Hong Kong Tycoon: Starting from Delivering Dongfeng Express

Chapter 144 Zhao Di: Stop dreaming! You're not worthy!

At dusk, at Radar Dart's home.

Today's harassment has left me exhausted, both physically and mentally, and naturally, I have no desire to look at houses. I'm just resting at home. My three daughters are chatting in their room.

The second daughter, Lai Di, was clinging to her eldest sister's arm, complaining:

"Sis, that person clearly saved us! Why won't Dad let me interact with them?!"

The older sister held Lai Di's hand: "Lai Di, he did save us! We should thank him, but Dad is worried you'll get yourself into trouble! He's a gangster!"

Lai Di pouted and said, "So what if he's a gangster? He's a really nice guy!"

The younger brother poked his younger sister's forehead:

"Tch, I know you too well. You're only after his looks, okay? You're just swooning over him because he's handsome!"

Lai Di said in a coquettish tone, "Oh, sis! I admit he's kind of handsome! Much cooler than those childish boys in our class!"

The key point is that he saved us! That's called a hero saving a damsel in distress! Isn't that how it's always written in books? It sounds so romantic!

As he spoke, Lai Di crossed his arms over his chest and became lost in the fantasy of a storybook.

"Can romance put food on the table? He's a gangster, he doesn't know where his next meal will come from!"
You've seen it yourself, they fight every day, even going out and stabbing people! It looks glamorous, but who knows, they might get stabbed to death any day! Don't be foolish!

Besides, he's not the only handsome guy out there. Isn't Mr. Ye more handsome than him? And he's so rich! If I were with him, I'd never have to worry about anything for the rest of my life, and I could live in a villa. I'd definitely be very happy!

As they talked, Dai Di also drifted into a beautiful fantasy.

"Mr. Ye is definitely a good person! But it was Brother Cheng who saved us! He looked so cool and manly protecting us!"

Seeing her two older sisters acting provocatively, the younger sister, Zhao Di, stood to the side with her hands on her hips and directly shattered their illusion:

"Stop dreaming! Go look in the mirror. Neither Mr. Ye nor Brother Cheng are good enough for you!"

This infuriated the two women, who cried out, "Ah! Zhao Di, are you looking for death?!"

As they spoke, the two sisters grabbed Zhao Di's arms on either side, pressed her down on the bed, and started slapping her buttocks.

Zhao Di quickly begged for forgiveness: "Ahhh! I know I was wrong! My two older sisters are the number one and number two most beautiful women in the world!"

After the three sisters had been playing around for a while, they all went to bed to rest.

Then the younger brother asked his older sister, "Sister, do you really like Mr. Ye?"

The older woman retorted irritably, "Nonsense! What woman wouldn't like someone as handsome and wealthy as Mr. Ye!"

Then she sighed again: "But I have no chance! He has so many beautiful women around him, whether it's Amei or that Moonlight who looked at the villa last time, they're all so pretty! I definitely can't compete with them!"

The younger sister chuckled and said, "Sis, you can be the third wife! Little Wai's dad in our class has three wives!"

Lai Di patted Zhao Di on the shoulder: "Hey, you're so young, how can you be so spineless? We women should be strong and pursue equal love, how can we be concubines!"

Zhao Di curled her lip: "I see those concubines on TV living better than us! You'd better make your move on this Brother Cheng as soon as possible, lest you end up not even being a concubine!"

Lai Di snorted twice: "You little devil, mind your own business!"

Zhao Di made a face: "Hehehe!"

Just then, they heard their parents' voices coming from the living room: "Mr. Ye, Brother Cheng, welcome, welcome, please come in!"

All three women immediately jumped out of bed, opened the door, and peeked out.

In the cramped living room, Radar Dart and Fatty welcomed Ye Dongsheng to sit on the sofa and warmly served him tea and water, while Wang Zhicheng stood respectfully beside Ye Dongsheng with his head bowed.

Ye Dongsheng smiled and said, "I just found out about what happened today. I'm sorry to have startled you."

Although both parties signed a contract and he paid 50 yuan, and the matter was considered settled, he had still benefited from it, so he couldn't just ignore the Radar Dart family.

Radar Dart quickly replied, "Not at all! We should thank Mr. Ye for taking such good care of us, and also Brother Cheng. If it weren't for him today, our family would have really been in trouble!"

Ye Dongsheng smiled and nodded: "I've already heard about it from Acheng. From now on, I'll send someone to take care of things here. If you have any problems, you can contact Acheng."

If Daoheng Bank makes any moves, you can contact me directly!

"Okay, thank you for your trouble, Mr. Ye!"

"It's alright, it's all part of the job~"
"By the way, I'll be taking Daoheng Bank to court in a month, and you might need to appear in court then."

Lei Dabiao patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Ye, I'll definitely testify for you in court!"

Ye Dongsheng chatted with Lei Dabiao and his wife for a while longer, then stood up and said, "Then I won't disturb you any longer."

