Chapter 153 Disappointment at one's own shortcomings

Traditional triads operate like businesses, aiming for steady, long-term profits. They would never consider get-rich-quick schemes like drug trafficking or arms smuggling. Therefore, remaining inconspicuous is their best survival strategy. Who could have imagined that in just seven or eight days, Hung Hing would cause such a stir, becoming the focus of the entire underworld? This is quite out of character for triads.

"There's nothing I can do. We don't cause trouble, but it just keeps coming our way, one thing after another piling up. What can I do?" Ye Tian's gaze suddenly turned cold, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes. He asked in a deep voice, "Which gossip has brought this up?"

Handsome Kun spat out a curse, his tone disdainful: "Who the hell dares?"

Ye Tian shrugged and said casually, "That settles it then."

"Look at Hung Hing's recent profits," Liang Kun chuckled, a hint of smugness in his voice. "Anyone who dares to utter a word of criticism would have their mouth torn apart by those gang leaders." The murder of the Little B family exposed the traitor Fat Lai, and most importantly, Tung Sing paid a heavy price, providing Hung Hing with ample compensation. This significantly boosted the power of the gang leaders. Big D's move to join Hung Hing with his investment and his Tsuen Wan branch was like opening up another avenue for wealth for the gang leaders. Who would object? Who would dare object? By annexing the Chung Ching Society, Hung Hing not only gained prestige but also reaped substantial profits. Especially the last deal, which also eased tensions with Tung Sing. Even Chiang Tin-sang remarked that Yip Tin was a lucky charm. Each of these was a real benefit; how could they possibly pass it up? So what if they were at the center of the storm? They'd already reaped all the benefits. The only downside is that if they want to collaborate with other clubs in the future, people will be more wary and cautious of them.

"This is a good time to stay away from all this trouble and focus on managing our business." Ye Tian patted Liang Kun on the shoulder and earnestly reminded him, "Whether it's the movie theater, the minibus, or any other business, it all requires dedication and time to cultivate. We're here to make money, not to fight for empty fame all day long. Isn't it just what we want that they ignore us?"

Liang Kun chuckled and nodded in deep agreement: "That makes sense."

The two brothers were chatting enthusiastically when the old lady, holding Fang Ting's hand, slowly walked up to them. Upon seeing this, the brothers hurriedly threw their cigars aside, afraid the old lady would see them.

"Tingting has officially joined our family, Tian. You must treat her well from now on." Ye Tian, ​​with his sharp eyes, immediately noticed a vibrant green bracelet on Fang Ting's wrist. His eyes widened, and he exclaimed, "That thing from my godmother..." Liang Kun also gasped, staring wide-eyed at the bracelet, "Isn't that the one you've worn for so many years?"

The old lady smiled, her eyes narrowing into slits, her face full of affection as she gently patted Fang Ting's hand: "I like Tingting, so I gave her the bracelet." Ye Tian secretly gave Fang Ting a thumbs-up, and Fang Ting smiled smugly. The old lady's favorite thing was this bracelet, not because it was priceless, but simply because she liked it and had worn it close to her body for so many years.

"This bracelet was given to me by Ah Tian eight years ago, and I've worn it close to my body ever since. Now I can finally entrust it to someone I trust."

Handsome Kun scratched his head, somewhat unconvinced, and asked, "My mother, Ah Tian, ​​has eight wives, so why did you give this bracelet to your sister-in-law?"

The old lady glared at him fiercely, her eyes full of displeasure. Liang Kun immediately shrank back, feeling guilty, and lowered his head: "You still have the nerve to say that Ah Tian has eight wives? And you haven't brought a single one home!" Liang Kun wanted to slap himself; he really knew how to bring up such a sensitive topic!

The old lady held Fang Ting's hand, making no attempt to hide her favoritism, and said gently, "Ah Tian's other wives are all very good to me and very filial, but they all come from well-off families and don't lack these things. Tingting is different; her experiences are somewhat similar to mine when I was young, and it breaks my heart to see her like that. Ah Tian, ​​you must treat her well in the future."

Ye Tian nodded repeatedly, his tone sincere and his eyes firm: "Godmother, rest assured, now that I've brought her home, I will love her wholeheartedly, protect her, and treat her well."

