Hong Kong Island is brightly lit late at night.

Guan Zu drove his red Ferrari into the bustling street.

Qiu Di looked out the car window and sat quietly in the passenger seat. Although this was her first time riding in such a nice car, it didn't stop her from knowing about it. Many of her girlfriends who worked at the beer shop had already explained it to her.

From the moment she got into the car, she knew the difference in status between her and this man, and the slight ripple in her heart caused by his good looks gradually calmed down.

She didn't think that Guan Zu was rich and that's why she was thinking about him. She just felt inferior and thought she might not be good enough for him.

The atmosphere in the car was somewhat quiet. Guan Zu glanced at Qiu Di in the passenger seat. This girl hadn't said a word since she got in the car, nor had she said where she was going. She just sat there quietly.

"Hey Qiudi, where do you live?"

"Ah, oh, I live in Sham Shui Po!" Qiu Di was lost in thought when she suddenly heard Guan Zu's question. She quickly answered, and a blush rose on her pretty face.

Guan Zu turned the car around and drove towards Sham Shui Po.

"By the way, what are you doing at the police station?" Guan Zu could only try to start a conversation.

"I have a colleague who got into a conflict and was brought here. I'm an eyewitness, here to give my statement." Qiu Di lowered her head, her hands constantly rubbing her fingers.

Guan Zu asked curiously, "Then why did you come out alone? Where are your colleagues?"

Qiu Di continued rubbing her fingers: "She was taken away by her family." She then looked up at Guan Zu.

Curious, he asked, "And you, what are you doing at the police station?"

"I'm here for the interview!"

"An interview? You're a police officer?" Qiu Di stared wide-eyed at Guan Zu.

"No, but soon, I passed the interview!" Guan Zu gestured with his chin towards Qiu Di.

"Huh?" Qiu Di's mind was a little confused. She really couldn't understand why anyone would drive a Ferrari to the police station for a police interview late at night!

"What? It doesn't look like it?" Guan Zu found Qiu Di's surprised expression somewhat amusing.

"No, I heard that all the police officers here are graduates of the police academy, and why are you so late?" Qiu Di stopped rubbing her fingers and looked at Guan Zu to ask.

Guan Zu adjusted the car's direction, and while waiting at a red light, he turned to Qiu Di and said, "Dude, I'm a genius, I get special treatment! No need to go to police academy, I'll go straight to the BOSS."

"Oh!" Qiu Di blushed again as Guan Zu stared at her. She lowered her head and dared not speak.

The two continued like this throughout the journey, with Guan Zu asking questions and Qiu Di answering.

In just over ten minutes, Guan Zu had extracted all of Qiu Di's personal information.

Born in Hong Kong Island and raised in mainland China, she came to Hong Kong Island to stay with her father after her mother passed away unexpectedly two years ago. However, her father already had a family and simply sent her away.

And so, Qiu Di lived alone on Hong Kong Island. She did odd jobs during the day and sold beer at bars at night, earning the nickname "beer girl!"

Kwan Cho parked his car in front of an old-style apartment building in Sham Shui Po.

Qiu Di thanked Guan Zu and opened the car door to get out, but the car was too low. When she tried to get out, her foot started to hurt again, and she frowned, unable to get out.

Seeing this, Guan Zu quickly got out of the car and ran to the passenger door: "Let me carry you up, you can't walk like this."

Qiu nodded and obediently hooked her arms around Guan Zu's neck, then was carried on Guan Zu's back.

Under Qiu Di's direction, Guan Zu went upstairs. When he arrived at Qiu Di's door, Guan Zu noticed something was wrong; the door seemed to be ajar.

Slowly lower Qiudi down from his back, put his index finger to his lips, and made a "shh" gesture!

Then, he gently pushed open the door and, seeing that no one was in the room, breathed a sigh of relief.

The two turned on the lights and went inside. The whole house was in a mess, with all sorts of things scattered all over the floor.

Guan Zu looked at Qiu Di, who was too shocked to speak, and said, "Don't rush, sit down first!" He then slowly helped her sit down.

Looking around, he asked, "Do you usually live alone?"

"Hmm," Qiu Di was almost in tears, completely at a loss for what to do.

"Where is your father? Has he come? Or do you have any other friends?" Guan Zu asked.

Qiu Di suppressed her unease. "No, I don't have many friends, and I've never brought any friends home before. You're the first. My father doesn't know I live here. We haven't seen each other since that woman from his family kicked me out."

