Chapter 191 The Ruthless Huang Dacheng
Chapter 191 The Ruthless Huang Dacheng
In Hong Kong, entertainers are considered the lowest of the low. Women are somewhat better off, with a chance to marry into a wealthy family, but men shouldn't even dream about it.
When the White Dragon King mentioned that Liu Mingxi, a notorious actor, was with Huang Sheng's niece, I was very curious about how he managed it, so I asked, "Liu Mingxi became Huang Sheng's niece's husband? How did he do that?"
"Liu Mingxi's family is quite wealthy, isn't his father a businessman?" Fatty Lin said.
"The Liu Mingxi family's wealth is simply insignificant!"
The White Dragon King said.
"So how did he get the recognition?" Fatty Lin's curiosity was piqued.
"First, Huang Sheng's niece recognized him; second, he agreed to marry into the family. You should know that Huang Sheng's second brother has no sons, only a daughter!" the White Dragon King said.
"I see!"
I understood a bit, and said, "So what if we're getting together? What happened?"
"My daughter is making a huge fuss about marrying Liu Mingxi. Although I, as her father, am unwilling, Liu Mingxi agreed to let her marry into the family. My second brother, Huang Sheng, reluctantly accepted it, but just because he accepted it doesn't mean Huang Sheng accepted it!" said the White Dragon King.
"If the father acknowledges it, why doesn't Huang Sheng?" I asked.
"Why won't you admit it?"
The White Dragon King chuckled and said, "Second Brother Huang only has one daughter. If she marries someone of equal social standing, the man will not marry into the family. In other words, Second Brother Huang's wealth and connections will not be left to his son-in-law; most of it will flow into the Huang family!"
"Uncle Nan, do you mean Huang Sheng is eyeing his younger brother's property?" Fatty Lin asked, frowning.
"yes!"
The White Dragon King replied with a single word.
"Huang Sheng is trying to eat his own brother's childless offspring!" I muttered.
"Uncle Nan, what does Huang Sheng plan to do?" Fatty Lin asked.
"Huang Sheng has been investigating Liu Mingxi all this time, trying to find something to use against him. He found something a few days ago, and he wants to release it to ruin Liu Mingxi's reputation and prevent him from entering the Huang family!" said the White Dragon King.
"Let him do what he wants, why ask him anything?" I said.
Liu Mingxi is just an actor, small and thin. If Huang Sheng wants to mess with him, he can't escape it.
"This is a serious matter that could implicate many people. Huang Sheng isn't sure how far this will go in the end, so he asked me!" said the White Dragon King.
"What leverage?" I asked curiously.
"Huang Sheng has obtained video footage of Liu Mingxi with some female celebrities!" said the White Dragon King.
"Uncle Nan, which actresses are they?" Fatty Lin asked gossipingly.
"I don't know either!" said the White Dragon King.
"In that case, I will cast a divination before the patriarch later!"
"I think for a moment and then I say," said Fatty Lin.
"Alright, I'll wait for news!" said the White Dragon King.
After hanging up the phone, Fatty Lin was curious about the photos, but he didn't take it too seriously. He immediately returned to his room, took out a small memorial tablet, set up the incense burner, and prepared to cast a divination.
"Fatty, you're so 'filial'!"
Looking at the one-inch black and white portrait pasted on the memorial tablet, my lips twitched. This guy brought his grandfather's memorial tablet with him.
"Don't pick up your bowl to eat the meat, then put down your chopsticks and curse!"
Fatty Lin rolled his eyes and said, "We're in Hong Kong, a place we don't know well. What if we run into danger? I brought my grandpa here for our own good!"
As Fatty Lin spoke, he cast a divination stick to ask about the matter.
The first hexagram reads "Sacred Yang," and Fatty Lin muttered, "A waning moon signifies reunion, a withered tree regrows, proceed slowly and cautiously, nothing will be accomplished!"
"This is bad, this plan is doomed!"
After muttering to himself, Fatty Lin started dice again. After three attempts, he said, "Yin Yin Yin. If a person is kind and does no evil, though there may be doubts, a benefactor will come. This means no wealth, no marriage, and a girl will be born. It's still not going to work out!"
After interpreting the divination, he cast the hexagram again.
After casting the toss, he said, "Yin Yang Yin, the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl will have a hard time meeting, good things are rare, we cannot move forward, it will not work!"
"Isn't that going to work?" I asked.
Although the three hexagrams were different, the results were largely the same.
"No way!"
Fatty Lin shook his head and said, "Let me talk to Uncle Nan about it!"
After saying that, he took out his phone and called back.
"Uncle Nan, the result isn't good!"
After the call connected, Fatty Lin explained the three divination results in turn.
"I understand, I'll tell Huang Sheng right away!" said the White Dragon King.
My brother and I didn't think much of it; we just considered it a small favor and didn't insist on seeing Liu Mingxi's photo.
There are so many unscrupulous tabloids on Hong Kong Island, with all sorts of celebrity gossip and photos every day. We've seen so much of that we don't take Liu Mingxi's case seriously anymore.
Two days later, the White Dragon King left the port and returned to Siam.
We went to the airport to see him off, and the White Dragon King didn't say anything during the farewell.
That evening, the White Dragon King called.
There were two main points: first, to express gratitude; and second, to tell us that after returning to the temple, we suddenly foresaw a major upheaval in Hong Kong Island a couple of days later, which was related to Liu Mingxi.
"Uncle Nan, does President Huang still want to proceed?"
Upon hearing this, Fatty Lin knew that Boss Huang hadn't listened to advice.
"I told him that his scheme would fail and that he would not be able to get his second brother's property. He only asked me one question: would Liu Mingxi and his niece separate? I said yes. Although he didn't say anything, based on my understanding of him, he would still do it!" said the White Dragon King.
"It means it doesn't matter whether he gets his second brother's property or not, as long as Liu Mingxi definitely can't get it, right?" I said.
"That's what I mean!" said the White Dragon King.
"Alright, Uncle Nan, we understand!"
"That's what Fatty Lin replied."
After hanging up the phone, we looked at each other. Doing this was in line with Huang Dacheng's personality.
Two days later, a set of photos was released, and Zhong Tianzhen became a trending topic.
"That's how we played that day too. Zhong Tianzhen only has 'innocence' in her name!"
Looking at Zhong Tianzhen's photo, Fatty Lin curled his lip, looking like he'd seen it all before.
"That's ruthless, starting with their own artists!"
I felt a bit emotional.
Zhong Tianzhen is currently Huang Dacheng's most popular artist, but this incident has dimmed her career, and she can forget about making a comeback anytime soon.
At this point, we could only sigh, and two days later, new photos were released.
When we saw the latest photos, Fatty Lin couldn't help but curse, "Holy crap, he's really ruthless! He even released photos of his own niece!"
After this, how will my niece ever face anyone again?
"Huang Dacheng is ruthless; he only cares about profit and has no regard for family ties!"
I said.
"More than that!"
Fatty Lin scoffed, pointed to the dozen or so newspapers he had bought, and said, "Look at this, it's all about Liu Mingxi and General Manager Huang's niece!"
"The photos of Xie Xiaohu's wife, Zhang Piaopiao, are clearly more sensational, but look, the main page is full of discussions about Liu Mingxi and General Manager Huang's niece. This is obviously someone stirring things up behind the scenes!"
"Mr. Huang is really ruthless!"
Fatty Lin spoke while sighing.
