Chapter 292 – Part 2. 1993

Inside the Jangseong Group Chairman’s Office.

Now, Chief Kim Seung-ho was reporting to Chairman Jang Gun-ho with a firm face.
Jaeyoung Jang was sitting next to Chairman Gunho Jang.

“President. I got a call from the National Tax Service, but they said that companies related to Lee Seong-jin cannot conduct tax investigations. It seems to be true that Lee Seong-jin is related to the president.”

“It’s big.. Is it? As expected.. He was a bigger guy than I thought.”

“Shall we cancel all the construction and publicity wet wipes that were supposed to be given to Mirae Construction and Good World?”

“Don’t cancel, put the semiconductor plant construction on hold for now. Wet wipes were meant to be ordered anyway. You can proceed with that… First of all, the event in Germany next month is more important now, so I’ll talk about this again after I’ve been to Germany.”

Perhaps, if the wet wipes could be produced elsewhere, it was highly likely that the wet wipes would have been put on hold as well.

“Yes. All right.”

Director Kim Seung-ho greeted Chairman Jang Gun-ho and left.

Jaeyoung Jang cautiously opened his mouth after seeing Chairman Gunho Jang’s face hardened.

“President.. It seems that Sungjin’s company has more power than I thought. Now what?”

“You know from just listening to the report, but I don’t think it will be easy to approach.”

“Then shall I try to apply the pressure in a different way?”

“No. This is a very important time for our maturity. As you know, it is a time when our generals are at the crossroads of whether or not to go first-class. It’s also a very good time to liquidate the old faction… Keke.”

Chairman Jang Kun-ho smiled sinisterly as if he was plotting another scheme.

Chairman Gun-Ho Jang, who laughed briefly, seemed to be thinking about something for a while, and Jae-Young Jang waited in silence for the next words.

“Now that this has happened, Jaeyoung’s role has become bigger. Whatever you do, catch Lee Seong-jin. It must be tied to your side. Got it?”

“Yes. All right. As usual, I invited Seong-jin to Seongnam’s villa tomorrow.”

“Okay? Good job. Make sure to make it on your side tomorrow.”

Jaeyoung Jang answered Chairman Kunho Jang and left the chairman’s room.

Chairman Gun-Ho Jang thought while stroking Jae-Young Jang’s chin whether or not he was leaving.
Chairman Gunho Jang gritted his teeth as he recalled the face of Kim Hee-kyung, whose work had become more difficult than he thought.

“Kim Hee-kyung. I will definitely make you mine I’ll make you gasp under me and beg me for doing something wrong.”

While gnashing his teeth, Chairman Jang Kun-ho quickly fell into thoughts of how to develop the company in the future.
Looking at this point, it seemed that the chairman of a large company was the chairman.

Evening when the sun goes down.

Seongjin was now driving his favorite horse to the place Jang Jaeyoung had told him about.
I was driving to the outskirts of Seongnam, anticipating what else would happen today.

As I ran down a two-lane road where cars didn’t go well, I saw fields on both sides.
I don’t think I’ve come that far beyond the Han River, but the surrounding scenery has rapidly changed to rural.

In the distance, I could see newly built apartments in Bundang New Town.
The move-in had just begun, and the surroundings were still empty.

As I drove a little further, the road gradually turned upward and was going up some hill.
The surrounding landscape changed from fields to forests.

As I drove slowly, wondering if I was on the right track, the road suddenly ended and a large Western-style mansion appeared.

Sungjin was dumbfounded.
The two-lane roads that had been run so far were entirely dedicated to entering and exiting this house.

There was a round fountain in front of the front door of the house, and if you go around the fountain once, you will go back to the road.

The building was three-story and incredibly spacious, with full-length windows on either side of the central porch.
I could see the whole view of the first floor, and it seemed like a living room and a space where I could have a party.

When Seongjin stopped the car, the front door opened and Jaeyoung Jang stood there smiling.

