Episode 9 recap: Zhong Yu Nan received support from Lord Lu, which gave him a large territory.
Zhong Yu Nan received support from Lord Lu, which gave him a large territory.Zhong Yu Nan had been staying in the police station for several days. Xu Wei Biao, Zhang Peng, Lin Zhi Hua, and Wang Lei knew he would be released today, so they waited intentionally at the entrance of the police station.
After waiting for a long time and feeling thirsty, Xu Wei Biao asked Zhang Peng to buy some ice popsicles from the opposite side. However, Zhang Peng had no money in his pocket. Lin Zhi Hua took out all his money, but it was only enough to buy two popsicles. They suggested sharing them, but Zhang Peng came up with a quick idea. He secretly threw the money into the donation box of an elderly man while the man was taking the popsicles. The man heard the sound of coins but didn't see the money clearly. He was unhappy, but Zhang Peng pointed at two one-cent coins and claimed that he threw them in. Helpless, the man reluctantly gave them four popsicles. While they were eating, Zhang Xiu Ji, who came to pick up Lord Lu from the police station, drove by with several cars, raising a cloud of dust. The four of them quickly turned around, mocking those wealthy people and continuing to wait for Zhong Yu Nan.
Sun Hai Jie wanted to extract useful clues from Zhong Yu Nan, but Zhong Yu Nan remained silent. Sun Hai Jie had no choice but to let Zhong Yu Nan go and identify the body. Zhong Yu Nan knew that Zhong Pan Nan had been burned beyond recognition, but he still asked someone to uncover the white cloth covering Zhong Pan Nan's body. He wanted to take one last look and bid farewell to Zhong Pan Nan.
Finally, Xu Wei Biao saw Zhong Yu Nan coming out, and he and the others waved at him. Only then did Zhong Yu Nan show a hint of a smile, and the gloom in his heart dissipated. When Zhong Er was alive, every time the mischievous Zhong Yu Nan caused trouble, Zhong Er would burn everything in Zhong Yu Nan's room. Zhong Pan Nan would stand by and plead for Zhong Yu Nan. The next day, Zhong Er would buy similar things for Zhong Yu Nan again.
Zhang Peng was heartbroken when he saw Zhong Yu Nan burning his brand-new clothes. He felt that rich kids didn't know how to live a practical life. But then, to Zhang Peng's greater dismay, Zhong Yu Nan casually burned his guitar. Zhong Yu Nan remembered those friends who refused to help when Zhong Er had an accident. He decided to hold a grand funeral for Zhong Er and Zhong Pan Nan and make those people kneel and kowtow.
In order to establish himself, Zhong Yu Nan made a promise to everyone that the Zhong family's territory would be decided by a few brothers. Under Xu Wei Biao's urging, Wang Lei proposed that as long as he was given five hundred yuan, he would follow Zhong Yu Nan. At that moment, they felt happy that they could stay together as brothers.
After Jie Zi and Zhong Er had accidents, their territories, which had been seized by He Er Qing, were now lost by him. These territories became a piece of fat that all the bosses coveted. Wanhe Hall held another meeting, and the bosses argued endlessly, each wanting to gain an advantage. When Lord Lu arrived, he scolded the group of people directly.
Under the support of Xu Wei Biao, Wang Lei, Lin Zhi Hua, and Zhang Peng, Zhong Yu Nan took over Wanhe Hall, indicating that the Zhong family was not completely extinct. This statement made various bosses who wanted to take advantage of the situation unhappy, but they had no choice but to accept it.
Lord Lu redistributed the territories and gave Zhong Yu Nan a larger one than the Zhong family had before. The bosses present were displeased, but when Lord Lu said, "If it weren't for these kids taking care of He Er Qing, they would all be bathing in the Yellow Springs," it silenced everyone. Zhang Xiu Ji never expected that Zhong Yu Nan would have a day of resurgence. He finally drank the tea to acknowledge the matter and threw the teacup on the table before leaving in a huff.
After Zhang Xiu Ji left, Zhong Yu Nan sprayed out the tea in his mouth, and everyone knew it was because the tea was too bitter, causing them to burst into laughter. With territory, Zhong Yu Nan had money, so he took Xu Wei Biao, Zhang Peng, Lin Zhi Hua, and Wang Lei to go shopping. They all wore the latest fashionable clothes, sunglasses, and carried radios, strutting confidently on the streets, attracting envy from passersby.
That night, the group went to a restaurant for dinner. Because they ordered a lot of food and drinks, the restaurant manager suspected they couldn't pay the bill and asked for payment in advance. Xu Wei Biao was displeased and called Zhang Xiu Ji when he found out the restaurant was under his territory. Zhong Yu Nan took this opportunity to ask Zhang Xiu Ji to arrange a funeral for his father. Zhang Xiu Ji was reluctant and afraid of Wang Lei, so he had no choice but to swallow his anger.
Wang Wei Guo had previously reported Zhong Yu Nan and the others to He Er Qing, which caused them a lot of trouble. This time, Zhong Yu Nan didn't spare him either and asked him to pay 50,000 yuan for Zhong Er's funeral. Through these actions, Zhong Yu Nan managed to offend all the bosses.
Lin Zhi Hua had been hanging out with Xu Wei Biao and the others recently, which had greatly affected his academic performance. He was starting to long for a normal life but couldn't let go of his brothers. Wang Lei realized that Lin Zhi Hua was not like them and advised him to focus on studying and get into a good university.
The director is definitely eccentric. They want to portray the authenticity of that era, talk about the law, and give the protagonist of the TV drama a halo. Those few truant kids got into several fights and didn't get caught.
Even though they suffered serious injuries, they were completely fine the next day. It's amazing how they can recover from a leg gunshot wound and be back on their feet in just two days. Isn't that miraculous?
