Chapter 52 Chapter 52 Caressing the calves all the way up...

The hillside villa is far away from the dazzling night view of the port city, standing alone and quietly, hidden in the dense forest that blends with the inky sky.

Cheng Wanting drove home and parked the car in the garage. The woman who got out of the car earlier walked into the living room without waiting for him.

In the light moonlight, the graceful figure swayed in the light green windbreaker that reached the calves. The green stiletto heels stepped on the ground, making a clear crisp sound, and the thin ankle lines were prominent and smooth.

Half an hour ago, Cheng Wanting was still holding it there, and at this moment, the delicate touch still remained between his fingertips.

After parking the car, Cheng Wanting asked Uncle Zhong and the others to go back and rest. When they entered the room, the tip of his thumb and index finger touched each other, and the warmth was still there.

After Lin Keying returned to the villa, she went back to her room and took a rose bath. Then she got out of the bathtub, changed into her nightgown and lay down on the bed.

I just caught a glimpse of the green high heels in the corner out of the corner of my eye, and my body seemed to remember it automatically.

The man placed his large palm on her ankle, clenched his five fingers, and held it tightly, leaving no way for her to escape. His rough fingertips were rubbing...

Lin Keying sat up and looked at the area below her left ankle. There was a black mole at the place where Cheng Wanting had gently rubbed it for a while.

The small mole is conspicuous on Shengxue's skin, black as a drop of ink, and still has an indescribable itchy feeling.

Lin Keying rubbed the location of the mole heavily, wiped off the touch left by the man, and fell into a deep sleep.

The next morning, when the light was dim, Lin Keying got up and Cheng Wanting was nowhere to be seen.

Men are destined to be busy these days, with too many things to deal with.

"Madam." Ah Mei waited for Lin Keying to finish breakfast and then presented her with a dark blue exquisite gift box. "This is what the eldest young master prepared early this morning. He said he would give it to you when you wake up."

Giving gifts early in the morning?

When Lin Keying took the gift box, was she still wondering if there were earrings inside? necklace? Bracelet? When they opened the lid, they saw a silver chain lying quietly in the black velvet.

The slender fingertips picked up the silver chain. The thin silver chain was sparkling with tiny diamonds, and small star pendants hung at intervals, sparkling in the sunlight.

Lin Keying tried to put it on her hand, but found that it didn't fit well.

Until she lowered her head and looked at her feet, she realized that it was actually a pair of anklets.

The feeling of having her ankle held by a man last night seemed to come back again, tightly gripping her and making it difficult to break free. Lin Keying put the anklet back into the gift box and stuffed it into the drawer of her room.

——

Lam Keying went to the home appliance section of a shopping mall in Central and picked out a washing machine and a refrigerator, preparing to give them to Sister Ho's family as gifts for their new home.

The operation of the dessert shop was on the right track and she had almost no worries. Lin Keying was now only concerned about making money and naturally cared about the gifts from her partners.

The washing machine that costs HK$2,000 and the refrigerator that costs HK$2,500 have large capacity and beautiful appearance. They are new models this year. After paying, Lin Keying left her address and asked the mall staff to pack the items and deliver them directly.

Before leaving, Lin Keying caught a glimpse of the bustling scene in the Central shopping mall and couldn't help but look forward to the moment when the Xitian Building would be so crowded.

The investment promotion of Xitian Building is in full swing. The shops on the underground floor are various food areas. The unique ice cream parlors, tea houses, noodle soup shops, roast meat restaurants... of Hong Kong will all be settled in. Similarly, Lin Keying also specially reserved a good location for the fourth branch of the dessert shop.

The first floor is mainly occupied by gold shops, jewelry shops, jade shops and several luxury brands. Lin Keying is planning to invite Hong Kong's three major clothing giants to move in.

Women's wear, men's wear, children's wear, sportswear, shoes...and above that is the company's investment promotion.

There are countless companies of all sizes in Hong Kong. Especially in order to go public, countless companies are registered, listed, and then go bankrupt, repeating this cycle. There is a lot of demand for office buildings.

On the 20th floor, Lin Keying reserved half a floor of property management office for herself. The people she recruited worked in this office management building, and her own office was at the innermost part.

"Boss Lin." Among the newly recruited employees, some with outstanding communication skills were assigned by Lin Keying to be in charge of investment promotion. "Here are the details of the thirteen companies that have been negotiated with."

Taking advantage of the Wan Chai District's already good reputation and the current cheaper rent than the neighboring Central, as well as the gimmick of major brands moving in after the renovation of the Xi Tian Building, the company's investment promotion has been relatively smooth.

Lin Keying scanned the list one by one, confirmed the details with the head of the Ministry of Commerce, and signed, and also asked her about the three major clothing giants in Hong Kong.

