"I'm sorry, Oppa. I didn't expect Chen Daojun to come back to find me today. I really haven't been in contact with him anymore. Please forgive me, okay?"

In the restaurant, Xu Minying looked guilty and apologetic.

She felt it was necessary to explain to Lee Seung-hwan.

We must not hurt his feelings.

She also warned herself that she must keep her distance from any man in the future. Since she had agreed to be Seung-hwan oppa's girlfriend, she should not have any entanglement with other men!

"Hahaha, Min-young, I never blamed you. I believe in your character and I have confidence in myself. Even if he is a third-generation chaebol, he can't take you away from me!" Lee Seung-hwan held Seo Min-young's slender, fair hand, his eyes filled with her.

Feeling her boyfriend's trust and ardent affection, Xu Minying was deeply moved.

She was the kind of woman who was easily satisfied.

She'll return double the amount if she gives her even the slightest feedback.

She suppressed her shyness, moved closer to Lee Seung-hwan, and took the initiative to kiss his lips...

I only ate half of the meal; the other half was the other person's saliva.

When the two came out of the restaurant, Xu Minying was dizzy, her face was flushed, as if she were drunk, and her eyes were completely filled with the image of Li Chenghuan.

She only recovered after the two returned to the prosecutor's office, and fled in a panic with a flushed face.

Watching her graceful figure disappear, Li Chenghuan smiled slightly. With Xu Minying as his "girlfriend," he had taken another step closer to establishing himself among the prosecutors.

However, after returning to his office, he recalled Park Tae-young's subtly threatening words, and a shadow fell over his face.

After finally making it to evening, Lee Seung-hwan told Seo Min-young that he had something to do that night and couldn't continue having dinner with her. Although Seo Min-young was a little disappointed, she expressed her understanding.

Subsequently.

Lee Seung-hwan and Jung Jik-soo rushed to a high-end bar near Itaewon and arrived at the private room according to the information given by Park Tae-young.

Knocking on the door of the private room, I saw Park Tae-young wearing a white shirt and tie. The long, low table in front of him was filled with various dishes. He was sitting there and beckoned to me: "Prosecutor Lee, come in."

He showed no intention of getting up.

This is actually considered very impolite in South Korean etiquette.

Lee Seung-hwan remained calm, took off his shoes, and went inside, sitting cross-legged opposite Park Tae-young.

The door to the private room was closed.

The outside noise was blocked out, and the private room was quiet.

While picking up some side dishes with his chopsticks and sipping his drink, Park Tae-young picked up his glass and gestured for Lee Seung-hwan to pick up the small glass of soju that had already been poured in front of him. He then smiled and said:

"Chenghuan, congratulations on your promotion to chief. Although as your senior I was quite upset that you were the one who got promoted and not me, I should be generous in congratulating you, shouldn't I? Hehehe..."

There was something wrong with Park Tae-young's tone.

Even a fool could see that he was just saying he'd be generous and congratulate Lee Seung-hwan.

Ultimately, it's because I'm unhappy and have grievances.

Lee Seung-hwan remained expressionless and cold: "Park Tae-young, if you have something to say, just say it directly. Don't beat around the bush. I have limited time and don't have time to waste on your nonsense."

Upon hearing this, Park Tae-young's eyes flashed with a hint of mockery and disdain. "Still putting on airs even when you're about to die," he thought, pointing to the wine glass in front of Lee Seung-hwan.

"Drink this glass of wine first, and then I'll tell you why?"

"Idiot!" To everyone's surprise, Li Chenghuan cursed after hearing this.

She stood up and was about to walk outside, not giving him any leeway.

"Damn it, how dare you ignore me!" Upon seeing this, Park Tae-young smashed his wine glass on the ground, making a dull thud as it hit the floor.

He pointed at Lee Seung-hwan's retreating figure and threatened, "Hey Lee Seung-hwan, I gave you a chance but you didn't take it! You're so ungrateful! If you dare to walk out of this door, I'll hand over all your dirt to the minister tonight, and you'll be dismissed from your post and lose your prosecutor status tomorrow, believe it or not?!"

Seeing that Park Tae-young had stopped pretending, Lee Seung-hwan turned his head and looked at his arrogant and domineering face, but his face showed no panic: "Oh? So you've been secretly investigating me all this time? Just because I was promoted to chief prosecutor, you felt it was unfair, so you wanted to take revenge on me?"

These South Korean bastards are really petty!

