"No matter what you think, as a brother, I hope you can live a long life."
Tang Jinyan said seriously, "I always feel that your face is getting paler and paler day by day, and I feel uneasy."
"Well … it's just your psychological effect …" Lee Yoon-rim smiled, "Or maybe I'm a little tired these days?"
"If you're tired, after you make a new communication arrangement with Inoue Kunio, you can take off the burden of Incheon and rest for a while.
In the future, Incheon will be handed over to Iori, and you can go back to Seoul and do some idle work. "
"That won't do." Lee Yoon-rim stared at him angrily, "Don't tell me you want to get rid of my influence?"
Tang Jinyan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "How can there be such a thing?"
Lee Yoon-rim said very seriously, "I can take off the burden of Incheon, but I want to be the executive officer of New Village Group."
"That's very tiring."
Lee Yoon-rim insisted somewhat unreasonably, "If you don't let me do it, then Master Tang Jiu is going to get rid of me!"
Tang Jinyan said helplessly, "Why are you so persistent?
Can't you rest for a while and go out to play?
Maybe you'll meet someone you like … "
"I don't like anyone."
Lee Yoon-rim said word by word, "I just want to personally send you … to the day when you don't have to be afraid of anyone."
"You know, that's just a dream."
"What's wrong with having a dream?"
Tang Jinyan didn't say anything.
Lee Yoon-rim said lazily, "Speaking of which, you want to hand Incheon over to Iori, is it because you're completely relieved of him?"
"Of course, I'm not that naive."
Tang Jinyan whispered, "It's just that the situation in Incheon is different from before. This will be a company where the ruler is well aware of the existence of smuggling. Except for those who are acquiesced, who can do it?"
Lee Yoon-rim laughed and said, "So other than us, Iori can't get him away?"
"Yes, and the new chief prosecutor of Incheon will also be Juli's father's confidant. With him keeping an eye on things, nothing can be done."
"If that's the case …" Lee Yoon-rim stretched her body. "Then, I will prepare to pack up and return to the new village."
Tang Jinyan looked at him helplessly. "If you really want to do it, then do it. Besides you, I don't trust anyone else."
Hearing that he finally agreed, Lee Yoon-rim's mouth hooked up with a smile. "After having a meal, will we take a nap here?"
"Yeah, I'm pretty tired. I still have an appointment in the afternoon. I plan to visit Jin Taicun."
"Are you sure that entering the hospital of the Pan-Western Sect is not sending yourself to the door?"
Tang Jinyan smiled. "Don't worry. I'll be as safe as Mount Tai."
"I like how domineering you are …" Lee Yoon-rim smiled charmingly and leaned over again. Stroking his firm biceps, she said in a sweet voice, "Do you need me to serve you during your lunch break?"
Tang Jinyan could no longer remain calm. He fled in a hurry.
Looking at his disheveled figure, Lee Yoon-rim laughed on the sofa for a long time before she stopped, and her expression gradually turned lonely.
*****
In the afternoon, Tang Jinyan, dressed in a black suit, walked toward the entrance of the Pan-Western Sect's hospital.
Lee Eun-suk and Takeshi Tamazawa were both dressed in suits and leather shoes, and Crow followed behind with a large number of underlings.
The scene looked majestic, and everywhere they passed was so quiet that not even a mouse could be seen. The pedestrians kept quiet out of fear, as if a gang fight was about to break out.
There were also countless people in black suits at the entrance of the hospital, coldly looking at Tang Jinyan and his group.
A person who seemed to be the leader could not help but step out and ask sternly, "What is the meaning of this, Ninth Masters?"
Tang Jinyan stopped in his tracks, and his brothers behind him quickly stopped as well. Although they were a gang that had not been disciplined and trained, at this moment, they looked very orderly. The sound of their leather shoes coming to a halt brought about a mountain-like pressure.
It could be seen that many people's faces had changed slightly, and even the leader who stepped out to question looked a little scared.
Tang Jinyan could understand. Over the years, the so-called gangs had all been doing business that appeared to be law-abiding on the surface. They prioritized making money. Many times, people could even forget their identity as gangs and treat them as real businessmen.
Quan Zheng Yang was a very typical example. During the T-Ara incident, Quan Zheng Yang, as a gang leader, could not do anything to the well-dressed representatives of the Dispatch Board. From this, it could be seen how weak the famous gang, the Pan-Western Gang, had become. They probably only had a little bit of momentum when they were extorting and threatening ordinary people.
Actually, the New Village Faction was not doing any better. Just like Sixth Brother Bai, he was actually sued by an artist in his early years. Tang Jinyan felt that if he were in Sixth Brother Bai's shoes, that artist would have been tortured a hundred times. How would he have the guts to sue someone?
It was no wonder that Tang Jinyan had unified the Hamburglar Gang with such a thunderous force, and caused great pressure to the other gangs in Seoul. They were all worried that he would raise his butcher's knife.
Tang Jinyan dug his ear and casually flicked it. "I have an appointment with your Old Man Quan to visit Senior Kim. Why are you blocking the door?"
"Do you need so many people to visit our leader?"
