Hong Kong: Rise of the Kings.

Chapter 1079 1065 [Even a tiger won’t eat its own cubs]

As Chung Ju-yung said, Cho Jeong-sook definitely followed the wrong person.

At that time, Cao Jingshu was 18 years old, in the prime of her life. With her extraordinary beauty and superb acting skills, she dominated the Korean film industry and was hailed as the new generation of film queen successor.

At the wrap party after filming of "The Story of Sim Chung of Joseon", she met Chung Ju-yung, who was in his forties.

At that time, Chung Ju-yung was running around for the Hyundai Group, working hard day and night to make the company grow and develop.

It was rare for him to participate in an entertainment activity. Under the influence of alcohol, Chung Ju-yung vaguely saw a pure and beautiful girl walking towards him.
Early the next morning, when he woke up from his sleep, he found someone lying next to him. That person was Cao Jingshu.

Cao Jingshu herself was not the kind of person who could sleep with anyone casually. She had drunk too much that night and was also fascinated by Chung Ju-yung's strong aura. The atmosphere was right, the time was right, and the fate was right.
Since then it has been out of control.

For Chung Ju-yung, all this was just a show. He was a family man with status and position in South Korea. How could he fall in love with a small movie star?
For Cao Jingshu, this is her first love. She entered the entertainment industry ignorantly, and fell in love with a family man ignorantly. Now she is even more ignorant to be devoted to him.

It was not until Cao Jingshu became pregnant and Chung Ju-yung gave her a sum of money to abort the child that Cao Jingshu realized that it had been her one-sided wish and had been in vain.

What Chung Ju-yung didn't expect was that although Cho Jeong-sook appeared weak on the outside, she was actually a strong woman on the inside.

Not only did she not follow Chung Ju-yung's advice to abort the child, but she also found a deserted place and secretly gave birth to the child, and named the child Cao Tai.

It is obvious that Cho Jeong-sook did not want to take advantage of Chung Ju-yung and even did not use the word "Zheng" when naming her child.

Because of having and raising children, Cao Jingshu, who was less than 20 years old, announced her official retirement from the film industry. This news caused a huge sensation at the time. After all, Cao Jingshu's popularity in the film and television industry was unmatched by ordinary people. She gave up such a promising career path, and everyone speculated what kind of changes she had encountered.

When Chung Ju-yung learned that Cho Jeong-sook had retired from the entertainment industry, he thought that the woman had come to her senses and was secretly proud of herself. She believed that she would not bother him again. However, he never expected that Cho Jeong-sook would soon come to him with her child.

In fact, if it had not been absolutely necessary, with Cho Jung-sook's strong personality, she would never have asked Chung Ju-yung for help. Unfortunately, Cho Tai was born with congenital heart occlusion shortly after birth and had to undergo surgery.

However, this type of surgery is not only expensive, but most importantly, the surgeon must be very skilled.

Looking throughout South Korea, there is simply no such expert doctor. Moreover, in order to raise a child, Cho Jung-sook, who has long retired from the film industry, cannot afford such high medical expenses.

In the end, for the sake of her children, Cao Jingshu had to find Chung Ju-yung.

It is conceivable how complicated Chung Ju-yung's feelings were when he learned that he had an illegitimate child who was already two years old.

As an entrepreneur and a strong man, he was a responsible man. Faced with the hungry child, Chung Ju-yung finally chose to accept him. No matter what, this little life in front of him was his own blood.

Since then, Cao Tai officially changed his name to Zheng Tai, but as an illegitimate child, it was not until last year that Zheng Zhouyong officially included him in the family tree and registered him.

Zheng Ju Yung had complicated feelings towards this illegitimate son. He was disappointed with him, but also felt that he owed too much to him and his mother. Even though he included Zheng Tai in the household registration, Zheng Tai was still ridiculed and mocked by his eldest and second brothers. He was never happy in the Zheng family.

Chung Ju-yung went up to the second floor alone.

The maid in charge of serving Cho Jung-sook was sweeping the floor in the corridor. She had noticed a figure walking up the stairs a long time ago. Only when she saw Chung Ju-yung clearly did the expression on her face become a little more serious. She let go of the mop first, then turned around and knocked on the door to inform Cho Jung-sook.

When Chung Ju-yung arrived on the second floor, before he even took a step, Cho Jeong-sook had already opened the door and came out to greet him with a look of joy: "Chairman, why are you here?"

"I have some free time today, so I came here to relax. I remembered that you live here, so I wanted to come and see you." Chung Ju-yung smiled gently at Cho Jung-sook.

Cao Jingshu was very happy when she heard this: "It's been almost three months since you last came. It's really rare! Come on, I'll make you some tea!"

Seeing that Cho Jung-sook's steps seemed a little unsteady, Chung Ju-yung took the initiative to step forward and hold Cho Jung-sook's hand: "You looked a little gloomy when we last met. How come you still look so gloomy after all this time?"

Cao Jingshu smiled and said nothing, then went into the room with Chung Ju-yung.

