Hong Kong 1980: Me and the Queen Swapped Clothes

So it wasn't really a big deal, but after hearing Fang Yanmei's words, Tung Chee-hwa couldn't help but wink at her.

It seems she thought that she had already fallen for Joey Wong so much by using all sorts of tricks to win him over, and was just putting on an act in front of him.

Fang Yanmei smiled bitterly. She knew what was going on in her own family. She wasn't the kind of person to act rashly. It was just that she didn't know what song Qin Weiming had written in his notes, and he had brought it up here, leaving her completely unprepared and afraid to say anything more to Wang Zuxian.

Fearing exposure, I'll have to take a closer look at the notes when I get back, at least to figure out what songs Qin Weiming wrote so I can sing them for Joey Wong.

Fang Yanmei was organizing her thoughts in her mind, completely ignoring the way Li Mengdie and Wang Zuxian were whispering to each other.

"What were you and Ah Ming talking about in the back? Ah Ming seemed a bit distracted the whole time." Li Mengdie asked Wang Zuxian directly, noticing Qin Weiming's expression.

Wang Zuxian shook her head, also puzzled. She usually spoke to Qin Weiming without restraint, and had never seen him act like this before: "I didn't say anything, I just asked him to sing a song for me, why is he acting so coy?"

Wang Zuxian had originally thought the same thing, but she spoke of it with some surprise to Li Mengdie, who, on the other hand, looked gossipy and excited: "Do you think he might be trying to use this opportunity to tell you something?"

"What? Really? That can't be right. Ah Ming doesn't seem like that kind of person." Wang Zuxian immediately rejected the idea.

But Li Mengdie was thrilled with her idea: "I think it's very possible. Amin isn't a blockhead; he's definitely very romantic."

"You seem to know him better than I do," Wang Zuxian said, her gaze sweeping over Li Mengdie.

Li Mengdie chuckled: "Isn't that all because of you? If it weren't for you, I don't think he would have hesitated to sing a song."

Since everyone was so familiar with each other, Li Mengdie naturally knew that Qin Weiming wasn't that kind of person. Therefore, in her opinion, Qin Weiming was only hesitant because of Wang Zuxian.

As Wang Zuxian listened to what Li Mengdie was saying, she herself came to her senses.

"In other words, he wanted to take this opportunity to express his feelings to me, which is why he was so conflicted and hesitant, right?" Wang Zuxian thought to herself. Then everything made sense. It was because she also knew how conflicted Qin Weiming would be on this point that when he said he needed to go home to prepare some more, Wang Zuxian had the same thought as Li Mengdie.

"Hiss, I didn't expect Ah Ming to have this side to him. Wait, what is he trying to tell me?" Wang Zuxian looked at Li Mengdie with a clear gaze.

To Li Mengdie, this clarity was nothing but foolishness. She glared at Wang Zuxian: "Don't you know what he's trying to say?"

"No," Wang Zuxian said matter-of-factly. "Besides, look at him. He doesn't seem nervous at all. He's probably just thinking about something and worrying about nothing."

"...You'd better be just as stubborn then." Li Mengdie wasn't going to put up with her. Knowing what kind of person her best friend was, she directly called her out.

Wang Zuxian smiled and did not argue with Li Mengdie. In her opinion, Qin Weiming's thoughts might not be as Li Mengdie said. However, she also noticed that only she could see the abnormality in Qin Weiming compared to before, while others did not notice anything.

The group's culinary journey continued without incident, and they satisfied their hunger before happily dispersing to return home.

Fang Yanmei immediately went upstairs to get Qin Weiming's notebook. After flipping through the pages from the past few days, she couldn't help but gasp. Qin Weiming had actually written a song in it and specifically told her to practice it, saying that it would be used on some occasions.

"He didn't even call me to tell me, which almost made me give myself away in front of Xiaoxian," Fang Yanmei complained irritably. She hadn't expected Qin Weiming to tell her this through a letter; he might as well have called.

Fang Yanmei could hear Qin Ma chatting on the phone outside. She sighed. She wouldn't be able to make phone calls lately; she would have to go outside to use one.

However, she became worried again. Her living expenses in Hong Kong were running out, and she hadn't found a job. She didn't know how Qin Weiming would live.

At the same time, she looked at the songs in her notes, her eyes shining brighter and brighter.

Sometimes, Fang Yanmei really wanted to open Qin Weiming's brain to see how this child's brain developed and why it could bring her so many surprises.

This song alone was already incredible to Fang Yanmei. The wonderful melody and the lyrics that seemed to speak to her heart were all perfectly combined.

The next line of text brought tears to Fang Yanmei's eyes.

"Dedicated to Sister Fang, whom I will always love."

This guy.

Fang Yanmei suddenly realized that it wasn't that Qin Weiming didn't call to tell her; it was because he had already made up his mind and didn't want to explain it to her over the phone. He insisted that she open the notebook and see this page herself.

Qin Weiming probably expected this day, so Fang Yanmei stopped herself from rushing out to call him.

If you really want to say it that way, she felt incredibly touched and wanted to see Qin Weiming in person, hug him, thank him, and also thank him for this song—he actually gave it to her.

Doesn't he know what this means?

Based on Fang Yanmei's understanding of Qin Weiming, this precocious young man must have known, but it was precisely because of this that he insisted on giving it to her that Fang Yanmei's emotions fluctuated so much.

"Really, how can I possibly thank him?" Fang Yanmei sighed. She knew how good Qin Weiming had been to her, but precisely because of that, she didn't know how to express her gratitude.

"You can sing this song to Xiaoxian in private. Of course, if she's particularly moved, remember to give her a perfunctory response for me." Qin Wei blatantly gave Fang Yanmei pointers on how to help him woo a girl.

If Tung Chee-hwa were here, he would probably be in no way spared from being scolded.

However, there was only one person here, Fang Yanmei, who was deeply moved. She carefully put away her notes and quietly began to practice on her own.

Qin Weiming didn't need to emphasize the importance of this song. From the first moment Fang Yanmei saw it, she realized that no one except Wang Zuxian should hear it.

But Fang Yanmei couldn't help but laugh when she saw the reason, and even thought that if Wang Zuxian saw it, she would assassinate Qin Weiming.

"Because Xiaoxian is tone-deaf, she can't sing it even if she hears it, so don't worry," Qin Weiming explained.
