A money giveaway event nearly caused an uproar at Mars Technology.

People outside the building could even hear shouts of "Long live the Emperor!" coming from inside from time to time. Anyone who didn't know better would think that someone inside was about to be enthroned!

In reality, the employees felt the same way.

Is the chairman giving so much money to train assassins?

After distributing the money, Li Yinxin said goodbye to Li Haorong and left alone by car, heading towards Itaewon in Yongsan District.

Like Hannam-dong and Gangnam-gu, Itaewon is also a well-known affluent area.

Lee Yoon-hyung's destination was a luxury mansion located halfway up a mountain in Itaewon, adjacent to the famous "Samsung Family City". The mansion was not very large, only 1000 square meters.

The car drove directly into the yard, and Li Yinxin got out and walked straight into the mansion.

The living room was simply decorated, without too many fancy decorations, and she could immediately see her brother's family enjoying a happy time together.

Although the wind was biting cold outside, the house was warm and cozy. My sister-in-law, Lin Shiling, was only wearing a short-sleeved shirt. Despite being a mother of two, she had a curvaceous figure.

She was squatting on a carpet, playing with building blocks with the children.

Lee Jae-yong sat on the sofa next to him, legs crossed, watching the news.

Li Yinxin was very envious of this scene.

That was the kind of life she originally planned to live!

"Yin Xin, you're finally here?"

When Lee Jae-yong saw his younger sister arrive, he immediately showed a smile that he rarely wore in public.

Sure enough, his smile made him look even more like a horse splitting off from the Little Pony Peninsula!

"Yin Xin!"

Lin Shiling also saw Li Yinxin and immediately went up to hug her.

"Sister-in-law, you have such a great figure!"

"You're pretty good too!"

"I've gained weight recently!"

After simply greeting Lee Jae-yong, Lee Yoon-hyung held Lim Se-ryung's hand and kept talking.

Lim Se-ryung's father is Lim Chang-wook, the honorary president of the Daesang Group and one of the top ten richest people in the peninsula. Her mother is Park Hyun-joo, the daughter of Park In-cheon, the founder of Kumho Asiana Group, one of the top ten chaebols in the peninsula. She is a true chaebol heiress.

She herself is also very talented, and she was admitted to Yonsei University with excellent grades.

However, after marriage, she reluctantly gave up her studies to take care of her husband who was pursuing his doctorate at Harvard.

Although she and Lee Jae-yong met through a blind date, they were truly in love.

Throughout their marriage, she has always been a virtuous wife and loving mother. Even when Lee Kun-hee went to the United States for surgery to treat lung cancer in 99, it was his daughter-in-law who accompanied and took care of him throughout the process.

It can be said that Lee Jae-yong's ability to maintain his position as the crown prince is not only due to his status as the only son of Samsung, but also inseparable from the support of his capable wife.

If we're talking about who Lee Yoon-hsin is closest to in the whole family, it has to be her sister-in-law, Lim Se-ryung, and her sister-in-law's younger sister, Lim Sang-min.

"Why isn't Sangmin here?"

"You know her, she's just as crazy as you. I heard she went abroad with her friends!"

"I really envy her!"

"She should be envious of you. You're doing serious work now, while she's still traveling around!"

The sister-in-law and sister-in-law chatted endlessly, leaving Lee Jae-yong feeling neglected.

Left with no other choice, Lee Jae-yong had to speak:

"Alright, you talk nonstop every time you see your little sister. Are you planning to keep her chatting on an empty stomach?"

"Yes, yes, it's all my fault. Seeing Yin Xin so happy made me forget you're still hungry! I'll go check on you in the kitchen!"

Upon hearing Lee Jae-yong's words, Lim Se-ryung apologized, said goodbye to Lee Yoon-hyung, and then took the two children to the kitchen.

Of course, Lin Shiling couldn't cook herself; there was a chef in the kitchen.

After sending Lin Shiling away, Lee Jae-yong took his younger sister's hand and sat down on the sofa.

"How's work lately? Is it tough?"

"It's not hard work at all; I find running my own business quite interesting!"

Li Yinxin answered honestly.

"Your website has been doing really well lately; I see you've already surpassed 500 million registered users!"

"He's alright! Li Haorong is a capable person; I wasn't wrong about him!"

Although Li Yinxin wanted to be modest, she couldn't stop smiling.

"Your company should be launching its second round of financing soon, right? Could I buy a few shares?"

Upon hearing her elder brother's words, Li Yinxin's face instantly froze.

Although she lacks social experience and is still very much in love, she is not stupid.

Lee Jae-yong's words were all too obvious. It's said that there are no fathers and sons in the business world, and Lee Yoon-hyung's alarm bells immediately went off.

"Is this the eldest brother's wish, or the father's?"

"Is there a difference? Aren't we all family?"

Lee Jae-yong's smile remained unchanged.

"But I'm just a minor shareholder in Mars Technology; the one who makes the decisions is Li Haorong!"

Since Li Yinxin was unsure whose intention it was, she did not refuse directly, but instead pushed Li Haorong forward.

"He's even less of a problem. He'll definitely agree as long as you ask. After all, without your initial funding, his website wouldn't even be up and running!"

For some reason, Li Yinxin always felt that her older brother harbored resentment when he talked about Li Haorong.

But they've only met once, what grudge could they possibly have?

"But the website isn't short of money right now, so what can I say to convince him?"

"Do we not lack it now, and will we not lack it in the future?"

Lee Jae-yong's words hit the nail on the head.

Despite the rapid development of MarsNet, it has come at the cost of burning through a lot of money.

Despite Li Haorong's many clever and subtle methods, less than half of the money given by Li Yinxin had already been burned.

At this rate, Mars.net will face a broken cash flow within two months at most.

Although Li Haorong has the Chinese distribution rights for "KartRider", The9 has stated that the closed beta test will not begin until January next year, and the official open beta test will not start until at least February, which is not a solution for the immediate needs.

She had discussed with Li Haorong whether she needed to invest further, but Li Haorong refused.

Li Haorong doesn't even want her money, so why would he want her older brother's money?

Seeing that Lee Yoon-hyung remained silent, Lee Jae-yong went a step further and said:

"Now is the critical moment to seize the market. Although Mars.net is developing rapidly and has a first-mover advantage, it does not have a deep moat."

As far as I know, companies like SK and Naver are developing their own social networks, and Facebook is even about to launch on the Korean Peninsula. How long do you think you can hold out?

Upon hearing this news, Li Yinxin's heart clenched again.

Naver is the largest internet company on the Korean Peninsula, SK is the peninsula's telecommunications giant, and Facebook, needless to say, is the world's number one social network.

Neither of them is something MarsNet can handle!

Seeing his sister's concern, Lee Jae-yong continued, "Furthermore, sister, don't forget your place. No one's touching you now because you're with Samsung. If you reject my investment, what will outsiders think?"

After a combination of carrot and stick tactics, Li Yinxin truly panicked.

Lee Jae-yong saw this and couldn't help but smile slightly.

Just then, his phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID, his expression changed slightly, and he immediately got up and went to the bathroom.

"Feed? Why are you calling at this time..."

As soon as the bathroom door closed, Li Yinxin could no longer hear what her older brother was saying on the phone, and of course, she wasn't in the mood to listen anyway.

At this moment, her mind was filled with thoughts of what to do next with MarsNet.
