Hearing Li Chenghuan pledge his loyalty.

Shi Dongchu's face indeed showed a relieved smile.

He patted Lee Seung-hwan on the shoulder, “Hahaha… Seung-hwan, I didn’t misjudge you. Of all the key personnel in the group, you’re the one I value the most. Keep up the good work. After I retire, I’ll hand the group over to you. In my heart, you’re like my son. You’re the one who should succeed me, Seok Dong-chul… Come on, let’s have another drink, you and I…”

Having resolved his worries, Shi Dong became friendly towards Li Chenghuan again, and took the initiative to pour Li Chenghuan a cup of soju. The two continued to toast and chat happily.

Li Chenghuan remained unfazed, smiling as he clinked glasses with the old fox and downed his drink without hesitation.

He wondered if it was a perk of being a time traveler, but he always felt that his physique had become exceptionally good. Not only could he drink a lot without getting drunk, but he also had boundless energy.

until midnight.

Pretending to be completely drunk, Lee Seung-hwan helped the intoxicated Seok Dong-chul out of the tavern's private room. Several of Seok Dong-chul's subordinates, who had been waiting outside, quickly stepped forward.

He took the stone from Lee Seung-hwan and bowed slightly to him, saying, "Prosecutor, please hand the chairman over to us."

"Okay, hiccup... You, you... You must make sure the commander gets home safely, understand... Understand?" Li Chenghuan released Shi Dongchu, also pretending to be dazed, his steps unsteady and frivolous.

"But Prosecutor Li, are you alright?"

"No, it's okay. I'll just take a taxi back later. You guys go ahead."

"Yes."

They watched as Shi Dongchu was helped into a black Maybach sedan by his bodyguards and drove away slowly.

Lee Seung-hwan's previously hazy, drunken eyes suddenly cleared. He was no longer drunk; on the contrary, he stood up straight, full of energy.

With the help of the reflection in the glass outside the tavern, he could see his face and appearance clearly.

Standing over 180cm tall, with bright eyes and sharp eyebrows, dressed in a suit and tie, he has an excellent appearance. In South Korea, if someone is too ugly, even if they have a good score on the bar exam, they will be rejected.

This is a country where everyone judges by appearance.

As night deepened, aided by the memories in his mind, Li Chenghuan finally found the doorstep of the house he remembered by taking a taxi.

This is a high-end villa community located in Cheongdam-dong.

A two-story villa, worth over ten million!

As for Lee Seung-hwan, who had only been a prosecutor for less than three years, he naturally couldn't afford a house here. This house was a gift from Seok Dong to celebrate the year he passed the prosecutor's exam.

It is said that a thousand gold buys horse bones.

Lee Seung-hwan was the core of the gang on whom Seok Dong-chul placed high hopes.

It's worth the high price he spends to win them over.

There was a click.

Lee Seung-hwan took out his keys from his pocket, opened the door, and walked into the house.

Suddenly, a woman's voice, gentle yet alluring, rang in my ears.

"Is it Chenghuan who's back?"

Lee Seung-hwan was taken aback when he heard this, and then saw a beautiful figure walk out of the room.

She was dressed in traditional South Korean women's home attire, her hair piled high, revealing her small, oval face. On her delicate nose was a tiny mole, which, instead of disrupting the harmony of her face, added a touch of alluring charm.

Beneath her fair swan neck and collarbone, her skin was as white as snow. Although she was dressed conservatively, one could still notice her stunningly full curves.

She is not tall, only about 168 cm, but her body proportions are excellent. She is plump in the right places and slim in the right places, with not an ounce of excess fat on her body.

He combined his memories and recognized the woman's identity.

Han Youxi, the original owner's sister-in-law, is the wife of his brother Li Chengxian. The two were college classmates. Han Youxi took the initiative to pursue Li Chengxian, and they got married after graduation.

After marriage, Han Youxi gave up her job opportunity at a large conglomerate to become a full-time housewife and take care of Li Chengxian so that he could focus on preparing for the bar exam.

Who knew that Li Chengxian failed repeatedly, taking the bar exam six times before finally passing it. Not only did he exhaust all of his family's savings over the years, but he also ended up with a mountain of debt.

Ultimately, Lee Seung-hyun had to face reality and choose to become a lawyer, because he knew that even if he passed the bar exam, he would not pass the prosecutor's screening.

Both brothers are truly outstanding individuals.

After all, both prosecutors and lawyers are high-income, enviable, and respected professions in South Korea.

However, the two brothers have completely different personalities.

The original owner, Li Chenghuan, was clever and resourceful from a young age. He was alert and had a flexible moral compass. He was chosen by Shi Dongchu as a key member of the gang and joined the Jinmen Group at a very early age.

Lee Seung-hyun was honest, dull, rigid, conservative, and inflexible. He was known as a moral paragon. When he learned that Lee Seung-hwan had joined the gang, he had a big argument with him.

The two brothers had a falling out and stopped speaking to each other, but who would have thought that the younger brother, Lee Seung-hwan, would be so ambitious and smarter than his older brother, passing the prosecutor's exam first.

This made Li Chengxian very discouraged and depressed.

Especially in recent years, he has failed the bar exam one after another, which has made him even more depressed. Since he chose to become a lawyer, he has worked hard every day, specializing in working with poor people who cannot afford to litigate. He stays in the law firm all day and rarely goes home.

As for why his sister-in-law Han Youxi didn't live with him, it was because they were poor.

The previous bar exam was very expensive, leaving Han Youxi with a mountain of debt. As a result, she had to ask her family for money to help support the household, which earned her a lot of disdain from them.

Li Chengxian was filled with shame.

Faced with the harsh reality, Lee Seung-hyun didn't even have the money to rent an apartment in Seoul. In addition, he had been helping people with lawsuits for free for the past two years, so he was dirt poor.

As the younger brother, Li Chenghuan naturally couldn't stand by and watch his brother die. In fact, he offered to help his brother many times, but Li Chenghuan thought it was his own business and refused to help.

There was nothing else the original owner could do but reason with Li Chengxian and appeal to his emotions, saying, "Since you don't want my money, then you can stay at my house. You can't let your sister-in-law suffer with you and not even have a place to live, can you?"

Hearing these hurtful words...

Lee Seung-hyun ultimately compromised with reality.

Agree.

So the original owner proposed dividing the villa in two, with his older brother and sister-in-law living downstairs, while he himself would live upstairs.

Lee Seung-hyun was initially unwilling, thinking that providing a study for the couple to live in would be sufficient.

The original owner then offered another round of persuasion.

After much consideration, Lee Seung-hyun, who genuinely felt sorry for his wife who hadn't had a good life with him, agreed to move in with Han Yoo-hee, though he rarely came back to stay.

They usually live in the law firm, in a cramped little cubicle.

A complete workaholic.

My sister-in-law, Han Youxi, is also very sensible. Knowing that we are living under someone else's roof, she often helps with some housework.

She is a very virtuous and kind sister-in-law.

Lee Seung-hwan couldn't help but feel a little jealous.

Although after he became a prosecutor, many small tycoons and businessmen did want to marry their daughters to him, those people only wanted to use him as a prosecutor to profit themselves and as a protective shield.

The real big tycoons would never even look at a lowly grassroots prosecutor like him.

When Han Youxi saw that Li Chenghuan smelled of alcohol, she immediately knew that he had gone out for a social event again, so she stepped forward and said with concern, "Chenghuan, you've been drinking again. Let me make you a bowl of hangover soup."

Seeing this, Li Chenghuan quickly waved his hand: "It's alright, sister-in-law, no need to trouble yourself..."

But then they saw Han Youxi had already gone into the kitchen.
