The game's heroine has come true? The aloof school beauty is in tears.

"Lu Yuan, the Five Lakes Gang's rule is 'no more than three times,' you've lied to me for the third time."

"That's exactly three times, not more than three."

"These are your rules, but the rules of the Five Lakes Gang cannot be equal to three."

"It's okay, I'll change this stupid rule after I kill your dad."

Lu Yuan wasn't joking.

I've never heard of a family's affairs not exceeding three times, let alone more than three.

What ridiculous rules.

Huang Zhiyu wasn't joking; she had said she would wait until Lu Yuan lied to her for the third time.

Just kill him.

"I will definitely kill you."

"Now is the best opportunity."

"I can't kill you now."

Huang Zhiyu took half a step back, seemingly not yet completely consumed by anger and reason.

She knew that in this cramped space, if she faced Lu Yuan, she would only get a spanking.

So she turned around and left.

A person's figure disappeared into the long night.

She didn't ask questions like "Why did you do this to me?"

He appeared as calm as a still lake, but left behind a kill order with a blank expression.

Lu Yuan didn't try to stop him.

He realized this scenario would occur the moment he abandoned Plan B.

Whether we never cross paths again, whether we shoot him in the back, or whether we actually send a tank to bombard him, it doesn't matter.

He accepted it all.

...

Ximending.

Ah Zhen and Ah Qiang sat at a roadside stall enjoying a delicious meal.

"Ah Qiang, I don't want to study anymore, I want to go to work."

"Don't think like that. The Crown Prince treats me very well. I can make a lot of money."

Now that his involvement in organized crime was known, Ah-Qiang no longer needed to hide it.

He said, "The Crown Prince went to university. I asked him if education was important, and he told me it was very important! Especially for bad guys like us in the underworld!"

"How so?"

"The prince said that a mad scientist sounds so evil that he could destroy the world, but if it were a mad undergraduate, the worst thing he could do would be to sneak into an internet cafe."

"The Crown Prince sounds a bit unreliable."

"Ah Zhen, you mustn't slander the Crown Prince!"

Ah Qiangzi is all about loyalty.

Ah Zhen scratched her head, said "Oh," and then lowered her head. She didn't know how to describe this feeling.

The prince seems pretty good, but he's very different from the underworld boss I imagined.

"I'm really afraid that one day I'll hear that something happened to you. I'll go to work and we can slowly save money together."

Ah Zhen was still babbling away.

But she really doesn't understand men at all.

If Ah Zhen were to say something like "Buy me a bag" or "I want to buy you a necklace," then...

Even if Ah Qiang is incredibly thick-skinned, when he can't sleep, he'll probably still have to think about whether all his hard work is worth it.

But she just had to say those kinds of things.

What's the difference between this and feeding a donkey stimulants?

Ah Qiang is now full of ambition.

What else can a twenty-year-old have on their mind but their future and love?

The crown prince granted him a promising future and also blessed his love.

This is a huge success in the secular sense.

It even gave this young man from the lower class the courage to look directly at the city.

He had been suppressed for too long in this neon-lit city, and today he could finally look at him with pride.

Because in the near future, he will be able to move out of the house in the old neighborhood that is frequently without water.

He moved into a home that looked pretty good with his parents and partner.

That's all he has to dream of.

Who would have thought that Ah Qiang would have such a day!

The clueless, short-haired man smiled in front of the late-night food stall.

...

Ah-Qiang died with a smile on his face.

I didn't see it because it was too far away.

That's what Ah Zhen said.

I heard that he mumbled some inexplicable last words before he died.

"Dying with a smile" was a saying by Ah Zhen, and that phrase was also translated and relayed by Ah Zhen.

Ah Zhen said the following: "I will support Yu Long and die for you."

His poor pronunciation and enunciation made it difficult for others to understand him.

Only Ah-Zhen could hear it clearly, because she was the one who taught it.

Ah-Qiang died at the alley entrance where Huang Zhi-Yuan came looking for him. It was Ah-Qiang who shouted, "Your parents are here."

