Chapter 16 Chapter 16 Throwing it on the bed, covering it...
Lin Keying could clearly feel the hand around her waist tightly gripping her waist, as if with a fierce look. The bony fingers seemed to dig into her skin, controlling everything with great control and not allowing any resistance.
The man in front of him revealed a side he had never seen before. There was fire burning in his dark pupils, devouring people's reason bit by bit. He was like a cunning demon king, staring at his prey with eyes lingering on his face inch by inch.
From eyes, nose tip to red lips...
Lin Keying's heart suddenly tightened, and she keenly smelled some kind of ambiguous danger. Under the man's burning gaze, she gently pursed her lips.
"What did you call me just now?" The man raised his hand and pinched Lin Keying's chin, forcing her to raise her head, and stroked her flaming red lips with his thumb.
The fingertips with thin calluses scraped past, as if scraping Lin Keying's heart, and she couldn't help but tremble.
She managed to regain her sanity and spoke carefully, "Brother Songxian."
It should be correct. She did not inherit the original body's memory. She only barely caught the way her original body addressed her fiancé, mostly "Young Master" and occasionally "Brother Songxian".
Seeing the man's thin lips slightly raised and revealing a hint of smile when he heard these three words, Lin Keying felt relieved and thought that there should be no problem.
I just don’t know what happened to my fiancé tonight, or what upset him? In the past, he was cold but polite, always graceful and noble, but at this moment, he was surrounded by a dangerous aura.
It makes people unconsciously afraid and want to retreat away.
Lin Keying thought so and did so.
Unfortunately, when she moved back a little, the hand on her waist tightened even more. The smile on the corner of his lips was like a sneer, with a hint of sarcasm. Even the words that came out of the man's mouth were cold: "So you came here for the engagement, and you like... your fiancé, and you adore your fiancé."
"Yeah." Lin Keying's personality is like this, but when these words come out of her fiancée's mouth, she always feels creepy.
The magnetic and deep voice that originally fell into my ears now sounded like a gust of cold wind, making me shudder.
The man leaned in closer, swallowing up the already thin air between them. The moment their breaths touched, his strong gaze pierced into Lin Keying's eyes, and every word he said hit her ear: "How much do you love and like me? Tell me."
Lin Keying's eyelashes trembled slightly. It was difficult for her to tell what her fiancé was feeling at the moment. Why did he want to listen to her confession when he had such a stern look on his face?
However, a man of insight is a wise man. I will be leaving tomorrow, and the right thing to do is to spend the night peacefully.
"We had an engagement when we were little. No, I liked you before we had an engagement. Later, the engagement was made and I became your child bride. I was very happy. Even in the more than ten years since we were separated, I have always remembered our engagement. I only like you and only want to marry you..."
As Lin Keying's confession came out word by word, the air around them seemed to become thinner and thinner, so much so that even breathing became a little difficult.
Cheng Wanting listened to the woman in front of him expressing her love for her fiancé bit by bit. Her tone was sincere, and her bright and clear eyes were full of admiration and love. His body felt like it was burning like a flame, spreading from his chest to his entire body, almost burning out his sanity.
"Do you still remember your childhood?" He looked at Lin Keying inconspicuously, his breath as cold as ice.
"No...I don't remember much. I was only five or six when you left, and the situation was chaotic afterwards. I also fell and hit my head, so I can't remember many things from my childhood. But I clearly remember that my fiancé was Brother Songxian. I remember that you were good to me when we were young, and I wanted to marry you, so I came to find you." Lin Keying felt that this topic was dangerous and that she might be exposed if she was not careful, so she quickly changed the subject.
She braked in time and played the role of a considerate, sensible and tactful child bride: "But I know I am not worthy of you, Brother Songxian. You are a rich and noble man in Hongcheng, and I am just an ordinary person who has nothing and can do nothing. Don't worry, I will keep this love in my heart, and I will not disturb you or pester you...ah——"
Before she could finish her words, she felt dizzy and faint, and Lin Keying screamed in shock.
Her fiancé hugged her and threw her on the big bed in the luxurious lounge of the cruise ship. The soft mattress supported her body and she didn't feel any pain at all. But the next second, the man covered her and pressed her tightly.
Heavy breathing sounds suddenly rang out, and Lin Keying's eyes widened in shock, unable to believe what the fiancé who in the original book should have hated child brides so much was doing.
"Brother Songxian..."
