Be reborn and be happy to the fullest

"Hey, you two handsome gentlemen, why is the atmosphere so tense the moment we meet? We're not enemies, friends of friends are still friends, can you please not make things so awkward?"

Seeing the two men getting increasingly agitated, Han Xiaozhou quickly interjected. As she spoke, she smiled charmingly. Facing two men of high status, she showed little flattery, but rather a certain air of authority, giving the impression that she was implying, "Can't you two take care of the girls?"

Of course, in Han Hyo-ju's view, Lee Seok was, after all, an overseas chaebol, and his power in South Korea was definitely no match for Jung Se-young.

So, after saying that, she turned to look at Li Shuo, her eyes filled with a hint of coquettishness, and said in her still sweet voice, "Chairman Li, you are a great tycoon, a big shot, and you have such a beautiful woman like Xiuyan by your side, hehe, maybe you shouldn't... that..."

He spoke haltingly, but it conveyed a "you know what I mean" meaning. In reality, it was a gesture of siding with Jung Se-yong, hoping that Lee Seok would back down.

At the same time, she deliberately mentioned Jessica Jung, which clearly carried a hint of threat: Do you want me to tell Nam Gyu-ri about this?
"What do you not want? Miss Han, please be clear about what you have to say!"

Li Shuo was displeased, raising his eyebrows. He wasn't the type to back down just because the other person was a beautiful woman; in fact, offending him would only excite him more.

The established star possessed exceptional observation skills. Seeing that Li Shuo's expression was off and he seemed about to lash out, Han Xiaozhou quickly waved his hands, emphasizing, "No, no, no, I didn't mean any admonition or disrespect to the chairman..."

While speaking, she looked at Jessica Jung and said, "Hey, Jessica-ssi, say something too..."

Jessica Jung is the leader of the group "Beautiful Legs Generation". Compared to the other members, she is more mature and composed, and naturally understands interpersonal relationships. Theoretically speaking, this is a request from a senior figure in the industry, so she should help.

But deep down she favored her oppa, pursed her lips, and coldly retorted, "What right do I have to speak here? You're a senior in the industry, you're the one who makes the decisions..."

Han Hyo-joo immediately raised her beautiful eyebrows. She hadn't expected Jessica Jung to be so stubborn, and for a moment she realized that the situation was out of her control...

On the other side, Zheng Shirong was quite excited by Han Xiaozhou's "choice," and excitedly shouted, "Xiaozhou is doing this for your own good, to make you shut up and not offend me! Haha, to be honest, I'm not the kind of person who holds grudges. Judging from the current situation, you can at least be associated with a chaebol, so even though you didn't greet me first, I won't hold it against you..."

Finally, Zheng Shirong glanced casually at Han Xiaozhou beside him and gestured for him to leave: "Xiaozhou, let's go..."

He had this air of "this guy is being magnanimous and charming because of the beautiful woman"...

Oops!

Upon hearing Zheng Shirong's words, Han Xiaozhou's lips twitched, and she almost raised her hand to slap this guy: He's supposed to be a third-generation chaebol, yet he has absolutely no sense of propriety. No, this guy is just trying to escalate the conflict!
Then, with a flick of his wrist, Han Xiaozhou pushed away Zheng Shirong's outstretched hand and said angrily, "Director Zheng, you are all my friends. Aren't you making things difficult for me?"

He then immediately turned to Li Shuo and said, "I'm so sorry, Chairman Li. I never expected that a chance encounter would turn into something like this! How about this, I'll treat you to dinner another day to apologize. I'll take Director Zheng away now. I'm truly sorry..."

All she wanted now was to get away with this powder keg as soon as possible and put the matter on hold for the time being. Saying this now was also to make things look better for Li Shuo and get him to let her go...

After all, they've already said they'll treat you to dinner another day, what more do they want?
It's a real pity that Li Shuo is someone who doesn't care much about his reputation, only acts according to his own mood, and likes to do whatever he wants!

"You're treating me to dinner? When and where? Do you need me to bring Nam Gyu-ri along? You seemed to be trying to bring her up just now..."

In the end, Li Shuo glanced at Zheng Xiuyan, who was quietly playing the role of a decorative vase beside him, and the meaning was very clear: Look, I dare to mention your best friend, who has an ambiguous relationship with me, in front of my female companion. How can you threaten me now?
Then, he turned to Zheng Shirong and said, "I don't care at all what your relationship with Han Xiaozhou was before, but if you're interested in pursuing her now, then I'm sorry, she'll soon become my woman!"

When Li Shuo said "she", he was actually pointing at Han Xiaozhou!
He actually told his female companion, Jessica Jung, that he had feelings for other women!
In that instant, Han Hyo-joo and Jung Se-yong's expressions turned extremely ugly, and even Jung Soo-yeon's expression changed slightly. She said coquettishly, "Oppa, what are you saying? I won't allow you to pursue Senior Han!"

Her tone was somewhat coquettish, with a slight hint of warning, but mostly indulgent, using this statement to prove that she didn't react much and was completely biased towards Li Shuo.

"Haha, okay, I'll go after Han Xiaozhou after you give me your permission!"

