After finally convincing Lou Xiao'e to leave, Cao Zhiqiang sighed deeply.

That's the bad thing about working with Lou Xiao'e. The other party is always prone to overthinking, and it's always easy to treat herself as her junior, doing all kinds of "for your own good".

Just like this time, the purpose of Lou Xiao'e's coming here was that she thought Zhu Lin was not simple, but a troublemaker, and did not want her to have a relationship with her. She also believed that she and Zhu Lin were having an affair, so she came to break up.

If Cao Zhiqiang hadn't known Lou Xiao'e's weakness and counterattacked with a rhetorical question at the same time, which touched Lou Xiao'e's mind and made her temporarily forget about the incident, we don't know what the outcome would have been.

"Forget it, no one is perfect. Their intentions are good after all, so there is no need to be too demanding."

After seeing off Lou Xiao'e, Cao Zhiqiang went to take a shower first, then changed into casual clothes, walked out very low-key, and prepared to go to the restaurant for breakfast.

Although there is a food delivery service here, there are only a few things that can be eaten by the food delivery service.

But to get truly delicious food, especially authentic Cantonese morning tea, you have to go to a regular restaurant.

And many things have to be eaten ready-made to taste delicious. If they are delivered, the taste will not be authentic.

When Cao Zhiqiang stayed at Kowloon Shangri-La before, out of caution, he always had room service.

The reason for this is also very simple, that is, Cao Zhiqiang is a public figure after all. Although not many people in Hong Kong know him, there is no big mistake in being careful.

Now that I am about to leave, I have to go to the restaurant here to have a serious meal.

Especially the Chinese restaurants in the Shangri-La Hotel. The first restaurant is called Shang Palace, which is quite famous, especially the Cantonese cuisine, which is very authentic.

In his previous life, Cao Zhiqiang had heard of Shang Palace at Shangri-La Hotel, but he had never tried it.

This time I had the opportunity to visit the Kowloon branch of Shangri-La Hotel, and I had to experience it once.

In addition to Shang Palace, other restaurants such as Italian restaurants, Japanese restaurants, etc. are also very famous.

In short, Shangri-La Hotel Group has always been famous for its delicious food, and room service is second to none.

Therefore, if you can stay in Shangri-La but don't experience the delicious food here, then your trip is in vain.

By the way, at this moment, Cao Zhiqiang is the only one staying in the hotel. As for the others, they have their own places to go.

For example, Zhu Lin is currently living secretly in the house that Lou Xiao'e found for her, and is having a baby quietly.

Xu Qingdong and Xu Chun had returned to the mainland as early as yesterday.

The reason why they were allowed to leave in advance was because Cao Zhiqiang didn't want them to know about Zhu Lin's pregnancy, so he just made an excuse.

For example, to Xu Qingdong, Cao Zhiqiang said that the film studio was full of waste and needed someone to take charge of the overall situation, so he asked Xu Qingdong to go back early.

As for Xu Chun, Cao Zhiqiang was much simpler. He only said that the other party came to contact him, but he could only contact him alone, and hoped that Xu Chun would leave first.

With these two excuses, they both went back obediently.

Xu Chun didn't care, but for Xu Qingdong, he was actually satisfied.

Because Xu Qingdong had already gone to see a concert by Teresa Teng and was satisfied.

If he continues to stay, he will continue to live in a luxury hotel. The daily expenses will make Xu Qingdong feel distressed.

Therefore, Xu Qingdong felt a lot more relieved to be able to go back early.

Although it was Cao Zhiqiang who spent the money, Xu Qingdong was still very worried because he spent too much.

After all, he still maintains that simple and frugal mentality. After all, he is not a greedy person, and naturally he has no intention of taking advantage.

It was precisely because Xu Qingdong and Xu Chun left that Cao Zhiqiang could go to look at the house with Zhu Lin with confidence and boldness.

Later, after Zhu Lin moved into a house near the Hong Kong Sanatorium and Hospital, only Cao Zhiqiang continued to live in the Kowloon Shangri-La Hotel.

Cao Zhiqiang has thought about it. Today he will experience Shang Palace, which is Chinese food, and then try Italian food in the evening, followed by Japanese food, French food, etc.

Anyway, if there are no accidents, I can stay here for two days. If I have three meals a day, I can eat all the restaurants mentioned here.

Soon, Cao Zhiqiang, who was in a happy mood, came to the elevator entrance and waited quietly for the elevator.

When the elevator opened, I found that there was already someone inside. It was a young woman who was very fashionably dressed and wearing large sunglasses that covered most of her face.

Cao Zhiqiang didn't care about this, just took a casual look and turned around.

I looked at the elevator button, pressed the button to go to the restaurant, and then pressed the door closing button.

When the elevator door closed, Cao Zhiqiang stood quietly, waiting for the elevator to go to the restaurant.

However, what Cao Zhiqiang didn't notice was that the fashionable woman wearing big sunglasses frequently peeked at Cao Zhiqiang's profile.

But because she was wearing sunglasses, as long as her movements were not large, it was not clear where her eyes were looking, so Cao Zhiqiang didn't notice.

