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

"How did you know?"

This time it was Lee Ji-eun's turn to be surprised. She didn't expect that this prosecutor oppa would know her surname so easily.

"I guessed," Li Chenghuan said with a smile, then looked at her with admiration: "You are a very responsible girl, and you work hard enough, but you just lacked a bit of luck. Now, your luck has come."

He couldn't possibly tell her that he knew about her, a future top South Korean actress, from another world, could he?

After all, who could have known that this person came from a poor family, was heavily in debt, and had failed more than twenty trainee auditions in order to earn money to support his family and pursue his dream of becoming a singer?

Will the girl who was publicly ridiculed and repeatedly thwarted in her pursuit of her dreams become a famous South Korean millionaire earning billions of won a year in the future?

When Lee Ji-eun saw that Lee Seung-hwan did not show disdain or contempt after learning about her family background, but instead encouraged her, she felt a warmth in her heart: "Thank you for comforting me."

Lee Seung-hwan waved his hand and said with a smile that it was nothing. In fact, he had gotten a great deal by meeting Lee Ji-eun when she was down on her luck. It was a strange feeling. Could he be the benefactor who made her change her fate and become an overnight sensation?

Just as he was about to say something more.

Suddenly, a noisy shouting came from outside the room.

"Oh my god, everyone come out quickly, it's Minister Han!"

"Really? That's so lucky!"

"Great!"

……

Upon hearing this commotion, Li Chenghuan immediately got up and prepared to go out to see what was going on. It seemed that a big shot had arrived at the club.

As Lee Ji-eun saw Lee Seung-hwan walk out the door, she quickly ran after him with her slender legs. Tonight, she belonged only to Lee Seung-hwan, so she had to serve him well. Although she had no experience in this area, she would try her best to overcome difficulties and strive to get a good evaluation from Lee Seung-hwan.

Moreover, this was both her first and last time at the club. Sister Namjoo told her that even if she only accompanied a VIP customer once, she could earn up to 5000 million won. If the customer was very satisfied and gave her a separate tip, it would be normal to earn hundreds of millions of won in one night.

This is why clubs have many second- or third-tier stars and girl groups. In South Korea, apart from top-tier singers and actors, other artists don't earn much.

Even some very popular boy and girl groups, after layers of deductions, earn less in a month than some white-collar workers in big companies.

Over time, some celebrities will succumb to depravity and choose to come to clubs, while others will be desperate, like Lee Ji-eun.

This is a huge sum of 5000 million won, enough for her to improve her family's living conditions and ensure that her grandmother and younger brother have enough to eat and wear!

She could even save some money to participate in singer auditions!

Just as Lee Ji-eun followed Lee Seung-hwan outside the club, she saw a crowd of people pouring out from all directions. Some were impeccably dressed, some were disheveled, and some seemed to have just come from a brothel, with lipstick marks on their faces...

Without exception, these people craned their necks, huddled together, and looked toward the direction of the club entrance.

Under the spotlight.

A man dressed in a suit and tie, with a handsome and refined appearance, and an air of kingly authority, appeared before the crowd.

The moment this man appeared, he seemed like a natural protagonist. Just by standing there, he exuded the aura of a leader, and everyone centered around him, greeting him with extreme enthusiasm, even to the point of being obsequious.

"Minister Han, it's been a long time! You haven't been to our club in ages. What brings you here today?"

"Minister Han, I heard you recently dealt with another competitor. The position of chief prosecutor should be within your grasp now, right?"

"I've long heard of Minister Han's reputation, but never had the chance to meet him. It's a great honor to finally see you in person today! I'd like to propose a toast to you!"

"I heard that our Minister Han was the top scorer in the judicial examination that year, and also ranked first in the interview. He became the chief prosecutor at less than 25 years old! Minister Han has been upright and incorruptible over the years, unafraid of powerful figures. He has personally investigated and prosecuted countless corrupt officials and tycoons. He is a role model for all of us young prosecutors!"

"Yes, even the people of South Korea say that as long as Minister Han is there, those corrupt officials and powerful people won't dare to be arrogant. When Minister Han comes, justice prevails! No one dares to raise objections to the cases handled by Minister Han!"

"Minister Han, do you remember me? I treated you to a meal two and a half years ago. Recently, I've run into some trouble and would like to ask for your guidance. Also, I know you enjoy tea, so I specially prepared some top-quality imported Chinese tea bricks for you. When would you have time to take a look at the quality of these tea bricks?"

Everyone gathered around Minister Han, some flattering him, some praising him excessively, some wanting to ask him for favors, and others wanting to become acquainted with him.

Lee Seung-hwan even spotted Choi Byung-sung in the crowd.

The old man shamelessly went up to Minister Han, had a drink with him, and chatted for a few minutes.

Logically speaking, the two hold the same official position, both being ministers. However, it is quite obvious that Choi Byung-sung, the minister of the Criminal Investigation Department, appears somewhat obsequious and ingratiating when facing Minister Han.

This Minister Han's power and influence seem to be astonishing.

after that.

This group of prosecutors and dignitaries, who were high and mighty in the outside world, surrounded Minister Han like stars around the moon, and welcomed him to the most conspicuous sofa in the middle of the club's ballroom.

It turns out this seat was prepared for him.

Standing at the back of the crowd, Lee Seung-hwan glanced at Minister Han's appearance from afar, his expression shifting slightly as he immediately recognized him.

It was him!

