After the apartment manager left and she went into her bedroom, she began to make her bed.

It's quite sad to say that Chen Rou's entire house is smaller than the one in Repulse Bay, and her bedroom is even smaller.

Li Xia was actually quite young, only in her early twenties, still a young woman. Although she felt uneasy seeing the window right next to the bed, with a 16-story building outside, she was still a little scared.

But since Chen Rou was staying at someone else's house for free and was still a relative of Chen Ke's family, she naturally had to keep a low profile.

After making the bed, she wanted to express her gratitude to Chen Rou openly: "I've inquired and heard that the monthly rent for any apartment in Hong Kong is seven or eight hundred, or even a thousand dollars. If it weren't for you, I would never have dared to dream of studying abroad here."

The rent for this type of serviced apartment is nearly 2,000 yuan a month. The abnormality of Hong Kong is that people like Han Yuzhu, who have poor investment acumen but are good at business, can still have their descendants enjoy endless wealth just from the returns on their various investments, even if they have been dead for many years.

However, it is quite difficult for young people without a strong foundation to settle down and start a family here.

She had a question on her mind. After resting for a while, it was time for them to go downstairs for dinner. Chen Rou then asked, "Sister-in-law, is Li Gang in Shenzhen recently? Judging from your tone, has he been harassing you again?"

Speaking of this, Li Xia was also quite puzzled. She said, "He has now become a foreign businessman and works at a brewery."

Chen Rou guessed it immediately: "He's a Taiwanese businessman, right? Did he manage to get a Taiwanese businessman's certificate?"

Because the drug dealers in Lijia Village were working with Taiwanese businessmen, they each had a Taiwanese business license.

Currently, the company we are collaborating with in Taiwan is the largest brewery in the region.

Chen Rou speculated that the Bamboo Union gang, Li Da Quezi, and the brewery had a legitimate import and export order. However, after obtaining the legitimate order, they planned to smuggle drugs in and out. In order to smooth things over, they had Li Gang, who was good at building relationships, stay at the brewery while they worked overtime to produce the goods, and eventually the two parties would meet up.

Of course, Chen Rou wouldn't tell Li Xia any of this.

She has a gift for Li Xia today, and she also wants to tell her to keep it safe.

It wasn't anything else, just a Motorola flip phone. I opened it, then pulled out the phone numbers I'd saved for Li Xia—hers, Secretary An's, the apartment management's, the school's—and found the categorized landline for the Nie family's security department, Song Yuanchao's pager. I had to explain to her again who to call if anything happened.

People who didn't experience the first mobile phone probably don't understand how convenient electronic products are.

Li Xia, having seen quite a bit of the world, exclaimed in amazement as she held the tiny phone: "This thing can actually make calls anytime?"

Chen Rou slapped the phone into Li Xia's hand and said, "You must hide it well, because these small phones have just been launched in Hong Kong and there are many motorcycle gangs that specialize in snatching them from people."

In a few years, the same will happen in mainland China. There will be a period where motorcycle enthusiasts will be scrambling to buy small mobile phones.

Li Xia picked up the small phone: "Okay, I'll definitely hide it well."

After having a meal with her mother, Chen Rou originally planned to take her to the hospital to see Wan Daozai and Xiao Juanzi.

But since Li Xia felt it would be better for her not to see Xiao Juanzi, Chen Rou stopped taking her along.

Knowing that she was new to the area and unfamiliar with the place, he let her figure out how to buy groceries and cook dinner on her own, and buy herself the necessities. After Chen Rou drove to the Hong Kong Sanatorium & Hospital, she left the car at the entrance, took the elevator, and went upstairs to find Wan Daozai by herself.

It wasn't a coincidence, but rather, in that era, young people in both Taiwan and Hong Kong shared a common object of admiration: Tokyo. At the same time, the things that young people in Tokyo liked to do were also regarded as the standard by them.

As Chen Rou exited the elevator, she happened to run into the Tokyo motorcyclist, who was limping into the elevator with a cane in one hand and a cast on his leg. Although the person helping him was a stranger, Chen Rou remembered that the person should be a servant of the Wu family.

That means that after he was beaten last night, Wu Binghao's family, who deals in seafood, rescued him and took him to the hospital. But he had a bone injury, so he should have been on the 7th floor, in the orthopedics department. Why did he go to the 17th floor, in the cardiology and pulmonology ward?

Chen Rou glanced back and saw that the motorcycle rider's hand was hanging very low, so she just passed by.

As soon as she arrived at Wan Daozai's door, she heard Xiao Juanzi giggling, while Wan Daozai was bragging about something. She stopped and heard Wan Daozai say, "I'm not bragging, but back in the day on Mount Akina, there was a sharp turn every 100 meters, and each turn was 180 degrees. But I can make hairpin turns one after another, you believe it or not?"

Whether he was bragging or not, Xiao Juanzi nodded in agreement: "Yes, I believe you!"

The Taiwanese guy was about to continue bragging when he looked up and exclaimed, "Wow, where did this pretty girl come from?"

After not seeing her for a few days, Xiao Juanzi had become much more lively. She quickly stood up and said, "Miss Chen, let me pour you some water."

Chen Rou asked with a smile, "Is Juanzi tired from staying in the hospital?"

Xiao Juanzi paused for a moment, but Wan Daozi said, "That sounds awful! Everyone calls her Juanjuan!"

Xiao Juanzi smiled slightly, and Chen Rou, sensing the opportunity, changed her tune, saying, "Juanjuan does sound better."

She noticed a motorcycle key on the bedside table and smiled, "Were there any guests here just now?"

When Xiao Juanzi brought over the water, she noticed that Wan Daozai had suddenly stopped smiling, and immediately became wary.

The Taiwanese man touched his hair, which was falling out in large patches due to long-term malnutrition, looking like dog poop.

He said, "I ran into Koizumi Heiji, a member of the Sumiyoshi-kai, when I visited Tokyo a few years ago."
