"I remember now, it seems that Tianbao Entertainment Company was the one that invested in this movie for Madman Mai!"
"So he's the boss of Tianbao Entertainment. It seems Tianbao Entertainment is quite powerful. The boss can casually do charity work and give away 100 million yuan. That's incredibly generous!"
As more and more people mentioned Tianbao Entertainment, the company became thoroughly famous in the Hong Kong entertainment industry.
Moreover, the wealthy businessmen and young masters present also kept the name of Tianbao Entertainment Company in mind.
Therefore, Liu Xiaobao's extravagant spending of hundreds of millions tonight has made him famous in both the Hong Kong entertainment and financial circles.
Fortunately, Xu Ke did not reveal the name "Bao Zong," otherwise someone might have associated it with that mysterious songwriter in the music industry.
This saved Liu Xiaobao some unnecessary trouble!
Although Liu Xiaobao had left the banquet hall, he had not left the Four Seasons Hotel. He was sitting in his car, waiting for Zhou Huimin at the hotel entrance!
Seeing that Zhou Huimin hadn't come down yet, Su Jie, who was acting as the driver, asked Liu Xiaobao with some confusion.
"Mr. Bao, I don't understand. It's just charity work, and you can just do it for show. Why do you have to spend so much money?"
Liu Xiaobao replied with a smile, stroking the guitar in his hand.
"You don't understand. There are so many celebrities and tycoons from Hong Kong here tonight. My hundred million won't have been wasted. It has both made Xiaomin proud and boosted the reputation of my entertainment company. It's killing two birds with one stone. Moreover, I have other intentions for doing this. You'll understand in a couple of days!"
Su Jie understood what was going on, but he still couldn't help feeling sorry for Liu Xiaobao.
That's a hundred million, not just a dollar or two!
However, Su Jie had previously run errands for Liu Xiaobao at the stock exchange, so he knew that Liu Xiaobao made money very quickly. Su Jie also knew about the 10 billion yuan investment that Liu Xiaobao had made in Pujiang Tianbao Group.
Therefore, although Su Jie felt sorry for Liu Xiaobao, he was not too worried about Liu Xiaobao.
At 6:30, a beautiful figure walked out of the Four Seasons Hotel; it was Zhou Huimin.
After seeing Liu Xiaobao leave, Zhou Huimin had no intention of lingering any longer.
Knowing that Liu Xiaobao would be waiting for her downstairs, Zhou Huimin greeted Zhang Guorong and a few other acquaintances before coming down.
Upon seeing Zhou Huimin come out, Liu Xiaobao got out of the car and waved to her.
"Xiaomin, over here!"
Zhou Huimin looked over at the sound, and upon seeing Liu Xiaobao, her pretty face immediately lit up. She then quickly walked towards Liu Xiaobao's car.
At this moment, Liu Xiaobao noticed that Ni Zhen had also followed Zhou Huimin downstairs.
Liu Xiaobao smiled smugly, ignored Ni Zhen, and gentlemanly let Zhou Huimin get into the car first, then he got into the car from the other side himself.
Su Jie then asked, "Boss Bao, where are we going?"
Liu Xiaobao turned to Zhou Huimin and asked, "Xiaomin, where can I find good coffee?"
Vivian Chow looked down at her evening gown and replied.
"Mr. Bao, dressed like this, I'm afraid it wouldn't be appropriate for us to go to any coffee shop! How about we just find somewhere to talk instead?"
Liu Xiaobao nodded: "That's fine then. Xiaomin, where do you want to go?"
"Let's go to the beach, Mr. Bao, I want to feel the breeze!"
"Okay, Su Jie, let's go to the beach!"
As Su Jie stepped on the gas, their car quickly disappeared from Ni Zhen's sight.

Hong Kong, Fisherman's Wharf.
Liu Xiaobao and Zhou Huimin stood side by side, facing the sea breeze, gazing at the night view of Victoria Harbour.
Su Jie sat on a stone pier thirty meters away.
Feeling the night breeze was a bit chilly, Liu Xiaobao took off his suit jacket and gently draped it over Zhou Huimin's shoulders.
"Thank you, Mr. Bao!"
Liu Xiaobao shook his head with a wry smile: "Xiaomin, could you please stop thanking me all the time? It's too formal, it makes me feel like we're complete strangers!"
Zhou Huimin turned her head to look at Liu Xiaobao: "But Mr. Bao, we still need to thank him!"
Liu Xiaobao shook his head helplessly again: "Then please don't call me Boss Bao anymore, okay? Just call me Xiaobao, the Xiaobao from Wei Xiaobao!"
"Wei Xiaobao? The male protagonist of The Deer and the Cauldron?" Zhou Huimin paused for a moment, then smiled: "It seems you really like Master Jin's works!"
"For us men, Mr. Jin Yong's martial arts novels are very appealing. I'd like to visit him sometime!"
Zhou Huimin said meaningfully, "But as far as I know, Wei Xiaobao in The Deer and the Cauldron is quite the womanizer; he married seven wives!"
Liu Xiaobao did not avoid the topic; he turned to look at the distant night sky.
