Ten Years in Prison for Someone Else, Then I Became King of the Pearl River

In 1983, at Xiguan Gate in Yangcheng, twenty-two-year-old Lin Yiming took the blame for a brother and went to prison for ten years over a murder.

Before his imprisonment, he was the debt collector everyone at Shabu Night Market called "Brother Ming." On his back was a Pearl River dragon tattooed by Elder Shen himself.

After he was locked up, Old Scar told him on his deathbed: Beneath that charity hall lies something his father traded his life to protect.

Ten years later, he walks out of prison to find the charity hall turned into a construction site, his brothers become rivals, and the woman he loves has vanished without a trace.

Jiang Zhao hands him a contract. "Sign it, and the charity hall will still be yours."

Lin Yiming smiles. His collar slips open, revealing the dragon's tail on his back. "I've got a strange temper. I can't stand seeing people treated like merchandise."

The waters of the Pearl River run deep.
