Jessica Jones got into the passenger seat without hesitation.
"I'm very curious, what kind of novels have you written that are so profitable?"
In just a few days, Hao Longtao's display of wealth aroused Jessica Jones's strong gossipy nature.
Hao Longtao leaned closer and whispered the book's title.
Jessica Jones stared wide-eyed, her eyes smoky and dark, as if to say, "Are you kidding me?"
"No, you've only recently come of age."
"You said you're the author of 'Fifty Shades of Grey'?"
How did you write it?
Jessica Jones asked a series of incredible questions.
"Keep this a secret. If word gets out, I'll be in big trouble."
Hao Longtao blinked, but asked Jessica Jones to keep it a secret.
"Tsk tsk, I can't believe I know you, you freakish writer. If word got out, the entire American media, no, the global media, would be in an uproar."
Jessica Jones smiled broadly, seemingly imagining the sensation this news would cause if it got out.
However, she is a very secretive person.
I would never go around spreading rumors.
After all, she is, in a way, an unconventional hero hidden in Hell's Kitchen.
They possess superhuman strength.
"Aren't you worried that your agent or lawyer will sell you out?"
Jessica Jones suddenly asked.
Hao Longtao laughed:
“My lawyer is blind, and he also has secrets that I have.”
Jessica Jones raised an eyebrow slightly:
"Matt?"
The blind lawyer in Hell's Kitchen is no nobody.
Hao Longtao did not say.
This was something Jessica Jones herself guessed.
I drove to a high-end apartment on Parkloo Street.
Real estate agent Julia, dressed in a business suit, attracted the attention of many men with her sexy and alluring figure.
She had been waiting for Hao Longtao for quite some time.
"Mr. Hao, the transfer of ownership has been completed for you. You can move in directly."
"Thank you, Miss Julia."
Hao Longtao smiled as he took the apartment key from Julia.
Julia ran her fingers lightly across Hao Longtao's palm, gave a sly smile, and left the apartment complex.
Jessica Jones smiled knowingly:
"Hao, it seems I've interrupted your good time."
Hao Longtao shrugged:
"You know I'm an adult."
Jessica Jones finally came to her senses.
She always treated Hao Longtao as a minor.
But Julia's seduction made her somewhat reminisce.
Hao Longtao has grown up.
His change made Jessica Jones realize that the Boy she used to know had changed.
Despite being only eighteen years old, he exudes maturity and composure, without the impetuousness of a teenager.
He is more like an elite who has experienced the trials of society.
"It's getting dark. I had Julia prepare a lot of dishes. Let me treat you to this meal; I'll cook it myself."
Hao Longtao smiled at Jessica Jones, who was in a daze.
Jessica Jones is a very attractive and delicate woman.
Her black hair and unique smoky eyes, with their bright, captivating gaze, told a story.
Her high, straight nose and cherry-like lips perfectly align with the aesthetic standards of Eastern people.
But her height is 175cm.
The Jessica Jones in front of Hao Longtao looked exactly like the actress Kristen Ritter he had seen portraying her in movies.
"I can't wait to try your cooking."
Jessica Jones smiled.
What are you thinking? How could that be?
I still have a lot of things to deal with.
As for age, she doesn't care about it at all.
The two carried their luggage into the elevator.
Like Jessica Jones, she is a superhuman with amazing strength, speed, and stamina.
Hao Longtao was naturally aware of all this.
Jessica Jones also knew that he knew her abilities.
The two had known each other for over two years and were considered good friends.
However, when Hao Longtao met with her, he mostly pestered Jessica Jones to find the real killer of his parents.
The apartment is on the top floor, a two-story duplex with a large rooftop balcony.
When Jessica Jones first arrived at the upscale apartment, her eyes lit up.
"The scenery is nice, and the decor is pretty good."
Its understated luxury style is eye-catching.
Compared to the apartments in Hell's Kitchen, it's like the difference between a mansion and a doghouse.
“When Julia showed me this house, I fell in love with it at first sight. The owner is a Wall Street stockbroker, and he put a lot of effort into this house. However, he was unlucky and misappropriated a large amount of funds to buy Stark Industries, losing a lot of money. I thought the deal would fall through when Tony Stark returned, especially since Stark Industries' stock price surged on Friday, giving him hope.”
