Xin Fengxia smiled and said, "It's like this. Twenty years ago, in the 1940s, one of your cousins, he was in Tianjin Beiyang, Beijing Kaiming and other big theaters. Watching sister Xiaobai Yushuang's play, I even praised her..."
Xiaobai Yushuang said frankly, "But, I didn't formally follow him. He is really a royal person! What to do, dance, eat and drink all day long , Playing, having fun, pumping, it's just scamming, deceiving, kidnapping, cheating, stealing, ha..."
