Korean TV series: King of Peninsula 1997

Chapter 202 Uninvited Guests, Heroes in Their Old Age
A banquet is not always filled with only guests who enjoy communicating. After all, a banquet is a symphony that remains elegant throughout, with occasional discordant notes.

It's hard to imagine that in such an occasion, someone would get so angry over a trivial matter, and it's the kind of scene you see in third-rate movies or TV series.

"How do you do things? Can mistakes like this happen?"

After hearing this voice, Li You paused and a strange look appeared on his face.

This familiar voice was clearly that of Chen Xingjun, the third generation of Shunyang. Even the tone and attitude of his voice were very similar, still so arrogant and domineering.

Li You turned around and looked curiously at a place not far away. Chen Xingjun was standing by the table, pointing at a large stain on his body and asking, "What should I do with my clothes?"

Chen Xingjun stood there with stains on his fingers, like an actor about to perform a farce, performing his anger and arrogance with all his might.

The young waiter sitting opposite him was so panicked that he had to lower his head.

This plot, which actually came from a third-rate film or TV series, gave Li You an inexplicable sense of absurdity, and he began to sigh inwardly that he was worthy of being named Chen Xingjun.

Logically speaking, a waiter who caused trouble on an important occasion would be fired by the hotel afterwards, and there was no need for Chen Xingjun to take the initiative to speak up.

Chen Xingjun only needs to pretend to be magnanimous, take off his coat and comfort the waiter, and he can gain some good reputation and the favor of these celebrities in such occasions.

After all, people who are courteous to others are always welcome, even if these celebrities may not be good people.

Chen Xingjun's behavior not only ruins his own reputation, but also does not give face to Mou Zhengxiong, who is hosting the banquet.

Li You tilted his head and glanced at Mou Xianmin next to him. Her face was a little red, obviously because of the trouble Chen Xingjun caused in the banquet hall.

He thought about it, maybe because of the previous incident between Li You and Mou Xianmin, they didn't give Chen Xingjun face at the wedding.
But that was also caused by the provocation of the playboy Chen Xingjun.

Li You exhaled, fixed his eyes on Chen Xingjun's face with round-framed glasses, and whispered, "Let's go over there."

I still have to be the legendary protagonist who stops the dandy villain.

"Our Shunyang third generation Chen Xingjun, is only this tolerant?" Li You walked over calmly with Mou Xianmin, "Getting angry with a hotel waiter?"

Seeing Li You and Mou Xianmin coming over, Chen Xingjun laughed instead, "I was wondering who it was, coming over to meddle in other people's business."

"This is not meddling in other people's business," Li You didn't look at him again, but took advantage of the attention attracted by Chen Xingjun's trouble and raised Mou Xianmin's hand next to him.

"While everyone is looking over here, I'd like to announce to everyone." Li You grinned and deliberately raised his voice so that everyone nearby could hear him clearly, "Hyun Min and I will be engaged at the end of the year."

The people here had guessed this a long time ago. After all, since entering the venue, Mou Xianmin had been holding Li You's arm. Anyone could tell that they had a special relationship.

Congratulations suddenly rang out in the banquet hall, and the tense atmosphere originally caused by Chen Xingjun was instantly eased.

But Li You felt that if you beat a dog, you should chase it and beat it, otherwise it will bite back immediately. He looked at Chen Xingjun with a smile, "Do you think this is still a trivial matter?"

He looked at Chen Xingjun for a few times and shook his head slowly, "No matter in appearance or ability, you are not as good as Daojun. Even your temper is not as good as his. No wonder."

As soon as these words were spoken, the banquet hall fell into a brief silence again, followed by a burst of whispers.

"Who is Dojun?"

Someone whispered to him, "Chen Daojun is also from the third generation of Shunyang. He is said to be Chairman Chen Yangzhe's favorite grandson."

Although it was just a whisper, it was heard by everyone in the venue, and the scene became awkward for a moment.

Chen Xingjun's face turned red with anger. His eyes were not on Li You, but were scanning the crowd, looking for the person who had just spoken.

"Don't look for it anymore," Li You moved slightly to block his view, "The people here are not only guests of Xiancheng Daily, but also guests of the Kinmen Group."

He looked at Chen Xingjun coldly, "The situation in Shunyang doesn't seem to be very good. I guess your father, Vice President Chen Rongji, is not here to tell you to do this."

Chen Xingjun's Adam's apple moved. What Li You said was right. Chen Rongji also knew that Shunyang's situation was not good and he was looking for allies all over South Korea.

Mou Zhengxiong of Xiancheng Daily has a good relationship with Chen Rongji, so Chen Rongji sent Chen Xingjun to exchange ideas.

It’s just that Chen Xingjun was standing not far away and saw Li You and Mou Xianmin whispering to each other, and then he thought of the stupid woman at home, and he suddenly became angry.

