Early morning!
Xuezhixiang leaned against Zhou Chen dripping with sweat, her breathing a little heavy. After a while, she couldn't help but talk about what happened during the day.
"Today..., I didn't expect to meet him in the restaurant..."
Listening to Xuezhi talking about Ah Bao coming to Hong Kong, Zhou Chen was not surprised. Ah Bao's current foreign trade business has been affected and he needs to come to Hong Kong to find opportunities.
He just didn't expect that Xuezhi was even taken out of the Peninsula Hotel by him. During Abao's trip to Hong Kong, he actually met Xuezhi, still in Xuezhi's restaurant.
"You have already said that it was more than ten years ago. How could I care? If I really cared about your past, we wouldn't be together now."
Xuezhi understood what Zhou Chen meant. Zhou Chen didn't even care that she was married or divorced, so how could he care that she had a first love.
Although it was a good thing for her that Zhou Chen didn't care, seeing that Zhou Chen really didn't care made her feel a little uncomfortable.
Women all like men to be jealous of them. She never thought about marrying Zhou Chen, but even if she was Zhou Chen's lover, she still wanted Zhou Chen to care about her.
When Zhou Chen saw that she was silent and looked at her expression, he suddenly understood.
"But I know A Bao, Mr. Bao on the Yellow River Road. Although I haven't had much contact with him, I have heard a lot of rumors about him. He is a romantic figure. I heard that he has several confidantes.
So I think you should be careful when communicating with him, otherwise I will be angry."
Zhou Chen held the treasure in his hand and deliberately showed a wary and suspicious expression.
However, Xuezhi just fell for this, holding Zhou Chen's hand with a smile, letting Zhou Chen play with it, and mouthing assurances.
"No, he and I have become a thing of the past, and now we are just old friends. With you, how can I like anyone else again?"
What she said was not false. Although A Bao was doing very well in his career and she looked at him differently, no matter what, A Bao was the one she had abandoned. A woman would never look at a man she had abandoned.
Probably equal.
If she was not living a good life, she might feel unbalanced in her heart, but now that she is living a good life like Zhou Chen, she will naturally have no thoughts.
Zhou Chen didn't stop moving his hands, and lowered his head to kiss: "I believe in you, so let me reward you well."
Zhou Chen stayed in Hong Kong for more than two months. After the Xuezhi Restaurant stabilized, he left Hong Kong. However, he did not return to Shanghai, but flew to Shenzhen City. After such a long time, the business in Shenzhen City and the north also needed
Let him integrate it well.
Shanghai, Fuxing Road.
Li Li didn't know why she came here. Maybe she was too tired recently and wanted to find a place where she could relax and rest, so she came here unknowingly.
Zhu Mei, who was watering the flowers in the yard, saw Li Li, immediately put down the kettle and walked over.
"Is Miss Li Li here to see Mr. Li?"
"Is your husband back?"
"Not yet. Miss Li, please come in and sit down. My husband has told me that if you come, you can enter his study. Except for himself, only I can go in and clean the study. No one else is allowed to enter."
."
Inexplicably, Li Li felt a little better and showed a natural smile.
"I won't go in until he comes back. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
After leaving Fuxing Road, Li Li took the car directly to Huanghe Road. Zhou Chen had been away for more than two months. In fact, today was not her first time here during this period, but she had never been to the door of the old house before.
She didn't know why, but in such a big Shanghai, the place where she really felt at ease and relaxed was not the old apartment she rented, but Zhou Chen's place.
Several times before, when Zhou Chen drank tea and basked in the sun, she would fall asleep without realizing it. This was something she couldn't do in other places. Even in her own apartment, she would stay vigilant.
Before coming to Shanghai, she never thought that she would have such emotions for another man. The more times and time she had contact with him, the more she discovered that Zhou Chen was different and the more out of control she became.
are attracted.
She obviously came to Shanghai to make money, but something like this happened, which made her already calm heart become troubled again. She didn't know how to describe this feeling, but what was certain was that she didn't hate it.
This feeling of missing someone.
The Shenzhen Nanguo Investment Qiang Mujie team that she has been working with recently is preparing to sharpen its knives on the Shanghai stock market. If it were before, she would definitely be eager to take advantage of the situation to make a fortune, but now she finds that she is actually interested in this kind of situation.
