A hundred flavors of life

Chapter 1323: Encounters for Each Character, Mission Accomplished! (Please Subscribe!)
Hua Shier didn't expect Akina to pull this trick on him, but he was still somewhat moved that this woman was willing to become a Hong Kong citizen, just for the sake of a title.

Looking at Akina's adorable yet expectant eyes, Hua Twelve pondered for a moment:
"Since you want to abandon darkness and embrace the light, that's not impossible. After all, I always try to learn from past mistakes and cure the disease to save the patient. It wouldn't be right not to give you a chance. But I need to test you. If you pass, I will register you with me on Hong Kong Island as Hua Twelve!"

Hua Shier reminded:

"My test questions might make you feel uncomfortable. You should think about it carefully. Actually, I think our current situation is very good. As long as you don't leave me, I won't leave you. Why pursue a title that has no practical use?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Akina firmly stated:
"No need to think about it. If you knew my past, you would know that I've always longed for a family of my own."

Hua Shier nodded: "Then I'll begin asking questions."

Next, Hua Shier asked Akina some questions about her stance, such as the ownership of a certain island and whether she had ever visited a ghost toilet. I won't go into details here because this chapter has been missing several times since it was uploaded. You can use your imagination.

Yes, you're right.

Akina gave very positive and satisfactory answers to these questions.

Hua Shier felt that Akina's words were particularly pleasant to hear, and the more they talked, the more she felt like one of their own.

He hesitated for a moment, then asked one last question: "Think carefully before you answer this last question, it's extremely important, and that is... Am I handsome?"

Akina realized something, her eyes crinkling into crescents: "So cool!"

Hua Shier then picked her up and said, "You passed the exam. You'll be certified and ready to start working next month!"

Amidst Akina's exclamation, Hua Shier rushed into the bathroom.

Hmm, I'll take a bath first, the kind with bubbles.
A month later, at the Hong Kong Island Marriage Registry, the names of Wah Twelve and Akina appeared on the notice of proposed marriage.

The incident quickly attracted media attention and was reported on.

It's worth noting that Akina was already quite famous in Hong Kong. When Tsui Hark was casting for "A Chinese Ghost Story," the Nie Xiaoqian he envisioned was based on Akina.

Unfortunately, Akina was affected by Kondo at the time and was depressed, so she refused the offer to star in the film, which led to the classic image of Nie Xiaoqian as Wang Meiren.

However, those familiar with Akina will notice after watching the movie "A Chinese Ghost Story" that the portrait of Nie Xiaoqian washing her hair in the movie was drawn based on Akina's image, taken from a photo of Akina with her hair turned to the side and her hair down, with every detail resembling her.

Besides the invitation from A Chinese Ghost Story, actors such as Leslie Cheung, Danny Chan, and Stephen Chow have all expressed their admiration for Akina, demonstrating her high level of fame in Hong Kong.

This was all without the involvement of Hua Twelve. Now, Akina has already opened up the European and American markets, is a Billboard Hot 100 singer, and there are even rumors that Akina is likely to win a Grammy Award next February.

Nowadays, when Asian entertainment media mention Akina, they refer to her as Asia's number one diva, which shows how famous she is.

When the media confirmed at the marriage registry that this Akina was indeed Akina, and reported on it, it quickly caused a sensation in Hong Kong.

Meanwhile, the message was transmitted to other regions via radio signals, and was reported by media outlets in Japan, South Korea, and even the West.

This incident caused a sensation in Japan, and the media quickly revealed that Hua Shier was the chairman of the Sanhe Group.

The news immediately sparked a wave of protests, with many Japanese protesting that their most beautiful singer was marrying a Chinese man.

Some radical male fans, when interviewed by reporters and facing the camera, even made threatening remarks such as they would jump off buildings if Akina got married.

While picking up Akina from get off work, Hua Shier gave an interview to reporters downstairs at the recording studio.

Japanese reporter: "Mr. Hua, some radical fans are saying that if Cai marries you, they will jump off a building. What do you think about this?"

Hua Shier's eyebrows danced with joy:
"It's a deal, double happiness is coming! We've said our piece, whoever doesn't jump is a coward!"

"Personally, I don't think jumping off a building is too reckless. Why not perform a seppuku instead? You could livestream the whole thing, which would be helpful for future generations who might encounter problems during a seppuku!"

