Li Baolong's gaze slowly fell on Liu Na, and he began to scrutinize her carefully. He thought to himself, "This woman is no ordinary woman!" Liu Na appeared reserved and aloof, like a flower on a high mountain, unapproachable. However, through that seemingly cold exterior, Li Baolong could vaguely sense the myriad charms hidden deep within her. After all, Liu Na was already in her thirties, a time when women are often at their most sexually active and passionate, a stage in their lives where their emotional and desire needs are often more complex and intense.
Just then, something happened that deepened Li Baolong's understanding of Liu Na. While helping Liu Na clean, he inadvertently glimpsed a sexy lace lingerie and a thong hanging in the bathroom, displayed provocatively; moreover, a vibrator was drying nearby. These two items undoubtedly revealed a hidden side of Liu Na. They seemed to silently tell that this seemingly aloof woman also harbored a restless heart. Perhaps, in moments when no one was around, she would shed her reserve and aloofness, revealing her true self and unleashing her long-suppressed desires and passions.
Soon, the steaming dishes were brought to the table one after another by the waiters. Li Baolong greeted Liu Na with a smile, "Manager Liu, the food is here. Come and try it out and see how the food is." Liu Na smiled back, and the two picked up their chopsticks and began to eat and chat.
Li Baolong took a bite of Mapo Tofu and praised, "Mmm, this tastes authentic, spicy and numbing enough! Manager Liu, when you worked in Hong Kong, you must have often eaten Cantonese food. I wonder if you're used to Sichuan cuisine?" Liu Na gently shook her head and said, "Actually, I really like Sichuan food, and I often went to Sichuan restaurants in Hong Kong to satisfy my cravings. Mr. Li, are you usually very interested in investment?" Li Baolong swallowed the food in his mouth, nodded, and said, "Yes, I've always wanted to make some achievements in the field of financial investment. I think meeting you and Jinguo Securities this time is a very good opportunity."
Liu Na picked up a piece of diced chicken with her chopsticks and said, "The Hong Kong market offers many opportunities, but the risks are also considerable. For those of us in the securities business, we have to constantly monitor the international situation and various policy changes. Have you had any experience with overseas investment before?" Li Baolong smiled somewhat embarrassedly, "No, that's why I need to ask you for advice. My sister and I have some funds, and we'd like to find a reliable project to work on."
The two chatted back and forth, from investments to life, from local customs to personal hobbies. Li Baolong discovered that Liu Na was not only professional in her work, but also eloquent in discussing other topics; Liu Na, in turn, felt that although Li Baolong was relatively inexperienced in investment, he was sincere, enthusiastic, and quick-witted. Unconsciously, the initial awkwardness between them gradually dissipated, and a sense of familiarity slowly welled up, as if they were longtime friends. The private room was filled with their cheerful laughter and conversation.
As their conversation deepened, Liu Na and Li Baolong grew closer. Liu Na began to affectionately call Li Baolong "Brother Long," and Li Baolong naturally started to call her "Sister Na."
Li Baolong asked Liu Na about her background out of curiosity. Liu Na sighed slightly and slowly said, "Brother Long, my ancestral home is in Northeast China. My parents divorced when I was young, and I went to live in Shenzhen with my mother. Later, my mother remarried and married a businessman from Hong Kong who invested in Shenzhen. I went to school in Hong Kong, and that's how I gradually built up some connections. But unexpectedly, my mother passed away ten years ago. In order to stay in Hong Kong, I was desperate and married a local hoodlum. I was young and somewhat attractive at the time, but that hoodlum was useless. His gang leaders would often grope me when they were drunk, and he didn't dare to say a word. Later, in a gang fight, my hoodlum husband was killed, and my hard life finally came to an end."
Liu Na picked up her teacup, took a sip to moisten her throat, and continued, "Without anyone to rely on, I had no choice but to work as a hostess in Hong Kong nightclubs and massage parlors to survive. It was at his shop that I met this man, everyone calls him Uncle Massage. He started out running a bath and massage parlor in Hong Kong, working his way up from a masseuse. He managed hundreds of massage girls, and I was one of them. He saw that I was pretty and had a curvy figure, so he took me in as his mistress. After I got together with him, I tried my best to please him, and luckily he liked me too. He even let me manage his investment and wealth management projects at HSBC in Hong Kong. He had HK$100 million in wealth management products in HSBC; he's a big client."
At this point, a bitter look appeared on Liu Na's face: "However, in the past two years, Uncle Cuo's health has deteriorated. His two wives and six children started fighting over the inheritance, and they didn't like me, constantly ostracizing and suppressing me. I don't have any connections in Hong Kong, so Uncle Cuo could only arrange for me to work at a company in Chengdu. Coincidentally, HSBC Bank and Jin Guo Securities in Chengdu have a business partnership, so I came here to work as a manager of the Hong Kong market department, just to lay low for a while."
As Li Baolong listened to Liu Na's story, he couldn't help but feel a pang of sympathy and sigh at her experience.
After their pleasant conversation, their mutual goodwill grew rapidly. After dinner, Li Baolong drove Liu Na home. When they arrived at Liu Na's building, she got out of the car and, with a grateful smile, said to Li Baolong, "Thank you so much today! You helped me fix the leak and even treated me to such a wonderful dinner. When I have time, I'll cook for you myself." Li Baolong was delighted and replied with a smile, "Then I'll be eagerly awaiting your call, Sister Na!"
Li Baolong drove home, lay down on the bed, and his mind was filled with Liu Na. One moment, Liu Na's tales of her difficult experiences swirled in his mind—her struggles to survive in Hong Kong, her complicated family conflicts, and so on; the next, Liu Na's descriptions of Hong Kong—how open it was, how full of opportunities to make money, how many billionaires were there? Just thinking about it was astonishing. Hong Kong held a huge allure for Li Baolong, and he secretly vowed to himself that he would definitely go to Hong Kong to develop his business and make money if he had the chance. However, he couldn't help but think of Liu Na's sexy and voluptuous appearance, especially when she wore black stockings and high heels. Her figure and charm were simply stunning. A ticklish feeling spread through Li Baolong's mind, and various thoughts intertwined, making it difficult for him to fall asleep for a long time.