If Li You knew his psychological process, he would definitely find that Chen Xingjun's symptoms were exactly the same as in the original drama, and his biggest characteristic was irritability.

He also has a strong sense of self-esteem, which is still motivating Chen Xingjun and not allowing him to retreat any further.

Under the gaze of everyone, Chen Xingjun opened his mouth, but just as he was about to speak, he was interrupted by Mou Zhengxiong who came over.

"Representative Chen, I will personally inform Vice President Chen Rongji about what happened today." Mou Zhengxiong looked at him coldly and said in an elder's manner, "Please go back."

His voice was not loud, but it clearly penetrated the noise at the scene and focused everyone's attention again. Mou Zhengxiong made up his mind not to have any dealings with Shunyang anymore. When he thought about Shunyang being handed over to such a person, he felt the sky was falling for Chen Yangzhe.

Chen Xingjun's expression became even more embarrassed after hearing Mou Zhengxiong's words. He clenched his fists, his knuckles turning white from the force, as if he was trying his best to suppress his inner anger and unwillingness.

The whispers and occasional strange looks from the guests around him were like invisible blades, cutting away at his already fragile self-esteem bit by bit.

He took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. He knew that continuing to make a scene here would only make himself more embarrassed.

With Chen Xingjun's departure, the atmosphere in the banquet hall became lively again, as if the previous incident had never happened.

But you have to know that most of the people who can attend this dinner are either rich or noble, or some socialites and brokers.

What happened here would soon reach the ears of Chen Yangzhe and even others.

The people around him dispersed, and Mou Zhengxiong sighed for his old friend. In fact, Chen Rongji was quite capable and was more than qualified to be a king who maintained the status quo.

But the problem was that Chen Rongji's health was not good either. Not long after Chen Yangzhe passed Shunyang to Chen Rongji, he would pass it to Chen Yangzhe.

So when Chen Daojun, who was younger and stronger than Chen Rongji, appeared, Chen Yangzhe's attention was immediately attracted to him.

Mou Zhengxiong smiled again and walked towards Li You and Mou Xianmin. "It seems that I don't need to take the initiative to speak. You have already revealed the news of your engagement."

Li You was not too upset, after all, he was just getting rid of Chen Xingjun.

"I just went with the flow," Li You nodded, "and it was all thanks to my uncle who smoothed things over."

"I was helping him to smooth things over," Mou Zhengxiong said with a smile, "If I hadn't come out to smooth things over, who knows what would have happened to Chen Xingjun today."

Li You looked at him with a smile. Mou Zhengxiong must have arrived a long time ago, but he just stood outside the crowd and didn't come over to take care of things.

"No matter what," Mou Zhengxiong said solemnly, "since the news has been released, we can't regret it."

"Dad?" Mou Xianmin blinked her eyes and said this with a strange look on her face, as if she had climbed up the social ladder.

Mou Xianmin looked at Li You. It seemed that she was indeed the one who hooked up with him.

"Of course there is no such possibility," Li You smiled and patted Mou Xianmin on the back, "Don't worry."

Mou Zhengxiong looked at Li You meaningfully, "I still have to greet other guests. If you are tired, go back. There is no need to stay here with these people."

He was afraid that Li You might misunderstand him, so he took the initiative to explain: "It's not that I don't want you to have more connections, but today's party is different from the one you held that day. These people are not only of no help, but will drag you down."

"I will invite some more guests later and set up a more private party."

Li You smiled and thanked Mou Zhengxiong, "Thank you very much, uncle."

The news spread extremely fast.

The next day, in the independent ward on the top floor of Shunyang Hospital, Chen Yangzhe was so angry that his eyes bulged out when he received the news.

"Rongji was delayed by this bastard!" Chen Yangzhe threw the cup to the ground, his face grim, "How could there be such a person in Shunyang?"

He looked at the secretary, Mr. Li, next to him, "Is he my grandson? Is he really our Shunyang Chen?"

As he spoke, Chen Yangzhe's eyes suddenly became confused.

Chen Yangzhe looked at Director Li with a horrified expression, "Who are you?"

"It's me," Director Li was obviously used to it. He smiled bitterly and said, "President Nim, I'm Li Mingxue, your secretary."

Li Mingxue lamented in his heart that Chen Yangzhe's condition was getting worse recently.

If you are calm, the medicine can still work for a long time, but once you are too excited, you will enter a state of dementia.

He first locked the door to prevent anyone from breaking in and seeing this scene, then he took out the medicine from his inside pocket and poured it into his palm.

"President Nim, it's time to take medicine."

"I don't want to take medicine!" Chen Yangzhe waved his hands, but finally took the medicine.

After a while, Chen Yangzhe came back to his senses.

He looked at Li Mingxue who was lowering his head in front of him, slowly closed his eyes, and held back the tears of humiliation.
