"Does he really not want it?" Boss Lady couldn't help but ask again, facing the dejected Viper who had returned.
"Not only does he not want the one million, but I could see in his eyes when he looked at the bank card that no amount of money would matter," Viper replied.
"Then what does he want?"
"He wants us to stop the drug business. He wants everyone to be able to reunite happily with their loved ones," Viper sighed.
"Loved ones? Family? My loved ones and family were killed!" Boss Lady suddenly widened her eyes, making a clicking sound between her teeth.
Viper waited for Boss Lady's emotions to calm down slightly before saying, "Later, I went to the Inn to inquire. This person is named Zhang Yang and comes from Shanhai Province!"
"Zhang Yang? Shanhai Province?" Boss Lady's body trembled slightly, and a sharp light suddenly flashed in her eyes. "Do you have a photo?"
"I do. While chatting with him, I fiddled with my phone and took a picture," Viper said, handing over the phone.
"It really is him! I told you I had seen someone who looked just like him; it turns out they are the same person!" Boss Lady exclaimed.
"You know him?" Viper asked in surprise without thinking.
"A year ago, I went to Haizhou with Alang to discuss a business deal. He saved me; at that time, he was just a high school student," Boss Lady said slowly.
"He saved you? So he's your benefactor?" Viper gasped, thinking this situation was getting more complicated.
"Such small favors don't need to be remembered. Later, we were caught by the police because he tipped them off. My dad even hired a hitman to kill him, but it didn't succeed. Moreover, my dad was killed by a hitman later on, and I suspect it might be related to him," Boss Lady said. "You could say that my hatred for him outweighs any gratitude. However, after returning to Shazhou, I was busy expanding my power and business and didn't have the chance for revenge."
Viper knew that Boss Lady had been caught in Haizhou; at that time, he was still following Boss Lady's father. Fortunately, Boss Lady insisted she didn't know it was a transaction; she thought she was just going out to have fun with her boyfriend, not realizing they were dealing drugs. Additionally, Boss Lady's father spent a lot of money to smooth things over and ultimately received a suspended sentence.
Later on, after Boss Lady's father was killed and she lost her loved ones and family in succession, she suddenly seemed like a different person. After returning to Shazhou, she quickly took over her father's old forces and recruited several experts. In less than a year, she established herself in Shazhou, especially in the last six months when she gained significant influence and earned the title of Boss Lady.
Yes, Boss Lady is Sister Yao, Man Ting Fang. Her father is naturally Tianfu Province Drug Lord Man Cheng Chuan, also known as Chuan the Boss.
"I think it's time I meet him," said Sister Yao, no, she was no longer just Sister Yao; she was Boss Lady, and it should be Boss Lady who spoke.
"How will you meet? How many people will you bring?" asked Viper.
"Tomorrow night, at Tianfu Club," Boss Lady thought for a moment. "I'll let you know the specifics later. For now, go notify Hong Guang and have him come along." As she spoke, a dangerous aura flashed in Boss Lady's eyes, one that made Viper feel uneasy.
Just as Hong Guang returned to the shop, he received a phone call.
"Boss Lady wants to see us," he told Zhang Yang.
"Let's meet," replied Zhang Yang decisively, then glanced at Hong Guang. "Don't worry with me around."
"I'm not worried; I'm just curious about what you used to do."
"I was a student, a freshman. Coming here is like dropping out."
"Then why did you come here?"
"To escape."
"Escape from what?"
"You're asking too much. Just know I'm not a wanted criminal and won't cause you any trouble." Zhang Yang smiled and then asked, "What were you out doing?"
Hong Guang chuckled. "Oh, we had a Waitress leave at the restaurant, so I went to hire another server." Just then, he suddenly pointed at the door. "Look, she's here."
Zhang Yang looked up to see that it was actually Wang Dan who had entered.
"Are you no longer working as a massage therapist?" Zhang Yang nodded and then asked. This question made Wang Dan's previously smiling face suddenly turn cold. "Do you think I was born wanting to do that?" After saying this, she walked straight into the back kitchen.
Hong Guang awkwardly smiled, "This girl is a bit strange, just ignore her."
"She's the most normal one among the massage therapists in your shop. Gourd is a bit perverted, Knife Face is withdrawn, and Sister Black is a bit slow." Zhang Yang recalled and said.
"Damn, you really have a way with words, giving everyone nicknames. To be honest, your comments are quite accurate." Hong Guang suddenly laughed.
Zhang Yang walked into the back kitchen, where Wang Dan had already changed into a waitress uniform.
"I didn't mean it that way, you know," Zhang Yang leaned against the door frame and lit a cigarette. "Why did you stop?"
"Because of you," Wang Dan looked at Zhang Yang.
"Me?" Zhang Yang tilted his mouth. "I told you, don't fall for me."
"Not yet. Because you told me to get lost, I suddenly feel like I should really get out of this industry." Wang Dan's face was beautiful, and wearing the waitress uniform gave her a different charm.
