"Dad, this is the Dao-ge I was talking about," Jimmy said after leading Chen Dao to Zhao Yuanfei's desk.
Chen Dao felt a little nervous seeing that Zhao Yuanfei remained silent for so long; after all, the person in front of him was General Zhao, who held absolute power in Hong Kong. Zhao Yuanfei put down his pen and looked at Chen Dao for a long time before finally speaking:
Chapter 231 Excellent Value
Chapter 231 Excellent Value
"Don't just stand there, sit down. Make yourself at home here. Don't be so shy and fussy like a girl." After hearing this, Chen Dao and Tony sat down in the chairs opposite Zhao Yuanfei.
Zhao Yuanfei took out a cigarette and tossed one to Chen Dao and Tony, the same Xiyuan brand as Jimmy's. After lighting his own, he said, "I told you not to be shy. I hate people who dawdle. From what Jimmy said, you guys want to get that heartless guy out of here?"
Since Zhao Yuanfei was so generous, Chen Dao felt relieved. Tony lit a cigarette for Chen Dao, and Chen Dao took a puff and said, "Since Uncle Zhao is so straightforward, I'll be frank too. That's right, I want to get that person out of trouble. I wonder if that's possible?"
Zhao Yuanfei readily agreed, saying, "Sure, no problem. My son's working for you now, so I have no reason not to help you. I have to consider my son's reputation. But if you want to get him out of here, you'll have to find someone to die in his place. I wonder if you're willing?"
"How do you plan to replace it?" Chen Dao asked.
Zhao Yuanfei continued, "There is a way. I can help you buy another death row inmate to replace this person, but that will cost money."
"How much?" Chen Dao asked again.
“Five hundred thousand, that five hundred thousand is for the prison warden. That’s all I can do for you. If you want to get Wuqing out, then take five hundred thousand. Don’t worry, I’m offering the lowest price. You’re my son’s friend, I won’t ask for more money from you,” Zhao Yuanfei said.
Tony was astonished and looked at Jimmy, who shrugged and said, "If my dad says 500,000, then it's 500,000. My dad never lies."
"What are you talking about, your father? I'm not a monk. What do you think? Take the money and leave with the people," Zhao Yuanfei said.
Tony looked at Chen Dao and said, "Brother Dao, this is too expensive."
Chen Daoze said with a smile, "Money is meant to be spent, so Uncle Zhao, it's settled then. I'll bring the money and the person tomorrow, but can I go see him first?"
After hearing this, Zhao Yuanfei smiled and said, "A young man with such high moral character is bound to achieve great things in the future. I feel at ease entrusting my son to you. Jimmy, take your brother Dao to see the person. I have some things to attend to." After Zhao Yuanfei finished speaking, Jimmy led Chen Dao and the other man out of the room.
As they went downstairs, Tony said to Chen Dao, "Brother Dao, isn't 500,000 yuan too expensive to buy a human life?"
After hearing this, Chen Dao laughed and said, "Have you never heard the phrase 'good value for money'?"
Jimmy then said, "Tony, you should be grateful. My dad only sees Dao as my brother. If it were a complete stranger, it would be a million dollars for a life." To Tony's surprise, the group had already entered the courtyard.
Jimmy drove around the building, passed the barricade at the back gate, and drove straight out. After leaving the compound, Chen Dao found that the scene behind him was completely different.
It was a grassy area, but the grass was covered with prisoners wearing handcuffs, shackles, and prison uniforms (Noma's). Every few prisoners were guarded by an armed soldier. Seeing this, Chen Dao asked, "Why are they playing cards there? Are they all death row inmates?"
Jimmy then said, "They're all going to be killed by weapons tomorrow. We make sure they're happy the day before they die, and they eat very well that night."
After driving for a while, Jimmy parked the car in front of a building. The building was a bit dilapidated, but with Jimmy around, the journey was smooth.

Chapter 232 A Key
Jimmy led the group up to the third floor with practiced ease. Once inside, Chen Dao realized that the place was similar to a prison, with iron bars lining both sides of the corridor, and each room contained death row inmates who were not expected to live much longer.
After reaching the third floor, Jimmy led the group straight down the corridor to the room at the end. Upon arriving at the iron-barred cell door, Chen Dao looked into the room and saw a person with long hair covering their face, but their features were visible through the hair.
Chen Dao noticed that Wuqing's face was angular and handsome, no less so than those Koreans. Wuqing showed no reaction, but a murderous aura surrounded Chen Dao.
Jimmy said to Chen Dao, "Brother Dao, it's him." As soon as Jimmy finished speaking, Wuqing in cell 940 raised his head and looked outside. However, facing Wuqing, a dangerous target, the army had used iron chains to tie Wuqing's hands and feet to the wall.
