The heavens begin from the golden years

Chapter 246 A Gift to Li Eliya

Hearing Yuan Xudong said that he wanted to marry Li Jaeyan, the little princess of the largest chaebol five-star group in the Republic of Korea, so as to achieve the goal of saving 20 years of struggle, even though he knew he was joking with himself, Li Yiliya still couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable , even more involuntarily hit Yuan Xudong with his mouth:
"You have a good idea. She is a high-ranking chaebol princess. She grew up rich and well-clothed, and the people around her are either rich or expensive. Can she look up to a civilian prosecutor like you?"

"Why not?"

Hearing that Li Yiliya's words meant to belittle herself, Yuan Xudong glanced at her and retorted:

"It's true that she is a high-ranking chaebol princess, but I'm not bad either!"

"I didn't say you were bad!"

Turning a blind eye to Yuan Xudong, Li Yiliya was driving, stepping on the gas pedal to speed up continuously, while curling her lips, a little unhappy said:

"It's not that you don't know. In the Republic of Korea, everything we want to do is to be well-matched. You are a commoner, and you are the daughter of a chaebol. Even if Li Zaiyan is blind, she can see you. Her family can agree with you Are the two together?"

"Look at what you said, it seems that Li Zaiyan has already taken a fancy to me, just kidding!"

Looking at Li Yiliya who was a little unhappy, Yuan Xudong's heart moved slightly, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth and said:

"I already have someone I like in my heart, how can I accommodate others!"

Hearing what Yuan Xudong said, Li Yiliya blurted out:
"Who?"

"what?"

"I mean who is the person you like in your heart, didn't you say you don't have a girlfriend?"

"Is there any necessary causal relationship between who I like and whether I have a girlfriend?"

Yuan Xudong leaned on the seat, put his hands behind his head as a pillow, glanced at Li Yiliya who was neat and tidy, and said with a smile:
"The girl I like already has a boyfriend, but it doesn't matter, I can wait slowly, just like Cao Cao in ancient China, do you know Cao Cao?"

"Cao Cao?"

"Yes, Cao Cao, the one in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms who held the emperor to make the princes, he is my idol since I was a child!"

"I don't know, do you like China very much?"

"Yes, don't you like it?"

"I can't say whether I like it or not. I don't know much about China. Can you speak Chinese?"

"A little bit, will you?"

"No, I'll just say one thing, how are you?"

Hearing Li Yiliya say how are you in Chinese with a strange accent, Yuan Xudong teased her in Chinese:

"Beauty, I want to be your boyfriend, do you want to?"

"Prosecutor, what are you talking about?"

"I'm saying that China is really powerful. The land area of ​​the Republic of Korea is only a little over one percent of China's, and the total population is only a little over three percent of China's. Many people look down on China, but they don't know People don’t see our Republic of Korea at all. Only a superpower like the United States can be compared with China. If I have the opportunity, I would like to visit China. The Great Wall, the Forbidden City, the Terracotta Army of Qin Shihuang, etc. Our Republic of Korea does not have these majestic ancient buildings .”

Yuan Xudong explained again in Korean, and when he finished speaking, as a genuine Korean, Li Yilia was a little unhappy and said:

"Why don't we have majestic ancient buildings in the Republic of Korea? Isn't it the Blue House, Gyeongbokgung Palace, and Changdeokgung Palace?"

Before Yuan Xudong could refute, Li Yilia continued:
"Also, China is a developing country, and the Republic of Korea is a developed country. It is the third developed country in Asia after Japan and Singapore. The per capita income exceeds US$[-]. Are these things comparable to China?"

After listening to Li Yiliya, Yuan Xudong didn't answer her directly, but asked tentatively:
"Are Confucius and Qu Yuan Chinese or Korean?"

"Chinese!"

Gazing at Yuan Xudong, Li Yilia was a little unhappy and said:

"What do you mean, do you think I'm the same as those netizens who don't understand anything?"

"No, I'll just ask casually!"

Seeing Li Yilia's expression of disbelief, Yuan Xudong laughed and said:

"Well, I admit that I am narrow-minded. If you say that Confucius and Qu Yuan are Koreans, then I have nothing to say. What you say is what you say. Fortunately, you don't have it. In fact, the Republic of Korea and China have their own differences. There are advantages and disadvantages, but on the whole, it is still better to have a vast territory and abundant resources, isn’t it?”

"But."

"But what?"

Before Li Yilia finished speaking, Yuan Xudong interrupted her directly:

"Is it difficult to admit that other countries are better than one's own country? If one can't even face up to one's own country, how can one change?"

