Hong Kong movies: Do you love your sister-in-law or gold?

Chapter 1: Traveling through time and space with Liu Jianming, do I have a choice?

Clang…clang…

In July 1991, the sound of bronze chimes echoed throughout the Ten Thousand Buddhas Monastery in Sha Tin District, Hong Kong Island.

Inside the main hall of the temple, a short and fat man in a white shirt handed the host a portion of incense money and turned to face the seven young men behind him.

"Five years ago, the parking stall outside the Royal Palace Restaurant in Tai Hing Village, Tuen Mun, opened with great success!"

"My brothers Chengban and I had great ambitions, but within two weeks of opening, our business was raided 13 times a day. Within a year, six of our brothers died!"

This short and fat man doesn't look impressive, even a little wretched, but when he talks about his past when he was young, he unconsciously reveals a bit of viciousness.

"The fortune teller said that my success was the result of countless sacrifices," the short and fat man shook his finger. "But I disagree. We are out here, and we should be able to decide whether to live or die!"

The seven young men in front of him all looked like they were listening intently, but if someone looked closely, they would find that the most handsome young man among them, who had three parts of evil charm and seven parts of arrogance, was reciting silently.

The young man then silently chanted, "You have been with me the shortest, and your background is the cleanest. You can choose the path you want to take!"

The short and fat man with an arrogant aura was like a puppet at this moment, following his silent recitation and pointing his hands at the seven young men and speaking these words.

As the monk handed the tea tray to the seven people, the most handsome young man also picked up the teacup like the others.

The young man sighed in his heart: It’s all because my parents were too broad-minded in my previous life, so I have no choice but to embark on a path of no return after traveling through time.

This young man is Liu Jianming, who just awakened to the mystery in his womb a few days ago. The short and fat man in front of him with a sinister smile on his face is Han Chen, one of the five generals of the Ni family, the strongest family society in Tsim Sha Tsui, Hong Kong Island.

According to Liu Jianming's awakened memories of his previous life, his parents were honest people. With the idea of ​​"building a better tomorrow", they named their son Liu Jianming.

Liu Jianming graduated from university as his parents expected, but found that tomorrow was not bright.

After working 996 for the company for many years and still being forced to work harder, he became a UP host in the film and television section at home.

Finally, when I was making a collection of classic Hong Kong films, I fainted.

By the time Liu Jianming awakened to the mystery in his womb, he had already lived in this Hong Kong variety show world for twenty years.

In this world, Liu Jianming's parents have already immigrated.

He is an excellent student and good in both character and study, but because he falls in love with Sister Mary at first sight, he joins the club and stays by Sister Mary's side.

Sister Mary’s husband is Han Chen, one of the five generals of the Ni family.

Han Chen said there was a good opportunity for a young man with a clean family background, so Sister Mary recommended Liu Jianming to come over today.

Han Chen gathered seven young brothers together today to arrange for them to attend police academy and become his undercover agents infiltrating the police force.

Han Chen smiled and raised his teacup, "I wish you all the best in your future career in the police department!"

Liu Jianming and several others drank it with their heads tilted back and smashed the teacups to show their loyalty.

Han Chen waved to the other six people and said, "Jianming, stay here. You all go back and prepare. I'll register you for the next session of the police academy. Classes will start in a week."

Han Chen raised his hand and patted Liu Jianming on the shoulder and said, "I arranged for you to be a police officer without telling Mary. Do you have any other ideas?"

Liu Jianming continued his previous tone, "From the first day I met Sister Mary, I knew that my boss was Brother Chen. I had to do everything according to Brother Chen's instructions."

Looking at Liu Jianming's handsome face, even the seasoned Han Chen couldn't help but feel jealous. However, this frivolous boy, speaking honestly, sounded much more pleasing than those silly guys.

"When I first saw you at Mary's, I knew you were a smart guy. But after not seeing you for a few months, you've grown a lot taller than I thought!"

Liu Jianming's heart tightened, thinking that his greatest support after traveling through time had been exposed.

When Liu Jianming awakened his past life memories three days ago, a [selection system] appeared in his mind.

In order to help Liu Jianming become familiar with the operation and to verify the power of the [Selection System], the system gave him a novice gift package.

"Newbie Gift Pack: Body Transformation. Option A: Increase height by 5cm; Option B: Increase appearance by 5%. Please choose within 1 minute."

Liu Jianming thought about Teacher Chen’s looks that had charmed millions of girls, and that he would be more handsome than King Liu in the future, so his looks were still very good.

However, in terms of height, Mr. Chen and King Liu are not quite up to par, so I decisively chose "Option A".

Then, Liu Jianming saw himself in the mirror. His height had grown from 178cm to 183cm. His figure was still well-proportioned, and his muscles seemed to be even stronger.

Because Liu Jianming will only be 20 years old next month and is still growing, Sister Mary has no doubts except that she feels that the little wolf next to her has become a little wilder.

Han Chen had only met Liu Jianming a few times in the past, so of course he wouldn't delve into his sudden height increase. Instead, he changed the subject and said,

"When you're a police officer, charging into battle and risking your life are secondary. Being eye-catching and tall and handsome are the main things. Although the police force isn't a beauty pageant, you're definitely the fastest promoted among the seven!"

"The study at Wong Chuk Hang Police Academy lasts 27 weeks, and the elimination rate in the past few sessions has been around one-third, so you have to persevere."

"As long as you become a regular police officer, I will continue to provide you with information and help you get promoted!"

Liu Jianming showed a look of deep gratitude on his face, but he had already stabbed Han Chen ten times in his heart.

He understood that Han Chen said he would help him get promoted, but in fact he wanted to train a high-level undercover agent in the police force.

Only at this moment did Liu Jianming understand how helpless and extravagant the original owner Liu Jianming's words on the rooftop were: "It turns out I have no choice, but I want to be a good person in the future."

Because he has the foundation of following Han Chen and Mary, even if he works as hard as Chan Ka Kui to solve cases in the police force in the future, as long as Han Chen is exposed, half of his life's hard work will be wasted.

As for "choosing another path", refusing to go undercover in the police at this time and just hanging out as a gangster in the underworld?
Not to mention that he would be targeted in the future for disobeying Han Chen, even if he really made it from 97 to red stick, or even the leader, his fate after would not be very good.

However, although it was a devastating start with "no choice", relying on the [Selection System], Liu Jianming really wanted to fight against the fate of "falling into hell forever".

After leaving Ten Thousand Buddhas Monastery, Liu Jianming did not go home, but went to Sister Mary's large flat in Tsim Sha Tsui.

As soon as he entered the room, Liu Jianming saw Sister Mary who had just taken a shower and was wearing silk pajamas.

The belt was casually put on a loop without even a knot, and the bust was so prominent that the white cleavage was bottomless.

Seeing that it was Liu Jianming who came into the room, Sister Mary, who was originally about to put on her coat, picked up a record and put it on the somewhat antique gramophone.

Sister Mary always felt that her younger brother Liu Jianming was different from others and she felt particularly close to him, so she didn't think there was anything wrong with meeting him dressed like that.

"Who is knocking on my window? Who is plucking the strings of the piano..."

Tsai Chin's magnetic and unique voice, accompanied by the classic melody of "Forgotten Time", made the atmosphere in the room unconsciously ambiguous and restless...
