Korean TV series: King of Peninsula 1997

Chapter 179 Transformation and Surrender
Kinmen Entertainment stabilized in a short period of time. Li You estimated that Li Zhongjiu would not be honest for long, as he was the kind of person who only remembered to eat and not to be beaten.

As a result, in the next few days, Shi Dongchu's attitude was surprisingly good.

He had already figured out that the young man at the funeral that day was found by Shi Dongchu, and it was probably just the first step of Shi Dongchu's plan.

It seemed that Shi Dongchu's plan was completely disrupted by Li Zhongjiu, and he gave up on continuing.

In the following days, Li You was invited by Ding Qing to have a long-awaited dinner together, which was held at Li Zicheng's home.

It is worth mentioning that after Li You revealed Qian Xinyu's identity in the chess academy last time, Li Zicheng moved.

The dinner location is Li Zicheng's house, but the address is no longer the same as before.

The night was filled with tiny starlight, and the headlights of Li You's car broke the silence. The wheels rolled through the silent streets towards Li Zicheng's new home.

Since the incident at the chess academy, Li Zicheng has been undergoing a quiet transformation, and moving seems to symbolize a new beginning.

The car shuttled through the urban forest of high-rise buildings, like a small boat in a river of metal and concrete. Finally, it stopped in front of a luxurious villa in a quiet neighborhood.

He got out of the car and stopped, and found that the trees in the garden in front of the door were carefully trimmed and looked full of vitality. The lights beside the path emitted a soft yellow light, casting mottled shadows and bringing a sense of warmth.

Li You thought this was good news. Li Zicheng seemed to have finally begun to enjoy the fruits of his own hard work. This was a remarkable change in mentality.

Li You, dressed in a neat suit and holding an exquisite gift box, rang the doorbell with a sincere smile.

The ding-dong sound of the doorbell echoed in the quiet night. Li You looked through the iron railings and fixed his gaze on Ding Qing's brisk figure today.

Ding Qing's familiar figure trotted and waved, "Here I come!"

"Oh," Ding Qing took the gift from his hand, his voice full of joy, "I have another important news to tell you today!"

Looking at Ding Qing's grin, Li You felt that it should not be a bad thing.

The two walked side by side on the path leading to the villa. The surrounding scenery was quiet and peaceful, with only the occasional sound of birds singing.

Li You took the initiative to mention Shi Wu's situation. Ding Qing stopped and told him seriously, "I'll tell you outside. Don't talk about work again after you go in."

Li You was slightly stunned, realizing that Ding Qing attached great importance to this so-called important news. A little curiosity arose in his heart, and he nodded to show his understanding.

His eyebrows slightly raised, with a barely perceptible curiosity in his voice: "What kind of good news can make you behave like this?"

Ding Qing chuckled twice and did not directly answer Li You's question. Instead, he changed his words.

"You don't understand this, do you?" Ding Qing's figure seemed a little vague under the dim light of the courtyard. He blinked and kept the secret, "Let's talk about Shi Wu first. This guy is really amazing. He was able to lurk among us for so long."

There was a hint of surprise and fear in Ding Qing's voice. He said in amazement, "You may not know that by tracking Shi Wu, we also found some of his subordinates, who were also disguised as police officers."

He waved his hand pretending to be relaxed. "Besides, this guy is still bringing in more people. Kinmen Trade is almost becoming a police lair. Now I have a group of policemen working for me."

"Luckily you reminded me," Ding Qing patted Li You on the shoulder, "otherwise I would have pissed myself if I had opened my eyes and seen the police standing by my bed."

"Brother," Ding Qing sighed, "I don't know how many favors I owe you."

"You also brought me a partner from Japan."

He paused, "I don't have any big ambitions in the first place. Zicheng was the one who pulled me along most of the time. Now that Zicheng has settled down, I just want to do my job well. After all, I have made a name for myself now."

Ding Qing stared at the door of the villa's living room. "I know you are competing with Shi Dongchu and Li Zhongjiu right now. If you can use me, let me know."

Li You smiled and nodded, patting his shoulder, "Okay."

Seeing that Li You was about to walk inside, Ding Qing quickly pulled him back and said, "Don't go. I haven't finished talking yet."

Li You cast a strange look at him, "Don't we usually end the conversation after we get emotional?"

Ding Qing coughed awkwardly, and looking at Li You's playful eyes, he stroked his long hair and said, "I just want you to give me some advice. Shi Wu is sending a bunch of policemen to Kinmen Trade, and we are not going to do anything?"

In fact, according to Ding Qing's idea, he would shoot all these policemen to death one by one, and then sink them into the sea with cement.

However, what Li You said before influenced his thinking. Ding Qing always felt that being an undercover agent was not that simple.

"I will take action in the next period of time," Li You smiled calmly, "take action against the superior who sent him here, and then I will inform you. Sink them all."

Ding Qing's eyes were filled with surprise. "I didn't expect there would be a surprise tonight. You even figured out his boss."

He stroked his chin, making many small movements, "But it's true, you have connections with many people above you now, and your power is much greater than that of the police chief. What about the prosecutor above him?"

"Don't worry," Li You said with cold eyes, "No one can escape."

"With you here," Ding Qing pretended to be greasy and leaned towards Li You, "Is this what it feels like to be able to rely on someone?"

"Go away," Li You pushed him away.

Ding Qing laughed and opened the door of the villa's living room, "Welcome to our Zicheng's new home!"

