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

"Buzzing..."

Li Haorong, whose mind was foggy, couldn't tell whether the sound was from the printer or from his own brain buzzing.

As it turns out, it will take time to get used to Li Haoyang's snoring, and another sleepless night ensued.

Even after drinking a glass of iced Americano, it had no effect whatsoever!

Fortunately, the torturous noise stopped abruptly as the printing was finished.

The group photo that I cherish is also freshly taken.

Yesterday, while carrying Li Haoyang through DNF, I also helped him rediscover his old days as a network administrator with bangs covering his right eye.

As a result, it was already dark when I left the internet cafe.

So he didn't come to the print shop until this morning.

"Boss, could you please laminate this?"

Li Haorong took the photo to the printing shop owner.

"We're out of laminating paper, please wait a moment while I go in and get some!"

After the middle-aged shop owner finished speaking, he went into the back room of the printing shop.

Suddenly, he was the only one left in the store. Li Haorong felt sleepy and sat back in a chair against the wall, lost in thought.

At this moment, someone else came into the printing shop, but Li Haorong ignored him.

"Hello, could you please print out some documents for me?"

However, this person walked directly to Li Haorong's side.

"Sorry, I don't..."

Upon hearing that soft, childlike voice, Li Haorong wanted to say that he wasn't the boss.

But when he looked up, he was drawn to the documents that were almost pressed against his face.

At the very top of that stack of documents was a peninsula identity card, also known as a resident registration card.

Besides the photos, what's most eye-catching is that among a lot of Korean text, there are also a few Chinese characters.

This is because Korean is a phonetic script, and if it is not annotated with Chinese characters, it is easy for a large number of people to have the same name.

"Li Zhixian..."

Upon seeing this name, Li Haorong's pupils contracted slightly, and he was momentarily dazed.

His sister in his previous life also had this name!

He couldn't help but rub his eyes and look at the other person's face.

This is an extremely beautiful face, with exquisite features perfectly distributed on a flawless face, and a striking beauty mark on the tip of the nose.

Wearing a long white dress, she looked like a celestial being descended to earth, elegant and refined.

Lost in thought, Li Haorong was also somewhat disappointed.

The girl was pretty, but she wasn't his sister.

"Hello?"

The girl named Li Zhixian waved her hand in front of Li Haorong's eyes.

"Oh, you want to make a copy? I'll help you!"

Coming to his senses, Li Haorong inexplicably took the documents from the girl's hand.

While making the copy, Li Haorong was also looking at the girl's information.

Even though he knew the other person wasn't his sister, he still felt an uncontrollable urge.

"Lee Ji-hyun, born on December 12, 1986, in Goyang, Gyeonggi Province, is a second-year student majoring in Visual Arts and Drama at Myongji University. She is 164cm tall, weighs 45kg, and her measurements are..."

Uh, isn't this resume a bit too detailed?

"alright!"

"How much?"

Li Zhixian opened her wallet and asked Li Haorong.

"I don't know either!" Before Li Zhixian could ask in confusion, Li Haorong asked into the room, "Boss, how much did it cost to print 11 copies?"

"1000 yuan is fine!"

The voice of the photocopy shop owner could be heard from inside the shop.

"Huh? You're not the boss?"

The girl named Li Zhixian looked at Li Haorong in astonishment.

"Yes, I'm here to print some materials too!"

"Feel sorry!"

Lee Ji-hyun quickly apologized.

"It's okay, are you going to become a model?"

Li Haorong pointed to her resume.

"Yes, I'd like to do part-time work!"

"You're so pretty, you're sure to get the job!"

Li Haorong smiled.

"Thanks!"

When Li Haorong struck up a conversation with her, Li Zhixian gave a very concise and to-the-point reply.

This is mainly due to her personality; she was beautiful from a young age and was approached by many people.

Being aloof can often save you a lot of unnecessary trouble.

In fact, it was only because Li Haorong was quite good-looking that Li Zhixian answered all his questions.

