"Of course, I'm the boss, what I say goes. If you're willing, come over tomorrow to get the money and sign the contract. It's too late today, so I'll give you 20,000 yuan first to pay your hospital fees."

Tang Ping smiled, took out two stacks of banknotes from the drawer, and handed them over.

The girl took the money, somewhat at a loss, and after a long pause, she said with a firm look in her eyes, "Thank you, boss. Don't worry, I'll definitely come to sign the contract tomorrow!"

Tang Ping nodded, not paying any attention.

He helped Li Tiantian entirely out of sympathy. After all, 500,000 yuan was a piece of cake for him now, but for Li Tiantian, it could very well change her life.

But to his surprise, the next morning, the plane called Tang Ping and said that Li Tiantian had arrived and brought two thugs with her.

Tang Ping was completely bewildered. He asked Zhao Wei to drive him to Wan Zi Qian Hong, where he met two young men in the office.

One of the young men, wearing black-rimmed glasses, stepped forward, stared at Tang Ping, and slammed 20,000 yuan on the table, saying, "Take your filthy money, don't even think about cheating my sister!"

Tang Ping looked at Li Tiantian with a puzzled expression.

Li Tiantian looked guilty and pushed her younger brother aside, apologizing repeatedly, "I'm sorry, boss, my brother insisted on causing trouble, I'll make him leave right now. Xiao Chao, listen to me, Boss Tang isn't a bad person, he didn't ask me to do those disgusting things."

The young man named Xiao Chao said stubbornly, "Can any boss be a good person? I don't believe it. Sister, this is all their trick, don't be fooled."

"Xiao Chao!"

Li Tiantian was a little angry.

Tang Ping understood. He had helped Li Tiantian out of kindness, but her brother seemed to have misunderstood.

However, such things are inevitable. Who would believe that a big boss would give away 500,000 yuan for nothing, instead of coveting Li Tiantian's body?

Thinking of this, Tang Ping smiled, took out the prepared contract from the drawer, and said, "Young man, do you want to listen to what you're saying? You're educated, you can read, take a look at this contract and see if there's anything wrong with it? Of course, if you think I still have ulterior motives, then forget it, pretend I didn't say what I promised your sister."

Li Chao glanced at Tang Ping with a puzzled look, then gave him a signal. The young man next to him immediately went over and took the contract. He flipped through it page by page, examining it carefully for a long time before looking up and saying, "Xiao Chao, there's no problem with this contract."

"really?"

"See for yourself."

Li Chao still didn't believe it. He took it and looked at it for a while, and then his face immediately turned ashamed.

Not only is there no problem with the contract, but it's practically like giving them 500,000 yuan for free.

The contract only had one requirement: after Li Tiantian finished university, she would work for Tang Ping's company for three years, and she would receive a salary instead of working for free.

There are no penalties for breach of contract, and no other contractual traps.

This is like a windfall.

"Well? Anything else to say?" Tang Ping asked, smoking a cigarette.

"I'll figure out my own family's problems. You don't need to pity us! Sister, let's go!"

Li Chao's face flushed red, and he pulled Li Tiantian outside.

But when they reached the door, Li Tiantian broke free and said angrily, "Mom is still lying in the hospital waiting for money to save her life, Xiao Chao, I beg you, please stop making trouble, okay?"

Li Chao remained silent, letting his sister Li Tiantian turn and enter the office.

"Boss, I'm here to sign the contract."

Li Tiantian walked back and said.

Tang Ping nodded and smiled, "Good, young people have bad tempers, and they're going through a rebellious phase right now. You should guide him more. By the way, hasn't the police found the driver who caused the accident?"

Li Tiantian shook her head and said, "The person ran away, and there are no surveillance cameras in that section of the road."

"Yeah, try to think positively. Let's talk about it after we get the person back."

Tang Ping nodded, unsure how to comfort her, and asked the plane to take Li Tiantian to the finance department to get the money.

A dozen minutes later, Tang Ping thought Li Tiantian and the others had left.

Unexpectedly, Li Tiantian's younger brother, Li Chao, came back.

He happened to be on his way back to report when he saw him and immediately glared at him, saying, "Kid, don't be ungrateful. It's only because our boss is so kind, giving you 500,000 for free, that you want to cause trouble? Do you know where you are?"

Li Chao ignored him, knelt on the ground, kowtowed to Tang Ping, and stood up, saying, "I know, boss, thank you for the 500,000. From now on, my life is yours. I know my life is worthless, but as long as you give the order, I will go through fire and water. If I don't even flinch, I'm not a man."

"I don't want your life, and I don't need you to do anything for me. Go back and study hard. Don't be so impulsive in the future, and think more about your sister and your mother."

Tang Ping waved his hand, signaling the plane to take him out.

He didn't like lecturing anyone, and Li Chao's personality would cause trouble sooner or later, but Li Chao wasn't his son's relative, so Tang Ping was too lazy to say anything more.

...

Da Jiang is the top lieutenant under Ma Shuai. Although he is portrayed as very likable in the TV series, in the underworld, no one is immune to bloodshed.

Ma Shuai is known for his ruthlessness in Green Vine City, a reputation largely built by Da Jiang.

The last attack on Uncle Tai and this time the killing of Hu Xiandong were both carried out by Da Jiang and his men.

He's been making headlines in Jinghai City lately, and fearing retaliation, Ma Shuai arranged for him to lay low in Qinghua District. For his safety, he's been accompanied by several henchmen.

Dajiang scoffed at this, believing he had no reason to hide.

Jinghai doesn't have a single capable fighter.

Dajiang had no other hobbies; he wasn't a womanizer or a gambler, but he was somewhat depressed that his older brother had arranged for him to lay low.

After finishing his drinks at the food stall, Da Jiang stood up, looked at his underlings following behind him, and waved his hand with an annoyed expression, saying, "You guys can all go back now, stop following me!"

"Brother Jiang, this is Big Brother's arrangement, so let's be careful," the underling said.

"Get out! What danger could there be in a place like Jinghai? Get out, all of you get out!"

Da Jiang was furious when he heard this, chased after them, kicked a few of his underlings, and drove them away.

After returning from the food stall, Da Jiang, still holding a bottle of liquor in one hand, staggered back to his rented room.

"Hey, Dajiang?"

As he walked into a small alley, someone suddenly tapped him on the shoulder from behind and called out.

Who is it?

Dajiang slowly turned around, about to curse impatiently, when a steel pipe came crashing down in front of him.

Bang!

Da Jiang's vision went black, blood gushed from his head, and he passed out before he could even see who had done it.

"Damn it! You can't be gentle! What if you kill someone?"

"Hehe, no, I know what I'm doing."

"Let's go!"

Two dark figures put a sack over Dajiang's head, dragged him to a van with fake license plates parked by the roadside, and then quickly disappeared into the night.