Chen Dao showed no fear, staring directly into Wuqing's eyes. After a long while, he smiled and said, "I want the person." After saying that, he glanced at Wuqing with a smile and walked away without looking back, leaving Wuqing in the cell completely bewildered.
However, not long after Chen Dao left, a blonde, blue-eyed foreign woman dressed in a tight black leather jacket, pants, and boots slipped to the door of the ruthless prison cell.
"How did the number one assassin, Ruthless, get caught? It'll be a real joke if word gets out," the foreign woman mocked Ruthless.
Without even raising his head, Wuqing said, "Carol, what brings you here?" Although Wuqing's tone was ordinary, a hint of surprise could be heard.
Carol replied with a hint of arrogance, "I can come and go as I please in places like this. Hey, you won't even look at me?" Carol became somewhat angry as she spoke.
With a cold expression and tone, Wuqing said, "Are you here to laugh at me? If so, forget it. I believe I won't die." It was because of that brief moment when Chen Dao and he locked eyes that Wuqing knew his life was not meant to end.
Carol snorted and said, "I won't tell anyone that you were caught. I still have a few things to do." As she turned to leave, she tossed in a key.
Just as Carol was swaying her hips as she left, Wuqing raised her head and, looking at Carol's hot figure, couldn't help but have a nosebleed. After feeling the blood flowing from her nose, Wuqing smiled at the key at her feet, and then stomped her foot, breaking the key into several pieces.
Jimmy drove Chen Dao and Tony back to Paradise Bar, and Jimmy Fly followed Chen Dao into Paradise Bar.
As soon as Chen Dao reached the door, he heard blaring music coming from inside the bar. Chen Dao led the way into the bar and went straight to the bar counter, where Ahua and Ahu were whistling at the beautiful women. After ordering a lemonade, Chen Dao looked at the crowd dancing in the lobby.
"How's business today?" Chen Dao asked Ah Hua and Ah Hu after taking a sip of lemonade.
"Business is booming today, Dao-ge, how did your negotiation go?" Ahua asked.
At this moment, Jimmy, Tony, and Fly also sat down at the bar. Chen Dao did not answer Ahua's question but simply said, "Withdraw 500,000 yuan in cash tomorrow morning, and we'll go to the military region to pick up the person."
After staying a while longer and finishing his lemonade, Chen Dao was driven home by Jimmy. Once inside, Chen Dao felt aches all over his body and muttered to himself, "Women really have a lot of trouble shopping."
"You're back?" Zhou's mother, wearing pajamas, came out of the bedroom, turned on the living room light, and looked at Chen Dao.
Chapter 233 A Familiar Figure
Chapter 233 A Familiar Figure
Chen Dao simply grunted in response. Just as Zhou's mother was about to speak, Chen Dao said, "I went out to play with my friends today. I'm a little tired after playing all day, so I'm going to bed now." After saying that, he slipped into his room. Zhou's mother looked at Chen Dao's door with a smile and said, "This child, really."
When Chen Dao returned to his room and saw the bed, he didn't even want to take off his clothes. But after washing up, he took off his clothes and crawled into bed.
Chen Dao noticed that his phone was vibrating inside his pants. He took it out and opened it. It was a message, and he saw three missed text messages.
The first message was posted by Li Jiaxin around 5 PM: I'm home, are you home yet?
The second message was posted by Li Jiaxin around 7:00 AM: Why aren't you replying to me?
The third message was also posted by Li Jiaxin, just a minute earlier: You're asleep, right? Goodnight!
After reading the message, Chen Dao replied with a smile, "No, I'm not asleep yet. I just saw the message."
After a while, Chen Dao's phone vibrated again. Li Jiaxin said: Oh, I sent you three messages before you replied. I thought you were busy!
"No, I was a little tired when I got home so I took a nap. What are you doing? Did you have fun today?" - Chen Daofa.
"Thank you for today. I feel much better now. Don't worry, I'm fine. But I no longer believe in love. Men are all the same." Li Jiaxin replied.
"No way, you can't condemn all of us men because of one person. Besides, it sounds like you're planning to become a monk," Chen Dao replied with a smile.
At home, Li Jiaxin lay on her bed and replied with a smile after reading the message: "You're such a chatterbox. I'm not talking to you anymore. I'm going to sleep. See you at the club the day after tomorrow."
"Goodnight." Li Jiaxin felt as sweet as honey as she looked at Chen Dao's two simple words and closed her eyes with a smile.
Chen Dao slept for quite a long time, not until after 10 a.m. the next day. After checking his watch, he went out of the bedroom, washed up, dressed, and left the house.