"Boss Lin, we have already sent invitations to the heads of the companies related to the Xiang, Wang, and Chen families."

"I know Uncle Xiang." Lin Keying's godfather brought her to meet many big men during the godparents' ceremony. They had a very good relationship. "As for the Chen family, I also have some friendship with the eldest daughter-in-law of the Chen family. You can just be in charge of the Chen family."

"good."

Uncle Xiang, a big boss whom Lin Keying met through her godfather and godmother, was very straightforward and agreed on the same day to let his four major clothing brands move into Xitian Building. The two exchanged a few words. Lin Keying told Uncle Xiang that her godfather and godmother were still visiting Singapore and invited Uncle Xiang to wait for the two elders to come back for tea.

After hanging up the phone, Lin Keying called Chen's eldest daughter-in-law, Song Xiujuan.

Last time, because of the invitation of foreign luxury brands to settle in, Lin Keying and Song Xiujuan had met several times and they had a good relationship. This time the invitation went smoothly.

Song Xiujuan did not put on airs. After all, this was a building that had been inspected even by foreign brands. She also saw that Lin Keying was a capable and competent person, so there was naturally no harm in having her own clothing line enter the market.

"I asked Song... to have someone arrange a connection with you." Song Xiujuan hung up the phone and sat in the office, sighing that she almost let the cat out of the bag.

Without hanging up the receiver, Song Xiujuan pressed the button to make another call and waited for the other party to answer.

After a few beeps, the call was connected, and Song Xiujuan opened her mouth and asked her nephew's name: "Songxian, are you used to living in the hotel?"

At this moment, Chen Songxian, who is at the Qitian Hotel in Wan Chai District of Hong Kong City, is standing in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling window in the luxury suite, looking at the blue sky and white clouds outside the window, the hustle and bustle of traffic, with a smile on his face.

"Aunt, I'm living well, don't worry." Chen Songxian is sweet-mouthed and good at dealing with things, and he is no problem at coaxing elders. "You and uncle must not tell anyone about my return to Hong Kong City, not even my grandfather, my father, my mother, and my sister."

My cousin really has the upper hand. If other family members knew about this, the Cheng family would definitely know about it. And then I don't know how my cousin would punish me for sneaking back from South Africa.

A week ago, Chen Songxian secretly returned to Hong Kong from South Africa. Even when he arrived, Cheng Wanting and his group were still on the return ship.

Chen Songxian returned to Hong Kong faster than his cousin!

Having suffered the hardships of studying on the ship to South Africa, and having spent a month in Africa before, how could Chen Songxian continue to endure such boredom?

During the ten days of studying in the room, he made a careful plan, pretending to go to South Africa voluntarily, but actually returning secretly the next day after landing in South Africa.

The person in charge of the clothing company sent by the Chen family to South Africa is essentially still a member of the Chen family. No matter how much Cheng Wanting greeted him, he could not resist the intimidation and inducement of Chen Songxian, a member of the Chen family, and he burst into tears.

The local person in charge agreed to cover for the spoiled Chen Shao, and Chen Songxian returned to Hong Kong early in the morning of the second day after arriving in South Africa on a giant ship of another major global shipping company in the port city.

The Hong Kong city's shipping market is now divided into two major forces, one is Universal Shipping, which is headed by Cheng Wanting, and the other is Global Shipping, which is controlled by British capital.

The ship they boarded was a huge British-owned ship, and my cousin couldn’t find out, nor could he have imagined that Chen Songxian had planned everything so thoroughly!

He planned to stay quietly in the port city for a few months, eating, drinking and having fun, as long as he was not discovered. After all, Hong Kong City is so big, and he wanted to avoid it, so how could his busy cousin meet him?

When four months were up, he showed up in Hong Kong again and said he had returned from South Africa, without anyone noticing!

Everyone in the Chen family doted on Chen Songxian, but the ones who doted on him the most were his uncle and aunt. They had no children and their only daughter was married, so it was not an exaggeration to say that Chen Songxian was half their son.

Faced with the nephew secretly contacting and asking for help, Song Xiujuan and her husband softened their hearts and agreed.

In order to repay his aunt's help, Chen Songxian took the initiative to take on a job for her: "Aunt, I live across from the Xitian Building. I will be responsible for the business. Don't worry, I will definitely share your worries."

After hanging up the phone, Chen Songxian looked out the transparent and clean window at a magnificent dark blue building. He planned to go there in the next few days to sign the entry contracts for several clothing brands under the Chen family.

++++

After agreeing on the business with two of Hong Kong's three largest clothing companies, the Xiang family and the Chen family, Lin Keying went to the Central Shopping Mall for some shopping, and drove home in a black Bentley carrying a few bags of autumn and winter clothes.