Park Tae-young, having his truth exposed by Lee Seung-hwan, stopped pretending and laid his cards on the table, glaring at him with resentment and saying, "You bastard, why should the minister give you the chief position? I've been a prosecutor for 10 years! I started from a remote prosecutor's office in Daegu and went through all sorts of hardships to get transferred to Seoul. I've worked diligently as a prosecutor for so many years, why am I not the chief?"

"What do you, Lee Seung-hwan, have that can compare to me?!"

"I don't agree!"

"So, I had the practice officer investigate your life trajectory from childhood to adulthood, and finally I found your flaws!"

"Hahaha! Lee Seung-hwan, you really know how to hide! If my assistant hadn't been so quick-witted, I would never have guessed that you had actually joined a gang and were once a member of the Jae-Ho gang, one of the largest gangs in Seoul. If I remember correctly, the late Seok Dong-chul, the chairman of the Kimmun Group who recently made headlines, was the boss of the Jae-Ho gang back then, wasn't he?"

“I have reason to suspect that you must have received help from Seok Dong-chul to become a prosecutor! Because I found out that Seok Dong-chul has been investigated many times but has always managed to get away with it. I suspect that this is related to you!”

"Furthermore, Shi Dongchu recently died unexpectedly. It's hard to say whether you were behind it. Perhaps Shi Dongchu knew too many of your secrets and was killed to silence him!"

As Park Tae-young coldly questioned and exposed Lee Seung-hwan, his eyes were fixed on Lee's face, trying to find some panicked expression.

As a result, Lee Seung-hwan remained completely unfazed.

He looked at Park Tae-young calmly. "Finished?"

Park Tae-young's face darkened: "What? You won't admit it? Or are you just pretending to be calm? Let me tell you, Lee Seung-hwan, I have ample evidence to show that you have a dirty past, connections with criminal gangs, and that you've engaged in bribery and provided them with protection!"

"Once this evidence is submitted to higher authorities, do you think you can get away scot-free?"

Lee Seung-hwan remained expressionless: "So, after all these threats, do you want me to hand over the position of Chief Prosecutor to you, or do you want me to submit to you?"

Park Tae-young actually nodded and said smugly, "You're very smart. If you don't want to lose your position as a prosecutor, then submit an application to the minister tomorrow morning, stating that you lack experience and ability and are willing to give up the position of chief prosecutor to me. Secondly, from now on, you must follow my lead and show me your loyalty. Then I might consider letting you off the hook for the time being!"

Hearing Park Tae-young's undisguised threats.

Lee Seung-hwan's expression finally changed.

Not fear, but terror.

Instead, he had a cold expression.

He rolled up his sleeves, revealing his strong forearms, and walked towards Park Tae-young. The latter was taken aback, thinking that Lee Seung-hwan had come to his senses, and then smiled smugly: "You're smart enough to know your place. Well then, kneel down in front of me obediently and let me see your sincerity..."

The words are not finished yet.

Park Tae-young was slapped across the face.

Snapped!

The slap was incredibly powerful; Park Tae-young nearly fell over, and several of his teeth were loosened. He covered his face, staring incredulously at the menacing Lee Seung-hwan: "Damn it! You dare hit me? You think you can get away with this…?"

Snapped!

Before he could finish speaking, he received another slap!

Lee Seung-hwan slapped Park Tae-young repeatedly, making him look like a grandson, with blood seeping from the corner of his mouth. Park Tae-young, who was passively being beaten, tried to fight back, but just as he was about to fight back, he was kicked in the stomach, causing him and the table to overturn. He was covered in vegetable leaves and soup, looking utterly disheveled.

"You son of a bitch, Lee Seung-hwan, are you insane?!"

Park Tae-young lay on the ground screaming and howling in disbelief that Lee Seung-hwan was so brutal, attacking him without warning. Didn't he fear that he would expose all of Lee Seung-hwan's dirty secrets to the public?

To everyone's surprise, after beating him, Li Chenghuan simply loosened his tie, stood condescendingly in front of him, and stepped on his face with his brand-new pointed leather shoes: "You want to report me? Then go ahead, I'd rather not be a prosecutor than not kill you first!"

He spoke these words with murderous intent, sharp eyes, and cold indifference, regarding Park Tae-young as nothing more than a pig or a dog.

Park Tae-young was stunned.

He had no doubt that this madman would actually do it!

Are you crazy?!

How dare he!

The advantage is clearly on my side!
