Entertainment: Since 1990

Chapter 127 It seems I should go out and hide for a few days.

"Snapped"

Inside the private room, a crisp sound stunned everyone.

But considering the identity of the assailant, most people dared not speak.

"Jian, are you alright?"

Only Mei Yanfang saw that the slap that was originally meant for her was blocked by Cao Jian, and she was completely moved.

"I am fine."

Although Cao Jian had been prepared, the other party's actions were too fast and too sudden, and he could only try his best to protect Mei Yanfang.

Fortunately, he instinctively dodged backward, and the man surnamed Huang's hand only touched Cao Jian with his fingertips.

Even just being brushed by a fingertip made Mui Yan-fang feel a little heartache.

In all my life, I've never had anyone slap me for my sake.

"Boy, mind your own business!"

In the eyes of the man surnamed Huang, although the young man in front of him was one of the Four Heavenly Kings, he was nothing but trash.

He dared to hit even Anita Mui, let alone Cao Jian.

"You, surnamed Huang, have gone too far!"

Mei Yanfang felt both sorry for Cao Jian and angry.

"I don't know what 'excessive' means. Asking you to sing is a favor. You have to sing this song today, or don't even think about leaving here!"

After saying that, Mr. Huang took out his mobile phone and made a call.

"You wait!"

Not to be outdone, Anita Mui also made a phone call.

Before long, hundreds of people had gathered outside the nightclub, and a conflict seemed imminent.

Just then, a luxury car stopped in front of the nightclub, and a woman who looked like a wealthy lady got out of the car.

Both sides knew each other; this person was Mrs. Heung, a prominent figure in Hong Kong.

The lady entered the private room, spoke with Mei Yanfang for a while, and after understanding the whole story, she glanced at Cao Jian and simply nodded slightly.

This was the first time Cao Jian had seen this woman, who had once criticized Stephen Chow on television and was a figure who could cause upheavals in both the Hong Kong entertainment industry and the triads.

However, he only glanced at it and did not go up to fawn over it.
After comforting Mei Yanfang for a while, Mrs. Xiang said, "Come back with me."

Although his tone was nonchalant, his presence was quite imposing.

Cao Jian knew this was something he could only envy, at least not now.

"Ah Jian, let's go."

Even with Mrs. Xiang by her side, Anita Mui still called out to Cao Jian before they left together.

As Cao Jian walked out of the nightclub, he was almost stunned by the scene before him.

Four or five hundred people, divided into two factions, armed with various weapons, were on the verge of battle.

Cao Jian had only seen such scenes in movies before, but when it actually happened in front of him, he realized how shocking it was.

This is what gang warfare in Hong Kong looks like.
As they passed between the two groups, before Xiang Tai got into his car, someone casually said, "Let's disperse for now."

After saying that, he left with Mei Yanfang.

From the moment this wealthy woman arrived until she left, she never spoke a single word to Cao Jian.

After all, in her eyes, although you took a slap for Anita Mui and are quite famous, you are not one of my people, so of course you don't deserve my attention.

“At this time, Hong Kong was a little better than in the 1970s and 80s, but it was still a bit chaotic.”

Sitting in the car, watching the gang members gradually disperse without a fight breaking out, Cao Jian shook his head.

However, they hadn't gone far when Mui Yan-fang called.

"Jian, I'm sorry you had to suffer tonight for my sake, but I'll definitely get my revenge for that slap, don't worry."

"Sister Mei, as long as you're alright, nothing else matters."

Cao Jian said he didn't care, but he actually cared a lot.

The more aggrieved you act now, the worse things will probably be for that guy surnamed Huang.

"Ah Jian, you don't need to worry about this. Just wait and watch the news."

Mei Yanfang had already guessed the reason for Ni Zhen's affair, and therefore feared that Cao Jian would act impulsively.

Ni Zhen is completely different from that Huang guy from before.

Although Mei Yanfang's voice was very kind, Cao Jian had already heard the death knell for that man surnamed Huang.

This incident occurred in a private nightclub, unknown to the media and many others. The next day, Cao Jian went about his usual routine: filming a music video for his album and then going to the film set to shoot a movie in the afternoon.

