Wan Chai District, Hong Kong---

"Sing Tao Daily" General Office---

At this moment, in the office of the newspaper president, a man of twenty-four or twenty-five years old was wearing a golden vest, leaning lazily on the sofa, and gently swaying a delicate gilded folding fan in his hand.

Next to him was a young woman wearing a red cheongsam and slim posture, snuggling halfway into the man's arms and giggling: "Mr. Zhuang, how about the Nanyin I sing just now?"

The man smiled and lifted the young woman's chin with a folding fan, looked at the other person's eyes, and said, "Okay, you sang well, you sang well!"

"Since you sing well and sing well, should you get some reward?" The young woman said charmingly.

The vest man laughed: "I, Zhuang Wenjie, have always been rewarded and punished. Tell me, what do you want to buy this time? Is it clothes, bags, or jewelry?"

The young woman suddenly felt aggrieved, "Mr. Zhuang, you think of others too shallowly. Could it be that there are only those common things in my eyes?"

"Haha, I don't know whether you are vulgar or not. I only know that my rewards are time-limited--I only count three times. If you don't mention it, it will be gone!"

"Your Madam Zhuang is so bad, how can you do this?"

"I started counting, one, two..."

Before Zhuang Wenjie counted to three, the young woman, Honeysuckle, hurriedly said, "I want to make a movie!"

"Uh, making a movie? Your request is quite interesting!" Zhuang Wenjie slapped his palm with a folding fan, "Come on, tell me, why do you suddenly want to make a movie?"

"Although they are performing operas, it is becoming more and more difficult to perform operas now. Especially those who are talented and well-positioned like me have all gone to entertainment companies to make movies." Honeysuckle said.

"Nothing else, look at the actor Pink Juhua. She plays Dao Ma Dan. She has been rolling on the stage all her life. Now she is also filming. She is so old and still serves as the leading actor!"

"I'm still young and beautiful. If I go to make movies, I will definitely become famous. At that time, Mr. Zhuang will also have a gleam on your face... Maybe one day I will win the Southeast Asian Best Actress, and Mr. Zhuang will become a famous person--you will make me famous, right?!"

Zhuang Wenjie smiled but said nothing.

Seeing this, Honeysuckle became more courageous and continued to bewitch him: "Of course, Mr. Zhuang, you are already very famous now and don't care about that little bit of fame at all, but it will be of some help to your status as a dealer at that time--especially your dad, who will definitely look at you with admiration!"

Zhuang Wenjie smiled, stretched out his hand to stroke the honeysuckle's little hand and said, "Do you know why I fell in love with you and changed your stage name to 'honeysuckle'?"

Honeysuckle shook her head.

Zhuang Wenjie said: "That's because you are understanding and always enlighten me when I am most depressed and annoyed, making me happy---honeysuckle, it's a way to remove fire!"

Suddenly, Zhuang Wenjie's face changed, "But now I find that you are becoming less and less worthy of this name--I don't mind you being greedy for money, you don't mind buying this and that. Even if you want to buy a house, I will give it to you!"

"But now, you actually want to be the actress queen," Zhuang Wenjie held Honeysuckle's little hand and gently placed it on her cheek. "Don't you see if your face deserves to be the actress queen?"

honeysuckle:"……?!"

His face changed and he immediately smiled and said, "Mr. Zhuang, are you angry? I was just laughing at you, don't take it seriously! I know, I only know how to sing opera, I don't know anything. If you weren't for Mr. Zhuang, you would probably still be gnawing steamed buns in the opera troupe!"

Zhuang Wenjie also laughed, "I knew you were laughing, so I was laughing too--Don't daydream with the actress queen in the future. That's not something that ordinary people can do, unless you have the appearance of Xia Meng, the temperament of Ledi, and the luck of Lin Dai..."

Honeysuckle, awkward smile.

Zhuang Wenjie's mouth curled slightly, and his eyes showed a hint of coldness: "Also, the most important point--Don't mention my dad in front of me in the future, don't even mention a word of him!"

honeysuckle:"……?!"

After following Mr. Zhuang for so long, I saw Zhuang Wenjie showing such a cold and stern look for the first time.

...

I have heard of honeysuckle before that Zhuang Wenjie and his father Zhuang Shikai were in a bad way.

To be precise, Zhuang Wenjie's background is a bit "not clean."

Zhuang Wenjie's mother was originally a young actor on a Hong Kong flower boat in the 1940s, and she was good at singing southern music.

Once, Zhuang Shikai came to Hong Kong to discuss business, stayed overnight in Repulse Bay, drank on a flower boat, and had a night of love with the actor after getting drunk.

Originally, things like this were just scenes in the business world, but the actor was quite scheming. He not only took Zhuang Shikai's reward, but also concealed Zhuang Shikai's secret pregnancy. Then he used this matter to threaten Zhuang Shikai, and eventually blackmailed a large sum of money to go to the UK.

As for Zhuang Shikai, after paying a large sum of money, he received a baby in his infancy at the door, and this person was Zhuang Wenjie.

Zhuang Shikai originally had his original wife Shen Yuegui, and gave birth to a son and a daughter for him, namely the eldest young master Zhuang Wenxiong and the second young lady Zhuang Wenying.

Compared with these two noble young masters and second ladies of the dealer, Zhuang Wenjie, Zhuang San Shao is simply a "redundant" person in the dealer. He has not been taught by his biological mother since childhood, and he has always been taken care of by a maid, Sister Zhen.

When Zhuang Wenjie was young, he didn't know that "Sister Zhen" was his "grandmother", so he often made jokes at home.

Later, Zhuang Wenjie learned that "Sister Zhen" was just a "self-combing girl" who had a humble status by the banker. He often wore white clothes and black pants, with long braids on his head, and he would never get married for the rest of his life, so he took good care of him so that he could have some feelings.

But when Zhuang Wenjie realized that "Sister Zhen" was just a "maid" and not a "ma", those outside who didn't know much about the dealer began to treat him as the servant's son, rather than the dignified dealer's third young master.

The "shadow" in childhood life has caused Zhuang Wenjie's "unruly" now.

The third young master of the dignified banker lingers in the flowers all day long and does not do his job properly. Not only does he not care about the banker's various careers, but he is also fascinated by those Cantonese opera tunes - he spends money all day in the theater and spends a lot of money on those famous opera actors he likes.

Zhuang Shikai saw it in his eyes and was angry in his heart.

Sure enough, the actor's son is still an actor!

Although Zhuang Shikai was angry that he was not fighting, he was still thinking that he was his own boy. At least his blood was bleeding. Even if he could not be as smart and capable as his elder brother and second sister, he should not look like a waste.

So, after thinking about it, Zhuang Shikai handed over the part of the business of Hong Kong's Sing Tao Daily to Zhuang Wenjie.

Why did Zhuang Shikai do this?

On the surface, it seems that he wants to train his son, cheer up Zhuang Wenjie and become a useful person.