"Since you like it so much, can I fulfill your dream?" The fiancé's voice was hoarse, as if he had been patient for a long time. There was fire in his eyes, and he looked like a wildfire. His sharp jawline became as sharp as a knife, as if it was going to pierce into flesh and blood.
Lin Keying couldn't believe what she heard. How could her fiancé say such a thing, and how could he be in such a posture with her...
Just as she was still in shock and saw the man staring at her lips and about to lean over, there was a rapid knock on the door, breaking the ambiguous atmosphere in the room.
"Young Master, the master is looking for you and asks you to come over!" Secretary Yang was helpless. The master was extremely dissatisfied with the young master's behavior of abandoning Miss Li and not caring about her. He was almost furious.
Lin Keying finally breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this. She watched the man on her stand up, straighten his collar and cuffs, and look down at her condescendingly like a wealthy tycoon.
"I'll ask you one last time." The man looked serious, with only the slight rise and fall of his chest and heavy breathing revealing some of the unrest beneath his cold exterior. "Do you like... me?"
Lin Keying lay on the bed, looking up at the man, and nodded slightly, following her fiancé's words, "Yes."
"Remember what you said tonight." The man looked at her deeply.
After saying that, he left, leaving Lin Keying in shock.
......
Yang Minghui was ordered to personally escort Miss Lin back to his villa in Mid-Levels. The eldest young master had to deal with officials of all ranks in the Governor's government and wealthy businessmen tonight. At the same time, he was being closely watched by the old man Cheng Guanjie, so it was really difficult for him to escape.
But before leaving, Yang Minghui only listened to the eldest young master's instructions and could not figure out the deeper meaning.
"Erase all records of Miss Lin's entry into Hong Kong City and her activities in Hong Kong City... Also, in the future, all matters related to Chen Songxian, his engagement, and the Chen family must not be mentioned in advance in front of Miss Lin. Also, the name Chen Songxian must not appear in any newspaper, magazine, or TV news in Hong Kong City." Yang Minghui still remembered the fierce look in the eldest young master's eyes when he gave the order, "Remember, not a single word is allowed to be mentioned."
Even though she didn't know why, Secretary Yang, who always kept the eldest young master's orders in mind, listened to Miss Lin in the car.
"Secretary Yang, didn't you say that I would take a boat back to the mainland tomorrow?" Lin Keying wondered if everything that had just happened was a dream.
I must be hallucinating, I must have heard it wrong, I must have seen it wrong.
How could 800,000 Hong Kong dollars disappear without a trace? She's going to take the money back!
Yang Minghui's eyelids jumped, and he quickly comforted her: "Miss Lin, you are just joking. The young master is reluctant to let you leave now."
Lin Keying: "..."
Is it okay to use the word "willing to give up" to describe the young master?
Lin Keying returned to the villa halfway up the mountain in a daze and lay on the bed in a daze, trying to sort out the current situation.
The original plan to return to the mainland with a huge fortune and start a wonderful retirement life as a wealthy woman suddenly changed!
Lin Keying couldn't understand why her fiancé suddenly changed his mind! Hasn't he always hated child brides? Now I want to stay...
Distressed, sad and confused, Lin Keying only drank a bowl of bird's nest when Mrs. Hua brought her a midnight snack, as she really had no appetite.
——
Being in a bad mood, Lin Keying slept soundly, as if only sleeping could help her forget her troubles.
No matter how big the matter is, you have to keep yourself well-rested before you can fight.
By now she should have gotten up, eaten, packed her luggage and set off to the port to catch a boat.
But now, everything is gone!
Faint voices came from the living room. Lin Keying was still unwilling to give up and prepared to try again. She rushed out in a heroic and high-spirited manner, ready to confront her fiancé.
Are you a man or not?
How can you not keep your word?
In the living room, Cheng Wanting had just finished breakfast. He looked neat and stylish in a white shirt. As he was about to tie his tie, his hand paused when he caught a glimpse of a woman in a white ruffled nightgown rushing out of the guest room on the first floor.
"You go down first." Cheng Wanting turned his head and said to Yang Minghui.
Secretary Yang didn't dare to get involved in the affairs of the eldest young master and Young Master Chen's child bride, so he ran away quickly.
As soon as Secretary Yang left, only a man and a woman were left in the huge living room, looking at each other from a distance.
"Come here and help me tie my tie." Cheng Wanting simply loosened the tie that had just been wrapped around his neck.
Lin Keying cursed in her heart, was she being treated like a feudal little maid?
