Chapter 193:
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
Choi Gichul asked Jung Jinsup, “Can we pause the trading again on Bit Trading?”
“Technically, we can do it whenever we want, but if we do it too often, we will get complaints from the users.”
“So we shouldn’t use it too often.”
“Exactly.”
Choi Gichul rubbed his chin. After the conversation with Choi Taemin, he hasn’t been able to sleep. Should he run to Kang Woosung and ask for help?
Or should he try to save himself?
Choi Gichul knew he had to do it on his own or else, it could backfire.
‘I will use all the funds from Daeyang and make money by investing in bitcoins. I will then transfer the profits into my personal Bitmain account.’ Choi Gichul continued to think. ‘But then what? I could convince Suk Jinmyung to give me some proofs on Choi Taemin. I will send Choi Taemin to jail. That’s probably what Kang Woosung wants too. That must be why he sent Chun Gisu to me.’
Choi Gichul’s breath became shallow. Jung Jinsup stared at him, but Choi Gichul didn’t notice and continued to think.
‘Kang Woosung could probably send Choi Taemin to prison easier and faster than I can. Does this mean I need to ask him for help after all? Phew. Yes, I think that’s for the best.’
Choi Gichul called Woosung.
He was shocked when he heard the message.
“This phone number does not exist anymore. Please dial the correct number.”
“This phone number does not exist anymore. Please dial the correct number.”
‘He changed his phone number?’
Now there was no way for him to contact Woosung. After thinking, he headed towards the Korean Business Agency building. He had to meet with Woosung and resolve this situation.
When he entered the office, Choi Gichul was met with Chun Gisu instead of Woosung.
Chun Gisu explained, “President Kang is busy. I am taking care of his business for now.”
“So Kang Woosung won’t even meet with me in person?”
Chun Gisu stretched his arms and replied, “You are not as important anymore.”
Choi Gichul gritted his teeth. His pride was hurt, but there was nothing he could do. It was true, Kang Woosung was now beyond his reach.
Chun Gisu said to him, “Did you decide to leave Daeyang?”
Chun Gisu asked slowly, “Can you really protect me?”
“Haha, of course.”
Chun Gisu pushed the interphone button on his desk.
Beep.
Several men in black walked in.
Chun Gisu explained, “We will double your bodyguards and install security systems in your house. We will monitor everything you do.”
“What about my assistant from Choi Taemin who follows me around everywhere?”
“What do you want us to do? We can shut him up or we can get rid of him.”
Choi Gichul swallowed. He hadn’t realized how powerful Woosung was.
Chun Gisu continued, “All you have to do is bring us the smoking gun. That’s all we ask of you.”
Choi Gichul was furious at Chun Gisu’s disrespect, but he had no choice but to leave.
When he left, Chun Gisu murmured quietly, “Did you hear all that?”
His cell phone was turned on the whole time.
A voice answered, “I see that a lot has changed.”
“I can’t believe I used to work for that idiot.”
“…”
“You must know by now that the faster you make your decision, the better treatment you will receive from us.”
“I know.”
“If you stay at Daeyang, you will be used as a scapegoat. You have already done more than you needed to for Daeyang.”
“I understand what you’re saying.”
“So what is your decision?”
“I am just not sure if Kang Woosung is someone I can trust. I could end up in a worse situation.”
Suk Jinmyung couldn’t trust anyone easily. He couldn’t believe Chun Gisu either.
Chun Gisu replied, “I understand what you are feeling. We have never been close. I understand you would be worried and afraid, but think of it this way, you already know what will happen if you stay at Daeyang, and it’s not pretty.”
Suk Jinmyung had never regretted working for Daeyang until now.
Chun Gisu continued, “Technically, wasn’t it Chairman Choi Gunwon who gave you the scholarships? What happened to him?”
Suk Jinmyung’s heartbeat started to hasten. He felt thirsty. Chun Gisu raised his voice.
“He harmed his own father! What are you expecting from him?”
After a quick hesitation, Suk Jinmyung finally gave his answer.
***
Dark night.
Lee Sunghyun was brought to Woosung to a secret place in Sungbook Dong. When he walked in, Woosung didn’t even stand up.
He asked, “Have a seat.”
Lee Sunghyun sat down nervously. Woosung was being rude, but it was clear who was the boss in this room.
Woosung continued, “I heard you have something to say to me.”
“These are the documents on Daeyang. The prosecutors have been keeping these a secret.”
Woosung’s lawyer approached them and took the envelope from Lee Sunghyun. He examined them quickly. The lawyer was someone Lee Sunghyun knew.
“Prosecutor Go? What are you doing here?”
He didn’t get an answer. Woosung also remained silent.
Lee Sunghyun continued, “I see that you hired many people.”
“Tell me what you came to say.”
“Um… You have been invited to the Blue House as soon as possible. You will get everything you want. We could give you an award. We can help you with your business any way you want.”
“I don’t need any help with my business.”
“I wasn’t planning on saying this, but…”
“Then you shouldn’t.”
Lee Sunghyun reddened.
He yelled, “I can destroy both of us.”
“I don’t understand what you’re saying.”
“If you continue to be like this, I will let people know that you bribed me. I am done for anyway, and I can drag you down with me.”
Woosung laughed loudly, “Haha, is that it? You’re really going to threaten me with that?”
“I will do anything to fix this situation.”
“Haha. This is why you can never trust a politician. Good thing I never trusted you.”
Lee Sunghyun paled.
Woosung leaned back into the sofa and continued, “You must have not understood this situation. The government will always change, but the rich and powerful will always remain the same.”
Lee Sunghyun couldn’t deny this fact.
Woosung added, “Money rules the world, and who has the most money? That would be me. No one can touch me. So if you’re threatening me with our past bribery, go ahead. Do it. You will see who gets destroyed.”
Lee Sunghyun stammered, “I, I didn’t mean it like that. I meant we should try to get along.”
“I heard it as a threat. You are a lawyer. You know what it sounds like.”
Lee Sunghyun couldn’t hide his anxiety. He has never been treated his way, especially since his father became the President of Korea.
As the tension rose, Woosung’s lawyer said to him, “Sir, the documents are legit. With them, we should be able to carry out our plan.”
“Good.”
Lee Sunghyun asked hopefully, “D… does this mean you’ll help me?”
“I am willing to talk to you, but that’s it. Of course, you did just threaten me, so I’m not sure if I should help you.”
Lee Sunghyun gritted his teeth.
