Beijing-Hong Kong Confession

Chapter 184 Pure Feelings

"Grandpa Meng calls you Xiao He, and Grandma Meng calls you Zhou Zhou."

Zhu Xia said, "These two names don't sound like they fit your temperament at all."

"What's inconsistent?" He Lianzhou asked.

"Well... Xiao He, Zhou Zhou sounds like a young, immature boy, completely opposite to you." Zhu Xia replied.

Hearing this, He Lianzhou lifted his eyelids slightly, stared at her, and asked, "Do you dislike my age?"

The man’s pupils were dark, and when he wasn’t smiling, they looked cold and distant, like a bottomless ocean.

Zhu Xia hurriedly shook her head: "I'm praising you for being mature and steady."

"What age do you like?" He Lianzhou looked into her clear and beautiful eyes and said calmly, "Change the age."

Seeing that he looked calm and indifferent, yet was saying unreasonable things, Zhu Xia leaned forward, hugged his strong shoulders, and said with a smile: "Don't you think the two of us are just right?"

They are four years apart. No more, no less.

Zhu Xia thought that if she married Song Chengyu, the legal age difference between her and her husband would also be four years... Of course, she couldn't say this divergent thought out loud.

He Lianzhou put his long arms around her and gently stroked the back of her head with his big hands.

"I have to go back tonight and accompany grandpa to attend the group worship tomorrow." Zhu Xia rubbed his shoulder with her face and said slowly.

"Have you decided to teach at the University of Hong Kong?" He Lianzhou asked.

"It's not a full-time job, I was just invited to share a few cases." Zhu Xia said, "The Faculty of Medicine of the University of Hong Kong and its affiliated colleges and Queen Mary Hospital are located on the Sassoon Road campus, not on the main campus. I will probably go directly to the Sassoon Road campus."

Even if she has to go to the main campus first, she doesn't have to worry. HKU has a school bus that provides convenient transportation for students and staff to travel between campuses.

Zhuxia is taught entirely in English, so you don’t have to worry about the language. More than 90% of the teaching language at HKU is English, and only a few specific courses are taught in Mandarin or Cantonese.

He said "hmm" but didn't ask any questions. Zhu Xia was a little surprised and asked, "Don't you think my behavior is abnormal?"

"I don't think so. You give people the feeling that you often go against expectations."

Zhu Xia wrinkled her nose and said in frustration, "You're so annoying."

He Lianzhou laughed: "What's annoying?"

"You said I was different." Zhu Xia said.

"I'm praising you for often giving people surprises," said He Lianzhou.

"Oh." Zhu Xia didn't believe it.

"Are you angry?" He Lianzhou rubbed her head and asked in a low voice.

"Do you want me to be angry?" Zhu Xia asked back.

"I want you to do something else." He tilted his face and whispered in her ear.

The hot and humid breath touched his ears. Zhu Xia dodged and pinched his back with his fingers a little harder.

He Lianzhou noticed it and smiled.

Zhu Xia thought carefully about the past, pondered it over and over again, and magnified the details... She could never have guessed that he was so frivolous.

Of course, she also didn't guess his attitude towards his girlfriend.

Zhu Xia has a habit of considering advantages most of the time and disadvantages a small part of the time. For some important things, she will study and review them over and over again.

Therefore, during the time she was with He Lianzhou, she was able to analyze every subtle change in his breath, movements, body odor, body temperature, etc.

The impression He Lianzhou gives people when he is in love is very different from his usual impression.

The sense of oppression, carelessness, relaxation and indifference of the superior disappeared, and was replaced by cautiousness.

Be careful.

This word, which had nothing to do with him in his entire life, appeared on him.

Quite scary.

What Zhu Xia lacked the least was the courage to move forward. She was not scared and started an underground relationship with him very naturally.

It's a very pure love, without any other benefits or exploitation.

…Well, actually it’s very pure now.

Pure feelings, pure relationships.

No one spoke, and the car was quiet. The sound of snow hitting the car could be heard faintly. He Lianzhou let go of Zhu Xia, fastened his seat belt, and started the engine. The road was slippery on snowy days, so she specifically asked him to drive slowly.

The car was moving slowly. Zhu Xia leaned back in the chair, occasionally looking outside the car. The snow looked like broken thin lines under the illumination of the car lights. Occasionally she retracted her gaze to look at the man beside her.

He Lianzhou noticed it, stretched out his arm to pull her hand, and held it in his palm. Zhu Xia saw that he was calm and drove skillfully with one hand, so she didn't pull her hand back.

The car stopped at the gate of the Song Mansion. Zhu Xia unbuckled his seat belt, leaned over, kissed him on the lips, and said, "I'm going home. Be careful on the road."

A faint light came from the opposite side, gradually approaching. He Lianzhou nodded, glanced at the opposite side nonchalantly, and suddenly grabbed Zhu Xiahou's neck with his big hand to prevent her from leaving.

Zhu Xia didn't understand what was going on. She opened her mouth to ask, but the man leaned over without warning and bit her lips fiercely.

Zhu Xia pursed her lips, feeling a little numb and painful. Seeing him unbuckle his seat belt slowly, she was about to tell him not to get out of the car as it was snowing and cold outside, but he had already come over with a black umbrella and opened the door for her.

Zhu Xia sighed.

She got out of the car and closed the door.

The black Bentley originally drove straight into the door and parked in the garage, but this time it was parked at the door abnormally.

The windows of the driver's seat and the back seat were lowered at the same time. Old Xu looked at the two young people standing in the snow and raised his voice, "Miss!"

Zhu Xia looked in the direction of the voice and first met the gaze of Song Chengyu who was looking over from the back seat. Then he moved his gaze as if nothing had happened and said to Old Xu, "Uncle Xu." Then he said to Song Chengyu, "Third Brother."

Old Xu has been in the Song family for many years and is familiar with Zhu Xia and Song Chengyu's situations. It is not convenient for him to interfere too much, so he just asked if he wanted him to give him a ride.

The gate is still some distance away from the villa.

Zhu Xia refused and said, "You guys go in first, I need to stay for a while."

Song Chengyu's eyes swept over their tightly clasped hands and the man beside her, his expression hardly changing. Only when Old Xu drove the car in did he frown.

"Hurry up and get in the car." Zhu Xia pushed He Lianzhou into the car. She took his umbrella and stood outside the car. She tilted her head to look inside the car and said again, "Be careful on the road."

"You go in and I'll leave first," said He Lianzhou.

"OK then."

Zhu Xia held an umbrella and walked to the door. The guard greeted her and she responded. She stopped where she was, turned around and looked at the motionless car, raised her hand and waved.

She couldn't see into the car, but he certainly could see her.

Zhu Xia waved a few times before heading towards the villa. He passed by a quiet ecological park, crossed the frozen fountain, and arrived at the villa.

Old Master Song was very angry because his grandchildren were disobedient. During the dinner tonight, no one among the dozen people dared to speak loudly.

Zhu Xia never speaks while eating. After she finished her meal, she looked at her phone and saw a message from He Lianzhou asking her if she had finished her meal.

She replied to him: "I'm done eating and I'm going to talk to grandpa." Then she took the after-meal fruit cut by Aunt Zhao, went upstairs, stood at the door of the study, and knocked.
