If I make you a prosecutor, are you going to be the president of South Korea?

Chapter 198 I just wanted Kim Joon-hyuk to have another stepfather.

After listening to Shin-woo's story, Lee Seung-hwan's intuition told him that Han Yoo-ri was a very complicated woman! She must have a big secret!

What he enjoys most is digging deep into the secrets of this kind of woman.

“Shin-woo, continue your investigation.” Lee Seung-hwan stared intently at Park Shin-woo. “Use our intelligence network to thoroughly investigate Han Yoo-ri’s trading and logistics company, as well as the luxury stores under her name.”

"I've heard that many luxury stores sell a mix of genuine and fake items, with high-quality replicas being the majority. If you investigate in that direction, you might find some surprises."

Park Shin-woo nodded slightly. "I'll take care of it right away." With that, she turned to leave.

"Wait a minute," Lee Seung-hwan called out to her.

Park Shin-woo turned her head with a puzzled look, just about to ask Lee Seung-hwan if there was anything else, when she saw Lee Seung-hwan beckon to her, "Come here."

She didn't know why, but she still subconsciously walked up to Li Chenghuan, and Li Chenghuan unexpectedly kissed her on the lips.

"You've worked hard, darling. When your oppa is successfully elected minister, I'll give you a big surprise," Lee Seung-hwan said gently, pinching her pretty cheek.

Park Shin-woo blushed at Lee Seung-hwan's sudden ambiguous actions and words. She gave him a playful glare and said in a soft voice, "I don't believe you. Who knows if your surprise is a surprise... Oppa is so naughty..."

Lee Seung-hwan: "...Am I that kind of person?"

"Don't worry, your oppa always keeps his word. Go get to work. Whether we can win the election this time depends entirely on your investigation results, Shinwoo."

Joking aside, Park Shin-woo knew Lee Seung-hwan's ambition to win her over, and she also knew that she was already deeply bound to this man and could never easily separate from him. Lee Seung-hwan was the only person she could rely on in this world.

She didn't think about whether what she was doing was moral or just; she only knew that she had to help her man.

Park Shin-woo's crisp, melodious footsteps in her high heels quickly disappeared into the corridor outside the office.

Lee Seung-hwan watched Shin-woo leave.

Leaning back in his chair, he crossed his arms in front of his chest, the image of Han Youli constantly appearing in his mind.

This woman knew how to use the resources around her to her advantage since she was at Seoul National University. Now she is thriving in the business world, and there must be some secrets behind her success.

Two days passed in the blink of an eye.

That day, Park Shin-woo rushed into Lee Seung-hwan's office again, a hint of excitement on her pretty face. "Prosecutor Lee, I've made a major discovery! Han Yoo-ri's trading and logistics company is indeed suspicious. I've found out that she's using the company to smuggle prohibited e-cigarettes."

"In addition, she is also suspected of smuggling luxury goods and high-end products, and... her luxury stores are also suspected of selling counterfeit and high-quality imitations. The shipping address has been found to be from China."

“We suspect she also has close ties to the underworld.” As he spoke, he placed a thick stack of documents on Lee Seung-hwan’s desk. “It’s all in here; you can take a look for yourself.”

Li Chenghuan quickly picked up the documents and flipped through them. After reading the evidence that Han Youli might be involved in illegal activities, a ruthless glint flashed in his eyes. "Very good, the evidence is conclusive. Let's see how she tries to deny it this time."

As night falls, the lights are on.

Dressed in a black suit, Lee Seung-hwan walked with steady steps to Han Yoo-ri's luxurious villa near Cheongdam-dong in Gangnam-gu.

He rang the doorbell, and after a moment, the door slowly opened.

Han Youli wore a red silk nightgown, the close-fitting cut of which perfectly outlined her graceful figure, her fair skin faintly visible.

She has an exceptionally beautiful oval face with delicate and well-defined features. Although she is over thirty, her figure is still in perfect shape, and her long, black hair is casually draped over her shoulders, exuding a charming femininity.

Upon seeing Lee Seung-hwan, a flicker of panic crossed her eyes. She clearly recognized him, as the name of this celebrity prosecutor was known to everyone.

But she quickly composed herself and gave a professional smile. "You must be... Prosecutor Li? What can I do for you so late?"

“Ms. Han, there are some things I’d like to discuss with you.” Li Chenghuan’s gaze swept over her before he walked straight into the house.

Han Youli closed the door, walked quickly to Li Chenghuan, and gestured to the sofa, inviting him, "Prosecutor Li, please have a seat."

As she spoke, she turned to fetch tea and water. Looking at her rounded buttocks and perfect figure revealed when she bent over with her back to me, I have to say, this woman is indeed very beautiful and alluring.

No wonder the information says that she was one of the most beautiful campus beauties at Seoul National University and was pursued by many other top students at Seoul National University.

Time seems to have left no trace on her face; there isn't a single wrinkle to be seen.

She poured two cups of tea and placed them on the table in front of Lee Seung-hwan.

"Prosecutor Li, what brings you here so late?" she asked tentatively, placing a teacup in front of Li Chenghuan.

