Chapter 64 Belonging to the Heart
Dai Zhengtong was beaten up by the boss and his waiters of "Xikelai".
After I revived with full health today, the first thing I did was to find Ning Caiwei.
Although Ning Changde looked down on him, he didn't want to offend Dainong.
He smiled and said, "Zhengtong! What gifts did you bring with you?"
"It's just a small token of my appreciation! It's not a sign of respect."
Dai Zhengtong smiled and asked hurriedly,
"Deputy Director Ning! Is Caiwei at your house?"
Before Ning Changde could answer, Lin Haifeng hurriedly shouted:
"Not here!"
Dai Zhengyi looked at him and sneered:
"Who are you? You look so much worse than me."
He thought that he was not as handsome as Xiang Chushuai, but he was still much stronger than this man.
When Lin Haifeng heard this, he angrily said, "Who are you? You are so rude."
Ning Changde was afraid that the two would fight in his own home, so he hurriedly said:
"My two dear nephews! Since you are all Ning's guests, please be friendly."
"Okay! Let's be friendly."
Dai Zhengtong nodded, not wanting to order any more Lin Haifeng, and walked towards the living room.
Ning Changde hurriedly followed and introduced to his wife:
"This is Dai Zhengtong, the nephew of Dai Nong."
Madam Ning smiled and said, "Oh! It turns out to be Master Dai."
Dai Zhengtong smiled and said, "Hello, Madam! Where is Caiwei?"
Ning Caiwei walked out of the kitchen carrying a plate of braised shad. She was shocked to see Dai Zhengtong, wondering why her uncle's house was holding a Hongmen Banquet today.
Dai Zhengtong said excitedly: "Caiwei! I'll help you serve the dishes."
Ning Caiwei shook her head and said, "No need! It's better not to sell this Yangtze River shad."
Dai Zhengtong was surprised and asked, "Such a big Yangtze River shad? It's too expensive. Who bought it?"
"Xiang Chu!"
Ning Caiwei said lightly.
"Is this guy here too?"
Dai Zhengtong said angrily and was about to roll up his sleeves.
Lin Haifeng sneered, "Boy! You want to cook? Go ahead!"
Xiang Chu heard it, walked to the kitchen door, and said with a smile:
"Zhengtong is here? He must be fully recovered now."
Dai Zhengtong suppressed his anger and said coldly:
"You kid! Why are you here at Deputy Director Ning's house?"
Ning Changde said with a smile: "Everyone here is a guest, let's forgive our grudges with a smile."
"Yes! Hurry up and serve the dishes. All the small items are ready."
Mrs. Ning said with a smile as she and Ning Caiwei continued to serve the dishes.
In order to avoid any unpleasantness between the two young masters, Ning Changde introduced them, "Haifeng! This is our director's nephew, Dainong, and he is now a second lieutenant officer in the Transportation Department of the Ministry of Military Affairs. Zhengtong! This is Lin Haifeng, the son of Chief Lin of the Ministry of Military Affairs, and he is now a captain staff officer in the First Operations Department of the Military Affairs Department."
"Oh! Nice to meet you! Nice to meet you!"
Dai Zhengtong and Lin Haifeng shook hands and made peace.
Soon, the table was filled with eighteen dishes, all of which were delicious.
Everyone took their seats, and Ning Caiwei sat between Ning Changde and Madam Ning, leaving no one else to chance.
Madam Ning praised: "Xiao Xiang! To be honest, I really can't cook these dishes."
Xiang Chu smiled and said, "Madam can definitely do it, but she just gave me the chance to show it."
Ning Changde smiled and said, "You are really good at talking! Come, I wish you young people great success."
Dai Zhengtong echoed loudly: "Yes! I hope we won't be like those guys in the Party Affairs Office last night, who encountered the 'Phoenix' and couldn't even celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival."
This really dampened the mood and everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.
Ning Changde smiled and said, "Our Military Intelligence Department is not the Party Affairs Department, so we don't have to worry about the Phoenix. I heard that Director Mao of the Party Affairs Department demoted his incompetent action team leader to the Shanghai Party Affairs Station, and transferred an elite ace agent of the Party and the country who specializes in dealing with the Phoenix to be the action team leader."
Ning Caiwei was startled, and the wine glass that was brought to her mouth shook.