As soon as Chung Ju-yung entered the room, he saw a handmade sweater and a ball of yarn placed on the sofa. It was obvious that Cao Jingshu must have been knitting a sweater. Looking at the style of the sweater, it was suitable for middle-aged and elderly people.

You don't have to guess to know that this was woven for him.

Chung Ju-yung felt warm inside and pointed at the sweater and said, "Why do you have to work so hard on this? It's not like I don't have clothes to wear!"

Cao Jingshu didn't care about that and said with a smile: "You came at the right time, it's almost finished! Give it a try!"

Cao Jingshu walked over, picked up the sweater, turned around and walked to Zheng Zhouyong, gesturing at his body: "It's a bit loose, I didn't expect that you have lost a lot of weight after not seeing you for a long time! It must be very hard to work, right?"

Chung Ju-yung's heart trembled as he looked at the woman who had accompanied him through his prime years of beauty. Now she was in her forties, with gray hair and wrinkles on her pretty face.
Chung Ju-yung reached out and touched Cho Jung-sook's cheek.

Cao Jingshu was measuring his sweater when she suddenly stopped and looked up at Zheng Zhouyong who was looking at her affectionately: "What's wrong with you?"

"Maybe it's because..." Chung Ju-yung hesitated and said, "I'm old and a little sentimental."

Cao Jingshu smiled, took Zheng Zhouyong's hand that was touching her cheek, and put it on her face: "You are not old, you are still the same. It is me who is old and no longer young and beautiful, and there is always a lack of beautiful young ladies around you--"

Chung Ju-yung smiled and stroked Cho Jung-sook's hair with his other hand: "Even if there is, I am powerless! I am almost seventy years old. Do you think I am an invincible superman?"

Cao Jingshu chuckled and looked at Chung Ju-yung lovingly: "In my eyes, you are Superman! South Korea's Superman! No one is worse than you!" Her eyes were full of admiration like a little fangirl.

Chung Ju-yung's emotional value was infinitely raised. Whether he was outside or at home, he could not be as happy and joyful as he was at this moment.

It's a rare moment of warmth.

Chung Ju-yung was fed up with the intrigues in the business world and the calculations of interests at home. At this moment, he just wanted to be with Cho Jung-sook and enjoy a moment of peace.

Unfortunately, God didn't give him this extravagant hope.

Jingle Bell!
The phone rings.

It also woke the two of them up from their warmth.

Cao Jingshu sat up from the sofa apologetically, then walked over to answer the phone.

Chung Ju-yung picked up the teacup and tasted the tea that Cho Jeong-sook had specially prepared for him.

suddenly!

Snap!
Cao Jingshu dropped the phone in shock.

Zheng Zhouyong turned around and looked at her. Seeing Cao Jingshu's face full of shock, he asked, "What's wrong?"

Cao Jingshu stuttered, "Atai, something happened to Atai!"

Chung Ju-yung frowned. This was not the first time he had heard this sentence.

"What trouble has he caused outside again?"

"No, that's not it! He was caught by someone. That person said he wanted to see you. If you are not seen within an hour, he will kill A Tai!" Cao Jingshu's lips were trembling and her face was pale with fear.

"Humph!" Chung Ju-yung jumped up, "Kill A-Tai? Who in Korea would be so bold?"

It's not that Chung Ju-yung is arrogant.

This is a fact.

As the head of Hyundai Group, Chung Ju-yung is a special existence in South Korea. Although Samsung Group is the largest, Samsung has a very bad relationship with the Blue House. Unlike Chung Ju-yung, who has a very harmonious relationship with the Blue House and helps each other, it is conceivable that who dares to be presumptuous to him? Unless you want to be an enemy of the entire Blue House and South Korea!
"That person said his name was... Du Yongxiao!"

"Du Yongxiao?"

Chung Ju-yung was stunned, feeling that the name was very familiar.

quickly!

Then he remembered who Du Yongxiao was?

"It's that Hong Kong guy!"

"Hong Kong people?"

"Yes!" Chung Ju-yung narrowed his eyes, revealing a hint of sinisterness. "The biggest excitement in the Korean business community recently is that Samsung Electronics, a subsidiary of the Samsung Group, was almost robbed, and Daehan Bank was acquired by a Chinese, and that Chinese was Du Yongxiao!"

"Is he really that powerful?"

Although Cao Jingshu is not a businessman, she knows how powerful Samsung and Korea Bank are. It shows how strong Du Yongxiao is that he can achieve this level. Zheng Zhouyong nodded: "Yes, not only powerful, but also unfathomable! It seems that I really need to go there in person this time!"

The originally dull old eyes were now full of brilliance.

……

Seoul Hotel.

In the presidential suite -
When Chung Ju-yung came here alone and saw Du Yong-xiao, he couldn't help but be surprised.

It’s because Du Yongxiao is too young.

Chung Ju-yung has been a big name in the Korean business world for many years, and his competitors are generally "old men" like Lee Byung-chul of Samsung and Shin Kyuk-ho of Lotte.

The youngest of them is almost sixty years old. There is no one as young as Du Yongxiao, who looks no more than thirty years old.

In fact, Chung Ju-yung still thought that Du Yongxiao was too old. Du Yongxiao was only 28 years old this year.

