Mamie Li sighed with mixed emotions: "Tyson Xu, you've been timid your whole life, but today you finally showed some courage for your daughter."
Tyson Xu chuckled amiably.
Pryor Ye, however, said solemnly, "Mom, Dad, you can rest assured. From now on, I am the backbone of our family, and I'll handle anything that comes our way. I've said it before, I'll make Nelly Xu the richest person in Linhai. The Fang family is too insignificant for us to bother with."
Nelly Xu responded indignantly, "Who said we're a family? I haven't agreed yet. Let me tell you, I won't marry you until you stop bragging."
Tyson Xu and Mamie Li couldn't help but laugh and cry. Their son-in-law had such a unique way of bragging, even about becoming the richest person in Linhai.
Pryor Ye, feeling helpless, realized that the foundation of trust between people was essential.
"Mom, Dad, don't worry. When you accepted me, I had already decided to remove all obstacles and elevate you to a high position in society!"
...
A Land Rover slowly drove onto Tu Hai River Bridge and came to a stop. Behind the wheel was Hans Chu. In the back seat, the Four Heavenly Kings sat, motionless.
Gazing at the swift river below, Hans Chu burst into tears. Although he had fantasized about death more than once, facing it now made him panic and full of regret. He was afraid. Regret had completely overwhelmed him.
But it was too late for regrets now. General Ye's command had more authority than the book of life and death. To protect his family, he had no choice but to sacrifice himself.
After adjusting his emotions slightly, he started the car and drove into the Tu Hai River.
On the riverbank, Ruff, cigarette in hand, watched the water's surface. When the ripples subsided, he pressed the walkie-talkie button. "Zhang, get to work."
...
Today was a day worth celebrating for Pryor Ye. Because Tyson Xu and Mamie Li had finally accepted him. Pryor Ye decided to take the old couple to a high-end restaurant. It was not only to celebrate but also to gradually reveal his true strength to them, so they would slowly accept his identity as "General Ye."
Nelly Xu enthusiastically agreed to Pryor Ye's proposal to go out for dinner. "I agree, I agree. It's perfect for celebrating our success in taking over a few factories today."
Tyson Xu and Mamie Li had no objections either.
The family of four went downstairs. However, just as they reached the stairs, Tyson Xu's expression suddenly changed, and he said, "Let's go back..."
But as soon as they turned around, a voice stopped them. "Tyson Xu, hold on!"
Tyson Xu sighed in disappointment and stopped in his tracks. The person who called him was Captain Zhang from the property security.
With a friendly smile, Tyson Xu approached him. "Captain Zhang, what a coincidence. Do you need something?"
Captain Zhang seemed a bit angry. "Old Xu, do you think I'm looking for you?"
Tyson Xu chuckled nervously, feeling embarrassed.
Pryor Ye frowned and asked, "Captain Zhang, what's going on?"
Captain Zhang explained, "What else can it be? We've told you so many times not to park your car in the fire lane, but you just don't listen."
Tyson Xu hastily offered Captain Zhang a cigarette. "Sorry, Captain Zhang, we parked the car in a hurry today and didn't notice. We'll make sure to change it next time."
Captain Zhang glanced at the cigarette Tyson Xu offered but didn't accept it. It was clear that he looked down on a ten-yuan pack of cigarettes. He coldly said, "If apologies were enough, everyone in the community would be parking here. According to the regulations, it's a 1,000 yuan fine. Hurry up and pay."
Ah! Mamie Li felt a pang of pain. 1,000 yuan was enough for groceries to last a month at home. It was painful to part with this money just like that.
Mamie Li pleaded desperately, "Captain Zhang, please be lenient. Next time... Well, if Tyson Xu dares to do this again, I'll personally break his legs!"
"I think we can let this fine slide," she added hastily.
