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

Han Youli's head was buzzing from the slap Li Chenghuan delivered, and she stood there stunned.

Her cheeks quickly swelled up, and the burning pain brought tears to her eyes again.

Feelings of grievance and despair overwhelmed her like a tidal wave. She never imagined she would fall into such a desperate situation, let alone that this man would show no mercy and resort to such brutal methods.

You have to understand that in the past, almost every man she met was attracted to her beauty. She could say a few words that they liked to hear and they would be completely infatuated with her. They would never do anything so outrageous to her.

But when faced with a domineering and ruthless prosecutor like Lee Seung-hwan, her beauty was useless. After all, Lee Seung-hwan had been tested by more than a dozen women whose looks were no less than hers.

She is very beautiful and has a lot of charm.

But it was far less important than the position of minister in Lee Seung-hwan's eyes.

Under Lee Seung-hwan's threats and intimidation, Han Yoo-ri felt extreme fear and helplessness, and her psychological defenses completely collapsed.

She knew that Lee Seung-hwan had the power to make everything he said a reality, and that her family, her career, and everything she owned would vanish into thin air.

In order to preserve all of this, she ultimately chose to submit.

She slowly knelt down before Li Chenghuan, her body trembling, and crawled step by step to him, her eyes filled with humiliation and helplessness, tears streaming down her face.

With trembling hands, she pulled down Lee Seung-hwan's pants... A gruesome scene unfolded in the room, and time seemed to stand still.

She didn't know how much time had passed, but it was finally over. Han Youli slumped to the ground, her mouth a mess, her eyes vacant, as if her soul had been ripped away.

As Li Chenghuan straightened his clothes, his expression was one of dissatisfaction. He never expected that this woman's skills in serving others would be so clumsy and useless, just like a complete novice with no experience.

He then recalled Xin Yu's words about how she was good at using her beauty to get men to do things for her. She neither took the initiative nor refused, and she could move between men unscathed. It seemed that she didn't rely on selling her body, but on psychological manipulation. She didn't give anything in return. If she did, it might be by playing the victim or providing some emotional value to those men.

So, he actually struck gold?

A satisfied smile returned to his face.

He looked at Han Youli on the ground and said calmly, "Remember, from now on, you'd better behave yourself, otherwise, your fate will be ten thousand times worse than today."

Han Youli nodded mechanically; she no longer had the strength to resist.

“Next, you’re going to do something,” Lee Seung-hwan continued. “Using the excuse of congratulating Kim Joon-hyuk on his nomination as minister, visit his home and then secretly put a few of those e-cigarettes you’re smuggling into his house.”

Han Youli's heart tightened upon hearing this, but she dared not utter a word of dissent and could only nod again.

"If you dare to play any tricks, you know the consequences," Li Chenghuan threatened.

Han Youli said in a low voice, "I dare not, I will definitely do as you say."

“Very good.” Lee Seung-hwan stood up with satisfaction. “After you’ve finished this, just wait for my next instructions.” With that, he left Han You-li’s villa without looking back.

Han Youli watched Li Chenghuan's departing figure, her heart filled with regret and resentment. She never imagined that she would be drawn into such a terrible conspiracy.

She has no choice but to blame herself for not being able to resist temptation, for being too easily swayed, and for being too weak in front of her family.

In fact, Han Youli is a very smart and resourceful woman. She entered Seoul National University by forging her identity as an exchange student from a California university.

Using her beauty and talent, she was adept at social interaction and captivated countless young men, even becoming Professor Jin Jinxian's last disciple.

Despite setbacks, she still managed to achieve a series of accomplishments that are hard for ordinary people to imagine, by utilizing the resources and connections at her disposal as an ordinary girl without any backing or capital.

He built his import and export trading company from scratch, which is now valued at tens of millions of US dollars. In addition, he also owns two overseas luxury brand stores, making him a model of success story.

No one knows how much hardship and effort she put in.

The motivation for all of this came mostly from her family, or rather, from their oppression, control, moral blackmail, and urging.

