All the heavens are bound to the palace intrigue system

"Hua Niu, come here! Let me introduce you. This is my younger brother, Pu Zai. He's very capable. We were able to save the goods today thanks to his quick thinking."

In the private room on the second floor, Ah Kang proudly put his arm around Yu Li's shoulder and introduced the place to Hua Niu.

"Brother Hua Niu," Yu Li greeted him respectfully.

No matter how much he despised these harmful peddlers, he knew that these people cared a lot about their reputation, and if they didn't put on a good show, there would definitely be trouble later.

"I'll take down your drug den sooner or later!" Yu Li secretly resolved in his heart.

He wasn't exactly a saint, but he still had some basic humanity. Having personally handled the shipment tonight and even witnessed several drug addicts firsthand, he was even more grateful for his brilliant move of becoming an informant.

"Pu-zai..." Hua-niu scrutinized Yu-li with a critical gaze, "What's your relationship with my cousin Qiu-di?"

"It was just a hero saving a damsel in distress," Yu Li said honestly. "I couldn't stand by and watch Niu Za take her away. I only met her tonight."

"You dare offend Niu Za for a pretty girl?" Hua Niu said with a smirk. "That guy's petty; he'll definitely retaliate. Aren't you afraid of dying?"

"To die beneath the peony blossoms is to die a romantic death," Yu Li laughed.

"Haha!" Hua Niu pointed at Yu Li and laughed loudly, "A Kang, you little brother are quite interesting, you have guts! No wonder you dared to go head-to-head with the living Yama Ma Jun."

"But if you really want to date my cousin, you'd better be serious and not treat her like a little delinquent!" Hua Niu suddenly revealed a fierce look. "If I find out you've bullied her, I'll chop you up and feed you to the fish! Even if Ah Kang pleads for you, it won't do any good!"

Do you think I'm easily scared? You'd better live to see that time first!

Yu Li thought with disdain that these peddlers deserved to die and that he would make them pay with their lives sooner or later.

However, he remained outwardly calm and smiled, saying, "Understood, Brother Flower Cow."

"Hmm, where's the goods? Where are they hidden?" Hua Niu's expression softened slightly.

Yu Li immediately unbuttoned his pants and took out a package from a specially sewn-in lining in his underwear.

The package was deliberately flattened and placed next to the underwear. In addition, Yu Li was wearing loose pants, so unless you touch it, you really can't tell.

Before coming here, Yu Li had asked his younger sister, Yu Qian, to sew this interlayer for a fee of ten yuan.

"Wow, that's impressive, Puzi! You actually used that method?" Ah Kang exclaimed in amazement, and the others also clicked their tongues in wonder.

"There are many pickpockets on the streets, and I was worried about being robbed, so I specifically asked my family to make my underwear like this to hide money. I didn't expect it to come in handy today," Yu Li explained, which added some justification to his actions.

"It's all thanks to Brother Kang's cooperation before, otherwise if that cop had been more careful, I'm afraid I would have been in big trouble tonight."

"Haha, you took the risk, so you deserve credit for today!" Ah Kang was very happy. He had thought tonight was the end of them; even if the people escaped, the goods would likely be lost. Unexpectedly, both the people and the goods were safe.

"Pu Zai, you really have the composure of a general! You weren't nervous at all in front of the cops!" Ah Kang sincerely praised. "If it were someone timid, even the slightest bit of nervousness would give them away. You know, those cops will immediately assume you're hiding something if they see you're nervous!"

"Actually, I'm just putting on a brave face. At worst, I'll go to a prison. I believe the gang won't treat me unfairly," Yu Li said with an air of righteous indignation.

"That's right! Even if you get caught tonight, the gang won't forget you!" Ah Kang said immediately, secretly laughing to himself that he was indeed a naive fool. Given the selfishness and cold-bloodedness of the three Vietnamese brothers, they wouldn't care whether you lived or died. They might even send someone to kill you out of fear that you would betray the gang.

"Alright, let's make the deal," said Flower Cow.

Ten minutes later, Yu Li and A Kang walked out of the bar.

The autumn night was slightly cool, and the two of them each lit a cigarette in the night breeze.