But thinking of the rights that she had not yet fought for, and not being prepared to have a falling out with him, she just moved slowly towards him.
Having had the experience of tying a tie for her fiancé once before, Lin Keying did it very easily this time, especially with the man leaning over to cooperate, she was able to do it with ease.
But perhaps because they had had intimate contact last night, the two of them were standing very close to each other at this moment, and her fiancé leaned closer, lowering his head slightly to accommodate her height, and Lin Keying felt that the air was a little thinner.
Fortunately, the torture did not last long. After a beautiful Windsor knot was tied, the man put on his dark gray suit and raised his hand to adjust his cufflinks while whispering, "I'll be back for dinner tonight."
"Oh." Lin Keying had no idea why the man said this. She was still brainstorming on how to get the money and return to the mainland.
"You can go out, but you are not allowed to see that intern again." Cheng Wanting straightened his clothes, with an extraordinary demeanor, and spoke as if giving orders, "Wait for me to have dinner together tonight."
"Ah?" Lin Keying blinked, her curled eyelashes looked like two small brushes, as if she couldn't believe what she heard.
What on earth is my fiancé doing!
Is this the conversation that's supposed to be happening between us?
The next second, Lin Keying heard the man speak again: "The villas developed by Hongji Industrial will be on sale soon. Minghui will accompany you to choose one in a few days. You can choose whichever one you like."
"Ah?" Lin Keying's eyes widened again.
Cheng Wanting was in a hurry to go out for a meeting. He looked at his watch and could not waste any more time. "Didn't you want to buy Acer's unit last time? A 50-square-meter unit is too small and too noisy. A villa is better."
It took Lin Keying a while to digest the meaning of his words after the man left. He wanted to give her a villa? !
——
Yang Minghui obtained the internal information of the newly developed villa complex before Acer Industrial started selling it. The wealthy groups in Hong Kong and City always give each other face. When the head of the Huanyu Group wanted to order a villa, Acer naturally agreed and allowed him to choose first.
"Ms. Lin, this group of villas is in a new development area. It's not too far from your current villa. It only takes about 20 minutes to drive there." Yang Minghui introduced enthusiastically, vowing to do what the young master asked. "The new development area has a better location, a wide field of vision, and a unique mountain view."
It was the first time that Lin Keying had the privilege of obtaining internal information on buying a house and having priority in choosing. She glanced at the model of the villa complex in front of her and saw that it was surrounded by mountains and shaded by green trees. Only beautiful white mansions stood among the greenery. It was magnificent and shocking.
The villa has a spectacular and beautiful appearance, smooth lines, avant-garde and fashionable design, and is equipped with a garage, outdoor swimming pool, garden... everything you need.
Yang Minghui was worried that Miss Lin didn't know how to choose a house. Just as he was about to introduce the characteristics of each location, Miss Lin analyzed the lighting, orientation, house type, location, supporting facilities of the house...
After the analysis, Ms. Lin had already narrowed down three villas. Finally, she chose House No. 8 in Phase 2 of the Mid-Levels Villas based on the view from the bedroom.
Secretary Yang took a look at the various conditions of House No. 8 and decided that he would definitely choose it!
"Secretary Yang." Lin Keying was choosing a villa for the first time, and her heart was beating fast. She then asked again to confirm, "Did the young master really ask me to buy this villa?"
Yang Minghui nodded: "Of course. If Miss Lin has made her choice, it can be registered under your name in the next two days. Oh, by the way, Miss Lin will stay in Hong Kong for a long time now, so she needs to apply for a Hong Kong hukou."
Lin Keying was dizzy and pointed at the villa model and asked, "How much is this villa?"
“The price of a villa in the middle of a mountain ranges from 3 million to 3.5 million.”
hiss!
Lin Keying was suspicious about what was wrong with her fiancé. Instead of giving her a villa worth three million Hong Kong dollars, he was going to send her back to the mainland with one million Hong Kong dollars!
Are you crazy!
Yang Minghui was efficient and completed the registration for Lin Keying in Hong Kong without her having to show up.
Hong Kong City has been implementing a resistance policy in the past few years. As long as you are lucky enough to arrive in Hong Kong City, you can queue up to get a Hong Kong City household registration. Therefore, the illegal immigrants come here at the risk of their lives and property just for the dream of seeing a port city.
Naturally, there was no need for Lin Keying to queue up in person when Yang Minghui was doing things. With a household registration certificate in hand, the ownership of the villa halfway up the mountain was also transferred to Lin Keying's name.
