If you want to be a good person, find Huadi

The next morning, sunlight streamed through the window into the room. Liu Yi, as usual, rose early and began his two daily routines: a ten-kilometer run, followed by a focused Xingyiquan practice. Afterward, he showered, had breakfast, and then began reviewing his lessons. As long as he had nothing else to do, these were Liu Yi's daily routines. After gaining admission to Hong Kong University, he might not study daily, but he would never neglect his training. After all, a healthy body was the foundation for future endeavors.

Time passed quietly, and in the blink of an eye, it was ten o'clock in the morning. Liu Yi looked at his watch, secretly calculating the time difference with Canada, and felt that now was a good time to call Lei Luo to discuss the matter of the Twelve Young Master. At this time, the phone rang.

"Hello? Who is this?" Liu Yi asked puzzledly after answering the phone.

"Haha, Huadi! It's me, Ting!" Guo Zhenting's hearty laughter came from the other end of the phone.

Hearing the other party's voice, Liu Yi couldn't help but smile: "It turns out to be Brother Ting! What can you do for me?"

"Hey, how dare I give you any orders! Even my father has to address you as 'leader' when he sees you, how dare I, as your son, act rashly?" Guo Zhenting said half-jokingly.

Liu Yi quickly responded, "Brother Ting, please don't say that! I'm just a lowly thug. I'm lucky to be appreciated by Uncle Nan and other seniors. If you tease me like this again, I'll be so ashamed!"

"Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore! But having said that, you are indeed the candidate recognized by those respected people. Our Guo family will have to rely on you in the future! By the way, please come to my house in a few days. I want to formally introduce you, the uncle, to my children. Also, are you free tonight? I need you to accompany me to a cocktail party." Guo Zhenting invited sincerely.

"Okay!" Liu Yi responded without hesitation, but then he launched into a flurry of questions: "What kind of cocktail party is this? Who will be attending? And what kind of preparations do I need to make?" It was clear that despite his full agreement, he knew deep down that Guo Zhenting would never invite him to some ordinary cocktail party for no apparent reason. There had to be some hidden meaning or purpose behind it.

Facing Liu Yi's rapid-fire questions, Guo Zhenting seemed quite calm and composed. He raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing an imperceptible smile, and then responded slowly: "Oh, I didn't expect you to know so much about this kind of thing! In fact, originally this cocktail party was the kind that I could go to or not. However, last night, my old man accidentally got drunk and started talking nonsense with a group of old guys. Somehow, he mentioned you, a young, promising and talented man. Now that's good, the other families don't seem to be convinced by this, so my old man I've been ordered to bring you along tonight to make an appearance. As for once we're there... hehe, you don't have to be too reserved. Eat when you're supposed to, drink when you're supposed to. If you feel like yelling at someone you don't like, that's fine. Even if someone dares to start a fight, you don't have to hold back. Just go ahead and fight them. In short, just let loose. I'll have someone pick you up this afternoon so you can pick out some clothes. Hmm... I'll probably need to set aside about two hours."

After hearing this, Liu Yi breathed a sigh of relief and replied with a smile: "Okay, Brother Ting! I will stay at home this afternoon, just let them come to see me directly. That's settled for now, see you in the evening!" After that, both parties hung up the phone.

It seemed like he didn't have time to look for Twelve Young Master tonight, but even so, he still called Lei Luo. Through their conversation, Lei Luo learned that Hua Di would actively seek out more people like them and look forward to some wonderful events. If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't return to Hong Kong, Lei Luo would have been unable to suppress his inner desire and eager to experience that feeling for himself. After all, what that old man He Xin said made him itch! However, after a struggle, he finally managed to suppress his strong curiosity and decided to wait patiently for Hua Di to find the right opportunity before inviting him to Canada.

