Hong Kong variety show: Hung Hing, are you contributing to society?

Everyone nodded.

Lin Yaodong then looked at Su Jianqiu: "Ah Qiu, how are things on your end? Is the orphanage doing alright lately?"

Su Jianqiu quickly replied, "That's good, Brother Dong. Two more children were sent here last week. The government's subsidies aren't enough, but the neighbors often donate money and supplies, so we can manage."

"Just tell me if you need more money," Lin Yaodong said. "These children are the future; we can't let them suffer. I'll donate another sum next month to renovate the dormitories and keep going until the new campus is completed..."

Furthermore, we must immediately hire some good teachers to teach the children to read and write. We cannot let them grow up to follow the same path we did.

"Thank you, Brother Dong," Su Jianqiu said sincerely.

During his time managing the orphanage, he developed a fondness for the children.

He was deeply moved to see how much Lin Yaodong valued the children's education.

"Ah Ren," Lin Yaodong looked at Chen Yongren again, "didn't you say you proposed to your girlfriend last time? When are you planning to get married?"

"Huh?" Chen Yongren was a little confused by the question, not expecting Lin Yaodong to ask this suddenly.

"Thank you for your concern, Brother Dong. You gave me a house, right? I plan to renovate it before getting married."

"That will have to wait until next year..." Lin Yaodong said. "Remember to tell me when you've chosen a date, and I'll throw you a big banquet."

"That's not a good idea. Dong-ge has already taken good care of me." Chen Yongren wanted to refuse.

Lin Yaodong had already given him a house and let him go back to his old job; he couldn't ask for anything more.

"You know what kind of person I am, Lin Yaodong. Putting aside everything else, I'm always good to my brothers," Lin Yaodong said with a smile.

"You quit your job as a police officer to be with me, so this little token of my appreciation is nothing. It's settled then. I'll make all the arrangements and make sure you have a grand and spectacular wedding."

"This... thank you, Brother Dong." Chen Yongren no longer declined.

He knew Lin Yaodong's temperament, and continuing the conversation would only make things more distant.

Lin Yaodong then looked at Su Jianqiu: "A-Qiu, what about you?"

"Huh? Me?" Su Jianqiu said, "I haven't decided yet..."

Unlike Chen Yongren, his girlfriend was already pregnant.

However, his girlfriend had hinted at marriage to him several times, but he always pretended not to understand and brushed her off.

His undercover identity was like a thorn stuck in his heart.

He didn't know how to tell his girlfriend, and he had no idea what the future held.

He had thought many times about being honest with his girlfriend and Lin Yaodong.

Just like Chen Yongren....

Dong Ge will definitely accept me....

Lin Yaodong said, "She's been with you for so many years, we men can't just shirk our responsibilities..."

His eyes flickered slightly, as if he could see through Su Jianqiu's thoughts.

"I think it would be better if you and Ah Ren held your wedding together, so it would be a double celebration! I'll pay for it and book the biggest restaurant in Causeway Bay so the neighborhood can all come and have a good time."

"Brother Dong..." Su Jianqiu's eyes welled up with tears.

He could feel Lin Yaodong's kindness towards him.

Sometimes he even thought that if he were really a gangster, following a boss like Lam Yiu-tung might not be so bad.

"That's the decision." Lin Yaodong made the final decision.

"Alright, you can all go back to your work." Lin Yaodong waved his hand. "A Qiu, stay here. I have something to tell you."

After everyone else left, only Lin Yaodong and Su Jianqiu remained in the office.

Lin Yaodong lit a cigar, took a deep drag, and slowly exhaled the smoke. Through the smoke, he looked at Su Jianqiu with a deep gaze.

"Ah Qiu, how long have you been following me?"

"More than two months... Dong Ge."

"Only two months...?" Lin Yaodong nodded. He wondered if it was because of his memories from his past life, but he felt like he had known Su Jianqiu for a long time.

"You've done a great job these past two months. The neighbors at the orphanage all say you're a good person."

"Of course, Brother Dong."

"I, Lin Yaodong, believe in the importance of righteousness," Lin Yaodong said.

