The Peninsula chaebol started by rescuing Samsung's little princess.

"How did you find this place?"

Li Haorong welcomed Li Zhixian into the office and placed a cup of coffee on the coffee table in front of her.

"Thanks!"

Li Zhixian first thanked him, and then answered Li Haorong's question:

"I saw your job posting in the newspaper, and the address was the same as the one used for the Korean star model, plus the phone number was yours, so I wanted to come and check it out!"

"So clever!"

Li Haorong offered a heartfelt compliment.

"I can't compare to you, Oppa. You're only a few years older than me, and you're already the president!"

Hearing Li Zhixian's heartfelt praise, Li Haorong's smile was harder to suppress than an AK!

"I'm also a new entrepreneur, and conditions are very basic. Look, I'm still all alone!"

"That's already amazing! Oppa, you're not only incredibly capable, but also a wonderful person. If you hadn't reminded me, I'm afraid I would have been scammed out of even more money!"

Lee Ji-hyun pursed her lips and said.

"You knew all along?"

"The police called me and said they had recovered some of the money I was scammed out of, about 10 yuan!"

This morning, after getting up, Li Zhixian was not in the mood to go to school or work. She first went to the school's business hall to pay her phone bill, and then called the police station back when she got to work.

She originally planned to call Li Haorong, but she accidentally saw Li Haorong's job posting in the newspaper, so she followed the clues and found Mars Technology.

Unexpectedly, the owner of this new company is Li Haorong!

During their last meal together, she only knew that Lee Ho-young was a graduate of Seoul National University; she never imagined he would become the president!

"We'll try to recover some of what we can, and maybe we can recover the rest in the future."

Li Zhixian nodded in response to Li Haorong's words of comfort, but did not say anything more.

Li Haorong was about to say something when his phone suddenly rang. He quickly answered it:

"Hey? Mr. Zhu? What's your decision? Where should we meet? How about the Shilla Hotel...?"

After answering the phone, Li Haorong gave Li Zhixian an apologetic look and then left the office.

Knowing that Li Haorong had something to deal with, Li Zhixian quietly stayed in the office, carefully looking around.

Compared to the offices of those domineering CEOs on TV, the decorations here are rather simple, with a bookcase behind the desk and a simple sofa, but Li Zhixian feels safe and comfortable.

She didn't fall asleep until 3 a.m. last night, and only slept for a total of four hours.

Sitting on the comfortable sofa, drowsiness suddenly overwhelmed Li Zhixian, and her eyelids drooped. She fell asleep in no time.

She didn't know how long she had slept, but when Li Zhixian regained consciousness, she was awakened by a delicious aroma.

"Slurp!"

She wiped the drool from the corner of her mouth and found a packaged seafood noodle dish in front of her.

"You're awake? The takeout just arrived, let's eat together!"

Li Haorong smiled and handed the tissue to Li Zhixian.

Lee Ji-hyun quickly took the paper and covered her blushing face while wiping her mouth.

Taishe is dead!

"Didn't you sleep well last night?"

As Li Haorong unpacked the box, he casually asked a question.

"Yeah, I finished work at midnight yesterday, and by the time I got home and washed up, it was already very late!"

"Aren't you a college student? Why are you working so hard?"

Hearing that Li Zhixian was working until midnight, he couldn't help but frown.

"I was kicked out by my family..."

So, Li Zhixian recounted the whole story of her conflict with her family.

"Bang!"

Hearing Li Zhixian recount her experiences, Li Haorong became so angry that he slammed his hand on the table, startling Li Zhixian.

"How could your parents do this? They've gone too far!"

Upon seeing Lee Ji-hyun's astonished expression, Lee Ho-young realized that he was not in a position to say such a thing, since he had only met her twice.

Li Haorong's biggest regret in his past life was that he couldn't take good care of his family!

He couldn't understand why they would be so heartless as to kick a girl out when they were all family.

If something really happens to her, will her parents regret it too late?

The pain of having a piece of one's heart torn out was unbearable for them after just one experience. Did their parents want to go through that too?

Li Haorong can't just ignore things!

"Actually, my parents are great!"

Seeing that Li Haorong's anger had subsided somewhat, Li Zhixian timidly replied.

"I'm sorry, I lost my composure!"

"It's okay!"

Li Zhixian shook her head, showing no disgust towards Li Haorong despite his harsh words towards her parents.

"Why don't you quit your job and come work part-time at my company?"

Li Haorong immediately said.

"I can't do it. I know absolutely nothing about the internet. I'm just a college student who hasn't graduated yet!"

Li Zhixian waved her hands repeatedly. Although she was very grateful to Li Haorong for helping her, she did not feel that she was capable of doing the job and was afraid that her lack of ability would hold Li Haorong back.

"Don't worry, the work here isn't complicated. You can come work for me after school, starting as my assistant, and occasionally filling in at the front desk. It's all work that you can handle!"

"But……"

"As you can see, this is a startup company, and the people I've recruited have limited abilities, and I don't trust them. So please help me out."

Once my company is stable, you can leave anytime you want!

Seeing that Li Haorong had put it this way, Li Zhixian finally nodded in agreement.

"Thank you, it'll be a pleasure doing business with you, Assistant Li?"

"Yes, Chairman Lee!"

Seeing that Li Haorong was deliberately teasing her, Li Zhixian also showed a rare smile.

Lee Ji-hyun's smile is so sweet, it's as if Lee Ho-young has been soaked in a jar of honey.

"The noodles are getting soggy, hurry up and eat!"

"Inside!"

Li Zhixian responded again, but her nose felt sore.

Leaving her parents' protection exposed her to the harsh realities of society at a young age.

But she is also a strong-willed girl who never complains, and she won't shed a tear even when she is scammed.

But she was still a girl under 20 years old. Suddenly meeting someone who was so good to her, that long-lost feeling of being surrounded by happiness still made her want to cry.

So she could only eat large mouthfuls of noodles to suppress the urge to cry.

Are you going back to class this afternoon?

"No need, I only have class in the morning today, and I've already asked for leave!"

"Oh, I see. I have a dinner engagement tonight. As my assistant, would you like to come with me?"

"what?"

When Lee Ji-hyun heard the word "dinner party," a lot of images flashed through her mind.

Is it the kind of dinner party that requires a girl to accompany you and is indecent?

"Don't worry, it's just a regular dinner party. Someone is inviting me to dinner, and we'll definitely be drinking. You'll need to drive me after the dinner."

By the way, do you have a driver's license?

"Yes, I got my driver's license right after graduating from high school!"

Lee Ji-hyun nodded, feeling a little more relaxed.

"It's settled then. Come with me to the mall after dinner!"

"What are you going to the mall for?"

"Of course, it's to give us both a new set of battle uniforms!"
