In the underworld of Southern Metropolis, there were naturally many different opinions about Wan Qingshan's murder and Lin Dong's imprisonment.

However, most people believe that Lin Dong's betrayal of his elder brother and his eagerness to seize power are the most likely reasons.

Even the police have solid evidence that Lin Dong hired someone to commit murder. What is there to sympathize with about this man?

For those involved in organized crime, there are three things they absolutely must avoid: having an affair with a mistress, washing clothes in a brothel, and wearing red shoes.

The term "seducing the second sister-in-law" refers to a woman who seduces the eldest brother and other gang members.

One should not covet a friend's wife, let alone the woman of one's elder brother or younger brother.

Therefore, this path must never be touched, or you will lose your hands or feet, or even your life.

The second is "washing the horse stalls." According to the sayings in the South and Hong Kong and Macao, "horse stalls" refers to the place where one's own horses are kept, that is, the territory of one's own gang.

You can raid other gangs' territory; that's called showing off and expanding your territory, and that's a merit.

But if you wash your own people's olives, you've committed a major taboo within the gang.

The last one, and the one most hated by gangsters, is wearing red shoes. This is a very creative and vivid way of putting it.

Besides women, what other people wear red shoes in daily life?

Of course, it's a man who was caught cheating on his wife by another man's husband. In his panic, he ran away wearing the woman's red shoes.

In the underworld, this is used as a metaphor for those who betray their brothers, stab their bosses in the back, or act as traitors or undercover agents.

Lin Dong was unfortunate; he committed the most hated and despised taboo in the entire underworld: wearing red shoes and betraying his boss.

During this period, Lin Dong's infamous reputation as an ingrate and a scoundrel in red shoes has spread throughout the entire underworld of Southern Metropolis, and is even showing signs of going beyond its immediate circle.

A rising star in the underworld was reduced to a prisoner in the blink of an eye, becoming a notorious traitor known as "Red Shoes."

These dramatic changes were truly unexpected.

Yunying Society and Gao Qijiang, as the instigators, were naturally happy to see Lin Dong's infamous end.

Therefore, they simply embellished the story, exaggerating and completely vilifying and smearing Lin Dong.

Who wouldn't want to beat up a dog that's fallen into the water?

In this whole affair, there was only one person whose feelings were the most complicated: Yu Ziyun, the owner of Queen's Bar.

She was very unhappy about Lin Dong's imprisonment.

In her mind, Lin Dong's character was such that he would never do something so immoral.

This man could even pull himself back from the brink of danger when she offered herself to him; how could he possibly succumb to the temptations of power and money?

Yu Ziyun believes Lin Dong is innocent, but who would deliberately frame him?

There is only one answer: Cloud Shadow Society.

Of course, it is highly likely that Gao Qijiang was also involved, because it is said that this guy has always suspected that Lin Dong killed his son.

Based on Yu Ziyun's understanding of the Cloud Shadow Society, especially its president Lu Jingye, since they couldn't obtain a prodigy like Lin Dong, destroying him in time was the most reasonable course of action.

Moreover, in addition to his existing businesses, Lu Jingye had long coveted Wan Qi's home appliance business.

This move achieves three goals at once:

1. Kill Wan Qingshan, destroy Lin Dong, and divide up Wan Qi's enormous profits and market share.

2. At the same time, by acquiring Wanqi, Yunying Society can further encroach on the lucrative North District.

3. Yunying Society's influence and power in Nandu will rise accordingly.

...

The study on the second floor of Bailuhu Villa.

Yu Ziyun seemed somewhat dazed today.

A deep purple trench coat perfectly accentuated her figure and feminine charm.

This woman is a captivating sight wherever she goes, a seductive beauty.

Her presence made Lu Jingye, who was sitting quietly at his desk reading, seem somewhat distracted.

"Ziyun, it's been over a month since I last saw you, and you've become even more charming."

Lu Jingye put down his book and stared intently at her.

"Godfather is joking. Even Lin Dong wouldn't bother with Ziyun's health. What's there to be proud of? Sigh..."

Yu Ziyun sighed, deliberately steer the conversation toward Lin Dong.

She knew she didn't have the ability to save Lin Dong, but that didn't stop her from not caring or paying attention to it.

"That's because Lin Dong is blind. He can't even look down on a woman like Zi Yun. He's wasted his life as a man."

Lu Jingye sneered contemptuously:

"It's obvious, Ziyun, that you care quite a bit about Lin Dong? What, you can't bear to see him die?"

"Does my godfather have a way to keep him alive?"

Yu Ziyun's eyes lit up, and she asked in a trembling voice.

Lu Jingye shook his head and chuckled, pointing to his shoulder:

“Come here and give your godfather a massage, and I’ll tell you slowly.”

Yu Ziyun frowned slightly, suppressing her annoyance and unease, and moved behind Lu Jingye, skillfully massaging his shoulders and neck with both hands.

"Ziyun's massage skills are still so comfortable. It's a pity that if you hadn't been so stubborn back then, you would have half of Yunying Society now."

Lu Jingye comfortably closed his eyes, enjoying the warmth and softness coming from behind him.

"Godfather, let's not bring up the past."

"Alright, Ziyun, before we talk about Lin Dong, let me ask you a question first."

"Godfather, please speak."

"What is your attitude towards Chang Kong? You should understand that Chang Kong has always liked you."

"Godfather, I will not get married."

"Hey? A girl shouldn't be saying such discouraging things."

Lu Jingye patted Yu Ziyun's hand that was roaming on his shoulder, and a soft, warm sensation came over him, making him momentarily lost in thought:
