Prologue: "You're ruthless!" Author: Su Yun

summer.

The scorching sun had been blazing for days, the intense heat almost suffocating, but for Kim Sun-ah, this summer had completely changed her destiny.

Today is her seventeenth birthday, and also the day her parents were laid to rest.

Family affection has always been a luxury for her. She never knew what her parents meant in her life; they didn't love her at all, so she didn't love them either. This seventeen-year-long parent-child relationship with the Jin family was now even.

A month ago, a plane crash took away her parents without warning. When she learned of this terrible news, she did not feel any sadness, but rather a sense of relief.

Kim Sun-ah is a genius girl with an IQ of 180. The business and wealth left by her parents are more than enough to support her to live a life of luxury. From now on, she can live more freely and completely take control of her own life.

She sat on a stone bench in the park, her expression haughty, like a statue in an art gallery.

The power of the sun gradually weakened, and dark clouds slowly enveloped the sky, turning it gloomy. The next second, a torrential downpour began. This sudden chill caught Jin Shan'er's attention. She frowned as she looked at the large raindrops hitting her hair, shoulders, and long legs. She reached out and scooped up the raindrops, watching them gradually gather into a small handful in her palm. At that moment, an idea suddenly flashed through her mind, and she immediately stood up without hesitation, facing the heavy rain.

She tilted her head back, letting the raindrops fall on her delicate and beautiful face. Her wet dress clung to her shapely curves. She felt the cool, moist touch of the water droplets and realized that it had been a long time since she had enjoyed such a sensation. She had also forgotten that she used to be a girl who loved to take walks in the rain.

The afternoon thunderstorm came suddenly and violently. In the heavy rain, many pedestrians hurriedly ran past, and Zhang Boxuan was one of them who rushed to find shelter. He strode across the park path and was about to run into the pavilion when he suddenly caught sight of a girl standing alone on the grass, getting soaked in the rain.

Taken aback, he ran to her without thinking, took off his coat, and gently draped it over her shoulders—

"Hey, you'll get sick if you get soaked in the rain like that..."

Their eyes met, and Jin Shan'er's moist and delicate face stirred something within Zhang Boxuan.

Is this girl crying?

He chose to remain silent and not ask any further questions.

Taking advantage of the heavy rain, Kim Sun-ah shed her mask of strength. After all, she was just a seventeen-year-old girl. Even though she possessed unparalleled intelligence and wealth, she had never received care and love from her parents. No one loved her!

She felt so sad... but the gentle gestures of the stranger in front of her stopped her tears, which were mixed with raindrops.

It turns out that kindness and warmth truly exist in the world.

The young man's unintentional actions made her feel a tenderness she had never experienced before.

That warmth, like a seed carried by the wind, quietly fell into her dark and lonely heart, giving rise to a new courage.

Zhang Boxuan pulled her along and ran into the pavilion to take shelter from the rain. He even took out a handkerchief to wipe her face, which was indistinguishable between rain and tears.

"Thank you!" she said softly, taking off her coat and handing it back to him. Her sharp eyes caught the name of a medical school embroidered on the coat.

Zhang, Bo, Xuan. She remembered him completely.

"Remember, don't get caught in the rain again. Don't gamble with your health!" He said sternly to her, then smiled gently.

Looking into Jin Shan'er's bright yet melancholy eyes, Zhang Boxuan felt a strange sense of longing well up inside him. He suppressed this strange feeling, smiled, waved to her, and then turned to leave.

Kim Sun-ah gazed at his imposing figure, lost in thought.

What a gentle person!

The heavy rain brought them together briefly, and she believed that to him, she was just a passerby in his life, someone he wouldn't remember. But she was determined to have him, no matter in what "form" it took…

Chapter 1 "You're Ruthless!" Author: Su Yun

Zhang Boxuan—he is both an angel and a devil.

By day, he is a beloved hospital director; by night, he is a powerful and fearsome underworld figure—the successor of the Red Gang. However, this secret remains unknown to anyone.

Zhang Boxuan has a happy family that everyone envies. His parents are deeply in love. His father is successful in his career and enthusiastic about public welfare, while his mother is virtuous and wise, and maintains her appearance and figure well, showing no signs of aging.

Zhang Boxuan followed the same medical path as his father. After graduating from a well-known top medical school in China, he went abroad to study. At a young age, he easily obtained his diploma with excellent grades, which became a rare miracle in the medical field. After returning to China, he was immediately hired as the president of Changyuan Hospital.

Zhang Wenhu is a proponent of eugenics, always saying that human genes have a great influence on the next generation, and that the Zhang family's genes are definitely of superior quality, so that each generation has produced "heroes among men".

But one day, Zhang Boxuan learned a secret and realized that the truth was not so.

The Zhang family is a well-known wealthy family in China. Bo Xuan's grandfather, Zhang Wansheng, had two sons: the elder brother was named Zhang Wenbao, and the younger brother was named Zhang Wenhu. Zhang Wenhu was Bo Xuan's father.

These two brothers had vastly different personalities and life experiences from birth. The younger brother was always outstanding, consistently ranking first in his studies and eventually becoming a renowned doctor in the country. The older brother, however, was rebellious and violent, expelled from junior high school, even running away from home, and ultimately leading a tragic end.

Zhang Wansheng was utterly disappointed in his eldest son and announced that he was severing ties with him. From then on, Zhang Wenbao was no longer a member of the family, and Zhang Boxuan never heard his uncle mentioned by his father.

It wasn't until his grandfather passed away at the age of ninety that Zhang Boxuan met Zhang Wenbao for the first time. He went to the funeral hall to pay respects to his father, Zhang Wansheng, whom he hadn't seen for nearly thirty years. By then, Zhang Wansheng had become the powerful and influential leader of the Red Gang, known as "Leopard."

That was also the first time Zhang Wenbao met his nephew Zhang Boxuan.

Bo Xuan looks so much like his deceased only son!

A look of grief immediately appeared on Zhang Wenbao's face. He had always believed that it was because of his many sins that his only son had died young, and that he had killed his son.

He was getting old, and his life of wandering was coming to an end. He had to find a successor for the Red Gang as soon as possible, and the person he had his eye on was Zhang Boxuan, who was capable, intelligent, and related to him by blood.

Zhang Boxuan never expected that his first meeting with his uncle at the funeral would later make him "Leopard Master's" successor and the leader of the Red Gang.
