Financial freedom starts from graduation

Chapter 631 Don't throw away broken things

"Huh, huh..."

In the dimly lit private room, the moonlight could only outline the silhouettes of the two people.

Faint music drifted in from somewhere, and it was a Chinese song, seemingly the theme song from a classic Cantonese movie:
"Life's journey is long, like a beautiful dream. Along the way, there are hardships and frosts that sting your face. In this mortal world, how many directions can a beautiful dream take..."

Fortunately, the music masked Jisoo's heavy breathing.

In the corner near the entrance of the private room, Zhou Wang had to grab Kim Ji-soo's arm with one hand and support her slender waist with the other to keep her from collapsing to the floor.

Yes, at this point, Kim Jisoo was not much different from a lump of mud.

She looked like she had been dancing for hours straight, her forehead and neck soaked with sweat. Her silk dress, which wasn't particularly thin to begin with, was now mostly clinging to her shapely body, with one strap hanging down in a wrinkled mess, revealing her snow-white shoulders and neck in the shadows.

But the most appalling sight was the black stockings beneath the skirt, with scratches and bruises, and holes revealing the white skin underneath, like a messy work of art, exuding a seductive and primal aura upon closer inspection.

But at this moment, Kim Jisoo was clearly oblivious to her loss of composure. She simply opened her bewildered eyes slightly and greedily inhaled the surrounding air, even though it seemed to be mixed with some strange smells...

Kim Jisoo felt her thoughts drifting in the air, and she didn't know how long it had been before they finally settled down. The moment her soul returned to her body, she blinked and the first thing she saw was Zhou Wang's concerned gaze.

"Are you okay?"

"fine……"

Kim Jisoo answered instinctively at first, then realized what had just happened.

She was actually pinned against the wall by Zhou Wang, who took advantage of her by kissing and touching her for 10... no, maybe 20, or even 30 minutes...

Kim Jisoo had completely lost her sense of time; she only remembered the whole process, which felt like a very long time ago.

Or perhaps that's not quite right. The correct order should be: he touched her, then kissed her again, then touched her again, and finally they became one. Zhou Wang seemed to have cast some kind of spell, completely consuming her reason.

She remembered that she had been resisting at first, but later, somehow, all her strength was drained away. It seemed that not only that, she even stood on tiptoe and shamefully cooperated with Zhou Wang.

Recalling the whole thing, Kim Ji-soo was instantly overwhelmed with shame. She raised her hand, probably intending to hit Zhou Wang, but she couldn't muster much strength, and the result was just a weak punch to Zhou Wang's chest.

However, Zhou Wang didn't think she was flirting, because tears welled up in Kim Ji-soo's eyes, instantly making her originally somewhat aloof face misty and adding a touch of pitiful fragility.

“Zhou Wang…President, this is indecent assault, this is coercion…”

Kim Ji-soo addressed Zhou Wang by his full name for the first time, but subconsciously added the title "Chairman." She began to accuse Zhou Wang of his crimes, but her tone was too gentle. If Zhou Wang didn't understand Korean, he would probably have a hard time guessing what she was saying.

"I love you."

Zhou Wang simply gazed at her and said this.

Kim Jisoo paused for a moment, then shook her head, "I don't believe it..."

Zhou Wang's response was to lower his head and kiss her again.

Jisoo's breathing quickened, but she still shook her head, "Don't lie to me, we just met..."

Zhou Wang kissed her again.

"You're a scoundrel! I... I won't be fooled by you..."

This time, Zhou Wang kissed her for a longer time, and a crackling sound, like electricity, filled the air.

After the kiss ended, Kim Jisoo was a little unsteady on her feet and had to lean against Zhou Wang's chest. But this time, she could no longer organize her thoughts and stammered several times without saying anything.

"Take a break and get yourself in a better state. Your colleagues are still in the kitchen across the street. It's not good for them to see you like this."

Zhou Wang made no further moves. Although from his current angle, he could see a lot of snowy scenery through the messy neckline of Kim Ji-soo's dress by the faint moonlight, he still restrained himself.

In fact, I had already been a bit too carefree just now, which wasted a lot of time. Now I need to get the important things done first.