"Mr. Ye, would you like to stay for dinner?" the couple warmly invited.

Ye Dongsheng smiled and pointed to the next room: "No need, Amei has already cooked dinner and is waiting for me~"

After Ye Dongsheng left, the three women came out of the room.

Upon seeing his three daughters, Radar Dart reprimanded them:

"You guys should learn more from Sister Mei. Men like women who are more virtuous! Stop being so crazy all day long!"

"Dad!!!"

After Ye Dongsheng left Lei Dabiao's house with a smile, he had just arrived at Ruan Mei's door when he saw a familiar figure at the door next door. Chun Sanshi Niang? Oh no, it looked like Fang Zhanbo's stepmother, Luo Huiling!

It's pitiful to think about Luo Huiling. She was favored by such a terrifying guy as Ding Xie. Later, when Fang Zhanbo's father, Fang Jinxin, was seriously injured and hospitalized by Ding Xie, she took care of him the whole time. Even after Fang Jinxin died and the Fang family's property was scattered, she still stayed by his side and treated Fang Jinxin's children as her own, driving a minibus every day to earn money and raise them to adulthood.

Unfortunately, he ultimately witnessed his three daughters, whom he had raised with his own hands, being thrown off a building by the four crabs of the Ding family, leading to his mental breakdown and madness...

Luo Huiling didn't know who this extraordinary young man was, but being kind to others, she smiled and nodded at Ye Dongsheng in greeting before opening the door and entering her home.

"Sister Ling, you're back!"

"Tingting, are you coming home today? Let me know early so I can cook dinner when I get back~"

"Sister Ting, no need, someone's cooking!" Fang Ting smiled and pointed to the kitchen.

Hearing a bubbling sound coming from the kitchen, Luo Huiling assumed it was one of her daughters cooking: "Is that Fangfang? Why are you back so early today?"

Fang Ting smiled and shook her head: "Sister Ling, see for yourself! You'll never guess!"

Curious, Luo Huiling walked to the kitchen door and saw that Fang Zhanbo was standing inside!
Luo Huiling covered her mouth in surprise. Her son had been very decadent all these years. He never cooked or did any housework. When he came home, he would just cover his head with the blanket and sleep like a lump of mud.

But today, Fang Zhanbo was radiant, humming a little tune as he cooked in the kitchen!
Although the smell wafting out wasn't very pleasant, Luo Huiling was still very gratified to see Fang Zhanbo cheer up and make this change, and her eyes couldn't help but well up with tears.

Half an hour later, Luo Huiling, Fang Zhanbo, and the three Fang women sat around the table, looking at the several dark and messy dishes, not knowing where to start.

Luo Huiling was the first to pick up a piece of food with her chopsticks, put it in her mouth, and then said with a smile, "Wow! It's very good!"

Seeing this, Fang Ting also picked up a piece with her chopsticks, chewed it a couple of times, and then quickly spat it out, sticking out her tongue and saying, "It's so salty! Sister Ling, how can you eat this!"

"A little saltiness goes well with rice!" Fang Ting complained, "Big brother, I'd rather cook it!"

Fang Fang smiled and advised, "It's your brother's first time cooking, so please don't blame him for putting in too much salt and soy sauce."

Fang Zhanbo shoveled rice into his mouth with his head down, his already dark face somewhat concealing his embarrassment.

He has been depressed for the past few years, partly due to the influence of the Ding family, and he sees no hope of revenge.

But today, having finally vented his pent-up anger after so many years, he was overjoyed and thought of going home to cook a meal for the whole family to celebrate. However, he didn't expect to make such a mess of things.

However, his stepmother and his sisters all took good care of him and stopped complaining. They all ate their meals together.

Fang Min, the younger sister, asked with a smile, "Hey, big brother, why have you suddenly changed your ways and started cooking today?"

Fang Zhanbo pouted: "What do you mean by 'changing your nature'? I've always been hardworking, okay? From now on, I'll take care of everything at home! I'm the only man in the family, and I'll definitely make sure you all live a good life!"

Upon hearing this, Luo Huiling burst into tears, covering her mouth and wiping away her tears. She felt that Fang Zhanbo had finally grown up and that all her years of hard work had not been in vain!

Seeing Law Wai-ling like this, Fong Chin-bo felt guilty, knowing that he had been a terrible person in the past few years and had let his family down, especially Law Wai-ling.

Fang Zhanbo quickly said, "Sister Ling, I have something happy to tell you! You don't know, I beat up Ding Yixie today!"

These words immediately startled the girls: "What?!"

"Brother, you hit Ding Yixie?"

"Brother, are you hurt?"

Luo Huiling's expression changed as well: "Zhanbo, why did you go and provoke them?! What if they come after you and cause you trouble?!"

"It's okay! It's not just me! Lots of people beat him up!"