Holding the household registration page in one hand and the real estate certificate in the other, Lin Keying was still in a daze, wondering how she ended up in Hong Kong and owned a mansion worth three million!
In the past few days, her fiancé only came back for dinner on the second night of the cruise, and disappeared for the next few days. When Secretary Yang was handling the property rights issue of the villa for Lin Keying, he mentioned that the eldest young master was called away by the master.
It was just that day that the property certificate of the villa was obtained and the fiancé also came back.
Mrs. Hua prepared a table full of delicious dishes, vowing to give the hard-working young master a good rest.
At the dinner table, Lin Keying sat face to face with the man. Because she was troubled by something in her mind and confused about the current situation, she was thinking and secretly looking at her fiancé, and thus forgot to eat.
"What are you thinking about so absent-mindedly?" Cheng Wanting picked up a piece of roast goose meat and put it into Lin Keying's bowl.
Watching her fiancé picking up food for her, Lin Keying's heart was beating fast. She ate the goose meat in small bites, biting the crispy golden skin with a crunching sound, and the aroma filled the air. The goose meat inside was coated with sauce and slow-roasted, which was not fat or greasy, but tender and juicy.
Lin Keying ate the goose meat, licked her lips with the tip of her tongue, and asked cautiously, "Master, what is our relationship now?"
"What do you think?" Cheng Wanting's eyes fell on the lips of the woman sitting opposite him. Her face was plain and attractive without any makeup, and her lips were rosy and pink. They were not as flaming as the red lips that night, but they were as tender as peach blossoms. "That night you kept saying who I was to you? Have you forgotten so quickly?"
While eating, the powder added a hint of oiliness, which was licked lightly by the nimble tip of the tongue and flashed away in an instant.
Lin Keying was surprised. Although you are my fiancé, haven’t you always wanted to cancel the engagement?
Do you really want to fulfill the engagement now?
It’s bad, it’s bad, why is the plot of the original book ruined!
"Why?" Cheng Wanting keenly noticed the sudden change in the woman's expression, and his face turned stern. "You don't want to? Could it be that everything you said that night was a lie?"
"Of course not." How could Lin Keying dare to admit that her 'affectionate confession' that night was a lie!
"You don't look very happy." Cheng Wanting scooped two spoonfuls of Qibao soup into Lin Keying's bowl.
"No, I...I'm very happy. I was just too excited at the moment and couldn't believe it." Lin Keying tried hard to force a smile.
There was nothing wrong in having a relationship with such a handsome, wealthy and generous man, but the change came too suddenly. Lin Keying was a little confused and found it difficult to adapt for a while.
But no matter what, her personality in the previous month was like this, how could she dare not be happy at this moment!
Cheng Wanting looked at Lin Keying deeply and said meaningfully, "Well, remember what you said that night. It was you who kept saying that you liked me."
That night, Lin Keying was called to the study room to study again.
In just a few days, everything had changed and the fiancé wanted to accept the engagement.
When other people date their fiancé, it should be under the moonlight and have candlelight dinners, but when you date, it's just making up lessons?
How can dating be a way to make up for lost time?
Sitting on the sofa, Lin Keying became even more distracted. How does dating work?
In her previous life, Lin Keying was devoted to her career and worked diligently after graduating from university. The men around her were ordinary but confident. She once broke up with someone just after they started a relationship because of his impatient attitude. Later, when her career gradually stabilized, Lin Keying was introduced to blind dates by friends and colleagues, but the blind dates were so weird that it is hard to describe.
At that time, Lin Keying joked with her friends that it would be better to work hard to make money so that she could have handsome young men in the future.
During the ten years when her career was booming, she had no interest in love and was an absolute master of talking big. Although she lacks practical experience, she is an emotional mentor to her friends. She is very knowledgeable when it comes to giving relationship advice, and it seems that all the emotional problems in the world can be analyzed clearly by her.
She can comment on the handsome guys on TV, and admire the handsome guys with good figures and good looks that she sees on her phone, but she really doesn't have any practical experience!
Lin Keying quietly turned her head to glance at the man next to her. His facial features are handsome and his eyes are full of nobility. In addition, he has an extraordinary aura from years of experience in the business world and among wealthy families. He is truly more attractive than the handsome guys on TV, movies and short videos.
I think a man like this must be very capable.
Lin Keying, who was secretly slacking off, was caught again. Her gaze met Cheng Wanting's. The man said helplessly, "What are you thinking about?"
