Days in Hong Kong variety shows

"Go ahead and do it! If you pass the interview, the 36 weeks of training afterwards will be very tough. We'll see if you can handle it. Have some soup to soothe your throat first." Cao Tai said as he ladled out a bowl of the first dish of 'Lotus Seed, Lily Bulb, and Lean Pork Soup' for her.

The woman still has a slightly husky voice; she probably sang that song for too long this morning, and her throat is a little sore.

Seeing the look in Cao Tai's eyes, the woman couldn't help but punch him twice more before picking up the soup bowl with both hands and sipping the warm soup.

"Have some vegetables to fill your stomach." Cao Tai picked up a piece of "Garlic Emperor Vegetable" and put it into her other small bowl.

"By the way, what's your Chinese name? I heard your mother call it out on the phone before, but I only caught the sound." Cao Tai also picked up a piece of food and chewed it.

Chrysanthemum greens are a vegetable with a strong aroma; some people love them, while others hate them so much that they feel nauseous at the mere smell.

Fortunately, Mr. Cao quite liked this dish, and since Jessie ordered it herself, it was naturally one of her favorites.

"Ziwei, Liang Ziwei! But should I change my English name? I don't think it's being called that well." Jesse, no, Liang Ziwei, picked up a single piece of food and put it in her small mouth, chewing it slowly.

"Ziwei Star, what a grand name!" Mr. Cao stared in disbelief for a moment before moving his chin to continue chewing the vegetables in his mouth, gritting his teeth as if he wanted to grind them completely.

"The character '薇' has a grass flower radical added; it's not the '薇' in '紫微星' (Ziwei Star)," the pretty girl explained, picking up another piece of food and putting it in her mouth.

I know Leung Tsz-wai, of course. She was the head of the Public Relations Department and the Assistant Commissioner of Police in Cold War 1 (she was a Chief Superintendent for a long time before and after the handover, and was later promoted).

By the time of "Cold War 2," you've been promoted to Commissioner of Police and Senior Assistant Commissioner of Police.

Cao Tai was a little dumbfounded. It seemed that even without his interference, the "ex-boyfriend" who had gone through life and death with Jesse would eventually fall behind. Otherwise, there was no way to explain why Liang Ziwei was still single during the "Cold War" period.

"Hey, I have something to tell you!" the woman said, tilting her head slightly and speaking mysteriously.

"Okay, go ahead." Mr. Cao had already calmed down. After all, Liang Ziwei had already stepped into the Cao family. Even if she could become a senior assistant commissioner of police in the future, according to the local custom in Hong Kong, she would be privately called "Cao Liang Ziwei".

"When I was born, I was sickly and often fell ill. So my dad took me to a feng shui master to have my fortune told. The feng shui master said I had the Lian Zhen and Po Jun stars in my destiny chart, which meant I was clear about right and wrong and unafraid of difficulties. He said I would become an official, maybe even a military officer, and that I would have good luck in love and be able to build a career. Isn't that amazing? Am I having good luck in love now that I've met you?"

Liang Ziwei spoke softly about herself, perhaps wanting the man in front of her to know more about her.

"Damn, where did this feng shui master come from? How can he be so accurate?" Mr. Cao was a little surprised.

Police officers, those with guns, I'd say they fall into the military attaché category. As for romance, if she hadn't gotten involved, she would have had a romantic entanglement with Liu Jiehui later. In terms of career, being able to sit at the highest table in the police force, offer opinions, and influence police reform—that counts as a successful career, right?

Moreover, even in the most difficult times, he never gave up supporting Liu Jiehui and insisted on fighting against Niu Niu's forces to return to the police force and cause trouble. Doesn't that live up to the saying "clear about right and wrong, and not afraid of difficulties"?

"Are there really such skilled feng shui masters these days?" Cao Tai pondered to himself, muttering to himself unconsciously.

"It was some kind of Yi'an from a mountain pavilion... or something like An Yi Jushi, I heard it from my dad after I was old enough to understand, I can't quite remember. But after my dad took me to see this feng shui master, my health gradually improved, and I hardly ever got sick after that."

