He was once a retired special forces soldier who licked blood at the tip of his knife. His sharp edge has faded and he just wants to be an ordinary delivery boy to protect his seriously ill mother. But life didn't give him a way out - sky-high medical expenses burdened him, loan sharks smashed his car and surrounded him, and his close relatives looked on coldly, forcing him to the edge of jumping off the building.
Desperate, he knelt down to accept the life-saving money thrown by the gang, and stepped into the dark world without seeing the light of day with his iron blood.
In the Yilianhui, he endured the humiliation and endured the heavy burden of fighting, and was bullied by others; the cruel oppression of his second-in-command Lin Xiao, the ambiguous protection of the mysterious proprietress Su Wan, the difficulty in distinguishing the truth from the truth of the leading brother Chen Cripple, the coercion and use of the criminal police officer Zhao, and the deadly trap hidden by his brother Long Qi, all strangled him layer by layer.
Undercover suspicions, life and death situations, and family betrayals follow one after another. The desperate situation he thought was an accident was actually a ten-year plan; the enemy he identified was an enemy, but he was a secret guardian; the mystery of his father's disappearance he was pursuing turned out to be a shocking scam that subverted everything.
When the truth tears apart the mask, Qianlong finally returns to the dark side.
It was his close relatives who forced him into the abyss, his old friends who protected him, and his biological father who he thought had disappeared long ago who controlled the overall situation.
From a delivery boy to a gangster, from a forbearing soldier to a chess player, the blood of veterans has never run cold. On this dark road of narrow escape, there is no turning back, only fighting to the end.