"I wonder if you've dated many times?" Lin Keying blurted out.
As soon as she said this, Lin Keying felt a little regretful. Was she too bold?
The man beside him didn't seem angry, but he didn't have the glib response that most men would have to such a question. He just said calmly, "This is the first time."
Unbelievably focused and candid.
Lin Keying: "..."
Her doubtful eyes fell on the man again. Lin Keying thought of the various rumors on the Internet. With her fiancé's wealthy family, how could he really remain a virgin until the age of 28? Could he have some hidden illness?
As a result, Lin Keying figured it out instantly!
The wealthy tycoon who suffers from a hidden illness is worried about his privacy being exposed, so he uses his child bride from the mainland as a cover-up. That three million worth of villa might just be the hush money!
She is so professional!
Seeing the woman in a trance, wondering what she was thinking about, her expression became more and more excited, her eyes brightened up, Cheng Wanting tapped the table with his fingers, reminding her: "What are you thinking about now?"
"No, no!" Lin Keying was shocked. She didn't dare to say anything that would hurt men's dignity. Cricket, the big boss, just picked up the tea on the coffee table and gulped down two gulps guiltily.
It was only after I drank the tea and enjoyed the rich aroma that I realized something was wrong.
Lin Keying subconsciously glanced at the teacup in her hand. The pattern of a flying dragon in the sky on the cup clearly revealed an answer - this was her fiancé's teacup!
Putting down the teacup as if throwing away a hot potato, Lin Keying buried her head and dared not look at the man next to her. It was so embarrassing.
"Study hard." Cheng Wanting kept looking at the woman in front of him who seemed to want to bury her head in the sofa. He raised the corner of his lips and picked up his teacup again. He glanced at the light red lip print on the edge and took a sip calmly.
——
Recently, the eldest young master returns to his villa in Mid-Levels every day. Some time ago, he only came back to live at night, but recently he has developed a habit of coming back most of the time for dinner.
This made Uncle Zhong and Sister Hua very happy.
The servants in Villa No. 5 in the Mid-Levels Villa were collectively excited. The eldest young master was back, and they had a place to use their skills again. The salary was not in vain!
But after a while, everyone in the villa noticed something was wrong.
At the dinner table, the eldest young master would pick up dishes and serve soup to Miss Lin. Every morning, he would ask Miss Lin to help him tie his tie. The servants in the villa were so shocked that their eyes almost popped out.
Uncle Zhong and Mrs. Hua whispered in private: "Could it be that the young master has really come to his senses? Is he dating Miss Lin?"
When the eldest young master announced that they didn't need to consult him for any major or minor matters in the villa, and could directly ask Miss Lin for her opinion and let her make the final decision, the two finally confirmed - the eldest young master was really dating Miss Lin!
There isn't much to do in the villa, and it's basically all taken care of by the servants, so you don't need to worry about anything. However, some adjustment plans require the approval of the villa owner.
Now, this task falls on Lin Keying.
"Ms. Lin, the weather is getting hotter and hotter. It's almost midsummer. Do you want to change the curtains? Lighter colors are perfect for summer." In the past, the eldest young master seldom came here, and it was difficult for the servants to get approval if they wanted to carefully build the villa.
"Ms. Lin, these are the dishes for next week. Abalone is provided by Dingxianji, shark fin, beef, goose and pigeon meat are provided by Liji Restaurant, and the best adenophora, dendrobium, scallops and cordyceps are selected by Yangji Store. Bird's nest..."
"Ms. Lin, this is the total expenses and account details of the villa last month, a total of 7,856 yuan."
Lin Keying looked at the various information that came in. Uncle Zhong and Mrs. Hua asked her to instruct on each matter one by one and asked her to make the decision herself.
Her fiancé was too busy. He was either in meetings or discussing business all day long, so Lin Keying had no choice but to force him to do something.
After all, he took someone's mansion worth three million, so it's only right that he help out.
Lin Keying wrote on the paper: "Change the curtains. It's time to choose fresh colors for summer. I want a white gauze curtain and a sky blue curtain for my room... As for the young master's room, choose green... The dishes will be the same as before, and a few more dishes..."
After writing, Lin Keying would try to explain it in her not-so-fluent Cantonese. Fortunately, Uncle Zhong and Mrs. Hua were good-tempered and would not laugh at her pronunciation. They would even patiently correct her occasionally.
