Chapter 10 Chapter 10 Doing Whatever You Want and Losing Control
The next day.
Dr. Huo returned to the hospital and Tingting's operation went smoothly.
The moment the green light came on outside the operating room, Sister He, her husband Asheng, and her son Aqiang finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Lin Keying was also happy.
Sister He and her family were very grateful to Dr. Huo and Lin Keying. Dr. Huo put down his scalpel and also went to see Lin Keying.
"Ms. Lin, I really want to thank you this time." Dr. Huo mistakenly entered the scene of a gang fight and was eventually kidnapped to perform surgery on the gang leader. Because of these people, he did not dare to go to the clinic or hospital for treatment of his injuries, for fear of being discovered by the police.
Lin Keying had no idea that life here was comparable to that of Hong Kong dramas. It was too eventful and bizarre, even screenwriters wouldn't dare to write it this way.
"Doctor Huo, I was just trying to ask, but I still have to thank you..."
"Dad!" A tall figure suddenly appeared in the corridor outside the ward. A young doctor who looked somewhat similar to Dr. Huo walked up to the two of them and said, "Is this Miss Lin?"
"Yes, Miss Lin is my savior." When Dr. Huo was released, he heard that a wealthy man had asked for his release. Although I don't know the specific relationship between Miss Lin and the rich man, I am truly grateful to her and I don't want to ask too much.
Lin Keying felt a little embarrassed at being flattered, and felt like she was offering flowers to her fiancé, a giant Buddha.
Fortunately, Dr. Huo was a skilled doctor with a busy schedule, so he left soon. However, Dr. Huo Jr., who was also interning at Queen Mary Hospital, talked to her and walked towards the hospital gate.
What surprised Lin Keying even more was that Dr. Huo spoke Mandarin well and could communicate with her fluently.
"Doctor Huo, you don't have to see me off." Lin Keying felt that the Huo family was probably a medical family, as both the father and son were polite.
"Ms. Lin, my name is Huo Huachen. To express our gratitude, my family would like to invite you to a simple meal at 8 o'clock tomorrow night at the Peninsula Hotel. Do you have time?"
It was hard to refuse Dr. Xiao Huo's kindness, so Lin Keying had to accept it, thinking that it would be a nice experience to dine at the Peninsula Hotel, the most upscale hotel in Hong Kong Island.
This reminded Lin Keying that she would have to return to the mainland soon, so she should experience and enjoy the Hong Kong life as soon as possible.
Perhaps after staying in Hong Kong for half a month, Lin Keying received another thousand Hong Kong dollars from Mrs. Hua.
"Minghui said it was the eldest young master's order." Mrs. Hua couldn't figure out what the eldest young master meant. Miss Lin had clearly been saying that she would return to the mainland in a while. Her plastic Mandarin came into play again, and she had difficulty communicating with her, "Keying, what are you doing in Hong Kong?"
Lin Keying did not pretend to be polite and accepted it directly. Thinking that she was about to get a huge sum of money, she naturally decided not to cause trouble for her fiancé.
Her fiancé hated this engagement and didn’t want anyone else to know about it, she understood!
"I'm here to visit relatives and will be leaving soon." Lin Keying didn't speak very good Cantonese, so she wrote simplified Chinese characters on a piece of paper.
Fortunately, Mrs. Hua seemed to understand the general idea.
With another sum of living expenses, Lin Keying once again thanked her generous fiancé in her heart, and then went to the Central Shopping Mall to buy an electronic game console for three hundred Hong Kong dollars.
There are no convenient and compact mobile phones and computers nowadays, and even palm-sized video game consoles are rare.
The price in Hong Kong City is not low, and it is unique in the mainland, so it needs to be transported from Hong Kong City to be sold.
It was a rare opportunity to have a relatively modern form of entertainment, and Lin Keying was addicted to it, playing a game that seems quite childish in later generations. A marble kept rolling through operations, and finally she bypassed all the levels and passed them.
Electronic game consoles are expensive, costing three hundred yuan each, but if they can be shipped back to the mainland, they can easily be sold for thousands of yuan each.
After all, things are valuable because they are rare.
Lin Keying's mind moved slightly.
After shopping in the mall and buying some clothes, necklaces and bracelets, Lin Keying passed by a roadside barber shop. She looked at the poster of a bright and charming female star from Hong Kong with big wavy hair pasted on the wall and couldn't help but be moved.
