Chapter 348: The Hope of Living
Compared with the hustle and bustle at night, the ten-mile ocean field during the day is much quieter. Even though there are many pedestrians who get up early to work on the streets, the restaurants and dance halls are still silent, and most of them are still asleep.
Unlike other guests, Hu Biao, who didn't rest for long last night, still let him go to bed early with his biological clock. Smelling the strange smell in the air of the room that had not completely dissipated, as well as the slightly messy room, Hu Biao could not help but show a wry smile.
Looking at the girl who was still resting on her arm, feeling the warm fragrance and warm jade breath in her arms, even Hu Biao, who had a lot of physical exertion last night, quickly felt that the fire was rising. But in the end, Hu Biao still stood up forcibly.
There are some things that if you indulge too much, you will lose more than you gain. Even though Hu Biao is very young now, his body is as strong as a calf. But Hu Biao still understands that color is the truth of scraping bones and steel knives, and some things must be stopped in moderation.
The most important thing is that he knows very well that the girl in his arms is only afraid of being seriously injured last night. Even if the foreign woman's recovery ability is good, but she was tossed by herself for one night, Hu Biao felt that she had to be given a certain amount of time to recover.
Anyway, the girl in his arms made him feel good. If the other party is willing, Hu Biao doesn't mind giving her a stable life. Spending some money to raise a girl in the concession, Hu Biao felt that he could still do it.
Picking up the clothes that were casually discarded on the carpet in the room, Hu Biao, who walked into the bathroom, quickly took a cold shower. When he came out, Hu Biao had already changed his clothes. Looking at the girl who was still asleep, Hu Biao dialed the phone at the front desk of the hotel.
Opened the curtains of the hotel, opened a window to breathe, and looked at the Huangpu River in front of the hotel, but Hu Biao was not in a good mood. The reason is that most of the ships sailing on the Huangpu River at this moment are flying foreign flags.
"Three years of the Army, ten years of the Air Force, and a hundred years of the Navy! It seems that it is necessary, for this something to be done in advance! ”
Thinking of the idea and layout of the future in the north earlier, looking back at Nina who was still asleep, Hu Biao, who was standing at the window, said with a calm expression: "I hope you won't let me down!" In a way, our fate is actually about the same! ”
For Nina, a Belarusian who fled to Shanghai, the chances of her future return to the Soviet Union were slim. But for these White Russians, once the concession was recovered, their fate would not be guaranteed.
If you are not of my race, your heart will be different, which is very clear to many Chinese. This also means that once the protection of the concession is lost, where will these Belarusians stranded in the concession go?
Similarly, for Hu Biao, who has traveled through this time, space and era, once the Anti-Japanese War is over, where will he go? Even if he can choose the winning side, can the winning side accept him sincerely?
Hu Biao also knew some of the things that happened after the founding of the People's Republic of China. As a person who joined later, who dares to guarantee that Hu Biao will survive those struggles? Thinking of these, Hu Biao felt that leaving after the end of the Anti-Japanese War might be the wisest choice.
Hearing a knock on the door, Hu Biao quickly came to the door and opened the door. Looking at the waiter standing at the door, Hu Biao also said politely: "Just give me the dining car and things, I'm sorry for you!" ”
"You're welcome, sir!"
took the dining cart pushed by the other party, and Hu Biao did not forget to give the other party a tip. I was also very happy to see the ocean handed by Hu Biao, and the waiter who was in charge of delivering food and things. There aren't many opportunities to tip at a restaurant.
"Thank you sir! If you need anything, please don't hesitate to ask! ”
"I'll call the front desk if needed!"
After closing the door again, thinking of Tian Tiezhu and the others who had arranged to spend the night in the hotel last night, Hu Biao used the hotel phone to wake them up one by one. After getting them up, he also told them to go to the restaurant of the hotel for breakfast first.
Tian Tiezhu and others, who also got up early, also spent a sleepless night last night. For these young men with strong blood, what they experienced last night also made them feel a journey of transformation from body and mind.
Now receiving a call from Hu Biao also made them understand that what they are enjoying at the moment comes from Hu Biao's reward. In the future, if they want to live like this every day, they are afraid that they will have to continue to work hard.
Hung up the phone, looking at the girl in the quilt next to her, her breath had obviously changed, Hu Biao also said calmly: "Nina, don't pretend to be asleep!" I know you had a hard time last night, so I ordered some breakfast and got up and washed up! ”
As Hu Biao called for himself to pretend to be asleep and hide in the quilt, Nina remembered the storm he experienced last night and a little stinging pain under his body, and whispered while complaining: "Can you give me the bath towel?" ”
Thinking of her physical state at the moment, Nina was still very shy. But to her surprise, Hu Biao, who was domineering last night, seemed a little pity at the moment, and threw the bath towel over without saying a word.
