In front of the huge floor-to-ceiling window of Villa No. 3 in Repulse Bay, Lin Huowang sank into the large and soft sofa and let out a long sigh.
Several days and nights of intense research in the Kangsheng Pharmaceutical Laboratory, coupled with the tense situation he had previously been dealing with the complicated affairs following the acquisition of Hong Kong Land, had almost drained all his energy.
So... this time, he slept for a whole day and night, almost thirty hours.
The feeling of emptiness after waking up from such a deep sleep was now replaced by an extremely strong feeling of hunger.
The British housekeeper Linda is worthy of being a professional servant of the nobility in the UK. She provides meticulous service and knows exactly what her master needs most.
There was no need for Lin Huowang to give any instructions. As soon as Lin Huowang woke up and opened his eyes, Linda started to make arrangements.
She silently directed the servants to file in, and the large mahogany dining table in the restaurant was soon filled with a wide variety of food.
The top-quality Wagyu beef is grilled to perfection, exuding an enticing aroma of fat.
Next to it were half a dozen freshly opened Gillardeau oysters, drizzled with a special red wine vinaigrette.
There are also juicy Australian lobster sashimi, exquisite Hong Kong-style dim sum, and buttery baguette slices...
This feast can be said to be a fusion of Chinese and Western cuisine, extremely luxurious yet extremely delicate.
Lin Huowang was barefoot on the thick carpet, wearing a comfortable and expensive velvet robe. At this moment, he no longer had the perfect and elegant demeanor of "Kobayashi Tenwang" in front of others.
After all, if anyone has slept for so long without eating, their stomach will growl with hunger.
Lin Huowang is now just an ordinary person who has been hungry for a long time.
Seeing such a sumptuous meal prepared by housekeeper Linda, there was no need to talk about politeness and image.
He walked up and picked up a crispy roast duck leg, and started to bite it without any hesitation. The fragrant juice slid down the corners of his mouth, and then he slurped it back into his mouth.
The feeling of satisfaction from having his hunger filled by the delicious food quickly rose in his body. At the same time, the instinctive desires that had been suppressed for a long time began to stir in his young and vigorous male body.
He had been separated from his wife Liu Rumeng for such a long time, and he only had a brief romantic encounter with Lu Ruirong in the hotel not long ago.
Now that so many days have passed, Lin Huowang has become a little addicted to it. Coupled with the hunger in his body, even after it is satisfied, this desire will also intensify.
Without hesitation, he picked up the landline phone in the corner of the living room and dialed the number left by Lu Ruirong.
This phone was not a home phone. After all, Lu Ruirong's family could not afford to install a phone at all, so the one she left for Lin Huowang was a public phone that was transferred from a convenience store next to her home, which was located under a crowded tenement building in Tsim Sha Tsui.
At this time, Lu Ruirong had just returned home from training at the TVB building.
In this old tenement building, my family of six squeezed into such a small room, and the kitchen and dining room were semi-open, located in the adjacent corridor.
The family set up a small table, sat on small plastic stools, and ate dinner together.
Some people may think this is shabby, but almost every household on this street is like this, and everyone is used to it.
"Arong! Eat! Eat more. You've been training hard. Hang in there for a few more days. Perform well in the finals!"
Although Lu Ruirong was selected for the Miss Hong Kong finals at this time and received one million Hong Kong dollars and an apartment from Lin Huowang, she was not in a hurry to move into the apartment. After finishing her TVB training, she still returned to her parents' small house and left her phone number as a public phone on the street.
After hearing the ideas summarized by the Miss Hong Kong contestants in the training room today, Lu Ruirong returned home feeling somewhat anxious and worried, eating the various delicious dishes her parents had prepared for her with tasteless taste.
What I was eating was clearly the signature roast goose that my mother had specially packed from the newly opened tea restaurant, but it tasted like chewing wax.
There were also pepper and salt squid, boiled shrimps, etc. on the table. In the past, the family could only eat such food once during the Chinese New Year and other festivals.
On weekdays, it was either some pickles or leftovers that his mother brought back from the restaurant where she washed dishes. Everything was mixed together, with only a few pieces of meat, and mixed with the saliva of the customers. Lu Ruirong felt sick just thinking about it now.
But there was no way. She grew up eating such food. Born in such a family, she was lucky to have enough food to eat since childhood.
Because of the last time Lin Huowang gave her the million Hong Kong dollars, she generously gave her parents 100,000 Hong Kong dollars to improve the family's life and food, so now they have to order food from the restaurant every day.
When Lu Ruirong's parents saw their daughter coming back, they were all smiling. They praised her for her success and looked forward to her results in the Miss Hong Kong finals in two days.
Even without a place, he's already earned so much money. If he really performs well in the finals, what will happen? Wouldn't he be like a phoenix flying up the tree?
Some neighbors who passed by, even those who had been mean and sarcastic to their family before, began to smile and curry favor with them. They knew that Lu Ruirong had been selected for the Miss Hong Kong finals and seemed to have been noticed by a wealthy man recently, so they gave her a lot of money.
However, facing these vain scenes that she had longed for in the past, Lu Ruirong felt very uncomfortable at this moment. She kept thinking about that night when she accepted Xiao Linsheng and Zhu Lingling rejected Xiao Linsheng. She used to think that she was so smart and wise, but now Zhu Lingling has become stupid.