Guan Zu paced back and forth a few more times: "It looks like a thief has broken in. I'll call the police!"

"Hmm," Qiu Di was completely at a loss at this point.

After Guan Zu finished making the call to the police, he turned around and saw Qiu Di covering her face and crying softly. He walked over to her and gently put his arm around her, saying, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."

Qiu Di reached out and hugged Guan Zu, burying her face in Guan Zu's shirt, and cried louder and louder.

For some reason, Qiu Di felt particularly dependent on the man she was holding at that moment.

In this city where she knew no one, this man she had only recently met carried her home on his back, chatting with her in his familiar Mandarin along the way and trying to cheer her up.

With this incident happening at home again, this man gave her a long-lost sense of security.

At this moment, Qiu Di didn't want to think about anything—the difference in status, Ferraris, or being a rich second-generation.

None of that matters!

All she wanted to do was hold this man and cry her heart out, venting all the grievances she had suffered over the past two years.

Guan Zu didn't say anything, he just held her quietly.

By the time Guan Zu saw off the police who had finished taking his statement, it was already midnight.

Qiu Di's emotions had stabilized by now, but her red, tear-filled eyes were fixed on Guan Zu, as if she wanted to say something but couldn't.

Guan Zu looked into those beautiful, large eyes: "What? Scared?"

Qiu Di nodded, looking at Guan Zu expectantly.

Guan Zu tentatively asked, "Your place doesn't seem safe, why don't you come stay at my place?"

Qiu Di's face turned red again. In the few hours since she met Guan Zu, it felt like Qiu Di's face had turned red countless times.

"Not going to say anything? Then I'll be going, it's getting late." Guan Zu joked with a smile.

"Oh my god!" Qiu Di turned her head to the side, not daring to look at Guan Zu.

Guan Zu walked up to Qiu Di, squatted down with his back to her, and said, "Come on, get on, let's go!"

Qiu Di hugged Guan Zu's neck once again.

After the two went downstairs, Qiu Di realized, "Oh dear, I didn't bring anything!"

"No need to bring it! I have everything I need!" Guan Zu said, opening the car door and putting Qiu Di into the car.

In an apartment on Nathan Road.

Qiu Di, who had just finished showering, was wearing Guan Zu's shirt and sitting on the sofa. One of her long, straight, white legs was stretched out, and Guan Zu, who was sitting next to her, was rubbing her fair ankle on his lap.

Guan Zu patted his ankle in his hand: "Alright, the massage should be almost done. Try moving it around, is it better?"

As soon as the words were spoken, the owner of the foot immediately withdrew it.

"I feel much better, thank you!" Qiu Di lowered her head, not daring to look at Guan Zu.

Guan Zu was overjoyed to see her shy expression.

Neither of them spoke; they just sat there quietly.

"Gurgle!" A sound broke the ambiguous atmosphere in the room.

Guan Zu looked in the direction of the sound and saw Qiu Di covering her stomach with one hand and her face with the other, looking as if she didn't want him to see her.

Guan Zu smiled and said, "I'm hungry. I'll go cook some egg noodles. Do you want some?" He then got up and walked towards the kitchen.

Guan Zu skillfully performed the noodle-cooking process: slicing luncheon meat, frying eggs, boiling water, and cooking noodles.

Just as Guan Zu put the dough into the pan, he heard footsteps behind him.

Without turning around, she stirred the noodles in the pot with her chopsticks, saying, "Are you getting impatient? Three minutes, just three more minutes and it'll be ready to eat!"

The voice just fell,

Guan Zu felt himself being hugged tightly from behind, with a face pressed against his back, and he could feel the warmth of someone's breath on his back.

Then Qiu Di's voice came: "Thank you! Ah Zu!"

Guan Zu smiled but didn't say anything, letting her hold him as he continued stirring the noodles in the pot.

When Guan Zu finished cleaning up the kitchen and returned to the living room, Qiu Di was already asleep on the sofa.

Looking at Qiu Di's stunningly beautiful face, which resembles Fan Bingbing's, and thinking about what Qiu Di has experienced in the past few years, I felt a little heartache for her.

Guan Zu deeply understood Qiu Di's dependence on him, for he himself was no different.

To be honest, Guan Zu at the beginning was definitely lustful at first sight; he was simply attracted to the girl's beauty.

After spending the night together, the girl, who spoke to him in Mandarin all night, eliminated his sense of alienation from the world he had come into.

On this night, two lonely souls slowly drew closer and became each other's reliance.
