Chapter 330 A Different Kind of Gangster Life

Eight Treasures Restaurant in Causeway Bay.

Surrounded by a crowd, Chan Ho-nam drank one glass of wine after another offered by his underlings.

Today's Chan Ho-nam is no longer the Ah-nam who only ate and broke bowls.

Now, he no longer has Shanji, Da Tian Er, or Chao Pi around him; instead, he has a group of completely new faces.

Since Chao Pi went to work at Jiayuan Logistics and Da Tian Er went to work as an artist at Jiayuan Media, Chen Haonan has gradually had less contact with them.

It wasn't that Tai Tin Yee and the others didn't want to be brothers with Chan Ho Nam anymore; it was that Chan Ho Nam himself couldn't get over this mental hurdle, believing that the whole world had betrayed him.

He deliberately distanced himself from Da Tian Er and Chao Pi. After being met with indifference two or three times, the two gradually lost patience and simply broke off contact.

Chen Haonan didn't know why things had turned out this way. He just wanted to do well in the gang and become the boss, but gradually fewer and fewer brothers were around him, until finally he had none left.

If Lee Ka-yuen knew Chan Ho-nam's current situation, he would probably sigh and say that the timing was wrong. In a normal Young and Dangerous storyline, Chan Ho-nam would have matured completely after experiencing the deaths of Brother B and Little Stutterer.

He will truly grow up and then he will be able to understand these things, instead of being trapped in the same place as he is now, still dreaming of being the eldest brother.

Because of these events, Chan Ho-nam's personality changed. He became sensitive and suspicious, unwilling to trust anyone, not even the brothers sitting with him now.

Chan Ho-nam is now the new leader of Causeway Bay, and Brother B has the idea of ​​stepping down and no longer participating in the conflicts of the underworld.

He also intended to cultivate his own successor, someone who would allow him to retire in peace. Among his many underlings, he favored Chen Haonan the most, even though Chen Haonan had messed things up before.

However, Brother B still valued Chan Ho-nam's abilities and personally vouched for him in front of Chiang Tin-sang, which allowed Chan Ho-nam to leave Yuen Long and start working for the triad again.

Chan Ho-nam was a capable member of the gang, and with Brother B's full support, he quickly rose to prominence among the underlings.

He has regained his original team, which is the group he has now. Today can be considered a celebration of Chan Ho-nam's rise to power. Brother B announced that he will officially step down from the spotlight and begin to hand over the public affairs to Ho-nam little by little.

This matter has already been discussed with Chiang Tin-sang. As long as Ho-nam performs well, he will be able to become a full-fledged employee in the future.

Such a big event definitely deserves a celebration.

"Hey, Brother Nan, look! It's Da Tian Er!!!"

"Wow, this outfit looks so cool, and he's even paired with my favorite female celebrity."

The group was eating and watching TV when suddenly the underlings screamed. Chan Ho-nam looked at the TV with a dark expression.

A movie was playing on TV, and Da Tian Er, who had once sat at the same table with him, was now playing a small-time hoodlum.

Chan Ho-nam's henchmen began discussing Tai Tin Yee's exploits.

After all, they all used to hang out in Causeway Bay, so of course they all knew each other, and everyone sighed with emotion.

"Da Tin Yee used to hang out in Causeway Bay, he was with Brother Nam, and he's become a big star now. How much do you think he can make from making a movie?"

"This Liang Xiaotang is practically playing himself. Look at his tattoos, he doesn't even need to apply them, they're already there."

"Haha, after all, he's with Brother Yuan, so he has a brighter future than us gangsters."

What was said in jest was taken to heart by the listener. Chen Haonan, who was standing to the side, felt extremely uncomfortable. For Chen Haonan now, the name Li Jiayuan had almost become a nightmare in his heart.

"Cut it."

Chen Haonan suddenly lost his temper, and his underlings looked at each other in surprise, clearly not expecting their boss to suddenly get angry. The laughter and harmonious atmosphere vanished.

Everyone quieted down and switched to the next TV channel.

It was from TVB, but coincidentally, an interview with Lee Ka-yuen was being broadcast on TV.

Chen Haonan's henchmen were amazed when they saw the gentle and handsome face on TV, especially when they saw the interview title.

Wow, Yuan Ge is a legislator now!!!

"Didn't he become one last year?" Everyone was excited and admiring of the person on TV, and no one noticed that Chen Haonan's face was so dark that he was about to explode.

To these gangsters, Li Jiayuan is now more than just a senior.

He has now become an idol in the hearts of countless gangsters, and there is a saying circulating in the gangster community.

You're so great, why don't you go be Li Jiayuan?

The gist of it is: no matter how arrogant you are, can you be more powerful than Li Jiayuan?

"Idiot, last year's one was a district councilor, this one is a legislator, how can they be the same?"

"And what do legislators do?"

"What kind of question is that? If I knew the answer, would I still be here?"

"Too."

Chan Ho-nam's eyes were vacant, and he felt a complex mix of emotions. Even if he really replaced Brother B as the boss, so what?

He's still a gangster, and he'll never be as good as Li Jiayuan.

Not to mention him, even Mr. Jiang would call him Brother Yuan. Last time, Brother B offended some rich people in Causeway Bay and couldn't find a way to resolve the issue. With just one word from Li Jiayuan, they obediently let Brother B go.

They seem to be from two different worlds forever. Is his effort really meaningful?

Looking at his henchmen, who were adorned with dragons and phoenixes, Chan Ho-nam felt a sudden emptiness welling up inside him.

"Hey, boss, where are you going?"

"I'm leaving, Bao. Could you tell Brother B for me while you're at it?"

"Walk?"

A hotel with backbone

All the big brothers of Wo Luen Shing have gathered together today.

There are Ah Le, Big D, Chui Ji, Fei Hua, and Gao Lao.
"Come on, come on, let's eat."

Brother D, here, have this first bite of fish.

"Haha, why are you being so polite?"

"Where did you come from? We'll all have to rely on you, Brother D, from now on."

Lin Huaiyue sat alone at the corner of the table, drinking alone in silence, the veins on his hand gripping the wine glass bulging.

I am clearly the person in charge of Wo Luen Shing, yet all these people have gone to curry favor with Big D.

What's that? They didn't even take him seriously.

But he has no power to change the current situation.
The world of gangsters is also very realistic. If you have no money and the work you do is dangerous, who will follow you?

Lin Huai Le is in this situation now. After he became the person in charge, he had more people under his command, and everything was originally developing in a good direction.

But no matter how much he planned, he never expected that this guy, Big D, would actually get involved with the Jiayuan Group.

He abandoned all his shady business ventures and, relying on the resources of the Jiayuan Group, started a legitimate business, where he thrived.

More and more brothers joined him, and gradually, even he, as the leader, couldn't overshadow Big D. Through Li Jiayuan's connections, Big D not only gathered a large number of followers.

Many brothers in the gang were trying to curry favor with him. People always strive for advancement; given better options, who would want to stoop to such a low level?
