Chapter 61 Deeply rooted love
Xiang Chu left the "Yangtze River Wild Fish" seafood store, but did not leave the market immediately.
He drove around the market and bought some more ingredients, seasonings and dishes.
By the time I finished all this, it was already dawn.
Since the sentries couldn't catch anyone, they withdrew.
He drove back to Ningde Mansion and took everything he needed into the house.
After carefully cleaning up the traces and hiding the sniper rifle.
He boiled some hot water, poured it into the bathtub, and began to take a nice bath.
I was so tired after running around all night that I fell asleep in the bathtub.
I don't know how long it was before I heard the bathroom door being pushed open.
"what--!"
Ning Caiwei screamed.
"Caiwei! What's wrong with you?"
Xiang Chu shouted, quickly put on a bath towel and rushed out of the bathroom.
Ning Caiwei's face turned red like a ripe apple. She turned around quickly and said angrily:
"Hate it! Why are you taking a bath so early in the morning? And there's no sound at all."
Xiang Chu smiled and said, "I went to the market to buy some fish this morning. I was smelling fishy, so I came back to take a bath. I didn't expect to fall asleep. Oh, by the way! Why are you back?"
Ning Caiwei choked up as she said, "I was afraid something might happen to you, so I came back to check on you. Hurry up and put on some clothes so you don't catch a cold. Come to my room later and I'll make you some breakfast."
After saying this, she lowered her head, walked out of the room, and closed the door gently.
Xiang Chu sighed loudly, "Oh! She actually saw me naked. I feel so bad."
"It's your fault!"
Ning Caiwei's low growl was heard outside the door.
He opened the door hastily, but no one was there.
At this time, in the living room of Villa No. 9 Wenhua Road.
Mao Feng, director of the Party Affairs Investigation Department, looked at the corpses on the ground and roared angrily:
"Who on earth is it? He killed so many elites from my Party Affairs Office and kidnapped 'Thrush'!"
Luo Xincheng had a gloomy face and said bitterly:
"Director! According to my analysis, it must have been done by the Red Party's top killer, 'Phoenix'."
Mao Feng said angrily, "Nonsense! It is possible for the Phoenix to kill the White-headed Mantis. How can one person kill 11 people in one second?"
Luo Xincheng had no definite evidence and did not dare to refute or overturn Mao Feng's judgment.
Seeing that he remained silent, Mao Feng asked, "What kind of person is the Red Party underground member 'Huamei'? Is she a man or a woman? Which department is she lurking in?"
Luo Xincheng said helplessly: "Go back to the director! The telegraph operator was killed by the Phoenix before he had time to report."
Mao Feng roared loudly: "What do you do for a living? Why didn't you install a telephone in this villa earlier? You still use plain text telegraphs to send messages. Isn't it obvious that you want to expose yourself? Now that 'Nighthawk' and 'White-headed Sparrow' are dead, what can you use to deal with the Red Party underground party in Nanjing?"
Luo Xincheng said tremblingly: "I failed in my duty and am willing to accept any punishment."
Mao Feng waved his hand and said indifferently:
"You should go to the Shanghai Party Affairs Investigation Station! There will be a more reliable person to replace you. He is an elite party and state agent who specializes in tracking down the 'Phoenix'."
"Yes!"
Luo Xincheng accepted the order reluctantly.
Ningde Mansion, Ning Caiwei's room.
Ning Caiwei put another fried egg on Xiang Chu's plate and said with a smile:
"Here! Eat another egg to replenish your energy. You worked so hard last night."
Xiang Chu deliberately didn't respond, and asked in confusion: "No! You made me full, so why should I go to your uncle's house and eat a lot?"
Ning Caiwei smiled and said, "You go to my uncle's house to cook, don't think about eating a lot. Also, after eating at my uncle's house, we will drive back to our hometown in Hangzhou to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival."
Xiang Chu said seriously: "Caiwei! Have you really thought it through? Do you want to take me to meet your parents?"
Ning Caiwei said thoughtfully: "You will be my driver first. If my parents like you, you can transform yourself into their son-in-law."
Xiang Chu stood up and said anxiously, "Then hurry to your uncle's house. The fish I bought is still in the trunk. Don't let it get stale."
Ning Caiwei nodded and said, "Okay! Go back to your room and change into your suit and military uniform. A poor family is rich on the road, take ten large yellow croakers and twenty small yellow croakers, and we'll set off right away."
Xiang Chu smiled bitterly and said, "Caiwei! I'm not very good at tying a tie, can I wear a Zhongshan suit?"
"No! I'll help you tie your tie."
Ning Caiwei said without allowing any resistance, and after a pause,
"By the way! Take your sniper rifle with you, in case you encounter bandits on the way."
"Are there any bandits?"
Xiang Chu smiled bitterly, and seeing that Ning Caiwei didn't seem to be joking at all, he had to agree.
The two of them were busy for a while, dressed up, locked the doors and windows, and finally walked out of the room.
Ning Caiwei couldn't help but smile when she saw the clean Buick:
"Good! This car also has festive meaning."
Xiang Chu opened the trunk and boasted, "Look at these four fish!"
Ning Caiwei exclaimed: "Wow! Yangtze River knife fish, wild shad, why did you buy such expensive fish?"
Xiang Chu shook his head and said, "4 pieces are only 300 French francs, not expensive at all."
Ning Caiwei smiled bitterly and said, "Stupid! One shad costs 1 French francs."
“Is it really that expensive?”
Xiang Chu was stunned. He didn't expect that he was forced to buy the product.
Ning Caiwei patted his face gently and said with a smile: "Xiang! It seems that you really went to my uncle's house to cook since you got so many ingredients, seasonings, and dishes."
"Not only your uncle, but also our parents."
Xiang Chu said shamelessly, opening the driver's door.
"Lady! You drive."
"Of course!"
Ning Caiwei sat in without hesitation, started the engine, and asked in confusion:
"Hey! I clearly filled up the tank yesterday, how come it's almost empty?"
"Maybe you made a mistake yesterday."
Xiang Chu smiled and pointed to the front and said,
"The gas station is so close, just fill it up."
Ning Caiwei stared into his eyes for 3 seconds, then stepped on the accelerator and drove forward, saying thoughtfully:
"From home to Wenhua Road, then from Wenhua Road to home, then from home to Sheyang Road, from Sheyang Road to the market, and then back home, I guess the gas is almost used up."
"What you said is a bit confusing. I'll take a nap first."
After Xiang Chu mistakenly identified her as "Hua Mei", he became even more confused about her identity.
Of course, she must be lesbian, but even if she isn’t, she has already accepted it.
He still wanted to verify it, so he said with a smile: "Caiwei! What if, what if I were the 'Phoenix', would you kill me?"
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
Ning Caiwei raised her voice an octave higher and said firmly,
"You live and I live, you die and I die!"
Xiang Chu asked with loneliness and moved, and hurriedly apologized:
"I'm sorry! I didn't mean to hurt you."
Ning Caiwei choked up and said, "Do you know? I almost didn't sleep all night last night. I missed you in the first half of the night, and was worried about you in the second half of the night. That's why I rushed over to find you early in the morning."
Xiang Chu nodded and said, "Yes! I know, I am the same."
The two were silent, but they were in tune with each other and deeply in love.
