My Arrogant Young Lady

According to An Yao, the hospital records were the result of years of painstaking research by Oda Seiji, who spent countless sums of money and recruited numerous top scientists from around the world. Furthermore, in his pursuit of immortality, Oda Seiji went so far as to capture many living people for experiments, sacrificing countless innocent lives.

This man is not human; he is a demon with blood on his hands. If he were to realize his dream of unifying the world, then the world would be close to destruction.

But thinking about Oda Seiji's terrifying strength, a sudden fear gripped me. Over a decade ago, our entire Wang family fought to the point of destruction just to severely injure Oda Seiji. I am too weak, and my brothers are outnumbered and outmatched. Compared to Wang Yu's formidable lineup, could I possibly be a match for Oda Seiji?

It seems I must plan carefully; I cannot fight them head-on. First, I must rescue my father from the aurora. Then we can make further plans.

Extinguishing the aurora is impossible. My mission is to rescue my father. As long as I rescue my father first, that's all that matters.

“An Yao. Since the leader of Aurora is a prince of the Lee Dynasty, he must be hiding in Seoul's high society. If I can infiltrate Seoul's high society circles, I should be able to find Aurora's whereabouts,” I said.

“But you must infiltrate Seoul’s high society under a different identity. If you reveal your identity as the head of the Wang family, your life will be in danger,” An Yao told me.

"What identity would be better?" I asked after thinking for a moment.

“The largest gang in South Korea is called Taeguk, and their headquarters are in Seoul. If you approach him as a top-level martial arts master, I believe he would be happy to take you under his wing and bring you to various high-society events in Seoul,” An Yao said.

"That's settled then. I'll notify you immediately if we spot the aurora." Nodding, I closed my eyes and went to sleep.

The next morning, I made a point of disguising myself. During my month at the Wang family's, the pampered lifestyle had made my skin noticeably fairer, I'd gained a little weight, and my body was more muscular than before. To prevent the people from Aurora from seeing me and recognizing me, I deliberately grew some stubble. Then, in a few days, when my beard had grown longer, I'd trim it a bit, and my appearance would be quite different.

So, how can I get close to the leader of Tai Chi? If I rashly approach him, he definitely won't trust me. Even if Elder Jin Mingzhe recommends me to his side, the leader of Tai Chi won't trust me. After all, I'm a god-level master; such masters are highly sought after. Basically, the moment a master like me shows up on the scene, various families and gangs will immediately be vying to recruit me.

My brothers and I studied this carefully and came up with a flawless plan.

That evening, a high-end nightclub in Seoul was bustling with activity. The lights were dazzling, and beautiful women constantly moved through the crowd. A handsome man, holding a cigar, wore a striking gemstone ring on his right hand. Beside him stood a large group of serious-looking henchmen in suits. This was Kim Sang-woo, the leader of Taeguk, known as the "Tiger of Taeguk" in Seoul.

He was a peak-level expert, a god-tier being. At twenty-six years old, reaching such a level already placed him among the top experts in South Korea. He could truly be called a young prodigy.

"Has Miss Lee Tae-hee arrived?" Kim Sang-woo asked, glancing at the expensive watch on his wrist.

"President, we've received the notification that Miss Lee Tae-hee is on her way," one of his underlings said.

"Okay, get the 999 flowers I prepared for her ready. It's her birthday today, and I'm going to give her a surprise later," Kim Sang-woo said.

"Yes." The henchman left immediately.

However, on his other side, a young man suddenly caught his attention. This young man was dressed in gold and silver, waving a large wad of banknotes around, looking extremely wealthy. As soon as a beautiful woman walked towards him, he immediately embraced her, kissing and hugging her, appearing extremely happy.

Just as Kim Sang-woo was momentarily distracted, the young man suddenly looked at him. His face was full of sarcasm, and the young man said disdainfully, "Country bumpkin, what are you looking at?"

"What is he saying?" Seeing the young man's ill intentions and his use of Chinese that Kim Sang-woo couldn't understand, he was slightly taken aback and looked at his underlings behind him.

"Heh, so he's just a country bumpkin from China. He's probably asking if you want to have a drink with him," Kim Sang-woo's underling chuckled.

"Oh. Then please tell him thanked me for his kindness, and I won't go drinking with him," Kim Sang-woo said with a smile.

After all, he was the leader of Taeguk, the largest gang in South Korea. His influence in Seoul was immense; he practically had connections everywhere. How could he possibly imagine that a foreigner would dare to so arrogantly insult him on his own turf? He was too confident; he would never believe that the young man was actually insulting him, but rather that he was trying to curry favor and was sincerely inviting him for drinks.

