Zhou Hao was sitting alone at the Peninsula Hotel in Hong Kong, next to a huge clear floor-to-ceiling window. Through this floor-to-ceiling window, he could see the bright night view of most of Kowloon, which was very comfortable.
The lights in this restaurant are dim, and each table is separated by a considerable distance, giving guests enough space and privacy. In addition to a few dim chandeliers on the ceiling, there is a small lantern on each table, and the light is not uniform.
It is so strong that it can barely illuminate most of the table. However, this little lamp
The light allows the restaurant to blend well with the night view and starry sky outside, giving guests the illusion that they are under the bright starry sky. There is also soft music flowing in the air, making guests here naturally
Speak softly so as not to ruin the romantic atmosphere.
However, the Peninsula Hotel is the only six-star hotel in Hong Kong, so the consumption is naturally very high. For example, the minimum consumption of this unique restaurant on a high floor overlooking the night view of Kowloon starts at a few thousand Hong Kong dollars.
I don't know whether it's because of the high price or other reasons, but there are only a few customers in this restaurant today.
Zhou Hao did not let Su Lin or Liang Xiaobing accompany him, but sat here alone, quietly looking at the night scene outside, his eyes were very deep. On the table in front of him, there was a cup of small liquid that kept rising.
Bubbly Sprite.
It stands to reason that in such an environment, one should drink red wine or champagne. But Zhou Hao's favorite drink is Sprite, and he doesn't bother to do those arty things, and he won't wrong himself just to show off.
In his previous life, he was just a commoner who wanted peace in everything, and often had to endure various pressures to survive. However, Zhou Hao was very unwilling deep down in his heart. In his previous life, he could do whatever he wanted, no matter what he wanted.
Worry about this and that, and enjoy life freely. However, due to limited conditions and forced by the environment, he can only work hard for life like thousands of other people who have great ambitions but are unable to achieve their goals.
It's different now. As his strength grows rapidly, he can really do things that he couldn't even imagine in his previous life. He really has the feeling of letting a bird fly as high as the sky.
Precisely because of his strength, he now wants whatever he likes, rarely being delicate or pretentious. This also makes him different from those true nobles or nouveau riche. He is very direct, cheerful, and even direct and overbearing.
Perhaps it was for this reason that He Xueyun, who was used to seeing dragons and phoenixes among people, became deeply obsessed with him and could not extricate himself.
Picking up the Sprite and taking a sip, Zhou Hao exhaled slightly after tasting its sweet and pungent taste.
At this time, he was thinking about He Xueyun.
To be honest, in terms of appearance, He Xueyun is not as devastating as the Tokugawa Lady Nanami Kaoru. In terms of personality, he is not as decisive and almost ruthless as Zhao Yuqin, who was born in a military family.
However, He Xueyun gives people the same feeling as those ladies from scholarly families in ancient times, quiet, gentle, and with a restrained atmosphere.
I still remember that when I first met Zhou Hao, He Xueyun appeared as a noble and reserved lady. At that time, Zhou Hao concluded that this woman was a lady with excellent etiquette.
However, what attracted Zhou Hao more to He Xueyun than her reserved jade temperament was the resentment hidden in her bones. After getting to know He Xueyun deeper, Zhou Hao realized that she was a noble lady on the surface, but she was a resentful woman in her heart.
Moreover, Zhou Hao felt that He Xueyun was similar to Zhao Yuqin and Nanami Xun, that is, they were wise.
Zhao Yuqin's wisdom is reflected in her decisiveness in making decisions, which may be due to the subtle influence of Mr. Zhao and Zhao Dingzhou. Zhao Yuqin has always been vigorous and resolute in doing things, and at the same time, she has the air of a superior person that few women have. This is because of her ability to
This can be seen from the fact that he was impressed by the talented Shangguan Zongze without any trouble.
The deepest impression of Nanami Xun's wisdom on Zhou Hao was that of poison and sinisterness. Her plots and tricks were carried out quietly and one after another. If it weren't for chance, Zhou Hao would never have discovered and destroyed her plan. Zhou Hao
I feel that the poem "The green bamboo snake's mouth, the wasp's tail and its needle, both of which are good, are the most poisonous to women's hearts" are the best portrayal of Kaoru Nanami.
As for He Xueyun, although she never had the opportunity to display her talents in the He family, she did not participate in the management of Zhongjian Group after marrying into the Xu family. She only opened a small "Dielianhua" for entertainment.
However, Zhou Hao could detect the ice-snow intelligence of this woman from her words and deeds. Furthermore, Zhou Hao had already checked and found that there were eight flower shops in the vicinity of "Die Lian Flower", both in size and location.
"Die Lian Hua" is much better, but "Die Lian Hua" can not fall behind in the competition at all, and its profit is better than the other eight flower shops.
