Chapter 39 Chapter 39 (Thanks for 6000 nutrient solution) ...
The underground parking lot was dimly lit, but Cheng Wanting's eyes accurately captured the woman in the Bentley. She was talking and laughing, leaning her head out of the car window, and stretching a finger towards him. The white fingertips hooked in the air, making people feel itchy.
Cheng Wanting walked closer step by step, his shiny leather shoes stepping on the black ground, leaning forward until his eyes met the woman's.
"Ms. Lin, how much does it cost to take a ride?" Her thin lips curled up slightly, and her magnetic voice seemed to be wrapped in honey, with a hint of sweetness.
Lin Keying shrugged, and the sapphire necklace clinging to her beautiful collarbone shone brightly. "I think Mr. Cheng is quite good-looking, so I'll waive your fare for once."
"Then it's Miss Lin who is at a disadvantage. I'm sorry, but you still have to pay the fare." Cheng Wanting lowered his head and gently bit the woman's plump, rosy lips.
......
Lin Keying's cheeks were flushed as she drove onto the road with the man in the passenger seat. There seemed to be a familiar yet unfamiliar scent lingering on his lips.
You have to pay for the fare, and I don’t know who makes a profit and who loses.
Cheng Wanting became the first person to sit in the passenger seat of Lin Keying's new car. Taking advantage of the fact that the man was free tonight, he drove the Bentley Mulsanne all the way south to the Peak.
As night falls, the garden restaurant at the Hilltop Hotel is in an excellent location for viewing the scenery.
Dark brown wooden dining tables stand among the flowers and trees, each one is far apart, providing excellent privacy. In the center is a wooden frame piano of the same color, and a musician in a suit is playing live.
However, tonight, this place is reserved by Cheng Wanting.
Accompanied by the melodious notes of "Autumn Whispers", the waiters served the dishes repeatedly. Steak, foie gras, black truffle and sea cucumber were delicately arranged on the European-style plates... and finally a serving of matsutake cream soup was served.
Lin Keying and Cheng Wanting were in the middle of it, with the night view of Victoria Harbour at an altitude of 500 meters to the side.
Looking down at the panoramic view, the lights on the Victoria Harbour are shining brightly, and the high-rise buildings on the seaside are staggered and decorated like bright stars.
Lin Keying was in a good mood today. During the meal, she talked to the man about the renovation progress of Xitian Building. She even invited several old gold and jewelry stores and six luxury brands to move in. "Next, we have to create an entertainment and humanistic tone. A mountaintop restaurant like this is good. Xitian can develop a high-rise revolving restaurant."
Cheng Wanting listened to the woman talking and could clearly feel her joy. He praised her from time to time and also gave her suggestions.
The conversation between the two people collided with the sound of piano music.
After the meal, the two stood up and leaned against the wall, looking down at the panoramic view of Victoria Harbour. The twinkling lights were like stars in the sky, and the brightness of the night sky was far away.
The night breeze blew, ruffling Lin Keying's hair, and her curly hair playfully swept across the man's arm. Cheng Wanting's arm felt slightly itchy. The restlessness that started in the underground parking lot had not dissipated. When he lowered his eyes, the woman's beautiful smile came into view.
“Very happy?” He was so absorbed in his work that he had never had the leisure to enjoy the night view on the Peak.
Lin Keying smiled and nodded: "Yeah. Of course it's fun to relax like this, without having to worry about anything."
The man's handsome profile was right in front of her, his jawline as sharp as a knife. Thinking of being pestered by the man to pay the "fare" in the garage, Lin Keying stood on tiptoe to take revenge, climbed his arm, and kissed the man's thin lips with her red lips, brushing from the upper lip, and biting the lower lip with her pearly teeth.
Just as the man placed his big hand on her waist and lowered his head to deepen the kiss, Lin Keying left as soon as he touched her.
"Let's go, home~" Lin Keying trotted away, her fluffy hair swaying in graceful arcs in the air, like an elf who had strayed into the garden.
Cheng Wanting stared at the woman's departing back. Even her back was beautiful.
The black Bentley almost blends into the night, with only a faint sheen revealing its luxurious and noble existence.
Lin Keying sat in the driver's seat and when she lowered her head to fasten her seat belt, she heard the passenger door open and the man sat down. She couldn't help but tease the man, "Mr. Cheng, where is your destination? We've already collected the fare."