Seeing this, Fang Zhanbo recounted everything he had witnessed that day, and then said:

"Don't worry, it was Tongyitang who beat him up! I mingled in the crowd and smashed some things, he won't know! Even if he wants to cause trouble, he'll go after Tongyitang!"

However, I've heard that the Tong Yee Tong is extremely powerful, even the Wo Luen Shing Society is no match for them. This time, the Ting family has offended them and kicked a hornet's nest; they're definitely in for a rough time!

Hearing Fang Zhanbo say this, Luo Huiling felt relieved, but still gave him some advice:

"Zhanbo, we're cutting ties with the Ding family. Don't have any more contact with them. They're all thugs involved in gangs; they won't reason with you!"

"Yeah, brother, we just need to live our own lives."

Fang Zhanbo originally wanted to make his family happy by telling them about this, but the women all advised him to behave himself and not cause trouble, which made him quite depressed.

"Okay, okay, I know!" Fang Zhanbo said, then buried his head in his rice again.

"By the way, isn't it just Amei and her mother-in-law living next door? I just saw a very distinguished-looking man, is he from next door?"

"I don't know, I've never seen it before?"

"Is he Sister Amei's boyfriend? Sister Amei is so pretty, she must have many suitors!"

“I heard from the gossipy old ladies in the building that a man came over last weekend, and Grandma Cai even bought groceries and cooked for him!”

As Fang Zhanbo buried himself in his food, Ye Dongsheng's image flashed through his mind. He had never had a good impression of people with power and influence, especially since he had been humiliated by Ye Dongsheng last time and beaten up by Ye Dongsheng's men.

"A random man from who-knows-where!"

Luo Huiling frowned: "Zhanbo, how can you talk like that!"

"That's right, big brother, we should be happy to have Sister Mei with a boyfriend!"

Fang Zhanbo scoffed and didn't say anything more. But when he thought of Ruan Mei, he felt a pang of jealousy. All the good women were taken by those rich men!

After the meal, seeing Fang Ting carrying her schoolbag, Luo Huiling asked, "Tingting, are you going back to school?"

Fang Ting smiled and nodded: "Sister Ling, I won't be staying at home today, I have to go back to school to finish my thesis!"

Fang Ting is currently the only college student in her family and the most promising one. She spends most of her time living on campus.

"It's so late, let me take you home!"

"Sister Ting, no need, you've had a long day, get some rest. I can take the minibus home, I'll be fine!"

Luo Huiling glanced at Fang Zhanbo, thinking that her son had grown up quite a bit, and said to him, "Zhanbo, why don't you take Tingting back to school? It's not safe for her to be alone as a girl."

Fang Zhanbo didn't refuse; he still loved his younger sisters dearly. He took the schoolbag from Fang Ting's hand.

"Let's go, little princess Tingting~"

"Hmph, you're the little princess!" Fang Ting chased Fang Zhanbo out of the house.

Seeing the two siblings resume their playful bickering, Luo Huiling couldn't help but smile.

Across the street downstairs, a van was parked, its dark windows obscuring the view inside.

With bandages wrapped around his head and his face swollen like a pig's head, Ding Yixie stared intently across the street. He had already asked around and found out that Fang Zhanbo's family lived next door to that radar dart and usually set up an appliance repair stall nearby.

He'd been waiting here for three hours, and this guy still hadn't come down!

But Ding Yixie wouldn't give up so easily. If he couldn't wait a day, he would wait for three days and three nights. He refused to believe that Fang Zhanbo wouldn't come out!
Perhaps it was a case of heaven rewarding those who persevere. The next moment, a man and a woman emerged from the building and walked onto the street. Ding Yixie's eyes flashed with a sharp light. The man was Fang Zhanbo, and the woman was Fang Ting!

Fang Ting was Ding Yixie's goddess when he was a child. Now that he has decided to take revenge on the Fang family, he will not let Fang Ting, his prey, go!

Ding Yixie waved his hand and said, "Let's do it!"

"Big brother, I'll be earning money to support the family after I graduate in a few months. You shouldn't be wandering around the streets anymore. Help Sister Ling with some of the housework; she works so hard!"

"I know, I know!"

Faced with his sister's lecture, Fang Zhanbo waved his hand impatiently.

"Am I the older brother or are you the older brother? Don't worry about my business, finish your thesis first!"

Just as he was about to teach his sister a lesson, a van suddenly stopped in front of them, and both of them were startled.

But the burly men who got out of the car didn't give them a chance to react. In just a few moments, they dragged the two of them into the car!
……

"Ah Ling! Ah Ling! Something terrible has happened!"

Luo Huiling, who was washing dishes, heard a knock at the door and hurried to open it. A neighbor, an older woman, said breathlessly:

"Ah Ling, I just saw your Zhanbo and Tingting being kidnapped on the street!"

Luo Huiling was shocked and smashed the bowl in her hand on the ground with a crash.

PS: Fang Zhanbo, Luo Huiling, Fang Fang, Fang Ting, Fang Min: "The Great Era".
