Hong Kong: Rise of the Kings.

Chapter 1124 1110 [Pink Overlord]

now--
Blue sky and white clouds.

A silver Mercedes was parked in front of a coffee shop near Dolphin Bay Pier. People in this area are used to seeing luxury cars and don't think much of it.

The coffee shop is not big, with three or five tables of guests sitting there. Everyone is quietly sipping coffee, and two tables of guests are whispering to each other.

At the glass round table by the window, a young man wearing white casual clothes and sunglasses put down his coffee cup and asked a girl at the same table, "Is your father in good health?"

The girl nodded somewhat awkwardly. She was very beautiful, with willow-shaped eyebrows, a fair face and red lips. Her long hair was tied behind her back, making her look heroic.

Her hand holding the glass looked slender, but appeared very strong.

Du Yongxiao did not bring Zhuang Dingxian, Yan Xiong and others with him when he came to Jeju Island this time.

Zhuang Dingxian has been with me for so long, it’s time for him to go back to work in the Hong Kong Police Force. Yan Xiong has several duties to handle, so it’s impossible for him to accompany me around.

As for Jiang Ling'er, like Yan Xiong, she has also started working and shifted her attention from Du Yongxiao to work.

Seeing that the matter in Korea had been resolved, Du Yongxiao planned to travel for a while and then go back. In the end, Yan Xiong thought more carefully and decided that since the Koreans were unreliable, he might as well dispatch one from Hong Kong. After much deliberation, he chose Li Yingnan.

People who are familiar with Du Yongxiao know that Li Yingnan was married to Du Yongxiao by their parents when Du Yongxiao was young.

Unfortunately, the Du family was in a recession at that time. Du Yongxiao's father, Du Dapao, failed in the soap business and lost all the money he brought from the mainland. Finally, the whole family moved to the slum of Shixiawei.

In contrast, Li Yingnan's father, Li Jianqing, has established himself in the martial arts world. He not only opened a martial arts school with Hong Yihai as the head, but also recruited disciples to expand his sphere of influence.

Li Jianqing is a martial artist. From the beginning, he has never despised the Du family, nor does he think it would be a big deal if the Du family fell into poverty. As long as Du Dapao is willing to speak, he will definitely keep his promise and marry his daughter Li Yingnan to Du Yongxiao.

Du Dapao, however, was too concerned about his reputation and not only did he not take the initiative to approach Li Jianqing to discuss his children's marriage, he also deliberately avoided Li Jianqing.

Li Yingnan is not at all interested in her fiancé Du Yongxiao, whom she has never met.

She was spoiled and raised by her father Li Jianqing since she was a child. He gave her whatever she wanted. Even though girls didn't like bonuses and liked practicing martial arts, Li Jianqing still spoiled her.

As a result, at a young age, Lai Yingnan earned the reputation of being the "dividend king" and was well-known in the Wan Chai District.

At that time, Du Yongxiao had just started to take the police academy entrance exam. Unfortunately, he was timid and cowardly, and did not perform well throughout his entire study period. Occasionally, he mustered up the courage to rescue his junior sister Huang Ying, but he also offended Bucktooth Ju, and was finally blocked by Bucktooth Ju and almost beaten to death.

It was the beating by Bucktooth Koi that turned Du Yongxiao into the Du Yongxiao he is today. He then had a smooth career. Logically, he would have been assigned to pick up cow dung in the New Territories after graduation. However, he relied on his ability to go to Yau Tsim Mong and work as a plainclothes policeman with Yan Xiong.

What happened next was even more incredible. Du Yongxiao made rapid progress and became a god both in his career and in business.

As for Li Yingnan, when she learned that her fiancé was named Du Yongxiao, a weak-willed policeman, she looked down on Du Yongxiao, thinking that Du Yongxiao lacked manliness and that even if he was a policeman, he was still a low-class guy.

So when Li Jianqing mentioned the Du family again and said that Li Yingnan was old enough to get married, Li Yingnan said nothing on the surface, but inwardly she looked down on Du Yongxiao.

In fact, Du Yongxiao was indeed not worthy of Lai Yingnan at that time. Lai Yingnan learned martial arts from his father and made his debut in Wan Chai at the age of fifteen. He relied on his superb kung fu to make Hong Yihai famous.

Once, Hong Yihai Martial Arts School and Zhenwei Martial Arts School had a feud. The two sides set up a fighting ring to decide the winner, life and death.

Seventeen-year-old Li Yingnan represented Hong Yihai and competed with Qin Gang, the most powerful man in Zhenwei Martial Arts School, known as "Iron Wire Fist".

Despite everyone's pessimism, Li Yingnan not only defeated Qin Gang to win the championship, but also planted Hong Yihai's flag on the grounds of Zhenwei Martial Arts School, which was truly impressive.

