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

Early in the morning, Kim Sae-ron flew back to Seoul from Jeju Island because Star Entertainment had contacted her agency and wanted to invite her to star in a movie.

For work, Kim Sae-ron had to say goodbye to her boyfriend. To avoid hurting him, she promised to return to Jeju Island as soon as the work was settled.

Around noon, the business deal was finalized. Kim Sae-ron was about to head to the airport for her flight to Jeju Island, but just as she was about to leave—the sky fell!

[Actor Kim Mo-hyun's photos of him with two women at a nightclub have been exposed!]

[A classmate revealed that actor Kim Mo-hyun was an alcoholic and smoker during high school, and even set fire to the school's flowerbed!]

[Kim Moo-hyun privately contacted underage fans! Chat logs exposed!]

[A well-known entertainment reporter reveals! Actor Kim Mo-hyun was dating multiple girlfriends simultaneously!]

Actor Kim Mo-hyun has been exposed for having plastic surgery!

[Actor Kim Mo-hyun's manager arrested for allegedly molesting multiple women!]

[A well-known journalist reveals actor Kim Mo-hyun has close ties with violent criminal organizations!]

Kim Soo-hyun's true and false scandals were suddenly exposed, and he dominated the trending topics list.

Faced with this situation, Kim Sae-ron's first reaction was that her oppa had been framed, and that someone must be jealous of how popular her oppa was!
But when photos, videos, and chat logs were presented to her, she had no choice but to believe them.

Following this, Kim Soo-hyun's agency, KE Entertainment, released a statement announcing the termination of its contract with Kim Soo-hyun and demanding that he pay a penalty for breach of contract, otherwise the company would sue him in court.

This announcement was like a signal to launch a full-scale attack. Various brands that endorsed Kim Soo-hyun followed suit, announcing the termination of their contracts with him and offering compensation.

The film "Real," which had just been launched and announced to star Kim Soo-hyun, has also announced a project delay and is seeking compensation from Kim Soo-hyun.

Some media outlets have calculated that Kim Soo-hyun will have to pay over 50 billion South Korean won in damages for breach of contract, far exceeding his current net worth. It is expected that Kim Soo-hyun will declare bankruptcy.

South Korean celebrities also sensed something was wrong and began unfollowing Kim Soo-hyun on social media.

In less than two hours, Kim Soo-hyun went from a big star to a pariah.

And it's not just in South Korea, but also in China, Japan, and Southeast Asian countries. Wherever Do Min-joon from "My Love from the Star" became popular, Kim Soo-hyun is now considered unpopular.

Where was Kim Soo-hyun at this time? He was writing a statement, or rather, a speech for a press conference.

Right after Kim Sae-ron left his side, Bae Yong-joon found him and asked him a question: "Do you still want to live?"

After finding out what had happened, the guy was so scared that he collapsed to the ground, tears and snot streaming down his face, wailing loudly.

This time I cried for real, without needing to drink water to rehydrate.

He felt fear and regret, but he only regretted his impulsive words against the couple last night. He also regretted contacting gangsters to retaliate against them.

If he hadn't done that last night, would things have turned out differently?

Such a person will never know why he died!
Halfway through writing his statement, Kim Soo-hyun wiped away his tears with his sleeve, then looked up at Bae Yong-joon sitting opposite him, who was supervising him, and choked out, "Teacher, I can't afford this much penalty for breach of contract. Could you lend me some?"

"Achoo!" Bae Yong-joon caught a cold from the cold and sneezed before he could even speak. Then he felt a chill and shivered involuntarily.

He quickly took a sip of hot coffee and felt a little better. Then, with a livid face, he looked at Kim Soo-hyun and asked, "If I lend it to you, how are you going to pay me back?"

"I……"

Kim Soo-hyun knew very well that his career as a star was over, and it would be extremely difficult for him to find work afterward. How could he possibly have the ability to repay the money?

"Ding~" "Ding~"

Suddenly, Kim Soo-hyun's phone rang twice. He picked it up and saw a text message from the bank informing him that his account had received a transfer of 300 million South Korean won.

The other message was from Kim Sae-ron on a messaging app: "Oppa, this is the last time I'll call you that. This is all I can do for you. Let's break up! Goodbye, Kim Soo-hyun."

"Give it back!"

"what?"

Kim Soo-hyun was engrossed in reading the text message from Kim Sae-ron, completely unaware that Bae Yong-joon had appeared beside him. So when Bae Yong-joon suddenly spoke, Kim Soo-hyun jumped in surprise and almost dropped his phone.

