In Hong Kong, we build a global business empire

Chapter 444 Can I come here often in the future?
On that day, Lin Haoran visited companies such as Hong Kong Electric Group, Oriental News Company, China Gas and Kowloon Motor Bus in turn.

It was not until 6pm that he left the Kowloon Motor Bus headquarters in Lai Chi Kok.

Afterwards, his car passed through the Hung Hom Cross-Harbour Tunnel, but did not drive towards the Deep Water Bay villa area. Instead, it turned back to the long-missed Severn Road villa.

In the afternoon, Lin Haoran called the villa manager and told him that he would have dinner at home tonight and asked them to prepare it in advance.

Back at the villa, the kitchen was fully prepared for dinner.

Just as Lin Haoran was about to enjoy dinner, the roar of a car engine suddenly came from outside the door.

After a while, the servant hurried in and reported to him: "Master, Miss Guo is here."

When Lin Haoran heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

How did Guo Xiaohan know that he had returned here?
Although he was full of doubts, he quickly straightened his clothes and went out to greet them in person.

Walking out of the villa gate, in the night, he indeed saw Guo Xiaohan standing not far away, having just closed the trunk of the car, holding an exquisite gift box in his hand.

Under the moonlight, her figure looked particularly gentle and charming.

Seeing Lin Haoran, Guo Xiaohan's face bloomed with a happy yet slightly shy smile, and he whispered: "Brother Haoran, I came here without saying hello, did I disturb you?"

"No, you're here at the right time. Dinner is just ready at home." Lin Haoran took the gift box she handed over with a smile.

"What's this good stuff?" he asked curiously.

"Brother Haoran, you went to the United States some time ago. I also went to Italy on a business trip. Before I came back, I specially picked out a pair of Gucci leather shoes and two belts for you. I hope you will like them." Guo Xiaohan smiled like a flower, her eyes full of sincerity and expectation.

"It just so happens that I have prepared a gift for you when I go to the United States this time. I will give it to you when you leave." Lin Haoran said with a smile.

Regarding his relationship with Guo Xiaohan, Lin Haoran has always taken a laissez-faire attitude.

Now seeing Guo Xiaohan being so proactive, he couldn't help but think that maybe in two years, this Miss Guo would really become his legal wife.

However, he did not resist it.

After all, whether in terms of family background, beauty or talent, Guo Xiaohan is indeed a perfect match for him.

The reason why he is not willing to accept Guo Xiaohan immediately is that he hopes to enjoy another two years of free and unrestrained life.

Once he establishes a romantic relationship with Guo Xiaohan now, she will most likely move in with him and follow him wherever he goes, which means that he will lose his personal freedom to a certain extent.

In addition, the news of his love affair with Guo Xiaohan must have been widely reported by the media, which is not a good thing for him.

"Really?" Guo Xiaohan confirmed again, the joy on her face was like a flower blooming in spring, bright and hard to conceal.

"Stop chatting, let's eat first!" Lin Haoran waved his finger lightly and pointed inside the house.

"Yeah!" Guo Xiaohan nodded happily, followed Lin Haoran into the villa, and came to the dining room which was decorated in an elegant yet warm style.

At this time, the servants were busy arranging the exquisite dishes, and the air was filled with the tempting aroma of food.

Although it was originally prepared for him alone, the table was already filled with five delicious dishes with plenty of filling.

As a super-rich man, he naturally doesn't have the mentality of wasting money.

However, Guo Xiaohan's arrival could help him share some of the food, as it would be thrown away anyway if he didn't eat it.

"Wash your hands first, then let's eat!" Lin Haoran said with a smile after putting the gift box away.

"Okay, I'll go right away." Guo Xiaohan felt excited. Thinking about having dinner with Lin Haoran, her heart beat faster like a deer.

After washing her hands, Guo Xiaohan returned to the dining room and saw Lin Haoran already sitting at the dining table, pulling out a chair for her.

Her heart warmed, she walked over quickly and said softly, "Thank you, Brother Haoran."

Lin Haoran smiled slightly and motioned for her to sit down.

"Don't be so polite, try these dishes and see if they suit your taste."

Guo Xiaohan picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of steamed grouper, put it in his mouth and savored it carefully.

The fish meat was tender and melted in the mouth. She couldn't help but exclaimed: "It's delicious! I didn't expect your chef's skills are so good."

Lin Haoran smiled and said, "As long as you like it, you can come often if you like. I'm the only one eating at home anyway."

Guo Xiaohan blinked and said mischievously, "Then it's settled."

While eating, the two chatted about their recent lives.

Lin Haoran learned from Guo Xiaohan that the reason why she knew he had just returned was because his motorcade happened to pass by the Guo family villa and was discovered by the careful Guo Xiaohan.

