Peninsula: I, a chaebol! I will never follow hidden rules.

Chapter 227 Pei Fried Chicken [Two in One, Please Subscribe]

Whether happy or not, Lin's father couldn't do anything about Li Zhixuan. Instead of getting angry, it would be better for him to comfort himself and save his daughter from being sad.

On the other side, Lin Yuna pinched the scumbag several times to help her father vent his anger.

After a while, dinner was served.

Father Lin really didn't want to see Li Zhixuan, but for Lin Yuna, he pretended to know nothing and even chatted with Li Zhixuan while eating breakfast.

As they were chatting, Min Zaicheng suddenly said, "Senior, you're going to be promoted to director soon. Do you want to celebrate?"

"Promoted to director?" Lin Yuner was stunned, then looked at her father with surprise: "Dad, you are going to be promoted to director?"

Li Zhixuan asked in confusion: "What director?"

"Huh?" Lin's father and Min Zaicheng were both stumped by Li Zhixuan's question.

What's the point? After all this fuss, he still doesn't know what I (the senior) do?

Good fellow! You slept with someone's daughter, but you don't even know what she was doing. Aren't you taking her too seriously?
Min Zaicheng was a little surprised, and when he looked at Lin's father, his expression had turned a little ugly.

Seeing this, Lin Yuner quickly explained to Li Zhixuan: "My father is now the deputy director of the Personal Taxation Bureau under the National Tax Service."

"Oh! So Uncle Lin is an official!" Li Zhixuan suddenly realized, and thought in his heart: Min Zaicheng is forty-nine years old this year, and he calls his future father-in-law "senior", so this future father-in-law can't be over fifty-three years old at most.

The legal retirement age for civil servants in South Korea is 60 for both men and women. So, my future father-in-law can still work for at least seven years.

In seven years, it shouldn't be that hard to get promoted to the position of Director of the National Tax Service. With good management skills, Minister of Finance, or even higher, is not impossible!

A chaebol! Can a chaebol be called a chaebol if he doesn’t have his own people in the government? Li Zhixuan doesn’t have his own people in the government at the moment, but isn’t Lin’s father his own person who has come to him?

He has a "hostage" in hand, so he doesn't have to worry about Lin's father being disobedient. (ω)
Thinking of this, Li Zhixuan's face lit up with joy as he picked up the glass of milk in front of him and said, "Uncle Lin, congratulations on your promotion. I'll toast you with milk instead of wine."

After saying that, he drank the milk in one gulp.

Seeing this, Lin Yuner immediately stood up and helped Li Zhixuan pour a cup of hot milk. On the other side, Lin's father suddenly felt like he was being targeted by a thief.

Min Zaicheng also realized that his new boss probably had no good intentions. Thinking that because his daughter fell into the hands of a "thief", Lin's father had no choice but to follow him into the "den of thieves", Min Zaicheng couldn't help laughing.

"Hahaha! Senior, I'll toast you too."

Faced with his good friend's gloating, Lin's father looked at him speechlessly, then picked up his glass of milk and drank it depressedly.

Seeing this, Lin Yuner hurriedly poured milk for the two of them, and at the same time looked at her father and asked, "Dad, why didn't you tell me about your promotion? Uncle Min knew about it, but I didn't. I'm your daughter. Did you tell unnie?"

Faced with his daughter's dissatisfaction, feeling that she might have betrayed him, Father Lin could only hastily explain, "You're all very busy, and this isn't a big deal, so I didn't tell you. Besides, I won't officially get promoted until next week, so it won't be too late to tell you then."

"No matter how busy we are, we won't be able to take care of you! I'll call my sister later. Where should we go to celebrate tonight? Should we invite relatives and friends?"

"Don't!"

Lin's father has been working as the deputy director for five or six years. He finally got a promotion. Lin Yuner was particularly happy for her father and subconsciously wanted to celebrate well, invite more people, and make it lively.

But Li Zhixuan didn't think so. He believed that no matter what he did, the lower his profile, the better. Only by keeping a low profile can one make a fortune. Being too high-profile can easily attract envy and even become a target of public criticism.

So, he quickly raised his hand to reject his girlfriend's proposal, and then explained to Lin's father, "I think there's no need to celebrate this kind of thing in a big way. Just celebrate with your family. After you take office, you can invite your colleagues, subordinates, and the former director to have a meal together. The higher the position, the more low-key you should be. What do you think?"

