Chapter 62 You are the only hero in my heart
Ning Caiwei filled up the gas tank and said with a smile:
"Brother Chu! You should drive."
"All right!"
Xiang Chu obeyed, and said with some concern,
"Caiwei! Can we drive to your uncle's house?"
Ning Caiwei thought about it and nodded, "Of course! Just say you borrowed it, and you can hand it over even if the Japanese spy confesses. But I have to get off the car first, and you can drive over after I get to my uncle's house."
"Yeah! He still needs to mediate our relationship."
Xiang Chu smiled and drove slowly towards Yihe Road.
"They are so close, yet they pretend to be enemies."
Ning Caiwei covered her mouth and smiled, and couldn't help asking,
"By the way! Who else is in your family from Xikou?"
Xiang Chu sighed and said, "My parents passed away when I was very young. My sister and I depended on each other for survival. Three years ago, my sister died at the hands of Japanese police in the International Settlement while trying to protect a female student."
Ning Caiwei asked in surprise: "What's your sister's name? Which female student is she protecting?"
Xiang Chu said sadly: "Xiang Yue! Japanese teacher at Shanghai Hongguang Girls' Middle School."
Xiang Yue was a member of the Shanghai underground party and a native of Xikou. It was she who gave Xiang Chu a cover identity and took him back to her hometown to visit his clansmen.
In fact, Xiang Yue’s biological brother Xiang Chu had died of illness a long time ago, and he did look very similar to Xiang Chu.
“Ah?! I see!”
Ning Caiwei understood that Xiang Chu fought in Shanghai three years ago in order to rescue his sister, and by the way, he also rescued these patriotic female students.
She finally couldn't hold back, tears falling like beads, and she said in a choked voice: "Your sister is my teacher. She was shot to death by the Japanese police for saving me. If you could have arrived at the Hongkou Police Station a little earlier, Sister Yue would not have died. Woo woo!"
"Squeak!"
The Buick stopped in the middle of the road.
Xiang Chu was so shocked that he stepped on the brakes and said in astonishment: "Caiwei! You are also among those patriotic female students?"
He was so bloodthirsty back then that he didn't pay any attention to anyone he rescued.
"Of course! I'm in. Woohoo!"
Ning Caiwei turned around and threw herself into his arms, crying loudly.
Xiang Chu hugged her tightly, his heart extremely shocked. He also understood why Ning Caiwei took the initiative to approach him just a few days after being assigned to the Military Intelligence Department, and why things developed so quickly to where they are today.
There is no doubt about it! Ning Caiwei already knew his identity as the "Phoenix".
Thinking of this, Xiang Chu said calmly and forcefully: "Cai Wei! I really am the 'Phoenix'!"
"I know! I knew it three years ago. You are the only hero in my heart."
Ning Caiwei nodded heavily, looking into his beautiful eyes full of admiration and love, and was about to say her code name.
"Beep! Beep!"
There's a car behind us.
Ning Caiwei straightened up, took out a handkerchief and wiped her tears.
Xiang Chu hurriedly stepped on the accelerator and drove forward.
He had never wanted to deceive Ning Caiwei, and the haze in his heart was immediately swept away.
We still need to find out her identity. Even if she is not a lesbian, we have to develop a relationship with her.
When I passed by a toy store, I stopped and bought a toy water gun.
At around ten o'clock, the Buick drove to the vicinity of No. 9 Yihe Road.
Ning Caiwei smiled and said, "Brother Chu! I'll get off here! I'll take two Yangtze River knife fish, and you take two Yangtze River shad, so that we can show that we are in sync."
"it is good!"
Xiang Chu hurriedly got out of the car, took out two knife fish from the trunk and asked her to carry them.
"Come back in ten minutes!"
Ning Caiwei gave instructions and walked slowly towards the big villa of Ning Changde's family.
Xiang Chu drove away in a hurry and went to No. 49 Yihe Road to see what Dai Zhengtong was doing.
Needless to say, this guy didn't get up until after ten o'clock, or he was fooling around outside and didn't return to the villa at all.
About ten minutes later, Xiang Chu drove to the gate of No. 9 Yihe Road, got out of the car and rang the doorbell.
Not long after, Ning Caiwei came out, opened the door, and said coldly:
"Xiang! You came so late, do you want to eat ready-made food?"
"Lieutenant Ning! Uncle Ling asked me to come here, please be respectful."
Xiang Chu responded very cooperatively, drove the car into the yard and parked it in the corner.
Ning Changde shouted from the second-floor balcony: "Caiwei! Be nicer."
"Virgo! It's okay, I'm used to it."
Xiang Chu shouted, hurriedly got out of the car and opened the trunk.
He took out the box of gold bars, picked up the fish basket, and some food, but he couldn't carry it anymore, so he begged:
"Miss Ning! Please lend a hand."
"If someone sends fish, you send fish too. Are you deliberately going against me?"
Ning Caiwei said angrily, picked up the bird's nest, shark fin, sea cucumber and abalone, and walked into the living room by herself.
Xiang Chu hurriedly followed, shouting as he chased after her: "Please put it in the kitchen!"
Ning Changde and his wife were already waiting at the door. Ning Changde said with a smile:
"Xiao Xiang! It's just a quick meal, why do you bring so many things?"
Madam Ning also said hurriedly: "Yes! They are all delicacies from land and sea. This is too expensive."
"It's not a big deal! It's not a big deal!"
Xiang Chu said hurriedly, took the things directly to the kitchen, and said with a smile,
"Director! Sister-in-law! Lieutenant Ning! Today I want to show off my cooking skills."
Ning Changde was more than happy to do so. He nodded repeatedly and said, "Okay! But just show off your skills. You don't have to do everything. Your sister-in-law and Caiwei also prepared a lot of dishes last night."
Madam Ning exclaimed, "Wow! Such a big Yangtze River shad? How much does it cost?"
Ning Changde laughed and said, "Xiao Xiang! Caiwei brought knife fish and you brought shad, what a tacit understanding. Haha!"
Xiang Chu and Ning Caiwei looked at each other and felt that they had done something counterproductive. Their little tricks would definitely not be hidden from Ning Changde, an "old fox" whose scheming was no less than that of Dainong.
Xiang Chu picked up the box containing the gold bars and said with a smile:
"Virgo! This is a little gift from me."
Ning Changde took it and opened it. Inside were five glittering gold bars. He immediately said happily, "Xiao Xiang! Why are you giving me so many gold bars for such a simple meal? Really."
"uncle!"
Baoer shouted and ran down the stairs, but his foot slipped and he fell.
At the critical moment, Xiang Chu twisted his body, fell to the ground, reached out to catch it, and lifted him up, and the person was still lying flat on the ground.
"My son!"
Madam Ning rushed forward crying and held Baoer in her arms.
"Get up quickly!"
Ning Caiwei stepped forward and pulled Xiang Chu up.
Ning Changde looked at Xiang Chu's incredible actions just now, and it took him a while to come back to his senses.
However, in this situation, he still hurried forward to comfort his crying son.
Ning Caiwei gave Xiang Chu a sharp look and gently pinched his waist.
"Ouch! This fall is quite painful."
Xiang Chu cried out in pain, pretended to rub his waist, picked up the water gun and handed it to Baoer.
"Baoer! Uncle bought this for you."
"Thank you uncle!"
Baoer took the water gun and stopped crying immediately.
"I went to cook!"
Xiang Chu smiled and rubbed his waist as he went into the kitchen.
Ning Caiwei said anxiously: "Don't! You are injured."
Xiang Chu smiled and said, "It's okay! How about you help me?"