Li Shuo laughed heartily.
Reaching out, he grabbed Jessica Jung's slender waist, and with a slight pull, Jessica Jung let out a soft cry and fell into Lee Seok's arms... This kind of blatant flaunting is a huge provocation to any man, especially to the chaebols who have always been arrogant in South Korea.

Jung Se-yong is a direct descendant of a modern-day chaebol! Although he's not yet in the line of succession, it's not too far off. With such a background, entering the entertainment industry is partly to "pursue his dreams," and partly, of course, just for fun!

In the South Korean entertainment industry, Jung Se-yong has been involved with quite a few female celebrities. Recently, he has set his sights on "Beautiful Legs Generation" and Han Hyo-ju.

For most men, the fantasy of having nine girls sleeping together is a dream. Jung Se-yong is a man of action, so he has always been the general director of the music video for The Longest Necklace. His first target is the leader of The Longest Necklace, who is also beautiful and smart.

Jung Se-yong was also pursuing Han Hyo-ju seriously, but it was a difficult pursuit. He put in a lot of effort, and so far he could only manage to get her to go out for a meal once a month...

Tonight is "the only day of the month"!
First, there was Jessica Jung, who had stolen what he coveted, and then there was the opportunity to impress Han Hyo-joo...

Zheng Shirong felt a buzzing sound, his blood rushing to his head. He raised his hand, slapping Li Shuo as he shouted:

"Who do you think you are, daring to chase after Xiaozhou! Damn it, give me your name now, what's your real name, not some random name like Shuoguo, I've never even heard of such a thing... Damn it, you just wait, I'll show you right now who owns South Korea..."

"what"

Before he could finish a sentence, all the curses he was about to say turned into screams of agony. Li Shuo's current skills were far beyond those of ordinary people!
Moreover, he didn't hold back. Grabbing Zheng Shirong's hand, he snapped Zheng's fingers in two with a "crack" sound!
"Listen carefully, I am Li Shuo, the second largest shareholder of Xu's Law Firm. You can go to the law firm to claim medical expenses for your fractured hand today. I will have my subordinates pay for it!"

Li Shuo, with a mocking expression, twisted Zheng Shirong's hand in the opposite direction, but did not easily let go. The latter first screamed, followed by a barrage of vulgarities, but with Li Shuo's force, Zheng Shirong fell to the ground with a thud, his knees half-paralyzed. In pain, he involuntarily begged for mercy...

"It hurts, it hurts, let go, let go... Waaah..."

Having his five fingers almost broken was extremely painful. Zheng Shirong's facial muscles were contorted, and he wished he could chop Li Shuo up and tear his flesh apart, but reality forced him to beg for mercy and apologize...

"enough!"

Han Xiaozhou let out a shrill cry, mainly because Li Shuo's words just now treated her like a toy, as if catching up with her was such an easy thing, which disgusted her.

But as soon as he called out, seeing Lee Seok's sharp gaze, Han Hyo-joo instinctively shrank back, and softened his voice, saying, "Chairman Lee, please show mercy. Director Jung is also a core member of the Dangdai Foundation. If you want to develop your career in South Korea in the future, you will inevitably have to cooperate with the Dangdai Foundation..."

This standard peacemaking rhetoric is useless against Li Shuo. Since he has acted so arrogantly, he will make Zheng Shirong "submit in kind"!
He crouched down, looking at Jung Se-yong who was kneeling on the ground, and said coldly, "Don't blame me for not giving you a chance. Tonight, I won't be leaving here for the time being. Aren't you from a big conglomerate in South Korea? I'll give you one hour to pamper me as much as you want..."

As he spoke, he turned to Jessica Jung, smiled gently at her, extended his hand, and said in a very gentlemanly manner, "Beautiful lady, would you do me the honor of inviting me to the next level?"

The restaurant is located in a department store, above which are many shopping and entertainment venues, and even next to a five-star hotel. So, Xu Ji's initial plan was to spend the night here.

Jessica Jung stared blankly at Lee Seok in front of her, feeling that in that instant, the man transformed from "arrogant" and "fierce" to "gentleman" and "gentle," becoming incredibly charming, especially to women, he was simply the epitome of a perfect male god!
"Oppa, you're so handsome!"

At that moment, Jessica Jung completely forgot that Lee Seok had just hit the heir of the contemporary conglomerate, and that she had offended the big star Han Hyo-joo by refusing to make peace. She couldn't help but move closer to Lee Seok, tiptoe, and kiss him with her red lips...

Li Shuo hadn't expected the girl to fall in love so easily, and he was naturally pleased with that. So, just like before, he wrapped his arm around the girl's waist and kissed her again...

Watching the couple's tender and entangled love, Han Xiaozhou was speechless. She really didn't understand why Li Shuo could remain so calm after offending the conglomerate. Was the Shuoguo Conglomerate, which she had never heard of, really that powerful?

Compared to her, Jung Se-yong, who was already badly injured on the ground, was utterly devastated. He had been pursuing Jessica Jung for quite some time, but he had never even held her hand, let alone so blatantly manipulated her! (End of Chapter)