To attract everyone's attention, Xiang Chu stood up and said with a smile:
"Director! Madam! Let me introduce these dishes to you. This is braised Yangtze River shad, this is steamed Yangtze River knife fish, this is broccoli and sea cucumber with abalone sauce, and this is Peking duck..."
He introduced eighteen dishes, which made everyone at the table drool.
"Eat quickly! Eat quickly!"
The little boy spoke without restraint and shouted while clapping his little hands on the table.
Everyone at the table ate with relish and started toasting their glasses.
Ning Changde had said before that he wanted Xiang Chu and Ning Caiwei to reconcile, and said with a smile:
"Caiwei! Xiang Chu saved Baoer twice, and today he prepared a large table of dishes. Come on, on behalf of your uncle and aunt, toast him a glass of wine."
Bao Er raised his glass and shouted, "I want to toast Uncle Xiang, too."
Xiang Chu smiled and said, "Bao'er! Call me brother from now on."
Baoer smiled and said, "Okay! Brother Xiang, I know you want to marry my sister."
"How can my brother be so lucky? Come on! Clink glasses."
Xiang Chu smiled and clinked glasses with him and Ning Caiwei.
Ning Changde and Madam Ning smiled at each other, feeling relieved. It seemed that Xiang Chu was aware of his own strength.
Dai Zhengtong was very happy to hear Xiang Chu say this. He felt that his only rival in love was Lin Haifeng. He raised his glass and said:
"Mr. Lin! I heard that there is a Japanese spy inside your department. Do you know who it is?"
Lin Haifeng had the same idea as him, and without changing his expression, he raised his glass and said with a smile:
"Young Master Dai! I also heard that there is a Japanese spy inside your agency. Do you know who it is?"
Xiang Chu didn't expect that Dai Zhengtong, who was not in the department, actually knew about the traitor. And Lin Haifeng, as a traitor, not only did he not change his expression, but he also knew that there was a traitor in the Transportation Department, which was really strange.
Ning Changde and Ning Caiwei, like him, also felt that something was wrong with the conversation between the two.
Ning Changde wanted to make meritorious contributions in his dreams. He rolled his eyes and said with a smile, "Haifeng! If you can catch the traitor lurking in the Transportation Department, with your father's power, I will definitely be able to promote you to a higher rank."
Lin Haifeng looked a little unnatural, and shook his head, "How could I have that ability? Haha!"
Ning Caiwei heard him so calm and said bluntly:
"Dai Zhengtong! How do you know there is a Japanese spy in the First Operations Office of the Military Affairs Department?"
Dai Zhengyi was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "I heard it by accident while having dinner at my uncle's house."
Xiang Chu didn't want to alert the enemy, so he smiled and said, "That's not true. Everyone is suspicious. None of the captured Japanese spies spoke up."
Ning Changde reacted and laughed:
"Yes! It's all in vain."
Ning Caiwei looked at the wall clock in the living room and glanced at Xiang Chu in the direction of Hangzhou.
Xiang Chu understood, raised his glass and stood up, saying with a smile: "Director! Madam! I still have a task to do, I will toast you and then leave."
Ning Changde didn't want to keep drinking. These three rivals were guarding Ning Caiwei at home, so something bad was bound to happen. He would let one of them go first. He nodded and said:
"Okay! I think I saw your subordinates coming to see you earlier."
"is it?"
Xiang Chu pretended to be surprised, drank the wine in the glass, and stood up.
Madam Ning felt that Xiang Chu left early because she had treated him badly, so she ordered, "Caiwei! Please see little Xiang off."
"it is good!"
Ning Caiwei was just wanting it.
This way, I don't have to find a reason to leave this troubled place today.
Xiang Chu left the table, and Dai Zhengtong and Lin Haifeng were too lazy to call on him.
The two continued to drink wine, eat delicious food, and brag. They were willing to drink until dawn as long as Ning Caiwei didn't leave.
But Ning Caiwei quickly put on her coat, picked up her purse, touched Baoer's head, and said to Ning Changde and his wife:
"Uncle! Aunt! I'm on duty today, so I'll just take Xiang Chu's car back to the office."
After saying this, she hurried out of the living room and got into Xiang Chu's car.
Mrs. Ning understood instantly that Ning Caiwei already had someone in her heart.
