Be reborn and be happy to the fullest

Of course, because of Li Shuo's "letting him go," Zheng Shirong easily rekindled his desire for revenge, so he ultimately did not break down. Watching Li Shuo lead Zheng Xiuyan onto the elevator, and the elevator indicator light showing that the two seemed to have reached the top floor, Zheng Shirong picked up his phone and sent a "distress signal" to one of his housekeepers...

"Oppa, are we just leaving like this? Director Jung Se-yong's background is with the Dangdai Chaebol, one of the top three chaebols in South Korea. And unlike other chaebols, the Dangdai Chaebol focuses on a few labor-intensive industries such as automobile manufacturing. Hmm, these kinds of industries require connections in both the legal and illegal worlds, so the Dangdai Chaebol has the worst reputation among the chaebols..."

Jessica Jung was not as calm as she appeared. After getting on the elevator, she immediately told Lee Seok what she knew, and then leaned close to his ear and whispered:
"According to industry rumors, the famous actress Zhang Yanzhi committed suicide because she was pressured by contemporary tycoons... This celebrity suicide case in 02 caused a global sensation due to a joint protest by industry stars. Since then, the case has been tried and retried. To this day, dozens of people who pressured Zhang Yanzhi have been identified, but none of them have been punished..."

What she told Lee Seok was one of the most famous cases in South Korea.

Li Shuo knew this. He even knew that 11 years later, several female celebrities would follow in Zhang Yanzi's footsteps, and it was said that they would be the same group of people...

To put it bluntly, the place is too small, it's not a normal independent country, and it has such a large population, so it's natural that these kinds of strange things are bound to happen!
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. I'll take care of the problem tonight!"

Lee Seok smoothed Jessica Jung's hair and smiled, "Even if it's not for me, for the sake of you, my beloved, I can't let him spoil my beautiful girl's good mood!"

"Goose, goose"

Jessica Jung covered her mouth and laughed out loud. Being with Lee Seok made her happy almost all the time.

As we were talking, the elevator doors opened, revealing the rooftop scene. It featured a design style that combined a semi-indoor space with an outdoor rooftop garden. The elevator lobby was located in the center. Turning left led to the shopping center, while turning right revealed the rooftop view.

"Wow, there's nobody here..."

Jessica Jung vaguely understood something, but she still looked at Lee Seok in surprise. The latter nodded with a smile, indicating that the place had been booked out by Seo Hee.

Li Shuo didn't explain explicitly, but simply took her hand and led her into the rooftop area, saying as they walked, "I've heard that this is a sacred place for couples to date. Kissing amidst the flower garlands in the rooftop garden can ensure that couples hold hands happily for a lifetime and never be separated..."

Lee Seok put some thought into his date with Jessica Jung. As they walked, he led the girl through the rooftop garden, which was entirely made of glass, even the floor beneath their feet was covered in it, creating a particularly romantic atmosphere...

As she watched the bouquets of flowers bloom around her, and heard the sweet words that occasionally escaped Li Shuo's lips during his introduction, Zheng Xiuyan's pretty face was filled with intoxication. Dizzy, she was pulled by the man to the highest flower-bound hanging ring, and the two of them sat down together...

At this moment, a photographer naturally appeared to take pictures and commemorate the moment. Then, Lee Seok took Jung Soo-yeon to other attractions, but when they passed the elevator entrance, they saw an unexpected figure.

"President Li, are you really not afraid at all? Zheng Shirong has already brought people over, and I feel obligated to come and remind you."

The person standing in front of me was none other than Han Xiaozhou!

You know, when Li Shuo was arguing with Zheng Shirong, he dragged her into it too, but now she's acting as if nothing happened!
This woman is incredibly shrewd! She sensed that Li Shuo had other tricks up his sleeve and was curious about how he would manage the Contemporary Conglomerate, which is why she followed him!
"Oh, is it really just a reminder?"

Li Shuo stared at Han Xiaozhou with amusement. The latter smiled slightly, showing no embarrassment at being exposed, after all, she was just trying to be helpful.

"Alright, since you've followed me, then stay here and watch. Hmm, don't hold back in front of me. If you want to know anything, feel free to ask... You're Nam Gyu-ri's best friend, and there are many things I won't tell you now, but you'll find out in the future..."

Is it really that direct? Or does it truly possess an incredibly strong foundation and confidence?

Han Xiaozhou was both surprised and astonished. Although she had only met Li Shuo twice, the latter had undoubtedly left a deep impression on her. Otherwise, she wouldn't have secretly come up to "tip her in" at this time...

"Ding Dong"

Just as Han Xiaozhou was still in shock, Li Shuo's phone rang. He picked it up, glanced at it, and chuckled, "What was Zheng Shirong thinking, bringing so many people here? Does he think he's some kind of gangster boss?"

Jessica Jung curiously leaned towards Lee Seok's phone, exclaimed in surprise, "Oppa, are you monitoring Jung Se-yong all the time? How do you do that?"

"what?"

Han Hyo-joo was originally very reserved, like a top female celebrity. She felt that she had already reached her limit by taking the initiative to inform him. However, now, Jessica Jung's words have completely piqued her curiosity, and she unconsciously came closer.