"you"

Being stunned by Yuan Xudong, and the gap in overall national strength between South Korea and China is indeed too great, Li Yiliya said sullenly:

"Forget it, I can't say no to you, but you are a civil servant in the Republic of Korea. Is it really good to worship China like this?"

"What's wrong?"

Yuan Xudong glanced at Li Yiliya, and said calmly:
"The top group of people in the Republic of Korea, those who were pro-Japanese at the time, have now become chaebols, the upper class of our country, and the independence army?
If there is no monthly pension of 60 won, those old people can only go hungry, including us glamorous prosecutors, isn't it the product of war?From the Sino-Japanese Reform to the U.S. government period, from the Japanese to the Americans, those people at the top changed their masters and transformed themselves, and they still lived a life of superiority.

So, in our Republic of Korea, how many of those high-ranking big shots really love this country?What those big shots like to do most is to use things like patriotism, law, and human rights to confuse people, and let the people below work for them, calling it for the motherland, for democracy and freedom.

It's ridiculous to say that the reporters in our country dare to expose everything, those film and television works dare to shoot anything, and the common people like to watch it, but those high-ranking chaebols and those high-ranking officials and politicians just don't change it, so they can play whatever they want Playing, I am also speechless. Is this capricious, or does he not pay attention to the people below? "

"Isn't that how life is?"

Li Yiliya said calmly while driving:

"I don't know if you have read the news. Haitian Media, a subsidiary of Five Star Group, and its subsidiary Haitian Media, were exposed by reporters for sexually bribing members of Congress. Among them, the well-known actress Jin Chenxi committed suicide by cutting her wrist at home, leaving behind a more than 200-page In the suicide note, she accused the company of allowing her to receive more than 100 people, including Lee Sung-jae, the young owner of the Five Star Group.

Moreover, there are some gossip that these expelled people not only did not lose anything, but made a lot of money. The company sent them out to some companies that have nothing to do with the company on the surface, but are partners of each other. The person in charge can be said to have been promoted in disguise.

From the beginning to the end of this farce, the only person who was really hurt was Jin Chenxi, who committed suicide by slashing her wrists. The 200-page suicide note was useless at all, and only a few innocuous apologies were exchanged. , Then it was overshadowed by other news, and finally calmed down. "

After listening to Li Yiliya, the news of Jin Chenxi cutting her wrist and committing suicide involuntarily appeared in Yuan Xudong's mind. Jin Chenxi can be said to be the most tragic female star in Korea. Both her parents died when she was young. After her debut, she unfortunately became a shared plaything of the rich and powerful, and was forced to entertain the rich and powerful every day. If she tried to resist, she would not only be beaten severely, but even pay up to 10 billion yuan The sky-high liquidated damages in RMB, at this time, not only did the law fail to protect her, but was used by those with ulterior motives to control her to provide special services.

In the end, the unbearable Jin Chenxi had no choice but to commit suicide to end her hellish life. In her 200-page suicide note, she revealed the darkest side of the Korean entertainment industry with her blood and tears. , Ordinary trainees have to sign various sales contracts with entertainment companies, which contain a series of traps and punishment measures. Newcomers can either choose to quit the entertainment industry completely and become an ordinary person, or choose to sign a sales contract , there is no room for bargaining.

Obviously, most of the trainees will choose to sign a contract of sale, and then the company will spend a certain amount of resources to train these trainees, and the company will get [-]% of the income generated, and the trainees will get [-]%. When a big shot takes a fancy to a certain trainee, the result is self-evident.

According to the sale contract signed at the beginning, your body is also the property of the company. If you refuse to perform the contract, you will not only be hidden, but also pay various sky-high liquidated damages. Ordinary people will choose to give in, and then have the first There will be the second time, the third time, and countless times after that, the more glamorous the female star is, the more so, after all, the female star that even ordinary nerds like, those big shots who are easy to get, are they vegetarians? ?

The atmosphere in the car became dull. Li Yilia sympathized with Jin Chenxi's experience, and Yuan Xudong did the same. It's a pity that the two of them are insignificant little people and can't change anything.

After Jin Chenxi's suicide by cutting her wrist was exposed, especially the suicide note of more than 200 pages, the whole country was even more angry. Some people even went to the street to demonstrate, but in the end they were not suppressed by the people above After coming down, I randomly found two scapegoats as an outlet for public opinion, and those big shots who accepted sexual bribes were disgraced. As long as their skins are thick enough, they can still play as they want, drink as much as they want, and dance as much as they want , without Jin Chenxi, Li Chenxi, Han Chenxi, etc., the entertainment industry lacks everything, but there is no shortage of young and beautiful female stars, that is, charming, pure and lovely goddesses in the eyes of the general public.

