Brilliant Years 1991

Chapter 106 Three-person World
When Zhou Aimin drove over, it was already past nine-thirty in the evening.

However, it must be said that although it was only 1992, the nightlife in Hongkong was indeed quite rich. Young people generally did not think that they should go to bed after o'clock in the evening like people in the mainland today.

The more developed the economy, the more normal it is to stay up late.

Cao Yukun personally ran downstairs to pick her up.

She drove a small car that looked like an MG brand, and it was obvious that she had dressed carefully before going out. She wore a very ladylike chiffon shirt with lace on the upper body, a beige short skirt on the lower body, and light pink lipstick.

After getting off the car, she quickly saw Cao Yukun, took off her sunglasses and waved, "Mr. Cao!"

Cao Yukun took two steps towards her, and made a slightly exaggerated gesture of leaning back and looking up at her, "Wow, you are so beautiful, I really want to recruit you to be my secretary!"

She smiled shyly, looking like a good girl who was not good at joking with others, "Mr. Cao...will this disturb you and your friends?"

"No! If he does, I'll chase him away!"

After he finished speaking, he took her hand and led her upstairs. "Put on your sunglasses. There are many perverts here. Don't let others see you like this."

She was slightly startled when Cao Yukun grabbed her hand, but she quickly recovered and obediently put on her sunglasses again. She was not afraid of being seen by a pervert, but was mainly afraid that there would be tabloid reporters here.

"Here, let me introduce you. This is my friend, Fang Zhihao, a lawyer. He may become the vice president of my company in the future! Ah Hao, you know Miss Zhou Aimin!"

Fang Zhihao had already stood up, and the two of them greeted each other briefly.

Zhou Aimin, who had thought she would face a large group of people on the way here, suddenly felt relieved when she saw that Cao Yukun only had one friend.

After ordering something new for her to eat, the conversation soon began between Cao Yukun and her.

It turns out that the drama she had just finished filming was called "Big Times"!
When she heard the name, and that the male lead was Zheng Qiuguan, the second male lead was Andy Lau, and that she played the second male lead's confidante, Cao Yukun immediately confirmed that it must be that drama!

He had watched that drama in his previous life!
Because there has always been a saying on the Internet that "The Greed of Man" is the Nanbowan of Hong Kong dramas for decades!
"Oh, a drama about stock speculation, it must be very popular! I've only been in Hongkong for a month, but from what I've seen, I think the people in Hongkong are most obsessed with two things: buying houses and buying stocks!"

"I hope so! They say it will be aired around October or November, and I hope it will be a hit! By the way, Mr. Cao, when will your commercial be aired? Have you started selling the drinks yet?"

"Just call me A-Kun or Yu-Kun! It will be on wireless TV on June 6! It just arrived today and will probably be all over the red sky tomorrow. Success or failure depends on this!"

"Akun...your drinks will definitely sell like hot cakes!"

"Haha, thank you! Do you want to have a toast?"

"..."

Fang Zhihao felt a bit uncomfortable. Apart from saying hello at the beginning, he just lowered his head afterwards. He was obviously full, but he still had to find something to eat and pretend to chew slowly. After sitting for more than ten minutes, he couldn't stand it anymore. He listened to their increasingly heated conversation with a depressed heart. He finally chose to stand up, "Boss, I suddenly remembered that I have something else to do..."

He went downstairs and walked all the way home. The more he thought about it, the more depressed he felt. When he got home, his parents and children were already asleep. He simply washed up and went to knock on his sister's door.

The door opened quickly, he went in, and closed the door.

The room was a bit small. Apart from a single bed and a narrow wardrobe, there was barely enough space for a small desk. She turned on the desk lamp and spread a book on the table. It seemed that she was reviewing her homework.

Ah Hao felt a little embarrassed, afraid that his sister would be sad, but he felt that he had to tell her, so he could only sigh and start telling his puzzled sister what he had just seen and heard.

Sure enough, her expression gradually changed.

Ah Hao said, "You know, he's pretty! I didn't tell you before, Cao Sheng's beverage filmed a commercial before, and invited Hua Zai to film with her. In fact, when filming the commercial, everyone saw that she kept peeking at Cao Sheng... It was obvious that she fell in love with him as soon as she saw him!"

