Rebirth: Rising Hong Kong

The boat floats on the sea.

Shi Zhijian was wearing a shirt, took off his wet suit jacket, crouched on the bow of the boat and wringed out his hands.

The water droplets crashed into the sea, causing a circle of ripples.

Prettier was writing on the deck with a piece of chalk that she had found out of nowhere.

Shi Zhijian turned around and asked her, "In addition to studying business management at Cambridge University, have you also studied stage performance?"

"You guessed it! I'm the backbone of our theatre club. I've played A Midsummer Night's Dream and The Merchant of Venice."

"No wonder, the acting is superb!" Shi Zhijian gave a thumbs up.

Bella Di raised her head and glanced at Shi Zhijian: "When did you find out that I was acting?"

"When you and I are tied together, face to face, mouth to mouth."

"How did you get it?"

"The heartbeat of a kidnapped girl can't be so calm." Shi Zhijian replied, "Also, as you said, you are studying business management, how can such a person be a fool?"

"Since you can see it, why don't you expose me?"

"Accompany you to act!" Shi Zhijian paused, "I can see that your life must be boring, boring, and without the slightest passion."

"You guessed it!" Bella Di put her feet together, tidied up her skirt and sat on the deck, "My father is a very old-fashioned person, everything in his life is stick to the rules, what time to get up in the morning to eat, what time Going to work, when to go home at noon, and what time to go to bed at night, all are fully planned.”

He smiled bitterly, "Don't laugh when you say it, I haven't changed the recipes since I was a kid, I have pizza borsch on Monday, ham sandwich on Tuesday, and steak and salad on Wednesday... I go to Venice restaurant to eat Italian food on weekends-- - Now I feel like throwing up when I see those dishes!"

Shi Zhijian nodded, "Understandably, a plan that is too perfect is a disaster! You may not believe it if you say it, I have seen a movie, and some people even set a time for when to fart!"

"Pfft!" Bella Di laughed, and Mei Mei glanced at Shi Zhijian, "How can there be such a person in the world? Why haven't I watched this drama? You are lying to me again!"

After a pause, "Thank you anyway, I'm very happy today!" After speaking, the corners of his eyes were a little wet.

She has had few happy days since her mother died. She originally wanted to stay in the UK, but was forced by her father to come to Hong Kong.

Under the supervision of his father, he lived a dull and very mechanical life.

She wanted to walk away and say goodbye to this kind of life, but she was a filial daughter, and she couldn't bear her father, and she couldn't bear him to stay in Hong Kong alone.

She knew that her father had a quirky temper, and many people disliked him. Even the housemaid often complained about his old-fashioned and conservative attitudes, scolding him for being from the 18th century, and if even his own daughter left him now , then he really became a loner.

"You approached me on purpose, and you were willing to give me that precious vinyl record to approach my father, right?"

"How do you know?" Shi Zhijian shook his wringed clothes, and then put them on, feeling cold for a while.

"Your name is Shi Zhijian, and the person who gave my father the most trouble recently happened to be called Shi Zhijian." Bella Di smiled, "There shouldn't be such a coincidence in this world, right?"

Shi Zhijian nodded, picked up the Wujiapi that he had taken a few sips before, and took another sip. Suddenly, a gust of acrid jumped up from his chest and abdomen, dispelling a lot of cold air from his body.

"That's right, I'm the Shi Zhijian who offended your father, so I want to ask you for help. I want to meet him." One sip, our Chinese whisky!"

Bella Di rolled her eyes at Shi Zhijian: "You think I'm illiterate!" After speaking, she accepted it, first wiping the mouth of the bottle with her hand, then took a small sip, and then her face was full of discomfort, "It's so spicy!"

Shi Zhijian laughed, "You still despise me? You've been beaten just now!"

Bella Di gave him another look: "You can help me if you want, but I have a request!"

Shi Zhijian scratched the bridge of his nose with his hand: "Hey, you can ask for anything, but don't be greedy for me!"

"Thinking beautifully!" Bella Di glared at him, "My request is that I want to join your company and be your assistant!"

"Eh? Did I hear it wrong? You're doing this kind of business at a loss?"

"Of course I lost money! I'm a dignified Cambridge university student with a Ph.D. in business management. It's a shame to be an administrative assistant in a company as small as yours!"

"Then you still do it?"

"I do!"

"There must be some purpose, say it and listen!"

"Want to know? You come here-----" Bella Tie hooked her finger at Shi Zhijian with a smile.

Shi Zhijian leaned over: "Come on, let me listen."

Belletti waited until Shi Zhijian approached and pressed him under her body, Mei Mu looked into Shi Zhijian's eyes and said, "Because I---- love you!"

Shi Zhijian was stunned for a moment, and said, "This time you acted badly!"

"Really? What's wrong? Am I not attracted to you at all?" Belletti turned over, looking surprised.

Shi Zhijian lay on the deck, looked at the sky with one arm on his head, and said slowly: "Don't look at me young, but I know 'Shakespeare'!"

...

the next day.

It's another weekend.

According to the habit, the senior consultant of the Water Supplies Department, Berrigao, came to the familiar "Venice Restaurant" again to taste the Italian food here.

Daughter Bella Di has not come yet. She said she would give him a surprise and bring a friend over to meet him.

Bai Ligao does not object to his daughter making friends outside. On the contrary, he hopes that her daughter can make more friends.

He himself is withdrawn and not very gregarious, so he understands the feeling of loneliness and loneliness, and he hopes that his daughter will not be like him.

Because his daughter is his lifeblood, and it is the last entrustment of his deceased wife to him.

It was here that he and the beautiful and dignified Chinese wife met.

He fell in love with her right away.

She also liked him.

Therefore, the sun on the beach and the moon before the flowers all have their presence.

But their love was not blessed by the world.

He was born in the British Royal Navy and was a nobleman.

And she's just a singer in the ballroom.

That day, it was the first time she sneaked out, the first time she came to the legendary foreigner restaurant, and the first time she used the money she had saved to taste the legendary western food.

Berrigao remembered the stunned look on her face when he told her it was an Italian restaurant, not a French or English restaurant.

She told Bai Ligao that she always thought that all western restaurants were the same, and that ghosts only eat steak and bread!

That time, Bai Ligao almost burst into tears.

Unfortunately, the good days are short-lived.

When she married him, her bright smile disappeared, and she couldn't fit into the group of noble ladies.

Those noble women laughed at her, mocking her from a humble background.

She was unhappy and finally left the world shortly after giving birth to her daughter, Bella Di.

He remembered how she looked when she was leaving~www.readwn.com~ They held each other's hands and she said to him: "I never regret it! Even if I lost the whole world and was isolated by the whole world, as long as you are there Beside you, you will be very happy!"

"Are you really happy?" Bai Ligao thought of this, and couldn't hold back her heartache any longer. She took out a handkerchief from her arms and wiped the corners of her red eyes.

At this moment, a silver bell-like voice said: "Father, I brought my friend!"

Bai Ligao raised her head, but saw her daughter, Bai Ledi, smiling and accompanying a man walking towards him.

I saw the man wearing a white suit, with a straight body and a sunny smile on his face.

"It's rare for Belle Di to meet such a good boy! It's rare to see her with such a happy smile!"

Just when Bai Ligao sighed to himself, the man in white had already walked up to him.

Bai Ligao saw the other party's face clearly, and the smile on his face slowly condensed, "Uh, how is it you?!"
