I made a decision with Fang Ying: the negotiation with Tam will take place seven days from now, and three days later, I will lead a team to Jinshan Jiao to meet with Tam. Tian Ye Gang will also notify Tam, and I must set off in three days.
I needed to share this news with my brothers.
"What? Going to Jinshan Jiao?"
Liuzai was taken aback, and the others reacted similarly, especially Wan Fei, who was always eager for excitement. He immediately shouted, "Take me to Dong Ge! I want to go!"
"Get lost! You can’t come along."
I shot Wan Fei a glare. This was something I intended to handle with Liu Sen. Zheng Yu couldn’t go either; as someone who understood me well, he needed to stay behind to guard against any sudden moves from Qian Cun Jin and Liu Hao. Most importantly, Zheng Yu had to ensure Linna’s safety.
"I’ll go, Dong Ge," Liuzai insisted.
I shook my head; it wasn’t appropriate for him to join either. It wasn’t that I wanted all the glory for myself, but Fang Ying had entrusted me with this task. Bringing along Liuzai, who was the nominal South District Boss, would complicate things—was he leading or was I? Fang Ying would definitely blame me for mishandling it.
It would just be Liu Sen and his crew accompanying me. I had already planned everything: we would set off in three days, spend two days at Jinshan Jiao, and then have two more days to gather information on Tam before the negotiation. Liu Sen needed to find a way to get close to important figures related to Tam. If anything went wrong on my end, he could hold a hostage in exchange for my safety.
Liu Sen nodded in agreement.
But Liuzai and Wan Fei kept insisting on joining, which I repeatedly refused. After the meeting, I sought out Zheng Yu again that evening; there were matters I needed to discuss with him before I left.
"My absence shouldn’t be too long. You must keep a close watch on Qian Cun Jin and Liu Hao’s movements. If anything seems off, contact Fang Ying immediately; she’ll handle it. Also, make sure you protect Linna’s safety."
"Don’t worry, Dong Ge," Zheng Yu replied with a smile. "I’ll keep an eye on things here; nothing will go wrong."
I smiled back; he understood what needed to be done. Only he knew about Linna’s identity at this point, and he recognized the importance of keeping her safe.
"Good! With your assurance, I feel much better."
After that, we discussed another aspect of the plan: if negotiations succeeded, what should be done next?
"Dong Ge, you’re right to seize this opportunity. You’ll handle the negotiations, but transporting the goods shouldn’t fall on you. With your understanding of the situation, do you think they can get their goods through?"
Zheng Yu looked at me with a knowing smile. I returned it; that was exactly my point!
Getting goods into Huaxia was Tam's responsibility; I would act as an insider. I knew when he intended to transport them—if I could inform the police about that timing, they could set up a tight net at the border!
We’d just wait for Tam’s people to fall into our trap! We’d catch all these drug lords and bring them to justice!
And none of this would implicate me directly; after all, I was merely there for negotiations. With so many people involved in this operation, who would suspect that I was an undercover agent?
Moreover, if these negotiations went well, I would become the deputy leader of the Kyoto Headquarters.
I told Zheng Yu with a smile that I hadn’t shared this information with the other brothers—not out of distrust but because many things were unnecessary for them to know. What if they got drunk and blurted it out? Knowing wouldn’t help them anyway.
But Zheng Yu was different; he was strategic and had a background that gave me complete confidence in him. He could help devise countermeasures and keep his police contacts informed about the current situation.
"Really? Haha! Then this operation is truly a win-win for you, Dong Ge! But be careful—Tam is not a good person; he has blood on his hands. You must wield Tian Ye Gang ’s banner wisely!"
I chuckled at his warning but thought it through: even if Tam had blood on his hands and negotiations were tough, after all, I was bringing him business.
What benefit would it serve him to kill me? He’d only invite Tian Ye Gang ’s retaliation upon himself.
So as long as we managed this operation well, there wouldn’t be any issues—I was destined to be the biggest winner in this scenario!
That night when I returned home, I told Linna about everything that had transpired. Upon hearing that Tian Ye Gang was really going to deal drugs, she became furious immediately. I had already informed her about Zheng Yu’s identity early on and shared my plans with her: we would negotiate but ensure that no drugs made it into Huaxia.