Just like in "Zeng Wenzheng's Family Letter", small things reveal great wisdom. "Die Lian Hua" can be run so well without relying on any funding from the He family and the Xu family. Zhou Hao concluded that He Xueyun's talent is no less than
Zhao Yuqin or Nanami Kaoru.
Looking at the night sky, He Xueyun's smile with a hint of resentment seemed to reappear before his eyes.
"If you were my sister or Kaoru Nanami, I'm afraid you would have figured out a way to get rid of the shackles of the two families by yourself." Zhou Hao said to himself, with the look in his eyes not knowing whether he was happy or sad.
He understood that with He Xueyun's ability, she could definitely break free and leave the cage that imprisoned her. The reason why she was in such a situation today was because she couldn't let go in her heart.
Just like Yue Fei, he obviously had the ability to go straight to the Yellow Dragon and destroy the Kingdom of Jin like a violent wind sweeping fallen leaves, but he was tied back by the twelve gold medals, causing him to "die before leaving the battle, making the hero burst into tears."
tragedy. If he was ambitious enough, he could even bring down the Song Dynasty's ignorant emperor and slanderous ministers and save all the people from dire straits.
The same is true for He Xueyun. It would be fine if He Hongsen treated her well, but He Xueyun still couldn't bear to betray such a father, which led to today's situation.
"It's just that I can't help you now. Since you have entered my heart, I will snatch you back even if you are robbing me!" Zhou Hao smiled softly, but the alloy candlestick on the table was in front of him.
But it was like butter in his hands, twisted and deformed.
I don't know if his personality has changed due to the increase in strength, or if this powerful strength has restored his originally suppressed nature. Today's Zhou Hao has indeed become domineering, and he is no longer as cautious as walking on thin ice in his previous life.
Weakness, as if the edges that had been polished in the previous life have emerged again and become sharper.
In his previous life, Zhou Hao always tolerated people who offended me, but now he has to offend others when they offend me. Sometimes for certain purposes or interests, I will offend even if others don't offend me.
Now that he has a relationship with He Xueyun and has her shadow in his heart, Zhou Hao has made up his mind to snatch her away. But he is very greedy. Not only does he want to get He Xueyun's body, he also wants He Xueyun to treat him wholeheartedly.
Then there are worries about the ties between the two families.
Moreover, Zhou Hao hated He Xueyun's status as a married woman, even though she and Xu Jinsheng were only a couple in name only.
In order to completely get He Xueyun, Zhou Hao has decided to destroy the Xu family.
If the He family takes action, Zhou Hao will not show any mercy. He will beat the He family until he is afraid, beat him until He Hongsen takes the initiative to give in, and even beat him until he personally agrees that He Xueyun will be with him!
"boss."
A tall man appeared behind Zhou Hao. His thick-lined facial features looked a bit eerie in the dim light, and his two brown eyes were as eerie as will-o'-the-wisps.
This man turned out to be Zhou Hao's subordinate at Galaxy Investment Company - Willy Wass.
"Sit down." Zhou Hao did not look back at him, his eyes were still on an unknown place in the distance outside the window.
Willyworth sat quietly opposite Zhou Hao, looking at Zhou Hao's quiet and peaceful face. Just as he was about to speak, he heard Zhou Hao say: "The night view from here is beautiful, isn't it? You have been in Hong Kong for so long,
Have you ever tried to calm down and appreciate it?"
After being stunned for a moment, Willyworth couldn't help but look outside as Zhou Hao said. He saw the bright neon lights and the stars on the night. In an instant, everything seemed to be hazy and turned into a thick glow.
Colorful, blending into the light music flowing in the air.
After a while, Willyworth felt that his impetuous and eager heart slowly calmed down, just like the turbid water, all the sediment and dirt in it settled down, making the water clear again.
"Okay, let's talk."
Zhou Hao's voice brought Willyworth's attention back, and a rare smile appeared on his stern face: "Boss, thank you, I really haven't calmed down to look at Hong Kong, the Pearl of the Orient, for a long time.
."
Zhou Hao smiled and took another sip of Sprite.
Willyworth said sternly: "Boss, as you expected, Xu Jianming, the chairman of Zhongjian Group, really has secret connections with international hedge funds. Especially this month, their capital transactions are very frequent, and
It was very close to the time when the Hong Kong stock market was attacked, so that Xu Jianming is very likely to be one of the gangsters who attacked the Hong Kong stock market, as you said, boss."
"I should have known they were not good news." Zhou Hao said with a faint smile: "I'm afraid Xu Jianming set up an independent fund abroad, and then pretended to be foreign speculators to eat into the Hong Kong stock market with those foreigners."
Willyworth nodded repeatedly: "Boss, you are right. That guy really did this. Fortunately, he is still Chinese. This is no different from treason!"
