Hong Kong Nights of Passion

Chapter 117 When you're in love, you're bound to have more energy.

Just as Wen Jinnian was about to speak, Chi Yige waved his hand and said, "You guys go and rest first. This is a matter between men."

Shen Yu and Duan Jiayan exchanged a glance. Duan Jiayan raised an eyebrow, feeling that this was a declaration of war.

Chi Yige turned and walked towards the pool table, saying as he went, "Then let's have a match."

The two headed towards the pool table, and Chi Yige paused slightly. "You two come too, and bring some Red Bull while you're at it."

Shen Yu was eager to join in the fun, and since Chi Yige had already spoken, they felt awkward leaving directly.

He pulled Duan Jiayan along, saying, "Let's go get some fruit, melon seeds, and Red Bull. We'll probably be staying up late tonight."

Duan Jiayan followed him, somewhat dazed.

Seeing this, Fu Yiyi pulled Wen Jinnian aside and whispered, "Do you want to go see?"

Wen Jinnian shook her head.

"Then I won't go either."

So the two of them went straight to their room.

Jiang Shu picked up the cue stick, his wrist nimbly circling the chocolate powder twice. He bent down, and the white ball shot like an arrow into the pile of colored balls, the orange-red cue ball falling into the pocket.

Chi Yige glanced at it indifferently, then slowly put on the leather finger cots, his fingertips brushing against the club with a somewhat nonchalant motion.

He slightly bent his knees, his profile silhouetted sharply in the shadows, and in the instant he aimed, he suddenly looked up at Jiang Shu: "Young Master Jiang's strength is not bad."

As soon as he finished speaking, the cue stick struck out swiftly, the white ball tracing an unpredictable arc before precisely hitting the corner pocket.

Neither of them gave in to the other.

Jiang Shu gently rubbed the club against his chin, but his eyes were icy: "Young Master Chi's playing style is ruthless, but some things can't be won just by being ruthless."

He tapped the pool table with his fingertips. "Just like this pool table, even the most brilliant clean-out can't compare to a well-planned, long-term strategy. Some things are forged over decades; you can't just throw your luck at them."

Chi Yige bent slightly and hit the white ball, which hit the edge of the table with a piercing sound.

As he straightened up, a cold smile curled at the corner of his mouth: "Young Master Jiang certainly knows how to use time as an excuse. But in matters of the heart, it's never about who gets in first."

"Those who are truly clear-headed have already hardened their hearts and embraced a new life after despair."

When tensions were high, Shen Yu casually placed two cases of Red Bull next to the pool table, while Duan Jiayan pulled up a folding chair and plopped down on it.

"Keep going, you two! There's plenty of Red Bull, enough to keep us battling all night!"

Jiang Shu tightened his grip on the golf club, his gaze sweeping over the mountain of snacks, his temples throbbing.

These two were clearly just watching the show from the sidelines.

Wen Jinian opened the door with her card, and what came into view was a 360-degree floor-to-ceiling window and a very large bed.

She texted Shen Yu on her phone, asking how long they were going to call, and then put her phone on the bedside table to charge.

I took a change of clothes and went to take a shower.

Half an hour later, after taking a shower and drying her hair, she saw an unread message on her phone.

After unlocking with fingerprint, the first thing that appears on WeChat is a few photos, all of which are of Chi Yige playing billiards with his body slightly bent over.

She zoomed in on the photo, chuckled softly, and thought the face was handsome, but the eyes revealed a coldness.

Scrolling down further, you'll see several photos where Chi Yige strikes very cool poses, especially his hands.

Thinking of something, she suddenly trembled and quickly exited the photo session, only to see the message from Shen Yu.

(Both Chi and your brother are alright, thanks to us. Otherwise, they might have gotten into a fight. Did your brother find out about what happened between you two?)
Then he sent a question mark emoji.

Wen Jinian was taken aback. After thinking for a moment, she felt that she should not have left any flaws, so she replied with an emoji to indicate that she did not know either.

Then, she climbed into bed. Wen Jinnian hadn't been scrolling through her WeChat Moments for more than a few minutes when she heard the doorbell ring.

She was surprised. Had they finished playing pool so quickly?
She shuffled to the door in her slippers, and through the peephole, she saw Fu Yiyi.

Upon opening the door, she saw Fu Yiyi wearing loose pajamas, her face slightly flushed. "Niannian, um, you..."

She followed Fu Yiyi's gaze and glanced around the room, not understanding what she was talking about.

Fu Yiyi asked anxiously, "What size is the one in your room?"

Wen Jinian was completely bewildered and hadn't even reacted when she heard Fu Yiyi walk directly into the room and say, "I'll come in and get it myself."

Wen Jinnian glanced at her and saw that she had already walked to the entrance hall, picked up a set of things, and casually grabbed a medium-sized one, saying, "Lend me a box."

Wen Jinnian's eyes widened, somewhat speechless: "Yiyi, your brother and the others are playing billiards. Shouldn't you and Duan be a little more restrained?"

She figured Chi Yige would notice something was missing from the room tomorrow.

Fu Yiyi said with a smile, "Niannian, this kind of thing is normal when you're in love. Do you think you and my brother can stand it?"

Wen Jinnian was taken aback by his question, thinking to herself how Chi Yige could possibly hold back; he would go to great lengths to coax her.

She coughed lightly, "You... Fu Yiyi, you've gone astray."

Fu Yiyi laughed and said, "Okay, okay, how about I send you the short video?"

Wen Jinian almost dropped her jaw in shock, then coughed lightly: "Aren't you afraid your phone will get a virus?"

"Didn't this get sent to me by a classmate who studied abroad? You've seen it yourself."

Wen Jin recalled that she had mentioned watching adult videos of Japanese women back then, when she and Chi Yige didn't have the relationship they have now.

What did he look like at that time?
It can kill people with a knife.

She shuddered; she was afraid.

She quickly interrupted Fu Yiyi: "Don't say anything more. If your brother finds out, you can just get your marriage certificate."

Upon hearing that she was getting married, Fu Yiyi immediately grabbed her things, turned around, laughed heartily, and said nonchalantly, "I'll stay single for a few years first. Bye."

He even turned back and blew a kiss to Wen Jin.

Wen Jinian closed the door helplessly, lay down on the bed, and tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.

Suddenly, she thought of Fu Yiyi, her personality, and the fact that her comic was missing a subplot. Suddenly, she had an inspiration.

He chuckled and wondered if writing about Yiyi and her boyfriend in the comic would get even more clicks.
Without hesitation, she grabbed her tablet and started drawing.

Moonlight streamed in through the 360-degree floor-to-ceiling windows.

The pen tip moved swiftly across the graphics tablet. She didn't know how long she had been drawing, but when she glanced at her phone screen, it was 2:30 a.m.

Looks like they're going to play pool all night.

On the billiards side, Jiang Shu had already drunk four bottles of Red Bull.

He looked at Chi Yige and was somewhat surprised to find that he was in good spirits.

He asked Chi Yige, "Young Master Chi often stays up late, but his physical condition is quite good."

After Chi Yige bent down and hit a shot, he casually replied, "When you're in a relationship, you always have more energy."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Shu's expression turned somewhat unpleasant.

Shen Yu, who had been dozing off, was now wide awake and almost exposed him.

You don't have good physical health; you just suffer from insomnia.