Cheng Wanting looked at the woman with a deep smile on her face. He held her wrist with one hand, tilted his head and kissed her: "How can the fare just now be enough?"
Lin Keying was kissed on the lips by the man and felt his heavy breathing at the same time as the seat belt in front of her was unbuckled.
Her body suddenly became light and floated in the air. The man's big hands supported her waist and hips. Lin Keying sat on the man from the driver's seat in an instant.
The crowded carriage was packed to the brim.
Under Lin Keying was the man's strong and powerful thighs. She spread her legs and pressed them against his legs. Her arms were pressed against his strong chest, but her red lips were always being sucked.
"Want to run away after kissing?" The man's voice was hoarse, as if filled with heavy desire.
Lin Keying's red lips were moisturized to become even more rosy, as if glowing with a light moist luster. She pursed her lips lightly, and saw a bit of frightening sharpness in the man's dark eyes.
It's like a knife, stabbing straight into one's flesh and blood.
The man's embrace was getting warmer, his arms were tightly clasped, and the small space was made even more cramped by the heat. Lin Keying sat unsteadily, the surroundings were getting hotter and hotter, the air seemed to be squeezed, and her breathing became faster.
"We're not married yet!" Lin Keying placed her hands on the man's chest to bring him back to his senses.
The Bentley was parked quietly by the roadside in the night. After a while, it slowly started and drove away from the Peak.
It was just that the driver was replaced. Lin Keying leaned limply against the passenger seat, shocked.
Too bad, my fiancé doesn’t seem to have any hidden illness.
——
The next morning, Cheng Wanting woke up from his sleep, his face slightly red, with beads of sweat oozing from his forehead. He lifted the thin quilt and glanced at the person below with a burning gaze.
Before getting out of bed and walking into the bathroom, Cheng Wanting glanced at the calendar on the wall. There were still three days before they got their marriage certificate.
......
Cheng Wanting rushed to the company early in the morning and started his busy work. Yang Minghui reported today's schedule: "Master, from 9 to 10 o'clock is the shareholders' meeting of Huanyu. From 10 to 11 o'clock, we will discuss the development of Wharf Holdings with Jardine Matheson. From 11 to 1 pm, you will have a dinner with the Deputy Minister of Transportation. This year's shipping export business requires the Ministry of Transportation to give some approval. From 1 to 3 pm, the president of Acer Industrial invites you to play golf. It seems that he is preparing to discuss matters related to building a building. From 3 to 5 pm, Wanxin will report on the land in Shatin. In addition, three TV stations, five newspapers, and four magazines want to invite you for an interview..."
With a busy schedule, Cheng Wanting adjusted his cufflinks and strode to the meeting room: "All interviews have been postponed."
Yang Minghui knew this all along. The eldest young master hated to show up in public and would not even accept ordinary text interviews.
At lunch time, Cheng Wanting had lunch with the Deputy Minister of Transport of the British Hong Kong Government in a private room at the Regent Hotel.
The table was filled with light meals, and the two discussed the development prospects of the current shipping business.
"Shipping has dominated transportation for many years. Its status as a maritime hegemon over such a long period of time cannot be underestimated, especially in export trade. Whoever owns the ships at sea has the right to speak."
Minister Gao has been dealing with the Cheng family, which controls half of the shipping market in Hong Kong, for many years, so he is naturally familiar with them.
The other half of the port city's shipping market is still firmly in the hands of the British.
"Minister Gao, shipping is slowly going downhill now. Relying on maritime shipping and making money through export trade cannot keep up with the speed of development of building a new business."
"In that case, the Cheng family is planning to abandon ship and go ashore?" How could Minister Gao not know that the real estate industry is now a general trend, and even has a crazy trend.
Cheng Wanting smiled and shook his head: "Wrong. The Cheng family wants both."
"Brother Cheng, you are really arrogant." Minister Gao joked, and then said, "Aren't you worried that Global Shipping will take a bite of you while you are ashore and buying land and building a building?"
The British-controlled Global Shipping competes with the Cheng family's Global Group to control the maritime lifeline of the port city.
"Let's see, he eats me." Cheng Wanting tapped the table with his fingertips, saying, "Or, I eat him."
