Chapter 147: Can't get past my parents

Xiang Chu returned to the office and called Ning Caiwei's office.

Ning Caiwei quickly picked up the phone and said in English:

"Honey! What's the hurry? I have to go to a meeting."

Xiang Chu also answered her in English:

"Ye Hongguang's matter has been taken care of. You can go to the meeting now, dear!"

"You're amazing! Let's talk about it when we get home."

Ning Caiwei praised and quickly hung up the phone.

"What is so urgent?"

Xiang Chu asked in confusion, looked at his watch, and felt that it was time to pick her up.

But Liu Zhengxiong rushed in and hurriedly closed the door.

Xiang Chu asked doubtfully, "Aren't you leading the team to Yongnian Road?"

Liu Zhengxiong smiled bitterly and said, "Yang Jiang just whispered to me that there are too many wounded people in the south. It would be great if we could get some sulfa. I'll tell you first, Xiaowan can't get it, so don't go after her."

"Who wants to take advantage of her?"

Xiang Chu said unhappily, waving his hands.

"I'll think of a way. Go to Yongnian Road quickly and collect all the money so we can buy sulfanilamide. Remember to kill Ichiro Itamoto if you get the chance."

"I know. Didn't you tell me earlier?"

Liu Zhengxiong laughed, turned around and ran out of the room.

“Who do I ask for sulfa?”

Xiang Chu walked out of the room thoughtfully and inspected the offices of each team. Then he walked out of the office building and happened to see Dainong's car speeding out of the gate of the compound.

Then, Xu Xu also walked out of the main office building and ran towards him.

Xiang Chu pretended not to see him and walked towards the parking lot.

Now that he is the team leader, he can park his own car in the compound.

But Xu Xu deliberately approached him and sneered:

"Boy! You're leaving get off work early."

"None of your business!"

Xiang Chu roared at him angrily, as if he was going to beat him up.

"you......"

Xu Xu was frightened and quickly ran away.

He thought Xiang Chu was easy to bully, but he didn't expect him to have such a bad temper.

Xiang Chu thought that since he had already offended him, he might as well offend him enough and see what new tricks he could play.

He started the engine and drove towards the gate of the compound.

Xu Xu looked at the direction where Xiang Chu drove away and said bitterly:

"Xiang! I'll let you have your fun for one more night, and then I'll take care of you tomorrow. Humph!"

Xiang Chu drove to the parking lot outside the gate of the Political Department, but it was not yet time to get off work.

He greeted Jiang Yong and called Zheng Longzheng's office using the duty phone.

When Zheng Longzheng heard it was him, he said enthusiastically:

"Brother! Come in and have a cup of tea. I'm in the office on the east end of the first floor."

"Row!"

Xiang Chu hung up the phone and told Jiang Yong,

"Ayong! If your sister-in-law comes out, tell her I'm going to the logistics department and will be right out."

Jiang Yong said uncomfortably, "Brother Xiang! Which sister-in-law? Staff Officer Kong or Secretary Ning or Secretary Song? Now the rumor is that you are the one who takes it all."

"You kid! How could that be possible? Of course it's Secretary Ning."

Xiang Chu was speechless. Gossip could only spread so much. He waved his hand and walked into the door.

Zheng Longzheng was already at the door of the logistics department to greet him and had prepared tea.

Xiang Chu was puzzled to find that he was the only one in such a huge office.

Xiang Chu couldn't help but laugh and said, "Your salary is higher than that of the minister."

Zheng Longzheng handed over a cup of tea and said with a wry smile, "Our Political Department Logistics Department is responsible for the military and political chief's family. How can we be compared with the Military and Political Department's Logistics Department, which is responsible for managing so many equipment and supplies? But it's still okay."

After he finished speaking, he lowered his voice and asked, "Did Long Yue do this perfectly?"

Xiang Chu knew that he thought he had killed Long Yue and buried him in the dense forest, so he nodded and said:

"Of course! You can rest assured. But it's bad luck to be covered in blood with a knife. By the way! Can you get a silenced pistol?"

"Let me take a look at the supply list."

Zheng Longzheng opened the drawer and took out a list of supplies.

Xiang Chu snatched it away and said mockingly, "You only look at pretty girls with your eyes. I'd better look at it myself."

Zheng Longzheng immediately became excited and mocked, "Good job! You're still blaming me. Now you're playing both sides. The political department has spread the news. Let's see how you end up."

Xiang Chu looked at the list of supplies excitedly and said without hesitation:

"What are you afraid of? I'll collect them all later."

Zheng Longzheng was stunned and said after a while:

"Brother Xiang! If this happens, Kong Ling's parents will definitely kill you."

"Then get me some silenced pistols and sulfa so I can run away."

Xiang Chu said half-jokingly, bringing the conversation back to the topic.

Zheng Longzheng smiled bitterly and said, "It's very expensive! You have to pay for it yourself."