After everything was settled, Lin Keying just wanted to sigh that owning a villa is just the beginning. It is not easy to hire servants and do the daily maintenance and management.
And the expenses are staggering.
Cheng Wanting returned home from the group. During the break in dinner, he noticed that the woman opposite him had a better appetite today. She had finished most of a plate of fried crabs from Typhoon Shelter, but she still seemed to be unsatisfied.
"Uncle Zhong said you've been busy all afternoon. Are you tired?" As he spoke, he poured her another bowl of soup.
Mrs. Hua’s specialty is the Poria cocos and lotus root soup, which is fresh and delicious.
"Yes, there are a lot of things to do in the villa, and someone has to make the decision on everything. It's so hard for me~" Lin Keying thought that since everything had been done, she had to take credit for it.
Having worked in the workplace for ten years, she knows very well that the biggest taboo is to do things quietly without anyone knowing.
Cheng Wanting was amused by her complaining and taking credit for her work, and the corners of his lips curled up involuntarily: "Thanks for your hard work."
Since he had handed over the decision-making power for all matters in the villa, Cheng Wanting also did not forget to give his girlfriend household expenses: "Keep this card, and use 100,000 yuan for pocket money every month. If it's not enough, tell me."
Lin Keying: "..."
Fiancé, you are too generous!
Lin Keying was in a good mood and had thought it through completely. When her fiancé no longer needed her as a shield, she could sell the villa worth three million and add the pocket money she saved every month to bring back hundreds of millions to the mainland.
Just think of it as a job in Hong Kong! It’s so easy anyway!
Lin Keying smiled brightly and thanked her fiancé sincerely, not forgetting to get closer to him: "Brother Songxian, you are so nice~"
It feels so strange to call him "Young Master" every day. I have to call him "Brother Songxian" from time to time to seem closer.
Just as the words "Brother Songxian" came out, the man opposite suddenly changed his expression. The air around them seemed to suddenly become quiet, and it was as cold as ice under the scorching sun.
"The name Songxian is no longer used. Call me Wanting." Cheng Wanting's eyes flashed coldly, "Don't mention it again in the future."
Lin Keying blinked, wondering as if she understood, maybe the rich businessman and his family fled to Hong Kong and changed their name? After all, it is possible to change your appearance by changing the place.
She nodded, exhaled sweetly, and rolled the two words on the tip of her tongue: "Wanting."
++++
Lin Keying didn’t take her fiancé’s name to heart, no matter if he was Song Xian in the past or Wan Ting now, after all, she was a “fake child bride”.
After settling down in Hong Kong City, Lin Keying had already made decisions on household registration, villa, and matters that needed to be decided for the servants. Several days had passed.
She finally took advantage of a free day to walk out of the villa halfway up the mountain and head to Sister He's dessert stall.
Sister He's stall was crowded with people and business was booming. She was pleasantly surprised to see Lin Keying.
"Keying, that day I was going to see you off, but I didn't see you at the dock. I thought I had missed your time to board the ship. So you hadn't left yet?"
Lin Keying did not expect any accidents to happen. She just said that she had come to Hong Kong City to find her relatives, and now that she had a fiancé, she would stay in Hong Kong temporarily. As for the future, she would take it one step at a time.
When Tingting and her brother Aqiang came back from school for lunch at noon, they were even more surprised to see Lin Keying.
"Sister Keying, it's great that you stay! I'll treat you to some egg waffles!" Tingting took out her own pocket money and bought fifty-cent egg waffles for Lin Keying.
The freshly baked eggettes are crispy on the outside and moist on the inside. The skin is baked crispy by the honeycomb iron sheet, while the inside is fragrant and soft. In particular, the aroma of the egg and the sweetness of the cream are mixed together, which has an excellent taste.
The hot egg waffles spread in Lin Keying's mouth, warming her heart. She came out this time prepared to spend her pocket money lavishly.
The last time we looked at the property that Acer Industrial had launched for sale, a house only required a 10% down payment, and using rent to pay off the mortgage was a sure-fire way to make a profit.
Lin Keying spent 50,000 yuan to buy two 500-square-foot houses, which are about 50 square meters. The down payment for each house was 25,000 yuan, and the monthly payment was 2,000 yuan.
The real estate sales staff from Acer Industrial were so excited that they could hardly stop talking, and they served tea and water to Miss Lin very enthusiastically.