Seemingly hearing Mr. Cao ask which feng shui master it was, Miss Liang picked up a piece of the "Fengcheng Drunken Goose" that Mr. Cao had ordered. "Hmm, it tastes good," she said, picking up another piece.

"Yi'an Jushi was a lyricist, when did she switch to fortune telling!" Mr. Cao was somewhat speechless.

"Huh??" Ms. Liang's goose meat caught in her hand, her mouth slightly agape. "I didn't know! His feng shui shop seems to have been closed for over ten years. My dad wanted to take me there again, but we couldn't find it."

Because Ms. Liang's knee injury had not yet healed and Mr. Cao was afraid of causing further injury, he did not want her to carry a heavy load. After dinner, the two held hands and took a walk to digest their food before heading to Ms. Liang's home.

Ms. Le Huizhen didn't even have time to chat with Mr. Cao because she was busy reporting on the "Jun Du Robbery" these past few days.

Ms. Ruby had just spent the last two nights taking care of her, and today she also made plans to go shopping with her best friend, Achan.

Therefore, Mr. Cao decided to return to "Ai Du Building" and run two races by himself tonight. It seems that the competition will be even more intense than the horse race at Sha Tin Racecourse today.

......

Feng Yuxiu and Shen Xue finally arrived. Cao Tai took them and then called on Sang Bang, who was still wearing a plastic mask to fix his nose bridge, to Kwun Tong.

There was a large warehouse that Da Sha had simply cleaned up and then furnished with some training equipment.

Because Mr. Cao hasn't had time to look at the gyms that the business research company recommended for acquisition, he can't provide training facilities to Feng Yuxiu and Sangbang for the time being.

So for now, we can only temporarily send them to Kwun Tong's Big Fool's territory to help train the Sai Kung spirit lads.

After introducing the three to Da Sha, he thought that Shen Xue might have a tumor now, so he decided to help Feng Yuxiu, this future general.

So they took the three of them to the hospital for a thorough full-body checkup, ostensibly a "pre-employment physical examination," to ensure that the employees were in good health to perform the tasks assigned by the company.

After all, Sang Bang looked like a wounded soldier, even though he insisted that he was incredibly strong and could kill a bull. But under Cao Tai's instigation, he ended up getting brutally beaten by a short, lame man.

They then explained how they got there and how they returned the same way. Finally, Mr. Cao drove the three of them to "Elizabeth Hospital".

In a capitalist society, the power of money allowed these individuals to witness the hospital's efficiency.

Three inspection reports came out quickly.

Feng Yuxiu was born with a limp. Even after the leg was broken, set, and healed, it would appear that his leg was the same length, but it would greatly affect his ability to exert force. Although the doctor strongly advised him to have surgery, Master Feng was unmoved.

Sangbang's nasal bone wasn't dislocated; he just needed to rest. The new bruises and contusions on his body were minor injuries and superficial wounds that would heal in a week. Instead, his robust physique attracted the doctors' attention, who wanted him to stay at the hospital for live human studies.

The person who made this suggestion almost had their glasses smashed by him.

Regarding Shen Xue's report, the doctor told Ms. Shen with slight hesitation that her imaging results showed a small shadow on her liver, which was initially suspected to be a tumor. Because blood had already been drawn, she needed to wait for the results of the blood tumor marker test.

Further pathological biopsy may be needed to confirm whether it is benign.

This means that Ms. Shen should be hospitalized now, and regardless of whether the result is benign or not, she may have to undergo surgery because the shadow is already compressing the portal vein, one of the main blood supply channels to the liver.

Shen Xue also checked herself and realized that she had indeed been feeling unwell recently. Even the usually cool and aloof Feng Yuxiu changed his expression.

Regarding costs, as a private hospital, Elizabeth Hospital charges HKD 3-5 for tumor resection surgery in the hepatobiliary surgery department, depending on the reputation of the surgeon.

If you want to hire a renowned hepatobiliary surgeon from A-mei's clinic to perform the surgery, the cost will skyrocket to 7-10 US dollars.

The cost wasn't a problem for Mr. Cao, since he already had some initial capital, but the hospital couldn't give a good answer regarding the success rate.