If the situation continues to develop in this way, in the future Lai Yingnam will replace her father Lai Jianqing as the new generation leader of "Hong Yi Hai", and she will be the only female leader in Hong Kong.

Unfortunately, things are unpredictable.

Ni Kun, the rickshaw puller, suddenly appeared!
Ni Kun's nickname is Rotten Life Kun. He is a disciple of Hong Yihai boss Li Jianqing. He has a heroic and steady personality and is ruthless in his actions.

According to the development of events, no matter how capable Lan Ming Kun was, he was still just a rickshaw puller and had no qualifications to compete for the position of the leader of Hong Yi Hai. But the fact was that he changed his fate against all odds.

And the person who helped him change his fate was Du Yongxiao.

At that time, Du Yongxiao had already begun to transform himself into a dragon, and he needed a lot of people around him to assist him. To put it bluntly, if he was Liu Xiu, the chosen son of heaven, then Lan Ming Kun, Shao Ya Jian, Kuli Qiang, as well as Buck Tooth Ju, Big Head Wen, Zhuang Dingxian and others would all be the "Twenty-Eight Constellations" around him.

When Du Yongxiao was in charge of Nathan Road and became the Chinese detective, he directly appointed Lan Mingkun as the chief steward of the dark department of Nathan Road, responsible for helping Du Yongxiao collect fees.

From then on, Lan Mingkun was out of control. As Du Yongxiao became increasingly powerful, his status and position also rose.

It was not until Du Yongxiao became Chief Superintendent of Police that Lan Mingkun was no longer called Lan Mingkun, but was respectfully addressed as "Mr. Ni" or "Brother Kun".

At this time, Lan Ming Kun was already a special existence in the entire Hong Yihai. His words carried more weight than those of the leader Li Jianqing, and he was even more intimidating.

It is conceivable that how could Li Yingnan, the daughter of Li Jianqing, compete with him at this time?

However, Lan Mingkun is a smart man. He always treats Li Yingnan with great respect and dares not offend her in any way.

The reason is simple. Lan Mingkun knew that Li Yingnan and Du Yongxiao had been engaged as children.

Although both parties no longer mentioned it, which meant that the marriage did not count, Lan Mingkun knew that as long as there was such a relationship, he had to be respectful to Li Yingnan.

In fact, Lan Mingkun's "changing fate against the will of heaven" has already made Li Yingnan, who considers herself a favored girl of heaven, dumbfounded, and Du Yongxiao, who hid behind Lan Mingkun and helped him "change fate against the will of heaven", made her even more ashamed.

She used to think that Du Yongxiao was not worthy of her.
Now Du Yongxiao has become a chief superintendent and a young tycoon in Hong Kong, but she, a girl who only knows how to wield guns and sticks, is not worthy of Du Yongxiao. In the past, Li Jianqing took into account the relationship between the two families and mentioned this marriage in front of his daughter Li Yingnan from time to time. Now that he sees that Du Yongxiao has achieved such amazing results, he has stopped talking about it.

Li Yingnan knew that it was because her father felt that he was not worthy of the other person.

Then Du Yongxiao continued to make rapid progress, and he was promoted from Chief Superintendent to the first Chinese Commissioner of Police, First Earl of the British Empire, and so on.

At this time, Li Yingnan felt extremely sad and vaguely regretful.

She felt that she was unlucky. How could she miss such a good opportunity?
Especially when she read some gossip about Du Yongxiao and those women in the newspaper, she felt even more uncomfortable, as if her man was taken away by someone else.

Unfortunately, there is no medicine for regret in this world.

Seeing his daughter like this, Li Jianqing guessed what she was thinking. He knew what she was thinking and felt that it was simply a pipe dream for his daughter to propose marriage with the Du family now.

What is the current status of the Du family?
Not to mention that the people from the four major families in Hong Kong wanted to be close to him and could not wait to marry their daughters to Du Yongxiao, even those foreign high-ranking officials tried to curry favor with Du Yongxiao and wanted to be his sons. How could they possibly afford to marry such a person?

Hey,
Maybe this is what it means: you ignored Du Yongxiao in the past, but now Du Yongxiao is out of your reach.

In order to dispel his daughter's unrealistic idea, Li Jianqing began to ask matchmakers to introduce a boyfriend to his daughter.

Unfortunately, Li Yingnan has now been bewitched by a super high-quality man like Du Yongxiao, and she no longer has eyes for other men.

What's more, the people that the matchmakers help introduce are all gangsters who are good at fighting and killing, or at worst honest people from well-off families. They have no chance of getting involved with the wealthy and powerful families in Hong Kong.

At this time, Li Yingnan always felt that those men were too low-class. If she hadn't made the wrong choice at the beginning, she would be the wife of the Commissioner of Police now!

