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

Inside a Starbucks in Bangi-dong, Songpa-gu, Seoul, Lee Ho-young sits by the window, bathed in the setting sun, looking like a handsome man making a phone call.

Across the street from the window stands the renowned Nexon company on the peninsula.

This company, founded in 1995 and the largest computer game company in the peninsula, has released many popular games such as "Kingdom of the Winds", "Bubble Fighter", and "KartRider".

"...Yes, it's that Starbucks across the street, CEO Kim goes there for coffee all the time!"

"Yes, thank you, senior!"

"Haorong, whatever you're going to do, I have to remind you, Representative Jin has a bad temper, so you absolutely mustn't anger him!"

"Don't worry, senior. I'm just here to ask him for help; how could I possibly anger him?"

Lee Ho-young's status as a Seoul National University graduate allowed him to build a large network of contacts. Coincidentally, one of his senior classmates worked at Nexon, which saved him a lot of time and energy.

After hanging up the phone, Li Haorong opened the notebook on the table, which was filled with dense Chinese notes about several game companies and their works. This was the result of his work for the week.

The police acted very quickly, and in just three days, they successfully shut down the Korean star model agency.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Li Haorong found the landlord and rented the floor at a very affordable price.

"Landlady, you wouldn't want the other tenants to know what's happening in this building, would you?"

With just one sentence, Li Haorong got the landlord to give him a 30% discount on the rent!

After renting the company address, Li Haorong immediately went to the Intellectual Property Office to submit the materials and register his company.

The peninsula is such a hassle; to open a company, you need an office space, and it has to be in an office building!

In addition, the approval process takes 10-15 days and is quite cumbersome.

Fortunately, he didn't stay idle during this time; he visited several game companies in Seoul to inquire about the specifics of game copyrights.

After a moment's thought, Li Haorong put a checkmark next to "KartRider" in the Nexon section of his notebook.

"Bang!"

Just as he was deep in thought, a loud slam on the table startled Li Haorong.

Li Haorong looked up and saw that the person who came was Li Yinxin.

Unlike her elaborate attire when she fell into the water, Li Yinxin was dressed in a white T-shirt and jeans today. Her delicate oval face radiated youthful energy, and with her ponytail tossed, she looked like an innocent college student.

But her delicate little face was puffed up with anger, like a hamster.

"You're awake? You seem to be recovering well!"

Although this was the first official meeting between the two, Li Yinxin came to his door in a huff, clearly already knowing his identity.

"Hmph, you're so leisurely, you even have the time to drink coffee?"

"What else can I do? Should I have tea at Starbucks?"

To be honest, Li Haorong was puzzled by Li Yinxin's sudden appearance and inexplicable outburst of anger.

Could it be that the girl drowned, causing her brain to short-circuit due to too much water entering it?

"You should kneel down and apologize to me when you see me!"

"Are you out of your mind? You want me, your savior, to kneel before you? Do you really think you're a princess?"

At this moment, Li Haorong, who was dumbfounded, was 100% certain that she had princess syndrome, the late stage of it!

Li Yinxin seemed to have anticipated Li Haorong's words, and immediately sat down opposite him, took out an MP4 from her bag, and played a video.

Li Haorong glanced at the video and realized it was the scene of him giving Li Yinxin CPR that night; someone must have filmed it.

Where did you get this video?

Judging from the video, his actions of kissing and touching the girl could easily lead to misunderstandings.

"Never mind that, what else is there to say now?"

Li Yinxin pressed on aggressively.

"I'm saving you!"

"So, when you hit me in the water, were you also saving me?"

"Uh...you..."

Li Haorong had just picked up his coffee when his hand trembled, and he almost spilled it.

He didn't expect that Li Yinxin was still conscious underwater at the time.

This is so awkward!

Seeing Li Haorong's expression change, Li Yinxin seemed quite pleased with herself and continued:

"Premeditated murder, forced indecent assault? Come with me to the police station now?"

Li Haorong forced himself to calm down, took a sip of coffee, and returned the MP4 to Li Yinxin.

"Putting aside whether your father would agree to you taking me to the police station, saying that I hit you is just your side of the story, and you have no evidence."