The villain in the movie "The King," a film about prosecutors, is Han Kang-jik, the head of the strategic department of the Seoul Supreme Prosecutors' Office. He is a powerful prosecutor who can control everything and has terrifying power. He is so strong that he doesn't even care about the chief prosecutor of a local prosecutor's office.

He was known for his fearlessness in the face of power and his upright and incorruptible character.

He is a veteran celebrity prosecutor. In recent years, as he has gotten older, he has not appeared in the news as frequently as he did when he was younger. However, those who know him well know that this is because the prosecutor's power has gradually grown, and he no longer needs to show his face in public like before.

He now has a group of trusted subordinates at his disposal. All he needs to do now is stand behind the scenes as the chess player, directing his pieces to charge into battle and conquer cities and strongholds.

In the prosecutor system, Han Qiangzhi is undoubtedly a leading figure among the younger generation, a true leader, and countless ambitious young prosecutors would love to be his lackeys.

It can be said that he was practically a protagonist template, rising to power with incredible speed and skill. The reason he didn't become the chief prosecutor was simply because he wasn't old enough.

Otherwise, with his prestige and ability, he would already be the chief prosecutor by now. If he had accumulated more than ten years of experience, he could definitely have reached the position that countless prosecutors dream of.

Prosecutor General!

Compared to Lee Seung-hwan, Han Kang-sik is clearly more like the protagonist at this moment!

Lee Seung-hwan's eyes were scanning the surroundings. He remembered that in the drama "The King," the male lead, Park Tae-soo, encountered Han Kang-jik the first time he came to the club.

Because he refused to associate with a rich second-generation who had defiled a female student, he angered Han Kang-sik, who slapped him twice, completely waking Park Tae-soo up.

To impress Han Kang-sik, Park Tae-soo publicly drank a toast with the rich second-generation heir, seemingly burying the hatchet, which indeed caught Han Kang-sik's attention.

As a result, Park Tae-soo integrated into Han Kang-shik's circle and later became his confidant, enjoying immense prestige and rising to become one of the truly powerful 1% of prosecutors.

However, because he still retained some conscience, and was burdened by his incompetent teammates and family, he turned against Han Qiangzhi, was abandoned by him, and finally became his enemy.

After a series of scheming and unexpected twists, justice ultimately triumphed over evil, and Han Qiangzhi fell from power...

Lee Seung-hwan believes this drama is indeed very exciting, especially the extremely realistic portrayal of the villain Han Kang-sik. The drama also contains many bloody and realistic quotes.

It was very enlightening, and I suddenly understood after listening to it.

Lee Seung-hwan searched everywhere but couldn't find Park Tae-soo.

It seems I arrived too early.

That kid is probably still taking the bar exam.

Lee Seung-hwan changed his mind and also picked up a glass of wine. He followed the prosecutors to Han Kang-sik, bowed slightly and said, "Minister Han, I am Lee Seung-hwan from the Seoul District Prosecutors' Office. I have long heard of your deeds. I am honored to finally meet you in person today. I hope I can offer you a toast."

In officialdom, bowing down to others, currying favor, taking sides, and even kneeling are all common occurrences.

Ambitious people will stop at nothing to climb the ladder of power.

At this stage, Han Qiangzhi is indeed an absolute powerhouse! In fact, Li Chenghuan, that future father-in-law, wouldn't be much stronger than Han Qiangzhi in terms of power.

But reality is not fiction.

Lee Seung-hwan is just a minor chief prosecutor now. Even Minister Choi Byung-sung has to bow and scrape to Han Kang-sik. Who does he think he is?

Han Qiangzhi had no recollection of Li Chenghuan. When a young prosecutor came to toast him, Han Qiangzhi simply nodded slightly, took a sip of wine, and then turned his head away, ignoring him.

Lee Seung-hwan was not angry.

This is normal; there are plenty of people who want to curry favor with Han Qiangzhi.

Countless prosecutors would beg to be Han Qiangzhi's lackeys, but none of them had the chance.

If you want him to pay attention to you, you have to achieve something first.

Lee Seung-hwan did not deny that he also wanted to curry favor with Han Kang-sik, because Han Kang-sik had access to an incredibly large archive containing countless scandals about South Korean dignitaries, politicians, and celebrities.

With that file archive.

Han Kang-sik could even influence the South Korean presidential election!

This is why this guy is so domineering, and why he doesn't even respect the chief prosecutor in the show.

It's very simple. Many prosecutors also have a lot of blemishes on their records, and these blemishes are all in the Strategic Department's archives. Once they are brought out, it will be a devastating blow to them!

After toasting Han Qiangzhi, Li Chenghuan suddenly had some ideas and was about to leave when, just as he turned around, his arm was grabbed by Li Zhi'en's small hand.

She looked at Lee Seung-hwan with pitiful eyes: "Aren't you going to ask me to stay with you tonight?"

Lee Seung-hwan was taken aback, then said apologetically, "I have some things to take care of... I know you're short on money, just give me a bank account number, and I'll have someone transfer some money to your account... and then..."

He hasn't finished speaking yet.

I saw that Lee Ji-eun was crying her eyes out, looking pitiful. Between sobs, she said in a choked voice, "Oppa, please, don't go! I really will be good! I have a talent, I can perform for you, please give me a chance... please!"

Seeing her pitiful appearance, Li Chenghuan couldn't help but soften and asked, "What can you do?"

Lee Ji-eun quickly replied, "I can sing, dance, and act. I've also taught myself English and Mandarin. I can even give you a massage..."

Upon hearing this, Li Chenghuan's eyes lit up slightly: "Dancing is great! I need to learn to dance!"