With this thought in mind, Li Yingnan is getting older day by day, but as for marriage, there is still no solution.

In terms of work, Hong Yihai has now transformed himself. He no longer relies on fighting and killing to make a living. Instead, he has established a security company under the leadership of Ni Kun. It is a multinational corporation with branches in Japan, Thailand in Asia, Kenya in Africa, the United Kingdom, France in Europe, and North America. Of course, these security companies are fundamentally affiliated with the Du Group.

As Hong Yi Hai's former big sister, Li Yingnan is now also an important member of the security company. In addition to training students, she travels around the world to protect celebrities and dignitaries.

During this period, her horizons gradually broadened, and her feelings towards Du Yongxiao changed from being unwilling to accept her fate in the beginning to becoming much more restrained.

Yan Xiong brought Lai Ying-nam from Hong Kong to South Korea mainly because of Lai Ying-nam's professional ability. As for Lai Ying-nam's personal relationship with Du Yongxiao, it was not within his consideration, because as a security guard, the first element is to put aside selfishness and not mix any personal feelings into the protection work.

There is another point that Yan Xiong did not say. In fact, this is also an assessment of Li Yingnan. If she completes the task successfully, she will be able to be promoted again in the security company and reach the super executive level.

Du Yongxiao did not say anything about Yan Xiong choosing Li Yingnan as his bodyguard for his trip to Jeju Island.

Because he knew that Yan Xiong must have his reasons for doing this, and now he felt that his relationship with Li Yingnan was normal. If he objected, it would seem that he could not let go of the past.

As Samsung Group developed its tourism business, Du Yongxiao also purchased a lot of properties in South Korea. In addition to Seoul, Busan and other places, he even bought an entire holiday villa in Jeju Island.

Although he is not sure about other things, Du Yongxiao knows that the things he buys now will appreciate in value in the future, especially those prosperous areas in Seoul, which are expected to increase by hundreds or thousands of times.

After Li Yingnan came to South Korea from Hong Kong, she began to travel around South Korea with Du Yongxiao. Du Yongxiao bought a property wherever he went. Li Yingnan had a very leisurely life with him. She was more like a domestic waiter. She usually helped with cleaning, paying water, electricity, property and other miscellaneous expenses. The rest of the time she followed Du Yongxiao around.

In fact, when Li Yingnan saw Du Yongxiao again, he felt complicated.

She told herself that the person in front of her was no longer the Du Yongxiao with whom she had an arranged marriage, but the person she wanted to protect. However, in front of the smiling Du Yongxiao, she always felt a little depressed and restrained.

When Du Yongxiao saw her like this, he thought she was not used to this kind of life.

Because he knew clearly what Li Yingnan had done in the security company over the years, especially in Kenya, Africa, where she led a group of people to carry out a bloody massacre with those black bandits in order to protect the gold mines, diamond mines, and oil under the Du Group.

Even Du Yongxiao admired the woman who was not afraid in the hail of bullets.

It is natural to feel a little uncomfortable in such a quiet and casual environment.

To reassure Li Yingnan, Du Yongxiao comforted her, "We have had too many exciting days. It's good to have a leisurely day like this occasionally! Don't think of me as traveling, but imagine yourself as traveling too. We are traveling together, and we are cheering each other on."

Hearing Du Yongxiao say this, Li Yingnan suddenly felt very happy for some reason.

It turns out that he is willing to treat me as a friend.

Although she thought so in her heart, she was always nervous when Du Yongxiao talked to her, for fear of saying something wrong. She was no longer the female overlord who treated human lives as worthless in Africa.

Seeing Li Yingnan like this, Du Yongxiao also found it a little funny. Judging from Li Yingnan's work experience, this little girl who had been engaged to him as a child was cruel and ruthless, and she must have killed hundreds of people. When Yan Xiong chose her, he just said that she had strong business ability and was trustworthy, and Du Yongxiao nodded in agreement.

But now Li Yingnan is as gentle as water, without even a hint of fieryness, just like an ordinary girl next door, which is quite interesting.

Du Yongxiao picked up the coffee and took a sip slowly. Just as he was about to talk to her again, the landline phone rang.

Li Yingnan hurried over to answer the phone and then handed it to Du Yongxiao.

Du Yongxiao nodded, took the phone, and smiled when he heard the voice inside: "Have you arrived yet? Sorry, I just wanted to take a stroll around Jeju Island, and I was interested when I saw this yacht, so I have to trouble you to come and accompany me!"

"Hey, Mr. Du, please don't say that! It's our honor to accompany you to visit Jeju Island! Don't worry, we know that you like quietness and don't like to be disturbed, so we are traveling in simple clothes this time. No one can recognize us, and there will be no media reporters chasing us!" The voice on the other end of the phone was that of Samsung's crown prince Li Jianxi.