Publicly, Lin's father was Li Zhixuan's temporary political spokesperson; privately, Lin's father was likely his future father-in-law. So no matter what the reason, he should consider Lin's father.

Father Lin was aware of this and nodded, saying, "Yeah, I thought so too. Call Yunzhen back tonight and we can celebrate together as a family of three."

"A family of three", Lin's father even put emphasis on these four words.

Li Zhixuan understood what was going on as soon as he heard it. Father Lin just didn't want him to come again.

So, he suddenly felt like he had shot himself in the foot, and then turned his head to look at Yoona with a little expression asking for help.

Seeing this, Lin's father immediately gave Lin Yuner a warning look.

Lin Yuner was in a dilemma. After a little hesitation, she decided to lower her head to eat. At the same time, she secretly pointed at Min Jae-sung with her left hand under the table to show Li Zhixuan.

Li Zhixuan understood instantly and immediately looked at Lin's father and asked, "Where's Uncle Min? Aren't you two good friends for decades? Aren't you planning on not inviting him?"

This……

Obviously, if only the three of the Lin family were celebrating together tonight, Li Zhixuan would have no trouble finding a reason to come, but if Min Zaicheng was invited, there would be one outsider, and then there would be two outsiders.

Father Lin saw through their little tricks very clearly. He turned his head and glanced at Min Zaicheng, and immediately came up with a reason: "Didn't we drink together to celebrate last night? Don't invite him tonight."

"Uh……"

Li Zhixuan was at a loss and could only look to Min Zaicheng for help.

In response to this, Min Zaicheng helplessly spread his hands: "If they don't invite me, I can't force my way in, right?"

"Oh! All right!"

Seeing that Li Zhixuan had finally given up, Lin's father felt that he had let him down, and his mood immediately improved a lot. He even ate breakfast more deliciously than before.

Min Jae-sung also thought that Li Zhixuan had given up, but only Lin Yuna knew that her scumbag would definitely think of other ways.

Not long after, the four of them finished their breakfast, packed up, and it was time to go to work.

"Yoona, let's go. Daddy will take you to work today."

"Okay, thank you dad."

Lin Yuna didn't dare to disagree, and even acted coquettishly to her father.

Li Zhixuan didn't think there was anything wrong with this. After all, he could understand that Lin's father needed to find an opportunity to give his daughter some instructions.

Afterwards, Li Zhixuan and Min Zaicheng left first.

Now that there were no outsiders around, Father Lin looked at his precious daughter.

Lin Yoona felt guilty and was afraid of being questioned and blamed, so she avoided looking at her father.

Seeing this, Father Lin sighed inwardly and asked, "Have you been happy recently?"

It was a caring tone. Lin Yuner breathed a sigh of relief, then looked up at her father's eyes and nodded vigorously: "Very happy."

"Okay, just be happy. But if you feel unhappy someday, remember to tell Daddy, don't keep it to yourself, understand?" "Yeah!"

Facing her father's loving eyes and compromising attitude, Lin Yuner couldn't hold it in any longer. With a sore nose, she cried and threw herself into her father's arms: "Thank you, Dad!"

Seeing his daughter crying, Father Lin quickly patted her back and said softly, "Silly girl, what are you thanking me for? Stop crying. Let's go. Daddy will take my precious daughter to work."

"Uh-huh!"

At the same time, on the other side, Min Zaicheng followed Li Zhixuan to Xingji Entertainment.

Now the companies of Xuanyao Group have not been officially established yet, and there are many things that need to be discussed and handled by Li Zhixuan and Min Zaicheng, so Li Zhixuan first arranged an office and an assistant for Min Zaicheng in Xingji Entertainment, so that they can meet immediately if there is anything.

After settling Min Jae-sung, he was busy writing a report, and Li Zhixuan also went back to the office to write a plan. As a result, when he passed by the assistant's office, he saw Bae Joo-hyun chatting with Zhang Yuanna.

"Let's go to my office."

"Ah."

Soon, the two arrived at Li Zhixuan's office. After closing the door, they first had a passionate kiss.

After the kiss, Bae Joo Hyun let go of Li Zhixuan, then took a step back, looked into his eyes and asked, "You haven't come back since you sent Yoona-unnie home last night. Did you stay over at Yoona-unnie's house?"

"Ah."

My heart tightened! Pei Zhuxuan's whole body was tense.

"So, you...you guys..."

Bae Joo-hyun didn't dare to ask the question she wanted to ask because she was afraid of hearing the answer she didn't want to hear.

