Beijing-Hong Kong Confession

Chapter 26 Is the Reason Sufficient?

Eyes facing each other.

After a moment of silence, Zhu Xia suddenly laughed: "Why, Master He has a habit of eavesdropping on women's conversations?"

He Lianzhou had an indifferent expression, and it was impossible to see what was hidden in his eyes in the dim environment.

The trace of alcohol turned into burning sensation in Zhu Xia's stomach.

She sneered, "And I was eavesdropping on the conversation about how to take you down."

He Lianzhou stared at her and asked in a deep voice: "Are we lovers?"

Zhu Xia met his gaze, fearlessly challenging his patience: "What else? Tell her we're friends with benefits?"

He Lianzhou frowned when he heard this, and pursed his thin lips into a line. His scrutinizing eyes fell on her face, as if he was spying on what she was thinking in her heart.

Zhu Xia, who was kidnapped by the man and taken back to the apartment, understood that he was angry.

She was not interested in the relationship between He Lianzhou and Liang Yiying.

But at this moment, she felt a little curious about the angry He Lianzhou.

She had never seen He Lianzhou lose his temper, he was too emotionally stable.

Zhu Xia can bear the consequences of angering a man.

The absurdity and madness of their days and nights could not be erased, and the happy days they spent together could not be written off just like that.

She curled up on the sofa and kept laughing, with her feet on his knees and her fingers stroking Bella's head as she lay under the sofa.

The crystal chandelier always makes the sofa look warm...

Zhu Xia opened her eyes. The living room was as bright as day. She was in a trance for a few seconds.

The clock passed twelve in the morning.

There was no one else in the room except her.

This is not a penthouse suite in a Beijing hotel, nor an apartment in a wealthy area of ​​London, but a residence in Hong Kong.

The Waterfront is a private housing estate in the first phase of the Kowloon MTR Kowloon Station in the Hong Kong West Kowloon area. It has six buildings and residents can travel to and from the railway station via the sky garden. The transportation is convenient and quiet.

Zhu Xia returned home leisurely, changed his shoes at the entrance, casually placed the document bag and the shopping bag containing books on the coffee table in the living room, and slumped down on the sofa like a boneless person.

Then, in a short while, I fell asleep.

The light from the incandescent lamp above my head was as pure and bright as a snowflake.

Zhu Xia's confused mind gradually regained clarity, and the messy memories in her dream were put aside.

With an empty mind, she went to wash up, and after taking a shower, she climbed into bed and lay down.

After tossing and turning for half an hour, Zhu Xia opened the drawer, stared at the bottles and jars inside for a while, then stretched out his hand to reach for his cell phone.

01: 56.

She randomly clicked into an app, and the recommended topics on the page were:

It's 01:55 in the morning. Why aren't you asleep?

This topic was just posted a minute ago, and it's newer than Crayon Shin-chan.

Zhu Xia turned off the software, put on her slippers, went into the piano room, and played the guitar.

The housing estate at Yangriju has good sound insulation, so there is no need to worry about being complained about for disturbing others in the middle of the night.

Twenty minutes later, the guitar music and rhythmic singing stopped.

Zhu Xia curled up in the single sofa and watched the TV series with great interest.

As she watched, she dozed off and only remembered one good line.

"We who happen to be alive should not be afraid of death."

The sound of the iPad's external speaker lingers in my ears continuously.

Zhu Xia was playing chess with Zhou Gong while listening to the TV series.

The first thought that came to her mind when she woke up was that she could tell Lin Jiayue about the new method.

Listen while sleeping, and the plot will automatically enter your mind.

-

EVG Club is located in West Kowloon, one of the bustling areas of Hong Kong.

The first floor is where all kinds of men and women drink and have fun, the second floor private rooms are where the wealthy gather for entertainment, and the third floor private rooms are only for bigwigs at the top of the industry pyramid to discuss business.

As night falls, the lights are on.

Zhu Xia and Lin Jiayue stepped into the prosperous area. The music in the hall was soothing but not deafening.

Zhu Xia sat in a relatively quiet booth, with her bare hands resting on the glass, shaking it gently.

"I'm going to switch to the financial channel." Lin Jiayue bit the straw with her red lips and chatted with Zhu Xia.

Zhu Xia looked around and looked back at her: "Don't you hate finance?"

"Yes." Lin Jiayue said vividly, "The leader said that I asked you to transfer because I knew you hated it. If you liked it, why would I let you transfer? Is the reason sufficient?"

Zhu Xia: “…Sufficient.”

Is this the boss?

Aren’t they enemies?

"My ambition is to expose big cases, such as the sensational Tuen Mun sex offender in the 90s." Lin Jiayue curled her lips, "not to discuss the financial crisis with the capital giants."

Zhu Xia groaned and said, "We don't necessarily have to talk about the financial crisis."

"Talking about gossip and romance?" Lin Jiayue's eyes suddenly lit up and sparkled.

Zhu Xia nodded and said seriously: "Then you can bring out your famous quote."

"What famous quote?"

"He has neither talent nor money. You'd be a fool to like him."

Lin Jiayue burst out laughing.

This was said a long time ago when a boy was pursuing Zhu Xia, but Zhu Xia was too lazy to pay attention to him.

The moon stepped forward, put her hands on her waist, and cursed: "You are neither talented nor rich. I am stupid for liking you."

The reason why Lin Jiayue dared to curse so unscrupulously was because her courage was given by Zhu Xia.

Zhu Xia is the female version of Sun Wukong who caused havoc in Heaven.

Fear neither heaven nor earth.

Of course, this was just Lin Jiayue's idea, and Zhu Xia himself was not aware of it.

Zhu Xia lowered her eyelids and her gaze fell on the intact food in front of Lin Jiayue. She asked, "I ordered delicious food specifically for you to warm up your room. Why don't you eat it?"

Lin Jiayue said seriously: "There is only one intestine, asymmetrical. I have no appetite."

Zhu Xia used a knife and fork to divide the sausage on her plate into two equal parts, raised an eyebrow and said, "It's symmetrical now, eat it."

Lin Jiayue: “…”

It is really a waste of talent for a skilled hand with a scalpel to cut sausages.

Guilty sin.

Zhu Xia supported his chin with one hand and retrieved the information about the owner of EVG Club in his mind.

Zheng Tianyou, who is nearly 60 years old, has no children or grandchildren. His ex-wife is from Beijing. He lived in Wong Tai Sin Temple for six years and founded the EVG Club after leaving Wong Tai Sin Temple.

The basic information matches.

She originally wanted to use her identity as a reporter and an interview as a starting point to meet Zheng Tianyou.

Unexpectedly, by some coincidence, Zheng Tianyou is not here today.

Zhu Xia looked at the liquid in the glass and suddenly thought of He Lianzhou.

After realizing that it was inevitable that she would meet him in Hong Kong, she became particularly calm and composed.

There is no need to hide from what is bound to happen.

I just don't know how long a man's politeness can last.

Calm and indifferent is only one side of He Lianzhou. To be able to sit in his current position, he is definitely not a good person and acts decisively and ruthlessly.

When they were together, the man controlled everything through charm and force. But after they separated, she couldn't judge him.

On the second floor, a line of sight inadvertently swept across the hall and suddenly stopped on the two girls in the booth.

The colorful lights on the first floor rotated and spread everywhere. Zhu Xia supervised Lin Jiayue, who was on an excessive diet, to finish her food.

Suddenly, a sweet female voice sounded in my ears.

"Hello."

Zhu Xia looked in the direction of the voice and was startled when he saw the other person's somewhat familiar eyes.

Similar...and not similar.
