In order to make a name for himself in 1997, Dong Ye had no choice but to hold back, as the mountain road was difficult to traverse.
Master Er also had a difficult time walking and needed Chen Rou's support.
Her cry of "Ah-ye" nearly made him fall to the ground, but after a long pause, he smiled and said, "It seems something's happened on the mainland."
Chen Rou was on the phone the whole time, and she spoke standard Mandarin most of the time, so it must be related to the mainland. In addition, she suddenly called him "Ah Ye" so affectionately. After thinking about it, Er Ye understood that the matter was about the mainland.
Furthermore, the fact that Cheung Tze-keung's case is currently being tried by the Supreme People's Court of mainland China has brought up many issues related to Kowloon. After thinking about it again, Mr. Yeh understood more and more, and said, "It seems that the mainland government is preparing to settle accounts with us."
Chen Rou remained sincere, saying, "I'm sorry, I didn't do a good enough job."
Just watch her reaction, but at this moment, Master Er became calm instead.
He waved with a smile, then took Chen Rou's hand and said, "That day will come sooner or later. That old scoundrel surnamed Dong may not come, but I'm mentally prepared. Don't worry, Rou, no matter what the mainland's attitude is, I can accept it."
Chen Rou nodded, but then suddenly threw a question at Master Er.
She said, "The mainland police must arrest a typical case in Kowloon to deter all gangs and serve as a warning to others. That person is like Cheung Tze-keung. When the handover comes, he will be killed by a bullet. You and Mr. Tung, who do you think should be the one? Also, you need to think carefully about whether you want to cooperate with the mainland government in this regard to whitewash yourselves."
By the way, Song Yuanchao was following right behind the boss, which was in front of Chen Rou.
Hearing this, the honest and simple-minded Song was startled. When he turned to look at Chen Rou, his expression was full of surprise.
It's no wonder he was surprised, because Chen Ke said that Chen Rou was to select a big shot to take to the mainland to set an example, but she falsely claimed that anyone who went to the mainland would die, which contradicted the facts.
Why did she say that, and instead say that she was going to her death? I ask you, which of you, Master Er or Master Dong, would be willing to go?
If Master Dong were to hear about this, wouldn't the two of them start fighting right here on this mountain today?
However, although Song Yuanchao was a senior, Chen Rou, as Yue Zhongqi's apprentice, was much better than him and Chen Ke in terms of strategy. Seeing that he wanted to say something, Chen Rou raised her hand to shush him and signaled him to move forward.
By this time, Master Er had almost accepted the 'bad news', and Chen Rou said again, "I will also tell Master Dong the truth about this matter. You can consider whether you or he should go. I will also let him think about it and make a decision."
For some reason, A Yuan stopped in front of her and refused to move, repeatedly calling out "Mang Mang." So Chen Rou continued forward.
Grandpa stood there, feeling a buzzing in his head.
Just as he paused, Master Dong was carried up the steps by his men.
He was unaware that the death knell for their gangs had already sounded. He assumed that Master Er's pale complexion was due to his advanced age and inability to walk, and that he wanted to make a sarcastic remark to his mortal enemy. So he smiled and said, "Master Er, if you can't walk, don't force yourself. Be careful not to slip and fall, or you might get maimed or even die here. That wouldn't be good."
Seeing that Grandpa Er looked unwell, Brother Chicken and Brother Liang volunteered, asking, "Father, do you want us to carry you?"
After a moment of reflection, Grandpa Er waved his hand and said, "No need, I can walk."
A moment later, he whispered to Chicken Brother, "Just now, Arou called me 'Aye'."
Chicken Bro's eyes lit up when he heard this: "So that question has an answer. Miss is from our gang, right?"
But then she asked, "Did she have a DNA test done with you? Has the result been released yet?"
Regarding Chen Rou's lineage, Master Er was extremely curious and eager to find out immediately.
He even felt that he would not rest in peace until that problem was thoroughly investigated.
But his thinking changed later, especially after Xiao A Yuan was born. As the child grew up day by day, each day brought new fun, tugging at his heartstrings and tugging at his lungs. At that moment, he thought, what does bloodline matter? As long as he lives longer and accompanies the child more in his growth, he will be the great-grandfather in the child's memory.
So, as early as after A Yuan was born, he had already decided not to test or look at the DNA.
Even if Master Dong obtains Chen Rou's sample through some means and produces DNA results, he will not admit it.
A girl who can single-handedly capture a notorious criminal, whose motorcycle skills are so impressive that even a bunch of kung fu movie actors in Hong Kong would find it hard to replicate, a girl whom an old white British police officer personally appointed as a mainland spy—she can only be the Er family's child. Chubby, soft, fierce when she's being fierce, and adorable when she's being obedient, Ah Yuan can only be the Er family's little grandson. Master Er may not fight for anything else, but he must fight for Chen Rou.
Even his disbanding of the club and early retirement, seemingly without striving, was actually a form of striving through inaction.
Even he was troubled when faced with the choice between him and Master Dong—who should go to the mainland and be executed.
Being tried and executed by the mainland government is the fate that those involved in triads deserve.
After all, just seven or eight years ago, it was easier for Master Er and Master Dong to kill a person than to slaughter a chicken.
As fellow triad bosses, does that mean he pushed Master Dong out to the mainland to die?
That way he could live, and his granddaughter and grandson would be his alone. But judging from Chen Rou's tone, the one who survives must cooperate with the government to expose the other's evil deeds.
In other words, if he wants to live, he has to betray Master Dong and Yi Yong Tang. Is that feasible?