Li Chenghuan picked up his teacup, took a sip, and said slowly, "Mrs. Han, I heard that you are only 36 years old and already run a fairly large import and export trading company. You are indeed very impressive."

Han Youli didn't know why he asked this. Did he want to investigate whether her company had done anything illegal?

Or……

Han Youli felt uneasy, but on the surface she smiled modestly and said, "Prosecutor Li, you flatter me. I just received help from many kind people."

"Is that so?" Lee Seung-hwan said, suddenly taking a file folder out of his briefcase and tossing it in front of Han Yoo-ri. "Take a look at this."

Han Youli picked up the file folder with a puzzled look, opened it, and her face instantly turned ashen.

The first page of her file details how she managed to deceive Seoul National University's admissions officers by using a fake exchange student status to gain admission.

Then, with her excellent eloquence and beauty, she attracted a group of admirers who fawned over her. Later, she gained the appreciation of Professor Jin Jinxian through her thesis... After her identity was exposed and her fraud was revealed, she dropped out of school and married her teacher, Jin Jinxian...

Besides her background and resume, the file focuses on how she used Jin Jinxian's social status and connections to start a business, and how she resorted to all sorts of illegal means to pursue her interests.

"This...this is slander. I...I never did anything illegal or criminal. There must be some misunderstanding here, Prosecutor Li. Please investigate thoroughly." She hurriedly denied it.

Li Chenghuan sneered, "You haven't done it?"

"You woman, you're incredibly cunning. You used your late husband, Professor Jin Jinxian's, connections to start a company, and then you collaborated with gangsters to illegally import 'e-cigarettes'!"

"Damn it! This is synthetic cannabinoids, extremely potent hallucinogens. They affect the brain's dopamine system and can cause cognitive impairment, mood swings, and other problems after use. You actually dared to import this stuff for them? You're insane!"

"In addition, your luxury stores also have a considerable number of high-quality counterfeit goods, which are made in China. Do you need me to help you recall where the factories that make these counterfeit goods are located in China?"

Han Youli listened to Li Chenghuan's story.

Her graceful figure swayed precariously, and she was so frightened that she collapsed to the ground, tears of regret streaming down her face.

Her face was pale, and she was crying with tears streaming down her face.

"Prosecutor Li, please be merciful and give me a chance to reform, okay?"

"I can't lose all of this."

“I have a whole family who depend on me for food. I have a grandmother who is seriously ill, an abusive and gambling father, a vicious and selfish mother who treats me like a cash cow, a spendthrift and short-tempered younger brother who is always causing trouble, and all sorts of relatives who can't stand to see me doing well and keep asking me for money…”

"If I get arrested, my company is shut down, and I go bankrupt, they'll tear me apart."

Upon hearing this, Lee Seung-hwan frowned.

Is this woman making up a novel for him?

Are they all awful?

Seeing that Lee Seung-hwan didn't believe her, Han Yoo-ri disregarded her shame, crawled in front of Lee Seung-hwan, took out her phone, and showed him how her parents, her younger brother, and her relatives had humiliated her.

Lee Seung-hwan was stunned after reading the chat logs and the videos she had secretly filmed.

Are you serious?

No wonder this woman is willing to do anything to make money; she's stuck with such a large, evil family.

However, he never intended to ruin her reputation or make her suffer a fate worse than death. Instead, he asked indifferently, "I heard your stepson is Kim Jun-hyuk?"

Han Youli nodded, sobbing, "Yes."

"So how's your relationship?"

“He is respectful to me, but he is distant at heart. He only comes to visit me to exchange pleasantries during holidays.”

Lee Seung-hwan said calmly, "You know about his recent nomination as a minister, right?"

Han Youli shook her head blankly, "I don't know."

Lee Seung-hwan continued, "Did you know that I was also nominated?"

Upon hearing this, Han Youli immediately understood Li Chenghuan's meaning. "You...you want to use me to prevent my stepson from becoming a prosecutor?"

Lee Seung-hwan snapped his fingers. "Smart."

Han Youli's face was as pale as paper, and she said firmly, "Impossible, I would never do anything to betray him."

“I already owe them too much. If it weren’t for his father helping me withstand the pressure, insults and ridicule from the school and my classmates, I would have become a rat in the street, hated by everyone.”

"To repay his kindness, I married Professor Jin Jinxian, but he only treated me like a daughter, and I have always felt guilty towards him."

Upon hearing this, Lee Seung-hwan shook his head and said with a cold smile, "I just want Kim Joon-hyuk to have another stepfather. He must really crave fatherly love, right?"

Hearing Li Chenghuan's words, Han Youli froze, her face instantly turning bright red. "Don't even think about it."

Li Chenghuan's face darkened, and he raised his hand to slap her fair and smooth face. "You think I'm negotiating with you? Who do you think you are? I can ruin your reputation and send you to jail for life with just one word, and send your whole family to the crematorium while I'm at it. You have no right to negotiate with me."

"Now, because of your ignorance, I've changed my mind. Crawl over here obediently and show me your secret, and your sincerity..."