The interview caused an uproar among the Japanese. Many people went to the Sanhe Group to protest with placards, some even sat on the ground saying they would go on a hunger strike, and some extremists even organized to storm the Sanhe Building.

Hua Shier looked disdainful and began equipping his underlings with weapons, giving each of them a compound bow.

His top legal advisor, Tsuchiya Tata, even gave his underlings a legal education session:

"Compound bows are sports equipment, absolutely legal. If anyone dares to rush in, feel free to shoot. You'll be doing this to protect company property, which is self-defense. I'll organize the company's legal team to represent you in court. Plus, you'll get a bonus if you hit the target!"

Hua Shier was very pleased. He was right to have such a keen eye. He had seen through the little fat man at a glance that he was a Japanese collaborator and rescued him from his cramped rented room. He was making the best use of him. Now he was coming in handy. Look how proactive he was.

The matter escalated, and in the end, Mingcai held a press conference through her company, saying that her love life had been bumpy, and she had finally found someone she could entrust her life to, hoping to receive blessings from her fans.

It's worth mentioning that the backdrop for the press conference was a gold screen. Akina sat in front of the gold screen once again. Unlike her previous pain and disappointment, she was radiant and smiling this time. She even looked several years younger than before, as if she had returned to the beautiful years of her teenage years.

Finally, Akina invited Hua Shier out to announce the marriage in public, and once again hoped to receive blessings from her fans.

Hua Shier smiled on the outside, but cursed inwardly. It wasn't directed at Akina, but he felt that it would be pointless for the matter to end there.

Having come this far, his marriage with Akina wouldn't feel complete or auspicious without a hundred or two Japanese soldiers jumping off buildings in a blood sacrifice. It wouldn't be a good start!
Sometimes, an idol's words are more effective than any other person's. When Akina's press conference was broadcast live to every corner of Japan, her fans were relieved because they could see genuine joy on her face. This showed that she was happy with Hua Shier, at least a million times better off than Kondo, that transvestite.

Akina's fan club sent a representative to issue a statement to appease other fans, gradually calming things down.

Just as the fans were calming down, Akina's family said in an interview that they did not agree to Akina marrying Hua Shier.

Akina's father said, "Akina should go back to Kondo. Kondo is the son-in-law I think is the best!"

The reporter told him, "Mr. Nakamori, don't you know that Kondo has already been cut off?"

"Tch?" Mr. Nakamori didn't quite understand.

The reporter looked down: "It's a cut in the physical sense!"

Nakamori gasped, "As expected of someone I had high hopes for. He's ruthless to himself; what can't he succeed at? Akina just didn't know how to judge people!"

"I will not agree to or bless her marriage with that Chinese boy. If she wants my, her brother's, her sister's, and her younger sister's approval, she'll have to give the family 100 million Japanese yen!"

Okay, Akina has an unhappy family. After she became famous, everyone in her family became bloodsuckers, relying on Akina to support them. When Kondo cheated on her, this Mr. Nakamori even said that Akina was being unreasonable and told her to apologize to Kondo, just because Akina's agency is Kondo's business.

Just as Hua Shier was considering whether to teach Nakamori a lesson he would never forget, Akina once again told the media:
"From now on, she will only live for herself and her lover. She has found her own happiness and does not need anyone else's blessing!"

When Akina's words were published, she was not criticized for being unfilial, because people already knew what kind of people the Nakamori family were.

Speaking of Kondo, I have to mention that his work has been published. Hua Shier had someone buy a copy to read with Akina, and... it was quite an eyesore.

Hua Shier was shocked. Was Kondo-sensei going to play this ruthlessly from the very beginning?

He called Taibo and found out that, like the Feng S store where Kondo worked, the company that filmed the educational film was also part of the Sanhe Group. He heard that the script for Kondo's first film was designed by that guy Lao Gui.

The next day when he arrived at the company, he saw his colleagues and pointed at Lao Gui with a look of disdain:

"I knew you were a sleazy kid a long time ago. Just look at that educational video you made, I don't even know how to describe it."

The others remained silent, while Old Ghost chuckled.

"Brother, I'm the most normal one. You can see it when the film comes out next week. The scripts they designed are absolutely mind-blowing. I could only cover my eyes and peek out through my fingers on set, afraid of going blind!"

Hua Shier became curious: "Tell me what kind of scripts you guys came up with?"