The dinner lasted for two hours. Yang Minghui postponed Cheng Wanting's subsequent schedule, but suddenly received a message.
After the eldest young master walked out of the private room, Yang Minghui quickly walked to the eldest young master and whispered: "Eldest young master, Young Master Chen somehow found out Miss Lin's license plate number and even asked Minister Gao's son to investigate the owner of the car."
Cheng Wanting's expression froze. He told Yang Minghui to deal with the license plate, then turned around and whispered a few words to Minister Gao who was about to say goodbye.
Minister Gao's expression suddenly changed, and he smiled and said, "My son is so disappointing that he actually reached out to Brother Cheng. I will punish him severely when I get back!"
Within a day, Minister Gao's son was taught a lesson. When he called Chen Songxian to reply, he concealed the information that the license plate he had investigated was from Huanyu: "Chen Songxian, how can I check the license plate? I'm just pretending in front of you. Do you think I'm your father? How can I have that ability?"
Lin Keying blinked and saw that the license plate of the new car in the garage, which was still in good condition yesterday, had changed.
She rubbed her eyes to make sure she was not seeing things.
How did the original A6688 become A99?
Cheng Wanting explained the reason for changing the license plate casually: "I asked Master Pang to calculate it. The original license plate is not good for you. This one is good."
Lin Keying: "..."
Young master, you are so superstitious!
I heard Secretary Yang mention privately before that the eldest young master was clearly not a superstitious person, but Lin Keying didn't bother to argue with him at the moment. So she just changed the license plate.
The car still drives.
However, Lin Keying was surprised by the man's incoherent words later.
"Register for marriage in advance?" Lin Keying calculated the days and found that there were only three days left to the agreed registration date.
"Hmm." Cheng Wanting felt a dull pain in his temples. Hong Kong is not a big city, but it is not small either. With a population of five million, it was able to allow Chen Songxian to bump into Lin Keying's new car and even memorize the license plate number.
The uneasiness in my heart stretches infinitely, like a sponge soaked in water, damp and dense, making it hard to breathe.
"No way." Lin Keying cherished the last three days of her unmarried life. Although there might be no difference in status, the psychology was different after all. Especially since the auspicious date was calculated and set in advance, how could it be changed at will? "You said the license plate was not auspicious, so I asked you to change it. Wouldn't it be worse if the auspicious date was changed?"
A few sharp words left Cheng Wanting speechless.
Cheng Wanting pinched his brows and could only take a step back: "Then you should stay at home for the next three days..."
"Why?!" Lin Keying just got a new car and was itching to go out for a ride every day. How could she be willing to stay at home? "I don't want to! I'll get bored if I stay at home."
Cheng Wanting's expression remained unchanged: "Hong Kong is quite chaotic. I am worried about you running around."
"There are no police officers there." Lin Keying didn't take the man's inexplicable words to heart at all. She hurried him to go to work and got in the car to go for a ride. "Don't delay your work. I made an appointment with Tingting to go to the mall to pick out clothes. We will wear them on the day we register~"
Looking at the black car whizzing past and disappearing into the distance, Yang Minghui looked at his eldest master with sympathy.
"Young Master, this... Hong Kong City is so big, it's impossible for Master Chen to meet Miss Lin again..." Yang Minghui's words were not very confident.
After all, who could have expected that the car that Miss Lin had just picked up and the license plate that had just been hung would be seen by Chen Songxian.
It’s so weird!
Is this the bond and fate between the engaged fiancé and his child bride? Yang Minghui felt uneasy.
Young Master, can you really fight for the fate bestowed by God? !
"Inform Chen Songxian that he is not allowed to go out for the next three days and must stay at home. Arrange a few more bodyguards to follow Miss Lin." Cheng Wanting's narrow and long phoenix eyes revealed a bit of determination, "Make sure that his shadow does not appear within a ten-mile radius of Miss Lin."
Yang Minghui was shocked and said, "Young Master Chen, you're on your own!"
Stop jumping around.
......
Two days before the registration, Lin Keying drove around in her beloved luxury car and bought a silver dress accompanied by Tingting. It was not exaggerated or extravagant, but it was handmade and exquisite in every detail, which was just right for occasions such as registering for marriage.
