Hong Kong Nights of Passion

Chapter 110 You really sold Yiyi out?
Upon hearing this, Wen Jinnian's face flushed with embarrassment, and she covered her face, hiding behind Chi Yige's shoulder.

"Uncle, Niannian is a bit shy, please don't..."

Chi Min interrupted him.

"Okay, okay, I'll go work outside. You guys continue."

He then waved his hand, turned around, and walked out.

Wen Jin angrily punched his chest: "How am I supposed to face anyone like this?"

Chi Yige chuckled and grabbed her flailing hand, coaxing her, "You were wrong, you were wrong, you won't do it again. Otherwise, if you expose Yiyi's affair later, he won't care about us."

"Are you even my own brother?" She looked up, bewildered. "How could you be so mean to your own sister?"

"Would he really reveal Yiyi's affair?" Wen Jinian looked at the person in front of her with a face full of doubt.

"That's his own daughter!" Chi Yige casually took her hand and kissed it.

Chi Yige stopped teasing him, went shirtless to the closet, took out a plaid casual shirt to change into, and led her out. Chi Min was sitting on the sofa.

Wen Jinian lowered her head slightly as he introduced her with a smile: "Her name is Wen Jinian, and she is Yiyi's best friend."

Chi Min raised an eyebrow and asked with a smile, "So, what about your relationship?"

"I'm pursuing Wen."

Chi Yige spoke naturally, and Chi Min glared at him with a smile before turning his gaze to Wen Jinnian: "Hello, Miss Wen, I am Chi Min, Yiyi's father. It's a pleasure to meet you."

She forced herself to greet him obediently, "Hello, Uncle Chi," her ears burning.

"Don't be nervous, Yiyi often mentions you."

Just as Chi Min was about to ask something, Chi Yige suddenly interrupted, "Uncle, Yiyi is probably in love. You might need to check her out."

"What? Is this girl's love-struck mind working up again? Every time she says she likes someone, she says she likes them for years, spending a lot of money on them. Who is it this time?"

Chi Min immediately took out his phone and dialed a number.

Wen Jinnian's eyes widened, and she turned her head to mutter softly, "You really betrayed Yiyi?"

When Fu Yiyi answered the phone, she was stunned for a moment, and Wen Jinnian heard her signature loudspeaker voice coming from Chi Min's phone.

"Old Chi, you're not happy about me dating again?"

Chi Min moved the phone behind her ear, cleared her throat, and said, "Dating is fine, but I have to vet the guy's looks first."

Fu Yiyi's angry voice came through the receiver: "I'm coming right now."

Then the phone hung up with a "beep".

As soon as Wen Jinnian got off the elevator, she immediately sent a message to Fu Yiyi, telling her to "be careful," but she didn't mention that Chi Yige had betrayed her.

I'm afraid the brother and sister will start fighting again.

Around noon, Wen Jinnian saw the trending topic on social media.

Qin Xianglian was taken away and detained by the police.
She received a message from Chi Yige.

(Qin Fangjiang wants to settle privately and is willing to pay 5000 million yuan in compensation.)
She asked hesitantly.

(Is it difficult for Uncle Chi?)

Chi Yige called directly: "If they don't want to settle, let them rot in jail. He knows my mother's death is related to them. Qin Fang wasn't the main culprit; he just leaked the information back then."

"What if I'm willing to reconcile?"

"Qin Xianglian will be detained for a period of time, and the Qin family will decline in Hong Kong."

Wen Jin thought for a moment and said, "I'll listen to you."

"Then keep the money."

She joked, "I didn't expect Dr. Chi to care about 5000 million."

The phone rang with the soft sound of a pen tapping on the table. He turned around in his sofa and said, "I'm willing to give you all my assets, but I'm afraid you won't take them. This 5000 million is rightfully yours; take it, and you'll have confidence."

She was stunned.

