Most of the items in this collection room are treasures that Han Yuzhu was unwilling to send to jewelry stores, and the rest are Nie Rong's collection. As for people, no matter how brave they are, they will be afraid of death. When faced with death, no amount of gold and silver is as important as life.
So halfway there, the old man tapped his cane and said, "Let Uncle Ming accompany you to see the rest. They're just toys; you can't take them with you when you die. Now, seeing them only makes me feel annoyed, and I don't want to look at them anymore."
Chen Rou is a police officer who will protect any innocent citizen. She said, "With us here, you will be fine."
The old man, being suspicious, thought his daughter-in-law was trying to bewitch him and trick him into giving away his fortune. He smiled and said, "No matter how good you are to me, it won't all be yours. It's already been distributed. You can just listen to the will when the time comes."
Although Han Yuzhu has been gone for a long time, each of her clothes is worth a fortune and has historical significance. If they were put at an auction, the clothes of Hong Kong's top female merchant would be highly sought after, not to mention her complete sets of jewelry.
But these things had already been allocated and assigned when Han Yuzhu passed away.
As for the sapphire jewelry that Nie Rong specifically gave her the key to, Chen Rou guessed that Han Yuzhu must have left a will, but Nie Rong objected and they couldn't agree on the distribution rights, so it was left behind.
Given the old man's bias, he probably intended to leave it for Nie Yao's wife.
When a person is about to die, their voice is mournful and their words are kind. It was only when he was about to die that he was willing to return it to Han Yuzhu.
Chen Rou accepted the key without refusing it. And for the first time, she suddenly realized that since the original body, who was destined to die in her previous life, was gone, she no longer needed to worry about whether the original body would return.
What she should do is live well, carrying Han Yuzhu's dreams and the original owner's hopes.
Wearing that precious, dazzling sapphire necklace to welcome her return was Han Yuzhu's wish. Since the original owner could no longer do it, it should be done by her. This was a kind of help unique to women, and she had to do it.
After escorting Nie Rong, who was so eager to proclaim to the world that he would die for the Nie family, upstairs, Chen Rou went to play with the dog.
When Nie Zhao called her, it was almost dinner time. He had a business dinner at the Nie family's hotel. Judging from his tone, he wanted to invite her to come along. However, he only asked tentatively. When he heard that she didn't want to eat out, he changed his mind and said, "How about 7:30? Wait for me downstairs at the Nie family's building."
"Your social engagements aren't important, are they? Why are you out so early?" Chen Rou retorted.
The drinking culture she was familiar with was that the boss couldn't leave until the meal was over, but of course, the people she was familiar with were all small business owners, not people like Nie Zhao... He simply said, "I showed up for 5 minutes, that's enough."
Yu Sir was still sharpening his knife. For him, even if it was just in his own hotel, appearing in public for a full five minutes would be enough to scare him to death.
It was already evening. Chen Rou was used to going out alone, and she was driving Nie Yao's red Porsche 911. Since they had arranged to meet downstairs at Nie's company, she parked her car downstairs.
A short while later, she saw two doormen and a group of young men in black suits run out. Looking back, she saw a Bentley and a Mercedes van parked behind her. She knew that whenever she went out, it was like a mother hen leading her chicks, with a whole bunch of them. Her husband was about to come out.
Sure enough, a little while later, Sam and Hank came out first. Even though there was nothing outside, they put on their sunglasses and ignored everyone, spreading their arms to block out all sides. The revolving door turned again, and her greedy and cowardly husband strode out.
He headed straight for the Porsche, opened the passenger door, got in, and said, "Your clothes and car match perfectly."
He had suggested going shopping for clothes, and Chen Rou was worried that dressing too plainly wouldn't do her any good for him, so she wore a white sleeveless T-shirt and shorts, along with sunglasses, to make herself look a little less disheveled.
Oh, and she was also wearing a necklace, a watch, and had put on makeup; today she looked every bit the part of a wealthy socialite going out.
"Which way?" Chen Rou asked.
Nie Zhao fastened his seatbelt first, then asked, "Would you like to go shopping for clothes?"
"To be honest, I don't want to, but if the clothes affect the mission, I'll buy them if I have to," Chen Rou said.
Nie Zhao smiled and pointed ahead: "Follow the Bentley, I'll take you to a good place."
Even at this point, Chen Rou still didn't know where Nie Zhao was planning to take her.
The Bentley was driven by a driver she didn't recognize, and the driver clearly knew where he was supposed to go, driving straight through the Cross-Harbour Tunnel and directly to Tsim Sha Tsui.
Chen Rou had walked this road some time ago, on the day she ambushed Xiang Tiange.
Nie Zhao sat next to her, and since getting on the bus, he had been on the phone with a mobile phone, speaking in English. He was probably talking about business. Chen Rou, whose English was slightly better than Song Yuanchao's, managed to understand the gist of what he was saying. He was talking about the construction of the overall computerized control system for Hong Kong Airport, as well as coordination issues between the airport and the military.
Of course, Xiangjiang Airport couldn't stay closed for too long. It began to gradually resume operations the day after Nie Zhao had his surgery and went to the ribbon-cutting ceremony despite his injury. However, the current airport will be completely closed in 1998. In the outlying islands, there is another super airport, the largest in Asia, under construction. When Chen Rou needs to transfer flights in the future, it will be at that airport.
She suspected that Nie Zhao was going to take her to the airport, because if they continued walking, they would reach Sham Shui Po, which was the British military base in Hong Kong. As a strategic point, before the handover, the airport was located not far from the military camp.
Sure enough, after about twenty minutes of driving, on one side was the seaside avenue, with the fragrance of coconut palms, and on the other side were low, dark old residential buildings. A huge plane took off with a piercing sound and flew over the tops of those low residential buildings. It was so close that Chen Rou had the illusion that if she stood on the building, she could reach out and touch the plane.