The lights in the house are like drizzles, sprinkling on every inch of space. The light yellow light is not dim, and makes the whole space look warm and comfortable.

Li Zicheng's wife, Han Zhijing, was wearing loose home clothes, leaning against the crimson pillows on the sofa, her eyes focused on the flickering TV screen in front of her, watching the TV program. Li Zicheng himself stood at the kitchen door, slightly poking his head out, looking across the living room, and greeting Li You.

If Li You saw it correctly, he was still wearing an apron and holding a spatula in his hand. The aroma of food wafted from the kitchen and intertwined with the sound of the TV in the living room.

Han Zhijing stood up and greeted Li You. Ding Qing sat down on the sofa in the living room and leisurely flipped through an old magazine. "Hurry up and sit down. You will be able to taste the cooking skills of chef Li Zicheng in a while."

Soon the food was ready, and Li Zicheng smiled and said, "Try these home-cooked dishes, they all have the traditional flavors."

There was a hint of relief in his words, as if all the misfortunes had disappeared with this dinner.

Ding Qing put his arm around Li You's shoulders and said, "Did you see the smile on Zicheng's face? You wouldn't believe it if I told you, but he has smiled so many times recently."

Above the dining table, the aroma of dishes rose in the air. Several people ate and chatted, and their laughter echoed in the air, until Ding Qing slapped the table with his palm forcefully, attracting everyone's attention.

"Now let Zicheng announce the good news."

Li You looked over and watched Ding Qing, who was eager to perform, "You don't know either, right?"

There was a hint of doubt in Li You's eyes. Looking at Ding Qing's eager look, he couldn't help but wonder whether the person who announced the news also had no idea about what was about to happen.

Ding Qing was being mysterious. He himself didn't know what the good news was. He grinned and said, "You can tell by the smile on Zicheng's face that this must be good news. If you know, get excited first."

Ding Qing has always been a person who maximizes the emotional value of his friends.

The atmosphere suddenly turned quiet, all eyes were focused on Li Zicheng, and an indescribable light flickered in Li Zicheng's eyes.

He turned his head to look at Han Zhijing, and a barely perceptible smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Zhijing is pregnant."

Li Zicheng looked around at the people at the table and said in a low, joyful voice, "I'm going to be a father."

No wonder Li Zicheng cooked.
Li You was indeed surprised because the time did not match that of Yingsaku, but pregnancy was not something that could be strictly followed according to the script.

I have done so many things that have affected the progress. Who knows, one day, when Li Zicheng is happy, Han Zhijing will get pregnant.

"Congratulations," Li You nodded with a smile, "It's really good news."

Ding Qing was silent for a long time, then slapped Li Zicheng on the shoulder, "You are not nice enough. You didn't tell me right away, and you beat around the bush with me."

He kept mumbling, "I was wondering why you've been laughing so much lately, so it turns out that..."

After the dinner, Han Zhijing went to rest. The three of them took a nap on the terrace. The neon lights of the city were flashing in the distance, and the starry sky was clearly visible nearby.

They were silent, enjoying this rare tranquility.

"I'll give you a congratulatory gift later," Li You smiled, "I still want to congratulate you again. You're going to be a father."

Li Zicheng was a little depressed at this time. "I don't know whether it is good to have a child at this time, but when I heard the news, I was really..."

His emotions were complicated, including the joy of becoming a father for the first time, but also worries about the unknown future.

"Happy," Ding Qing stretched, stood up and looked at Li Zicheng beside him, "Don't think about anything else about this kind of thing, just be happy."

"Old Ding is right," Li You reached out and patted him, "Just be happy at times like this."

The phone rang in the living room. Ding Qing felt his pocket and cursed, "It's really mine."

Looking at Ding Qing who walked in to answer the phone, Li Zicheng said, "Zhi Jing is pregnant. I don't want to live that kind of life anymore."

Li You narrowed his eyes slightly, feeling the night breeze. This was the first time that Li Zicheng spoke out his true feelings.

Li Zicheng's eyes were full of determination. "I will help you, President Nim, to get rid of Section Chief Jiang and the others."

There was a hint of confusion in his eyes, but more of it was deep thought. From this moment on, he really began to think seriously about how to rely on himself to have a stable life.

Section Chief Jiang, his promises are bullshit and cannot be trusted.

"It's easy," Li You waved his hand. "Chief Jiang and the people behind him are not difficult to deal with. It just takes time."

He looked at Li Zicheng and said, "During this period of time, you should follow Lao Ding to run Kinmen Trade. What I value is your ability and your small ambition that does not match your ability."

If Li Zhongjiu is a man with great ambitions but weak abilities, then Li Zicheng is a man with small ambitions but strong abilities. Such people must of course be used, and they should be used well.

Hearing Li You's words, Li Zicheng breathed a sigh of relief. "Old Ding doesn't really want to fight for power. He wouldn't have come here if I hadn't pushed him."

Li You nodded and pondered for a moment, "How is Qian Xinyu doing?"

Li Zicheng reached out and swatted away the flying insects attracted by the light. "She was very honest. She didn't say anything when I went there. She just sat there."

Li You nodded. "I have all the dirty details of her parents in my hands, so I don't dare to act rashly."

He naturally didn't think that a "righteous partner" like Qian Xinyu would surrender just because of what he said before.

I guess she is trying every possible way to protect her parents, and her brief cooperation is only because she hasn't found a way yet.
