Huayu 93, I'm the ceiling of combat power from the moment I appear.

Chapter 127 What Night Is Tonight? A New Year, A New Album

After its release, the box office performance of "God of Gamblers II: The Final Chapter" was not much better than that of the original timeline.

This movie is such a rip-off.

It's clearly a rip-off of "God of Gamblers," but the storyline and the actors' performances are several levels below.

The original film only grossed 1400 million yuan at the box office, ranking last among the major films released during the Spring Festival.

It didn't even reach half the box office of the fourth-ranked "King of Destruction" with 3690 million.

In this time and space, He Xi's newly emerging fame and popularity added some buzz to the film.

But he was just a supporting character with very little screen time, and he only shook dice, flipped playing cards, and played with birds to show off, without any action scenes.

To borrow a term from later times, it has a very low content of chlorine.

Many viewers even felt cheated when they left the movie theater.

"Xi Zai is just a supporting character, with less screen time and fewer action scenes than Wei Zi, yet he's standing next to the two main characters in the poster?"

"Even though Xi-zai is famous and popular now, what you're doing is a bit too much!"

"Exactly! I went to the cinema expecting to see Duozi's action scenes, and this is what you showed me?"

"Is it interesting to watch a short guy dressed as a woman, fighting with his short legs and making funny faces?"

Action movie fans, in particular, shouted the loudest.

They came to see the action scenes, to see the master of the Broken Water Flow technique, not to see a short guy clown around.

The producers of "God of Gamblers II: The Final Battle" did not expect that increasing the promotion of He Xi would have the opposite effect.

Even Wong Kar-wai, the owner of the production company, began to doubt whether casting He Xi in "Chungking Express" was the right choice.

But He Xi, at the center of the storm, paid no attention to any of this.

Wong Kar-wai asked him to continue acting in "Chungking Express," so he used "High Energy Time" to try and win him an award or something.

He doesn't feel regretful if he's not allowed to act.

Anyway, he was originally an action movie actor, so returning to action movies is not only his comfort zone, but also what fans are most looking forward to.

February 9th, Lunar New Year's Eve.

He Xi spent her first New Year in this time and space with Mr. and Mrs. He.

The Lunar New Year atmosphere on Hong Kong Island is very strong, with all sorts of folk activities, lion and dragon dances, fireworks displays, and so on, making it a very lively place.

He Xi, however, did not go out to join the fun. Instead, she stayed at home and watched the Spring Festival Gala on TV.

That's right, it's the CCTV Spring Festival Gala that even dogs won't watch 30 years from now.

In the original timeline, when he was a child, he would watch the Spring Festival Gala with his parents every Lunar New Year's Eve.

Watching those familiar people, programs, songs, and lines on TV.

He couldn't help but feel a pang of nostalgia and reflection.

It's amazing how young and energetic these people who will be old in the future are now.

I miss my home and family from the original timeline.

After midnight, the new year begins.

While asleep, He Xi discovered that she had returned to her original timeline, back to her parents' side, and back to her former workplace.

I've returned to my lazy life of slacking off at work, watching videos of pretty girls dancing, and saving a ton of workout videos but not being able to do anything.

That comfortable and peaceful feeling made him feel relaxed and happy.

But his happiness lasted only a few days before he discovered...

This kind of life is really meaningless.

Slacking off at work won't make you a billionaire.

There are many pretty girls in the videos, but you can't touch them or have sex with them.

Those fitness videos will only make your bookmarks cluttered and bloated, but they won't change your physique, not even a little bit!

Thinking about it carefully, there's really nothing good about coming back. It's still better to live a carefree and exciting life on Hong Kong Island in the 90s.

Just when he was filled with regret, sorrow, and pain, he was suddenly invited to the Spring Festival Gala in 26.

Watching Vivian Chow sing "Spring Begins" on stage, he found himself reminiscing about his life after time travel.

After Zhou Huimin finished singing, she sat down next to him, smiling as she turned her head.

"Happy Chinese New Year, Ah Xi!"

He Xi turned her head in surprise and saw Zhou Huimin's face, which was almost sixty years old and could no longer be kept youthful even with cosmetics and high technology, changing rapidly.

In an instant, I transformed back into my best self from my twenties.

"Vivian, you—"

He Xi was about to speak when her mouth was covered by the other person's lips.

He embraced the other person tightly, closed his eyes, and pulled hard—

Ouch, you're hurting me!

A moment later, Zhou Huimin's voice rang out again.

When He Xi opened her eyes, she found herself holding the other person, lying on the large bed in the apartment.

Outside the door, there came Old He's somewhat impatient knocking.

"Ah Xi, Vivian came to see you early this morning, so don't sleep anymore."

"Get up and eat quickly, we're going with Dad to wish the elders a Happy New Year!"

He Xi then realized that she had just been dreaming.

The woman in his arms is not the fading beauty, nearly sixty-year-old Vivian Chow.

Instead, it was Zhou Huimin in her early twenties, the best age and the best appearance.

"It's inconvenient for me to go out right now, so you'll have to go visit relatives by yourself!"

He Xi called out to the door, then immediately turned over and pinned Zhou Huimin down.

"Trying to ambush me while I'm asleep, huh? Just wait and see how I deal with you!"

Outside the door, Old He tried to knock again, but his mother grabbed him by the ear and took him away.

Inside the door, however, spring had already arrived—

In the afternoon, Zhou Huimin woke up slowly and turned to give He Xi a disdainful look.

"I haven't gone to visit any relatives for the New Year yet. It's all your fault for delaying my plans!"

He Xi smiled and pursed her lips.

"Even the Jade Maiden Sect Leader is going to offer New Year's greetings?"

Zhou Huimin pouted and snorted coldly.

"What's wrong with the Jade Girl Sect Leader? The Jade Girl Sect Leader is also a human being, with relatives and friends, and she also needs to eat and poop!"

He Xi couldn't help but purse her lips.

I thought to myself, "Luckily I'm not Li Ao. Otherwise, if you mentioned pooping in front of me and then made a constipated face, our marriage would be over!"

We welcome the God of Wealth on the fifth day of the first lunar month.

After spending the Lunar New Year holiday on Hong Kong Island, Mr. and Mrs. He set off to return to Taiwan Island.

As they left, the two looked reluctant to part.

They kept urging He Xi to get along well with Zhou Huimin, saying that the 7-year age difference was not a problem, and that they should get married when they were ready, and that they could help take care of the children if they had them soon.

He Xi smiled and nodded in agreement, but she had some reservations about Lao He's attitude, which seemed to be even more anxious than her own.

It's me who's in a relationship, not you, so why are you in such a hurry?

It's true what they say, the Emperor isn't worried, but the Emperor Emeritus is!

For Chinese people, New Year's Day is just an excuse to take a holiday; the Spring Festival is the real start of the new year.

After seeing the two off, He Xi's life in the new year began to get busy and hectic.

Vivian Chow's album has been recorded, and the album title is tentatively set as "Next Stop, Queen of Pop".

In addition to the original ten Cantonese songs, "See You Again" was also added.

The song was eventually made into a chorus, with Vivian Chow singing the verses, He Xi rapping, and the three members of Beyond providing harmonies.

This song will also appear in He Xi's first album, "What Night Is Tonight".

Looking at the lyrics and music of the ten songs He Xi presented, the three members of Beyond were shocked after only looking at three of them.