"Xiaomin, you're wrong about that. In my opinion, although Wei Xiaobao is amorous, he is sincere to every wife. He is a very responsible man who lives a carefree life. At least he follows his heart and has never let down any woman who has feelings for him!"
Zhou Huimin was stunned and said, "It seems that you admire Wei Xiaobao a lot, Mr. Bao. You don't want to marry seven wives, do you?"
Upon hearing this, Liu Xiaobao turned around and looked directly at Zhou Huimin.
"I do admire Wei Xiaobao, and I've even thought about marrying seven wives like him. For men, it's better to openly marry several wives like the gambling king than to lie to their lovers and secretly keep mistresses outside. That way, there's no need for suspicion between each other, and we can live more easily and authentically!"
Upon hearing Liu Xiaobao's words, a hint of disappointment flashed in Zhou Huimin's eyes.
She gave an awkward laugh: "Why can't a man's love be devoted to one person?"
Liu Xiaobao didn't reply, but instead pulled Zhou Huimin around and left the dock.
"Baby... Little Baby, where are you taking me?"
Liu Xiaobao replied, "I'll take you to see the real world!"
Although Zhou Huimin had questions, she did not pursue them further and got into the car with Liu Xiaobao.
Liu Xiaobao instructed Su Jie, who had returned to the driver's seat, "Go buy some masks first, then go to the nearest hotel!"
Soon, Su Jie drove to a convenience store, bought a pack of face masks, and then drove to a hotel that wasn't very high-end.
Liu Xiaobao made Zhou Huimin put on a mask, and then he and Su Jie went first, with Zhou Huimin following behind them. The three of them walked up to the hotel room together.
Without specifically choosing a room, Liu Xiaobao simply knocked on a door of any of the guest rooms upstairs.
"Who is it?"
A man's voice came from inside the room. Liu Xiaobao casually replied, "Open the door, it's the police checking rooms!"
About a minute later, the door opened, and a man and a woman appeared in Liu Xiaobao's line of sight. Judging from their disheveled appearance, they had obviously been doing something indecent.
Liu Xiaobao didn't give the other person a chance to ask to see his identification. He spoke first, coldly questioning, "Are you husband and wife?"
The couple exchanged an awkward glance, then whispered, "No."
Liu Xiaobao then asked the man, "You must be around forty years old, are you married?"
The man glanced at the woman beside him before hesitantly replying to Liu Xiaobao, "I'm...I'm married! Officer, please, let me go this time, don't let my wife find out!"
Liu Xiaobao coldly demanded, "You're married, yet you're still cheating on your wife. How can you face her?"
The man pleaded with a pained expression, "What man doesn't love women? That's why I only dared to secretly look for them outside. I didn't dare let my wife at home know. Officer, I know I was wrong. I won't do it again next time. Please let us go this time!"
Liu Xiaobao smiled faintly: "Seeing that your attitude is not bad, and I'm in a good mood today, I'll let you off this time. Hurry up and go home to be with your wife!"
"Okay, okay, thank you officer, thank you officer, I'll go home now, I'll go home now!"
The man thanked Liu Xiaobao repeatedly before hurriedly leaving with the woman.
Next, Liu Xiaobao knocked on the doors of nine more rooms. Except for one room where two men were staying, the other eight rooms were in the same situation as the first room, with married men having affairs.
After checking ten rooms, Liu Xiaobao didn't knock on any more doors. Instead, he, Zhou Huimin, and Su Jie returned to the car.
Liu Xiaobao didn't say anything in the car until he and Zhou Huimin arrived at Fisherman's Wharf and were alone together. Only then did Liu Xiaobao speak to Zhou Huimin.
"Xiaomin, you understood what happened just now, right?"
Vivian Chow didn't respond, but her expression clearly showed that she understood.
Liu Xiaobao then asked, "Xiaomin, if it were you, would you want your future husband to be completely honest with you, or would you want him to cheat on you?"
At this moment, Zhou Huimin's worldview had been overturned by what she had just witnessed. In her previous belief, men and women who loved each other would be devoted to each other, just like her parents.
But what she had just witnessed at the hotel—that all those men were secretly having affairs behind their wives' backs—left Zhou Huimin at a loss for words.
However, Zhou Huimin knew very well that those people were not actors hired by Liu Xiaobao; they were all real people!
Hearing Liu Xiaobao ask her this, Zhou Huimin suddenly didn't know how to answer.
She simply shook her head blankly and answered truthfully, "I don't know how to choose! I don't dare to even think that such a thing could happen to me!"
Liu Xiaobao did not press Zhou Huimin further, but instead spoke slowly.
"Some things just won't happen if you don't dare to think about them. That's the reality of life. Rather than being heartbroken when the time comes, it's better to be mentally prepared in advance, so you don't don't know what to do when the time comes."
Vivian Chow didn't reply. She gazed at the night view of Victoria Harbour in the distance, lost in thought, seemingly pondering something.
Liu Xiaobao did not disturb her.
It wasn't until the night breeze grew cooler that Liu Xiaobao reminded Zhou Huimin that it was time to go home.
Zhou Huimin did not refuse, and Liu Xiaobao took her home.
Seeing Zhou Huimin enter the room, Liu Xiaobao murmured something.