Hao Longtao laughed, a very happy laugh.
Jessica Jones raised an eyebrow:
"He suffered a huge loss today. I heard that Stark Industries fell by 40 percent. The shareholders were all ripped off by our capricious billionaire Tony."
"So the owner of this house urgently needs money, and it has to be cash, to cover the losses in the stock market."
Hao Longtao poured a glass of water for Jessica Jones:
"Have a glass of water, wait a moment, and I'll grill you a Wagyu steak, okay?"
Jessica Jones' eyes brightened slightly:
"I thought you were going to cook Chinese food."
Hao Longtao replied:
"Chinese food takes too much time to prepare, and I don't want to just throw together some random dishes to fool you. Besides, I welcome you to my apartment anytime; that's when I can really show off my skills. Tonight won't work; you missed dinner while moving for me, and you must be hungry. I can't let a beautiful lady wait for me on an empty stomach."
Jessica Jones was slightly dazed; at this moment, she no longer recognized the Chinese man in front of her.
Instead, they felt that the other person was a mature and steady gentleman.
Hao Longtao took out the groceries Julia had bought from the refrigerator.
I'm considered one of Julia's major clients, so she can handle this kind of thing.
The top-grade marbled beef from Japan cost Hao Longtao a lot of money.
Actually, Hao Longtao wanted to cook a Chinese meal to celebrate moving into his new house.
But he couldn't let Julia go to the Chinese market to buy a bunch of ingredients.
Then we'll have to keep it simple.
The steak is cooked and set on the table.
Hao Longtao took a bottle of fine wine from the wine rack.
"A 1991 Harlan red wine, which is the best vintage wine from Harlan Winery. It seems that the original owner of this house was quite thoughtful to leave this bottle to me to celebrate my move into my new home, so that I wouldn't be unable to buy any wine at my age."
His handsome face, with a warm smile, surprised Jessica Jones.
She looked at Hao Longtao with a smile in her eyes: "If you want to do community service, I won't stop you from drinking."
The United States is one of the few countries in the world that sets a lower age limit for drinking alcohol.
And she's 21 years old.
Drinking underage can lead to prosecution, with the most common punishment being community service.
"This is my home. If you don't tell me, and I don't tell you, who will know?"
Hao Longtao flashed a charming smile.
Chapter Seven: Mental Immunity, Facing Gwen
Jessica Jones stretched and found herself in an unfamiliar environment.
But soon, she realized something.
In a dazed state from being drunk, she suddenly woke up with a start.
Numerous fragments of memory surfaced in my mind.
This is Hao Longtao's home.
He pulled back the covers, covering his face with a look of utter helplessness.
But thinking back to last night's madness, Jessica Jones gave a wry smile.
"However, Hao Tingqiang is strong."
Jessica Jones is also an expert in this area.
Since escaping the control of the Purple Man, the trauma in her heart has led her to often soak in alcohol jars.
It's not surprising that someone would end up drunk and sleeping at a stranger's house like this.
I threw back the covers, picked up my clothes scattered on the floor, went into the bathroom, and started taking a shower.
When Jessica Jones came out and found the freezer, she saw a note stuck to it:
"I've prepared some plum juice for you to help with your hangover, and it's in the freezer. I've also prepared breakfast for you, and it's on the table. Please enjoy, Jessica."
Jessica Jones had no idea what plum juice was.
Upon opening the freezer, a large glass of dark purple juice caught her eye in the most prominent spot.
He picked up the 'sour plum juice' and took a big gulp.
It was instantly refreshing, and the sweet and sour taste made Jessica Jones' eyes light up. It was delicious.
Find the dining table.
Looking at the dining table, Jessica Jones gave a wry smile.
This table left a deep impression on her. Last night, after the two of them had been drinking, they couldn't help themselves and turned the dining table into a battlefield.
But Jessica Jones is not a germaphobe.
Meat porridge, pickled vegetables, eggs, and sandwiches.