“Come on. Sungjin.”

“No, where the hell are you? I was surprised to find a place like this right next to Seoul.”

As Seongjin looked around, she could see the Bundang apartment in the distance and the surrounding scenery looked down in all directions.
It seemed like a vacation home, but it was not a place to be at all.

“Quack. Here? Shall we say no to our group? Once inside, I’ll explain later.”

When I took off my shoes at the entrance, put on slippers and went into the living room, there were two men I hadn’t seen before, including Go Byeong-ho.
Ko Byeong-ho pretended to know him, saying he had seen him at the last night.

Looking at Go Byeong-ho, Seong-jin thought of Choi Mi-yeon, her fiancée.

‘Haha. Don’t you know that her fiancee gave me her virgin? Sick…’

I was in a good mood for Go Byeong-ho, so I smiled and greeted him in a friendly way.
Ko Byeong-ho made a strange expression, but he quickly smiled and shook hands.

Jaeyoung Jang introduced the other two.

One was the son of an influential member of the National Assembly, who had previously served as a minister, and the other was the son of the current prosecutor general.
They played with each other, and everyone in the house was no joke.

When Jang Jae-young introduced Seong-jin to the two of them, they greeted each other lightly and didn’t care too much whether they considered Seong-jin as Jae-yeong Jang or Byeong-ho Ko.

“Now that everyone is here, let’s have dinner first.”

Jang Jae-young guided us into the restaurant.

In the dining room, there were maids in maid uniforms and a male chef in a white kitchen uniform.

On one side, the cook cooked, and the maids brought food and set it in front of each person.

The quality of the food was comparable to that of a first-class hotel.
Each time a dish came out, starting with the appetizer, the chef explained what the dish was and what the ingredients were.

It was so elegant that it made me think that real medieval nobles would have had such a meal.
Of course, the taste was amazing too.

Caviar, truffles, and top-notch steaks were lined up with foods that the common people would only eat at least once in their lifetime.
There was no luxury like this, even with the best wine that could not be obtained with money.

We ate while laughing and chatting.

While eating, Jang Jae-young told me that this villa-like place was a secret space used by the Jangseong Group to entertain high-ranking people.
There was only one way in and out of this place, so security was thorough.

He seemed to know how the high-ranking receptions, which he had only seen on the news before his return, went on.
Meals you can’t afford to pay for like the meals you’re eating now, and even providing sex services to women…

Seong-jin was able to realize once again that real conglomerates are enormous.
And now, he could see that he would have to follow in the end.

Maybe that’s why I was even more curious about what awaited me today, and even thrilled.

After the meal, a drinking table was set up in the living room.

In the living room on the right side of the entrance, there was a huge, high-end sofa in the shape of a ‘U’ that could seat 20 people. There was a space that felt like a stage.
So, it seemed like the living room on the left was a place to drink and play in earnest, and the living room on the right was a place to come out and rest for a while when things got tough.

The maids diligently set a huge number of drinks and snacks on the table, dimmed the lights, and turned on the music.

The sofa was so big that Jang Jae-young sat in the middle and I sat on the right, so I sat far enough away that Jang Jae-young couldn’t even reach him even if I lay down in the space with Jae-young Jang.

Other people also occupied such a spacious space and poured their favorite alcohol and talked while laughing and chatting.

Seongjin just listened to them quietly.

Certainly because they are the children of the upper class, they talked about going back to the country, talked about business, and evaluated the women, saying that they had fucked a female celebrity a while ago, and that someone had a daughter.

Seongjin was amazed just by hearing the story.
It was the story of other people who lived in a completely different world.

Time passed and now the sun had completely set and darkness came.
I looked at the clock and it was almost 8 o’clock.

Seong-jin arrived here around 6 o’clock, so two hours had already passed for her.
But she was funny and she was amazing to the extent that she didn’t know how those two hours had passed.