As for the matter concerning Twelve Young Master that Wah Di mentioned, it was a piece of cake for Lei Luo. In fact, Twelve Young Master was indeed an important chess piece that he had left in Hong Kong back then. Although Lei Luo did not specifically send people to assist Twelve Young Master in the early stages of his development, there were two reasons for this: first, this move was intended to test Twelve Young Master's personal strength; second, it was because Lei Luo had no shortage of available people at the time. Although he was in a difficult situation of being wanted at the time, one must know that the entire Hong Kong underworld had benefited from the care of him, the Chief Chinese Inspector, for many years, and naturally there were many loyal younger brothers willing to serve him. It was not until Twelve Young Master had made a name for himself that he arranged for people to help, and only then was Twelve Young Master able to unify Temple Street.

In reality, even without Wah Di mentioning it, Lei Luo had already made up his mind to hand over the vast power he had painstakingly built up in Hong Kong to Wah Di. However, Jojo's parents, surprisingly, had a different view. They were reluctant to see their precious daughter's fiancé involved in such complications. After all, Jojo's previous kidnapping was a nightmare that still haunted them. After years of hard work, the couple simply wanted their daughter to live a stable and happy life. Therefore, they firmly opposed the idea of ​​Wah Di becoming entangled with the underworld again.

Unfortunately, by now, the situation is clearly beyond the control of Jojo's parents. Huadi has embarked on a unique journey of his own choosing, a path he firmly believes in and is determined to pursue. Faced with this situation, Lei Luo knows his only option is to do his utmost to support and help Huadi in his limited time, ensuring his safety as much as possible. Throughout history, those who aspire to great things have inevitably encountered numerous challenges, but they must never give up easily due to fear. Lei Luo firmly believes that Huadi possesses the ability and courage to overcome any adversity and ultimately become a hero that all Chinese people can be proud of!

That afternoon, Guo Zhenting arranged for the Guo family's chief steward to personally accompany Huadi to try on clothes, a clear sign of the Guo family's deep regard for Huadi. In just two hours, Liu Yi tried on over ten outfits suitable for various occasions, finally concluding his lengthy fitting process. By this point, Liu Yi was exhausted, nearly collapsing. However, just as he was happily convinced that everything was finally over, a renowned tailor, rumored to have served the Eagle Kingdom's royal family, entered the room like a ghost. Without hesitation, he grabbed Liu Yi and began a more detailed physical measurement.

After taking precise measurements, Liu Yi suddenly realized that only the outfit he would wear tonight could be taken away. None of the other exquisite garments he had carefully selected would be allowed to leave with him. Even the temporary outfit he had been given to wear tonight was merely a temporary fix. This master tailor, charging exorbitant fees, would personally tailor every piece of his lavish clothing for daily wear. Such extravagance was truly baffling! After all, clothes are merely possessions. Was such elaborate craftsmanship truly necessary? Was such extravagance truly necessary? It was a blatant waste of resources! Even Liu Yi, who had lived through two previous lives, both of which were fabulously wealthy, always upheld the virtue of thriftiness and frugality, always scorning such superficial, formalistic formalities. On the contrary, the women around him seemed to attach great importance to the details of clothing, jewelry, and social etiquette. However, they never dared to show this in front of Liu Yi, after all, he was extremely disgusted with this kind of formalism.

After trying on clothes, Liu Yi quickly found a tea restaurant and enjoyed a bowl of noodles. Facing the mixed looks from the diners and waitstaff, Liu Yi ate with remarkable ease, feeling like this was life. As he sat at the table, enjoying his meal, he was surprised to find that, despite the already packed and bustling restaurant, a circle of empty seats remained around him; no one dared to sit near him. The reason was simply that Liu Yi's clothing was clearly expensive. If something like soup had accidentally spilled on his clothes, the consequences would have been disastrous—after all, the hefty compensation bill was far beyond the reach of ordinary people. Fortunately, Liu Yi ate with remarkable speed, devouring the food in front of him like a whirlwind. Amidst the sighs and sighs of the crowd, Liu Yi hurriedly stood up and left the tea restaurant.

Night fell, and the clock struck seven o'clock. Liu Yi had already reunited with Guo Zhenting, and together they boarded a car and headed for the reception. On the way, Guo Zhenting couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, "A man needs clothes to look his best, just as a fine horse needs a good saddle to show its prowess! Huadi, dressed so meticulously, could be the second generation of a super-rich family!" It was true. Huadi was already handsome, and with Liu Yi's relentless exercise since his rebirth, his physique had become even more muscular and toned, like a flawless sculpture. Even more delightful to Liu Yi was that, perhaps due to his long practice of Xingyiquan, he had reached the so-called "qi sensation" state, which had caused him to grow even taller, now reaching 176cm. As a result, Liu Yi, dressed in this luxurious formal attire, looked even more dignified and graceful.