Lin Keying originally planned to lend money to Sister He's family to buy a house first, but Sister He's family didn't want to owe money or favors to others, and were also hesitant about the high monthly payments, so they just said, "We'll work hard in the next few years and save more money to get 10% of the down payment."
How can you not be tempted when you see others owning properties with their own names on them?
Sister He was thinking about her dessert stall. If the business could get better and better, and she worked hard for a few years, maybe she could save enough money for a down payment.
In the past, Tingting was sick and the family expenses were high, but now I can relax and do more.
Lin Keying then suggested: "Why not expand the dessert stall and turn the Ho Kee dessert stall into a Ho Kee dessert shop."
Since she was going to stay in Hong Kong and had a lot of spare money, Lin Keying naturally wanted to invest. She bought two houses and rented them out to pay off the mortgage and wait for the profit to double in the future. Besides, the dessert stall was also suitable for investment.
Sister He has good cooking skills and her desserts are as delicious as those in big restaurants. The only difference is the location and the store. Plus, with the rapid development of Hong Kong City nowadays, there is an endless stream of people willing to spend money on food, so investing in a dessert shop is very profitable!
When Sister He heard about Lin Keying's plan, her first reaction was anxiety, but her anxiety was also mixed with a hint of excitement.
She was used to being honest. It was okay for her family to lose money, but she was worried about losing Lin Keying's capital. However, as long as she thought that her small and shabby dessert stall could be transformed into a clean, beautiful and spacious store, the excitement of the stall owner rose uncontrollably.
"Sister He, what are you afraid of? Nowadays, everyone is talking about investment vision. If I really lose money, it's my poor vision, not yours." Lin Keying comforted her, "Besides, I know your craftsmanship well. It's one of the best in Hong Kong. You will definitely be able to make it big and strong!"
When Huo Huachen heard the news and rushed to the dessert stall, he happened to see Lin Keying and Sister He discussing the plan of investing in opening a dessert shop.
Site selection, store decoration, target groups and selection of main sweet soup products...
Huo Huachen was just happy that Lin Keying did not leave Hong Kong, but he was depressed when he heard that she brought up her fiancé. In the end, he was still fascinated by the way she talked about business.
"Keying, you have a good business sense." When Huo Huachen heard that Lin Keying was going to stay in Hong Kong City, he ignored the matter of her fiancé and enthusiastically offered to help. "If you want to choose a location to open a dessert shop, I do have a recommendation."
There are many sweet soup shops in Hong Kong. After all, as one of the food cultures loved by all citizens, the sweet soup culture is deeply rooted and has even lasted for decades into the future.
Lin Keying’s target is today’s well-paid office workers.
Hong Kong Island is one of the fastest-growing areas in the entire city, with office buildings everywhere, and high-rise buildings are full of career elites and urban beauties.
The consumer group of office workers perfectly fits Lin Keying's target group. They have high salaries, are willing to spend, have certain demands for food tastes and environment, and are willing to pay a certain premium for them.
Huo Huachen comes from a family of doctors. Doctors, like lawyers, are high-paying and high-status professions in Hong Kong, with extensive connections and high respect.
He knew the owners of the shops on Queen's Road in Central, who were renting out the shops and were real landlords.
"Pretty girl, our street is the best, there are many restaurants serving yum cha and afternoon tea nearby, so we have a lot of customers. Two thousand dollars a month for 300 square feet is not expensive."
The shop owner was a man in his forties, dressed in a suit and tie, with his hair combed neatly. He was introducing the situation to Lin Keying in a fluent manner.
"You are Dr. Huo's friend, so I'll give you a discount of one hundred yuan."
Lin Keying looked around and found that this street had a huge flow of people. Business people in suits and briefcases came and went. It was exactly what she wanted to choose. However, after comparing prices and finding the rental price a bit expensive, she decided to reconsider.
When she was leaving, the boss acted as if she didn't know what the goods were: "Pretty girl, go look for more, there's no better place than mine with a more suitable price."
Huo Huachen looked at Lin Keying thoughtfully and asked, "You don't like it here?"
Lin Keying shook her head: "It's a good place, but I'll have to look around a bit more. Doctor Huo, thank you for your help."
Site selection is not that simple, especially the investigation of traffic flow and consumption power of the target group cannot be decided in one day. Lin Keying assigned two high school students a task after school: "Each of you has 10 yuan pocket money a day, eat and drink to see which restaurants nearby office workers like to go to, write it down and tell me."
How could Tingting and Aqiang not agree to such a good job suddenly? They almost jumped three feet high, but they calmed down after being looked at by Sister He.