He took out two bags from the dining car and said, "This is the clothes I asked the waiter to buy for you, let's change them in the next one!" After eating, if you feel that you still want to rest, then you can continue to rest in the hotel, and I will give you another day's room payment! ”
Hearing this, Nina shook her head and said, "Thank you! I'm fine! ”
"Don't worry! Your service was good last night and I am very satisfied. If you can perform better, I may be able to give you more and better life. Actually, you should feel very honored, because you are also the first woman in my life, understand? ”
"Do you want to marry me?"
From Hu Biao's words, Nina felt a surprise despite feeling a little shy. Although Hu Biao is sometimes extremely domineering, Nina must admit that this domineering makes her addicted, and even longs for Hu Biao's protection in her heart.
Even if Nina thought about growing up, she would marry a young man of her own clan. But Nina knows better that there are few young White Russians living in the concession who are really capable. Marrying the other party, she may not have a chance to escape the cage of this concession.
On the contrary, it is this mysterious local youth who brings Nina a lot of curiosity. In addition, Nina is also a more conservative girl, she feels that her most precious thing has been dedicated to Hu Biao, and she hopes that Hu Biao can give her a home.
Facing Nina's somewhat longing eyes, Hu Biao shook his head and said, "Although I am not married yet, I still can't give you the guarantee of marriage." Besides, do you know who I really am? Let's take a shower first, then come over for dinner! ”
Although she felt a little lost, Nina still admitted that what Hu Biao said made sense. It is indeed a very ridiculous thing to give the happiness of a lifetime to a man who only spends one night. Thinking about this, Nina also felt blush.
Wrapping her seductive body in a bath towel and picking up the clothes that Hu Biao bought for herself, Nina was moved by the shyness unique to girls. Even though Nina is very smart, she is still an eighteen-year-old girl who has not experienced much.
Nina, who came to the bathroom again to untie the bath towel, looked at the traces left on her delicate body, and her mentality was completely different from morning and evening. For Nina, she has already begun to believe that meeting Hu Biao may really be her lucky day.
Wipe the body clean, even if the body still feels a little tired, but seeing the skirt in the bag, Nina is still a little surprised. As a girl, Nina knows very well that the price of this dress is not cheap.
Nina, who put the clothes she put in the bathroom last night and put them back in the bag and walked out of the bathroom, soon saw Hu Biao sitting on the sofa in the guest room for dinner. Smelling the tempting aroma of the steak on the plate, Nina also felt a little hungry.
Thinking about the current situation facing her family, Nina also lamented that she had not enjoyed steak for a long time. The increasingly bad family situation makes her usually only able to maintain simple food and clothing, and even the place where she lives is rented.
Even through service, she has earned a much-needed sum of money at the moment. When the money is spent, where will she go? The two closest relatives in the family who can't be given up to her, what will happen to her without her?
Just as Nina was pondering, Hu Biao said very directly: "The steak made in this restaurant is not bad, hurry up and try it!" Don't be in a daze, that will make you look silly, you know? ”
"Thank you!"
After sitting down, looking at the steak and red wine pushed in front of me, it is not suitable for Nina's usual eating habits. But Nina still knows that whether it is the steak on the plate or the red wine in the glass, it is a taste that she has forgotten for a long time.
While eating steak and drinking red wine, Nina also sighed in her heart: "It's really good to have a rich life!" ”
Taking advantage of the meal, Hu Biao also continued: "Although I know that my next words may affect your appetite. But I still want to say, can you tell me the story that happened to you now? ”
In the face of Hu Biao's questioning again, Nina, who had already contributed her body to Hu Biao, was no longer as vigilant and defensive as last night. After a night of transformation, Nina already knows that only by grasping the man in front of her can she get out of the sea of suffering.
If Hu Biao is unwilling to rescue her, then she may become a frequent guest of the hotel like those women last night, and become a 'delicacy' for guests to choose." This kind of taste, Nina really doesn't want to feel anymore!
Suppressing the sadness in her heart, Nina tells the story that happened to her. This story sounds a bit like a white swan transforming into an ugly duckling. But for Hu Biao, he has seen countless stories like this in his previous life.
After being silent for a while, Hu Biao also said calmly: "With the situation you are currently facing, let alone three hundred silver dollars, even if you are given three hundred dollars, how long can you last?" When the money is spent, how will you face the long life ahead? ”
"I don't know! But I know I can't give up on my father and brother! They are my last relatives in this world! I wouldn't be alive without them. Without them, I don't know what the future holds! ”
Looking at Nina, who was choking and crying, Hu Biao, who had already finished eating the steak, said very directly: "Eat first!" When I'm done eating, I'll accompany you home. If what you say is true, maybe I'll give you a hope to live! ”
As soon as these words came out, Nina was indeed a little dumbfounded. But what follows is a heartfelt touch. She knew that the heart of the man in front of her might not be as cold and domineering as he appeared on his face!
