Good question
I know the answer is no, you still continue to do 14 days' quarantine because Cap 599E still applies.

But why not waive Cap 599E if test negative? This one I'm not sure.

Then and only then you would do whatever you planned to do in HK? So book your hotel AFTER you get out of quarantine?
Book your quarantine hotel before arrival.

Once released you can go do what you originally planned.
