The Uncrowned King of the Peninsula

Chapter 47 Watching the Fire from the Other Bank
"Are you waiting for someone? Who is it?" asked Quan Enfei in confusion.

"It could be a scout from another company, a reporter from D Agency, a creditor—anyone," Pei Yongjun said slowly. "But I think it should be worth at least one news story."

"We're here, get out." He stepped on the brakes, parked the car on the side of the road, walked to the trunk, took out a black shoulder bag and held it in his hand.

"This is..." Quan Enfei got out of the car and looked at the big white sign hanging on the roadside shop with two big golden words written on it.

【Dayou】

Immediately below this is a line of slightly smaller red text.

【Real Estate Sales/Leasing/Consulting】

Dayou Real Estate, a newly emerging real estate giant in Seoul, is a store specializing in second-hand houses.

Pei Yongjun stood next to Quan Enfei, looked at her confused expression, and asked directly, "Do you have a boyfriend?"

"Huh?" Quan Enfei hurriedly shook her head, "No! Absolutely not!"

"That's offensive, just call me Oppa." He raised his hand and knocked on the glass door of the store, "Is anyone there?"

"Yes! Nim!" The clerk sitting behind the counter hurriedly stood up and walked over quickly. "What do you need?"

"Are there any apartments for rent nearby?" Pei Yongjun pointed in the direction they had just come from. "That area."

"Yes, yes, we have a lot of rooms here. It depends on what you need." The clerk looked at the two people standing together and said, "Excuse me, who are you..."

"Couple." Pei Yongjun said calmly.

"Ah," the clerk nodded, a business smile on his face, "You two are a perfect match."

Concubine Kwon said nothing, seemingly calm with her hands clasped in vain, but her earlobes were secretly red, and she secretly glanced at Pei Yongjun beside her.

------

"Mr. Pei, there are quite a lot of apartments available for rent in this area." The agent from Dayou Real Estate introduced while driving.

Bae Young-joon and Kwon Eun-bi sat in the back seat. Ten minutes after leaving Park Young-sung's residence, the two took the agent's car and returned to the street.

"Which one is this?" He pointed to the apartment on the right where Park Yong-sung lived.

"This is a modern East Asian apartment. The quality is absolutely guaranteed, and the sound insulation is excellent. We have a listing up there. Would you like to take a look?"

"What about this?" Pei Yongjun didn't respond and pointed to the left again.

"This is the Maxim Apartments, built by a local developer. It's a bit more cost-effective and actually quite suitable for couples like you two. Would you like to take a look?"

"Eunfei, do you want to take a look?" He looked at Concubine Kwon.

"Ah? Group..." Kwon Eun-bi, who was sitting next to him, met his eyes and remembered their identities. She stammered and replied, "Oppa, let's take a look."

"Are there any four-story or five-story houses?" Pei Yongjun asked the agent.

"Let me see... yes, number 0487 is vacant." The agent pointed to an apartment on the left.

"Agent Li, let's take a look at this." Pei Yongjun nodded.

The agent stopped the car and led the two people into the apartment building.

----

"It's here, please." The agent pushed the door open and invited the two in.

Pei Yongjun followed him into the room and glanced around.

It's the most classic two-bedroom, one-living room layout, with very little furniture and old decoration. It doesn't look easy to rent.

"The house is five years old and the landlord has never lived there. Everything is new. It couldn't be better." The agent turned on the lights and enthusiastically introduced him. "Look, the lights are so bright. There must be nothing wrong with the things." "Really? But I don't really understand these things." Pei Yongjun pulled Quan Enfei from behind and pushed her in front of the agent. "Let's ask her. I'm going to the window to get some fresh air."

"Eunfei, take a good look. Oppa will listen to you." He patted her shoulder lovingly and lowered his voice, "Be picky and delay."

"Hmm? Oh, okay." Kwon Eun-bi felt the hot breath from his breath beside her ear, looked at the agent in front of her who had changed his target, and forced a smile.

"Miss, do you have any ideas?"

"I, I, I," Quan Enfei's eyes wandered around the almost empty room, and she finally managed a sentence, "Why is the light so bright?"

"Mo?" The agent's enthusiastic smile froze on his face.

Pei Yongjun left the two behind, walked slowly to the bedroom, opened the curtains and looked across.

In the modern East Asian apartment across the street, the curtains on the diagonally opposite window were not drawn, and a figure in the living room was pacing back and forth anxiously.

It was Park Yong-sung.

Pei Yongjun took out a pair of gloves from his arms and put them on, then took out a long box from his bag.

He looked around, turned around and stepped onto the windowsill, raised his hand to tear off the double-sided tape on the back of the box, and stuck it firmly to the sliding rail at the top of the curtain.

After wiping the dust off the window, Pei Yongjun opened the box and faced the window, then took out his cell phone from his pocket and pressed a few buttons.

A slight mechanical sound was heard, and a long lens extended from the box, facing the dark window of Park Yongcheng's living room opposite.

Then he took out a pack of tissues from his arms and carefully wiped off the footprints on the windowsill, along with a layer of dust. Then he pulled the curtains on both sides and shook them hard, then raised his hands to cover his mouth and nose.

With two whooshing sounds, dust flew all over the sky, covering the windowsill and obscuring all traces.

After the dust settled, Pei Yongjun walked out of the bedroom, but found that there was no one in the living room.

Following the sound, he walked to the bathroom door and found Quan Enfei there with the agent.

"Miss, don't you think this toilet is normal?"

"Where is it? Isn't the current very weak?"

"If it's not cleaned in one flush, you'll have to flush twice. Do you know how much that costs in water bills per month?"

Quan Enfei's face was serious and her tone was solemn. Her fingers poked the flush button again and again, making a clicking sound.

"This, this, this..." The agent's forehead was covered with sweat. Looking at Pei Yongjun who had reappeared, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. "Ah, Mr. Pei, what do you think of this house?"

"If that doesn't work, let's look at another house."

"No, let me think about it. Let's go back to the store first."

"Okay, okay." The agent walked very quickly this time, as if he was afraid of Quan Enfei's pickyness.

"Let's go." He waved his hand, and the two followed the agent away.

------

"Is it okay here?" Quan Enfei was a little nervous and stared at the store entrance cautiously.

The two were sitting in a booth by the window in a coffee shop. A few dozen meters away was Park Yong-sung's residence.

"Don't move, no one will notice." There was a laptop in front of Pei Yongjun, and the screen displayed was the footage captured by the camera he placed upstairs.

"Oh, okay." Kwon Eunbi quickly turned her head and stared at the coffee cup on the table obediently.
