DO I actually need to transit?

I have the following plane tickets:
Hungary(EU) - Shanghai (arrival 21st Nov) - HongKong (arrival 23rd Nov)
Hongkong - Shnaghai (arrival 24th Nov) - Hungary (arrival 25th Nov)

I would leave for HongKong only for the eligibility of the 144 hour twov, but my main objective is to be back in Hungary. Am I eligible (and law - abiding) if I do not travel to HongKong but just catch my flight back to Hungary the next day? I have the plane ticket for transit, but I would not use it, just leave back to Hungary before the 144 twov expires.

Thank you!
