Chen Dong woke up and found himself reborn in 1990, a time when gold was everywhere. Carrying the regrets of his past life, he started by selling tea eggs...
Financial crises, oil crises, gra...
Together? Back?
Annie's heart fluttered, and two blushes rose on her pretty face, making her look absolutely stunning.
"Really? Really?"
Chen Dong nodded, glanced sideways at Ma Guoliang, who was pretending to be a serious person, and said.
"Manager Ma, if you don't have anything else to do, why don't you come along?"
"I?"
Ma Guoliang could hardly believe what he was hearing.
Chen Dong asked Annie to go back with him, which he could understand.
A lone man and a lone woman might just spark a romance.
Why would they ask me to go along too?
Could it be that Chen Dong has some kind of unusual fetish?
Do you enjoy being watched when you're in love?
In a short time, Ma Guoliang thought about many things.
It's said that rich people have peculiar tastes, and it seems that Chen Dong is no exception.
Annie blinked her beautiful eyes, which were now slightly misty.
this......?
Boss, what exactly are you trying to do?
Chen Dong didn't think much of it and continued, "The mainland is developing very rapidly now. Come with me and see what development opportunities are available."
Saying that Ma Guoliang should go with him to see the development opportunities in the mainland was just an excuse used by Chen Dong.
Who in this world understands the future better than him, a reborn person?
Ma Guoliang is a client manager at HSBC's Asia Pacific headquarters.
In a sense, this title is quite impressive.
It will be much easier to handle some things than for Chen Dong to do it all by himself.
"Okay, Mr. Chen, I'll go back and pack my luggage in a bit."
"There's no need for that much trouble, it'll only take a few days."
As he spoke, Chen Dong glanced at Annie and asked, "Did you bring your makeup bag?"
Anne nodded.
She had the cosmetics she needed for touch-ups in her handbag.
"That's fine then. As for clothes and stuff, I'll go with you to buy them when we get there. Don't worry, I'll cover all the expenses."
Annie felt a sweet warmth in her heart upon hearing this.
Is my boss planning a sweet date with me?
Annie automatically ignored the fact that Chen Dong was referring to "you all," not "you."
But so what?
In any case, this is a good start.
Chen Dong was quite satisfied with their reactions.
Chen Xi, Chen Bei, and their two younger sisters are still children, so Chen Dong doesn't feel awkward accompanying them to buy clothes.
Xiao Xinyi and Chen Nan are both adults. It would be inappropriate for me, as their son and younger brother, to accompany them to buy clothes.
Outerwear and shoes are fine, but if people start criticizing underwear, things can get a bit awkward.
Anne was dressed very fashionably, exuding a mature and sophisticated vibe, giving off a feeling of meeting a Hong Kong or Taiwanese celebrity.
This shows that, at least in terms of aesthetics, Annie is at the forefront of fashion, and even Chen Dong, a reborn person, can't find much fault with her.
If Annie knew that Chen Dong had ulterior motives for shopping with her, I wonder whether she should cry or laugh.
soon.
Several people came out of the elevator.
At this moment, two newly purchased Mercedes-Benz luxury 9-seater vans were parked on the road outside the apartment building.
Upon seeing Chen Dong and his group, the new driver immediately opened the car door and invited them to get in.
After the group got into the car, it slowly started and headed towards Victoria Peak.
Half an hour later.
Two minivans were parked in front of the villa.
When Chen Dong saw the new plaque next to the gate, he showed a hint of surprise.
The plaque bears two large, elegant characters: "Chen Mansion"!
This scene gave Chen Dong a headache.
"Boss, how are you? Are you satisfied? This is my housewarming gift for you."
"Many Hong Kong tycoons' mansions have similar plaques."
Annie walked up to Chen Dong, leaving a fragrant scent in her wake, and said with a hint of smugness, oblivious to the strange expression on Chen Dong's face.
Instead, he got more and more excited as he talked, with an expression that seemed to say, "Come and praise me!"
This plaque cost her over ten thousand Hong Kong dollars, and she had the craftsmen work overtime to make it.
Thinking about it now, I still feel a little pained.
Annie's average monthly salary is only HK$20,000, and this plaque cost her almost a month's salary. As for Chen Dong, she has only been working for a few days, so where would she get her salary?
However, Annie didn't think anything of it in order to make Chen Dong happy.
Chen Dong couldn't help but say, "Well, Annie, let's change your name!"
This plaque is not bad; both the materials and the workmanship are excellent.
Unfortunately, the name is a bit too eye-catching.
The name "Chen Mansion" sounds similar to "submitting," which makes it sound arrogant and domineering.
These days, maybe it's nothing.
In later generations, especially in the internet age, some people like to make a mountain out of a molehill.
Although Chen Dong could disregard these considerations and have nothing to fear, he couldn't help but think about his family's feelings.
While money can silence public opinion, it cannot silence the gossip of the people.
Why not take this opportunity to change the name of the signboard?
Even if someone discovers his intentions one day, he will still be standing on the side of righteousness.
Chen Dong's first thought was the phrase "Dunyi Residence".
The Great Way is fifty, Heaven evolves into forty-nine, and man escapes to one.
He is a reborn person, also known as the one who has transcended death.
It gives you the feeling of living a secluded life, whether in the countryside or in the city.
only.......
The idea had barely crossed his mind when Chen Dong rejected it.
He just wanted to keep a low profile, but keeping a low profile doesn't mean retiring. If he retired, what was the point of his rebirth?
Having been given a second chance at life, besides seeking revenge against Wall Street's capital, what else should I do and leave behind?
Hong Kong? Known as one of the Four Asian Tigers.
This dragon is not that dragon, especially since Chen Dong is a true Chinese, a descendant of the dragon.
Then let the world see that the sleeping dragon of the East has awakened!
Awakening? A dragon?
Chen Dong thought of something and said to Annie.
"Let's call it 'Xinglongju', which means prosperity."
Annie's eyes lit up, and she praised, "Boss, this is a good name. When we do business, we value prosperity and success. I'll have someone make a new signboard later."
Chen Dong nodded, patted Annie's arm, and said apologetically, "Annie, I'm sorry to have disappointed you."
"I'm fine, don't worry about my feelings. Besides, a good name makes living here more comfortable..."
Annie felt a surge of sweetness in her heart, her pretty face flushed, and her voice grew softer and softer.
Is this what it feels like to be cared for by someone you like?
And the owner's hands were so warm...
Chen Dong smiled and didn't say anything more. He'd find a chance to make it up to her later.
At that moment, the villa gate opened.
A man in his fifties, who looked like a butler, came out, followed by ten servants dressed in various styles.
The butler stood in the center, with ten servants standing on either side. They bowed to Chen Dong and shouted in unison.
"Welcome home, sir."
