Hong Kong Nights of Passion

Chapter 87 Isn't this just latching onto a "powerful figure"?

The next day, when Wen Jinnian got up and went downstairs, Linda had already returned and had set out breakfast.

She looked up at the top of the stairs and asked in confusion, "Where is your young master?"

"Young Master had something to do and left before dawn. He specifically instructed that Miss Wen should eat well."

Wen Jinnian sat down as instructed, munching on her bread while swiping her phone screen.

The top trending topic instantly stunned her.

(Fu Yanjie, the young master of the Fu family, and Fan Tong, the young lady of the Fan family, couldn't help but put on a live reality show.)

The number of likes is rapidly approaching ten million, and the comment section has already exploded.

Without much thought, this is most likely Chi Yige's doing again.

Due to her work habits, Wen Jinnian has always preferred a casual and artistic style of dressing.

Today, she wore a pink suspender dress with a plain-colored shirt and white platform shoes. She casually stuffed her tablet into her canvas bag, braided a simple side braid, and went out.

Just as I stepped out the door, a gleaming Bentley came into view.

Bodyguard Xiao Nan had already deftly opened the back door of the car and said with a serious expression, "Young Master said it's not very safe lately, so he asked me to protect Miss Wen closely."

Wen Jinian nodded and got into the car, her fingertips unconsciously stroking the soft leather seats.

Thinking of the lavish house he had arranged for her recently, and looking at the luxury car in front of her, she couldn't help but smile bitterly to herself.

Isn't this just like hooking up with a "big shot"?
If you were to ask me to "take care of you" right now, Chi Yige would probably pull out a few black cards in the blink of an eye.

It was half an hour later when we arrived at the ICC building.

The changes are indeed very obvious. So many shops have sprung up in a short period of time. Wen Jinnian kept moving forward.

Hong Kong-style morning tea, street food, milk tea shops, Hong Kong-style desserts, gyms, libraries... it's bustling with activity.

She has two classes today, teaching middle school students sketching.

After the students arrived one by one, she prepared to begin the class. Originally, she had planned to go out for a field trip, but due to the frequent rain in recent days, she changed the course to indoor teaching.

In class, she was beautiful and taught with exceptional dedication.

She was leading her students in sketching the general outline of a sculpture when a heated argument suddenly broke out outside the classroom.

She had no choice but to let the students continue drawing while she went out to check.

Fu Yanjie and Fan Tong were seen arguing at the gate, while Duan Jiaxu and Fu Yiyi had already rushed over.

Upon seeing Wen Jinnian, Fu Yiyi immediately approached her and said, "They've come with ill intentions; they're probably after you."

Wen Jinnian whispered a few words in Fu Yiyi's ear, her eyes growing brighter and brighter.

Why didn't she go to the banquet yesterday? She missed the live broadcast!
Seeing their arrogant demeanor, Wen Jinnian gave a very official smile: "You two are here to learn to paint?"

Fu Yanjie scoffed: "Who would learn this rubbish!"

“I have surveillance cameras here. Believe me or not, I’ll broadcast what you’re saying to the students inside. When they go home and tell their parents, they’ll drown you in their spittle.”

Fu Yiyi immediately clapped her hands in agreement: "That's right! The students here are all relatives of aristocratic families. To say that sketching is rubbish is just slapping them in the face!"

Fu Yiyi pointed to the 360-degree camera above her head, "I'll have the staff save the recording right away."

Seeing this, Fu Yanjie and Fan Tong were so anxious that they stomped their feet and their faces turned bright red.

Fan Tong glanced at Fu Yanjie with disdain: "We're here to solve problems, what are you making a scene for!"

Wen Jinian was somewhat surprised; she hadn't expected Fan Tong to actually use her brain this time.

She cut to the chase: "Wen Jinnian, I know you did what happened yesterday."

"What do you want to say?"

"Please take this trending topic down."

"Trending on social media?" Fu Yiyi immediately shielded Wen Jinnian behind her. "What does this have to do with Niannian? She came to work right after waking up. She doesn't have that kind of influence!"