Soon, the elevator door reopened, and Cao Zhiqiang was the first to walk out of the restaurant minding his own business.

After seeing Cao Zhiqiang walking out, the fashionable woman wearing sunglasses hesitated for a moment, and then followed him out.

Of course Cao Zhiqiang knew that the girl in sunglasses was following him, but he didn't care.

After all, this is the place leading to the restaurant. The woman is most likely a tenant here. It is normal for her to come to the restaurant to eat.

After a while, Cao Zhiqiang came to Shang Palace and took a casual look and found that there were not many people inside.

This may be because Cao Zhiqiang came at the wrong time.

After all, it is almost ten o'clock in the morning. At this time, most Hong Kong people have already had breakfast, and lunch is obviously not in time, so not many people come to the restaurant at this time.

Especially for restaurants inside Shangri-La, there are even fewer people coming to dine there.

In fact, it is better to have less people and be quiet, which is what Cao Zhiqiang likes.

Since Cao Zhiqiang was alone and there were not many people here, Cao Zhiqiang did not choose the so-called "private VIP room", which is also the so-called private room, but chose to dine in.

Finding a round table, Cao Zhiqiang sat down on his own, then picked up the menu and started reading.

Not to mention, there are quite a lot of dishes on the menu, which makes people dazzled. Even Cao Zhiqiang, a well-informed person, suddenly fell into difficulty in choosing.

Just when Cao Zhiqiang was still frowning, choosing what to eat.

Suddenly, a woman next to him suddenly spoke to Cao Zhiqiang in Japanese: "Um, is this Mr. Morinaka Aizumi?"

Cao Zhiqiang was stunned. He put down the menu and looked up. It was the girl with sunglasses he met in the elevator before.

After frowning, Cao Zhiqiang was about to say no, but then he thought, he was not wearing sunglasses or a mask, and the other person asked the question in Japanese, maybe he was a fan or movie fan of his in Japan.

Since people have caught up and asked, there is a high probability that they have recognized him. It would be too unreasonable to deny it at this time.

Besides, there's no one else here, so it doesn't matter if you admit it.

Thinking of this, Cao Zhiqiang smiled slightly and asked the other party in Japanese: "Yes, I am, who are you?"

The girl in sunglasses immediately laughed, then nodded slightly: "Hello, Mr. Morinaka, my name is Theresa Deng, and I am your fan!"

"Theresa Deng?" Cao Zhiqiang was stunned, because this name is obviously more like an English name, but it is pronounced in Japanese, which sounds a bit strange.

But considering that there are a lot of mixed races in Japan at this time, it doesn't matter.

After thinking about it, Cao Zhiqiang simply asked: "Oh, Miss Theresa, no, Miss Deng, hello, are you Japanese?"

"No, it's not." The girl in sunglasses waved her hands quickly, "I'm actually Chinese."

"Ah?" Cao Zhiqiang was stunned again.

It feels weird for a Chinese person to talk to himself in Japanese and call himself an English name with a Japanese pronunciation.

Thinking of this, Cao Zhiqiang simply switched to Mandarin: "Well, since you are Chinese, can you speak Chinese?"

Cao Zhiqiang made up his mind that if the other person said he couldn't speak Japanese, he would just ignore it.

Unexpectedly, when Cao Zhiqiang spoke in Chinese, the other party was slightly surprised, and then replied in authentic Taipei: "Of course, I am Chinese after all."

Soon, the other party said again: "However, Mr. Morinaka, you speak Chinese so well, it's really beyond my expectation.

Sure enough, a genius is a genius, he is strong in everything!

Not only are you great at writing songs and singing, you are also so great at language!"

Hearing this, Cao Zhiqiang raised his eyebrows, probably understanding why the other party had just spoken to him in Japanese.

It is very possible that the other person thought that he was Japanese, so he greeted him in Japanese.

Also, during his career in Japan, he had always kept a low profile, rarely appearing in the media and never accepting interviews.

When Warner promotes itself, it is always ambiguous and basically does not mention its nationality, so many people think that they are actually born and raised in Japan and from Tokyo.

After all, what he speaks is the most authentic Tokyo accent, and anyone from Tokyo can recognize it.

Only a very small number of people know that they are Chinese.

In fact, this approach of Warner Japan cannot be said to be wrong.

Blurring one's nationality is actually more conducive to album sales.

After all, no matter how friendly China and Japan are, it is only superficial, and deep down they are still dominated by resentment and hatred.

This is not only because China hates Japan, Japan also hates Japan the same way, but the starting point is different.

If artists want to make money abroad, they must try to avoid sensitive things. Therefore, whether Warner, Toho, or Fuji TV, they all invariably downplay Cao Zhiqiang's Chinese identity and only focus on publicity when introducing him.

Green spring in the forest.

Even if it was later reported by Wen Chun Weekly, it would only let people know that Morinaka Aizumi, Kudo Yusaku, and the actor Cao Zhiqiang of "Love in the Rain" are all the same person.

However, perhaps because Tsao Chi-Chiang has so many vests, people think that Aizumi Morinaka is his real name, and Tsao Chi-Chiang and Kudo Yusaku are both stage names in different fields.
