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

"Alright, it's not like I'm never coming back, why are you making that long face?"

Downstairs at the apartment building, Li Haorong pinched Li Yinxin's cheek, trying to force a smile.

However, even though Li Yinxin was very cooperative, her smile was still forced, tears welled up in her eyes, and she clung tightly to Li Haorong's waist.

"But what if they miss you?"

Looking at Li Yinxin's pitiful big eyes, Li Haorong also had a headache.

Before she was in a relationship, this woman was so assertive. How come she's become such a clingy person now?

"Unnie, why don't you go to Jeolla Province with Oppa?"

At this moment, the rear window of the car slowly rolled down, revealing Li Zhixian's pretty face, who teased Li Yinxin.

"Oh, you think I wouldn't dare?"

Seeing that Li Zhixian dared to mock her, Li Yinxin was furious!

This Li Zhixian is getting more and more arrogant!

"Alright, alright, how could your father possibly let you come home with me to meet his parents? You just stay in Seoul and look after the company for me!"

"Hmph, you told me you weren't afraid of my dad, but now you're chickening out?"

How can these be the same?

After much persuasion, Li Haorong finally calmed down the intermittently willful Li Yinxin and got into the car ready for her long journey.

Just as MarsNet was preparing to launch its decisive battle, Li Haoyang received a call from his mother saying that his father was hospitalized.

When asked what was going on, the mother couldn't explain either, and could only worry anxiously.

Therefore, Li Haorong could only temporarily return to his hometown in Jeolla Province with Li Haoyang.

Just in time for the Lunar New Year, Li Zhixian also needed to go home.

Although she was kicked out by her family, they were still family after all.

Neither Li Zhixian nor his father would budge, so in the end, Li's mother had to mediate to bring about a truce and allow Li Zhixian to go home for the Lunar New Year.

The peninsula is, in essence, a member of the Chinese cultural sphere, and once even took pride in being a dog of the Ming Dynasty.

Therefore, deeply influenced by Chinese culture, they naturally celebrate the Spring Festival.

However, they were not satisfied with merely following along; they wanted to claim the Spring Festival for themselves, which led to the incident where "Chinese New Year" was changed to "Lunar New Year".

After learning that Li Zhixian could go home, Li Haorong not only gave her a day off, but also decided to take her home.

After setting off, Li Haorong finally felt a little more relaxed. Seeing the worried Li Zhixian, he couldn't help but grab her hand and comfort her:

"Are you still worried?"

Hearing Li Haorong's words of comfort, Li Zhixian looked up and shook her head:

"Don't worry, even if we get kicked out again, you'll still be here!"

"That's right, they come back home after being wronged at home!"

Lee Ji-hyun smiled happily and held Lee Ho-young's hand tightly.

Li Haoyang, who was driving at the time, saw this scene through the rearview mirror and felt that he should not be in the car, but under the car!

Lee Ji-hyun's home is in Goyang, Gyeonggi Province, a satellite city of Seoul, only a 30-minute drive from Seoul.

In fact, Lee Ho-young's so-called long journey was not very far; it was only a 4-hour drive from Seoul to his hometown of Pohang, Jeolla Province.

For a man who has driven freely throughout China, this is just a matter of stepping on the gas!

The main reason why Li Haorong has not returned home for so long is that he deliberately wants to keep his distance.

Unlike when facing his younger brother, he still felt somewhat uneasy when facing his parents in this world.

The 30-minute journey passed in the blink of an eye, and soon the car stopped in front of a residential building.

Go!

Li Haorong got out of the car, took Li Zhixian's suitcase from the trunk, and handed it to her.

Li Zhixian nodded emphatically and smiled at Li Haorong, "You should go now!"

Seeing that Lee Ji-hyun remained calm, Lee Ho-young gave her a gentle hug before turning and getting into the car.

As the car sped away, Li Zhixian withdrew her hand and sighed softly.

"Ji-hyun?"

Just then, a familiar voice suddenly rang out behind her.

Lee Ji-hyun turned her head and found that it was her mother, who was staring at her in astonishment.

-----------------

There are two routes you can take from Goyang to Pohang.

One is the Seoul Metropolitan Area First Ring Expressway, which runs northeast of Seoul, and the other is the Seoul Metropolitan Area Route 13, which runs southwest of Seoul, before you can take the Yeongdong Expressway.

Li Haorong chose the second option, so that they could have a decent lunch on the way.

Although, the Peninsula doesn't seem to have any decent lunches!

After dropping Li Zhixian off at home, Li Haorong took over driving, while Li Haoyang fell fast asleep in the passenger seat.

After driving for about 40 minutes, Li Haorong suddenly saw a familiar person waving to flag down the car on the side of the road, so he immediately stepped on the brakes.

"Hyuntae-hyung, what are you doing here?"

Li Haorong stopped the car in front of the other party and stuck his head out to ask.

The person in front of me is TVXQ's manager, Noh Hyun-tae, who had dealt with Lee Ho-young before.

"Chairman Li?"

Lu Xiantai seemed very surprised to see Li Haorong.

"Is the car broken down?"

Seeing the other car pull over with its hazard lights on, Li Haorong had a guess in his mind.

"My tire's blown out!"

Lu Xiantai was somewhat helpless.

"Don't you have a spare tire?"

"I just changed into it a couple of days ago!"

"..."

What bad luck! In just a few days, two tires blew out. Li Haorong couldn't help but take a step back, afraid of getting tainted by his bad luck.

"Do you need a ride?"

"I don't need it. I'll have to wait for the tow truck. Could you please give her a ride?"

As he spoke, Lu Xiantai pushed a girl next to him forward, and Li Haorong finally noticed her.

She has shoulder-length short hair, a sweet face, and a slightly chubby face.

"Hyuntae oppa, shall I wait with you?"

The girl glanced at Li Haorong and said to Lu Xiantai.

"Renjing, we don't know when the tow truck will arrive. Chairman Lee is going that way anyway, so don't miss this great opportunity!"

Lu Xiantai advised.

"Chairman Li?"

Park In-jung carefully examined Lee Ho-young in front of her. This tall, handsome oppa looked like a college student, but he was actually a student council president.

"That's right, the Mars Network you're using was developed by Chairman Li's company!"

"Why?"

Park In-jung finally showed a surprised expression.

Lu Xiantai then introduced Li Haorong:

"Chairman Lee, this is Park In-jung, a trainee from our SM Entertainment! She lives in Anyang City, not far from here, so we're counting on you!"

"Well... thank you for your help, Chairman Li!"

Seeing this, Park In-jung quickly chimed in.

Upon hearing that the other party was the chairman of Mars Technology, Park In-jung unconsciously became much more respectful in her tone.

"No need to be so polite, just call me Oppa! It's on the way and not far, so if you trust me, Hyuntae hyung, just leave it to me!"

Li Haorong waved his hand. For some reason, he looked at the girl in front of him and found her name and appearance to be very familiar.

Just then, Li Haoyang, who had been sleeping in the car, woke up and, finding the car had stopped, got out of it.

As soon as he came down, he saw Park In-jung. Still feeling dizzy, he blurted out, "Hyung, isn't this the Park In-jung you said was average-looking?"

"..."

The moment he finished speaking that day, the entire area suddenly fell silent.

Li Haorong could even hear the wind nearby suddenly become very noisy!
