Beijing-Hong Kong Confession

Zhu Xia asked: "Where can we go to see it?"

"My residence." He Lianzhou answered calmly.

Zhu Xia knew about his top-notch mansion in Repulse Bay and had been there once many years ago.

She pinched Bella's clean and soft hair with her fingertips and said nothing.

He Lianzhou didn't care and raised his chin slightly: "Let's go."

Zhu Xia followed the man at a proper distance.

He stopped, and she stopped too.

He Lianzhou looked at her quietly, his eyes unfathomable.

Zhu Xiaqian pursed her lips, quickened her pace and followed him, almost walking in step with him.

They went back in another luxury car, with the driver driving. Zhu Xia sat in the back seat without looking at the man next to her. She leaned her head against the back of the chair and fell asleep again.

The car stopped and she opened her eyes sharply and woke up.

Zhu Xia rubbed her eyes and turned her head to thank He Lianzhou and say goodbye. Before she opened her mouth, she heard him ask, "Won't you invite me up to sit?"

No emotion could be heard from the low voice, but it somehow touched several heartstrings.

The piano melody is not a gentle dance music, but a tense horn.

In the silent night, it's like some kind of signal.

Zhu Xia did not play by the rules. She said slowly, "Wait until I move."

When I move out of Yangriju, I will invite you to come to Yangriju.

Anyway, I have invited them, so it doesn’t matter whether the venue is my house or not.

He Lianzhou chuckled when he heard this.

Zhu Xia was stunned for a moment. His smile was very relaxed, very similar to a moment deep in his memory.

His relaxed attitude made her feel a little uncomfortable.

Zhu Xia swallowed his saliva and said kindly, "Thank you for what I did tonight."

He Lianzhou raised his eyelids and stared at her with his dark eyes. His voice was calm, but his words were thought-provoking.

"Which one?"

Zhu Xia understood what he was alluding to almost immediately.

—In the car, with our fingers intertwined.

The hot, hard and powerful touch cannot be ignored and is hard to forget.

Zhu Xia calmed down, turned away his eyes as if nothing had happened, and did not answer him: "It's too late, have a safe journey."

"Happy summer."

He Lianzhou paused nonchalantly, and Zhu Xia turned around to look at him before closing the car door, "What's wrong?"

"You don't owe me anything, so don't feel guilty."

The man's voice was low and carried to Zhu Xia's ears by the wind, allowing her to hear every word clearly.

Zhu Xia was startled, and his fingers on the car door twitched slightly.

She didn't answer and walked in silently. She took the elevator absent-mindedly again, fortunately this time she didn't have his clothes on.

Zhu Xia was sitting at the entrance changing her shoes. With a click, the lights in the room came on.

She lay on the sofa with her face buried in the soft pillow. She let out a breath that was blocking her throat, but her heartbeat suddenly became more intense.

How could he forgive her when she didn't even apologize!

It made her more and more hateful.

The cell phone rang, and after a long while, when it was about to hang up, she slowly picked it up and looked at it.

Display [Li Baize].

Zhu Xia calmed down immediately, swiped to answer the call, cleared his throat and said "Hello".

"Li Baize." The person on the other end of the phone stated his name for confirmation.

Zhu Xia sat up cross-legged and asked, "How are you? Are you okay?"

"It's okay." said Li Baize.

From He Lianzhou's words "go back alive", Zhu Xia could vaguely guess that there would be some superficial injuries. She roughly asked about the situation and learned that the injury was not serious and Li Baize was treating it.

"Zheng Tianyou was arrested two days before you came to the port." Li Baize said, "The specific reason for his arrest and the crime he was charged with were all kept secret. I tried to find out more, but was warned instead."

Zhu Xia understood: "We can't ask any more questions now. The water inside is deeper than expected. It will not do us any good to get involved."

Li Baize said "hmm" and continued, "Someone has been wanting to do something to Zheng Tianyou, but for some reason, they just kept delaying."

The timeline is so long, the person who planned this must have a very cunning and deep background, and his actions must be very ruthless.

Zhu Xia hesitated for a moment and asked, "Did Shang Xun lay hands on you?"

Li Baize hesitated for a while before answering, "Yes, but it's not because of Zheng Tianyou."

"That's..." Zhu Xia was a little surprised.

Li Baize: "You know Zhou Mo, right?"

Why are you asking Zhou Mo? Zhu Xia was puzzled, but nodded: "I know."

"I have investigated her family before and uncovered some scandals," said Li Baize.

Zhu Xia understood.

Seeking revenge.

Shang Xun was so angry that he attacked Li Baize specifically to make Princess Jasmine happy.

The two talked for a long time. Zhu Xia finally told Li Baize to let Lin Jiayue know she was safe and asked him to contact her if he had any questions before hanging up the phone.

Tonight, things happened one after another. Zhu Xia felt that all 206 bones and every cell in her body were extremely tired, so she decided to take a bath and comfort herself.

Light a candle and put on some soothing music. Zhu Xia soaks in a bathtub full of bubbles and slowly closes her eyes.

Normally, it is not advisable to take a bath when you are too tired, because it is easy to get into trouble, especially when you are alone.

Zhu Xia dried her fingers, stretched her arms to reach her phone, and played games to kill time. She first played Landlord, Minesweeper, and Mahjong, then turned back to Plants vs. Zombies. When she got tired of playing, she just checked the updates and news.

[Piano genius 'Princess Jasmine' Zhou Mo is about to hold her first solo concert in Hong Kong! ]

She clicked on it and just glanced at the beginning when a new incoming call suddenly popped up on the phone screen.

In the middle of the night, no one would disturb her except that man.

Even so, Zhu Xia was still shocked.

Two hours ago, at Pets Central Animal Hospital, she released him from the blacklist.

Not very willing, but not very resistant either.

Zhu Xia calmly prepared to hang up, but his words "You don't owe me anything, don't feel guilty" suddenly came to her mind. After a long struggle, she finally answered the call.

She clicked on the hands-free mode, turned up the volume, looked at the call displayed on the phone screen, and greeted politely: "Hello."

There was a strange silence on the other end of the phone.

After hearing no movement for a long time, Zhu Xia hesitated and asked, "He Lianzhou?"

Three seconds later, a man's voice came from the receiver of the phone, his voice was deep and magnetic but with a hoarseness that could not be concealed: "What are you doing?"

Zhu Xia didn't answer, but asked directly: "What's wrong so late at night?"

She emphasized the word "late at night", and the man who was observing her expression must have heard it. But he was silent for a short time.

Zhu Xia's feet were a little stiff and numb. She moved, and the water surged, with the subtle sound of the waves echoing in the bathroom.

"You are taking a bath." He Lianzhou concluded on his own, his voice clear as if speaking into his ear.

Zhu Xia looked around reflexively, and after making sure no one was around, he said calmly, "Bathing, eating, and sleeping are normal human behaviors. There's nothing strange about that."

"Happy summer."

"Hmm?" Zhu Xia waited for his next words.

“The sound is different when you’re comfortable.”
