Beijing-Hong Kong Confession

It's Friday night and the lights are on.

Zhu Xia got into Lin Jiayue's new car and headed to the auction venue.

The port city is an urban forest made of reinforced concrete, with tall and densely packed skyscrapers glittering with neon lights.

Central is surrounded by mountains and the sea, and its bright lights and stars shine brightly.

After they got out of the elevator, a staff member came forward to greet them. The staff member checked the invitation letter and politely invited them in.

The non-public venue is only open to those invited internally. There are not many people in the exhibition hall, and only a few or one person is walking in the dim space.

The brightness belongs exclusively to the exhibits, and in the middle of the table are precious jewellery that dazzles with brilliance.

"Even a small auction is worth tens of billions of dollars, and there are many private jewels..."

Lin Jiayue pulled Zhu Xia to look at the jade ring jewelry, her eyes shining, "This will definitely look good on you."

Seeing her laughing happily, Zhu Xia also found it interesting and flipped through the catalog:

"Seven rings of the same style but different colors. A different ring every day? Isn't that a bit exaggerated?"

"I'm not asking you to change men every day, how can that be exaggerated?"

Lin Jiayue changed the subject and said, "It's not impossible actually. A few days ago, a TV station interviewed a male singer who was handsome, had a good figure and sang well."

"Then when will you treat me to a meal?" Zhu Xia said immediately.

"What are you talking about! I'm trying to bring you together."

Lin Jiayue's eyes reflected the colorful light of the gemstone, "Wouldn't it be good to have more romance?"

Zhu Xia: "Buy more jewelry and wear them till the end of time."

"Roar." Lin Jiayue laughed, with a provocative curve at the corner of her lips.

They strolled in the dim exhibition hall, surrounded by luxurious and extravagant jewels, shining brightly like stars in the Milky Way.

"Eh!"

Lin Jiayue suddenly raised her elbow and touched Zhu Xia, "He Lianzhou."

Zhu Xia looked around.

"Here." Lin Jiayue motioned for her to look at her phone.

Zhu Xia looked over with drooped eyelids.

There was a photo on the screen. Judging from the background, it seemed like a luxurious banquet. Gilded lanterns were hung in an orderly manner in the air, and the walls were decorated with famous oil paintings... The screen was full of splendor.

Among the crowd of dignitaries, He Lianzhou was particularly eye-catching, like the moon surrounded by stars.

The photo was taken in a mottled light environment, but the man was not restricted by light and dark, his features were handsome and his outline seemed to be drawn with the sharpest pen. He was full of indescribable nobility, his posture was calm and indifferent, like an unreachable cliff.

Zhu Xia's expression froze as he caught a glimpse of Pinting's pretty figure in the lower left corner of the photo.

——Is it her?

"The eye sockets are slightly deep, the nose bridge is high, and the lips are thin." Lin Jiayue rubbed her chin with the back of her fingers, "Does she look a bit mixed-blood?"

Zhu Xia recalled that when they were talking about everything, He Lianzhou mentioned that his mother was mixed-race. As for him...

"Fake half-blood," she said.

After a while, the photo disappeared automatically, as if it had never appeared.

It is WhatsApp’s self-destructing message feature.

The He family is a wealthy family in Hong Kong, recognized as a top capital, but because they are too low-key and mysterious, the outside world knows very little about the He family's children. He Lianzhou rarely appears in public, and in addition, he has been mainly involved in foreign industries in the past few years, so the media can hardly catch any trace of him.

"His mother, Jiang Qiyun, is a Hong Kong beauty queen and a world-renowned jewelry designer. Many of her works have been exhibited in three famous international museums."

Lin Jiayue has a special liking for jewelry. Every year, she goes to the world's top jewelry designer exhibition held at the Wynn Hotel in Las Vegas, where she talks eloquently about jewelry.

"After Jiang Qiyun retired, the He family's jewelry business was handed over to the eldest daughter, He Chuyin. My father told me that tonight's internal auction was organized by He Chuyin."

……

The corridor upstairs is hidden in the dim light and has a low sense of presence. It is a good position from which one can observe every move of everyone below.