But Du Yongxiao's temperament and demeanor look very mature no matter how you look at it.

"Hello, Du Yongxiao!"

Du Yongxiao smiled and stretched out his hand when the other person looked at him.

Chung Ju-yung did not shake his hand and asked, "Where are my children?"

"Are you talking about Master Zheng?" Du Yongxiao smiled faintly, "I sent someone to send him back."

"what do you mean?"

"What I mean is - Chairman Zheng, why don't we sit down and talk!" Du Yongxiao pointed to the sofa.

Zheng Zhouyong snorted coldly, walked towards the sofa, turned around and sat down.

Du Yongxiao asked Jin Xuaner to serve tea.

Soon the tea was ready.

Du Yongxiao then said: "Now, let's get down to business!"

Chung Ju-yung said nothing, just stared at Du Yong-xiao.

Du Yongxiao said: "The specific situation is like this..."

He recounted in detail how Zheng Tai bullied Jin Xuaner.

When Chung Ju-yung heard this, his expression did not change much, because he knew the character of his beloved son and knew he would definitely do such a thing.

After Du Yongxiao finished speaking, Zheng Zhouyong said, "Just because he tried to bully your woman, you want to kill him?"

Du Yongxiao smiled, took a sip of tea, and looked at Zheng Zhouyong: "Yes, what's the matter?"

"you--"

No matter how calm and experienced Chung Ju-yung was, he was still angered by Du Yongxiao's unscrupulous behavior.

"Mr. Du, don't forget, this is South Korea!"

"Yes, this is indeed Korea, so it is a place with laws!" Du Yongxiao said with a smile, "Where there are laws, there must be rules. If a prince breaks the law, he will be punished the same as the common people, right? What's more--"

Du Yongxiao looked at Zheng Zhouyong: "Besides, Zheng Tai is just your illegitimate son, Chairman Zheng. If you dare to touch my woman, you deserve death!"

Zheng Zhouyong could no longer bear it, and stood up and said angrily: "Du, don't think I'm really afraid of you!"

"Wrong, I have never doubted your ability, President Zheng! On the contrary, I have always overestimated you!" Du Yongxiao said coldly, "So what are you going to do now? I sent Zheng Tai back, but I can always send him to the US military base in South Korea!"

"What do you mean?" Chung Ju-yung's face changed and he stared at Du Yongxiao.

Du Yongxiao met his eyes and said, "You should know my relationship with the Americans! Yes, as long as I make a phone call, even if you, Chung Ju-yung, have someone in the Blue House, what does it matter? Whether you can save your son depends on the mood of the Americans! To be precise--"

Du Yongxiao took a sip of tea slowly, "It depends on my mood!"

proud!
Too arrogant!

No one has ever dared to be as presumptuous in front of Chung Ju-yung as Du Yongxiao!

The atmosphere is extremely tense!

Full of excitement.

Zheng Zhouyong's expression changed several times-——
Although Zheng Tai is his illegitimate son, he is also Cao Jingshu's son!
He owes them both!
Zheng Zhouyong calmed down, sat down on the sofa again, looked at Du Yongxiao and said, "Let's talk about the conditions. What do you want me to do in order to let A Tai go?"

Du Yongxiao smiled slightly, pointed at the teacup and said, "We'll discuss the terms slowly. Tea please!"

Chung Ju-yung frowned, picked up the tea helplessly, took a sip, put it down, and looked at Du Yongxiao.

Du Yongxiao said: "Well, the conditions are very simple. You probably know that our Du Group has an automobile production line. I am now planning to copy it to South Korea! Of course, I know that you have domestic automobile protection measures in South Korea, so I hope you can say a few words at the Blue House for fair competition, okay?"

"you--"

Chung Ju-yung immediately guessed what Du Yongxiao was going to do.

"Do you think I will agree to it?"

"Maybe, maybe not!" Du Yongxiao shrugged and said, "I'm just betting on your humanity!"

Chung Ju-yung didn't say anything for a long time before he said, "I won't ruin my business plan for a bastard!"

Du Yongxiao nodded: "This is what a business leader should say, so--"

Du Yongxiao stood up and said, "Now that we have finished our talk, I will send your son to the U.S. Army!"

"Du Yongxiao, do you dare?"

"Why not?" Du Yongxiao smiled faintly: "It must be fun to take your son to shoot!"

Chung Ju-yung's face changed suddenly.

Du Yongxiao ordered outside: "Go, help Chairman Zheng prepare a coffin so that he can collect the body!"

"Yes!" Yan Xiong said loudly outside.

Du Yongxiao looked at Zheng Zhouyong again: "Now, goodbye, I won't see you off!"

Chung Ju-yung froze, staring at Du Yong-xiao, wondering what he was thinking.

Watching Du Yongxiao help him open the door, Chung Ju-yung walked over.

Just as he was about to leave the room, he turned around abruptly, stared at Du Yongxiao and asked, "Do I have any choice?"

"without!"

"Okay, I promise you!"

finally---
Human nature triumphs over reason.

Even a tiger won’t eat its own cubs!