Lane 109, Section 2, Hankou Street.

When Lu Yuan arrived at the scene, the police had already cordoned it off.

Four of the seven suspects were arrested on the spot.

The remaining three didn't escape and were killed by A-Qiang.

Seven against one, but lost three for one.

Ah Zhen had already collapsed to the ground in tears. She tried her best to explain what had happened, but she was out of breath.

I couldn't hear it clearly.

The account was reconstructed by the surrounding vendors who were watching the commotion, so it is highly credible.

Because they knew Lu Yuan, the guy who used to sell takoyaki.

"Oh dear, seven men in black rushed out of the alley and surrounded the young man."

The young man let the girl run ahead, and went to meet her.

Seven men surrounded the young man and beat him up, then told him to call their boss.

The young man immediately knelt down and admitted defeat, then took out his phone to make a call.

The men in black seemed to think he was obedient, so they weren't too cautious. As a result, the young man threw his phone aside, got up, grabbed the knife, and started fighting back.

Two fists can't fight four hands; he was hacked to death.

Lu Yuan nodded to indicate that he understood.

The big boss is communicating with the police station.

He walked up to A-Qiang alone, squatted down, and looked at him.

"He's still laughing even after he's dead."

Lu Yuan reached out to try to smooth the corners of his mouth, but the corners of his mouth that he had just smoothed out turned up again.

"Fine, go ahead and laugh."

Nobody knows what Ah-Qiang is laughing about.

Perhaps the most beautiful thing about the poor's dream of turning their lives around is that it only exists in dreams?

Lu Yuan didn't know, but he couldn't laugh.

Because Ah Qiang did indeed call him at that time.

He happened to receive it as well.

Ah Qiang only said three sentences in total.

The first thing he said was, "Brother, the old gang leader has turned against us, I'm going to die today."

The internal strife within the Five Lakes Gang must adhere to the rules; it is shameful to go around arresting underlings like this.

If both sides do this, then the cat-and-mouse game will drag on endlessly without any peace.

The most extreme approach would be to simply block the reformers from entering the country, just like eliminating them.

Openly and honestly waging war is the bottom line.

So when Ah-Qiang saw that he was surrounded, he instantly knew that he was doomed.

This is Huang Feiyang issuing a challenge.

We announce that starting today, we will completely break ties and no longer abide by the rules of the gang.

When Lu Yuan answered the phone, he naturally knew what it meant.

Ah Qiang's second sentence was: "Prince, Ah Qiang isn't going to be the head of the turtle this time."

Lu Yuan said, "Well, say your last words. I'll do my best."

At times like these, whether Ah-Qiang-zai talks about revenge, taking care of his family, or even actually wanting an aircraft carrier, he will do anything.

Even if it's far, we have to find a way to help him.

But Ah Qiang's third sentence was: "Your Highness, Ah Qiang is not here. Be careful when you go out."

Lu Yuan sighed and silently walked towards Ah Zhen.

He squatted down and said, "Please accept my condolences. You can ask for anything you need in life. This is what A-Qiang deserves."

The eldest brother must take care of his younger brother's affairs after his death.

As I said before, whatever Ah Zhen asks for now, Lu Yuan will try his best to fulfill it.

Even the most outlandish wish, he has to find a way to fulfill.

Ah Zhen had already lost her voice, and tears streamed down her face like a burst dam, streaking across the small freckles on her cheeks.

She said, "Your Highness, I have no requests."

Lu Yuan nodded and took out his phone: "It's okay, leave me your number, I'll contact you when you've calmed down."

"I have no further requests. I only have one sentence to say."

"Go ahead and say it."

"Your Highness, is Ah Qiang able to go home now?"

Lu Yuan, who had been half-squatting down, froze.

The man, who was always full of wild talk, suddenly became flustered, aimlessly rubbing his hair with his hands on his head.

Then he abruptly turned his head away, his hand holding the phone trembling.