Seeing this, Li Zhixuan interrupted her and said, "This doesn't count as meeting the parents, at least not formally. If you feel uncomfortable, then find an opportunity to take me to Daegu, how about that?"

Call ~
The Queen immediately breathed a sigh of relief, completely relaxed. She then walked over to the sofa and sat down, waving her hand and saying casually, "No need. We're not a good match. There's no point in me taking you home. This is fine as it is."

Hearing this, Li Zhixuan was unhappy. He immediately went over and hugged the Queen and asked, "So you don't want to be a chaebol wife? You have to be ambitious."

Ambition?

Hearing these two words, Bae Joo Hyun showed a helpless expression: "Do you really want to see me and Yoona fight?"

"That's definitely not the case. But if you don't have any ambition and keep going on like this, in ten years, you'll just be idol Bae Joo-hyun. That's not good, right?"

"So what if it's not good? I'm almost 25, and I've been a trainee for five years and an idol for one year. My life is basically filled with being an idol. It's really hard to learn new things now."

"As a screenwriter, I'm already learning to be a boss and striving to become a chaebol. You're a year younger than me, so why can't you learn new things?"

Li Zhixuan was telling the truth, the absolute truth.

But this sounded like nonsense to Pei Zhuxuan, and she couldn't help but roll her eyes at the scumbag: "You were born into a noble family, how can our situations be the same? What kind of education did you receive as a child? What kind of education did I receive as a child?"

This statement was not without reason, and Li Zhixuan was truly unhappy to hear it. "Are kings, princes, generals, and ministers truly of the same species? Besides, what are chaebols considered to be? As for your childhood education, it can't be said to be useless, but so what? There aren't many bigwigs who came from humble backgrounds."

That makes sense! But I, the bunny queen, still choose to lie down!

"Anyway, I'm not interested in new things. My family is just an ordinary one that runs a restaurant. It's great that I can become a star. That's all."

Li Zhixuan was truly helpless in the face of this unmotivated girlfriend, but he still continued to persuade her earnestly: "A restaurant can also be turned into a catering group. Why are you so easily resigned to your fate?"

At this point, before Pei Zhuxuan could react, Li Zhixuan's eyes lit up: "That's right! Your family runs a restaurant, why don't you invest in the catering industry? Creating a chain brand wouldn't be bad!"

"Uh... there's a huge difference between opening a restaurant and creating a restaurant chain, right?"

Bae Joo-hyun felt that Li Zhixuan's proposal was not reliable at all.

In response, Li Zhixuan quickly said, "No, no, no! Everything is difficult at the beginning, but as long as you take the first step, it will get easier and easier."

Is that right?

Bae Joo-hyun thought about it for a while and was somewhat persuaded.

"My parents are pretty good at making Korean food, and they're especially good at making fried chicken. I learned from them. How about... investing in a fried chicken chain?"

"Yes, fast food like fried chicken and burgers is still very attractive. Coupled with your star power, it should be very popular at least in the early stages. Later on, it will rely on good quality and low prices to attract people."

"no!"

"Why?" Li Zhixuan thought that Pei Zhuxuan was against the future fried chicken brand taking the "high quality and low price" route that could lead to rapid development, so he was very puzzled.

Pei Zhuxuan pouted and explained, "I have a contract with Shamao. If I want to use my celebrity status to do business, I need to give Shamao shares."

"Oh! Are you worried about that? Just give it to us. They'll have to help us promote the shares after they get them."

"Uh..." A hint of embarrassment flashed across Pei Zhuxuan's face, and then she raised her right hand and opened her palm, explaining in a guilty whisper: "Fifty-fifty."

"So much?! Are you crazy about money, idiot?"

“I hadn’t planned on doing business before, so I just signed.”
Fifty percent is definitely not acceptable, it’s too high.

Soon, Li Zhixuan came up with an idea.

"Do you believe me?"

"Why are you so serious all of a sudden?" Bae Joo-hyun felt a little nervous when Li Zhixuan looked at her.

"If you believe me, then..."

Before Li Zhixuan could explain, Pei Zhuxuan suddenly understood something, so she reached out and covered the scumbag's mouth, saying, "You can be my boss first, and when my contract with the idiot expires, you can return the shares to me. Is that what you mean?"

"Yes. I'd also like you to be my spokesperson."

"Sure. But I've only been in the industry for a year, so I don't have much money."

"You take 60%, I take 40%, and we'll open the first store first."

"make a deal!"