Tonight, Cheng Wanting still didn't come back for dinner. The man was busy with work, so he asked Yang Minghui to call and report back.

Lin Keying naturally plays the role of a perfect virtuous wife, allowing her husband to work well.

It's a good thing to work hard, earn more money and not like to go home.

After all, these days, whenever Lin Keying thought of Cheng Wanting, she felt her ankles getting hot, as if the residual warmth of his palms still remained.

After dinner, she took a walk in the mountains. Lin Keying now maintains a good schedule. After taking a bath, she prepared to have a beauty sleep.

In the bathtub is peach shower gel poured by Ah Mei, a new scent that Lin Keying just bought at the mall this afternoon.

The shower gel blended with the water, soaking every inch of Lin Keying's skin, making her whole body smell fragrant, like a sweet peach.

At nine o'clock in the evening, Cheng Wanting had not returned yet. Lin Keying guessed that her husband would be busy with work today and would not come home, so she simply sat cross-legged on the sofa and continued reading Jin Yong's serial novel.

At 9:25, the night was as dark as ink. When Cheng Wanting returned to his villa halfway up the mountain under the stars and the moon, he opened the door of the living room and saw the woman on the sofa at a glance.

The white nightgown loosely covered the woman's body, and her snow-white skin seemed even whiter than the pure white, just like a blooming gardenia.

The woman was reading a novel with great interest while holding Ming Pao. She leaned against the sofa cushion with her legs curled up on it. With her occasional movements, the tassels at the end of her nightgown swayed slightly, revealing a hint of sexiness in her laziness.

Cheng Wanting's gaze moved slowly, from the woman's face to her undulating curves, and finally landed on her bare ankles.

"Don't you like the present I gave you on Monday morning?"

The man's sudden voice startled Lin Keying so much that she looked towards the door: "You're back? I thought you were busy with work and were staying at the company."

As she spoke, she retracted her feet and pulled her nightgown down, not wanting to talk about the anklet.

"Well, I just finished dealing with an urgent task." Cheng Wanting sat in the corner of the sofa, his eyes still fixed on her. "Don't you like that silver chain?"

"No! I like it very much." How could Lin Keying say she didn't like it?

The silver chain is a good one. In her previous life, she was also keen on wearing necklaces and bracelets, and had even tried anklets.

However, she always felt that there was some inexplicable danger in the gift from the man beside her.

"Then why don't you wear it?" Cheng Wanting was wearing the dark red suit with gold dragon pattern that he wore on the day he got the marriage certificate, which formed a sharp contrast with Lin Keying's white lace nightgown.

"I like it so much that I want to keep it as a treasure." Lin Keying praised herself for her quick thinking.

Cheng Wanting chuckled. This smile of the usually serious man actually had a hint of romanticism: "I have been wearing the tie you gave me, the suit you gave me, the clothes you picked out, and even the floral shirt you bought. I gave you a silver chain, and you just want to keep it as a treasure?"

Lin Keying keenly sensed some danger and quickly changed her words: "Then I will wear it tomorrow."

"No need." Cheng Wanting made a prompt decision, and said with a decisiveness that was quite resolute in the business world, "Wear it now, I will put it on for you personally."

The beige sofa sank slightly, and the man in the dark red suit lifted the white lace nightgown a little and slowly grasped the woman's ankle.

Lin Keying was speechless after hearing the man's words. She couldn't find a reason to refuse and could only watch as the man untied the anklet buckle and wrapped it around her ankle.

The buckle was fastened again, fitting perfectly. The slender silver chain touched her fair skin, and the cold touch made Lin Keying tremble.

Just as Lin Keying was about to retract her foot and quickly put on the anklet and go back to the house, the man with quick eyes and hands grabbed her ankle again as soon as she moved.

The man clenched and unclenched his hand, and was actually gently stroking the silver chain, without any physical contact with Lin Keying.

The silver chain around her ankle brought a slight coolness, but Lin Keying felt the rising heat of late autumn.

The man looked at the silver chain intently, stroking it slowly with his slender fingers, only occasionally brushing past Lin Keying's skin unintentionally with his fingertips.

A strange touch came over her, and before Lin Keying could react, it disappeared in an instant.

Lin Keying watched the man's fingers rubbing the silver chain, then gradually moving down to gently caress the small black mole below her ankle. It was like an electric current passing through, and Lin Keying's arms, which were supporting her side, felt a little weak.

However, the next second, even breathing became difficult.

The man's bony fingers moved up from his ankles, slowly caressing his soft calves...

Lin Keying's heart trembled, and she suddenly pressed down the man's rebellious hand.

Because of the force, the man's hand left a deep mark on the soft calf, a blend of pure white and wheat color, deeply sunken.