Fan Tong's voice trembled with anxiety: "I'm begging you! The trending topic is so high, my family is pressuring me to marry him, but it's impossible for us!"

Fu Yanjie immediately jumped up and down: "Why can't I be with you? My family is a wealthy family."

"You're always out there messing around, who knows what diseases you've caught!" Seeing that the two were about to start arguing again, Wen Jinnian put on peacemaking mode: "Please stop fighting! If you're not sick, go to the hospital to get checked out. I have classes to teach, and what you're doing will affect my students."

Fu Yanjie's face was gloomy. His momentary lapse of judgment yesterday had led to Wen Jinnian's secret scheme.

Although he knew that the other party had powerful backers, he was still unable to find out who that person was.

Moreover, he received a warning yesterday. He suppressed his anger and almost pleaded, "I promise I will never dare to mess with you again. Please take this trending topic down! Now that my relationship with her is the talk of the town, if we really get married, it will be like an egg hitting a rock. I simply can't survive!"

Wen Jinnian covered her mouth and chuckled: "Young Master Fu, you two are actually a perfect match."

"What are you doing?"

Suddenly, I heard a familiar voice behind me.

Wen Jinnian looked up and saw Jiang Shu holding flowers and a shopping bag, standing not far away.

"elder brother!"

Wen Jinnian exclaimed instinctively, "Why are you here?"

Jiang Shu chuckled lightly: "I was just discussing a collaboration with Chijiang Group and stopped by to see you."

Jiang Shu stepped forward, his gaze turning cold: "Young Master Fu, this trending topic couldn't possibly have been done by Nian Nian."

“If you really want to solve the problem, why don’t you go home and ask? I just came back from my hometown and heard that the Fu family is discussing a marriage alliance with the Fan family.”

Fan Tong's expression changed drastically, and she subconsciously reached out to pull Jiang Shu, but he dodged her.

Jiang Shu stared at Fu Yanjie: "I also hope that Young Master Fu will refrain from having any designs on Nian Nian in the future."

Wen Jinian followed along, still appearing obedient and sensible.

"Young Master Fu, you reap what you sow. It's always better to be down-to-earth. Besides, you and Miss Fan are truly a perfect match."

Fu Yanjie and Fan Tong originally intended to threaten Wen Jinnian, but unexpectedly Jiang Shu suddenly appeared.

He was wary of the Jiang family's power, so Fu Yanjie held back his harsh words, turned around and left with a cold face.

Fan Tong, no longer arrogant, turned to Wen Jin Nian in an almost pleading tone and said, "We're both women, please help me this time!"

Wen Jinian still feigned innocence, saying, "I really don't have that ability."

Even though she knew in her heart that it was Chi Yige who made the move, she would not interfere.

She deserved it.

Having exhausted all other options, Fan Tong picked up her bag and left dejectedly.

Jiang Shu looked at Wen Jinnian: "Niannian, want to go to the restaurant to talk about something?"

"I still have one class to attend." Wen Jinnian wanted to refuse, but Jiang Shu insisted on waiting, leaving her helpless.

after an hour.

She said a few words to Fu Yiyi, grabbed her bag, and followed him into the elevator.

With a "ding," the elevator doors opened.

When Wen Jinnian saw the people in the elevator, she suddenly stopped in her tracks.

Chi Yige stood in the center, with Li Mingyi following behind him carrying a stack of documents.

His gaze swept over the two people standing on either side of the elevator entrance, and he suddenly chuckled: "Young Master Jiang, did you come here specifically to see Wen?"

Jiang Shu hadn't expected to bump into him in the elevator. He said casually, "I have something to take care of. Let's have lunch together."

Just as the elevator doors were about to close, Chi Yige suddenly reached out to stop them, looked up at Wen Jinnian, and asked, "Wen, aren't you coming in?"

Her ears burned, but she forced herself to step into the elevator.

Chi Yige turned sideways without making a sound and stood behind her on her right.

Li Mingyi, holding the documents, watched helplessly as his young master's fingertips lightly hooked onto Wen Jinnian's fingers.

One hid, while the other openly tried to take his hand.