She seems to have been drinking as well, but she is not drunk at all.
It seemed that it was because the dinner we had earlier was of high quality and the alcohol was not easily available in the market.

Then she heard the sound of a car outside her and someone entered, guided by her maid.

“Long time no see. Jin So-ra.”

Jang Jae-young sat leaning back on the sofa with a glass of wine and greeted her while standing up.

Seongjin was surprised by Jang Jaeyoung’s words and turned her head around.
The person who entered the living room was Jin So-ra.

She had a bright commercial smile on her face, Jin So-ra, who walked in with a line of women behind her.

The moment Seong-jin saw Jin So-ra, she knew exactly what kind of chair she was in today.
She was a place of female celebrity prostitution.

All the women who hesitantly followed Jin So-ra from behind were all perfectly dressed.
It wasn’t like the women’s single clothes, but they were wearing clothes that allowed each individual to show off their beauty to the fullest.

A woman dressed like a cute and lively high school girl, a woman wearing a blouse and a suit skirt to look like an announcer, and a woman wearing a short miniskirt dress revealing her well-groomed legs.
It was to the point where I wondered if there might be a separate coordinator.

Jin So-ra led five women up to the stage of her hall.
It seemed like the right stage to do something.

The women stood in the middle of the stage, and Jin So-ra stood in front as her representative.

“Huh~”

Suddenly Jin So-ra let out an urgent groan with a look of embarrassment on her face.
Since the living room was a bit dark, it was Jin So-ra who had finally discovered Sung-jin.

Seeing Seongjin staring at her calmly, Jin Sora was shocked to see her heart skip a beat.
She already showed a bad side to Seong-jin, so she wanted to make up for her image somehow, but Seong-jin was here.

Moreover, knowing that Chairman Jang Kun-ho is targeting Seong-jin’s mother, Hee-gyeong, and that she has to arrange a seat herself, she avoids Seong-jin’s eyes even more.
However, she was Jin So-ra, who immediately regained her new color and avoided Seong-jin’s eyes.

Seongjin saw Jin Sora’s expression change and once again felt that she was a really great woman.

“Guys. Introduce yourself to the young masters.”

As soon as Jin So-ra’s voice was heard, spotlights suddenly shone on the stage, brightening the stage.
Seongjin’s eyes suddenly widened as they came forward one by one from the far left of her and introduced themselves.

“Uh? That woman…”

Seongjin’s voice was quite loud, so Jaeyoung Ji looked at her Seongjin, and she looked at her stage, where Seongjin was looking.

On the stage, right next to Jin So-ra, Park Hee-sun, whom she had been looking for so much, was standing.

Jang Jae-young looked at Seong-jin’s gaze and smiled.

“Why? Sungjin, do you like that girl? Good. Your partner today is that woman.”

Jang Jae-yeong, who had to win Seong-jin’s heart, smiled inwardly at Seong-jin’s reaction to her.

‘Why is Heesun here?’

Seongjin couldn’t hide her bewilderment when he saw Park Hee-sun.
And on the other hand, I was angry.

In the end, what was feared happened.
She even thought that she should have eliminated Jin So-ra the other day.

Seongjin, who was staring blankly at Park Hee-seon, looked at Jin So-ra, and Jin So-ra, who met Seong-jin and her eyes, was startled and turned her head away.
However, Jin So-ra, who was more clever than anyone else, had already finished grasping her situation.

“Heesun-ah, you are in charge of Lee Sung-jin over there today. You must make that Seongjin Lee unconditionally on your side. So you live, and I live too. Understand?”

Jin So-ra spoke to Park Hee-sun in a whisper, and Park Hee-sun looked at her Seong-jin with her face full of fear, and she lightly nodded her head.

After the greetings of the women, the lights suddenly turned darker than before, and the psychedelic lights started to rotate and exciting dance music started to play.

“Guys. What are you doing? I have to show you your hot side. Let’s begin.”
