Rebirth: Rising Hong Kong

CH 180 CH 0179【Shakespeare】

The boat floats on the sea.

Shi Zhijian was wearing a shirt, took off his wet suit jacket, squatted on the bow of the boat and wrung it dry with both hands.

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

Belletti was a little bored and was writing and drawing on the deck with a piece of chalk she found somewhere.

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

"You guessed it! I'm the head of our drama club. I've been in A Midsummer Night's Dream, and The Merchant of Venice."

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

Boleti raised her head and glanced at Shi Zhijian: "When did you realize that I was acting?"

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

"How did you get it?"

"It's impossible for a kidnapped girl's heartbeat to 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?"

"Act with you!" Shi Zhijian paused, "It can be seen that your life must be very boring and boring, without any passion."

"You guessed it!" Boletti put her feet together, straightened her skirt and sat on the deck, "My father is a very old-fashioned man, and everything in his life is rigid, what time to get up in the morning to eat, what time Going to work, when to go home at noon, when to go to bed at night, everything is fully planned."

I smiled wryly, "Don't laugh when you say it, since I was a child, I haven't changed the menu very much. I eat pizza borscht on Monday, ham sandwich on Tuesday, steak 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, "It's understandable, too perfect a plan is a disaster! You may not believe it, I've seen a movie, and some people even set a time for farting!"

"Pfft!" Boleti smiled, and glanced at Shi Zhijian with her beautiful eyes, "How can there be such a person in the world? Why haven't I watched this movie? You're lying to me again!"

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

Since her mother passed away, she has had few happy days. Originally, she 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 boring and very mechanical life.

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

She knows that her father has a weird temper, and many people don't like him. Even the maids at home often complain about his old-fashionedness and accuse him of being from the eighteenth century. Now if even his own daughter leaves him , then he really became a loner.

"You approached me on purpose, and you gave me that precious vinyl record to get close to my father, right?"

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

"Your name is Shi Zhijian, and the person who caused my father the most headache recently is also called Shi Zhijian." Boleti smiled, "There should be no such coincidence in this world, right?"

Shi Zhijian nodded, took another sip of the Wujiapi that he had taken a few mouthfuls of before, and suddenly a spicy rush rose 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 still need your help. I want to meet him." Shi Zhijian said, and handed the Wujiapi to Boleti, "Come on Take a sip, our Chinese whiskey!"

Boleti gave Shi Zhijian a blank look: "You treat me as illiterate!" She picked up the words while she was speaking, first wiped the mouth of the bottle with her hand, then took a small sip, and then said with pain on her face, "It's so spicy!"

Shi Zhijian laughed, "You still dislike me? I've hit you just now!"

Boleti rolled his eyes at him again: "You can help me if you want, but I have a request!"

Shi Zhijian scratched the bridge of his nose with his hands: "Hey, you can ask for anything, but you must not be greedy for me!"

"Good idea!" Boleti glared at him, "My request is that I want to join your company and be your assistant!"

"Huh? Did I hear you wrong? You actually do such a loss-making business?"

"Of course I lost money! I am a majestic Cambridge college student with a Ph.D. in business management. It is a shame to be an administrative assistant in a company as small as yours!"

"Then you still want to do it?"

"I do!"

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

"Want to know? Come here—" Boleti smiled and hooked her finger at Shi Zhijian.

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

Boleti waited until Shi Zhijian approached, pressed him under her body, looked into Shi Zhijian's eyes with her beautiful eyes, and said, "Because I—— like you!"

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

"Really? What's wrong? Don't tell me I didn't attract you at all?" Boleti turned over with a look of surprise.

Shi Zhijian was lying on the deck, looking at the sky with one arm on his pillow, and said slowly, "Don't look at me as young, but I know 'Shakespeare'!"

...

the next day.

It's another weekend.

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

Daughter Belletti hadn't come yet, and she said she was going to surprise him and bring a friend over to let him know.

Paligo does not object to his daughter making friends outside, on the contrary, he hopes that his daughter can make more friends.

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

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

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

He fell in love with her immediately.

She also fell in love with him.

Therefore, they are always present in the sun on the beach, the moon and the moon.

But their love is not blessed by the world.

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

And she is just a singing girl in the dance hall.

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

Perrigo remembers the look of surprise on her face when he told her it was an Italian restaurant, not a French or British one.

She told Baili Gao that she always thought that all western restaurants were the same, and ghosts only ate steak and bread!

At that time, Baili Gao almost burst into tears from laughter.

Unfortunately, the good times are short-lived.

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

Those aristocratic women laughed at her, satirizing her humble origins.

She was depressed, and finally passed away shortly after giving birth to her daughter Belletti.

He remembered how she looked when she was leaving, they held each other's hands, she said to him: "I have never regretted it! Even if I lose the whole world and be isolated by the whole world, as long as I have you by my side, I will be very happy! "

"Are you really happy?" Thinking of this, Bai Ligao couldn't bear the heartache anymore, and took out a handkerchief from his arms to wipe the red corners of his eyes.

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

Bai Ligao raised his head, but saw his daughter Bai Lidi was walking towards this side with a man accompanied by a smile.

The man was wearing a white suit, with a straight figure and a sunny smile on his face.

"It's rare for Boleti to be handed over to such an excellent boy! It's also rare to see her smile so happily!"

Just when Bai Ligao sighed secretly, the man in white had already walked in front of him.

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