Recently, Chen Derong had nothing to do, so she was pulled aside to film a few scenes in the music video for "Lemon Tree". The main scene was the two of them having a pillow fight on the bed, which looked quite funny.

The music video for "MY LOVE" features Li Ming and Jin Chengwu providing backing vocals for Cao Jian, making for an impressive lineup.

That very evening, he saw on the news that the man who had been so arrogant and domineering the night before, and who had tried to slap Anita Mui, had been shot dead at close range in his car.

This news immediately caused a sensation throughout Hong Kong.

As for the reason, it is said to be due to gang warfare, which has left even the police clueless, and they are working hard to investigate.

"Holy crap, that's incredibly fast."

When Cao Jian saw this news, he was shocked and felt a chill run down his spine.

The power of Hong Kong's triads is indeed terrifying.

Anita Mui said she wanted to avenge herself, and she did so rather quickly.

"It seems I really need to go to Taiwan soon to avoid the limelight."

Although this matter had nothing to do with him, Cao Jian was actually a little scared after seeing the news.

Regardless, the person who hit me has a gang behind him and holds a high position. I'm just an artist. If these people take their anger out on me, it won't be fun.

Going there for a few months to relax and unwind would be a good idea.

He immediately called Mui Yan-fang: "Sister Mui, I saw the news, that person really died?"

Mei Yanfang's anger seemed to have not subsided: "He deserved it. He tried to hit me and even slapped you in the face. He was asking for death!"

"Sister Mei, I'd like to go to Taiwan in a couple of days."

"What? Are you scared? Don't worry, I'm here, everything will be alright."

"I believe Sister Mei. She's just been busy all first half of the year and wanted to get away for a while."

Cao Jian didn't want to admit he was scared, so he changed the subject and said, "Sister Mei, I've written a script. I'll show it to you tomorrow. If possible, we can start a film and television company and invest in this film together with Yong Sheng."

"Of course. If you want to start a film and television company, I can also invest some money in you. That way, it will be more secure."

"That's what I meant."

Upon hearing Mei Yanfang's words, Cao Jian laughed and said, "Sister Mei, you really understand me."

"You're my best friend. Besides, I can't let you get away with that slap for nothing."

In Mei Yanfang's mind, anyone who dares to touch Cao Jian is going against her, and that night she had already decided to support Cao Jian.

"I just reacted instinctively when I saw someone about to hit you."

"I know, and that's precisely why I want to repay you even more."

After Mei Yanfang finished speaking, she asked, "When are you going to Taiwan? Let me know before you leave."

"Filming for 'The Greed of Man' will wrap up in a few days, then I'll leave."

Having decided on his next schedule, Cao Jian eagerly awaited the completion of filming for "The Great Era" and had already asked PolyGram for leave.

Early that morning, as usual, he was heading to the company when he passed by a milk tea shop owned by his company and decided to buy an iced coffee.

According to the company's financial report, since the launch of iced coffee, sales have been excellent, and now more than 40 milk tea shops in Hong Kong are making more than two million in profit per month.

With Chen Derong endorsing milk tea, her pure and innocent appearance while holding a cup of milk tea has made it a favorite among many students and office workers.

He had just arrived at the milk tea shop and ordered a cappuccino without ice, then sat by the roadside reading a newspaper while he waited.

Two bodyguards were also smoking nearby, while observing the surrounding situation.

At that moment, a girl who looked like an elementary school student walked towards the milk tea shop with her schoolbag on her back.

If it were an adult, it would definitely alert the bodyguards, but since it was just a primary school student, and a girl at that, the bodyguards naturally wouldn't question it.

The girl ordered a lemon milk tea and was waiting when she suddenly saw Cao Jian wearing sunglasses.

This is my idol!

She immediately went over and patted Cao Jian on the back.

"Who?"

The news of the shooting death of a man surnamed Huang has inevitably caused Cao Jian considerable stress recently.

Suddenly being patted on the shoulder, he whirled around, his fist already out.

But in that instant when he turned around, he discovered that the person who took his picture was a girl with beautiful features and a lovely face.

Although the girl in front of him was still a primary school student, he could guarantee with absolute certainty that she would grow up to be an absolutely stunning beauty.

However, at this moment, the girl's big, watery eyes were filled with fear.
