Chapter 987: Be a Good Person

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Dongli Ao pondered for a moment before picking up his pen and placing it on the paper without hesitation. The butler watched curiously and saw him write—

Hell was right in front of him, and he had to commit a crime to understand it.

Although the Sin Mirror was hanging on the stage, it was still merciful.

Horizontal couplet—

Be a good person.

!!

Seeing this, the butler was stunned. “Young Master…”

Dongli Ao put down his pen and said expressionlessly, “Hang it at the door and let me warn you.”

The butler said, “Why bother?”

Dongli Ao smiled bitterly. He said, “Do you think I don’t know what others are thinking when they see me?” The smile on Dongli Ao’s lips became mocking. He said, “I’m first the son of a drug dealer, then myself.”

“Before I’m really successful, the title of drug dealer’s son will always be with me. When I go in and out, I have to take a few more glances at this sentence and remember my father’s ending as a warning.”

He did not want to go to prison. He wanted to be a good person. He also wanted to marry and have children in the future. He also wanted to have a happy family during the New Year.

The butler’s eyes turned red. “Young Master, it’s been hard on you.”

Dongli Ao stood behind the desk, his body motionless.

There were only two of them for the New Year’s Eve dinner, so there was no need to make too many dishes. He only added a few more dishes than usual. Dongli Ao took a few bites casually and felt bored. He was not interested in watching the Spring Festival Gala. Dongli Ao planned to return to his room to play games when the doorbell suddenly rang.

“It’s so late. Who is it?”

The butler went to open the door but did not see anyone. Instead, he saw a box on the ground.

He hesitated for a moment before bending down to open the box.

There was nothing strange in the box. There was only a hand-knitted sweater and a pair of black and white sneakers. Guessing who the gift was, the butler carried the box into the house.

“Whose?”

Dongli Ao stared at the box in the butler’s hand.

The butler guessed, “There’s no name, but I think the sweater inside is knitted by hand. I guess it might be Miss Wu.”

Dongli Ao fell silent.

The butler thought that Dongli Ao would let him lose this thing, so he was mentally prepared. However, he still asked, “Young Master, do you want to keep this or…”

“Put them in my room.” Dongli Ao actually decided to keep them.

The butler was stunned.

He heard Dongli Ao say, “She’s my only family in this world.” His cousin was also his sister.

The butler was relieved.

“Okay.”

The butler sent the things upstairs when the doorbell suddenly rang again.

Dongli Ao arrived at the entrance and asked the person outside, “Who is it?”

“Happy New Year, Brother Dongli!” Fang Zikai stood at the door and spoke loudly with a smile.

Dongli Ao opened the door.

Outside the door stood Fang Zicheng and his brother.

The brothers were wearing the same red sweaters and gray scarves around their necks. One was fat and the other was thin. Both of them were especially exquisite and cute. The only difference was their eyes.

Fang Zicheng nodded at Dongli Ao and said, “I have a lot of fireworks at home.”

So?

Fang Zikai added, “Go to our house and play with us. My Brother Shan Shan is here too.” Dongli Ao had seen Fang Shan, Fang Zicheng, and the rest playing with skateboards on the road this afternoon.

He was hesitating, not really wanting to go.

Fang Zikai could tell that Dongli Ao was hesitating. He said again, “After the fireworks, we can play Fight the Landlord.”

“You will?”

“I know!” Fang Zikai knew the rules of Fight the Landlord. Knowing was one thing, but knowing how to play was another.

“Wait, I’ll go change.”

Dongli Ao led them into the house and went upstairs to change.

He returned to his room, opened the cabinet, and looked at the clothes in it for a long time. Finally, he chose a shirt, a jacket, a pair of pants, and a pair of brand new socks.

Dongli Ao put on his shirt, opened the box, and took out a gray sweater to put on. The sweater was slightly bigger, and he could probably wear it again next year. There was a panda on the front of the sweater, and the shirt was woven with heart.

Dongli Ao changed into his shoes again.

The shoes were bigger than his feet and could be worn for a while.

Dongli Ao touched the panda on his chest and smiled.

He wore his new clothes and went downstairs. Fang Zikai noticed Dongli Ao’s panda sweater at a glance and asked him, “Where did you buy this sweater? It looks good. Brother, do you want it? Do you want me to ask Dad to buy it for us?”

He wanted it himself, but he wanted to drag his brother down with him.

Fang Zicheng shook his head and chose to protect himself.

Dongli Ao could not help but laugh. “Are there still fireworks?”

“Release!”

Fang Zikai nodded vigorously, as if he was afraid that Dongli Ao would go back on his words.

The three of them returned to the Fang family home. Fang Shan was sitting on a small flower bed in front of the Fang family home with two big bags of fireworks. When he saw them, he got up from the flower bed and walked towards them.

The four of them walked to the small park of the villa.

Tonight, the park allowed them to set off small fireworks, and only tonight.

Fang Shan threw a pile of fireworks on the ground. The few of them chose what they liked. Fang Zikai liked to play, but he was afraid of lighting a fire, so he kept asking his brother to help light the fire. Later on, as they played, it became Fang Zicheng lighting fireworks for Fang Zikai.

They played until nine o’clock before returning to the Fang family home. They planned to hide in Fang Zicheng’s room and play Fight the Landlord. When they returned home, they bumped into Jiang Wei, who was chatting with Jiang Wei on the circular road of the Fang family’s artificial lake.

“Aunt Yuqing, are you chatting with your boyfriend again?” The person who spoke was naturally the talkative Fang Zikai.

Fang Yuqing waved at them. “It’s cold outside. Go back quickly.”

“Okay.”

After watching the four little fellows enter the house, Fang Yuqing said to Jiang Wei, “Children are still the best. They can play with fireworks without restraint.”

Jiang Wei sat in his living room.

Tonight, his house was quite lively. His uncle, Jiang Kang, brought his wife and daughter, Jiang Cheng, to their house for a reunion meal. The family gathered together and chatted, holding red packets in their hands.

Only Jiang Wei was focused on chatting with Fang Yuqing and missed a lot of popularity.

Hearing Fang Yuqing’s words, Jiang Wei’s eyes flashed.

Jiang Wei asked Fang Yuqing, “Do you want to set off fireworks?”

“Yes,” Fang Yuqing said. “Although setting off fireworks pollutes the environment, the moment the fireworks bloom is really beautiful.”

“There will be a firework show in the city at twelve tonight.” But there was only one.

Fang Yuqing sighed. “That’s why I miss the past. I can wait until dawn.”

Jiang Wei suddenly said, “Are you coming out to play?”

This invitation was quite sudden.

Fang Yuqing asked Jiang Wei, “What are we playing?”

“Fireworks.”

Jiang Wei instigated her on the other end of the phone. “Just say that you’re going out to play with me. I’ll pick you up at Brother Yusheng’s house. Let’s go set off fireworks.”

“Aren’t you afraid of being fined?”

There was silence on the other end.

Jiang Wei said shamelessly, “I have money.”

Rich people were so willful!

“You can do it.” Fang Yuqing hung up and looked down at her outfit.