Li Shuo didn't keep them in suspense and laid his phone out so both women could see it clearly: it was a simple four-panel grid. Han Xiaozhou could immediately tell that two of the images were of the building's front entrance and the elevator lobby. At that moment, Zheng Shirong and her group were also in the elevator lobby...

These two might not be surprising, but the other two are truly astonishing: one is directly behind Jung Se-yong, and the camera is moving, suggesting someone is constantly following him! This is why Jessica Jung said Lee Seok was constantly monitoring Jung Se-yong. Another new scene shows a group of people in light blue uniforms with nut-shaped icons printed on their clothes, below which are the Chinese characters for "successful" (硕果). Because there are Korean syllables below the Chinese characters, Han Hyo-ju could also understand them!

"It's not like I'm monitoring him all the time, just necessary security measures. When I'm traveling, I take security very seriously..."

Listening to Li Shuo's vague explanation, Han Xiaozhou pursed his lips, unable to suppress his curiosity, and looked up to ask, "Does the necessary security measure include taking over the surveillance of this kind of public building?"

Adjusting the surveillance footage of a building is not difficult; what is difficult is this kind of real-time monitoring, which is actually an infringement of privacy rights and requires approval and endorsement from government agencies. Therefore, even for large corporations, it takes time and effort to achieve this.

This is a question of whether it's worth it.

And Li Shuo, just for "necessary security", how could his subordinates go to such lengths?

"Haha, of course not... It's just a coincidence; the owner of this building happens to be an acquaintance..."

Even Li Shuo only just learned from Xu Ji that the restaurant she had carefully selected and the owner of this department store were actually part of Lin Shiya's dowry!

It can only be said that the Elephant Group, which can form an alliance with the Sanxing Group, is itself incredibly powerful.

Without offering further explanation, Li Shuo stood up and walked towards the elevator, saying, "Originally, I didn't want to be disturbed on my date with Xiuyan, but since Miss Han is up here, let's go down and see..."

Han Xiaozhou followed closely behind, and asked in astonishment, "You mean..."

Jessica Jung retorted, clearly annoyed, "Since Oppa has security personnel, he can naturally stop Jung Se-yong and the others... If you hadn't come up, we might not have even known that Jung Se-yong had been here!"

She was extremely annoyed that Han Hyo-joo had disrupted her date. The main reason was that in front of this top Hallyu star, every smile and gesture of hers was a huge threat to Jessica Jung. Moreover, this woman seemed to have a crush on Lee Seok and kept flirting with him, which was really annoying!

Han Hyo-joo smiled and said, "Soo-yeon, don't you think this is the most romantic thing? Women should always know that they are being protected by men."

It means that it was only after I joined that you realized how powerful your man is.

Jessica Jung pursed her lips and didn't say anything...

……

"Young Master Zheng, the owner of this building is Lin Shiya, she is... This is..."

"In addition, we have also found out some information about the man named Li Shuo. He was not lying. He is the second largest shareholder of Xu's Law Firm. The original second largest shareholder of the law firm was Zheng Shihe, a member of a branch of the conglomerate. Although he is of the same generation as you, he is 10 years older than you. He started working outside at a very young age and is quite capable. However, because Li Shuo was involved with Xu Ji, the founder of Xu's Law Firm, he was driven out of the company by the two of them. Since then, he has been in decline and has no value to us."

Zheng Shirong is a core member of the Contemporary Consortium. Compared to Zheng Shihe, whom Li Shuo had encountered before, he has more authority to mobilize some of the Contemporary Consortium's resources. The group that came with him now is one of the Contemporary Consortium's security forces.

After being brought by Zheng Shirong, they did not rush upstairs. Instead, they first confirmed Li Shuo's whereabouts and obtained some necessary information. Only after confirming the information did they come to report to Zheng Shirong.

"Finally, Li Shuo hasn't come down since he went upstairs. He and his female companion, Miss Zheng Xiuyan, are currently on the top floor. Young master, shall we go up now?"

Zheng Shirong nodded in satisfaction, patted the captain on the shoulder, praised him a couple of times, and then gave orders with high spirits: "Let's go, let's go up! Once we're up there, separate the men and women first. I'll take care of Xiuyan and calm her down. As for that guy named Li Shuo, give him a good beating first and force him to reveal his background and power before we make a decision!"

This is the standard procedure for dealing with enemies, and indeed for the entire contemporary Jung family: if the other party has the background of several equally powerful conglomerates, then they can naturally be treated equally, and everyone can sit down and talk amicably to divide up the spoils of South Korea together...

Before he could finish speaking, there was a loud "whoosh," and several burly men appeared in front of the elevator doors, blocking their way. The man in the middle, wearing a baseball cap, seemed to be their leader. He said in broken South Korean, "You can't bring so many people up!"

"Are you the security personnel here?"

The captain of the Contemporary Consortium greeted him with a puzzled look, while Zheng Shirong raised an eyebrow and said, "I know your homeowner, Miss Lin. Get out of my way!" (End of Chapter)
