Shocking! The young educated youth had just arrived and was already clashing with spies.

Chapter 833 Actually, he also regretted it quite a bit.

As the footsteps drew closer, their hearts pounded with anxiety. Only when they could vaguely see that the other person was dressed normally, unlike the mysterious group from before, did their tension ease slightly.

The newcomer was dressed mostly in black and gray, with an open and undisguised face. His demeanor was serious and quiet, and he was clearly not a bad person.

In particular, the person at the head of the group was wearing a standard Zhongshan suit, which is the common attire of many cadres in China, and naturally carries an air of righteousness.

As they got closer, the two realized that one of the people was someone they knew all too well—it was Pei Zhengyang, who had traveled with them all the way to Guangzhou and stayed at the same guesthouse.

The other party recognized them and was staring intently at them.

With their hearts finally at ease, Yang Zheng and Ge Shaoting put away their weapons and waited for the other side to approach.

The leader was initially wary of the two of them, but when he saw that they not only stopped being wary but had even put away their weapons, he couldn't help but feel uneasy.

He raised his hand, his command clear, and the group behind him stopped in their tracks. Only then did he ask in a cold voice, "Who are you people?"

Wandering around at night instead of sleeping raises suspicions.

Pei Zhengyang quickly leaned closer and whispered, "Boss Gu, they're not bad people, they're with Comrade Chu."

Old Gu frowned slightly. This guy surnamed Chu had been appearing quite frequently these past two days. He looked at Dai Anchen, only to have Dai roll his eyes at him. "Don't look at me. I've only ever met Comrade Chu. He doesn't recognize these two people and knows nothing about them!"

This made Old Gu even more suspicious.

Seeing that they didn't seem to be in a hurry to chase after the person, Yang Zheng kindly reminded them, "Aren't you chasing someone? They went in that direction. If you hurry up, you might still be able to catch up."

Upon hearing this, Old Gu's furrowed brows did not relax. He turned to the person next to him and instructed, "Dai Anchen, take a few skilled men and chase after them to see if you can still find any trace of them. Otherwise, retreat. No one is allowed to act alone. Your own safety is the top priority."

"Yes!" Dai Anchen accepted the order and quickly selected a few people to run in the direction Yang Zheng pointed.

Yang Zheng knew that Lao Gu had stayed behind because he didn't fully trust him and Ge Shaoting, but there was nothing to say about it; it was normal for strangers not to trust each other.

He then performed a good deed that day, saying, "We're going back now, please make yourselves at home."

As he said that, he was about to leave.

Ge Shaoting, standing beside him, looked up at the sky speechlessly. Judging from the old man's expression, there was no way he could leave now. Sure enough, Old Gu raised his hand to block their way and demanded in a matter-of-fact manner, "No, you can't leave yet. We'll let you go after we verify your identities."

As soon as he finished speaking, two or three more people stepped forward and completely blocked the road.

Pei Zhengyang was anxious, and his usually expressionless face twitched visibly. "Boss Gu... Comrade Chu seems to be from the Central Special Branch. I've traveled with them and witnessed many things along the way, so I can't be wrong."

The problem is that this Comrade Chu has a terrible temper, and if she finds out that Gu Tou is making things difficult for her companion...

Ge Shaoting is not like Yang Zheng. He has always been quite lawless. Although he has toned down a lot since coming to the mainland, it doesn't mean he can be bullied at will.

He immediately retorted without hesitation, "No, are you deaf or missing a screw? We just happened to run into the person you're chasing and kindly told them where they were. We didn't steal or rob anyone. If you're not going to thank us, fine, but what's with blocking us from leaving?"

After saying that, she turned to Yang Zhengming, ostensibly to complain but actually to criticize him indirectly, "You too, you're just showing off your kindness. What does other people's business have to do with us? Why do you have to be so nosy? Haven't you heard that good deeds don't always go unrewarded? Just seeing you makes me angry!"

Yang Zheng silently rubbed his forehead; he was actually quite regretful.
