Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
On the 20th floor of the Shilla Hotel!
As soon as Park Hye-shin’s voice fell, everyone in the banquet hall was immediately stunned. A middle-aged man with an elegant demeanor and dressed in an incomparably gentlemanly manner stood up and said, “Director Park, I wonder what kind of person is able to make the Park family pay so much attention to him.”
Having said this, he smiled once again. “Of course, I’ll definitely do my best to find this person for you, Director Park.”
Although the other party looked extremely polished, he was the leader of the largest gang organization in Seoul, Nameless Zhao. He had thousands of members under him. It could be said that no movement on the streets of Korea could be hidden from him.
Upon hearing this, everyone could not help but look at Park Hye-shin. They were secretly curious about who the Park family was looking for.
Park Hui Xin scanned the crowd and then took out a photo of Qian Qian. She said slowly, “The Park family is looking for a little girl. She’s the one in the photo. Her name is Qian Qian. She is about four or five years old and is from China. She appeared on the streets of Guro-gu three days ago!”
“A little girl from China?”
Everyone was stunned when they heard that.
They had thought that Park Hye-shin was looking for someone from the Park family or someone who had offended the Park family. They did not expect it to just be a little kid.
“Director Park, may I know what’s the relationship between this little girl and you?” An old man wearing a brocade robe and black-rimmed glasses stood up as his eyes shone brightly.
If one looked carefully, one would find a trace of shock in the depths of his eyes, but there was even more ecstasy.
“Professor Lu, this little girl is a member of our Park family. She was exiled to China in her early years…” Park Hye-shin said expressionlessly.
This was the excuse that she had prepared beforehand.
At this point, she added, “Everyone, this matter is very important to our Park family. Please, after this matter is completed, we are willing to pay a billion US dollars as a reward!”
Once these words were uttered, the entire venue exploded in an uproar.
A billion US dollars!
If it were converted to Korean currency, it would be a trillion won!
…
At the same time, on the 21st floor of the Shilla Hotel!
As Ye Chen chewed on the food on the table, he used his Divine Consciousness to filter the banquet hall downstairs. When he saw that Park Hye-shin had offered a one billion US dollar reward to find Qian Qian, he nodded to himself.
Chi Wanqing sat next to Ye Chen at a close distance. She lowered her head and looked at him secretly from time to time.
It had been about half an hour since she came in.
Ye Chen had never shown any rudeness. Even when he looked at her occasionally, there was no lust in his eyes. It was as if he really did not have any excessive intention toward her.
Her tensed heart gradually calmed down. She could not help but summon up the courage to ask, “Mr. Ye, are you really Chinese?”
“Of course, I’m from Qiannan!” Ye Chen smiled slightly and asked, “What about you?”
After hearing this, Chi Wanqing finally believed that he was from China. She could not help but smile and say, “I…I’m from Guangdong Province, but I haven’t returned to my hometown for nearly 20 years.”
“Why not?” Ye Chen could not help but look at her.
Chi Wanqing pursed her red lips slightly and changed the topic, “Then, what business do you have in Korea?”
She had lived in Korea for nearly twenty years, but this was the first time she was seeing Ye Chen. Logically speaking, since Ye Chen was a VIP, she should have more or less heard of him since she was in the entertainment industry.
“I’m not doing business in Korea.” Ye Chen chuckled and shook his head. “In fact, this is my first time coming to Korea. If I wasn’t looking for someone, I probably wouldn’t have come!”
“Someone?” Chi Wanqing’s pretty face froze. She could not help but ask, “May I know who you’re looking for?”
After saying this, she seemed to feel that she had asked too many questions. She hurriedly waved her hand and said, “If you aren’t willing to tell me, it’s fine.”
Ye Chen thought for a moment, then took out his phone and took out a photo of Qian Qian. He placed it in front of her and smiled. “I’m looking for the little girl in the photo.”
Chi Wanqing could not help but look over and was completely stunned.
…
On the 20th floor of the hotel, Park Hye-shin’s one-billion USD reward had completely shocked many people present. For a moment, they asked Park Hye-shin for the photo and patted their chests to guarantee that they would do their best to look for the missing person.
However, there were people who did not care about the one billion USD.
At this moment, a handsome young man in a suit stood up and looked at Park Hye-shin. “Director Park, I, Wenjie, have something to ask you.”
