Be reborn and be happy to the fullest

Chapter 791: First meeting Han Xiaozhou after picking up the car

"President, this Aston Martin was reserved by a customer and just arrived today. It's not customized, so if you want to drive it, you can pick it up anytime. We'll just need to spend some time restocking it for that customer!"

Han Dazhi was not in the store, and Li Shuo was received by the store manager he designated. The latter's main requirement was that the car should match his status and be a luxury car in stock. So he naturally chose this Aston Martin that had just arrived in the store and was priced at 7 million won.

This is not the V series that the Chinese Internet is familiar with, which costs up to 3000 million yuan. It is the DB series that is more commonly used in "daily life". Of course, it is the top-of-the-line DBS, which is equipped with a V12 engine that can reach 725 horsepower. It is also Li Shuo's favorite feature.

Since Li Shuo's rebirth, the hobby he has cultivated and developed the most is racing. Unfortunately, he was subject to some restrictions in the cold sea. But here, after accidentally speeding while driving Matiya's Ferrari and being forced to hide in the rice fungus base, Li Shuo felt like he had opened the door to a new world:
It's mainly about that feeling of complete indulgence, of being free and unrestrained, with no one controlling you. It's as addictive as poison.

Amid the humming sound of the motor, Li Shuo stepped on the accelerator, and the Aston Martin sped off at such a speed that driver No. 3, who was following closely behind, gave a wry smile...

After the two luxury cars left, a red BMW drove into the experience hall. Then, a woman wearing a mask and a hat got out of the car and entered the store.

5 minutes later

"Um, Manager, the person who ordered the Aston Martin is here..."

"What subscriber?"

"It's the one the president drove away. The person who ordered it never showed up, but I didn't expect him to come today..."

"what?"

The store manager hurried into the VIP room, bowed his head and apologized, "Excuse me, miss, you can't pick up the car for the time being. It hasn't arrived yet..."

"What? Didn't you call me earlier and tell me the car had arrived?"

The woman's voice was clear and pleasant, but the store manager felt it sounded familiar. He didn't care about that, thought about it, and found an excuse, smiling bitterly:
"Well, the Aston Martin you ordered has indeed arrived, but there was a temporary problem and we need to tune it, so you'll need to wait two more days..."

The woman frowned and said dissatisfiedly, "Something went wrong? What could go wrong with a new car that has already arrived? Or is the Aston Martin not good? If that's the case, I should consider canceling the order!"

It would be better if you could withdraw it, so I don’t have to re-order it! The store manager muttered to himself.

But women are not to be trifled with. She expressed her dissatisfaction with a sharp tongue, forcing the store manager to apologize repeatedly. As he listened, he suddenly realized where he had heard the voice and exclaimed in surprise, "Your voice sounds like Eun-seong... Hey, are you Han Hyo-joo?"

The woman quickly covered her mouth, then realized she was still wearing the mask. She stammered a few words, then turned around and said, "Anyway, I'll send someone to pick up the car tomorrow. Make sure it's ready for me!"

With that, he fled in a panic...

……

Neon lights flickered in the Gangnam district at night. A members-only restaurant, hidden behind a row of ginkgo trees, its understated black facade blended seamlessly into the night. Li Shuo parked his Aston Martin at the entrance, tossed the keys to the parking attendant, and walked down the hall.

"Sir, do you have an appointment?"

"Yes, it's an appointment with Nam Gyuri."

The waiter nodded with a smile, and after confirming the reservation information, he led him through the softly lit corridor to the window, where Nam Gyuri was already sitting in the innermost booth.

Tonight she had changed into a champagne-colored satin gown that set off her skin like jade. When she saw Li Shuo, she stood up slightly, letting the hem of her skirt sway gracefully.

"Thank you for your presence, President Li." She spoke softly, her watery eyes looking at Li Shuo, as if she could see through him.

During this period of time, she found out a lot of information about Li Shuo through her friends in China and South Korea, and she also completely confirmed that this man, whom she almost agreed to give to her directly at the airport, is a super rich man who is one level higher than Cui Yunzhen!

Although Choi Yoon-jeong is the daughter of SK Group, she is only the second generation of a chaebol after all, while Lee Seok is the first generation of a chaebol!

Li Shuo sat down opposite her and glanced at her carefully made-up face: "I'm very happy to have dinner with Miss Nan Guili. This should be my honor..."

The waiter presented the menu in due time. Nam Gyuri skillfully ordered a few signature dishes and handed the menu to Li Shuo.

She was so proactive, it seemed like she was treating them. Li Shuo looked at her and teased, "There's Romanee-Conti on the menu. Would you like a bottle?"

This is a red wine priced at 8000 million won.

"Wow, are you going to eat me whole?" Nam Gyu-ri glared at him playfully, but her tone implied, "You, the chairman of this big conglomerate, are bullying a little woman like me." Then she smiled lightly and said, "However, I've earned some money from acting over the years, so I can afford a bottle of red wine..."