Meanwhile, on the other side, the young man saw Jin Xiangyu's slightly confused look and immediately laughed. Then, he said to his henchmen behind him, "This idiot can't understand what we're saying. We're cursing him and he's still laughing, hahaha!"

"Hahaha!" Upon hearing the young man's words, his henchmen also laughed.

"The Chinese seem to be very warm and welcoming." Seeing the young people smiling, Kim Sang-woo couldn't help but smile as well. He was in an excellent mood today because the girl he had been pursuing for a long time had finally agreed to let him spend her twentieth birthday with her.

"Idiot!" The nouveau riche youth scoffed as he saw Kim Sang-woo's men approaching. Kim Sang-woo's men, however, didn't understand him at all, and simply smiled, "Thank you for your kindness, but our boss has a date today. He can't join you for drinks."

When the subordinate returned, the girl Kim Sang-woo was dating also arrived. She was an exquisitely dressed and extremely beautiful girl with snow-white skin, looking like a porcelain doll. As the girl, dressed in a sophisticated business suit, walked towards Kim Sang-woo, she immediately smiled and apologized, "Mr. Kim Sang-woo, I'm late."

"It's okay, it's good that you came." Kim Sang-woo smiled.

However, Kim Sang-woo quickly frowned slightly. He noticed the nouveau riche from China staring at the girl he was pursuing, and the nouveau riche, while looking at Miss Lee Tae-hee, said greedily, "I didn't expect that South Korea would have beautiful women, and such beautiful ones at that. Look at her delicate legs. I feel like I could play with those legs for a year."

"Her stockings are even thinner, making her legs look like they're glowing," the young man's henchman said, deliberately making a lewd face.

"..." Although he couldn't understand what they were saying, their greedy eyes already displeased Kim Sang-woo. Frowning, a hint of murderous intent flashed in Kim Sang-woo's eyes. Then, he gave a signal to his subordinates behind him.

Kim Sang-woo's men were furious that their boss's crush had been molested. Just as they were about to teach the nouveau riche from China a lesson, a loud crash came from nearby.

Gunshots rang out. Upon hearing them, Kim Sang-woo instinctively shielded the delicate girl in front of him with his own body, using his strength to block the bullets. His henchmen quickly crouched down, using the sofa as cover to search for the assassin.

Soon, they saw a young man with slightly dark skin emerge from the crowd. His eyes were cold, and he had stubble on his lips. Holding a pistol, he repeatedly fired at the young men who had been peeping at Miss Lee Tae-hee.

"Not to kill me?" Seeing the young man in the lead being quickly shot down by a pistol not far away, Kim Sang-woo muttered to himself as he got up from the ground. Then, glancing at the girl beneath him, he felt a surge of excitement.

Meanwhile, on the other side, the group of youths screamed as they saw their leader beaten to death. One of them even picked up a sofa and hurled it at the other youth. But as the massive sofa hurtled towards the dark-skinned youth, he simply kicked it away with a light kick.

Upon seeing this, Quan Xiangyu was immediately shocked. "This is a god-level expert!"

"Our boss is dead! Our boss is dead!" As soon as the huge sofa was kicked back, Runtu, Heilong, and Lu Zhicheng immediately shouted at Bao Shao, who was lying on the ground pretending to be dead. Heilong glanced at Quan Xiangyu's surprised eyes and whispered to Bao Shao, who was lying on the ground, "That's enough. Xi-ge has attracted Jin Xiangyu's attention. We'll carry you away now."

"OK!" Young Master Bao's chest was covered in tomato sauce, and he lay on the ground pretending to be dead with his eyes tightly closed. Then, Black Dragon hoisted him onto his shoulder and carried Young Master Bao's 'corpse' away while crying and shouting.

After they left, Ms. Kim Tae-hee, her face pale, asked, "Mr. Kim Sang-woo, what just happened?"

"It seems that the Chinese man was killed, and the one who killed him was a god-level expert," Jin Xiangyu said.

"Aren't there very few god-level experts? How come there is a god-level expert?" Kim Tae-hee asked in surprise.

"Yes, there aren't many god-level experts." Jin Xiangyu nodded slightly, seemingly lost in thought.

"How is it? Did I attract Kim Sang-woo's attention?" I asked, slightly out of breath, as I took out my phone after escaping to a corner outside the nightclub.

“It’s already caught his attention. I saw him whisper something to his men. He’s probably sent someone to look for you. You’d better be prepared to be recruited by them,” Wang Che said, sitting in the nightclub.

"Okay." After hearing Wang Che's words, I immediately hung up the phone.

However, just as I hung up the phone, I heard light footsteps behind me. I turned around abruptly and saw several men in suits standing behind me.

