Three hours later.

Zhao Yazhi and Chung Chuh-hung came out of the kitchen together, carrying out several dishes.

"How did you all end up coming here together?" Although Zhang Shuai'an had just been drained several times, he was still able to maintain his [unfailing stamina].

The buff is rapidly recovering.

Zhao Yazhi glared at him and said with a hint of annoyance, "I just felt sorry for you spending the New Year here alone, and I wanted to make you happy."

Chung Chor-hung said with a smile, "That day, after filming with Sister Zi, we went shopping together and talked about Valentine's Day, and then..."

The rest was left unsaid, but the meaning was already self-evident.

Zhang Shuai'an looked at Zhao Yazi with some puzzlement, but there was something he couldn't bring himself to ask.

"I know what you want to ask!" Zhao Yazhi sighed softly, saying with a hint of helplessness, "Hanwei is working overtime today, and I even suspect he doesn't know it's Valentine's Day. Or rather, he's probably having a good time with his female assistant somewhere."

As a British colony, Hong Kong has long been influenced by Western culture, and the concept of Valentine's Day has been around for a long time.

Ordinary citizens may not celebrate this kind of holiday, but families like Zhao Yazhi and Huang Hanwei, who are well-off, generally value this holiday quite a bit, mainly to enhance the romance between the couple.

Moreover, Zhao Yazhi is currently pregnant, making her emotions much more delicate than usual.

If you don't receive timely care, it's like giving other men an opportunity to take advantage of you.

For example, right now, this scumbag named Zhang Shuai'an has taken advantage of my vulnerability and gone quite deep, even using three major telecom companies.

He said there were more patients at the hospital and he didn't have time to go home.

Zhao Yazhi carefully ladled fish soup for Zhang Shuai'an, saying, "My mother-in-law gets annoyed just looking at me. She keeps urging me to have another son for her family. She only took care of me for the first couple of days after she found out I was pregnant, but now she doesn't care at all. It's much better to come here and be happier."

Zhang Shuai'an couldn't help but ask, "What about your eldest son?"

"I sent him to my parents' place," Zhao Yazhi said casually. "The little guy is quite attached to his maternal grandparents, and besides, my sister is also looking after him."

Then she added, "However, I won't be able to come here starting tomorrow. I still have to go home for the New Year. I only let you get a big advantage so I could make it up to you."

Chung Chu-hung blushed, and thinking of the somewhat lewd scene just now, she dared not speak.

"It's okay, it's normal for men and women to enjoy each other's company," Zhao Yazhi said to Chung Chu-hung with a smile.

"Is it normal for two women to serve one man?" Chung Chu-hung couldn't help but mutter softly.

She didn't really know what was wrong with her. She couldn't accept it, but when she heard Zhao Yazhi say that doing so would make Zhang Shuai'an happy, she inexplicably agreed.

"Actually, it's quite normal."

Zhao Yazhi is quite knowledgeable, and she began to explain: "Hong Kong only passed the Marriage Reform Ordinance in 1971, which officially abolished the practice of concubinage. The polygamous system that existed before October 6, 1971 was legally recognized and could be legally maintained until the death of the person in question."

"It seems so!" Chung Chu-hung recalled carefully, "There used to be a few old men who were close to each other and had two wives living together."

Zhang Shuai'an remarked with a sigh, "This place is truly a complex mix of feudal superstition and modern capitalism, difficult to separate."

It seems that Ng Man-tat lived with two wives for a period of time. Later, he worked hard to earn money because he needed to support two families at the same time.

He didn't get divorced until 1994. In 1996, he married a Malaysian actress.

After dinner, Zhang Shuai'an lay on the sofa with two women on his arms, watching TV.

"Sister Zi, 1980 is destined to be your year."

Zhang Shuai'an said with some emotion: "At the end of last year, there was a movie called 'Young Detective Bao Qingtian,' and now there is another movie called 'Legend of Chu Liuxiang.' After the New Year, there will be another movie called 'Shanghai Bund,' and during the summer vacation, there will be another movie called 'Chasing Girls'—your value will definitely skyrocket, and you will be the highest-paid female star in Hong Kong."

Zhao Yazhi let Zhang Shuai'an's hands roam over her body and said softly, "Apart from 'The Legend of Chu Liuxiang,' weren't you helping me with everything else? All my earnings will be yours in the future."

Zhang Shuai'an looked up at Zhao Yazi: "Sister Zi, are you implying something?"

"No, you misheard." Zhao Yazhi didn't admit it, but subtly shifted her body to make it easier for his hand to explore the more mysterious area.

Zhang Shi'an now realized that Zhao Yazhi was probably already thinking about divorce.

In the original timeline, she endured until 1982 before getting a divorce. Then, in 1983, she started dating Huang Jingsang, and they got married two years later.

No matter how you look at it, Zhao Yazhi's extramarital affair is undeniable.

This timing further confirmed Zhang Shuai'an's suspicions, and her desire for a divorce was brought forward.

Actually, it's a good thing. Both sides are well aware of the situation and are each doing their own thing, so it's better to cut the Gordian knot quickly.

Chung Chu-hung, however, couldn't stand it and slapped Zhang Shuai-an's mischievous hand away: "Just watch TV and don't move around."

"We're going to move around a lot, and make a huge fuss about it!"

Zhang Shuai'an suddenly picked her up and rushed into the bedroom.

Chung Chor-hung immediately cried out, "Sister Zi, help me! A bandit king is trying to abduct a woman!"

"Nonsense! I am the legitimate heir of the dynasty, a descendant of the Son of Heaven."

Zhang Shuai'an instantly switched into acting mode and began to perform without hesitation: "Since you two beauties are the love of my heart, when I ascend the throne one day, you will be my imperial concubines, or even my empress."

Chung Chu-hung bit her lower lip and cursed, "You're just a bandit, so rude!"

"Hey, you little wench, still not convinced? Let's see how I deal with you!"

"Look ahead, it's pitch black, that must be the thieves' lair. Let's hurry up and wipe them out!"

Zhao Yazhi chuckled, made a sword gesture with her hands, and shouted, "Stop! You lecherous thief, put down that girl! Come at me if you dare!"

"That's what you said."

Zhang Shuai'an activated his [Innate Divine Strength], carrying one person on each shoulder, and rushed into the room.

When life is going well, there's no need for many words.

The next day at dawn.

Zhao Yazhi had disappeared, while Chung Chuh-hung was still fast asleep in Zhang Shuai'an's arms.

Not wanting to disturb Chung Chu-hung, Zhang Shuai'an leaned against the bedside, staring at the ceiling as he pondered some things.

After a while, Chung Chor-hung slowly woke up and leaned against him: "Why didn't you wake me up when you were awake?"

Zhang Shuai'an replied, "I wanted you to sleep a little longer."

Chung Chor-hung lay down for a while longer, then suddenly asked, "Are we going back to Chungking Mansions for the Lunar New Year tomorrow?"

Tomorrow is Lunar New Year's Eve.

"Go back." Zhang Shuai'an turned to look at her and said softly, "After all, Aunt He is my only relative here in Hong Kong. And your parents definitely need to meet her too, otherwise they'll surely be cursing me for kidnapping their daughter."

"It's good that you know." Chung Chu-hung hugged Zhang Shuai-an and whispered, "You—you won't get tired of me in the future, will you?"

Zhang Shuai kissed her forehead: "Of course not, never."

"Um.

""

After cuddling together for a while, the two got up and washed up.

Having learned her lesson from last time, Cherie Chung brought an extra set of clothes this time.

After leaving the house, I hailed a taxi and headed straight for Chungking Mansions.

Outside, the sky was bright and clear.
