Actually, that's not true, but Tang Yu would never let the conversation veer into a discussion about whether the wealthy family would accept her.

It makes her seem like she's been kicked out of a wealthy family; she might as well create a persona of someone who falls for someone else.

As soon as these words were spoken, the reporter became excited and immediately started asking questions as well.

"So you've fallen for someone else? You got dumped, Mr. Wang? What about your boyfriend? Why hasn't he come back?"

"You clearly had the chance to be a rich man's wife, but you chose to risk your life. Do you look down on the money of the wealthy?"

Tang Yu gave an ambiguous answer.

"We live in an era where love is free. If you fall out of love and start a new relationship, are you going to be drowned in a pig cage?"

As for money, who would complain about having too much? But it's always better to spend money you earned yourself.

After Tang Yu finished speaking, she got into her car and left the reporters' pursuit.

Anyway, these Hong Kong media outlets either write nonsense when they don't answer questions, or they write nonsense even when they do answer them.

It would be better to find them some interesting topics to get them excited while writing.

After returning home, Tang's father looked a little serious, but Tang Yu's grandfather happily went up and hugged his granddaughter.

“I always thought that our Xiaoyu would soar to great heights in the future, and sure enough, you will succeed no matter what you do.”

My grandfather was a Shanghai-style tailor who fled to Hong Kong from Shanghai to escape the war. He witnessed the ups and downs of the times, so he had a very tolerant mindset.

Tang Yu's father received an elite education from a young age and grew up in a peaceful environment, witnessing the family's transformation from hardship to wealth.

Therefore, he didn't quite understand Tang Yu's choice, even though there was a more respectable future ahead of her.

"What will you do next? Have you had enough fun?"

Tang Yu was not surprised at all by this question.

"That's not enough. This year I should focus on skiing, next year I should go into racing, and maybe I'll climb Mount Everest in the future, but spending a year on extreme sports would be a bit boring."

Maybe I'll become a model again, or start my own brand in the future. Anyway, I have a lot of ideas in my head.

"I don't know how long I'll live, but if I had to play the violin every day, traveling to major cities as a violinist, I'd feel like I'd rather be dead."

After Tang Yu finished speaking, Tang's father threw the newspaper on the table.

"it's up to you."

After saying this, Tang's father turned and left.

However, when Tang Yu picked up the newspaper, she was surprised to find that it was a Ming Pao report praising her, saying that she was a confident young person of Hong Kong.

Grandpa Tang sat on the sofa and laughed.

"Don't worry about your dad's bad temper. He's lived a very proper life and thinks that's the most stable way, so he wants you to take a simple but stable path."

But in a lifetime of only a few decades, no one can predict what will happen in the future. Grandpa has seen far too many ups and downs.

A millionaire can go bankrupt one day, and a poor boy can become incredibly wealthy one day. The key is to be happy. Grandpa supports you.

Tang Yu smiled, then took her grandfather's hand and spoke.

"Grandpa, take me to your studio! You must have made me new clothes, right? They must look really nice."

The next day, while Tang Yu was still sleeping at home, the major media outlets that had surrounded her at the airport the day before immediately wrote various dramatic headlines.

The clickbait headline remains unchanged.

"1440-degree spin to outmaneuver Wang Shao! Tang Yu reveals: 190cm hunk is even more exciting!"

All other headlines pale in comparison to this one.

Red Bull Wings and the Luxury Birdcage: Tang Yu Buys Freedom with a Million Dollars

"Refusing to Rely on Parents! Tang Yuxue, from a Wealthy Family, Resolves: My Brother Immigrates, I'll Retire; Red Bull Gold Is Enough to Buy Half a Mountain!"

"Is She Falling for Someone Else? Queen Tang Reveals Her New Love is a Stunning Man!"

Tang Yu grew up watching TV programs and became accustomed to the sensationalist headlines of Hong Kong gossip magazines.

Even when it's her turn, she can handle it calmly.

Only Tang's mother was somewhat unaccustomed to it.

After all, she was a prodigy violinist in the past. When the newspapers reported that Tang Yu won first place in a competition, they were full of praise and compliments.

As a result, my daughter's topics of conversation have now turned into provocative ones.

"Mom, calm down. These newspapers are all about gossip anyway. I have a proper interview coming up."

Ming Pao will be interviewing me this afternoon; you'll see a positive report about it tomorrow.

In the afternoon, Tang Yu met with a reporter from Ming Pao.

After shaking hands, the two sat down in the restaurant to chat.

"The last time we interviewed you was a few years ago, when you had just won first place in a junior competition in the UK, and we thought you would become a violinist in the future."

To be honest, I was shocked when I heard you won.

"Because people change, at seventeen I thought adventure was a fun and exciting thing."

Perhaps when I look back at thirty, I'll see how absurd and naive I was in my youth, but I can't stand in the future and decide my life now.