Sweat beaded on my forehead. I immediately pulled out my pistol, pointed it at them, and said, "What do you want?"

"Hello, our president Kim Sang-woo would like to have a talk with you." The young man at the head of the group bowed deeply to me politely.

Chapter 296 Protecting Lee Tae-hee

An hour later, in a high-end Western restaurant in Seoul. I was staring coldly at Kim Sang-woo, the exquisitely beautiful woman beside him, and the group of stern-faced bodyguards behind him.

I have to say, those Koreans are really dedicated to their work. Even though he was on a date with the girl he was pursuing, the moment he saw my agile movements, Kim Sang-woo couldn't wait to win me over. He even brought me along to his candlelight dinner with Kim Tae-hee.

Besides Kim Sang-woo looking at me intently, the elegant woman beside him was also curiously sizing me up. Kim Sang-woo smiled and pushed a check in front of me, saying, "Here's a million US dollars. It's much better than you earning cheap bounties as an assassin. If you'd like, I hope you can join our Taeguk."

As soon as Kim Sang-woo finished speaking, the translator he had found immediately began translating for me. And I, at this moment, was playing the role of a ruthless assassin, a cold-blooded lone wolf. Trying my best to mimic the aloof demeanor of my master, Leng Yan, I expressionlessly picked up the check and stood behind Kim Sang-woo.

Unexpectedly, this brought him a god-level expert. This made Kim Sang-woo extremely happy. Even the largest gang in South Korea didn't have many god-level experts under his command. A total of seven: one mid-level god-level expert and six low-level god-level experts. His Tai Chi also had some elders who were god-level experts, even one above the level of gods, but those elders didn't count. Those old fogies were merely elders responsible for disciplining his behavior.

Only these seven god-level experts could truly be of use to him. Now, he has an eighth.

Moreover, this god-level expert of his is very young and seems to be stronger than his other god-level experts. If he can be properly trained, he will definitely become a master above the gods in the future and become his most capable assistant.

Even if they are Chinese, it doesn't really matter. The world is peaceful now, and there are fewer and fewer people who hate other countries.

"Happy birthday." Kim Sang-woo said, handing Lee Tae-hee an expensive diamond ring.

"Thank you." The beautiful Lee Tae-hee smiled, but did not accept the diamond ring Kim Sang-woo offered her. Clearly, she was once again politely rejecting Kim Sang-woo's advances.

"I won't give up." Kim Sang-woo wasn't discouraged, nor was he angry at being rejected because of his prominent status. Instead, he maintained the demeanor expected of a gentleman. He deeply loved the exquisite and beautiful girl before him.

Because of my joining, after Lee Tae-hee left, Kim Sang-woo led the main members of Taeguk to hold a grand welcome ceremony for me. It was at his company, and he even had a lot of confetti set up, making it look like a New Year's Eve party at my school. Then Kim Sang-woo and everyone opened champagne for me, had a translator translate between us, and he chatted with me warmly.

Looking at the sincerity in Kim Sang-woo's eyes, I realized that this top gang leader in South Korea was not as ruthless as I had imagined. Instead, he seemed more like a well-mannered rich young master.

After a drunken night, Kim Sang-woo sent someone to pick me up at his company the next day. In addition to the million-dollar check he had given me before, he also gave me a high-end Hyundai car. Then, he earnestly pleaded with me, "Mr. Nice Guy, there's something I need to ask of you."

“This girl is the one I’ve been pursuing. I like her a lot, but I don’t want to cause her any trouble because of my identity. I hope you can protect her for me.” After saying that, Kim Sang-woo handed me a photo.

“…” I was slightly taken aback by Kim Sang-woo’s words.

As I walked out of the company and got into the car Kim Sang-woo had given me, I immediately pulled out my phone and said, "Damn it, sis, we've been screwed! What the hell? Who is that woman Kim Sang-woo likes? Holy crap, he actually wants me to protect the woman he likes. You need to find out who that woman is right now, or maybe we should just kidnap her. How am I supposed to get close to Seoul's high society if I'm protecting that woman?"

“Brother, don’t rush. The girl you’re protecting is from a prestigious family. Her name is Lee Tae-hee, and she’s the CEO of JG Group in South Korea. JG Group is a famous pharmaceutical company with many scientists and top-quality medicinal herbs. It’s a good thing that Kim Sang-woo asked you to protect Lee Tae-hee; you can use her connections to find some good medicinal herbs within their company. The King Serpent has arrived, and they need a lot of medicinal herbs as food right now,” An Yao said.