"Money is not a problem! This is a deposit. The more sulfa, the better."

Xiang Chu gave him all the small yellow croakers, US dollars and British pounds he had.

Zheng Longzheng was surprised and asked, "Brother Xiang! How come you are so rich?"

"Brother has three rich girls but still has no money?"

Xiang Chu patted his shoulder and spoke nonsense on purpose.

Zheng Longzheng shook his head and said, "I'm really worried about you, brother."

Xiang Chu saw Song Xi driving away from the window, and hurriedly picked up the phone on his desk and called Ning Caiwei's office, who just picked up the phone.

"Brother Chu! Come over here, Xie Lan is right here with me."

Xiang Chu hung up the phone and said with a smile:

"Old Zheng! Come with me to your sister-in-law's place to meet Deputy Minister Xie's niece."

"That Xie Lan? Great!"

Zheng Longzheng jumped for joy.

Xiang Chu suddenly wondered how he had become the person who introduced partners to Xie Lan.

The two came to Ning Caiwei's room. Xie Lan was already a second lieutenant officer and said happily:

"Handsome boy! I am different now."

Xiang Chu praised her: "Different! She is becoming more and more beautiful and noble. Oh, right! This is my military school classmate Zheng Longzheng. Old Zheng! Your uncle is the chief of some place?"

Zheng Longzheng stared at the plump Xie Lan, poked Xiang Chu and pretended to blame him:

"He is just the head of the Sichuan-Chongqing Administrative Office. Brother Xiang, please don't say these things. Lieutenant Xie will be embarrassed."

"Haha! Why do I feel like you two are a perfect match?"

Xiang Chu smiled, knowing that they both needed to start a new relationship and get over the breakup.

Ning Caiwei saw that both of them seemed interested, so she said with a smile, "Brother Chu! Why don't we host them and treat them to a meal?"

"Okay! Let's go."

Xiang Chu readily agreed.

Ning Caiwei was afraid that Xie Lan would disagree, so she asked in a low voice:

"Alan! How about we have a meal together?"

"Ok!"

Xie Lan remembered her uncle's words that she must find someone of equal status, and nodded with a smile.

"I'll treat you! I'll treat you!"

Zheng Longzheng spoke hurriedly, seeming very satisfied with Xie Lan.

Compared with Xie Xingzhi, Zheng Longzheng was too generous.

In addition to going to the best Jinling Hotel, we were also given a big gift after the meal.

Finally, he drove Xie Lan home and seemed very attentive.

Xiang Chu and Ning Caiwei returned home satisfied, laughing all the way.

After entering the room and washing up, the two went into the bedroom.

Ning Caiwei took out a pile of materials, a little unsure, and said with a wry smile:

"Brother Chu! I got some information. Can you send it to my family right away?"

Xiang Chu looked at it carefully and shook his head, saying, "This information is not particularly important. You have just become a stenographer, so safety is your top priority, and you must gain their absolute trust. I don't think it is necessary to send it out."

"Okay! I listen to you."

Ning Caiwei nodded heavily, put the record on the phonograph, and said with a smile,

"Let's dance!"

"it is good!"

Xiang Chu held her waist and they danced and chatted.

Ning Caiwei said unhappily, "Brother Chu! Tomorrow I will be going to Hangzhou, Shanghai, and Suzhou with my husband and wife. It may take more than ten days. I really don't want to leave you."

"Gone for so long? I really feel reluctant to leave."

Xiang Chu felt the same way. He paused and changed the unpleasant topic.

"Oh, right! I went to Xieren Hospital today to have the red mole on my chest, or wart, removed."

"Let me see how it goes."

Ning Caiwei lifted the clothes on his chest and took a look, then smiled and said:

"Very good! There won't be any traces left in a couple of days. We won't be afraid even if Zhuang Haifei tells others about it."

Xiang Chu smiled and said, "Apply some more ointment and it will heal faster. I saw Dai Nong also went to your political department for a meeting. Did he accept the mission?"

Ning Caiwei nodded and said, "Yes! Dai Nong will personally bring people to provide support tomorrow, but we will leave by train at 7 o'clock tomorrow morning. He hasn't notified you yet, so he definitely won't take you with him."

Xiang Chu shook his head and said, "I am going to arrest the Japanese spy 'Night Wolf' team tomorrow. He will definitely bring his confidant Xu Xu who was newly transferred from the Changsha Intelligence Station."

Ning Caiwei said unhappily: "I really hope you can go with me."

"Dai Nong won't take me on such a show."

Xiang Chu was afraid that she would worry about him, so he didn't tell her about Xu Xu. He sighed and said,

"Caiwei! What I am most worried about now is Kong Ling. I can't get away from her now that I have the information."

Ning Caiwei smiled and said, "Don't be afraid! She definitely won't be able to get past her parents."
