Chapter 546 3-Star Secret Marriage
"Don't worry, young lady. Doctors are compassionate; we will do our utmost to help your boss recover!"
I imitated Fatty Lin in expressing my loyalty.
None of the Lu family's branches are simple.
When Lu Jingqiong said that we should take care of Lui, I understood what she really meant. She was simply telling us that she was aware of Fourth Wife's actions and that we knew all the inside information.
She didn't point it out, expose it, or interfere; she just hinted at it to us.
From an investment perspective, the eldest son's family is in the angel round, the second son's family is in the Series A round, and the third and fourth sons' families don't participate in any rounds; they are essentially high-level employees.
Now that the first wife's angel round has been sacrificed by Gambling King Lui, the second wife's Series A round has the largest stake and is even too big to be controlled, showing signs of turning the tables.
That's why Stanley Ho supported his fourth wife to deal with his second wife.
When Stanley Ho got into trouble, his second wife deliberately delayed sending him to the hospital, indicating her intention to seize power.
As for Lui's revenge, the second wife is not afraid at all.
From the perspective of the second wife, even at the worst, it would only be a return to the state before Lui's fall. After all, the second wife is a Series A investor and holds shares in her own hands, unlike the fourth wife, who relies entirely on Lui.
To put it bluntly, Fourth Wife's current status is similar to that of the eunuchs who served the emperor during the Ming and Qing dynasties; she is the emperor's household slave.
As long as the emperor is safe, she can use his power to be arrogant and domineering. But once the emperor is in trouble, she will be like a fallen phoenix.
"I'm relieved to hear that!"
Upon hearing our answers, Lü Jingqiong relaxed her brows slightly, revealing a smile, her attitude very gentle.
My brother and I smiled and didn't say anything more.
Soon, we arrived at the hospital.
Before getting out of the car, Lü Jingqiong said, "Thirteen, Xiaolin, Nier, Daddy doesn't know when he'll recover. Hong Kong Island has been quite chaotic lately. If you encounter any difficulties in the future, or need connections or resources, feel free to contact me anytime. I can't guarantee anything else, but in Hong Kong Island, I can still manage to pull some strings!"
"Alright, let's go!"
After saying that, she got off the bus before we could answer.
The three of us exchanged glances, said nothing, and got off the bus.
We didn't talk on the way to the ward.
When we arrived at the ward, Fourth Aunt was a little surprised to see that we had come together, but she didn't say anything.
Ten minutes later, Lü Jingqiong left, and Fatty Lin took the initiative to tell the story.
After saying that, Fatty Lin laughed and said, "Sister Ling, Miss's move was amazing!"
"Our young lady is quite cunning!" Fourth Madam scoffed, then said, "Don't worry, she can't sow discord between us!"
An hour later, we also left.
Leaving the hospital, I shook my head and said, "Miss, that was a brilliant move!"
"Excellent!"
Fatty Lin nodded.
Lu Jingqiong's actions served three purposes: first, to tell us that she knew everything; second, to curry favor with us by telling us that the second wife's door would always be open for us; and third, to plant a seed of discord between us and the fourth wife.
That was a brilliant move, mainly because she didn't contribute anything; she just gave us a ride for a while.
"Damn it, once you're in the game, you're not always in control of your own destiny!"
After the analysis, Fatty Lin was somewhat moved.
After that, Lü Jingqiong stopped contacting us and entered a strange period of calm, during which everyone was waiting.
The fourth wife is waiting for the progress of Shi Shi's pregnancy and for the fetus to take shape.
Wang Sanmu comes to the hospital every two days, also waiting.
The remaining two branches of the Lü family also remained silent, with no one trying to stir things up or test the waters; they were simply waiting.
There are still three months until the Seven Stars Life-Extending Sacrifice Ceremony scheduled by the Fourth Wife.
During the waiting period, Hong Kong Island was not very peaceful either.
Starting in August, a series of major revelations have been made.
In the middle of the month, Taiwan was ravaged by floods. The entire Hong Kong entertainment industry mobilized, with more than 300 Hong Kong stars gathering at AsiaWorld-Expo to hold a large-scale charity gala for the 8.8 flood relief efforts. Artists from all over the city ran around raising funds and performing to raise money.
After a long period of silence, Teacher Liu Mingxi wants to take advantage of the nationwide disaster relief campaign to make a grand comeback, clear his name, and return to the entertainment industry.
However, he was abruptly removed from the competition by the organizers just before his turn to play.
Liu Mingxi offended too many people during that previous incident, so even if someone wanted to push him, they couldn't.
Before the disaster relief controversy had subsided, another bombshell dropped.
When superstar Chen Daozai's father-in-law passed away, he quietly went to Southeast Asia to attend the funeral, exposing his 20-year-old secret relationship.
This sparked a massive public outcry, and Chen Daozai eventually succumbed to the pressure, issuing an apology that effectively acknowledged the relationship.
This sparked a nationwide discussion about the superstar's secret marriage, shattering the filter of Chen Daozai's long-standing single image, and causing a media storm that swept through the entire Hong Kong entertainment industry.
This "entire population" does not refer to Hong Kong Island, Macau, and Taiwan; the mainland is also in an uproar.
That wasn't the end of it. By the end of August, Hong Kong media launched a series of bombshell revelations, igniting a media storm that shocked the entire city of Hong Kong over Samsung's alleged secret marriage.
Besides Chen Daozai, another superstar, Li Jun, and Yang Chunjiao have also been exposed to have secretly married.
Li Jun's overseas marriage certificate was publicly exposed, and Yang Chunjiao's secret marriage registration in Las Vegas was also revealed.
The Hong Kong media referred to the incident involving these three individuals as the Samsung secret marriage scandal.
"Fatty, these media outlets in Hong Kong are really something!"
Looking at the report, I felt a mix of emotions, yet something also seemed amiss.
"I don't think things are that simple!" Fatty Lin said.
"I know!"
I nodded. "What a coincidence, their affairs being exposed one after another!"
"really!"
Fatty Lin pondered for a moment and said, "Let's leave Yang Chunjiao aside for now. The other two are top celebrities not only in Hong Kong but also in mainland China. The extent of their influence is self-evident!"
"That's exactly what I suspect!"
I glanced at the newspaper in my hand and said, "Capital is profit-driven. With their combined power, there are some things they wouldn't normally report. Now, not only have they reported them, but they've reported three of them at once. I don't believe there's nothing going on here!"
"You madman, you mean to start from the feng shui aspect?" Fatty Lin realized.
"Um!"
I nodded and said, "You've seen what's happened in the past month or so, without me having to tell you!"
"The gambling king Lu's affair was already making headlines, and then these three people's affairs were exposed one after another. It seems like entertainment gossip, but I feel like something's off!" I said.
The entertainment industry is a place rife with gossip, hypocrisy, and the pursuit of fame and fortune.
These top celebrities have been hiding their private relationships for years and maintaining a single persona. No one knows how much negative karma they have accumulated from these lies.
The concentrated exposure of their affair has led to discussions throughout Hong Kong Island, and such gossip is most likely to cause restlessness.
The atmosphere in Hong Kong Island has been chaotic and disorderly lately, and their affair has only made things worse, which makes me think about the Five Fiends causing chaos in Hong Kong.