As for this video, it only proves even more that I was trying to save you!

Neither the Korean Peninsula nor the United States has anything to say about making someone perform artificial respiration as a crime, right?

Seeing that Li Haorong had shirked all responsibility with just a few words, Li Yinxin across from him stared in disbelief.

How can you be so shameless?

Li Yinxin, who grew up with a silver spoon in her mouth, was surrounded by good people. She had never encountered someone as unreasonable and argumentative as Li Haorong.

"Speak, what do you want with me after sneaking out like this?"

"Who said I snuck out?"

Li Yinxin was taken aback at first, then made a sophistry.

"You've been awake for several days now, haven't you? It's taken you so long to find me. This isn't the efficiency Samsung usually provides."

You came to see me without your father's knowledge, didn't you?"

"you……"

Lee Yoon-hyung's face stiffened, and she thought to herself: Are all the students at Seoul National University this smart?

"In short, you owe me a favor, and I want you to repay it!"

Li Yinxin composed herself and continued speaking.

"I refuse!"

"I haven't even told you what to do, why are you refusing?"

"What could you possibly want from me? It's nothing more than your ex-boyfriend, Shin Soo-bin!"

"you……"

Li Yinxin hated the feeling of being completely seen through; it made her feel like an idiot.

"I'll give you the money! I know your older sister gave you 100 million, and I can give you that too, as long as you call him and ask him to come back to China to see me!"

"It's not worth it, I refuse!"

Li Haorong chuckled and turned to look out the window.

Just then, he saw a group of people crossing the street and heading towards the coffee shop.

The person leading the group was none other than Kim Jung-tae, the representative of Nexon, whom he was waiting for.

According to his senior, he was highly trusted by the company president and was currently in charge of the copyright matters for "KartRider".

However, if I want to get in touch with this Mr. Kim, I have to get rid of this young lady in front of me first!

Li Haorong withdrew his gaze and continued:

"Our negotiations have broken down. Do you have anything else to say? If not, you can go back now!"

"Oh, how rude of you! I'm a beautiful woman, aren't I? Where's your gentlemanly manners?"

Seeing that Li Haorong was telling her to leave, Li Yinxin said with dissatisfaction.

"Miss Li, are you able to go back?"

Li Haorong complied with Li Yinxin's request, changed to polite language, and repeated it again.

"..."

Li Yinxin swore that she really wanted to bite the other person to death right now!

As the two were talking, Representative Kim had already led his men into the coffee shop.

At this moment, he suddenly looked towards Li Haorong, his expression changed slightly, and he quickly stepped forward and said:

"Miss Li... what are you doing here?"

Representative Kim looked at Li Yinxin ingratiatingly.

"Who are you?"

Li Yinxin frowned slightly at the stranger disturbing her.

"I'm Kim Jung-tae. I attended your birthday party with Jung-joo hyung before!"

The "Jungju Bro" that Kim Jung-tae mentioned should be Kim Jung-ju, the founder of Nexon.

No wonder this guy was able to get such an important position at such a young age; he must be related to Kim Jong-ju!

What surprised Li Haorong was that Nexon and Samsung should have no connection, so why was Kim Jung-tae being so attentive?

"Who is this woman?"

At that moment, a voice in Chinese sounded from behind Representative Kim, catching Lee Ho-young's attention.

A man who looked remarkably like Huang Jianxiang, wearing a black shirt and a large gold watch, exuded a nouveau riche air.

"Mr. Zhu, this is the youngest daughter of the president of Samsung!" the translator explained.

"Is this Samsung's little princess? She's alright-looking, just a bit round-faced!"

This Mr. Zhu assumed these people couldn't understand Chinese and spoke recklessly.

"Is Mr. Zhu saying this to people's faces, taking advantage of their lack of Chinese knowledge?"

Suddenly, Li Haorong, who had been silent all along, spoke up. His fluent and clear Mandarin left General Manager Zhu completely dumbfounded.

"I'm so sorry!"

After a long while, he finally came to his senses and quickly apologized.

It's so disgusting to be criticized by others and then have your opinions exposed by the person in question!