"I'll ask Tony to give you credit for this. Remember not to turn off your phone, wait for my call." Kang patted Yu Li on the shoulder. "If everything goes smoothly, you'll be added to the roster this time."

Yu Li had been waiting for these words, and his spirits immediately lifted. He assured them, "Thank you, Brother Kang. I will definitely work hard for you from now on!"

"Yeah, I'm rooting for you! I'm off!" Brother Kang laughed and turned to leave.

Yu Li watched him walk away, and as he turned around, he saw a pretty figure leaning against a streetlamp, smiling at him.

The woman under the lights had a slender figure, her hair swaying gently in the wind, and she was also smoking a cigarette, exuding an indescribable charm.

Yu Li smiled and walked over: "Beautiful lady, were you waiting for me?"

"Handsome, that's right." Qiu Di's smile was captivating, making her look even more like a little fox. "How about it, aren't you touched?"

"I was deeply moved." Yu Li covered his chest with one hand, "I wish I could repay him with my own body."

"Pfft!" Qiu Di laughed. "If you want to sleep with me, just say so. Why say you'll repay me with your body?"

Yu Li walked up to her and stopped, smiling as he said, "I'm not a lustful lecher."

"Aren't you one?" Qiu Di deliberately looked him up and down with a suspicious gaze. "You've taken advantage of me quite a bit before."

"Who says taking advantage makes someone a pervert?" Yu Li said. "I just want to experience firsthand what it feels like to hold the woman I fell in love with at first sight in my arms."

Qiu Di seemed to want to laugh, but her face turned slightly red: "So, how do you feel?"

"I was too nervous at the time, I forgot what it felt like." Yu Li opened his arms, "Could you let me experience it again?"

Qiu Di finally couldn't help but laugh. She covered her mouth and giggled for a while: "You're so good at making women happy, you must have had your share of girls before, right?"

Yu Li sighed and said, "I dare not say, for fear you will laugh at me."

Qiu Di glared at Yu Li: "What? Are there so many that you can't count them all?"

"Quite the opposite." Yu Li shook his head. "In all my life, you're the first girl I've ever hugged. The last time I touched a girl was in my mother's dessert shop, when I touched the hand of a girl next door."

Qiu Di's eyes seemed to brighten slightly: "I don't believe it. You're not trying to tell me you're still a virgin, are you?"

"No, that's not it." Yu Li shook his head, his right hand clenching and waving a few times. "I drive a manual transmission, I don't need to ask anyone for help."

"Haha..." Qiu Di laughed again, her face flushed red. She couldn't help but lightly punch Yu Li's chest. "I even called you Brother Li, but you're just a little brother, a little brother who's never had sex before, haha!"

"I knew you'd laugh at me." Yu Li sighed again. "What a pity, what a pity, you won't be able to see me again soon."

Qiu Di was taken aback, her expression immediately turning serious: "Why do you say that?"

"The fortune teller said that if I don't lose my virginity before my twentieth birthday, I'll suffer a bloody disaster." Yu Li looked at her earnestly, "Qiu Di, if something happens to me, will you be sad?"

Qiu Di's eyes widened, and she bit her lip to suppress a laugh: "I'll be sad, so to avoid being sad, I've decided to take you to Portland Street. It's on me!"

Yu Li shook his head and sighed, "It's no use. If any woman would do, why would I have remained chaste for twenty years? I have so many skills, but I have no way to use them. It's truly a case of unfulfilled potential."

Qiu Di continued to suppress her laughter: "So, you have requirements for women?"

"Of course." Yu Li nodded: "The fortune teller said that this woman's name must have two characters, and the first character must be the third season."

Qiu Di bit her lip, her face flushed as she glared at him: "Then does the second character have to have the 'earth' radical?"

"So you can tell fortunes, Qiu Di?" Yu Li looked at her in surprise, then clasped his hands in a fist salute: "My apologies, Master Qiu! Today is my twentieth birthday, and I'll have a bloody disaster after midnight. Master Qiu, what should I do?"

"You bastard, you still say you don't want to sleep with me?" Qiu Di couldn't hold back any longer and swung her fist at Yu Li.

"Heroine, spare my life!" Yu Li feigned panic and dodged.

The two laughed and joked as they disappeared around the corner.
