Chapter 37 Jealousy
Ning Caiwei took Xiang Chu's arm and walked into the "Xikelai" coffee shop affectionately.
When Dai Zhengtong saw this scene, he was so angry that he stopped the car and chased after him.
Zhang Linmao and others immediately jumped out of the car and took out the oil suction pipe and oil barrel.
Several members of the action team worked together to pour the oil out of Dai Zhengtong's car and then poured it into the truck.
Xiang Chu told them to get enough oil back to the office and drive away quickly.
In the coffee shop, Xiang Chu ordered two cups of coffee and a few plates of desserts, and sat at the dining table against the wall with Ning Caiwei, eating and chatting.
Dai Zhengtong rushed in, found them, and was so angry that he was speechless.
Xiang Chu called out affectionately, "Zhengtong! Come over and have some coffee with me."
After saying this, he waved to the waiter, pointed to the table next to him and said:
"Waiter! Bring this gentleman a cup of coffee and two plates of dessert."
"Yes, sir."
The waiter nodded hastily.
Dai Zhengtong wanted to leave, but couldn't bear to leave Ning Caiwei, so he walked angrily to the dining table next to Xiang Chu and the others and sat down with a look of anger on his face.
Xiang Chu did not provoke him, but bought time for Zhang Linmao and others to deal with gasoline and think about doing something else.
Soon, the waiter brought Dai Zhengtong a cup of coffee and two plates of dessert and was about to turn around and leave.
Xiang Chu put a 1-yuan French currency into his tray and said with a smile:
"Waiter! Please bring two pieces of paper and a pencil."
This is equivalent to paying for the coffee and dessert, and then adding some extra money.
"Yes! Thank you sir."
The waiter excitedly took the money and hurriedly turned away.
Ning Caiwei said angrily, "Brother Chu! Why are you asking someone for paper and pen?"
The word "Brother Chu" made Xiang Chu feel very sweet, and he immediately smiled.
Dai Zhengtong was so jealous that he drank the hot coffee and shouted:
"Ah, hot!"
Xiang Chu did not point him out and said bluntly:
"Caiwei! This afternoon, I asked the people around the Japanese spy base what the other two Japanese spies in the 'Evil Wolf' team looked like. I was afraid I would forget them after a long time, so I wanted to draw them right away."
Ning Caiwei smiled and said, "Really? It's a good opportunity to see your painting skills."
Dai Zhengtong was so angry at the two of them for addressing him so affectionately that he said in a cold voice:
"Xiang, stop bragging! You're not a painting major, and your drawings won't look like humans."
Xiang Chu was too lazy to pay attention to him. He forked a candied fruit and put it to Ning Caiwei's mouth:
"Caiwei! The candied fruit here is delicious, sweet but not greasy, you should try it!"
"Ok!"
Ning Caiwei opened her cherry mouth and ate the candied fruit.
Dai Zhengtong was so jealous that his whole body was shaking.
He wished he could pull out his gun and kill Xiang Chu on the spot.
Soon, the waiter brought a pen and paper.
Xiang Chu glanced out the window. The truck hadn't left yet. He wondered why Ning Qiang and his gang were so slow.
Ning Caiwei moved the dessert away, spread out the paper, handed the pen to Xiang Chu, and said with a smile:
“Draw quickly!”
"it is good!"
Xiang Chu took the pencil, looked at the refill, and shook his head.
"It would be fine if it was a paraffin sketch pencil, so let's deal with it for now."
Dai Zhengtong taunted, "I bet you can't even draw."
Xiang Chu smiled and said, "If I can draw, will you pay for your own coffee?"
The waiter was immediately delighted when he heard this. He thought that the money for Mr. Dai's coffee was equivalent to a tip for himself. He really made a lot of money today.
"Okay! It's a deal."
Dai Zhengtong agreed readily.
"You're doomed, but it's only a few bucks."
Xiang Chu smiled and began to draw a portrait of Takeo Ishikawa based on the dream-stealing image.
He waved his pencil and drew quickly on the white paper.
His movements were very skillful and he was obviously an expert in sketching.
Xiang Chu said as he painted: "Ingres said that in addition to color, sketching is everything! This is a realistic sketch, striving for a shocking effect and intuitive expression..."
His concentration attracted many guests in the coffee shop to watch.
Of course, there were also many men who came to admire Ning Caiwei.
Soon, a very realistic portrait appeared on the paper.
Xiang Chu was lost in thought, just like Takeo Ishikawa himself.
Everyone came forward to watch and exclaimed:
"Wow! It's almost as good as photography."
“This level is really too high.”
Dai Zhengtong also stretched his head to take a look without saying a word.
Needless to say, he was jealous to the point of vomiting vinegar.
Xiang Chu handed the painting to Ning Caiwei and said with a smile:
"Caiwei! Please put it away for me first. I still need to draw the second one."
"I didn't expect your painting skills to be so high. I'm impressed!"
Ning Caiwei admired it and quickly folded it and put it into her purse.
Next, Xiang Chu drew a sketch of Imai Matsukai.
Soon, the painting was completed, which caused another round of exclamations.
"Caiwei! Please keep it."
Xiang Chu handed the drawing paper to Ning Caiwei.
“What a master painter.”
Ning Caiwei was full of admiration. Xiang Chu had given her so many surprises. Apart from saving her life, she could not suppress her love for him.
She glanced out the window, the truck was gone, and said with a smile:
"Brother Chu! Let's go home."
"Okay! Go home."
Xiang Chu stood up, put a coat on Ning Caiwei, and walked out hand in hand.
Dai Zhengtong was so angry that he lay on the table, beating his chest and stamping his feet.
The waiter looked at Xiang Chu and hesitated to speak, but finally mustered up the courage to say:
"Sir! Pay for Mr.'s coffee."
Xiang Chu pointed at Dai Zhengtong and said with a smile:
"Mr. Dai lost the bet, you can ask him for it."
"Okay! Thank you sir."
The waiter nodded heavily, feeling grateful to Xiang Chu.
She felt that Dai Zhengtong, dressed in a suit and tie, did not look like a poor man.
Dai Zhengtong lay there for a while, and suddenly saw Xiang Chu and the other two leaving, so he quickly stood up.
The waiter hurried forward and said anxiously:
"Sir! Please pay 5 yuan."
“What do I pay?”
Dai Zhengtong pushed the waiter away and walked towards the door.
"Sir! You can't default on your debt. You can't leave."
The waiter shouted loudly, alarming the boss and the waiter.
Everyone stepped forward and blocked Dai Zhengtong at the door.
The owner of the coffee shop took a look at Dai Zhengtong's menu and said with a smile: "Sir! Our 'Xi Ke Lai' coffee shop is a small business, which is 5 French francs. Please pay quickly."
Although Dai Zhengtong is rich, he is very stingy and it is common for him to refuse to pay for meals in restaurants.
Moreover, he was so angry with Xiang Chu today that he was extremely unhappy and didn't want to pay at all.
He pointed at the boss and shouted, "Why don't you ask that couple for money? Get out of here!"
A man in his early 30s in a suit who was a regular customer said, "Sir, you made a bet with your colleague in public, saying that if he could paint, you would pay the bill. We heard it all."
Dai Zhengtong pointed at the man in the suit and roared, "It's none of your mother's business!"
The man in the suit suddenly became furious and pointed at Dai Zhengtong and yelled, "Watch your mouth."
"Bang!"
Dai Zhengtong took out his service pistol and fired a shot upwards.
