Beijing-Hong Kong Confession

The restaurant is located on the 33rd floor of a star-rated hotel. It only serves two tables in the morning and evening, which is comparable to the level of a state banquet and is difficult to book.

The box design is a perfect blend of classic and modern, Chinese and Western styles, with sliding doors, large floor-to-ceiling windows, unparalleled views, sophisticated hardware, smart interactive TVs, and spa-style bathrooms. Floor-to-ceiling windows offer a panoramic view of the bustling scenery from every angle, including the central axis of Beijing, the Jingguang Bridge and the Guomao Bridge, Chang'an Avenue to the west, and Guomao CBD to the north, with a dazzling view.

Zhu Xia went to the bathroom to fix her makeup before entering the private room. Without lipstick, her lips did not look dull, but even more gorgeous.

She simply washed her lips with clean water, making sure the color returned to normal before leaving.

The man stood by the French window, his tall and straight figure facing away from her, one hand holding the phone and the other hand casually in his trouser pocket. He spoke Cantonese, and the person on the other end of the phone should be from Hong Kong.

Zhu Xia looked at him silently for a long time until the manager and the waiter came over with the food cart, and then she came back to her senses.

He Lianzhou turned sideways upon hearing the voice and saw Zhu Xia sitting down and slowly wiping his hands with a hot towel.

The table was filled with delicious dishes, including caviar, chef's soup rice, mackerel, large toro, mana bonito, white shrimp, medium-rare wagyu beef... Each dish was beautifully presented and pleasing to the eye.

When eating at the Song family or attending a banquet, there is always someone serving you, constantly pouring tea and wine, changing plates, taking away empty plates, and asking about the status of the dishes... The service is very thoughtful.

I wish Xia to eat in private and be free.

After the waiter served the dishes, she glanced at the man who was still on the phone and took the initiative to ask the manager and others to leave.

The girl exuded an aura of authority, so the manager agreed and said that if anyone needed anything, they could press the bell and they would come as soon as possible.

Zhu Xia nodded.

The manager left the room with the waiter, and He Lianzhou finished his phone call. The two sat down face to face. He Lianzhou raised his long fingers to unbutton a few of his shirts, and the golden and magnificent light slanted on him, making his sharp Adam's apple look indescribably attractive.

Caviar and plump sea urchins are smooth and sweet. Zhu Xia's eyes are rolling, looking far away, looking at the dazzling night view of Beijing.

The cell phone on her left hand rang. She looked down and saw that it was Aunt Zhao.

Zhu Xia raised her eyes to look at the man opposite her, he looked at her expressionlessly.

Zhu Xia put down his chopsticks, wiped his mouth with a tissue, and answered the call: "Aunt Zhao... I didn't run into any trouble... Well, I'll go out to eat. Please help me talk to Grandpa and Third Brother... I'm back, it's just a friend who came from afar... You don't have to send anyone to pick me up, and you don't have to prepare a midnight snack for me... Okay, bye."

After ending the call, Zhu Xia clicked on WeChat and sent a message to her grandfather and third brother, saying that she would not be back for dinner and asked them to eat first.

After sending the message, she raised her head again and casually asked the man opposite: "Why did you come to Beijing? Are you on a business trip?"

Two days have passed since the Mid-Autumn Festival, and Song Chengyu has plunged into his busy work again.

He Lianzhou nodded and asked indifferently: "Do you consider me a friend?"

The medium-rare Wagyu beef was cooked so that the fat melted and formed rich gravy. Zhu Xia was chewing slowly. He paused when he heard the words and asked, "What else?" Do you think of me as a sex buddy?

She didn't say the rest of the words. She knew without even thinking that he would be angry if she said them.

He Lianzhou raised his eyebrows slightly, and his voice dropped coldly: "Do you have other men you like?"

Zhu Xia was stunned. She blinked her eyelashes and said vaguely, "What do you mean by other men you like? You are asking the wrong question."

"A male doctor from your hospital."

A male doctor in the hospital?

Zhu Xia hesitated for a while and said, "I don't want to have an office romance. Does that mean I can't have a relationship with the opposite sex except for the male doctors in the hospital?"

He Lianzhou raised the corner of his lip in an ambiguous manner.

Zhu Xia: “…”

Is he laughing at her?

But if you think about it carefully, the patients of the opposite sex that she had come into contact with over the years were basically men, and of course she never treated them as men when she came into contact with them.

Doctors only see patients, not gender.

Although You Feng and Li Baize are of the opposite sex, she doesn't seem to regard them as men.

One is a stray old dog, and the other is a business partner.

When she was in school, she was focused on her heavy academic workload. After graduation, she was focused on her work at the hospital. She had no time to think about men.

"I know you come into contact with ladies from famous families and daughters of rich families every day, and you have countless romantic opportunities. There's no need to tell me specifically." Zhu Xia said in a leisurely tone.

He Lianzhou studied her expression for a few seconds, then opened his thin lips and said, "Zhu Xia."

"what."

"Are you jealous?"

It was a question, but it sounded very certain coming from his mouth.

Zhu Xia was eating handmade vegetarian noodles with red devil shrimp. When she heard his words, she choked and coughed a few times. She raised the cup of water and drank it all before she felt better.

"I don't!"

Maybe because she choked, the girl's cheeks were slightly flushed, and she glared at him unhappily while speaking. It was as if she was angry out of shame.

A barely perceptible smile appeared on He Lianzhou's lips, and he decided to quit while he was ahead.

In the second half of the meal, the manager led the waiter to bring two desserts. The green apple sorbet was light and cute, like a fat cloud, containing green apples and pecans. The hazelnut coffee ice cream was sweet and refreshing, and melted in the mouth.

Zhu Xia didn't ask He Lianzhou how he knew Chief Meng. She guessed it was related to work. It's better not to talk about work during dinner time.

The box was spacious. After finishing his meal, Zhu Xia lazily curled up on the sofa, holding a gold-thread pillow in his arms, his head leaning against the back of the sofa, scrolling through his phone out of boredom.

He Lianzhou received a call and stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window to answer it.

Whether in the past or now; whether in public or private matters.

He never avoided her when he called her, and had no fear that she would leak secrets.

There is no safety awareness at all.

[The Iron Triangle of Business] There is new news in the group.

Li Baize: "Will Sumer come back tomorrow? Come on."

Zhu Xia: "Something happened at home, so I have to postpone it for five days"

Lin Jiayue: "This year the moon is full for three days, I thought I could enjoy the moon with you."

Zhu Xia: "Appreciate the moon, would you like to appreciate the moon with me?"

Lin Jiayue: "Good idea! Let me prepare a few sets of uniforms, and we'll have a pajama party when you come back."

Li Baize: "We share the beauty of the moon even though we are thousands of miles apart. Looking up at the moon together is like appreciating the moon together."

After seeing this message, Zhu Xia looked up past He Lianzhou and looked out the window. A full moon was as bright as jade in the inky sky.

In the field of vision, the man and the bright moon were very close to each other, and against the backdrop of the deep and silent night, he looked even more lonely and cold.

Zhu Xia leaned her elbows on the back of the sofa, supported her head with her fingers, stared at him for a moment, and couldn't help laughing.

He Lianzhou turned around and saw this scene.

The girl curled up on the sofa, her posture relaxed, her smile bright, her eyes sparkling, dazzling and eye-catching.
