Today is the auspicious day for He Bo and Huang Xiuhong's wedding.
Outside, the house was bustling with guests.
He Bo finally managed to get rid of a group of "bad friends" who were trying to get him drunk and entered the new house.
Huang Xiuhong leaned against the headboard, her head nodding as she dozed off.
He Bo sat on the edge of the bed, looking at Huang Xiuhong's delicate face, his heart softening as if he were soaking in honey water.
This is the woman he loves, the woman he longed for but could not have in his past life.
Now, she has finally become his wife.
In this life, he must love her well, cherish her, and make sure she lives a peaceful and joyful life.
That's right, He Bo has been reborn.
I was reborn on the day Cao Laoliu was executed.
On the day Cao Laoliu was executed, He Bo and many people from Peach Blossom Town went to watch.
When Cao Laoliu collapsed to the ground, He Bo felt a sharp pain in his head, and a new memory appeared within it.
In their previous lives, under Cao Laoliu's influence, He Bo's "Heroic Gang" and Cao Laoliu's "Sacred Hands Sect" merged, and the merged gang was called the Sacred Righteous Sect. Cao Laoliu was the gang leader, and He Bo was the deputy gang leader.
A few months later, He Bo angrily went to Cao Laoliu and questioned him: "Brother Cao, didn't you promise me that you wouldn't let everyone do anything illegal or criminal? How could you let Erniu Liangzi and the others learn to be thieves?"
"Xiao Bo, business is tough lately. If we don't let the brothers do some shady stuff to make ends meet, how will we fill our stomachs with so many people in the gang?" Cao Laoliu said casually after exhaling a string of smoke rings.
“But you promised me you wouldn’t let the brothers of the Righteous Gang do anything illegal or criminal. You can’t go back on your word,” He Bo argued.
“Xiao Bo, there’s no longer a chivalrous gang, only a holy righteous sect. Take my advice, it’s useless to be a good person in this world. As long as you can make money, who cares how you make it?” Cao Laoliu said.
“But I promised Erniu’s family that I wouldn’t let them do anything against their conscience.” He Bo’s eyes were filled with pain.
"Xiao Bo, what is conscience? How much does it cost per pound? Don't you think about it? Before, the brothers worked hard with you, barely making enough to survive. Now, the brothers can't even afford to eat meat two or three times a month? Xiao Bo, don't talk to me about conscience. If I didn't have a conscience, I wouldn't have lent you such a large sum of money in the first place." Cao Laoliu sneered, then continued, "It's not a bad thing for me to let Erniu and the others learn more skills. It's always good to have more skills! If you really look down on me, just pay back the money and leave the gang."
Cao Laoliu looked at He Bo with a sinister smile.
He Bo was filled with regret.
If he had known Cao Laoliu was so heartless, he wouldn't have borrowed five hundred yuan from Cao Laoliu when his grandmother was sick.
Now, Grandma is dead, and the debts are still unpaid.
Even if He Bo wanted to leave, he couldn't.
After returning home, He Bo thought about it for two days and finally decided to sell his blood to pay back Cao Laoliu's money.
He Bo didn't want to continue living like this.
Erniu and his gang can't stay in the Shengyi Gang any longer. If they continue to follow Cao Laoliu, their lives will be ruined.
Unfortunately, selling blood isn't something He Bo can do whenever he wants; he needs an opportunity. After registering his information at the hospital, He Bo returned home dejectedly.
A few days later, Cao Laoliu spoke to He Bo.
This time, Cao Laoliu adopted a very humble attitude.
“Xiao Bo, I’ve thought about what you said a few days ago. I think you’re right. Our Shengyi Gang can’t go on like this. If we do too many illegal and criminal things, we’ll eventually suffer the consequences.” Cao Laoliu said with a sincere expression.
"Brother Cao, are you willing to lead everyone onto the right path?" He Bo's face was full of surprise.
“You led everyone onto the right path, so you will be the leader from now on.” Cao Laoliu grasped He Bo’s hand and shook it a few times, saying, “I haven’t read many books and don’t understand many principles. I only know how to make quick money. After you become the leader, you will be in charge of all the affairs of the gang. You can tell everyone to do whatever you want.”
“This…” He Bo hesitated for a moment.
When the two gangs first merged, the Chivalrous Gang was doing quite well. He Bo had considered that if he became the gang leader, he would lead all the members of the Sacred Hands Sect onto the righteous path.
However, Cao Laoliu was unwilling to relinquish power, and He Bo owed Cao Laoliu money, so he had no choice but to condescend to become a deputy gang leader.
Unexpectedly, in less than half a year, all the legitimate businesses were lost by Cao Laoliu, and the gang was in complete chaos.
Now that Cao Laoliu is willing to relinquish power, He Bo is genuinely interested in reforming the gang's affairs.
"Brother Cao, this isn't right! I can't be ungrateful." He Bo thought for a moment and decided that he still couldn't take away Cao Laoliu's position as gang leader. As long as Cao Laoliu supported his reforms, he would be happy.
“Xiao Bo, you haven’t been ungrateful. I just have to go out on business. I don’t trust anyone else to handle things in the gang, I only trust you,” said Cao Laoliu.
“Well… there’s no need for me to be the gang leader. Brother Cao, just tell everyone before you leave that I can temporarily take over the gang’s affairs,” He Bo said.
"No, no, no, you must become the gang leader. Otherwise, your position won't be legitimate, and the original brothers from the Holy Hand Sect might not be convinced by you. How will you manage the gang then?" Old Cao smiled warmly.
“Alright, when you come back, Brother Cao, I’ll give the position of gang leader back to you.” He Bo thought for a moment and agreed.
Cao Laoliu was overjoyed and immediately summoned the gang members to announce that He Bo would be the leader of the Shengyi Gang from now on.
Not long after Cao Laoliu left Peach Blossom Town, He Bo was arrested.
It just so happened that a crackdown was underway. He Bo, this "gang leader," was sentenced to death.
The day before He Bo's execution, Er Niu went to see He Bo.