"I don't know if Mr. Cao took the initiative to call her later, but I was right next to her tonight. We were eating and she called me. Mr. Cao casually asked her out. Wow, it was almost nine o'clock and she agreed right away. She came over in half an hour... She's so beautiful..."

"Of course I know you like Cao Sheng, and I think you're right to like him, but now you know that there must be a lot of people who like him! Even celebrities love him! It didn't take Cao Sheng to pursue her, she was clearly pursuing Cao Sheng! Please! Zhou Aimin took the initiative to pursue him, who can resist?"

"Anyway, think it through! Mr. Cao is definitely not just a pretty boy. He is indeed very capable. I plan to work with him in the future. He also promised me that when his company is officially established, he will let me go there to be his vice president. But if you like such an outstanding person, you will like someone else too!"

"If you want to continue to like him, you have to compare yourself with people like Zhou Aimin! In the future, there may be Li Jiamin, Guan Zhimin... Mr. Cao will definitely get rich! Wow, he is so good at doing business. I have followed him through many things from beginning to end, and I have seen it with my own eyes! As for female stars, which one doesn't like rich men? Look at how Liu Luanxiong looks like, doesn't he have Li Jiaxin on his left hand and Guan Zhilin on his right hand? Mr. Cao is so handsome and so good at doing business. He will definitely get rich in the future. After he gets rich, more female stars will like him..."

"I can't say whether he is a playboy or not, but rich people are definitely playboys. In fact, handsome guys are generally playboys too! If you want to continue pursuing him, you have to be careful that you might just be played by him! Now it is illegal for Hongkong to even have a concubine, so you won't even be able to be a concubine in the future! So you have to think it over carefully..."

…………

I chatted with Zhou Aimin until half past ten.

Everyone is so happy.

"No, I've only been here for over a month and haven't had time to buy anything. I don't have a car or a house, and now I've almost spent all my money. It all depends on whether the drink sells well after the ad is aired! If it sells well, I can buy a house and a car and become a wealthy man. If it doesn't sell well, I can go back to farming!"

"Not necessarily! I'm not a god. My drinks are definitely good, but whether they sell well or not is not up to me. It depends on whether everyone likes them! I might go bankrupt next month!"

"Wow, really? Well, it's a deal. If I go bankrupt, I'll go to you for dinner and stay at your house!"

It turns out that she was born in 1967, six years older than Cao Yukun. She started participating in singing competitions in 85, but it should be said that she made her debut in 86, because that year, she won the runner-up in an amateur singing competition.

In 88, she was nominated for the Best New Performer at the Academy Awards for her role in "Threesomes", which marked her emergence. That year, she began to release singles and EPs, which received gold record sales.

In Hongkong's entertainment circle, if you sing well, you will be invited to film a movie, and if you act well, you will be required to release a record. It is a thoroughly commercial operation, and you are good at all tracks, without much emphasis on specialization and in-depth cultivation.

She is a typical example of someone who can both sing and act, and most importantly, she is beautiful. Of course, although she was not a typical overnight sensation, she was gradually promoted.

The album "Vivian" in 90 achieved platinum sales, which made her completely famous. Moreover, it was under the name of "jade girl" that was hyped to the point that it almost resounded throughout the entertainment industry. She became famous and established her foothold with real business achievements and professional abilities. Vivian is her English name.

To be honest, there is still a certain degree of cultural and ideological gap between a mainlander and a Hongkonger. Even though Cao Yukun is a soul from thirty years later, in fact, the country at that time when he lived was almost completely commercialized and capitalized, which is quite similar to Hongkong at this moment. But when it comes to cultural concepts and personal cognition, there are indeed many differences.

But it doesn’t matter. When you are attracted by beauty, these are just small things.

What's more, she is obviously a good girl. From the perspective of family education and personal cognition, although she has obviously received an education that is unique to Hongkong in this era, which is a comprehensive integration of Chinese, Hong Kong, British and other cultures, she is a girl with traditional personality and morals.

So it’s hard not to speculate.

Seeing that it was already past half past ten, Cao Yukun stood up, paid the bill, and took her hand as they walked out of the food stall.

But when they went downstairs and could see her car, Cao Yukun stopped, took her hand, raised his other hand, and carefully touched her face, "Vivian, you are so beautiful!" She was a little shy, but still gave a positive response immediately, "No way, you are!"