Before lunch, Lin Keying came out of the barber shop and got the most fashionable hairstyle nowadays.
The fluffy black hair spreads out like seaweed, and the tail undulates like waves, showing the beauty of curves.
The barber shop clerk stared at the customer again and again, and then made up his mind: "Pretty girl, I won't charge you for this business, but you can take a picture of the poster for us and put it here."
The customers are just like the female stars on the posters, they are simply living signs!
However, Lin Keying only understood the word "pretty girl". After listening to Tony's chatter, she paid the money and left.
She is already hungry.
In the lobby of the Hong Kong Mandarin Hotel, Lin Keying came in and had a sumptuous Cantonese meal.
Roasted pigeon, shark fin, abalone...the food in the 1980s was indeed authentic, with good color, aroma and taste.
However, when a few wealthy uncles sat down at the next table and excitedly ordered a plate of shark fin rice, Lin Keying looked in the direction of the voice and guessed that this man must have made a fortune by speculating in the stock market.
As expected, the conversation between the few people did not hide the fact that the group of people were uncles buying vegetables from the nearby vegetable market. The uncle who treated them was very successful in stock trading and made a fortune of 5,000 Hong Kong dollars overnight, so he invited his friends to eat shark fin rice.
Hong Kong dramas once again reflected reality. Lam Keying watched the drama with great interest and ate her food even more deliciously.
The roasted pigeon is crispy and tender, with firm skin and meat. The braised abalone is bright in color, tender and fresh in texture, with an excellent taste, making it worthy of being the king of seafood.
Lin Keying was very satisfied with the meal, and before leaving, she used the money given by her fiancé to pack a bowl of chicken wings and sent it to the downstairs of the Huanyu Building.
It is Lin Keying’s mission to always keep in mind the plot.
After all, she only found out from Secretary Yang’s notification yesterday that the compensation for canceling the engagement had been raised to 600,000 yuan, which was still several steps short even if Pinxixi cut it.
The security guard did not recognize that this was the rustic woman who visited a while ago. Seeing her exquisite dress and noble temperament, he hurriedly contacted Secretary Yang.
When Secretary Yang hurried to the first floor to take away the take-away lunch boxes, Lin Keying was nowhere to be seen.
"Master, Miss Lin sent you some food." Secretary Yang handed over the lunch box and a note without even reading the words on it.
[Master, work is important, but health is more important. Remember to eat on time.]
Secretary Yang felt sorry for Miss Lin's infatuation. How could her own young master be so warm to her? But Miss Lin seemed a little different. After all, the young master had really eaten the food she brought him a few times before.
Cheng Wanting, who had looked unhappy these past two days, as if he had not slept well and exuded an unhappy aura from head to toe, said coldly, "Take the things out and deal with them."
Being disturbed by people who shouldn't have appeared in his dreams, and even allowing them to do whatever they wanted, Cheng Wanting felt depressed and not in a good mood.
Secretary Yang thought to herself, as expected, the little bit of patience and uniqueness that the young master had towards Miss Lin finally disappeared.
"Ms. Lin is so kind, isn't this a bad idea?" Secretary Yang muttered to himself.
"You actually know how to speak up for her." Cheng Wanting pinched his eyebrows, looking annoyed. An anxious and out-of-control emotion that had never appeared since he grew up was spreading.
And the source of everything needs to be cut off.
"It's just worthless stuff, so just dispose of it." Cheng Wanting looked at the secretary with a serious expression, "But you keep talking about Miss Lin all day long. What kind of drug did she give you?"
Secretary Yang: "..."
Secretary Yang felt so wronged that he couldn't say anything. Was he the one who was thinking about Miss Lin all day?
Obviously...
Never mind, you're the boss.
"Young Master, I just think that Miss Lin's kindness is so precious." Secretary Yang admired and was grateful to Lin Keying for persuading the Young Master to eat on time several times.
Cheng Wanting sneered, determined not to allow the figure that shouldn't appear in his dream tonight, so he said fiercely: "What do you think of a woman who wants to seduce me after the engagement is cancelled?"
Secretary Yang: ...
I dare not say much.
I've never seen you care about any woman before. No matter how outrageous or bad their behavior was, you turned a blind eye.
Why are you still complaining now?
Cheng Wanting felt more at ease, as if he had finally thrown all the dirty things out of his mind and heart, and instantly returned to his usual cold-blooded and ruthless businessman self.
