Lin Benjian expressed his feelings to Chen Dong.
"I'm really looking forward to getting back to work as soon as possible, I can't wait, it's just a pity..." he said, sighing repeatedly.
Chen Dong smiled and said, "Then hurry up and finish your business so you can come over soon. I also look forward to working with you as soon as possible."
"Yes, that's what I think too. Please rest assured, I will make the most of the time and try to get it done as soon as possible. The week I mentioned is the longest possible timeframe."
Although Lin Benjian's no-show left Chen Dong somewhat disappointed, it also gave him more free time.
This was a good opportunity for him to meet Zhou Huimin.
If possible, he would like to take her out to play.
Of course, he had something even more important to do: to provide his girlfriends with more bodyguards and strengthen their protection.
After all, Zhang Xiaoqiang has not been caught yet.
Although he had just received Li Jiacheng's ransom and was unlikely to commit another crime, anything could happen. If other kidnappers saw how lucrative this line of work was, they might take the risk, and that would be disastrous.
After all, Zhou Huimin is not only a famous movie star, but also a high-ranking executive at Huaxia Star Company. She has a well-known reputation, and what if she were targeted by some fool...
At the same time, protection for his sister's family was also strengthened.
I would feel guilty if either my sister or brother-in-law were to be harmed.
I brought them to Hong Kong so that they could enjoy life and experience the world, not so that they could be harmed.
Of course, protection for Yammie Lam should also be strengthened.
As a good friend and someone close to her, she also needs to protect him/her.
After all, she had suffered a tragic experience in her previous life.
In this life, although he has changed the trajectory of her fate, he fears that the world's corrective power is too strong and will always try to push the fate of related people and things back to their original trajectory.
Just like when Yammie Lam was in a car accident recently, this world always seems to inflict enormous harm on her.
And these are things I absolutely do not want to see.
Chen Dong believes, or rather, is willing to work hard to change the fate of his friends and make their lives better.
Putting all his thoughts aside, Chen Dong called Zhou Huimin and, upon learning that she was at the company, rushed over there.
Vivian Chow waited for him to come over so they could have dinner together.
Although they had only been separated for a short period of time, she was still extremely happy to see Chen Dong again.
Zhou Huimin obediently followed behind Chen Dong and went with him to a famous noodle shop nearby to eat noodles.
Hong Kong is a hub for famous cuisines from all over the country.
Of course, Cantonese cuisine is the most famous here, and Chen Dong can eat it to his heart's content, but his favorite food is noodles. Fortunately, there are quite a few noodle shops here, and the taste is decent.
Zhou Huimin didn't particularly like noodles or similar foods before.
However, after eating noodles with Chen Dong many times, she gradually came to like the taste of noodles and could appreciate its deliciousness more and more.
However, it doesn't matter what she eats; as long as she can be with Chen Dong, she feels especially happy and at ease.
There's a saying: "Love makes even water taste sweet!"
She feels that this is the state she is in right now.
Of course, for some people, this situation is just talk. If they really reach the point of desperation and have a very poor economic foundation, then even if the two people originally had a good relationship, various crises will eventually arise. As the saying goes, "When poverty knocks at the door, love flies out the window."
At this time, Zhou Huimin had not only become a high-ranking executive at Huaxia Star, but her acting career was also reaching a new level. More importantly, she also had a wealthy husband, Chen Dong.
What she cared about most was that Chen Dong, this rising star in the business world, doted on her immensely.
This makes her infinitely luckier than those female celebrities who try every means to marry into wealthy families.
Many actresses who marry into wealthy families do not live well, either because of disagreements with their husbands' families on various issues, or because they are treated like caged birds.
Nowhere else can you find someone like Chen Dong who gives her both security and care, while also allowing her the space to pursue her career and freely develop her potential.
It can be said that she has now almost achieved a fulfilling life.
The two held hands and went to the noodle shop.
This is the peak dining time.
Many people choose to take away, while others wait in the store and rush to sit down if there is an empty seat.
Seeing this, Chen Dong couldn't help but recall the scene he had witnessed in his previous life in mainland China.
Around noon, countless employees rushed out of the various buildings to eat at nearby restaurants.
Because there are many office buildings but relatively few restaurants, these employees have to wait on the side during peak hours.
Once the people in front of you have finished eating, quickly sit down and finish your meal. Then, either go back to your office to rest or take a walk downstairs to relax.
The dining scenes Chen Dong saw in Financial Street were different from those here.
Those low-level employees mostly eat fast food.
Those who have become part of the upper and middle classes frequent luxury hotels and upscale restaurants.
They wore expensive suits, carried briefcases that smelled of leather, drove luxury cars, and lived a life of extravagance and debauchery.
However, maintaining this lifestyle is not so easy.
Large companies are also full of deceit and backstabbing; success is not easy, but failure can happen in an instant.
Wasn't his past life a living example?
Before you know it, someone has sabotaged you and kicked you out of the decision-making circle.
