them and accepted it calmly.

She seems to be acting like a new intellectual woman.

Yuan Ye heard He Li's rapid heartbeat in his chest and thought, it's just a dinner party, is there any need for her heart to beat so fast?

He immediately understood what she meant. He Li must be afraid that he would spend too much money and put herself in financial trouble, so she wanted to treat him. After all, in her eyes, he was just a poor man.

Her talk of gender equality as a new intellectual woman was only out of fear of hurting her own self-esteem.

This made Yuan Ye have a new understanding of He Li. He really didn't expect that He Li would be so considerate. This showed that she was not as inhumane as some Japanese people. She must be a kind person in her heart and someone who understands others.

Yuan Ye felt more confident in winning He Li over.

He didn't argue with He Li anymore. It was fine for her to treat him, so he wouldn't be so lavish and make He Li suspicious, wondering how he could be so rich.

It was difficult for him to explain where the money came from. After all, he was just a working-class person and his family background was very ordinary.

Of course, she might also think that she is just trying to be rich, it's hard to say.

Then just go with the flow.

Yuan Ye joked:

"Now is the New Culture Movement, which emphasizes gender equality. I dare not go against the trend and deprive you of your rights.

I'll just let you treat me, and I won't try to be too arrogant."

After saying this, he smiled freely.

Yuan Ye's smile seemed to infect He Li, and she also smiled.

"Just so you know, it'll be like this from now on."

Yuan Ye thought, isn’t this equivalent to the AA system?

That's fine, she can do whatever she wants. It's just a small matter. In fact, it has nothing to do with a man's dignity. He has more important things to care about.

The two chatted and laughed as they walked out of the city government, got on a rickshaw on the street, and headed straight for Yamozhai.

More than half an hour later, they arrived at Waibaidu Road.