Things are getting a little boring.
Zhou Chen went to Shenzhen City and then to the north. In more than half a year, the business here has provided him with a lot of funds. The situation in the north is becoming more and more chaotic, and more and more people are fishing in troubled waters.
.
But he knows that this is not the most chaotic time there. In a few years, when the ruble depreciates the most, the situation will be even more turbulent.
In this year, a major event that shocked the world occurred on the border, that is, the Great Train Robbery. Even though several months have passed, it is still being circulated, causing a great impact.
After autumn, Zhou Chen, who had been away from Shanghai for several months, finally returned to his old bungalow.
When Zhou Chen came back, Zhu Mei immediately served a large table of food and informed Zhou Chen while he was eating.
"Sir, during the days when you were away, many people came to the house to look for you, and also made many phone calls, including official ones, company calls, and... Miss Li also came several times, but I asked her to
When she came in, she didn't come in."
"I understand. I'll take a rest and let Wang Yuan prepare the car. I'll use it in the afternoon, so I won't make dinner."
"Okay, sir."
After the meal, Zhou Chen went back to his room to rest. He had been traveling back and forth for several months, especially during the period when he went north. Although he didn't do anything important, he was still quite tired from traveling all the way. It was definitely not as good as resting outside.
Rest at your own home.
After three hours of sleep, Zhou Chen felt refreshed and the fatigue left over by the past few months was gone.
Home is a magical place. Although this is not his true home for Zhou Chen, in this world, this is his home, making him more comfortable and secure than any other place.
"Wang Yuan, go to Huanghe Road."
"Yes, sir."
After a few months, I visited Huanghe Road again. Although it was only after four o'clock, Huanghe Road was already very lively, just like before.
As soon as Zhou Chen's car appeared on Huanghe Road, it was immediately spotted.
"Mr. Zhou is here."
In the past, the fool on the Yellow River Road always shouted "Mr. Bao is here". Since Zhou Chen's rise, he has added "Mr. Zhou is here". However, the number of times he shouted "Mr. Zhou is here" is far more.
It's better to say 'Here comes Mr. Bao'.
"Mr. Zhou..."
As soon as Zhou Chen got out of the car, he was surrounded by several people to say hello, and he responded with a smile.
"Mr. Zhou, you haven't eaten yet. Jin Meilin has reserved a private room for you. When will you come over?"
Zhou Chen turned around and saw Lu Meilin who was greeting her warmly. He and Lu Meilin were not friendly, but every time they came to Huanghe Road, Lu Meilin would greet him warmly. Although it was driven by interests, she was indeed more open-minded than others.
You have to save face.
Making money is not shabby.
He waved at Lu Meilin and said, "Save the private room, I'll go there later."
Lu Meilin actually just asked casually out of habit and didn't have much hope, so after hearing Zhou Chen's reply, she was startled for a moment, and then the smile on her face blossomed like a chrysanthemum.
"No problem, Jin Meilin's largest private room tonight must be reserved for you, Mr. Zhou."
Zhou Chen smiled and then walked towards the cigarette paper shop on the roadside.
Lu Meilin yelled at the waiter next to her: "Why are you still standing there? Go get a private room for Mr. Zhou."
When Zhou Chen came to the cigarette paper shop, Jing Xiu greeted Zhou Chen cheerfully through the small window.
"Mr. Zhou, I haven't seen you for a few months, but you are still as handsome and personable as ever."
"You are still as poor-mouthed as before."
"I haven't seen you come to Huanghe Road for a few months. I feel that there is a lot of fun missing on the Yellow River Road. I heard that you went to Hong Kong some time ago and went to make a fortune again?"
"You are quite well informed."
"It's not that I'm well-informed, but everyone on the Yellow River knows that you went to Hong Kong. During this period, I don't know how many people tried to find you, but they all came back in vain, especially the landlady of Zhizhenyuan.
Months ago, she came to inquire about you several times."
Jing Xiu asked with a gossipy face: "Mr. Zhou, can you tell me something? You and Li Li, don't worry, I'm the most stern person."
Zhou Chen glared at him angrily and sneered: "You have a strict mouth. Only money can pry it open. Give me a bottle of soda."