"What...what did you say?"
"I'm telling you to give the money back!" Bae Yong-joon's face was terribly grim as he faced the trembling Kim Soo-hyun.

Kim Soo-hyun was completely unconvinced: "This was given to me by Sae-ron, why should I return it?"

Seeing that he still dared to talk back, Bae Yong-joon couldn't help but clench his fist!

If it weren't for the press conference scheduled for tomorrow, where Kim Soo-hyun would have to make an appearance, Bae Yong-joon would have attacked the moment he saw Kim Soo-hyun!

Putting aside the economic losses caused by Kim Soo-hyun, and the fact that Kim Soo-hyun offended the Seven Star Gang and the Lee family, just the fact that he was forced to stand in the cold wind in the mountains for nearly two hours by Lee Chi-hyun is enough to warrant a severe beating from Kim Soo-hyun!
This bastard still dares to talk back!
Bae Yong-joon was so angry that he started trembling all over!

Suddenly, he remembered something. It was winter, and when Kim Soo-hyun went to press conferences, he would cover himself up completely except for his hands and face.

So, isn't it enough to just not slap him in the face?
"boom!"

"what!"

Caught completely off guard by Bae Yong-joon's sudden punch, Kim Soo-hyun screamed and collapsed to the ground clutching his chest.

Immediately afterward, Bae Yong-joon straddled him and punched him twice more, yelling as he did so, "You stupid brat! Don't you understand why you ended up like this?"

"Don't hit me! Don't hit me!" Kim Soo-hyun didn't dare to resist and could only quickly beg for mercy, "I know I shouldn't have lost my temper with Young Master Lee last night, and I shouldn't have asked the gangsters to teach him a lesson. I know I was wrong."

"Idiot!" *Bang!*

"Ah puff!"

Kim Soo-hyun was punched in the stomach again, and he vomited up all the acid in his stomach.

Bae Yong-joon showed no sign of stopping, continuing his revenge while shouting, "Who do you think Young Master Zhixuan is? Do you think he'd retaliate against you just because you said a few harsh words to him? A few gangsters, why would he need to retaliate like this against you?!"

You stupid, reckless idiot! How dare you date a minor?! Huh?!

Because of this? It's actually because of this? Is this some kind of rare occurrence in South Korea? Are their chaebols really that clean?
Kim Soo-hyun found it hard to believe, then looked at Bae Yong-joon and blurted out, "Isn't your girlfriend thirteen years younger than you?"

Damn it! How dare this bastard talk back?!

"But she's an adult!" Bae Yong-joon blushed, instantly becoming furious and punching Kim Soo-hyun in the face!

"what!"

……

Meanwhile, Li Zhixuan's girlfriends continued filming the show, except for Bae Joo-hyun. Bae Joo-hyun felt a bit heavy today and didn't want to move. She had a doctor check-up but there was nothing wrong, so she decided to rest.

After resting at the resort for half a day, she felt bored again.

"Oppa, come with me to the beach."

Li Zhixuan was preparing lunch for Pei Zhuxuan when he heard this. He immediately replied, "No, it's windy at the beach. What if you catch a cold? You definitely can't not take medicine, but what if taking medicine affects the baby?"

Upon hearing this, Bae Joo-hyun immediately sat back down on the sofa obediently: "Then let's forget about it."

Although it's a bit boring, it's not unbearable for the sake of the children. It's nice to stay home, browse the internet, and enjoy the scenery.

With that thought in mind, Bae Joo-hyun quickly adjusted her mindset.

But Li Zhixuan felt that this was not a good idea.

Pregnancy isn't like going to jail. Is it really necessary to be afraid of this today and worried about that tomorrow?

If a mother is in a bad mood, how can her child be in a good mood?
After thinking for a moment, he took out his phone and made a call: "Go prepare a motorhome, the kind with large windows, put on privacy film, and call a reliable driver."

Upon hearing this, Bae Joo-hyun's expression instantly brightened as she sat on the sofa. She stood up and ran cheerfully to Lee Chi-hyun, who quickly stepped forward and hugged her.

"Thank you, Oppa~" Bae Joo-hyun's face was flushed as she looked up at her man and gave him a sweet look.

So kawaii!

"Smack!"

Li Zhixuan lowered his head and pecked Bae Joo-hyun's pink lips, then said softly, "Is it okay to look at the scenery from inside the car? If we come across a particularly beautiful place, we can get out and play for a while, but don't stay there for too long."

Bae Joo-hyun nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes! I'll wear a hat and mask, and dress warmly, so I definitely won't catch a cold."