Everyone treated her as a money-making machine and a cash cow.

This vampire takes all the money that trading companies and luxury stores earn each year.

Not only that, they were not satisfied. On several occasions, they even tried to embezzle her company's working capital. If this continued, her company would go bankrupt sooner or later.

Driven to desperation, she had no choice but to take a risk and accept a cooperation invitation from a criminal gang, using her family's trading company's channels to smuggle prohibited e-cigarettes for them.

In addition, in order to reduce the cost of goods for luxury stores, she contacted a manufacturer in China that specializes in making high-quality replicas of luxury goods and regularly purchases goods from them.

To be honest, the high-quality replicas of luxury goods made by Chinese people, such as shoes, clothes, jewelry and bags, are so good that they are often much better than the genuine products.

Many wealthy customers who come to her store to buy luxury goods always praise her after they leave, saying that the quality of her products is the best they have ever seen, and they will come back again next time!

It was through these crooked methods that Han Youli was able to barely withstand the bloodsucking of a family of vampires. However, she also knew that this was not a long-term solution. After being sucked blood for so many years, she was on the verge of collapse.

Just when she was thinking about how to escape the control of her family of origin, Li Chenghuan came to her door and immediately shattered all her hopes, seizing her weak point and fatal flaw.

In order to avoid ruining his reputation and going to jail.

She could only compromise.

So the next day, Han Youli, who had been suffering from insomnia all night, forced herself to get up, dragged her tired body to take a cold shower, covered her dark circles with heavy makeup, bought some gifts, and went to Jin Junhe's house.

She was restless the whole way, and the image of Li Chenghuan's cold and ruthless eyes kept flashing through her mind.

Arriving at Kim Joon-hyuk's door, she took a deep breath and pressed the doorbell.

Kim Jun-hyuk opened the door and saw his stepmother, Han Yoo-ri. He was surprised and wondered why his nominal stepmother would suddenly come to visit him.

He was thirty-six years old, about 175 cm tall, with a well-proportioned appearance. He wore black-rimmed glasses, his hair was neatly combed and styled with hair wax, and he was dressed in casual clothes.

At his age, he is in the prime of his career, full of energy, able to handle high-intensity work tasks and complex situations, and his mind is almost fully mature, making it his golden age.

It's worth noting that they were actually about the same age. In fact, Han Youli was only one year ahead of him back then, but after those events, she sadly dropped out of school.

He originally thought she would disappear from the public eye, but he never expected that his father would turn around and marry this senior, making her his stepmother. At that time, Kim Jun-hyuk was extremely angry and confused.

She even complained to her father about why he would do something so self-degrading, ruining his reputation and image.

But his father didn't explain to him. He just said that his stepmother was also a pitiful person and that he should try to understand her. But Kim Jun-hyuk didn't understand at the time. Instead, he resented his father, thinking that he was disrespectful to his elders and had betrayed his deceased mother. He didn't contact his father for two years.

Unexpectedly, when he received another message from his father, he learned that his father was already terminally ill.

From then on, Kim Joon-hyuk felt even more disgusted with his stepmother.

He felt that this woman was only after their family's money, and that she had used his father in every way possible, even resorting to unscrupulous means. She controlled him by marrying him and seized their family's assets. Not content with that, she used some means to kill his father.

However, he was troubled by the lack of evidence.

So over the years, apart from visiting Han Youli's home during holidays to exchange pleasantries and show basic courtesy, he basically ignored her and treated her like a stranger or a distant relative.

Despite his deep loathing for Han Youli.

But Kim Joon-hyuk showed no sign of it on his face. Instead, he politely said, "Aunt Han... what brings you here?"

Han Youli forced a smile and said, "Junhe, I heard you were nominated as a minister. Auntie is here to congratulate you."

"Aunt Han is very well-informed. I was only recently nominated, and things are still very uncertain." Kim Jun-hyuk invited Han You-li into the house and made her a cup of tea.