So Cao Yukun leaned over and moved closer.

Immediately afterwards, his hands loosened and he held her in his arms.

She was a little nervous and uncomfortable at first, but that was probably because she didn't expect things to develop so quickly. After kissing for half a minute, she gradually became addicted to it. She raised her arms and hugged Cao Yukun's neck.

After rubbing their ears for more than ten minutes, Cao Yukun said, "The house I rent is nearby. Do you want to..."

Zhou Aimin was startled and quickly stepped back, blushing, "Too fast!"

"Of course I like it! As long as you love me and I love you, what's the big deal? Isn't it true that the faster, the happier?"

"But... isn't it too fast? You didn't even call me before, and you still want me to call you! When you answered the phone, I wondered if you had forgotten me!"

"My biggest problem is that I'm thin-skinned. When I called you, I thought you didn't like me, so of course I wouldn't harass you!"

"No, you don't know how much I was looking forward to you calling me next time! But you didn't call me for more than ten days, and I was busy with work. I didn't have time to invite you, but as soon as the filming was over, I didn't even wait for a day and called you right away!"

"Yes, yes, I know. So, you are actually in love with me, right?"

"Yes. Do you love me then?"

"I just said, I love you!"

…………

Confused and incomprehensible.

After leaving the car downstairs of the building where the food stall was located, Zhou Aimin was held by Cao Yukun's hand and went with him to the house he rented. Even when they reached the downstairs, she was still struggling and hesitant in her heart.

The main reason was that I was afraid that if I went home with her so easily, especially since this was only the second time they met, Kun would think I was some casual girl and look down on me.

But I don't know why, despite all the worries in my heart, he still pulled my hand, put his arm around my shoulders, and somehow led me downstairs.

I actually met his neighbor downstairs of his house.

Zhou Aimin was startled, and was glad that she had put on her sunglasses again when she came here just now - it was not because she was afraid that her relationship would be exposed, but mainly because the progress was too fast and she was still a little uncomfortable.

"You're back."

"Yeah! Ah Jing, why are you here?"

"It's okay. I wanted to talk to you about something. Let's do it another day!"

"Okay, come to my house some other day."

Listening to the conversation between the two people, Zhou Aimin felt that the girl's voice was quite nice and youthful. She couldn't help but turn her head to look over, but she saw almost nothing.

It was night time, and the place where the other person was standing was semi-bright and semi-dark, and what's more, he was wearing sunglasses.

So they passed each other.

But out of her girlish intuition, she still felt that something was wrong.

The problem was not with A Kun, but with the girl's voice. There was something obviously wrong - she seemed very disappointed and lost, but hesitant to speak.

So I couldn't help but ask: "Who is that girl?"

He answered casually, "A neighbor, the sister of Ah Hao who I had dinner with just now. Ah Hao worked for me, and I later rented a house here, so we got to know each other!"

Thinking about Ah Hao's appearance, Zhou Aimin immediately felt relieved.

This is quite normal - ever since she first saw this face, Zhou Aimin had no doubt that any girl would fall in love with him at first sight!

It's totally normal to have a girl's secret crush on you!

But when she really arrived at his house and entered the door, she was still shy, but he was so overbearing that he didn't allow her to say anything or dodge. He just hugged her in his arms, kissing and touching her.

Before she knew it, she had fallen into the sweetness of love again.

When she came to her senses again, she found that she had been stripped naked and he was lying on top of her, so she tried to delay and asked seriously, "A Kun, will you love me forever?"

I thought it was a normal question and answer session.

She just wanted to confirm it again.

I tried to regain some confidence that I was so easily taken home by a boy I had just met for the second time.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, he actually hesitated for a moment before answering, "I am sure that I love you now. Very much! But if you ask me whether I will love you forever, I can only answer you that I think it is very likely! So... do you need me to make up some nice words to deceive you?"

Zhou Aimin looked at him blankly.

It was the first time she met a boy who answered like this.

But I feel that he is so sincere that it makes me obsessed.

Yes, this should be the truth, right?
But at this moment, she was completely gazing up at his handsome and sincere face, and she was completely absorbed in it, without any scruples in her heart.

She couldn't help but say, "I really hope I can love you forever!"

His answer was: "Yes! I will work hard to make you love me forever!"
