Hong Kong Nights of Passion

Chapter 74 Is someone following me?
Chi Yige sneered upon hearing this, "You can give it a try."

Wen Jinnian raised an eyebrow.

With such deep roots in the Hong Kong area, why would Chi Yige need to rely on others?
Lin Daiyu's ridiculous remarks are nothing more than the delusions of a frog in a well.

"My dad always says you're not interested in women, and that we're the perfect match. What does she have besides her face?"

Lin Daiyu scoffed.

Wen Jinnian glanced down at her own figure: "Maybe men are scared of too much wave?"

She retorted in English, and as she raised an eyebrow, she caught a glimpse of Chi Yige's lips curving upwards.

Lin Daiyu's face instantly turned a deep purplish-red.

"What gives you the right?" Lin Daiyu stamped her foot and questioned.

Wen Jinnian smiled faintly and shrugged: "Not interested."

She glanced at Chi Yige, swung her bag around, and said, "You can deal with your own romantic entanglements. I'm going back now."

After saying this, he walked out, but Lin Daiyu opened her arms to stop Chi Yige.

Chi Yige gestured for Shen Yu behind him to follow.

Safety comes first when you're abroad.

After coming out, Wen Jinnian stared at the figure surrounded by men through the glass curtain wall and suddenly asked, "Has he always been so attractive to women?"

Shen Yu was taken aback: "You mean your popularity with the opposite sex? That's just everyday occurrence for me."

He really is a menace.

Wen Jin thought so.

"However, Wen, your feat of holding a megaphone and making a public statement outside the lab has now become a legend in the department."

Wen Jinnian disagreed.

As if remembering something, Shen Yu frowned, "Wen, how did you know about the bet?"

They were just passing by the art studio when they saw Chi Yige stop in front of Wen Jinnian, who was painting at the time.

The school heartthrob, who was known for his aloofness towards women, suddenly changed his personality.

They discussed the bet in a small group chat, but Wen Jinian found out about it.

"Because I love money!"

Wen Jinian responded casually.

Shen Yu had some doubts.

If it were before, he would definitely have believed Wen Jinnian's greed for money.

But ever since she learned of Chi Yige's identity, she has kept her distance.

With her beauty, plus Chi Yige's blatant favoritism that was practically a declaration to the entire Hong Kong district.

With just a wave of her hand or a slight hint, Chi Yige would probably be willing to go through fire and water for her.

Shen Yu smiled and asked, "It's not far from our alma mater, would you like to take a walk around?"

Wen Jinnian shook her head wearily: "Never mind, I'm tired. Where's the hotel?"

Shen Yu said no more and led her to another car.

Half an hour later, when he arrived at the hotel, he was about to ask Chi Yige to book the presidential suite when Wen Jinnian went straight to the front desk, booked a room, and waved her hand without turning her head: "I'm sleepy and want to rest, don't bother me."

After saying that, he entered the elevator, leaving Shen Yu standing there in a daze.

When Chi Yige returned to the hotel, Shen Yu was waiting in the lobby. "Where is he?"

"Is it resolved?" Shen Yu asked.

Shen Yu shrugged: "I booked a room and went to rest."

Chi Yi stepped towards the elevator.

Shen Yu glanced at the bandage on his hand and reminded him, "The wound hasn't fully healed yet, remember to change the gauze."

The elevator stopped on the 8th floor. Chi Yige found room 801 and knocked on the door.

After a long pause, Wen Jinnian finally opened the door: "Where's your wavy-haired beauty?"

Chi Yige chuckled softly: "Wavy-haired beauty? Wen, are you jealous?"

"Who is jealous!"

Wen Jinnian turned her face away.

Chi Yige lowered his gaze, then suddenly leaned closer, his warm breath brushing against her ear: "I think yours is just right."

"Pervert!" Wen Jinnian said angrily, trying to close the door, but Chi Yige quickly stopped it, shaking his injured hand: "The wound is still bleeding, help me change the gauze?"

"Find someone else!"

She snorted coldly, but still stepped aside to let him into the house, while she curled up on the sofa and turned her head away.

Chi Yige squatted down, took her hand, and looked at her intently: "Wen, if you're still angry, I'm really going to kiss you."

Wen Jinian stared at him, trying to pull her hand away, but he gripped it even tighter. "Is this all you're going to do to fool me?"

Chi Yige countered, "Teach me?"

Wen Jinnian suddenly chuckled, a hint of mockery in her eyes: "How could someone as rich and powerful as you fall for me? Could it be that you've had too much experience in love, tasting all sorts of 'delicacies,' and now you find yourself drawn to my milder taste?"

Chi Yige chuckled softly, his chest vibrating with a muffled sound: "Wen, you're just being stubborn, taking advantage of my feelings for you."

He deliberately dragged out the last syllable, "Is it so hard to admit you're jealous?"

Seeing Wen Jin Nian look away, she softened her voice, "I admit my mistake, and I will never let you be jealous like this again."

Wen Jinian's heart skipped a beat.

Does she mind?

After that night's entanglement, she had already subconsciously categorized him as her "private property," but she was simply unwilling to admit it.

“I’m afraid of getting sick,” she said coldly.

Chi Yige suddenly laughed and leaned even closer: "So, Wen, you're admitting that I'm yours?"

Wen Jinnian: "..."

Did she say that?

Finally, the two stayed in the hotel, had lunch, and then Chi Yige took her to the campus.

In just a few months, the campus remained unchanged.

Chi Yige took her hand and strolled from the basketball court to the tree-lined path, searching every corner.

At the end of June, the campus was bustling with people, and passersby stopped to watch.

The two were so conspicuous that whispers could be heard between them.

The two of them were simply too eye-catching.

The two strolled hand in hand across the campus, their intimate demeanor resembling that of a couple deeply in love.

Wen Jinnian stared at his profile, momentarily disoriented and unable to distinguish reality from illusion.

They first clashed a few months ago, and she swiftly knocked him unconscious, but now they are so close.

She stopped in the shade of a tree, looked up and met those deep eyes: "Our first meeting wasn't in the lab, was it?"

Chi Yige smiled mysteriously and squeezed her hand: "Next time I go back to China, I'll take you to the place where we first met."

Without waiting for a reply, he pulled her toward the shimmering lake. The setting sun cast long shadows of the two of them, which overlapped and swayed together.

After wandering around for a long time, the two went to a small shop outside the school.

Wen Jinnian bought two ice creams. When she scanned the code, the shop owner looked her over and said, "You look familiar, classmate."

Wen Jinian casually responded with a few words.

He handed one to Chi Yige.

As they ate, they walked into the alley. Suddenly, Chi Yige gripped her hand tightly: "Are you scared because someone is following us?"

Wen Jin's heart tightened, and she was about to turn around when he stopped her in a low voice: "Listen to me count to three, then run to the end of the alley."

She nodded, and after their eyes met, they tacitly took off running.

Several men were hot on their heels, but Chi Yige turned his head and chuckled, "I won't let anything happen to you."

"You forgot? I know Taekwondo?"

The two ran into the alley and hid around the corner.

Wen Jinnian picked up two wooden sticks from the wall and handed one to Chi Yige: "I'll go first, your hand injury hasn't healed yet."

He didn't reply, but a smile appeared in his eyes.

Wen Jinian glared at him and then held her breath, listening to the footsteps.

As the pursuer ran past from the side, Wen Jinnian twirled the wooden stick in her palm and said, "Hey."

The group turned around abruptly and saw her leaning against the corner of the wall, tapping her palm with a wooden stick, a cold smile on her lips.
