Chapter 963 - 955: Who Exactly Is It
Those days were the most painful days for Liu Rui at the time. While other kids were still having sweet dreams in bed, and by other kids, he meant his twin sister Liu Sisi, he had to reluctantly get up to his father’s stern reprimands.
Liu Rui also asked his father why he alone had to wake up early every day to practice kung fu. His father said, "Liu Rui, you must always remember, you are a man, and a man’s responsibility is to protect his family. I’m a man, so I must protect you all. When you grow up, I will be old, and it will be your turn to protect your sister and family."
At that time, Liu Rui didn’t fully understand these words; he just remembered that he had to be a man to protect everyone. Now, it was his turn to protect his father.
Perhaps the act of snatching food from these people also had his father’s contribution in it, Liu Rui thought as he looked at these pitiful people. But there was no way around it—a world of the survival of the fittest. This society is cruel. The only way to prevent such situations is to make oneself stronger, strong enough that others can’t do anything to you. At that time, you would have succeeded.
After that, Liu Rui walked forward again. He now had a general understanding of this prison. He found that within this prison, there were various factions standing in great numbers. This situation was no different from the outside world. Perhaps everyone had been social big shots outside for too long, so when they got in here, they suddenly couldn’t adjust and thus needed some followers to form a faction.
Perhaps Liu Rui’s expression was terrifying enough, so no one dared to step forward and cause trouble. Liu Rui was quite satisfied with the current situation. If someone really came up to him, he’d have to exert effort to subdue them. Although Liu Rui was confident in his kung fu, no one in here should be able to beat him.
Suddenly, he heard someone whispering. He didn’t usually eavesdrop, but he happened to hear the name "Liu Bailong." It seemed like it was the first time he had heard this name from others in so many years. He stood frozen, suddenly unable to recall whose familiar yet unfamiliar name it was.
Outside, because of his father’s affairs, those in the know were tactful not to mention his father. His father’s old friends respectfully called him Big Brother, and "Bai Long" seemed to be a name only his grandfather would call him.
After regaining his senses, Liu Rui pretended not to care while listening to their conversation: "I heard Bai Long and his men are coming to the South District tomorrow. I reckon that Old Bing’s group is going to get it."
Another person asked, "What on earth happened? How did Bai Long get involved with Old Bing’s gang? They usually mind their own business. But if you ask me, Old Bing’s lot indeed needs to be dealt with. Just the other day, they came over and robbed our food, acting all arrogant. Thinking about it makes me angry."