All the way without a word, Li Yiliya carried Yuan Xudong back to the Central District Prosecutor. When the two of them re-entered the office, Yuan Xudong's secretary Park Eun-hye, as well as investigators Jiang Zhentai and Cha Xiuhao were discussing something together, in full swing. of.

Seeing Yuan Xudong and Li Yiliya walking in together, the three greeted each other and hurried back to their jobs to pretend to start working. Yuan Xudong raised the watch on his right wrist and looked at it. It was five o'clock in the afternoon. 58 points, and the last 2 minutes is six o'clock.

On weekdays, if there is no need to work overtime, Yuan Xudong will get off work and go home at this time. After he leaves, Jiang Zhentai and the others can go home from work. In the government department of the Republic of Korea with strict rules and regulations, loyalty and respect for leaders is a basic virtue. People who violate this virtue are people with moral problems. They are easy to encounter workplace bullying or cold violence, and are collectively boycotted by people around them. Ultimately leading to social death, either resign and go home, or suffer in silence.

"Okay, it's almost six o'clock, you guys get off work and go home first!"

Yuan Xudong glanced at Jiang Zhentai and the others and said with a smile:

"At eight o'clock in the evening, the department has a dinner. Remember to bring your family. By the way, where are we going to have dinner? Have you decided yet?"

After Yuan Xudong finished speaking, Jiang Zhentai, who was sitting behind the desk, jumped up and said:
"In the Hanji Barbecue Restaurant in Chengdong District, their barbeque is full of portions and the price is favorable. The most important thing is that the owner of the barbeque restaurant is my high school classmate. I can ask him to give us a few bottles of sake. In this case, the drinks tonight You don’t need to spend any more money, prosecutor, what do you think, is it okay to eat barbecue?”

Seeing that there was no objection, it was obvious that the discussion had already been made, Yuan Xudong nodded, and said in a good manner:

"Okay, let's have dinner at the Hanji Barbecue restaurant in Chengdong District. I still have something to do. You guys go there first. See you at eight o'clock tonight!"

"Then let's go first, goodbye prosecutor!"

"OK Bye Bye!"

After saying hello to Yuan Xudong, Jiang Zhentai and the others tidied up their desks and prepared to go home from work. Including Li Yiliya who had just returned from work with Yuan Xudong, Yuan Xudong hurriedly called to her and said:

"Li Yilia, you can go back later, I still need your help!"

"it is good!"

Glancing at Yuan Xudong, Li Yiliya stayed behind, Jiang Zhentai, Cha Xiuhao, and Park Eun-hye glanced at each other, and then walked out in silence. Before leaving, Park Enhui glanced at Li Yiliya, thinking It's a bit complicated. On the one hand, I admire the clean and tidy seniors, and on the other hand, I'm a little jealous. Li Yiliya is a clerk, and her job is only to record and sort out the case files. She belongs to the office staff, and she is Yuan Xudong's secretary. Responsible for all kinds of trivial matters, including taking care of Yuan Xudong, but now Li Yiliya does all her work and stays with Yuan Xudong all day long. As a secretary, she can only sit in the office to calculate accounts and clean up. Hygiene and so on are completely roles that can be replaced at any time. They are still the same as before, they belong to odd jobs, and they have no sense of security at all.

After Park Eun-hye was the last one to leave the office, Li Yilia looked at Yuan Xudong with some doubts and said:

"Prosecutor, what can I do for you?"

Coughing twice, clearing his throat, Yuan Xudong smiled slightly and said:

"It's nothing, I still owe you 100 million won? Come to my office and I'll give you the money!"

"Forget it, because you are willing to help Han Zhimin get justice, I will waive the 100 million won for you!"

"No, it's agreed that 100 million won is 100 million won. You don't need it, but I can't give it!"

After all, before Li Yiliya could speak, Yuan Xudong turned around and walked into his independent office. Seeing that Yuan Xudong insisted on giving himself the agreed 100 million won as remuneration, although it was a bit pedantic, Li Yiliya still admired it in his heart. He kept his promise like this, until she followed Yuan Xudong into the independent office, and Yuan Xudong handed her a beautifully wrapped gift box, she realized that she was wrong, this man is not pedantic at all, even a little dishonest, She clearly knew that she already had a boyfriend, and even gave herself expensive gifts in different ways. Although this boyfriend was fabricated by her and did not actually exist, Yuan Xudong didn't know.

Thinking of this, Li Yiliya weighed the gift box in his hand, with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth and said:

"My lord prosecutor, what's in it?"

"How about a beautiful watch worth your one million won?"