"Senior Kim Taicun is our senior. Many of our brothers have heard of senior's deeds. Who doesn't admire him?
It's not only me, Tang Jiu, who wants to visit, who doesn't want to? "
Tang Jinyan said lazily, "Your gang is a big gang. You can't be so petty to not allow people to visit."
The leader was a little speechless. After a while, he said, "The old man is seriously ill and needs to rest. If so many people go in, it will disturb his peace."
"That's right. Tang is not an unreasonable person."
Tang Jinyan clapped his hands and said, "I will only bring two brothers in. If you continue to make excuses, you are not giving me, Tang Jiu, any face."
The leader hesitated for a while, then turned around and waved his hand, indicating for his men to make way.
Tang Jinyan smiled and swaggered through the door with Lee Eun-suk and Takeshi Tamazawa.
Under the watchful eyes of a large group of people, the other party was obviously tactful enough to ignore the so-called body search and other trifling matters.
Compared to the way he met with Mao Zedong in the morning, the current way of communication was a completely different template. The contrast was almost like they were in a different world.
Sometimes, Tang Jinyan felt that what he and Park Soyeon thought of as "playing different roles" was a synonym for schizophrenia.
Unlike the group of guards at the door, Kim Taicun's ward was very quiet. Only Quan Zhengyang was by his side.
Tang Jinyan entered alone, while Lee Eun-suk and Takeshi Tamazawa guarded the door.
Seeing Tang Jinyan enter, Quan Zhengyang said in a low voice, somewhat displeased, "How impressive."
Tang Jinyan smiled and did not argue with him. His gaze fell on Kim Taicun, who was lying on the bed.
The once all-powerful hero was now just a shriveled little old man. He lay there haggard, with an IV drip on his wrist.
From the moment Tang Jinyan entered the room, his muddy old eyes were fixed on his majestic posture. Then, he sighed softly.
Tang Jinyan bowed respectfully, "I wish you a speedy recovery, senior."
Hearing this, Kim Taicun laughed and said in a hoarse voice, "If I recover, you might be the first to kill me. I might as well lie here. At least you can bow."
Tang Jinyan grinned, revealing a row of neat white teeth.
Quan Zhengyang rolled his eyes in annoyance.
Kim Taicun continued, "The coexistence of black and white cannot be recreated, Tang Jiu.
It will cause too many unpleasant memories. Even Mao Zedong can't bear it. "
"Yes." Tang Jinyan bowed respectfully, "Thank you for your guidance, senior."
"As long as you don't cross that line, you can do whatever you want under the shadow of Seoul."
Kim Taicun closed his eyes and said placidly, "You and Zhengyang have worked well together. I hope you can support him more in the future."
Tang Jinyan continued to grin, "Of course. Zhengyang and I are good friends …"
This time, even Jin Taicun was annoyed. "That's enough. Tang Jiu, you've already done what you were supposed to do in front of everyone.
The old man needs to rest. Zhengyang, please see him out. "
On the balcony, Tang Jinyan handed Quan Zhengyang a cigarette. The two leaned against the railing and puffed out smoke, "You old man aren't muddle-headed at all."
Quan Zhengyang replied placidly, "He's been shrewd all his life.
The reason why I succeeded to the throne is because he saw our partnership. He thought that with your support, I wouldn't fall. "
"Hah … it's much easier for you than it is for me."
Tang Jinyan blew out a ring of smoke, "I was wondering why he wasn't afraid that you and I would work together to take over the Pan-Western Alliance. Now I know that he's fearless. He knows that I can't do it."
Quan Zhengyang was not in a good mood. "I'm not going to work with you from the inside.
Why would I listen to your orders instead of being a big boss?
Am I crazy? "
"Really?" Tang Jinyan smiled, "I think you'll have to listen to me soon."
Quan Zhengyang narrowed his eyes, "Tang Jiu, confidence is good, but blind arrogance is wrong."
"How about this? Do you dare to make a bet with me?"
"Speak."
"I'll bet that you'll have something to ask of me within a week."
"Bet?"
Tang Jinyan smiled brightly, "Don't be so wary. We're partners after all. Why would I cheat you?
It's definitely a good bet where everyone is happy and peaceful. "
"If you have something to say, just say it."
"When the time comes … our two factions will bury the hatchet and become solid allies. What do you think?"
Quan Zhengyang narrowed his eyes and stared at Tang Jinyan's expression. Tang Jinyan was still smiling brightly. His expression was magnanimous.
After a long time, Quan Zhengyang let out a long sigh, "Tang Jiu … I thought you'd really stop.
You're an insatiable wolf. You're born to be in the underworld. Really. "
Tang Jinyan blinked innocently, "Hey, it's such a good bet for peace. Why do you have such a look of disgust on your face?"
Quan Zhengyang angrily threw the cigarette butt far away, "I'll take this bet!"
"Why don't you just take it?"
Tang Jinyan smiled and patted him on the shoulder. Suddenly, he changed the topic and changed the topic. "I suddenly realized something."
"What now?"
"The big bosses of our two factions are actually related to the entertainment industry … It seems that you can be a big boss in the entertainment industry!"
Quan Zhengyang left in a huff.
