Chapter 297: Backstage 2

After Jay Chou returned, Leslie Cheung stood up: "It's my turn soon; you all chat first."

After Andy Lau came off stage, he met Leslie Cheung backstage: "Brother, I heard Brother Fei is backstage?"

Leslie Cheung smiled and nodded: "Yes, in the lounge."

Andy Lau danced with joy: "Great!" After speaking, he hurried toward Brother Fei's lounge.

Pushing open the door, Andy Lau's "Brother Fei" made everyone turn their heads.

"Tong Sheng is here, Ah Zhen is here, and Jay is here too." Andy Lau greeted with a smile, then sat down.

Everyone sat together, chatting intermittently.

At this moment, Danny Chan proposed: "How about playing mahjong?"

Everyone responded enthusiastically: "That's a good suggestion!"

Staff quickly brought a set of mahjong tiles, and everyone gathered around a table.

Just as the game was heating up, the door suddenly opened, and Anita Mui's voice came: "Good! While I'm on stage singing, you're actually playing mahjong?"

She walked over to Andy Lau: "Rongzi, let me take a few rounds for you."

Andy Lau smiled bitterly: "Sister Mei, this..."

Anita Mui had already sat down: "Stop talking nonsense, move over quickly."

Andy Lau helplessly stood up, and Anita Mui immediately joined the game.

"East Wind—"

"Pong—"

"One Bamboo"—

"Pong"—

"Wait, I win, all one suit." Jay Chou glanced smugly at Anita Mui, "Thanks for the Five Dot, Sister Mei."

"Just you wait, watch my next hand." Anita Mui pointed at Jay Chou and said angrily.

Meanwhile on stage, after Leslie Cheung finished singing "The Wind Continues to Blow," he began interacting with the audience: "Next, please welcome our beautiful Young Lady Anita Mui!"

The audience applauded thunderously, but Anita Mui did not appear for a long time; helplessly, Leslie Cheung could only continue interacting with the audience.

Ten minutes passed, and Leslie Cheung grew a bit anxious on stage: "Young Lady Mei might be delayed by something; let's do another song, 'A Chinese Ghost Story'."

Backstage staff, growing anxious, ran over hurriedly: "Sister Mei, Brother is waiting for you on stage."

Anita Mui didn't even look up: "Let him sing a few more songs; I'll be ready soon."

The staff looked troubled: "This..."

"Go quickly!" Anita Mui had already sat in his spot, "I'll play a few more rounds."

On stage, after Leslie Cheung finished singing "A Chinese Ghost Story," seeing that Anita Mui still showed no sign of coming out, he could only continue interacting with the audience.

"Where's Anita?" he asked the staff quietly.

"Still playing mahjong..." the staff answered awkwardly.

Leslie Cheung, helpless, could only continue singing "Silence is Golden."

Ten minutes passed, and Anita Mui remained immersed in the game, completely forgetting the situation on stage.

The staff had to remind her again: "Sister Mei, Leslie is waiting for you on stage..."

Only then did Anita Mui suddenly realize: "Oh my, I forgot!"

She quickly told the staff: "Go tell him immediately, let him sing one more song; I'll be right there!"

Leslie Cheung received the news on stage and smiled at the audience: "It seems your Young Lady Anita Mui is too exhausted from backstage; shall we do another song, the guide's 'Scoundrel', okay?"

The audience below cheered and jumped for joy, while the mahjong game backstage continued with full intensity. Anita Mui drew a tile and suddenly laughed loudly: "I win!"

Xiang Fei shook his head: "Sister Mei, your luck has turned around now."

Anita Mui winked proudly: "Of course!"
