Chapter Nine Hundred and Fortieth Official Visit to the Gambling King

I have to say that Xia Yu's proposal at the beginning of the year gave MacLehose a great shock. In addition to the daily work of the Hong Kong government, MacLehose held high-level meetings one after another to discuss Xia Yu's related proposals.

The first thing that came to fruition was the expansion of Jiuding University, which was almost going through the motions.

Although some people disagreed, most people still saw the thoughts of Hong Kong Governor MacLehose and agreed to the expansion of Jiuding University.

There is a saying that the Buddha is sent to the west. Since a lot of land was given to Jiuding University to build a school before, it is no big deal to give it again now, and it cannot be used for commercial purposes anyway.

In the end, the Hong Kong government decided to grant another 80 hectares of land to Jiuding University. The location of the land is connected to Jiuding University. Xia Yu asked Wang Gengwu to connect with the Hong Kong government.

The reason for the extra 20 hectares is mainly because Wang Gengwu pointed out that there is a vast coastline on one side of the land, and the degree of development and utilization is not high, so it is strongly requested that all of them be drawn together, and also in order to open new projects related to the ocean and the environment in the future. Professionally, MacLehose finally agreed.

In addition to the original 60-hectare campus, Jiuding University will have a land area of ​​140 hectares, or 2,110 acres, which is barely comparable to the area of ​​the university he studied in his previous life.

However, this area has far exceeded Heung Kong University and the Chinese University of Heung Kong. In terms of Heung Kong, it is already very good. Xia Yu also heard from Wang Gengwu that he received the envy and jealousy of many high-level executives of Heung Kong University and the Chinese University of Hong Kong.

After the expansion of Jiuding University was decided, Wang Gengwu launched a publicity plan for more than six months.

The content of the plan is to continuously publicize Jiuding University through newspapers, magazines, TV stations and other media channels. All-round publicity is to first establish a good image in the minds of parents and students, and to pave the way for the later work of competing with Hong Kong University and the Chinese University of Hong Kong for high-quality students.

In addition to the expansion of Jiuding University, Xia Yu is more concerned about the development plan of Xiangjiang.

It's just that he is also mentally prepared. This kind of thing has far-reaching effects and involves the future of Hong Kong and the fate of millions of people. The Hong Kong government will not go through the motions like the expansion of Jiuding University.

As far as he knows, the Hong Kong government has held very intensive meetings recently, and the negotiations were once very intense.

After learning about the situation, Xia Yu did not remain indifferent, but immediately ordered his subordinates to collect the list and information of those who disagreed, and prepare to carry out public relations one by one.

He doesn't believe that everyone can stop the Jin Yuan offensive!

For the future of Hong Kong,

Also for the future of the Jiuding Consortium, his proposal must be passed at all costs!

After the Lantern Festival, on February 21, Xiafu.

"A Yu, are you coming back for dinner tonight?"

In front of the fitting mirror in the room on the second floor, Li Qian carefully arranged Xia Yu's clothes and asked softly.

Xia Yu said gently: "It depends on the situation. If I come back, I will call ahead. If I don't call, my parents don't have to prepare my meal."

Li Qian tapped her head lightly: "Yeah!"

"Okay, let's go down!"

After all, Xia Yu and Li Qian went down together and went out to the front of the house. At this time, three cars had been parked, the trunk of the car had been opened, and at a glance it could be seen that there were many gifts.

Before getting into the car, Xia Yu licked Li Qian's face, stroked her hair, and said softly, "Qian Qian, I'm leaving."

Li Qianlian's pretty face blushed, she tapped her head reluctantly, and warned, "Well, you must pay attention to safety."

"Don't worry, I will pay attention!"

"You go into the house!"

After speaking, Xia Yu got into the car and closed the door. The driver immediately started the engine. After Xia Yu signaled, the car drove outside.

Seeing the three cars go away one after another, Li Qian pursed her lips, feeling a little uncomfortable.

But after the experience of living in harmony with He Chaoqiong appeared in her mind, Li Qian comforted herself and remembered what happened last night. A blush quickly appeared on her fair and smooth pretty face, and the discomfort in her heart was also relieved.

"That's fine, someone can help me share the burden, otherwise..."

After thinking of this in her mind, Li Qian felt a little unwell, and her face became more and more hot. She hurriedly shook her head to stop thinking about it, and then turned around and went upstairs.

According to the daily study plan, she still has half an hour of yoga exercise, an hour of charity industry study, and an hour of management content study. Because of Xia Yu this morning, the plan is now disrupted. You have to hurry up and start your daily study plan to make yourself as good as possible.

...

Xia Yu's three vehicles drove all the way to the outlying islands, and then boarded a special freighter arranged by Jiuding Transportation Group that had been parked and waiting.

Thirty minutes later, the ship docked and the three cars disembarked one after another, and then drove straight to the home of the gambling king He Hongshen.

Originally, He Hongshen wanted to come to the wharf to meet Xia Yu, but Xia Yu refused in advance. He didn't value this superficial form, and he came here today with a different meaning. If He Hongshen came to the wharf to meet him, what would it be called!

It's just that although Xia Yu was not lined up at the pier to welcome Xia Yu, when Xia Yu and his party came to He's mansion on the hillside, they still saw He Hongshen and his son He Youguang waiting at the door. He hurriedly stopped the car and stepped up after getting out of the car. , walked towards the He family father and son with a smile on his face.

Just as Xia Yu and the He family and their father and son were chatting warmly at the gate, the He Mansion was on the second floor.