The old lady was clearly very satisfied with Ye Tian's statement. She placed Fang Ting's hand in Ye Tian's hand and looked at the two of them standing together, liking them more and more: "What a well-matched young couple." Fang Ting's face showed a happy smile, her cheeks were slightly red, and she looked particularly charming.

The old lady's gaze slowly shifted to Liang Kun, and the smile on her face instantly vanished, her expression darkening. Everyone could sense that the old lady was very angry.

Young Kun's heart tightened, and he quickly and cautiously asked, "Did I do something to upset you?"

The old lady completely ignored him and continued to look at Ye Tian gently: "Tian, ​​you did the right thing. As a man, you not only have to make the woman feel at ease after marrying her, but also put her family at ease. Go, go and meet Tingting's family." As she spoke, the old lady actually shooed the three of them out the door.

Liang Kun, looking speechless, shrugged and said with a wry smile, "Why are you kicking me out when I don't need to see my brother's wife and family?"

The old lady let out a cold snort, her eyes full of dissatisfaction, and said sternly, "If you don't hurry up and bring me a wife, don't ever come to see me again."

Bang! The door slammed shut, leaving the three people outside staring at each other in bewilderment.

Ye Tian reached out and poked Liang Kun's arm, his face full of reproach: "I told you to bring a sister-in-law back soon, but you wouldn't listen. Now look what happened! You've dragged us all down with you!" As he spoke, he secretly touched Fang Ting's arm. Fang Ting immediately understood and cooperated, saying: "It's okay, Tian. Next time we'll both come together. I'll knock on the door, and my godmother will definitely open it."

Handsome Kun stared dumbfounded at the two men in front of him, who were so angry they were blowing their beards and glaring at him: "You two, don't go too far! I'm still your boss!"

Fang Ting winked at him, a mischievous smile on her face, and said in a lighthearted tone, "Not necessarily."

Handsome Kun paused for a moment, then subconsciously asked, "What do you mean, 'not necessarily'?"

Fang Ting chuckled, a hint of mockery in her voice: "Ah Tian and I are planning to have a baby, boss. If you don't hurry up, your future child will have to call our child 'boss'."

As if struck by lightning, Liang Kun swayed, his face filled with disbelief, as if he had been violently attacked!

Ye Tian couldn't help but burst into loud laughter. It took Liang Kun a while to recover. Looking at the two of them, he sighed helplessly, "You two...you really are a match made in heaven! All you do is annoy me! Let's go, let's go!"

Ye Tian and Fang Ting exchanged a smile and laughed even more happily!

When the group reached the bottom of the stairs and it was time to part ways, Liang Kun looked at Ye Tian and asked, "Are you sure you don't need me to come with you?"

Ye Tian shrugged, a hint of teasing in his eyes, and retorted, "You never intended to come with me before... Could it be that you wanted to familiarize yourself with the process of meeting the parents first?"

Liang Kun spat fiercely, unable to stay any longer, and turned to leave, afraid that if he stayed even a second longer, Ye Tian would tease him again, leaving only Ye Tian's hearty laughter echoing behind him!

Wang Jianguo's official workplace is the Causeway Bay Security Company, but in reality, he's Ye Tian's personal driver. As for that blue-haired kid, Ye Tian had already assigned him to the security company to work with Wang Jianjun.

Fang Ting hadn't driven far when she sensed something was wrong. She frowned and asked, "Isn't this the way home?"

Ye Tian held her hand and patted it gently, his tone tender: "Don't rush home, we need to see someone first."

Fang Ting tilted her head, her eyes full of confusion, and asked, "Didn't we just meet, Godmother?"

Ye Tian shook his head and said softly, "It's not someone on my side, it's your stepmother, Aunt Ling."

Fang Ting suddenly stopped in her tracks, stunned, her eyes filled with surprise.

Looking at her, Ye Tian slowly explained, "Your Aunt Ling has misunderstood that your brother, Fang Zhanbo, has been learning stock trading techniques from me. She's now living in the apartment that Inspector Li helped her rent. She's just disappointed in him."
