Chapter 155 Arrival at Cheng Long's Mansion

“Sister-in-law, Xiaoming and I are about the same age, so there’s no need for Uncle to say that. Let’s each talk to ourselves.”

Upon hearing this, Xiao Fang gave Shen Fang a thumbs up. He's a good buddy. Xiao Fang is a good boy in front of his mother. Although he can't bring himself to call Shen Fang his uncle, he will acknowledge him.

Cheng Long invited the two to a banquet in the center of the garden, where Lin Fengjiao served tea and snacks.

Shen Fang lit a cigarette, took a puff, and put the cigarette to his lips.

He was originally going to offer a cigarette to Cheng Long, but who knew that Cheng Long had quit smoking. Instead, Man Shen asked for one, but Shen Fang didn't give one to him.

"Sister Manyu, smoking ages your skin quickly, you'd better not smoke."

Manyu rolled her eyes at Chen Fang: "Then why are you still smoking?"

Shen Fang smiled and said, "Men and women are different. Besides, the words 'wine, women, wealth, and anger' are used to describe men."

Manyu pouted: "Alright, I won't smoke."

Shen Fang looked at Cheng Long: "Brother, I remember you used to smoke, why did you quit?"

Cheng Long took a sip of tea: "Jonathan Lee advised me to quit smoking. I still want to develop my career in the music industry, and smoking hurts my voice, so I quit."

Shen Fang smiled and said, "Big brother is a multi-talented artist. It's not just a saying that someone who excels in acting can also sing."

Cheng Long nodded: "Actually, I've always loved singing, and I'm pretty good at it. Have you heard any of my songs?"

"Of course I've heard of it. The line 'My ambition is in my heart' from Police Story is sung by you, right, brother?"

Cheng Long was overjoyed to hear this and put his arm around Shen Fang's shoulder: "You really are my die-hard fan. That's right, I sang the song 'Buy a Song'. Zong Sheng wrote the song for me. People outside say that I don't sing well and that it always has a theatrical flavor, but I grew up learning opera. My master is a Peking Opera master, so I developed this habit from a young age."