"What about your family?" Zhang Yang suddenly asked. "Is your name really Wang Dan?"
Wang Dan leaned closer to Zhang Yang, her eyes half-smiling: "Do you think I would use my real name? Actually, I'm an orphan. I never met my father, and my mother passed away when I was eleven. I was raised by my aunt, and when I was sixteen, my uncle started to make advances on me. In a fit of anger, I ran away and started working in Shazhou, not far from my hometown."
"Then what's your last name?"
"My mother’s last name is Wang, but my ID says Zong—Zong Yidan—so I tell people my name is Wang Dan. My mother said my father was a very charming man who came to Tianfu Province to do business and stayed for half a year with her. She said that when he left, he didn't know she was pregnant. When she found out she was pregnant and went to Shanzhou to find him, she discovered he was already married and had a daughter." Wang Dan spoke fluently, indicating how many times her mother must have repeated this story to her.
"Shazhou?"
"Yes, that's why I feel something unusual when I see you're from Shazhou," Wang Dan said. "My father is also a Shazhou native; his name is Zong Yaoshi. However, I've never gone to Shazhou to inquire about him. He wronged my mother, and I don't want to acknowledge him as my father."
Zhang Yang was so absorbed in thought that he didn't notice the ash burning his hand until it was too late. "Damn, your father is a big shot now!"
"Ah?" Wang Dan was surprised. "You know him?"
"Not just know him." Zhang Yang forced a smile, realizing how small the world was. Despite the thousands of miles between Shanzhou and Shazhou, he had encountered Zong Yaoshi's illegitimate daughter. However, after Wang Dan mentioned it, Zhang Yang noticed that she was indeed very beautiful and bore some resemblance to Zong Lingxu. The difference was that while Zong Lingxu was cold and aloof, Wang Dan appeared more graceful.
"Your father does have a daughter; she should be your sister. He also has a son, which means you have a brother," Zhang Yang said after some thought. "You should go find your father. Regardless of whether you can enter the Zong Family, you probably won't need to work like this anymore."
Suddenly, Wang Dan lowered her head. Such an unexpected temptation was hard for anyone to resist.
"I want to meet him. Can you come with me?" Wang Dan suddenly asked.
"I can't. I can't go back," Zhang Yang extinguished his cigarette and shook his head slowly.
"I don't want to acknowledge him; I just want to see him. Acknowledging him might not bring wealth; it could even bring disaster," Wang Dan said softly.
Zhang Yang was taken aback; he hadn't expected Wang Dan to see things so clearly. One was a wealthy figure, and the other was a woman from a foreign land. If they were to meet, it might not turn out as simply as she suggested. "I really can't go back; you decide what to do about this," Zhang Yang said before leaving the kitchen.
Avoidance only tightened the grip on him. Even thousands of miles away from home, he still encountered people connected to his past. A thought crossed Zhang Yang's mind: "Perhaps I really shouldn't avoid this."
This thought strengthened again when he and Hong Guang entered the Tianfu Club.
As they walked into the private room and saw the charming face of Boss Lady, the scene from the back alley of the Midnight Bar flashed in his mind.
"It feels like an old friend has come," Zhang Yang awkwardly smiled. "I didn't expect you to be Boss Lady."
"You should have guessed; it's all because of you," Boss Lady extended her hand. "Sit!"
Another person saying it's because of me! Zhang Yang felt somewhat helpless. "You two know each other?" Hong Guang sat down beside Zhang Yang, his eyes filled with surprise.
"I never expected Alang to die!" Zhang Yang looked at Boss Lady, imagining Sister Yao from a year ago, and the words slipped out.
"Don't you dare mention him!" Sister Yao—no, Boss Lady—suddenly slammed her hand on the table and stood up. The big men beside her immediately stepped forward, glaring at Zhang Yang.
"You only care about your lover, but drugs have destroyed countless families and taken away many people's loved ones," Zhang Yang said. "I can't claim to be great, but at least I have a clear conscience."
"So you came all the way to Shazhou?" Boss Lady's lips curled slightly as she slowly sat back down.
"It was an accident. I didn't even know where I would end up at first; it just happened that the earliest flight was to Shazhou," Zhang Yang replied. "I know the assassin was hired by your father. Back then, I wasn't going to kill in Shazhou, and now that I'm here, there's even less reason to."
"Looks like my father's death is also related to you?" Boss Lady's pupils constricted, a glint of coldness in her eyes.
"What do you mean by related? I didn't kill him. However, I still want to say that Man Cheng Chuan deserved his fate for all the evil he did," Zhang Yang did not back down, meeting Boss Lady's gaze.
"Good!" Boss Lady suddenly clapped her hands.
Suddenly, the doors on both sides burst open, and a dozen armed Brutal Men rushed in, surrounding Zhang Yang and Hong Guang.