The beautiful face, perfectly shaped by AI, showed such a vivid expression, which made Li Shuo feel wonderful. He praised it naturally:
"Although I've always thought you were beautiful, Nam Gyuri, you look especially charming today...On the plane, I saw you as a beautiful Hallyu star, but now, you seem like the most dazzling, perfect, and charming woman..."

Although it was his first date with Nam Gyu-ri, the two had even kissed at the airport and were already quite close, so it was natural for Lee Seok to praise her. Nam Gyu-ri also accepted the compliment with joy and replied with "thank you"...

The atmosphere of a date gradually grew stronger from this moment on. As the waiter began to serve the meal, the atmosphere became increasingly ambiguous as the two chatted...

"Isn't this President Li's first time in Seoul?" Nam Gyuri held her chin with her hand, her eyes filled with just the right amount of curiosity.

"Well, it's basically business needs..." Li Shuo didn't want to say much, because once they got into the conversation, they would inevitably talk about Choi Yun-jeong and the bright and lovely South Korean beauties standing in front of the airport highway.

Nan Guili also knew this. She also deliberately avoided the crowd and asked doubtfully, "Business? Excuse me, I only heard of the name Shuoguo Construction after deliberately asking around. Apart from that, the rest of Shuoguo's businesses seem to be in China..."

"You have a good feeling..." Li Shuo said frankly, "Because the Shuoguo Group has only entered South Korea in the past six months. No, it hasn't even been a few months..."

"Oh? So short a time?"

Nan Guili's expression of surprise was timely. "I heard that Shuoguo Construction is already a giant construction company that owns 100 properties of various kinds. Rumor has it that its assets are at least hundreds of billions! In the capital, only chaebols like Samsung and their subsidiaries can reach a similar scale..."

This is the legendary unlimited full rental.

Li Shuo smiled mysteriously and didn't continue. Instead, he said, "Don't just talk about me, let's talk about you... I think I saw you in a Korean drama. It must be you, right?"

"What drama? I have some recently released dramas..."

"..."

Talking about herself, Nam Gyuri was noticeably more relaxed. She even recounted anecdotes from filming, her eyes flickering as she got excited, and occasionally, thanks to the effects of the red wine, she let out a soft laugh. The dim light from the restaurant fell on her eyelashes, casting tiny shadows.

"Sometimes I feel like being a star is like living in a glass house," she suddenly whispered, tracing circles along the rim of the glass with her fingertips. "Everyone is looking at you, but in reality, no one can get in."

Li Shuo raised his glass and clinked it with hers: "Isn't someone coming in now?"

Nan Guili was slightly startled, then smiled: "President Li is very good at talking..."

Her beautiful eyes moved, and she placed her hands on the wine glass. She lowered her hands, but this time, she rested them on Li Shuo's big hands on the table...

This is exactly the purpose of Li Shuo's date with Nam Gyu-ri, but in this "formal date", he is not like he was on the plane, or rather, when he was on the plane, Nam Gyu-ri seemed to be coerced by Choi Yoon-jeong, but when she arrived at this high-end restaurant, she completely returned to her star style.

So, from the time they had dinner until now, the two of them were more like a couple who had just started dating, rather than to the point of kissing.

Until now, seeing Nan Guili's body unconsciously leaning forward, Li Shuo did not hesitate and moved forward directly...

Compared with the time at the airport, Nam Gyuri was more proactive and enthusiastic this time. She showed her feelings to Li Shuo almost without reservation - using the technique of kissing.

If he could give a rating, Li Shuo would give Nam Gyu-ri a perfect score: Taking into account the psychological and emotional factors, Nam Gyu-ri's flawless face, devilish figure, and current level of cooperation have all made Li Shuo's confidence as a man swell to the extreme...

At this moment, a startled "Eh" was heard, and then a figure stood beside the two of them.

Li Shuo was fine, but as a Korean star, Nan Guili was inevitably affected. She immediately separated from him and looked at the man. She was stunned at first, then stood up in surprise: "Xiaozhou, you're back!"

At the same time, Li Shuo also noticed that the person standing next to him was another Korean star, and unlike the "second-tier" stars like Nam Gyuri, he was very familiar with this star.

"Sister Guili, what a coincidence!"

Han Xiaozhou was wearing a neat white halter dress with a coat casually draped over her shoulders. She stood beside them and gave the two of them a bright smile.

She was obviously very familiar with Nam Gyu-ri. As they were talking, she was invited to sit next to her. She smiled mischievously and said, "It's only been a few days since we last met. Gyu-ri, do you have a boyfriend? Let me guess. Um, you must be the head of SK Semiconductor, President Gu Young-shin. Hello, I'm Han Hyo-joo. Nice to meet you!"

As he spoke, he extended his hand to Li Shuo. (End of Chapter)