"I heard that you bought a new villa in the mainland?" Jiang Anyu wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on his nose and looked very gentle.

"Buy one for happiness." He Lianzhou didn't even raise his eyelids.

"I talked to Chu Yin today, and she asked me to introduce a friend to you in a while."

"Do not have time."

He Lianzhou swiped his slender finger across the phone screen to unlock it.

The wallpaper shows the back of a girl in a graduation gown, with red bricks, green ground and blue sky. She stands in front of the library with three oversized flags hanging on it, forming a beautiful landscape.

Jiang Anyu pretended to glance at it casually and said, "My grandfather has said that it is absolutely impossible for the leader of the group to have no woman around him and not get married for a long time."

As if hearing a joke, He Lianzhou raised one corner of his lips, "Do I need to prove it to others?"

As He Jihua's most promising grandson, He Lianzhou first took charge of the family trust fund and then succeeded the business empire. In just a few years, he was able to control the group inside and outside. He was measured in his actions, decisive in killing, and watertight. There was really no need to prove it.

"The main reason is that Farah is often entangled by strange adults. If you create a younger brother or sister, Farah will be relieved." Jiang Anyu smiled.

He Lianzhou's eyes swept downwards, paused at a certain place for a few seconds, and then walked away.

As soon as he moved, the previously invisible bodyguard immediately followed him.

Jiang Anyu followed his line of sight and saw two people.

Lin Jiayue, who was bending over to stare at the dazzling and colorful treasures in the glass cabinet, had rosy lips and white teeth, and wore eye-catching and luxurious accessories on her hands, ears, and neck. She was no different from the gorgeous and beautiful daughter of the Lin family in her impression.

The girl next to her who was looking down at a booklet was relatively calm and cool, with long black hair falling down her shoulders, a white top and a brown suede skirt that was three inches above her knees. She had a thin waist and long legs, and her whiteness could rival the snow on the top of Mount Everest.

Jiang Anyu looked at Zhu Xia. Doctor Zhu's unique temperament stood out whether he was wearing a mask or not.

Zhu Xia seemed to have noticed something and tilted his head towards this side.

He knew that she probably couldn't see him clearly, but his heart still panicked for a moment. When she fixed her eyes on him and looked away as if nothing had happened, he smiled.

Doctor Zhu really has the ability to make people nervous. When he glances at someone, his eyes can instantly penetrate their hearts.

Jiang Anyu patted his chest and breathed a sigh of relief.

-

"Doctor Zhu."

Zhu Xia thought the voice sounded familiar, and when he turned his head, he saw that it was indeed the middle-aged man he met in front of the hospital elevator. Next to him was a young man in a suit and tie with a straight brow.

Uncle Cai introduced Chen Shao to Zhu Xia and Lin Jiayue with a smile.

Although Zhu Xia was puzzled as to why they wanted to introduce each other, she was too lazy to delve into interpersonal relationships, so she just nodded at them and greeted them with a generous smile.

"Mr. Lin invested a 5.2 carat fancy pink diamond with a diamond ring a few days ago." Cai Shuwen said to Lin Jiayue with a smile, "I believe Miss Lin will also gain something tonight."

"Then I'll take advantage of Daddy's blessing." Lin Jiayue smiled.

Uncle Cai and Chen Shao introduced to them the procedures, auction items, banquet hall and other matters for tonight, and told them to contact them if they needed anything.

After exchanging pleasantries, they walked away.

Lin Jiayue sighed: "The work is meticulous and they are so enthusiastic about the guests."

"I'm taking advantage of your dad's blessing." Zhu Xia replied in her own words.

Lin Jiayue happily said: "I'll go take a look ahead and get two glasses of champagne. You wait here for me."

Zhu Xia nodded, and she continued to observe the natural emerald parrot in the booth according to the catalog in her hand. The finest jade was finely carved and looked lifelike.

Looking at it with rapt attention.

A glass of champagne was handed to her. Zhu Xia stretched out her hand, and when they touched each other, the other's fingertips rubbed against her little finger.

It was a very subtle touch, like the gentle brush of a bird of prey's feathers.

Not Lin Jiayue.