The second wife of the gambling king, Lan Qiongying, pushed open the door of her daughter's room, and what she saw was a very warmly decorated room.

The pink gauze bed was in the middle, and on the bed was a large white bear puppet with exquisite workmanship, which was given to He Chaoqiong by Xia Yu.

There are two exquisite crystal lamps at the head of the bed. The large milky white wardrobe stands on the left side of the bed. There is a pink desk on the right side and a pink dresser next to it. In order not to cause aesthetic fatigue, I put a few candy-colored ones. The chair, the whole room is very delicately arranged, the color matching is very natural, and it is full of girlish hearts.

At this moment, the graceful He Chaoqiong was sitting in front of the dressing table, dressed with joy, and she didn't even notice that her mother pushed the door in.

Lan Qiongying walked behind her daughter, looked at her daughter's expression in the mirror, and said with a chuckle, "Chao Qiong, you've been dressed all morning."

He Chaoqiong woke up suddenly, saw his mother in the mirror, turned his head quickly, and looked at the smile on his mother's face, He Chaoqiong's pretty face was instantly covered with red glow, and said incoherently: "Mummy, I don't have it, I just don't have it. Just sat down."

Lan Qiongying chuckled lightly, "Really?"

He Chaoqiong nodded like a chicken pecking at rice and said, "En! I just brushed my hair as soon as I sat down."

Lan Qiongying didn't tease her daughter anymore, but walked behind her, put her hands on her shoulders gently, and said softly, "My daughter is naturally beautiful, she is so beautiful without dressing up, she doesn't know if she will be fascinated when she walks outside. How many boys to pour."

"I don't want to be fascinated by others, just one."

He Chaoqiong muttered.

Thinking of Xia Yu, the smile on her face grew brighter.

Seeing her daughter revealing her true feelings, she was obviously trapped in a quagmire, exactly like when she was young, a flash of nostalgia flashed in Lan Qiongying's eyes, and then there was a feeling of grief.

She didn't want her daughter to be the same as herself. She didn't know how many times she had talked to her before, but now her daughter is still on the same path as herself. In the end, she chose to compromise. After all, He Hongshen is in charge of this family.

I can only hope that Xia Yu can treat He Chaoqiong well in the future and will not let He Chaoqiong be wronged...

"Mummy, what's wrong with you?"

Sensing that her mother's emotions were a bit wrong, He Chaoqiong asked with some doubts.

Lan Qiongying immediately showed a happy smile, caressed her daughter's jade hand and said, "It's nothing, I just remember when I was young, when I am old, I always like to miss the past."

He Chaoqiong hugged her mother lightly and said comfortingly, "Mummy is not old at all, and everyone thinks we are sisters when we walk on the road!"

Lan Qiongying was amused, and said with some anger, "Talking nonsense, Mommy's face has a lot of wrinkles."

"Why, in my daughter's mind, Mommy will always be the prettiest..."

"I think you ate honey today. Your mouth is too sweet."

"whee……"

The mother and daughter talked and laughed for a while.

Suddenly, Lan Qiongying heard the conversation below, and immediately said to He Chaoqiong: "Chaoqiong, it looks like a guest is here."

He Chaoqiong stood up in surprise and wanted to run down, but he stopped immediately, looked in the mirror carefully, and after making sure there was nothing wrong, took his mother's hand and said, "Mummy, let's hurry down."

Lan Qiongying said with a smile: "Slow down, remember the etiquette you learned in the previous etiquette class. Today is different from outside, and you have to take care of your father's face."

"Anlaan, I know!"

He Chaoqiong paid a little attention when she said so, but the joy and longing in her heart were about to overflow, so she went downstairs faster than usual.

Sure enough, as soon as she went downstairs, she saw the worried and handsome young man sitting on the sofa with his father, chatting and laughing. His father was introducing him to the members of the big family of the He family. She saw him with a smile on his face. to yourself.

He Chaoqiong, who had descended the stairs, ignored the presence of other aunts and sisters, held up her skirt and walked towards Xia Yu like a cheerful peacock, and said happily, "Xia Yu, you are here!"

If this wasn't home, and her father, mother, and other family members were there, she would have wanted to throw herself into Xia Yu's arms as usual.

It's just that the love in her eyes and the joy on her face can't be hidden at all.

After talking to Xia Yu, He Chaoqiong called He Hongshen "Dad", causing He Hongshen to shake his head with a wry smile.

"Um!"

"I am coming!"

Xia Yu smiled and nodded and replied, and then praised: "Chao Qiong, you are so beautiful today."

"Really?"

He Chaoqiong was overjoyed.

Seeing that there was no tea in front of Xia Yu, his brother He Youguang was making tea, and He Chaoqiong said immediately, "Dad, Xia Yu, I'll go and make tea for you."

After speaking, she immediately walked to her brother's side to help: "Brother, let me come."

After speaking, he picked up the cup involuntarily.

He Youguang was dumbfounded, glanced at his father, and after receiving his father's gesture, he could only helplessly put down the tea set, and his sister came to make it.

"Mr. Xia, I rarely drink Chaoqiong's tea at home. I can finally enjoy it again this time."

He Hongshen said to Xia Yu with a smile.

Xia Yu pretended not to hear the taste in He Hongshen's tone, and replied with a smile: "This time I have to experience Mr. He's blessing and taste Chaoqiong's tea art."

He Hongshen smiled, not intending to discuss this embarrassing topic in depth, and asked about Xia Yu's experience when he came.