With his wife and children away from home, Kim Joon-hyuk seemed a little uncomfortable with Han Yoo-ri's sudden visit. After a moment of silence, he asked Han Yoo-ri, "Aunt Han, is there anything else?"

Upon hearing this, Han Youli sensed Jin Junhe's unwelcoming attitude. After hesitating for a moment, she slowly said, "Junhe, I came to apologize to you about your father's matter."

"Actually, you've misunderstood him all along. If it weren't for your father, I probably would have been driven to my death by those people back then. It was your father who saved me and helped me through the crisis. I took the initiative to marry him in order to repay him."

"Your father always treated me like his daughter, always kept himself pure and never touched me. He was a kind and good man, highly respected and honest throughout his life. He is the person I admire and am most grateful to."

"His death wasn't an accident; he had been suffering from cancer for a long time, but he didn't tell anyone except me, and he told me not to tell you, so..."

Han Youli revealed the truth about how Kim Jun-hyuk's father, Kim Jin-hyun, married her back then.

After hearing this, Kim Jun-hyuk appeared dazed, his heart filled with complex and frustrated emotions.

So that’s it!

He felt ashamed that he had misunderstood his father and spoken rudely to him because of this; he was such a bastard!

My father must have been very disappointed in me back then.

A feeling of regret welled up in Kim Jun-hyuk's heart.

"Excuse me, Aunt Han, I'll be right back in a minute."

Kim Jun-hyuk didn't want to show his emotional instability in front of outsiders, so he made an excuse to go to the bathroom to calm down.

use this opportunity.

Han Youli bit her lower lip, her eyes scanning the room, searching for an opportunity to hide drugs.

Soon, her gaze settled on the sofa she was sitting on, and she quickly took out the e-cigarettes containing drugs from her bag and hid them in the gaps of the sofa.

After doing all this, her heart was pounding, fearing that Kim Joon-hyuk would find out.

When Kim Jun-hyuk returned after calming down, he didn't notice anything unusual. He first apologized to Han Yoo-ri, saying that he had misunderstood her all along.

Han Youli quickly waved her hand and said it was nothing. She never took these things to heart. After all, she had received a great favor from the Jin family.

After this incident, the relationship between the nominal "mother and son" improved considerably. Han Youli sat for a while longer before getting up to say goodbye.

Kim Jun-hyuk escorted her to the door and said, "Aunt Han, please take care."

Han Youli forced herself to remain calm and said, "Junhe, work hard, Auntie believes you can do it."

After leaving Kim Joon-hyuk's house, Han Yoo-ri immediately called Lee Seung-hwan to tell him that everything was settled. However, she felt vaguely uneasy. Professor Kim Jin-hyun had been so good to her, yet she had chosen to betray his son, Kim Joon-hyuk. She felt like a truly wicked woman...

Upon receiving her message, Lee Seung-hwan's eyes revealed a confident smile.

"Very good, now it's my turn."

After hanging up the phone, Lee Seung-hwan immediately mobilized his connections. Soon after, a group of police officers arrived at Kim Joon-hyuk's house.

"Bang, bang, bang!" The police knocked on the door.

Kim Joon-hyuk opened the door and was startled to see a group of police officers standing there. He asked, "What can I do for you?"

A burly policeman surnamed Ma said sternly, "Prosecutor Kim Jun-hyuk, you have been reported for possessing drugs in your home. We are now going to search your house."

Kim Joon-hyuk looked bewildered and said, "Drugs? How could that be? I'm a prosecutor myself. Would I break the law? Are you sure you're not mistaken?"

"Are you kidding me? We'll find out once we search you." After saying that, the police officer led his men into the house.

Kim Jun-hyuk was filled with doubt and unease. He didn't know what was going on, but he vaguely sensed that something was wrong.

Soon, the police found the e-cigarettes hidden in the gap of the sofa.

"What is this?" the police officer asked, holding up an e-cigarette.

When Kim Jun-hyuk saw the e-cigarettes, he was stunned. He hurriedly explained, "These aren't mine. I don't know how they ended up in my house. Damn it, this is a frame-up! This is definitely a frame-up!"