Reminded by Zhou Wang, Kim Ji-soo suddenly realized that right, in the private room across the street, Lee Jung-jae and the others were still drinking, and she was so close to a man, being all lovey-dovey...

Besides, even though my parents aren't at the bar today, who knows if they might suddenly come to check on things? What if they see me like this...?

Thinking of all this, Kim Jisoo's face, which had finally calmed down, instantly turned frighteningly red again. The immense shame made her wish she could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

She finally regained some strength, broke free from Zhou Wang's support, moved to a chair next to her, and began to tidy her clothes. However, just as Kim Ji-soo was about to lift her skirt, she paused and looked up angrily.

Actually, her angry expression wasn't very offensive, but Zhou Wang didn't provoke her further and obediently turned away.

Zhou Wang only turned half of his body to the side, and it seemed that he could still catch a glimpse of something out of the corner of his eye, but Kim Ji-soo couldn't ask for more and could only quickly tidy up.

There was a rustling sound, followed by a "ripping" sound. Hearing this, Zhou Wang couldn't help but turn his head and saw Kim Ji-soo take off the pantyhose that could be worn as a QQ character outfit, exposing her snow-white thighs to the air.

Just as Kim Ji-soo was about to throw her stockings into the trash can, she noticed Zhou Wang's gaze and instinctively covered her skirt, looking up in shame and indignation.

"President, you..."

"Uh, I wasn't trying to peek at you, I just wanted to say, could you please not lose these stockings?"

Zhou Wang felt it was such a pity that he couldn't help but speak his mind.

Kim Ji-soo looked blankly at the crumpled stockings in her hand, then stared at Zhou Wang, seemingly unable to understand his logic for the moment.

Zhou Wang also felt that he might be a bit too abnormal, so he coughed lightly, waved his hand, and turned around.

"Never mind, just pretend I didn't say anything..."

Kim Jisoo finally came to her senses, but only blushed slightly and didn't say anything, continuing to quietly tidy her clothes.

Then Kim Jisoo went into the bathroom and fiddled with something inside; only the faint sound of water could be heard.

At this moment, Zhou Wang, who was outside lighting a cigarette, suddenly realized what was happening.

its not right!
There is a restroom in this private room, so why did Kim Ji-soo change her clothes in front of him just now?
Zhou Wang fell into deep thought.

……

About ten minutes later, Kim Jisoo finally came out of the restroom. By then, Zhou Wang had already turned on the lights in the private room. When he saw Kim Jisoo come out, he looked her up and down.

Her silk slip dress had returned to its original shape, but upon closer inspection, some slight wrinkles and traces of sweat stains could still be seen. However, without making a specific connection, it was not easy to notice the difference.

In addition, her stockings were missing, and her two long, bare legs were exposed below the hem of her skirt. However, the long skirt covered her knees and it wasn't cold indoors, so it wasn't a big problem.

What truly distracted Zhou Wang was that Kim Jisoo had completely removed her makeup, revealing her to be completely bare-faced...

Perhaps it was because Zhou Wang had eaten all her lipstick and smeared her makeup, so it would have been better to remove it completely for a more natural look.

What Zhou Wang didn't expect was that Kim Jisoo's looks didn't drop much even without makeup.

Her fair skin was flawless, her large eyes remained clear and bright, her lips had a light, alluring pink color, and her delicate eyebrows still maintained their original shape...

Have you had plastic surgery?

Out of curiosity, Zhou Wang couldn't help but ask a question.

"of course not."

Kim Jisoo glared at Zhou Wang and said somewhat angrily, "Do you think all girls in South Korea have had plastic surgery?"

"I actually noticed, but I just couldn't believe it. You have such a good natural foundation; makeup just seems to have made your complexion look a little better..."

Zhou Wang shrugged.

Hearing Zhou Wang's praise, which seemed to be genuine, Kim Ji-soo, who had received many compliments before, pursed her lips to suppress the slight smile on her face.

She hesitated for a moment, then said, "You might need to cover for me. I need to sneak past in the corridor so they can't see me..."

"No, you have to come with me to see them."

Zhou Wang shook his head, walked over, took Kim Ji-soo's hand, and led her outside.

"Ah, this won't do, how can we..."

Kim Ji-soo's words came to an abrupt halt when Zhou Wang opened the door, because, without anyone noticing, several well-dressed, muscular young men were already standing in the corridor.