Chen Dao had a good relationship with the elderly people in the building, and he greeted them all on his way downstairs.
Chen Dao is quite well-known in this building. Whenever the elderly family needs his help, Chen Dao will help without hesitation. Chen Dao is also a recognized good man.
Chen Dao still took the bus to Paradise Bar, but just as the bus passed the Prosperity District station, a familiar figure boarded the bus. This person was none other than Director Su Yun.
Su Yun clearly saw Chen Dao and walked over with a smile. Chen Dao was still sitting in the two-seater, and after Chen Dao sat inside, Su Yun sat on the outside of Chen Dao.

"What a coincidence to run into you here. Where are you going?" Su Yun asked Chen Dao with a smile.
Chen Dao smiled and said, "It's quite a coincidence. I'm free today and I'm going to visit Fatty. What are you going to do there?"
Su Yun replied, "Oh, I just came out for a stroll. I'm getting moldy from staying at home all the time, and I've run out of many daily necessities, so I came out for a walk."
......... .... 0
Both of them seemed to be thinking about their embarrassing situation on the back playground on Friday, and neither of them spoke.
Chen Dao felt the atmosphere was a bit awkward, so he spoke up: "Um... I didn't mean to be on the back playground that Friday! I didn't know you were behind me, and then..."
Su Yun couldn't help but laugh when she saw Chen Dao's expression. She joked with him, "Chen Dao, I don't know if you did it on purpose or not, but you stole my first kiss. What do you think?"
Seeing that Su Yun didn't seem to care much about it, Chen Dao relaxed and joked, "Really? You say it was your first kiss? I don't believe you! And to be honest, Friday was also my first kiss."

Chapter 234 Paying to Redeem People
"What do you mean 'really' or 'fake'? It really was my first kiss. I wanted to save it for my future husband, but you stole it from me. But I'm much more relieved that yours was also my first kiss. You don't seem like the kind of person who flirts around, so we're even now." Su Yun turned her head to one side and said with a smile.
It would have been better if Su Yun hadn't said that, because after Su Yun said it, Chen "940" felt a little sorry for Su Yun.
Looking at Su Yun, who had turned her head away with an expression she couldn't quite decipher, Chen Dao could only tentatively say, "I'm sorry, I really didn't mean it. You know your first kiss is so important... Sigh, but I didn't mean it either." Chen Dao seemed a little lost as he spoke.
Seeing this, Su Yun turned to look at Chen Dao and laughed, "What are you doing? I didn't mean to make you take responsibility. That thing was just a joke, nothing serious. I was just teasing you." Chen Dao rolled his eyes at Su Yun after hearing this.
Chen Dao finally arrived at his stop and hurriedly said to Su Yun, "I've arrived. I'm leaving now. Bye-bye." After saying that, Chen Dao ran off the bus in a flash.
After Chen Dao got out of the car, Su Yun looked at him through the car window and laughed, "There aren't many boys like this in today's society. He blushes even after saying a few words to a girl. Really."
Chen Dao felt instantly relieved after getting out of the car and walked towards the Paradise Bar, which wasn't far away. The bar was still open; during the day, the bar was essentially just letting out the stale air from the previous night, otherwise it would be unbearable to stay inside.
When Chen Dao entered the bar, he found that Tony Jimmy, Ah Hua, Ah Hu, and Brother Fly were all waiting for him inside.
When Ah Hu saw Chen Dao arrive, he quickly stepped forward and said, "Brother Dao, you've finally come! I thought you'd forgotten about yesterday."
Chen Dao chuckled and slapped Ah Hu on the shoulder before looking at Tony and saying, "Did you get the money? Let's go once you've withdrawn it." Tony then followed Chen Dao, Jimmy, and the other man out of the bar carrying a large brown paper bag filled with bundles of red bills.
Jimmy was driving a military off-road vehicle today. After the four of them got in the car, Jimmy drove straight to the Sea Breeze Military District in the suburbs.
It's the same military district, the same floor, the same room, and the same people in the room are the same as yesterday.
This time, Chen Dao wasn't as nervous as he was yesterday. He walked straight to Zhao Yuanfei's desk, looked at him, and smiled, "Uncle Zhao, I've brought the 500,000. Can we go pick up the person now?" As he spoke, Tony placed the large brown paper bag containing the money on the desk.
Zhao Yuanfei didn't even glance at the brown paper bag on the table, but said to Chen Dao, "Well, you can take him away anytime. But I advise you, Uncle, to be careful with this ruthless and cold-blooded man. Don't spend money to ransom him only to have him killed again."