"Planning is good," she said cautiously, "but I'm worried about you; that place is not just chaotic—it has generals who are no ordinary men."
Linna looked at me with concern. I smiled and reassured her, "He's not just anyone; he's a human too, right? As long as he's human, he has ears and a brain. I'm just bringing him some business; he won't do anything to me. You don't need to worry."
Even so, the Drug Lord is really a lunatic; you have to be careful, she continued, her narrow eyes filled with tenderness, as if they could melt my heart.
I smiled and replied, "Don't worry. I've dealt with Drug Lords before. I understand how they operate. You don't need to worry about me; I will definitely come back safe."
"Really? Do you swear?" Linna asked, looking at me like a child.
I chuckled, pinching her cheek with a hint of affection. "Really, I swear I'll come back safe to watch cartoons with you."
"You said it; I’ll remember!"
"Remember it well; I always keep my word!"
It had been a week since I had enjoyed Linna's tenderness. After one night of affection, I felt utterly refreshed—though it was only emotional comfort for now.
The next day, I went to the office. Everything was peaceful throughout the day. That evening, while I was playing with Linna at home, Zheng Yu suddenly called me.
“Dong Ge, Lu Ying has been kidnapped again!”
“What?” I was taken aback.
Kidnapped again? What the hell are they trying to do?
Is it Liu Hao or Qian Cun Jin? Haven't they learned from Chen's fate? Kidnapping Lu Ying is practically asking for death!
“Dong Ge, what should we do? They specifically said you’re not allowed to go! They also demanded a ransom of ten million!” Zheng Yu informed me.
I frowned immediately.
Not allowed to go? Ten million ransom? What kind of nonsense is this?
So it's not about me; it's about the money?
“Notify Liu Sen immediately! Tell him to organize a rescue team!” I commanded.
If they won’t let me go, then Liu Sen should be fine going, right? With Liu Sen’s skills, if he takes people with him, I refuse to believe Lu Ying will be in danger!
“Okay!” Zheng Yu replied before hanging up. I quickly got dressed. Even if they wouldn’t let me go, I couldn’t just sit at home waiting! I was already anxious, and this matter couldn’t be told to Linna. I had to keep track of the situation at all times.
“What’s wrong?” Linna asked me.
“Oh, nothing much; a friend of mine ran into some trouble,” I casually said.
“A friend? What friend?”
Linna frowned at me and asked, "Who are your friends in the gang?"
"It's nothing, just some friends from the gang. Don't worry, I'll tell you everything when I get back, okay?" I replied with a smile, gently touching Linna's face before turning to leave the house. Lu Ying, as my friend, was also a woman with some psychological issues, and damn it, she had been kidnapped again!
I was determined to catch this person and give him a good beating!
After leaving the house, I headed to the Security Company. At that moment, Liu Sen had already taken thirty of his men to rescue Lu Ying. Not long after, Zheng Yu also arrived at the Security Company. We waited together for news from Liu Sen.
About half an hour later, my phone rang.
"Dong Ge, it's a trap!"
It was Liu Sen on the line. I was taken aback—what trap?
I quickly asked for details. Liu Sen explained, "They told us the location was a factory. When we got there, we saw a group of men assaulting a woman! In a fit of rage, we beat them all up. Some of them are still alive or dead; just after we finished, the police arrived and we were all arrested!"
What? Assault?
I was stunned! Zheng Yu immediately stood up in shock.
"Not your friend, Dong Ge! No, there’s no friend of yours here," Liu Sen quickly clarified. I was confused again. Not Lu Ying? What the hell was going on?
"Tell me exactly what happened!" I demanded from Liu Sen while gesturing to Zheng Yu to calm down and assuring him that it wasn't Lu Ying who had been assaulted.
"The woman and those ten or so men are all in cahoots. They’re not admitting to the kidnapping; they’re accusing us of trespassing and assault causing bodily harm," Liu Sen said. I was once again taken aback.
What kind of trick is this? Are they trying to set up my brothers? A trap just to get Liu Sen and his crew caught? Then what about Lu Ying? She had gone missing—was she okay?