"Liu Zhigao and I will discuss the Wharf issue at the Peninsula Hotel tonight. Remember to arrange for someone to spread the news tomorrow."
Secretary Yang also put away his gossiping thoughts and quickly agreed.
——
Lin Keying sent some chicken wings to her fiancé as a token of appreciation, and went to Queen Mary Hospital in the afternoon to discuss the specific details of wholesale clothing delivery with Sister He and Brother Xiong.
It must be much easier for each party to guard one side than for Hui people to come to Hong Kong for wholesale from the mainland.
Lin Keying planned to invest in opening a store and share the profits with the two of them. With the huge market, there would be basically no obstacles.
Sister He now trusts and appreciates Lin Keying, especially after hearing her talk about the future plan of selling clothes, she naturally responded, "Sheng and I only have a little energy and time, we just want to earn some hard-earned money, how can we ask for any dividends."
The couple were both honest people. Ah Sheng also waved his hand and said, "Ms. Lin, we will help you. It doesn't cost much."
Lin Keying knows very well that the most taboo in doing business is uneven distribution, especially when the business is booming. If one party is paid low, it is easiest to cause people to become unbalanced and even cause the cooperation to collapse.
"Sister He, Brother Sheng, you don't have to refuse. This is not hard labor. It is very important to select the clothes, count and transport them to the ship. You deserve a 30% profit."
Tingting, who will be discharged from the hospital next week, was delighted to hear this and raised her hand actively, saying, "Sister Keying, if my parents don't agree, then I'll do it. I have more than 30 yuan in the piggy bank for New Year's gifts, and I can give it all to you."
Lin Keying's eyebrows curved: "You've put all your wealth on the line. I'm under a lot of pressure."
There was constant laughter in the ward. Sister He invited Lin Keying to have hotpot at her home next week after Tingting was discharged from the hospital.
This did indeed make Lin Keying feel a little reluctant, as she was about to leave Hong Kong City.
After all, Secretary Yang mentioned last time that the ship to the mainland would be next week.
She nodded politely, and in the blink of an eye, there was a knock on the ward door. Xiao Huo took off his white coat and came to pick up Lin Keying to go to the Peninsula Hotel for dinner.
Along the way, Lin Keying asked about Dr. Huo's parents, and Dr. Huo just said that his parents would go there by themselves. But when they arrived at the Peninsula Hotel, Dr. Huo and his wife did not show up.
The beautiful sound of piano resounded throughout the quiet western restaurant, and the waiters pulled out chairs for the guests.
Seeing that there were men and women dating all around her, and that in front of her the western-style dining table was laid with romantic roses and burning tall candlesticks, Lin Keying couldn't help but look at Dr. Xiao Huo.
"Doctor Xiao Huo, your parents..."
Doctor Huo was in high spirits, with a warm smile on his face. He personally filled Lin Keying's glass with red wine and handed it to her: "Ms. Lin, please forgive me for lying to you. An hour ago, I asked my parents not to show up here tonight."
Lin Keying took the red wine glass and put it on the table, and asked curiously: "Why?"
"I want to have dinner with you alone." Dr. Xiao Huo said sincerely, "Let's formally become friends."
Lin Keying was amused by Dr. Xiao Huo's frankness.
......
The Peninsula Hotel is the most prestigious hotel in Tsim Sha Tsui, Kowloon. It is luxurious and upscale, and many wealthy people are frequent visitors here.
Cheng Wanting and Liu Zhigao, who had acquired 18 million shares of Hutchison Whampoa, agreed to discuss the matter in detail here.
As soon as he walked into the Peninsula Hotel, he noticed something strange.
In the western restaurant on the left, there was a figure that looked both familiar and unfamiliar.
In the dream, the woman who sometimes wore a tattered floral jacket and sometimes a green suspender skirt was now wearing a bright red dress. The dress was tight around her waist, outlining her graceful curves. The hem of her skirt spread out like petals and fell naturally at her side. Only her white ankles could be vaguely seen.
There is a small, round black mole on her ankle, which makes the surrounding area look even whiter.
A head of long wavy hair fell charmingly behind her shoulders, making the woman's smiling face seem even more delicate than the flower.
"Young Master, Liu Zhigao has arrived and is waiting for you upstairs." Secretary Yang saw that the young master did not move forward and hurried over to remind him.
In just a short while, why did the young master have a gloomy face and look unhappy?