I only make choices that I'm willing to make in the present moment, without considering whether I'll regret them in the future.

After answering this question, the reporter began to ask Tang Yu when she started learning to ski, how she felt when she participated in the competition, whether she encountered any difficulties during the process, and how she felt after winning the championship.

These were all routine questions, and Tang Yu communicated smoothly with the reporter.

Later in the conversation, the reporter asked some more in-depth questions.

"You won the competition in the year of the handover, and many Western media outlets praised you as a member of the free generation. Do you want to convey a certain Hong Kong spirit to the world through extreme sports?"

"Are you just waiting here to set a trap for her?" Tang Yu asked with a smile.

"Life isn't that complicated. Everything you do has to be meaningful. At least when I do extreme sports, many Hong Kong media outlets think I'm crazy and looking for thrills."

If this represents the spirit of Hong Kong, then we Hong Kong people should collectively see a psychologist.

After saying this, the reporter laughed and then asked another question.

"You said in an interview with ESPN that gold medals are calculated using degrees, not chromosomes."

However, many girls in Hong Kong are still being advised that sports are dangerous and that marrying a good man is the only way out. What are your thoughts on this?

What opinion can one have? We should respect individual destiny.

There's nothing wrong with getting married and starting a family. Pursuing freedom is also about being happy. It's not a black-and-white issue. The key is whether women in Hong Kong have a choice.

We have this right. When we want to get married, no one can interfere; when we want to pursue freedom, we won't be judged.

Actually, there's no need to overthink it—get married if you want to, and be free if you want to be. If you're unhappy in your marriage, separate; if you get tired of being single, find another partner.

As for right or wrong? That's something you have to weigh for yourself. Every choice has a price; choosing a lifestyle that makes you comfortable is more important.

After the interview, Tang Yu also finished her meal with the reporter.

Then, she received a call from her grandfather.

"Uncle Huang is in the shop. Want to see me? Sure, I'll be right there."

Grandpa Tang Yu has been a tailor for many years, so he usually makes custom-made suits and cheongsams for some social celebrities in Hong Kong.

This time it was Uncle Wong Jim who came to visit. Could it be that he wanted to invite her to his show?

Let's talk about it after we meet the person.

Chapter 4 Supermodel 4

"I was just chatting with your grandfather, and I heard you're planning to take Old Tang to Beijing after the Chinese New Year?"

Hearing Uncle Zhan say that, Tang Yu smiled and nodded.

"I've never been to Beijing before, and I want to take my grandfather to see what real ancient buildings look like."

After my trip to Beijing, I'll probably continue south to see the scenery of Jiangnan, and then go to Shanghai. Grandpa is also very curious to know what Shanghai is like now.

After Tang Yu finished speaking, Grandpa Tang spoke up from the side.

"Decades have passed in the blink of an eye. If I don't go back to see it in my lifetime, I may never have the chance again."

"Your brother is about to immigrate to Canada, and you're currently developing your career abroad. Are you planning to immigrate in the future?"

Upon hearing what Uncle Wong Jim said, Tang Yu looked surprised.

“I don’t have that plan. I think being Chinese is great and I don’t want to immigrate, but my brother has his own ideas and I respect them.”

When the conversation reached this point, Uncle Wong Jim asked Tang Yu with a smile about her experiences abroad over the past year, whether she had encountered discrimination in competitions, and how she trained to perform those high-difficulty moves.

"When I was a child, I watched TV dramas and thought I was a martial arts prodigy, so I started practicing somersaults and sword dancing at home."

Later, when I got into a fight with a boy at school, I discovered that I was actually a genius; the tallest and strongest boy in school couldn't beat me.

After Tang Yu finished speaking, Uncle Huang Zhan burst into laughter.

"I used to see you playing the violin and always acting like a lady when you met with elders. I never imagined you would get into fights at school."

"Because I was pretty, boys would tease me and make inappropriate jokes."

Even after a stern warning, these people would only escalate their actions and spread more malicious rumors about me, so I had no choice but to beat them up.

Tang Yu didn't really understand why boys of that age couldn't speak properly.

He seems to like her a little, but he likes to make inappropriate jokes and say inappropriate things, hoping to see her blush and become shy.

Tang Yu had read many novels about matters between men and women since she was a child, so she really had no sense of shame about it.

Instead, she always looked forward to finding a handsome guy to date when she grew up.

"Do you still want to develop your career abroad in the future? Have you ever thought about returning to Hong Kong? You can't do extreme sports for the rest of your life."

Upon hearing Uncle Wong Jim's question, Tang Yu answered with a smile.

"I enjoy extreme sports, but I don't want to compete all year round. I would feel like I've lost my freedom."

Just like when I didn't sign with a record label last year, I don't like doing the same thing all year round.
