Reborn in 1970, I thrived in Hong Kong.
Chapter 29 Deng's Mother's Little Thoughts
Upon hearing this, Li Huai-ren immediately looked at Teresa Teng with concern. He knew very well that Teresa Teng had asthma in her previous life, and it was said that her death in Thailand was related to asthma.
Teresa Teng was naturally aware of asthma, and upon hearing Dr. Chen's words, she immediately turned pale!
Seeing the two looking at him with concern, Dr. Chen waved his hand and said:
"You two don't need to worry too much. Fortunately, it was discovered early, and now she only has symptoms of asthma."
"Let me prescribe a medicine to help her recover. I'll also teach her a set of Chen-style Tai Chi for health and wellness. Just try to avoid catching a cold and overworking herself; she should be fine."
On May 20, 1970, Phoenix Daily published a major news story: Teresa Teng, who was extremely popular in Taiwan, had expired her contract with her original record company and switched to Hong Kong's Phoenix Records.
Soon, the inside story of Phoenix Records was thoroughly exposed by newspapers of all sizes in Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan, and Southeast Asia. Phoenix Records was one of the businesses under Li Huai-ren, who is the now-famous writer "Lord Da Ming" in Hong Kong, and also the lyricist and composer of more than half of the songs on Teresa Teng's best-selling albums.
The news caused an uproar in Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan, and Southeast Asia. In Taiwan, in particular, multiple versions of the story of the talented man and beautiful woman eloping circulated, becoming increasingly bizarre and outrageous. There were even rumors that Teresa Teng was pregnant with the child of Li Huai-ren, a marquis of the Ming Dynasty.
The money-making machine that the whole family depends on for survival suddenly ran off to Hong Kong without a word, and switched to Phoenix Records without even discussing it with the family. This is unacceptable! How are we going to manage to keep the money this money-making machine earning in the future?
In a fit of anger, Deng's mother immediately set off for Hong Kong.
At this time, rumors were circulating throughout Taiwan that Teresa Teng had eloped with "Lord Li Huai-ren of the Ming Dynasty," and that Teresa Teng was already pregnant and would have a baby with Li Huai-ren.
When the news reached Deng's mother, she almost fainted. If her family's money-making machine and cash cow got married now, what would happen to the whole Deng family? Who would earn money to support them?
She immediately packed her bags, ready to storm Hong Kong and snatch back the cash cow that was about to slip out of her control.
Just as she was about to book a flight to Hong Kong, the Hong Kong Phoenix Daily and Ming Pao suddenly broke a major news story that same day:
Phoenix TV is scheduled to officially launch on June 1st at 6:00 PM. After the news program at 6:00 PM, two episodes of the opening drama, "The Legendary Twins," will be broadcast consecutively, followed by the variety show "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire!"
And the owner of Phoenix TV is none other than the Marquis of the Ming Dynasty—Li Huai Ren!
Of course, although Phoenix Daily did not report it, Ming Pao still exposed Li Huai-ren's shady operation of bypassing the Hong Kong Telecommunications Department and other relevant departments to register Phoenix TV in Macau, omitting Mr. He, and completely dissecting it.
It is said that on that day, the Hong Kong British government and the Portuguese and Macao governments urgently communicated and consulted, and finally reached an agreement that Phoenix TV would be an exception, and the Portuguese and Macao governments would no longer approve any application for a TV station license that could cover Hong Kong!
The news quickly reached Taiwan, and when Deng's mother learned that Li Huai-ren had acquired another television station, her mind immediately began to stir:
"This Li Huai-ren not only owns Phoenix Daily and Phoenix Records, but also founded a television station. So, he must be quite wealthy."
If Ah Jun marries him and gives birth to his son, wouldn't all these properties belong to my grandson?
So, as his grandson, shouldn't I be filial to my grandmother and his uncles?
Hehe, isn't my grandson's the same as mine, the Deng family's?
Why would I even bother going to Hong Kong? Anyway, all the profits from Ah-Jun's best-selling records will go into my bank account.
"Ah Jun, that money-loser, is in Hong Kong. Does Li Huai-ren really think he'd let her go hungry, deny her food, clothes, shelter, or even a little pocket money?"
The more she thought about it, the happier she became, as if all of Li Huai-ren's assets were already in her and the Deng family's pockets, so she gave up the idea of going to Hong Kong.
Anyway, my daughter's album sold very well. Just from the record sales revenue, my family and I can live comfortably for three to five years without any problem!
Rumors of a romantic relationship between Teresa Teng and a Ming Dynasty nobleman were rampant in Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan, and Southeast Asia. Naturally, the female students of Jinling Girls' High School in Sanchong City, Taipei County, Taiwan, would not miss this huge piece of gossip, especially since the female protagonist of the rumor was their senior, Teresa Teng.
As a result, the female students of Jinling Girls' High School immediately became excited and enthusiastically discussed the fairytale-like love story of their senior, Teresa Teng, who traveled thousands of miles to find her lover.
Amidst the whispers, no one noticed that Lin Qingxia's expression was growing increasingly grim, and that she was muttering to herself:
"Is Teresa Teng pregnant? Is that true or false? How old is that Marquis of the Ming Dynasty? Isn't he still in high school in Hong Kong?"
You scoundrel, you wicked scoundrel, you bad guy, you wicked guy, you're with senior Teresa Teng and you're about to have a baby, so why did you hug me that day?
Li Huai-ren? You wicked Li, you deadbeat, I hate you to death! Humph!
Meanwhile, Li Huai-ren was unaware that he had already incurred the wrath of Brigitte Lin, but he was caught off guard when Teresa Teng suddenly arrived in Hong Kong without warning.
Seeing that Teresa Teng's throat was so sore that she could not speak, and that she looked so haggard that she could fall asleep standing up, Li Huai-ren felt heartbroken.
He knew very well that after Teresa Teng decided not to renew her contract, the record company must have treated her like a money-making machine and a cash cow, exploiting her to the fullest extent to extract all her value.
Moreover, perhaps the culprit was her money-grubbing, insatiable mother.
Li Huai-ren shook his head inwardly:
"I'm so angry! There's only one nail, but a whole bunch of hammers. Every single one of them wants to smash this nail, and they're all vying to smash it. No wonder it's going to break!"
Damn it!
Sigh, well, she'll be my woman sooner or later. I should cherish my own woman. I need to get her illness treated first, and then let her rest properly before we talk about anything else..."
Therefore, Dr. Chen took Teresa Teng's pulse and discovered that she was showing signs of developing asthma.
That day, Teresa Teng, who had come to Hong Kong alone without any luggage, felt embarrassed to stay directly in Li Huai-ren's villa and instead stayed at Chen's Chinese Medicine Clinic, temporarily sharing a room with Chen Yu-lian.
Just then, a small villa next to Guan Jiahui's house was put up for sale. The owner was immigrating to Australia, so Li Huai-ren quickly bought it, had it cleaned and furnished with brand new household items, and had Deng Lijun move in.
However, Teresa Teng wasn't very good at cooking or managing the villa, so these tasks naturally fell to Ye San Niang. Teresa Teng had all her meals at Li Huai Ren's place.