They were all dressed in matching, well-tailored black suits, and when they saw Zhou Wang appear, they bowed their heads slightly, as if to show goodwill.

Kim Ji-soo swallowed her words of resistance, and by the time she realized what was happening, the door to the opposite room had already been opened, and Zhou Wang led her inside without stopping.

It's still that private room with the best view by the window.

Apart from Rose, who left at the beginning, Lee Jung-jae, Kang Dong-won, and Jeon So-mi were still sitting in the private room, but judging from their subtle expressions, they were clearly not staying there voluntarily.

It was Xiao Wang who opened the door for Zhou Wang. After opening the door, he stepped aside, but did not leave the private room. Instead, he stood aside and continued to watch the group intently.

The three people in the room were completely bewildered when Xiao Wang barged in. After seeing the corridor blocked and their phones taken away, they thought that Kim Ji-soo's parents had offended some gang, which led to the bar being surrounded. It wasn't until Zhou Wang walked in that they realized what had happened.

To everyone's surprise, Zhou Wang walked in holding Kim Ji-soo's hand.

Kim Ji-soo was also confused, or rather, she didn't react at first. When she saw the strange looks in Lee Jung-jae's and the others' eyes, she subconsciously tried to struggle, but Zhou Wang held her tightly and she couldn't break free at all.

Not only that, after Zhou Wang sat down on the sofa with a flourish, he also put his arm around her waist and pulled her into his embrace.

Kim Ji-soo noticed that Zhou Wang's arm around her had moved to the moon, and she immediately stopped moving.

...A simple hug might not seem like a big deal, but if Zhou Wang were to grope you inappropriately at a time like this, it would be incredibly embarrassing.

Meeting the stunned gazes of the people in the room, Zhou Wang said calmly, "So you've all been bought off by Park Jung-woon, haven't you? You didn't even react when you saw me, the real chairman?"

The three of them finally came to their senses, and even Jiang Dongyuan had to quickly stand up and bow to Zhou Wang.

"President Zhou!"

Zhou Wang squinted at the group, then took a bottle of mineral water from the table and handed it to Kim Ji-soo.

Kim Ji-soo was indeed parched and was slightly touched by Zhou Wang's thoughtful gesture. However, after she unscrewed the bottle and took a sip of water, she found that Zhou Wang shamelessly took the bottle and drank from it. Her small moment of gratitude vanished immediately.

She gave a soft, embarrassed snort and couldn't help but reach out and poke Zhou Wang.

Only then did she realize that Zhou Wang had simply handed her the bottle of water because he didn't have a free hand to unscrew the cap.

Zhou Wang ignored her little actions, and after taking a few sips of water, he gestured for the three of them to sit down again.

He first turned his gaze to Jeon Somi.

This female singer, with her typical bright and beautiful mixed-race features, was indeed stunningly beautiful. Although this was their second meeting, Zhou Wang still couldn't help but be amazed.

"Somi, I don't care what conditions Park Jung-woon offered you. Put aside all your thoughts, and I can pretend nothing happened... Jeon So-mi?"

Zhou Wang was speaking when he suddenly noticed that Jeon Somi in front of him was a little distracted, as if she was staring at Kim Jisoo. He couldn't help but frown.

"Yes, I'm sorry, President, I didn't mean to get distracted..."

Jeon Somi snapped out of her daze and apologized somewhat flusteredly.

Did you hear me?

Jeon Somi hesitated for a moment, but after glancing at Xiao Wang standing behind Zhou Wang, she nodded.

"I understand, President."

"Of course, if you're not satisfied with the status quo, my lawyer is waiting downstairs. You can go down and sign the contract he brought, and I guarantee your acting career will take a leap forward."

For a "minor character" like Jeon Somi, Zhou Wang felt that those two sentences were enough, so he waved his hand to signal that she could leave.

Jeon Somi seemed to have something to say but hesitated, but in the end she picked up her bag and phone and quickly left the private room.

After Jeon Somi left, Joo Wang turned his gaze to Lee Jung-jae. Meeting Joo Wang's amused gaze, Lee Jung-jae unconsciously became a little nervous and subconsciously got up to pour Joo Wang a drink...