"Brother Ting, you are really praising me too much! Compared with you, I am simply worlds apart! I am just a small-time gangster. If you want to say what advantages I have... hehe, maybe I am just a little more handsome than you, a little taller, and a little more muscular. Hahaha!" Liu Yi laughed and teased Guo Zhenting with a playful smile.

Hearing this, Guo Zhenting laughed and scolded angrily, "You are such an ignorant fellow! Is this all you can achieve? A little sunshine will make you shine! But, to be honest, Huadi, you must never underestimate yourself like this again! From now on, don't always say the word "thug"! That's just your past experience. Everyone has a past. We all appreciate your hard work and are well aware of your abilities. I firmly believe that in time, you will definitely be able to ascend to the position of Chief Executive, and you will be an extremely outstanding Chief Executive, leading our Hong Kong to flourish and soar! By then, you will surely become a great hero respected and loved by all the people of Hong Kong!"

Guo Zhenting spoke these words with extraordinary seriousness, a break from his usual lighthearted and humorous tone. He sincerely hoped that this way, he would let this young man know that he would always and unwaveringly support him, no matter what the circumstances. At the same time, he also hoped that he would not dwell on his humble background. After all, appearances are not enough to judge a person, and the road ahead is still long! With unremitting efforts, one will eventually achieve extraordinary success.

"Okay, Brother Ting, I understand. Actually, I was just joking in front of you just now. I have never lacked confidence! Please rest assured, Brother Ting, I will never let you down!" Liu Yi responded seriously, his tone firm and full of determination.

As the two chatted, the car slowly approached and finally stopped in front of the gates of a magnificent manor. Liu Yi's eyes widened, examining it closely. The manor's vastness was beyond his imagination. As far as he knew, there seemed to be no manor of this scale in the entire Hong Kong region. Even the residence of a prominent figure like Guo Yingnan was merely a villa complex of a modest size. Yet, what lay before him was a genuine, authentic manor!

Liu Yi couldn't help but sigh. It turns out our previous understanding wasn't always entirely accurate or reliable! Those with special power and status were always capable of doing things that shocked and inconceivable to ordinary people. Perhaps only by experiencing it firsthand could one truly understand the mystery behind it.

When the car stopped, Guo Zhenting got out first, then helped Huadi down as well. He then turned to Huadi and patiently explained, "The owner of this place is extremely sensitive to the smell of gasoline and can't tolerate it in his estate. Therefore, anyone visiting must use his custom-made transportation—either a rickshaw or a sedan chair. So, which method do you plan to use to enter the estate?"

"The life of the rich is beyond the imagination of ordinary people. I'll take a rickshaw." Just like that, Guo Zhenting and Huadi got on the rickshaw parked at the door. At the same time, their extremely luxurious Rolls-Royce was quietly parked in the parking lot not far away.

"The owner of this mansion is named 'Na'. Back in the Qing Dynasty, their ancestors held the high position of Governor-General of Guangdong and Guangxi. They are said to be direct descendants of the Empress Dowager Cixi's family and have close ties with the renowned East India Company. Since Hong Kong's fall to the British mainland, this family has officially settled here, a residence that spans 150 years. Their ties to the British mainland are exceptionally close, with successive Governors of Hong Kong personally visiting them. As for their specific business, you might want to ask Lei Luo; he's sure to be well-informed about their methods of making money. Furthermore, many members of this family hold important positions in key departments like the Department of Justice and the Legislative Council." Sitting in the rickshaw, Guo Zhenting softly recounted the Na family's history to Hua Di beside him. However, this remark was merely superficial, as the family's servants were behind them, pushing the rickshaw forward. Liu Yi nodded in understanding and gently patted Guo Zhenting's arm, indicating that he had understood the deep meaning.