"If you treat me well, I will treat you well in return. You have devoted yourself to the orphanage, and I will not treat you unfairly. Next month, I will give you a raise, and after the school is established, I will also give you five percent of the shares."

Su Jianqiu was stunned: "Brother Dong, this..."

"Don't refuse," Lin Yaodong interrupted him. "This is what you deserve. Also, you should give your girlfriend an explanation. A woman's youth is fleeting; don't keep her waiting too long."

Upon hearing this, Gao Jin, Xiao Fu, and Jiang Xin all gave Lin Yaodong a unified, meaningful look.

He might be thinking: No, Dong-ge, don't you know how many women are around you?

Do you have the right to say that?

Su Jianqiu lowered her head: "I understand, Brother Dong."

"Go ahead," Lin Yaodong waved his hand.

Su Jianqiu left the office with mixed feelings.

The better Lin Yaodong treated him, the more guilty he felt.

He was an undercover agent, sent to gather evidence of Lin Yaodong's crimes.

But now, Lin Yaodong treats him like a brother, the neighbors treat him like a good person, and the children treat him like family.

What should he do?

.....

night.

Chai Wan Beach.

Su Jianqiu sat on a rock by the sea, holding a can of beer, staring blankly at the dark sea in the distance.

The sea breeze, carrying a salty, fishy smell, swept over me, and the waves crashed against the rocks with a loud, mournful sound. In the distance, the lights of Hong Kong Island were reflected on the sea, like a handful of shattered diamonds.

"Ah Qiu, what happened during the day?"

Ma Haotian and Zhang Ziwei got out of the car, jumped over rocks, and walked to the seaside, where they saw Su Jianqiu sitting on a rock by the sea, drinking wine with a bitter expression on his face.

"Brother Tian! Awei!" Su Jianqiu looked up and forced a smile.

Ma Haotian and Zhang Ziwei sat down next to him.

Zhang Ziwei took a few cans of beer out of the plastic bag and handed them to them.

"Thanks for what happened during the day." Ma Haotian opened a beer, took a sip, and said, "If it weren't for your cooperation, we might have been in a very awkward situation."

"Of course," Su Jianqiu said. "I'm an undercover agent, so I have to cooperate when necessary."

The three remained silent for a while, with only the sounds of waves and sea breeze echoing in their ears.

"Ah Qiu," Ma Haotian looked at Su Jianqiu, "answer one question for me!"

Instead of answering, Su Jianqiu said, "Answer one question for me!"

When Ma Haotian saw that Su Jianqiu's eyes were bloodshot, his heart skipped a beat. Something must have happened. Could it be that Su Jianqiu had been exposed?

"What is it? Tell me!"

"If I return to the police force, will I receive a commendation?"

"Definitely! After all, you're an undercover agent; the higher-ups will appreciate your contribution!"

"Is that so?" Su Jianqiu let out a mocking laugh. "Are you sure?"

Ma Haotian frowned: "What's wrong with you? Why are you asking that?"

Su Jianqiu tilted his head back and took a swig of his drink, his tone calm yet seemingly suppressed: "Chen Yongren, the guy who joined Lin Yaodong's men with me, you guys still remember him, right?"

Ma Haotian and Zhang Ziwei both said in unison, "We remember."

They had thoroughly investigated the people around Lin Yaodong.

Chen Yongren, a former undercover police officer, is Ni Kun's illegitimate son.

He returned to the police force mid-month, and then resigned a few days later...

Su Jianqiu said, "I know... Chen Yongren was an undercover agent... He returned to the police force some time ago, but because he had been an undercover agent, he was ostracized and resigned..."

"What I want to ask is," Su Jianqiu stared at Ma Haotian, a hint of hostility creeping into her eyes, "what will my treatment be like when I return to the police force!"

Su Jianqiu stared at Ma Haotian, hoping to get an answer from him.

He was recommended by Ma Haotian to go undercover. At the time, it was agreed that the undercover agent would be promoted quickly upon returning.

But now we realize that's not the case at all!

Now he's absolutely certain that this is a complete trap!

He just wanted Ma Haotian to say it, so that he could hear it with his own ears.