The group chuckled silently, their expressions revealing a knowing look that Hua Shier was left to guess. They were probably too embarrassed to speak up because the content was too explosive.

Hua Shier laughed and pointed at them: "Look at your sleazy appearance, I am ashamed to be associated with you!"

He finished speaking and turned to leave, but just before he reached the door, he suddenly stopped, turned back, and said:

"Oh right, send me a copy of the videotape when it comes out. Damn, it's pretty expensive to buy it myself!"

The brothers in the office chuckled, their smiles conveying a meaning that could only be understood, not explained.

After the statute of limitations for prosecution ended on Hong Kong Island, Hua Shier and Mingcai held a simple wedding on Hong Kong Island, inviting only a few close friends to attend.

At her wedding, Akina announced her retirement from the entertainment industry, her intention to settle in Hong Kong Island, and her commitment to being a wife and mother. She stated that the Grammy Awards after the New Year would be her last appearance at an entertainment event.

The news of Akina's retirement from the entertainment industry spread quickly. Many fans spoke out to persuade her to stay, while many others expressed their understanding, since there is a tradition in both Japan and Hong Kong that female stars retire after getting married.

Meanwhile, in Tie Tou's rural hometown, Xiu Xiu's situation has attracted the attention of the village. Because the rural areas here are relatively conservative, Xiu Xiu's illnesses are the first of their kind in the village at this time.

The village chief broadcast Xiuxiu's illness to the entire village through a loudspeaker and warned villagers to stay away from Xiuxiu's house because her illness was contagious.

Finally, the village chief said over the loudspeaker:

"You all need to educate your own kids properly, so they don't go astray and bring shame to the whole village. If word gets out that someone in our village has this disease, it'll be hard for all the young men to find wives and all the young women to find boyfriends. You all better be more careful!"

When Xiuxiu's father heard the loudspeaker, he was so angry that he vomited blood. After Xiuxiu finished her treatment and was discharged from the hospital, he kicked her out of the house and disowned her as his daughter.

Xiuxiu's mother felt sorry for her daughter and discussed with the village to buy Xiuxiu a small house at the west end of the village, so that her daughter and granddaughter could settle down and have a place to live that would shelter them from the wind and rain.

In February, Akina won a Grammy Award, thanked everyone, and then announced her retirement from the entertainment industry on the podium.

Time flies, and several years have passed in the blink of an eye.

Hua Shier, with his foresight, achieved great success in the Japanese business world. He then transitioned from business to government, becoming a very influential figure. From now on, any attempts to revise books or other documents here will absolutely not be approved by him.

Lili and Akina are both mothers. One lives in Hong Kong Island, and the other lives in the countryside in Tokyo. They travel back and forth between the two places and occasionally get together. They both feel very happy.

The old Zhao family house in the countryside was demolished and rebuilt long ago. Now it's a three-story villa with a swimming pool in the yard, which is the envy of everyone in the village, but no one is jealous.

Because Hua Shier had done a lot of good things for the village. He paid for the repair of all the roads in the village and bought large agricultural machinery for the villagers to use free of charge.

The villagers are not ungrateful people; they all speak highly of Hua Shier and bring gifts to pay their respects during the Lunar New Year.

But when it comes to Tie Tou's childhood sweetheart, Xiu Xiu, all the villagers say:
he, tui
He looked disgusted.

It was winter again. An uncle from the same village sat up from Xiuxiu's bed. After getting dressed, he took out a hundred yuan, thought for a moment, tore it in half, and threw one half to Xiuxiu.

"You can get fifty at the credit union. You've been sick, so that's all you're worth!"

Xiuxiu, whose figure had already changed and whose body was covered with red scars of various sizes, jumped out of bed and started cursing, "You big watermelon alpaca, you want to get away with this?"

The two started fighting over a disagreement, and the fight was so fierce that Xiuxiu's daughter cried loudly. The neighbors called the police, and both of them were taken to the station.

As the police car passed by the Zhao family villa, Hua Shier and Lili happened to be returning to the village for the New Year. As soon as they got out of the car, they saw Xiuxiu handcuffed inside. Their eyes met, and he turned away immediately. Even if they met, there was no need to reminisce; they should just be strangers.

At this moment, Xiuxiu was already in tears, while Hua Shier received a notification from the system that the task was completed. At this moment, Xiuxiu finally felt regret and regretted her actions!