After all, the license plate of Lin Haoran's Rolls-Royce was too easy to recognize.

After hearing the news, Guo Xiaohan, who hadn't seen each other for a long time, was so excited that he came to visit involuntarily.

Guo Xiaohan enthusiastically recounted her experiences in Italy, from ancient buildings to delicious pasta to local customs and practices. Her description was vivid and interesting, causing Lin Haoran to nod frequently.

"It sounds like you gained a lot from this business trip." Lin Haoran said with a smile. Guo Xiaohan nodded, with excitement in his eyes.

"Yes, Italy is really beautiful. Unfortunately, I went there to help my family with their business there. I was a bit pressed for time and only had a week to go back and forth, so I didn't get to see much. We can go together next time if we have the chance."

Lin Haoran was slightly stunned, then smiled and said, "Okay, I haven't been to Europe for a long time, so this is a good time to relax."

When Guo Xiaohan heard his response, she felt delighted and her face flushed unconsciously.

She lowered her head and said softly, "It's settled then, you can't go back on your word."

Lin Haoran looked at her shy appearance and couldn't help feeling moved, so he didn't continue talking about this issue.

This little girl always leads him to talk about some topics between lovers.

After dinner, Lin Haoran suggested taking a walk in the garden to digest the food.

Guo Xiaohan readily agreed, and the two walked out of the villa side by side, strolling along the garden path under the moonlight.

The night breeze blows gently, bringing bursts of floral fragrance.

Guo Xiaohan took a deep breath and sighed: "The air here is so fresh, much better than the hustle and bustle of the city."

Lin Haoran nodded and said, "Yes, so I like living here, it's quiet and comfortable."

Guo Xiaohan turned her head, looked at his profile, and asked softly, "Brother Haoran, do you feel lonely living here alone?"

Lin Haoran was slightly stunned, then smiled and said, "You'll get used to it, but it's also nice to have friends come over to accompany you occasionally."

The friend that Lin Haoran was referring to was naturally Guan Jiahui.

Basically, if he felt lonely and empty one day, after a phone call, Guan Jiahui would take the initiative to come to his house to cheer him up, so that his days would never be boring.

However, he hasn't called Guan Jiahui since he came back this time.

This girl has recently been trying to join a high-end clothing brand under the Jardine Matheson Group and is interested in doing business.

As for how it was going, Lin Haoran didn't pay much attention.

Anyway, in order to help her father pay off the debt, this girl has now reached some kind of agreement with him, which is equivalent to a contract of sale. If she doesn't want to die, she won't do anything to let him down.

Guo Xiaohan lowered his head and said softly: "Then...can I come here often in the future?"

Lin Haoran stopped and turned to face her, with a gentle smile in his eyes. "Of course, didn't I just say that you are welcome anytime as long as you are willing."

Lin Haoran naturally understood her feelings. She had confessed her feelings to her several times, so he didn't talk about it too much.

Looking at the time, it was already past eight o'clock in the evening, so Lin Haoran took Guo Xiaohan back to the first floor lobby.

"Wait here, I'll get you something." After Lin Haoran said that, he walked into the study on the first floor.

Here, he placed several gift boxes, one of which was the gift he bought for Guo Xiaohan.

Not only Guo Xiaohan had one, Lin Haoran also bought one for Guan Jiahui.

Picking up one of the gift boxes, Lin Haoran left the study.

"What is this?" Guo Xiaohan took the gift box with curiosity, her face full of surprise.

"When you get home and open it, you'll know. It's getting late now, so you should go back early so that Uncle Guo won't worry about you." Lin Haoran said with a smile, his tone a little gentle.

In her heart, Guo Xiaohan actually wanted to say that her uncle already knew that she had come to Lin Haoran's place and would not be too worried, but she swallowed the words back in the end.

She nodded gently, feeling mixed emotions.

On the one hand, she was happy and touched that Lin Haoran specially brought this gift back from the United States;

On the other hand, Lin Haoran's unintentional intention to drive her away made her feel a little lost and reluctant.

The gift was not expensive. It was just Sony's Walkman, which was released just last year and was the world's first portable cassette player.

Innovative electronic gadgets like these are indeed more popular nowadays, with companies like Sony, Toshiba, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Nintendo, etc.

In comparison, in this field, even the United States, the most powerful country in the world, cannot compare.

These things are actually also sold in shopping malls in Hong Kong.

It was just that when I was in the United States, I happened to see it in a counter, so I bought a few, thinking of giving them to Guo Xiaohan, Guan Jiahui and others.

Now that Guo Xiaohan came to visit in person, he just went with the flow and gave her the gift.

But, come to think of it, I can also start a technology product company.

Such things as numerous handheld games, MP3s, and PDAs that had not yet been invented were very popular in developed countries around the world in the s and s.
