Entertainment: Since 1990

Chapter 79 You Can’t Sing
If you count his cameo in the movie "Twin Dragons", "The Banquet" is actually the second movie Cao Jian shot.

After a busy day of filming, Cao Jian went to say goodbye to Mei Yanfang and planned to go back early to accompany Wang Fei.

Wang Fei will be flying to the United States tomorrow morning, so we need to spend some time together tonight.

"Sister Mei, thank you for today. I'll go back first."

"Ajian, why are you going home so early? Do you want to have dinner together tonight?"

"I'll treat Sister Mei another day and thank you very much. I was a little nervous about filming today and I'm a little tired."

"Ok."

Mei Yanfang could also understand that as a newcomer, it was inevitable to be nervous when playing an important role for the first time.

Since you don’t want to eat, she smiled and said, “Then I’ll take you home.”

"Then I'll trouble you, Sister Mei."

This time Cao Jian did not refuse.

In the car, Mei Yanfang asked, "Have you got your Hong Kong driver's license?"

"Just got it, and I'm thinking about what car to buy."

Cao Jian was already a good driver. He just needed to familiarize himself with Hong Kong's traffic regulations and get used to driving on the left. He got his driver's license in just over a month.

"Then what car do you like?"

“I like dirt bikes.”

"I thought you'd like sports cars. SUVs aren't popular in Hong Kong, and they're not comfortable to sit in."

The two were discussing cars when Cao Jian's phone suddenly rang.

He took it out and saw that it was his agent Ke Zhihui calling.

"Hey, Brother Hui, what's wrong?"

"Cao Jian, this is Zhou Huimin. I lost my phone number, so I borrowed Brother Hui's to send this to you. Where are you?"

"I just finished filming, and Sister Mei is taking me back to where I live. Is there anything wrong?"

Cao Jian was a little curious. Why did Zhou Huimin suddenly call him? Was she just trying to inform him that she had lost her phone?

Or are you apologizing to me because of the news in the newspaper?
"Are you with Sister Mei?"

Zhou Huimin felt a little relieved when she heard that Cao Jian and Mei Yanfang were together.

Anita Mui is the big sister of the Hong Kong entertainment industry and her influence is much greater than that of Ni Zhen. Since she is with him, nothing should happen.

But, someone like Sister Mei actually drove Cao Jian?
Is he going to be a gigolo?

No wonder they can afford such an expensive house.
Thinking of Cao Jian being a gigolo, she felt a little annoyed.

He wants to seduce me and be a gigolo. What kind of person is he?

Although she thought so, she still reminded him: "Then you should go back early and be careful on the road."

"Got it, thank you."

Cao Jian didn't think much about it, thinking that the woman called him because she was embarrassed about what happened in the newspaper.

After the two of them finished talking and hung up the phone, Mei Yanfang asked, "Who is it?"

"Zhou Huimin, asking me where I am, that's weird."

"It's her, is everything okay?"

When Mei Yanfang heard that Cao Jian had not hidden anything and had mentioned her during the phone call just now, she felt that this little man was very frank and would not lie, and she was quite happy.

"fine."

As he spoke, the car had already stopped at the entrance of the alley where Cao Jian lived.

"Thank you, Sister Mei. Will you still go to the crew tomorrow?"

"I've finished filming my scenes today, and tomorrow I'm going to film 'The Return of the Condor Heroes 1991'."

"Don't work too hard, make sure you get some rest."

Cao Jian showed some concern for the elder sister who had always taken care of him. After getting off the car, he waved and walked briskly towards his residence.

Mei Yanfang watched Cao Jian leave and breathed a sigh of relief.

She had a very good impression of Cao Jian, especially during the charity performance when this little man held her hand, and she felt a feeling she hadn't had in a long time.

But, he is really a little young.
Just as I was about to drive away, I suddenly remembered Zhou Huimin’s previous phone call and felt something was wrong.

After hesitating for a moment, she took out a cigarette, lit it slowly, took a puff, and planned to finish her cigarette before leaving.
Cao Jian's apartment was only a hundred meters from the main road, not too far. However, the alley was dimly lit and not crowded at night, making it seem rather quiet.

On the way, Cao Jian saw a can and kicked it out of childishness.

The sound of "ding-ding-dang-dang" could be heard from far away in the quiet alley.

Cao Jian walked more than fifty meters and looked back to see the white sports car still parked on the side of the road. He sighed and said, "Sister Mei, do you really have feelings for me?"

He has no psychological burden in being a jerk to others.

But he is still very conflicted about this daughter from Hong Kong.

Just as I was about to reach the downstairs of my residence, suddenly, three figures appeared in the darkness, holding baseball bats in their hands, and walked towards me.

"Looking for me?"

Cao Jian reacted very quickly and turned around to run, but when he turned around, he found that there were three people holding special sticks in the same place where he came in.

"Oh shit!"

Cao Jian cursed and stopped.

He wanted to shout, but he was worried that Mei Yanfang might be in danger.

He looked at the people who were getting closer and closer and asked, "Who are you?"

"I heard you can sing? We are here today to make sure you can't sing in the future."

One of the young men, with tattoos on his arms and dyed yellow hair, pulled out a glass bottle from his pocket and shouted, "Hold him down and pour this stuff in him!"

When Cao Jian saw the glass bottle, his mind started working rapidly.

He hasn't offended anyone since coming to Hong Kong. Could it be that someone is jealous?

But I have Mei Yanfang protecting me, who would dare to be jealous of me?

Suddenly, he remembered Zhou Huimin's previous call and asked tentatively, "Are you Ni Zhen's people?"

Hearing this, Cao Jian noticed that the person opposite him was obviously stunned.

But the man immediately denied it, saying, "We don't know any Ni Zhen, we just don't like you."

"You're uneducated, so scary. I've seen a lot of people like you before."

Before his rebirth, Cao Jian was a teacher. He could basically tell whether a student was lying or not at a glance, not to mention that these people were lying with their eyes open.

Although he was complaining in his heart, seeing these people getting closer with weapons, he suddenly had an idea. He took out his mobile phone from his pocket and threw it directly at the bottle in the leader's hand.

"boom!"

The two were not far apart, and Cao Jian's throw was extremely accurate, breaking the bottle directly, and the liquid inside flowed out.

"what!"

The man yelled and threw the bottle away in a hurry.

The others didn't expect such a sudden change to happen and were all stunned.

Taking advantage of this split second, Cao Jian rushed towards the three people blocking the entrance of the alley.

"Stop him quickly!"

When the leader saw that the target was about to run away, he endured the burning sensation on his hands and shouted.

By the time others reacted, Cao Jian had already run more than ten meters.

Several people chased Cao Jian, but the young Cao Jian was very fast and ran to the entrance of the alley in a blink of an eye.

Mei Yanfang was still on the street when she heard shouting from the alley, thinking that something had happened to Cao Jian.

Just as I was about to get out of the car to see what was happening, I saw Cao Jian running towards me.

"Drive quickly!"

Cao Jian shouted to Mei Yanfang, then jumped up and stepped into the sports car handsomely.

"So handsome!"

Mei Yanfang couldn't help but praise this action and then stepped on the accelerator.

"boom!"

The exhaust pipe of the Ferrari sports car roared, and it sped away, leaving behind the few thugs who had just chased it.
