Chapter 12 Yu Xiaowan
Liu Zhengxiong hurriedly stopped them and said with a wry smile, "You two! The director asked each officer to donate money for the colleagues who died in the Operations Department. Each person should donate more than 10 yuan, the more the better."
"It should!"
Ning Caiwei took out a hundred-yuan French currency and handed it to Liu Zhengxiong.
Liu Zhengxiong took the banknote and praised:
"Ms. Ning's first move was very generous. I admire you! I admire you!"
After saying this, he quickly locked his eyes on Xiang Chu.
Xiang Chu said somewhat embarrassedly:
"I don't have any money, can you deduct it from my next month's salary?"
Liu Zhengxiong rolled his eyes at him and scolded:
"You kid! Don't cry poor in front of me. If you are that capable, go catch a Japanese spy. The director said that if you catch a Japanese spy, you will be rewarded with two small yellow croakers, and if you catch two, you will be promoted one rank."
Xiang Chu said with a smile: "Even your action team can't catch him, how can I catch him?"
Ning Caiwei was busy going out to do things, and said anxiously: "Captain Liu! My one hundred French francs can be regarded as a donation of fifty each from Xiang Chu and me."
"Ah?! Okay."
Liu Zhengxiong nodded helplessly, but said enviously,
"Silly boy! You are so lucky in love."
"You Fatty Liu, you're asking for a fight!"
Ning Caiwei roared at Liu Zhengxiong.
"Just kidding."
Liu Zhengxiong fled in panic.
Ning Caiwei walked out of the door angrily, Xiang Chu hurriedly caught up with her and said gratefully:
"Thank you, Senior Sister Ning! I will definitely return the money to you later."
"What are you returning? Bring that black car over here."
Ning Caiwei handed him the car keys and pointed to the Studebaker car in the distance.
"Is this the car that Director Ning is riding in?"
Xiang Chu was stunned and ran over like flying.
Ning Caiwei's eyes lit up. She didn't expect that he could be so fast with such a big backpack.
This figure looks familiar, except that he is a little taller than a few years ago.
While she was distracted, Xiang Chu had already driven the car in front of her.
She knew that there were countless eyes in this office building staring at her and Xiang Chu.
You can figure out with your toes how many young talents want to have an intimate relationship with her.
In order to avoid suspicion, she opened the back door without thinking and got in.
Xiang Chu drove very skillfully, as smoothly as flowing water, and Ning Caiwei felt ashamed of herself.
She couldn't help but ask, "Xiang Chu! Didn't you learn your driving skills in the military academy?"
Xiang Chu was shocked. He couldn't say that he learned it in the Soviet Union.
He quickly downshifted, slowed down, and said with a smile:
"Not entirely! I drove for others before I went to military school."
"Is it? lol!"
Ning Caiwei smiled slightly, but didn't ask any more questions.
Xiang Chu was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat, regretting that he didn't dare to show off his driving skills.
It seems that what Master said about women being tigers is also true.
The car passed through the bustling streets with honking trams and hawking vendors, and drove into Qinhuai Road planted with tall osmanthus trees.
On one side of Qinhuai Road is the winding Qinhuai River, and on the other side are European-style buildings. There are many cafes and Western restaurants on the street, making it lively and elegant.
In order to find the "Thyme" coffee shop, Xiang Chu slowed down, looked around, and said with a smile:
"This street is really nice, with an elegant environment, the fragrance of osmanthus, and Avon."
Speaking of Avon Appreciation, he glanced at Ning Caiwei in the rearview mirror unnaturally, not knowing that Ning Caiwei was also looking at him, and quickly retracted her restless gaze.
Neither of them said anything, but their eyes were looking towards the "Thyme" coffee shop in the middle of No. 22 Qinhuai Road.
The store's signboard is elegant and eye-catching, and the doors and windows are warmly decorated, which is quite romantic.
Xiang Chu couldn't help but say, "This cafe is good."
Ning Caiwei said thoughtfully: "Really? Then when you get your salary, will you invite me here for coffee?"
"A word is settled!"
Xiang Chu smiled brightly.
However, he was quite nervous in his heart. Ning Caiwei would approach him so actively. Could there be some other purpose?
He would never believe the play where a rich girl falls in love with a poor boy.
Soon, the car arrived at the Archives Bureau.
Xiang Chu got off the car, put on his backpack, and said gratefully:
"Thank you, Senior Sister Ning. If I had come here by myself, it would probably be dark."
Ning Caiwei's beautiful eyes swept across his eyes, and she said meaningfully: "You are always so polite, which makes some people think that you are not a spy of the White Party."
"can you?"
Xiang Chu stared into her beautiful eyes without commenting.
"Will do!"
Ning Caiwei smiled calmly, sat in the driver's seat, waved her jade hand and said,
"I'm leaving first. You can go back by yourself after you finish your work. See you tomorrow!"
"See you tomorrow!"
Xiang Chu watched her drive away before walking into the Archives Bureau.
Because there were too many documents submitted, it didn't come out until six o'clock.
It was the time when people were getting off work and there were many pedestrians on the street.
He walked leisurely, wanting to take a good look at this bustling city.
"Oppose civil war! Unite to resist Japan!"
A group of young students came towards us, shouting slogans and holding banners.
Leading the group was a young girl wearing a snow-white dress with long hair draped over her shoulders. She had a bookish air, immature but strong, like a pure and flawless snow lotus that was ready to bloom in the snow.
Soon, a chaotic and rapid sound of footsteps was heard from the street in the distance.
A group of military police in light yellow uniforms ran towards here, blowing whistles.
The students hurriedly threw away their banners and fled in all directions. The scene was extremely chaotic.
Xiang Chu had been staring at the female student when he suddenly saw a man in a baseball cap on the street pull out a pistol and aim at the female student.
In a hurry, he rushed forward, hugged the female student and spun her around several times. The female student's long hair and long skirt flew up, which was very beautiful.
"Bang!"
The bullet hit the telephone pole, sending sparks flying.
"To fight foreign aggression, we must first stabilize the internal situation! Long live the Chairman!"
The man missed his attack, shouted slogans, then turned and ran away.
"Come on!"
Xiang Chu supported the female student and turned to chase after the people shouting slogans.
"Thank you!"
The female student screamed and stared at Xiang Chu's back in a daze.
She was extremely grateful that it was this young man who pulled her back from the brink of death.
"Yu Xiaowan! This way."
A female classmate ran over and pulled her into the alley next to her.