It would be a lie to say I wasn't moved. Besides this job, her comics were published, and she earned a good income from selling the copyrights.

If she works for a few years and saves some money, supporting herself and her aunt won't be a problem. Thinking about it, she suddenly smiled.

7 pm.

Wen Jinnian stood in the lobby of Hollywood Plaza, holding her movie ticket, waiting for Chi Yige.

Because he had an overseas video conference, she arrived early to wait for him. She then went over and bought a large bucket of popcorn and two bottles of cola to sit in the rest area.

As the time was approaching and the person still hadn't appeared, she was about to reach for her phone when a figure loomed over her, and she looked up.

"Niannian, want to come see a movie?"

She was taken aback, having not seen Jiang Shu for several days: "Brother, you're back from your business trip?"

Jiang Shu nodded, his gaze sweeping over the popcorn and cola in her hand: "Waiting for someone?"

Wen Jinian gripped her phone tightly. It would be 7 o'clock in 10 minutes, and she hesitated, unsure how to begin.

"Yes... I'm waiting for Yiyi to watch a movie. Brother, what brings you here?"

"I brought a client to see a movie," Jiang Shu said with a smile. As soon as he finished speaking, a clear female voice came from behind him: "President Jiang."

She turned around and saw a stylish woman in a Chanel suit dress walking towards her, her wavy hair cascading over her shoulders.

"This is a partner developer of the Jiang Group. His surname is Chen."

She then pointed to Wen Jinnian, "My younger sister, Niannian."

The two greeted each other with "hello," and the woman glanced at the time: "Our show is almost here, let's go in first."

Wen Jinian nodded. Jiang Shu hesitated for a moment, then finally said, "Niannian, we'll contact you again later."

She watched the two walk towards the ticket gate, her fingers unconsciously tracing the edge of the movie ticket.

"Who are you looking at?" Wen Jinnian turned around and saw Chi Yige standing behind her wearing a mask, his eyes fixed on the movie tickets in her hand.

He wore a light gray thin linen shirt with the top two buttons undone, revealing his pale collarbone. The shirt was casually tucked into matching casual trousers, the cuffs slightly rolled up to expose his ankles, and he paired it with white canvas shoes.

Without the aloofness of a suit, he exudes a more casual college student vibe, yet his straight shoulders reveal an innate sharpness that cannot be concealed.

She laughed and said, "After Dr. Chi changed his clothes, he looked like a male college student."

"It seems Wen hasn't had many romantic relationships on campus," he chuckled.

She was taken aback: "What do you mean?"

“All the boys on campus are very fashionable.”

She tilted her head: "Should I go back to school and have a relationship?"

He gently brushed the tip of her nose with his fingertip: "Do you dare to try?"

Then he asked, "What happened just now?"

"My brother brought clients to the movies," she whispered, leaning closer. "Be careful when you go out later, don't bump into them."

"Listen to you."

His eyes were gentle, his fingertips lightly grasped her wrist, and he walked towards the ticket gate, a slight smile playing on his lips beneath his mask.

The two sat down in the front row, and on the screen, "The Notebook" was playing, showing the scene where the male and female protagonists reunite, passionately kissing in the rain and embracing as they enter the house.

Wen Jinnian's fingers tightened as she held the popcorn, and her ears gradually burned.

The couples sitting nearby were moved by the scene and even embraced and kissed, filling the theater with an ambiguous atmosphere.

She quietly turned her head and saw that Chi Yige was staring at the screen, his profile was smooth and cold, and his Adam's apple moved gently with each swallow.

She hurriedly gulped down a mouthful of cola, and heard his low chuckle above her head: "What? Want to try it too?"

"Dr. Chi, be serious!"

She playfully scolded him, but her gaze was drawn to the corner of his lips that were curving upwards.

He raised an eyebrow and gestured around. She looked and, sure enough, the hall was full of couples kissing, just like in the movie. In the dim light, his fingertips gently hooked her chin: "Want to try?"