"Oh, if that's the case, it's not bad. Following Lee Tae-hee, I didn't know I could meet people in Seoul's high society. Okay, then I'll go report to Lee Tae-hee now." Hearing An Yao's words, I felt much more at ease.

Then I drove all the way to Lee Tae-hee's company. Lee Tae-hee already knew that I was there to protect her, and as soon as I arrived at her company, she had someone take me to her office.

Her office was spacious and bright, and she looked exquisite and beautiful in her business attire. She was 1.65 meters tall with a curvaceous figure. She wore a beige business suit and a crisp white shirt. Her slightly wavy long hair cascaded down her chest, and through the gaps in her white shirt, a breathtaking view could be seen.

Her legs were covered in thin, flesh-colored stockings, which made her calves look delicate and gave them a captivating sheen.

The office was filled with a pleasant fragrance. Lee Tae-hee looked me over curiously for a moment and then smiled, "Are you really a god-level expert?"

"You speak Chinese?" I asked in surprise.

“Yes, I speak eight languages. President Kim Sang-woo also speaks several languages, but not Chinese. I guess he never imagined he would be dealing with Chinese people,” Lee Tae-hee asked.

"Oh..." After hearing what Lee Tae-hee said, I thought for a moment and then pretended to be serious and remained silent.

“Good boy, I’m very interested in Chinese martial arts. If you have the chance, would you be willing to teach me Chinese martial arts?” Lee Tae-hee asked me.

"Okay." Seeing that Lee Tae-hee was very beautiful and very friendly to me, I nodded slightly, feeling quite fond of her.

“Actually, President Kim Sang-woo didn’t need to send you to protect me at all.” Lee Tae-hee seemed somewhat helpless.

"I know." I nodded slightly, realizing that Lee Tae-hee had no interest in Kim Sang-woo. Kim Sang-woo's feelings for her were merely wishful thinking on his part.

“I’m giving you my work badge. You can wander around my company as you like. If you get bored, you can go home and rest.” Standing up, Lee Tae-hee smiled and handed me her work badge.

"No need, I'm here to protect you." I definitely can't go home. If I were herding sheep, how would I follow Lee Tae-hee to contact the people of Aurora? I'm here to find Aurora, not actually to be a bodyguard.

"Then I'll have to trouble you." Lee Tae-hee knew I had a responsibility, so she didn't try to get rid of me.

While Lee Tae-hee was working, I went to the conference room to rest and wait for her to finish get off work. I hoped that Lee Tae-hee would attend a dinner party hosted by Seoul's elite that evening, so that I would have a chance to see the aurora borealis.

Then I glanced at the camera in the conference room and casually fiddled with my phone. Holding my phone, I texted An Yao, "Things have settled down. I'm just waiting to hang out with Lee Tae-hee and attend some high-society banquets."

“There will be many opportunities, because Kim Sang-woo is pursuing Lee Tae-hee, and he will definitely use every opportunity to invite her to banquets of high society. Lee Tae-hee is also of high status, and by following her, you will come into contact with many high society people. Pay attention to any suspicious people around her. Me, Wang Che, Wang Huan, Wang You, and Liu Li are also fabricating identities for ourselves. We will infiltrate Seoul's high society together to cooperate with you,” An Yao told me.

"Okay. I won't send any more messages. I'm a cold-blooded killer; sending too many messages will arouse suspicion." After sending the message, I quickly deleted the messages between An Yao and myself.

This is the third day, and I never imagined I'd be working for a big company in South Korea. It all feels like a dream. Before, I often fantasized about making money when I grew up and traveling to nice places. Even traveling within my northern province was a luxury for me. Going to other provinces or abroad was something I never even dared to dream of.

But in just three days, we traveled to two different places to save my father. And both of them were incredibly difficult places, which left me deeply troubled.

Then I thought of Xi'er, who was resting at home during her pregnancy. My heart warmed. I wondered if Xi'er would get fatter after I went home?

She drinks soup every day to nourish her body, so she'll definitely turn into a little chubby pig when I get home, right? But no matter how fat she gets, I'll still love her very, very much.

While thinking about Xi'er, another girl came to mind. Now that I'm abroad, will I have a chance to meet her?

Her aunt took her away to a place none of us know. This is abroad. How is she doing now?

Thinking back to how she used to call me a loser, I couldn't help but laugh. If I ever see her again, I'll definitely call her a "female loser."

"Mr. Cheng Kun, you must be tired. If you're bored, feel free to wander around." Just as I was lost in thought, a beautiful woman placed a cup of coffee in front of me. She was Lee Tae-hee's assistant, and also a beautiful woman.

I was quite surprised to see that this beautiful woman could also speak Chinese. No wonder it's a big Korean company; so many people there speak several languages.