If it were an ugly woman asking, she might just call the police!

Li Zhixian politely thanked him, then took out two 500-yuan coins from her wallet, hesitated, and didn't know who to give them to.

"Give it to me, boss. I'll keep it for you and give it to you all at once later!"

"good!"

Hearing the boss's voice from inside the house, Li Zhixian stopped worrying.

"Um... thank you!"

Holding the two coins, Li Haorong fell into deep thought until the shop owner returned, waking him from his reverie.

"Sorry, the laminating paper was at the bottom; it took me ages to get it out!"

"It's okay, how much is it in total, including that girl's!"

As he spoke, Li Haorong put the two coins into his pocket and took out the banknotes from his wallet again.

Li Haorong, having finished printing the materials, originally planned to go back and get some sleep.

Li Haoyang was called away by the company today; apparently, he's been given new work.

But that iced Americano came in handy at that moment, making him wide awake.

Left with no other choice, he wandered around Sinsadong.

Since he has decided to start a company, he needs a suitable office space.

Unfortunately, after wandering around all morning, I still couldn't find a suitable place.

This is the heart of Seoul, where land is incredibly valuable; finding a suitable office space here is no easy feat.

They're either too small, too expensive, or already taken!

It was already noon, and Li Haorong, who was starving, decided to go to a Chinese restaurant for noodles with soybean paste.

Unexpectedly, he ran into the girl he had met at the printing shop that morning on the street.

"Li Zhixian?"

Hearing someone call her name, Li Zhixian turned around happily, but her face immediately darkened when she saw that the person was Li Haorong.

"Such a quick change of expression, do you really hate me that much?"

Li Haorong was not only making fun of himself, but also feeling somewhat frustrated.

He was quite attractive, so why was this girl so disgusted with him?

"Excuse me, no, um... could you lend me some money?"

After hesitating for a moment, Li Zhixian blushed and found it difficult to speak.

"Gurgle..."

Her stomach rumbled as soon as she finished speaking, and her face turned even redder.

"Did you go for a job interview, or were you robbed?"

Seeing Li Zhixian's embarrassed look, Li Haorong laughed.

"Want some Zhajiangmian (noodles with soybean paste)? My treat!"

Li Haorong pointed to a Chinese restaurant called "Zhuzi" next to him.

"Thank you! Seafood noodles would be fine?"

Lee Ji-hyun hesitated for a moment before asking.

"Hahaha!" Li Haorong laughed and led Li Zhixian inside.

"Slurp, slurp..."

Half an hour later, Li Haorong stared in disbelief as Li Zhixian slurped up noodles.

"As a model, is it okay for you to eat like this?"

After finishing a bowl of noodles in one large gulp, Li Zhixian elegantly wiped her mouth:

"I skipped breakfast for the job interview, and then I just spent all my money taking photos!"

Why did you spend all your money on the job interview?

Li Haorong keenly sensed that something was amiss.

"They said they'd take photos of my model portfolio, but they only offer free photoshoots for professional models. For part-timers like me, they'd have to pay!"

A model card is similar to a model's business card, or a graphic resume, containing basic data such as height, weight, and bust, waist, and hip measurements, as well as photos from multiple angles.

Is it expensive?

"Yes, it's very expensive!"

I shot three sets of photos, which cost 60 yuan, leaving me with all the money I had, not even enough for transportation!

"If you don't have the money, why not just take a set of photos?"

"They said if a promotional shoot isn't done well, many companies won't see it!"

Li Zhixian's words were all fine, but based on Li Haorong's many years of professional experience, he felt that something was wrong with this matter.

However, due to a lack of understanding of the specifics of the modeling industry, he dared not draw any conclusions.

So he asked, "What's the name of your company? Where is it located?"

"Is there a problem with calling her a Korean star/model?"

Lee Ji-hyun wasn't stupid; she sensed something was wrong from Lee Ho-young's question.