As soon as he said that, everyone’s eyes fell on him, and the crowd immediately exploded.
“It’s Young Master Kim from the Kin Family!”
“I didn’t expect him to come to this banquet!”
“It’s not strange that he came. After all, Director Park’s son, Han Ziming, used to be on good terms with Young Master Kim.”
Park Hye-shin nodded slightly at Kim Wenjie’s words.
“Excuse me!” Kim Wenjie walked out from the crowd and asked in a cynical manner, “I heard that there was an expert from China who charged into your Park family residence yesterday. I wonder if it’s true.”
The moment these words were said, everyone’s expressions froze. They could not help but look at Park Hye-shin in unison. They had also heard about the news of the disturbance at the Park family residence. However, they did not dare believe it. After all, the Park family was a wealthy family in Korea.
Park Hye-shin’s expression changed slightly when she met everyone’s gazes. She immediately nodded and said, “That’s right. Such a thing indeed did happen!”
Her confession shocked everyone.
“It’s rumored that this expert is the strongest person in China, Mad Southern Ye. Is that true?” Kim Wenjie revealed a know-it-all expression.
“No!” Park Hui Xin immediately shook her head and said, “It’s not Mad Southern Ye. Instead, it is the expert who serves my husband, Han Dongsheng—Fu Wanlong. This person attempted to help my husband and seize power. Therefore, he slaughtered his way into the Park family residence. However, he was killed by Master Jindo!”
“Fu Wanlong?”
Upon hearing this name, everyone was slightly stunned.
However, someone seemed to have thought of something and subconsciously said, “Is he President Han’s subordinate, also widely known as Uncle Long?”
“That’s right!” Park Hye-shin nodded and said.
That person repeatedly nodded. “It’s rumored that Fu Wanlong was considered a powerful expert in China a few decades ago. After he was subdued by President Han, he only listened to his orders. Then, this can’t be wrong!”
Kim Wenjie immediately revealed a look of realization.
In fact, they also knew that Han Dongsheng and Park Huixin were not on good terms. Han Dongsheng had an expert like Fu Wanlong to support him, so that could explain why he wanted to seize power.
“Alright, everyone, the matter is settled. I still have something to do, so I’ll excuse myself first.” After a round of toasting and exchanging pleasantries, Park Hye-shin left hurriedly after saying these words.
After she left, the others also felt that there was no point in staying, so they left one after another. Even Kim Wenjie was no exception.
When he walked into the elevator, he was surprised to find two women. He could not help but ask, “Why are you here?”
It was Cui Suyuan and Li Mengqi.
“Young Master Kim!”
Cui Suyuan and Li Mengqi were shocked at first, then they greeted him respectfully and said, “Young Master Kim, we just came down from upstairs and are about to go back.”
“Upstairs?” Kim Wenjie raised his head and looked at the ceiling, his face full of disbelief. “Do you think you both deserve to go to the 21st floor of the Shilla Hotel?”
The Shilla Hotel had a total of 21 floors, and the 21st floor was never open to the public, except one was the direct descendant of the Park family.
“We were invited by the Park family to meet a VIP on the 21st floor.” Cui Suyuan did not dare to hesitate and explained everything. Then, she said, “Right, Chi Wanqing is also on the 21st floor.”
“Chi Wanqing?” Kim Wenjie’s expression immediately changed.
As the young master of the Jin family, he relied on his illustrious family background. Although he had played with countless women, he ran into a wall with Chi Wanqing. Regardless of whether it was his coercion or enticement, this woman was not moved at all.
Who would have thought that she would actually appear here to accompany some other guy?
“Yes, that VIP chased us out and left Wanqing alone up there,” Li Mengqi echoed, but there was a look of Schadenfreude between her brows.
At first, the two of them were unhappy that Ye Chen had chased them out. However, when they saw Kim Wenjie, the anger in their hearts disappeared.
They knew about Kim Wenjie and Chi Wanqing. It could be said that Kim Wenjie completely treated Chi Wanqing as his exclusive property and would not allow anyone to touch her.
“Lead me upstairs!” Kim Wenjie’s expression turned completely dark. He could not help but sneer, “I want to see what kind of VIP dares to touch the woman I like!”
