Later, he smashed his father’s beloved flower vase, got severely punished, and was sent over to his uncle’s house for discipline.
At first, he looked down on Yu Jiang, thinking that a woman couldn’t be that capable. Later, when trouble broke out in the gambling house, his uncle sent her to settle the dispute, and he followed secretly.
He watched as the silent and seemingly frail woman single-handedly dealt with an entire gang.
The once arrogant men begged pitifully at her feet while she stood over a head dully, uttering with icy coldness, “A bunch of garbage.”
As it turned out, she wasn’t mute.
The group was terrified and wet themselves. Thus, she became famous after the fight.
He had been staying at his uncle’s place for about a month, insisting that Yu Jiang teach him martial arts. Bothered by his persistence, she finally agreed to teach him, but he had to get up at five in the morning to practice basic skills every day.
That was the happiest month in his life, even though the training was painful.
While he practiced, she would sit alone in the corridor, lost in thought. One day, he noticed that she was holding a heart-shaped stone that seemed to have something engraved on it. Before he could see it clearly, she swiftly put it away.
He teased that it might be a gift from her lover, which caused her cheeks to blush and ordered him to do fifty push-ups.
At that time, he couldn’t make out the feeling in his heart. It just felt sour and agitated.
He sneaked to the riverside in the middle of the night, wore his fingers raw until he found a more beautiful heart-shaped stone. He engraved her name on it and intended to give it to her. However, on that morning, a major incident occurred in the Qinglong Association.
Ji Chang, his uncle’s close confidant, had turned traitor. His uncle took Yu Jiang and left Jiangzhou.
Ever since then, he never saw Yu Jiang again.
He didn’t know whether she was dead or alive, or maybe, living a happy life with her lover. Perhaps that was the best outcome.
The unsent stone, he strung it with a rope and wore it around his chest. This stone seemed to remind him constantly that he couldn’t stop. He must keep going forward.
The answer you want is up ahead.
Lin Feng sensed something different in the implication but remained silent, feeling as if a wild storm had been stirred inside his mind.
He casually asked a question, but why did it seem like he had stumbled upon the leader’s hidden secret?
The leader wouldn’t kill him to keep the secret, right?
Lin Feng sort of regretted asking that question. Who would have thought that the leader, who was usually calm and composed, could chatter so much?
Even the most rational person tends to get emotional when alone at night.
After a long silence, Ran Tengxiao sighed, “What do you think? Is she dead, or is she alive somewhere in the world?”
Lin Feng considered his answer carefully. “She might have died, or she might still be alive…”
Ran Tengxiao gave him a blank look, wasn’t that just stating the obvious?
“The key to unlocking this mystery lies with Madam Jiang. This time, we must ensure that everything goes smoothly. ”
Zhu Shaodan had had a rough month, his friends grew tired of him freeloading, and the girl he had painstakingly pursued had fallen into the arms of another man.
Zhu Shaodan confronted Zhao Shun, the man who had stolen his girlfriend, and declared a duel after school.
He rallied some friends and confronted Zhao Shun in an alley after school.
He underestimated his opponent. Zhao Shun turned out to be a Taekwondo expert and gave Shaodan a severe beating.
The girlfriend who used to be so affectionate towards him now looked at him with distaste, leaning into Zhao Shun’s arms, “Shun, does it hurt? This guy is an idiot, don’t stoop to his level.”
Zhu Shaodan was furious and wanted to tear apart this pair of cheating lovers.
His friends quickly held him back, “Shaodan, we can’t afford to provoke Zhao Shun. His elder brother is someone from the Qinglong Association, a small gang leader. If we really mess with the Qinglong Association, we might not get away unscathed. Let it go.”
“Yes, let’s leave. Consider this a lesson. A woman who changes her feelings so quickly isn’t worth your effort.”
As soon as Zhu Shaodan heard the word “Qinglong Association”, he sobered up immediately. In Jiangzhou, those three words were enough to scare off even little children.
The Zhu family was nothing more than a nouveau riche family without any real underlying power or influence. If the Qinglong Association really wanted to deal with him, it would be as easy as crushing an ant.
But there was no way he could back down in front of this cheating couple. He clenched his teeth and said, “The…The Qinglong Association isn’t so great. If his…his brother can be a member, so can 1..”