"Shall we set off after dinner?"

"Mmm, thank you, Ou..."

Halfway through her sentence, Bae Joo-hyun suddenly stopped, then pouted slightly and looked into the scumbag's eyes, asking, "Lee Chi-hyun, now that it's just the two of us, can I call you husband?"

Seeing her pitiful look, Li Zhixuan chuckled inwardly, but on the surface he kept a straight face and said, "Don't ask such pointless questions in the future."

Bae Joo-hyun's heart sank. This wasn't allowed? She suddenly felt truly wronged.

Just as her eyes were about to redden, Li Zhixuan continued, "If you want to call out, then call out. Your question is unnecessary. Do you understand, wife?"

"What a nuisance!"

Bae Joo-hyun reached out and pinched the scumbag's face with both hands in revenge, then turned away angrily: "You were deliberately mean to me just now! I'm not going to be friends with you anymore!"

Li Zhixuan immediately hugged the tiny Pei Zhuxuan in his arms and coaxed, "How could I? Your husband loves you the most. *kiss*"

Bae Joo-hyun's lips curled into a happy smile, then she turned around, puffed out her cheeks, and said in a fierce tone, "Go cook! I want durian pizza!"

"Okay! I'll do it right away!"

……

The peninsula is not a peaceful place. The current situation on the peninsula in the world Li Zhixuan is in now is quite similar to that of the peninsula at the end of 2015 in the previous world.

It's probably still a dozen or so years before the big sword is used to cut through the ground. It's still a long time, but it's time to plan ahead.

Whether it's Star Entertainment, Hyunwoo Group, or the Lee Group that Lee Chi-hyun will inherit in the future, they are all based in South Korea.

Li Zhixuan may intend to transfer industries to China, but it's unlikely he'll be able to do so within the next ten or twenty years.

If the industries don't relocate, then he himself certainly can't leave either. His family will definitely have to stay in South Korea, at least most of them.

So, while accompanying Bae Joo-hyun on a trip to Jeju Island, Lee Chi-hyun wondered if he could move to Jeju Island to live in the future.

Jeju Island is the southernmost point of South Korean territory, about 500 kilometers from the North-South border and also about 500 kilometers from Shanghai.

If a real fight breaks out, Seoul will definitely be the first to get hit, and Lee Chi-heon could take this opportunity to run away with his family.

However, things will definitely be chaotic then. If Li Zhixuan wants to escape smoothly, he needs to maintain a certain level of control over Jeju Island.

Therefore, simply moving to Jeju Island is not enough; one must also turn Jeju Island into their own territory.

The way to turn Jeju Island into one's own territory is simple—investment.

By investing heavily, he made everyone on Jeju Island depend on Li Zhixuan for money and a living, thus naturally turning Jeju Island into his territory.

However, achieving this will not be easy. Fortunately, Li Zhixuan still has time to plan and take it slowly.

His first step is to establish a Jeju Island Specialty Products Center on Jeju Island, using the capabilities of Hyunwoo Mall to sell Jeju Island's specialty agricultural products, seafood, and industrial products throughout South Korea and even overseas.

If this can be accomplished, a significant portion of Jeju Island's farmers, fishermen, and small business owners will depend on Lee Chi-heon for their livelihood.

In addition, Hyunwoo Logistics will definitely need to increase its workforce significantly on Jeju Island.

This is a perfect opportunity for Li Zhixuan to recruit some thugs and gang members on Jeju Island.

Those who can be incorporated should be incorporated, those who cannot be incorporated should be taken away by Li Kanghuan, and if that doesn't work, the police should arrest them.

Li Zhixuan's achievement in Jeju Island is to eradicate organized crime as much as possible. With some publicity, he can win back some public support.

Li Kanghuan certainly wouldn't dare not cooperate on this point.

"Honey! Look over there!"

Lee Chi-hyun was lost in thought when he suddenly heard Bae Joo-hyun call his name. Snapping out of his reverie, he looked out the car window in the direction Bae Joo-hyun was pointing.

At the beach, the waves crashed and the wind was biting cold. A tall, beautiful woman was posing in various ways on the rocks, while a photographer was taking pictures of her from below.

Most importantly! This woman is wearing a bikini!
Good heavens! It's really resistant to the cold!

Just as Li Zhixuan was staring at the beautiful woman, Bae Zhuxuan smiled mischievously and pointed her phone camera at the scumbag: "Unnies! Look at him, he can't take his eyes off a sexy woman! Humph!"

"What the hell! Bae Joo-hyun! You framed me!"