After Lin Keying arranged the task, she took a taxi back to her villa in Mid-Levels. She first went to the second phase of the villa complex. Relying on the privilege of becoming a homeowner after purchasing the house in advance, she was able to feast her eyes on the villas.
Originally, I was just looking at the house model and didn’t have such a deep feeling. Now I can see the beautiful villa with my own eyes. The pure white walls are beautiful and elegant, the lawn is lush and green, and even the water in the swimming pool is clear and blue.
This is actually my own house!
My fiancé is such a nice guy! She even wanted to be with him forever!
The kind that works!
Lin Keying left the visit reluctantly, waiting for the completion and handover of the house next month.
Phase II of the Mid-Levels Villa is not too far from Phase I, and it only takes more than 20 minutes to drive to the entrance of House No. 5.
After getting out of the taxi, Lin Keying caught a glimpse of a Rolls-Royce Silver Thor parked in front of the villa while paying the fare. Her eyelids twitched and she became alert again - why did her fiancé come back so early!
The dinner on the table was already cold. Cheng Wanting caught a glimpse of a woman in a cool polka dot top and denim shorts returning to the villa in the glow of the sunset. He looked away and told the servants, "Take the food down and heat it up."
Lin Keying passed by Ah Mei and she felt guilty and racked her brain, wondering if her fiancé was waiting for her to have dinner with her?
Today, she was so absorbed in looking after the store that after she was done she treated everyone to a meal at a restaurant on the street and had not thought about going back to the villa for dinner at all.
Now, looking at her fiancé's expressionless face, her heart was pounding.
"Young Master." Lin Keying lifted her eyelids and glanced at him secretly. After just one glance, she retracted her gaze and stared at the ground timidly, "If you are hungry, why don't you eat first? You don't have to wait for me."
Cheng Wanting said in a cold voice: "You seem to be very free outside, especially you are very close to that intern."
Lin Keying's alarm bells rang and she was a little surprised. She had some guesses in her mind but felt that something was not right.
Even if my fiancé doesn't hate me so much now, he can't be said to like me or truly love me. Why does he look jealous?
Is this appropriate?
Could this be the strong possessiveness that wealthy bosses have even if they don't love?
It's written like this in novels. There's always a problem with a domineering CEO. He's extremely possessive even though he doesn't love her. In short, if you and I have a relationship, you can't go out and flirt with other women, otherwise you can't be called a domineering CEO!
What's more, she is his nominal fiancée.
Thinking of this, Lin Keying understood a little bit, and hurriedly said with a soft smile: "Master, did you misunderstand something? Doctor Huo and I are just friends, and you are my fiancé. It seems like I was flirting with other women and did something wrong, and made you jealous. I don't know how to comfort you~Brother Songxian~"
Sweet words and flirting should make this straight man uncomfortable, maybe even give him goose bumps.
But it is suitable for a little girl like me to get away with it ~ After all, I said such words in a coquettish manner, how could a mature and steady man like my fiancé continue to pursue the matter!
Especially at the end, he affectionately called Songxian brother to bring them closer.
Considering that this name only appeared in their little-known past, and that her fiancé already had another name, wouldn’t Songhyun become even more of a private nickname? Maybe only I will call out.
Cheng Wanting looked at the woman in front of him calmly, and saw her frowning as if she was complaining to him in a coquettish manner. Originally, after hearing the previous words, her frown relaxed and she was ready to eat dinner in peace.
But when the last three words came out, Cheng Wanting's face froze instantly. He stood up suddenly, raised his hands to hold the woman's waist, and pulled her forward with force, holding her in his arms, with a bit of fierceness in his eyes: "You are calling me affectionately... Then if I am really jealous, how are you going to comfort me?"
The soft Lin Keying collided with the hard chest, and she grabbed the man's arm with both hands reflexively, and only then did she manage to steady her body.
The palms on the waist were burning hot, the skin on the chest was burning hot, and the man's eyes were also burning hot. When the word "coax" fell, he was looking at her with scorching eyes...
The two of them stood very close to each other, and Lin Keying sensed a faint sense of danger floating in the air, especially that meaningful look.
Her fiancé's expression changed drastically, like turning over the pages of a book, which surprised Lin Keying and shocked her to the core.
The handsome face of the man was right in front of her. Lin Keying thought that she would not suffer any loss after all, so she simply stood on tiptoe, supported her strong arms with both hands, and kissed the man...
