Taxi which 'Yang Tie' had boarded with the old man finally came towards the 'Swad Restaurant' where 'Yang Tie' worked. And he got off there. He didn't want to have unnecessary trouble. Since he had already offended that gangster, he wanted to have low profile for now.
Just as he got down , old man got out.
"young man" (old man) called "Yang Tie'
"yes old man" "Yang Tie' spoke confusedly. He didn't understand what the old man wanted to say. Probably thank you.
"don't call me old man. my name Song Yan. Called me grandpa 'Yan' if you like" old man 'Yan ' spoke.
"ok 'Grandpa Song'" (Yang Tie) replied
"what is your name kid?" (old man Yan) asked.
"Ehh! My name is " (Yang Tie) .
" 'Yang Tie' nice name. what do you do 'Yang' " old man 'Yan' asked out of curiosity.
"I have high school freshmen ceremony opening in nearly 3 months" (Yang Tie) replied.
"where ?" old man 'Yan' asked.
"it's at XX XX ""Yang Tie' replied.
"good . 'thank you kid'. You have really helped me.i cannot tell you why but you have a great merit to the "Song' Family" (Yang Tie) spoke .
"Ehh! I have not done anything really. it's ok" "Yang Tie' spoke.
Driver of the taxi who had heard this had his jaws dropped. It was the 'Song..Song' family he was thinking. "Yang Tie' had his 'Electric Eyes' closed so he did not saw this.
"kid you have really helped me . if you need any help 'come' to the 'Song Family' estate and show this card. I am the 'Butler' of the Song family" Old man 'Yan' gave (Yang Tie) a shining silver card.
Driver's eyes were drooling. it's the… silver card of the 'Song' family.
"ohh!" "Yang Tie' casually took the card and put in his family. he is poor orphan so he does not the power distribution and riches of the city. So he does not know much about the importance of the ccard.
"ok grandpa about taxi… fair...?" (Yang Tie) was a poor bimbo and he just got a pay check so he was little reluctant.
"ohh1 don't worry I will take care of it" (old man Yan) spoke.
" really? Thankx!" (Yang Tie)
Just as he was about to leave?
"'Yang' you are injured. How about coming with me to the hospital for a checkup?" (old man Yan)
"No need, Grandpa. I'm good. Bye!" Yang Tie said, eager to leave as quickly as possible. He had already been through a lot lately and had just been discharged from the hospital. The last thing he wanted was to visit another one—he didn't want to stay here any longer.
"what a good kid. Let's see what future awaits.. it seems like we will meet again soon…" (old man Yan) exclaimed.
This was the first time he had seen someone so calm after hearing the name "Song Family." Even people with no influence knew about them. In this city, they were practically a legend.
What (Yang Tie) did not know at time was that the card which he kept casually inside his pocket will be helping a great deal to him in the future.
And What (Old man Yan) did not was that casually giving this card to 'Yang Tie' is going to bring great turbulences to the 'Song Family; who have kept low key for so many years.
He got into the taxi and went towards…

Inside the taxi somewhere far away
"old man where should we go?" driver asked.
"you already know right? 'Song' estate" old man calmly spoke.
"ok" driver spoke but he was having shivers. This is his first time driving ther
The Song family was one of the three mysterious families that ruled the city. Everyone knew their name. They controlled half the city and were far more powerful than the other two families combined. Their influence extended beyond the city's borders, reaching places few could imagine. No one in the city dared to challenge them—they were simply untouchable.
The Song family wasn't just powerful; it was one of the four backbones of the city, a pillar of its very foundation. They even had a special title: The Founder. It was said they had existed since the city was first established—a truly ancient and aristocratic lineage.
In fact, only two others in the city would even think of standing against them. Yet even those two lacked complete confidence in winning a war with the Songs. The family was more than influential—it was a giant.
….
"Yang Tie' has reached his home.