I also picked out a dark red plaid suit for Cheng Wanting. Men's clothes are not easy to choose, especially for a picky guy like Cheng Wanting. Lin Keying went shopping in the mall for two consecutive days before she decided on the color of her suit.
The deep red color seems to be immersed in the mysterious night, and a few golden lines outline the intended dragon pattern, which appears low-key yet noble.
Different from the monotonous black, white and gray in men’s wardrobes, Lin Keying specially picked different colors.
After putting a suit in the back seat of the Bentley, Lin Keying drove to Tsim Sha Tsui before going home.
Scout Tang Qiankun was drinking tea by the window on the second floor of the restaurant, waiting for someone. When he saw Lin Keying appear at the door, he stood up and said, "Ms. Lin, please take a seat. Let's see what we want to drink."
Ever since Lin Keying saved his arm, Tang Qiankun has been extremely honest and respectful when he sees Lin Keying.
Lin Keying casually ordered a cup of lemon tea and a pineapple bun: "Have you found out what I asked you to investigate for me?"
A former talent scout and part-time paparazzi, Tang Qiankun's professional ability is beyond doubt. He directly reported the situation: "Ms. Lin, you asked me to investigate the reason why Xitian Building collapsed in the first place. There really is something fishy going on."
After Lin Keying took over Xitian Building, she found that even if a building with such investment was poorly managed, it would not be abandoned to such an extent. In addition, she heard that there were problems with the internal management of the building, so she wanted to investigate.
The person around him who is suitable for doing this kind of thing is the scout Tang Qiankun.
"The previous owner of Xitian Building was the wealthy Wang Tianwei. The building was actually built by his father and left to him to inherit. However, Wang Tianwei was lustful and addicted to gambling. He gave the building to his mistress No. 1 who was kept outside. He forgot about it and a few months later, he got drunk and boasted that he gave the building to his mistress No. 2 and No. 3. Now, the three mistresses all thought the building was theirs and almost got into a fight. In the end, Wang Tianwei decided to divide the building among the three mistresses, and each of them took care of their own business, which completely ruined the building."
The more Lin Keying listened, the more surprised she became. Isn't this more exciting than a melodramatic TV drama?
"This Wang Tianwei is just a joke. No wonder such a good building was destroyed by him." Lin Keying inquired about the location of the building that the three lovers had been given. When she was about to have someone inspect the interior thoroughly, she heard the scout on the opposite side suddenly speak.
"Ms. Lin, someone has been following you these days."
"Hmm?" Lin Keying followed Tang Qiankun's gaze outside and listened to his sharp judgment.
"The day before yesterday, when Miss Lin asked me to investigate, I saw a six-foot-tall, square-faced man in black in a nearby shop, and a five-foot-one-inch-tall, round-faced man in black in an ice house. Today, these two men appeared again..." Tang Qiankun is a scout, and he is best at observing people's facial and body features. Even their walking posture and some subtle habits that are so subtle that the person is not aware of them are within his eagle eyes.
Lin Keying whispered, "Check who it is."
Tang Qiankun's paparazzi nature exploded. That evening, he brought Lin Keying the results of his investigation: "Those two people eventually joined Huanyu Group."
——
On the night before the marriage registration was agreed upon, Cheng Wanting listened to the report from the bodyguard sent to follow Lin Keying, who made sure that Chen Songxian would stay at home for three days and Lin Keying would not have any chance to meet him or even see a strand of his hair.
Cheng Wanting felt relieved.
All they had to do was wait till dawn and another twelve hours, and then they would be able to register successfully.
When they returned to the villa halfway up the mountain, the bright living room was empty except for a brand new men's suit on the sofa. Cheng Wanting's eyes were bright, his thin lips raised, and he turned his head to look around for the woman who was about to become his wife.
"You're back?" Lin Keying leaned against the door frame of the guest room, with her arms folded across her chest, looking at the man seriously.
"Yeah." Cheng Wanting took two steps forward, his eyes burning with fire.
"Don't touch me." Lin Keying raised her chin slightly and held her head high. Her beautiful neck and shoulders were like a noble white swan. "Mr. Cheng Wanting, why did you hire someone to follow me for several days?"
Men cannot be coaxed all the time. If this is the case before marriage, what will happen after marriage?
Lin Keying waved a whip in her heart, determined to teach this scary man a lesson: "Do you know that you look like a pervert?"
