Hong Kong Film: Jimmy? Please call me Councillor Li

Chapter 320 Is this all I'm worth?
Nine-Dragon, impeccably dressed in a suit and exuding an air of authority, stepped out from the crowd.

Ma Jiaohong, Xiao Meng, and Huoshan stared blankly at the drastically changed Nine-Tattooed Dragon, at a loss for words.

Volcano clenched his fists, looked at Li Jiayuan, then at Nine-Dragon, his fists clenched, shock and jealousy washing over him. So it was Nine-Dragon!
Nine-Dragon has actually followed Li Jiayuan!!!

Why should a cripple who spent eight years in jail be able to do better than him after he gets out?
When Teacher Xiaomeng saw the Nine-Dragon, she couldn't help but cry because she knew she was finally safe.

Nine-Dragon slowly walked towards Ma Jiaohong, and under Ma Jiaohong's joyful and excited gaze, he slapped her again.

Contrary to Ma Jiaohong's expectations of being rescued, Jiuwenlong did not take her away; instead, he beat her.

Nine-Dragon put a lot of force into that slap, which surprised everyone and left them stunned.

"How old are you? Playing with this kind of thing! Don't you know that doing this can kill people!"

Nine-Dragon reprimanded Ma Jiaohong without any politeness. He was not that sycophantic prince. Ma Jiaohong had made a mistake, and that was that. If he hadn't asked Brother Yuan for help this time...

Who knows what kind of trouble will ensue?

Ma Jiaohong stared at Jiuwenlong in shock, her eyes instantly turning red. She hadn't expected Jiuwenlong to hit her.

"You hit me!"

"Who am I doing this for? I'm doing it for you."

"You're doing this for yourself!!"

"You're the one who wants to show off, you're the one who wants to be in the limelight. I've said it before, I don't want to be involved in this anymore, I want to live a normal life. Have you ever considered my feelings?"

“You didn’t consider my feelings, nor did you consider Xiaolong’s feelings. From today onwards, I will take Xiaolong with me and take care of him myself. You and your husband go back to your island and don’t bother my life anymore.”

Having her deepest thoughts exposed by Nine-Dragon, Ma Jiaohong tried to explain herself with tears in her eyes.

"Is it wrong for me to stand up again? Do you want to be a waiter for the rest of your life? You have no ambition."

At this point, Lu Ya had something to say.

"Although this is your business and I shouldn't interfere, I have something to say: there is no distinction between high and low professions. What's wrong with being a waiter? You earn your money honestly with your own hands and feet."

Isn't that more reassuring than making dirty money selling contraband? Besides, I've already decided to send Ah Long to school as an administrator. Aren't upright figures in the education sector more promising than lowlife thugs like you?"

There are different levels of gangsters, and real gangsters who are capable wouldn't touch contraband.

Those who do these kinds of businesses are all desperate people. They can't make money by running a proper business, so they have to resort to shady methods to make money quickly.

Both being gangsters, why is Ni Yongxiao so determined to whitewash the Ni family's image? Isn't it because he wants to escape this group after getting rich?

Ni Yongxiao was clever, but unfortunately he made a terrible mistake. If he hadn't died, he might have actually become a legislator.

Whether in Hong Kong or Taiwan, there is an unwritten rule: once elected as a legislator, past misdeeds will be forgiven.

It all depends on whether you have the ability.

This is why so many people try every means to run for office; it's a well-known shortcut to whitewash one's image and achieve instant success.

However, it is also an extremely difficult path.

Li Jiayuan's words made Ma Jiaohong and Huoshan wish they could disappear into the ground. They seemed glamorous, but in reality, they were nothing more than pathetic creatures with no ability or skill.

If someone is truly capable, why would they choose this path?

Following Li Jiayuan's Nine-Dragoned Buddy, he was certainly more successful than them; that was the Jiayuan Group, a wealthy business circle in Hong Kong.

"Ma Jiaohong, this is the last time I'll help you. I hope you'll never appear in front of me again."

After Jiuwenlong finished speaking, he retreated behind Li Jiayuan.

Li Jiayuan glanced at his watch, then looked at the volcano.

"Your name is Volcano, right?"

"Yes, yes, I'm so sorry, Brother Yuan, for making you come all this way. I used to be good brothers with Brother Long. Please forgive me this time."

Face or life? Volcano decisively chose the latter. Their boss, Chen Pi, was the best example. He was so obsessed with saving face that he suffered for it, and now the grass on his grave is two meters high. He didn't know why Nine-Dragon, who had just been released, had joined the Jiayuan Group so quickly. If he had known that Nine-Dragon had such abilities, he would have treated Nine-Dragon like a revered figure at the tea restaurant that day.

How could they possibly be sarcastic or cynical?

"Well, it's really a small matter. Everyone has their own grievances and debts. Go find whoever took your goods. Nine-Dragon is one of my men. Also, you arrested that female teacher too. Shouldn't you give her some compensation?"

"Yes, yes, yes, it's my duty. I'll give my sister-in-law 100,000 yuan as compensation for her emotional distress."

"Hmm~"

"Oh no no no, three hundred thousand, three hundred thousand, I misspoke."

Li Jiayuan then smiled and patted Huoshan on the shoulder.

“That’s right. I thought you meant that I was worth 100,000 yuan for just one trip. I spend more than that much in one meal.”

The volcano's laughter was more painful than its tears.

You don't lack it, but I do!
Although they sell goods for tens of millions, in reality, they only receive a few million from each batch. After various bribes, how much do they actually actually get?

Three hundred thousand is a lot of money!

For just this one thing, I lost 300,000 yuan, damn it.

It's all because of that woman, Ma Jiaohong.

He didn't dare to blame Li Jiayuan, so he could only pick on the weak. But then again, Ma Jiaohong was Jiu Wenlong's ex-lover. The two of them had supposedly broken up, but who knew if they would rekindle their romance?

So he didn't dare to go too far. He was content as long as he could get the money or the goods back. No, there was still 300,000 left.

"Alright, now it's your turn."

Li Jiayuan looked at Xiao Meng beside him. Since he was already there, he might as well help Jiuwenlong take care of this as well.

Teacher Xiaomeng pointed to herself with a blank expression.

"I"

"Yes, it's you."

"I heard you're Ah Long's girlfriend."

Xiao Meng's cracked face flushed instantly. She neither denied nor admitted it, but judging from the way they looked, it was unlikely that there was nothing between them.

Li Jiayuan's next words were a wake-up call for her.

“I’ve investigated you. You’re an elementary school teacher, but in real life you’re a delinquent. Ah Long is destined for great things, and I don’t want him to be surrounded by such shady and disreputable people.”

So I'm giving you two choices. First, leave his life, and I'll find you a better job with a higher salary.

Secondly, you should consciously clean up your social relationships.

"Choose."

Nine-Dragon wanted to interject, but he and Xiao Meng actually had no relationship whatsoever, so wasn't this a bit...
"I will change."

Xiao Meng lowered his head and whispered, feeling humiliated.

Actually, after hearing Jiuwenlong tell her story at the hospital last time, she already didn't want to associate with those delinquent girls anymore, and this experience only compounded that.

She knows what to do without anyone telling her.

Li Jiayuan smiled.

"Alright, let's observe for now."

[You hired Nine-Dragon to work at the school to help him solve his problems, change his death fate, complete the mission, and receive your reward.]
