“I happen to be short of people like you who are good at getting along on the streets. If you’re willing, you can work for me from now on. I wonder if you’d be willing?” Ning Zhiheng continued.
Upon hearing Ning Zhiheng's offer to recruit him, Liu Datong blushed slightly, immediately stood up straight, and loudly replied, "As long as you think highly of me, Liu Datou, I will go through fire and water, even unto death!"
Ning Zhiheng laughed and said, "It's not that serious. You're just helping me find out some information and run errands. If it really comes to knives and guns, I have plenty of men under my command. I don't need you."
Liu Datong was somewhat embarrassed: "That's true. Commander Ning, you wouldn't think much of my mediocre skills. But I will definitely be loyal and do my best. I will never let you down."
Ning Zhiheng smiled and said, "Since you've decided to follow me, I won't treat you unfairly.

Ning Zhiheng made it clear that they could use his name. After that, when he went out and boasted, he could mention the Military Intelligence Bureau's name and see who would dare to underestimate him, Liu Datou!
The two chatted for a few more minutes, and Ning Zhiheng felt genuinely tired. Thinking that he still needed to find the house with the potted flowers on the windowsill the next day, he sent Liu Datong back and quickly lay down to rest.
