‘Beijing Zhongquan Hui’, the most luxurious social gathering place in Beijing, China

Among the top figures in China, this place is known as ‘the gathering place of the moonlight’ and has become a hotbed of power-type corruption.

‘Zhong Guo Hui’ remodeled the ‘Shai Garden’, the residence of the Qing Dynasty’s prince, and was very popular as it was equipped with all modern facilities without losing its strong Chinese style.

A spacious banquet hall that can accommodate about 250 people.

27 private rooms available to anyone.

A club lounge where famous DJs are always on standby.

Four garden lanterns decorated with all kinds of plants.

It boasted the luxury of a high-end social gathering place.

As the sun went down and darkness descended, ‘Beijing Zhongquan Hui’ became more busy.

Already in the banquet hall and in the garden, many people were wandering around in formal attire, concentrating on social activities.

Most of these people stayed as associate members, but their goal was to somehow make friends with influential people and move up to full members.

So, where are the real ones?

Unlike the noisy outdoor banquet hall, relatively few people were enjoying drinking and dancing in the club lounge ‘Mingshiel’.

These were the leading figures of the Taishan Association, China’s top social gathering.

The main table was strewn with expensive champagnes such as Dedom Perignon and Armandy.

Above all, the appearance of the men and women sitting was unusual.

Wang Yenan, second daughter of former General Secretary Zhao Ziyang of the Communist Party.

Liu Mingming, the only daughter of former President Liu Oichi.

Hwa Moo-pyeong, the son of the chairman of Taihuang Life Insurance.

Li Zicheng, the successor of Fuhua Group.

Chun Li-hwa, the second son of Cheongsu Group, a real estate conglomerate.

Yang Chenkun of Huarun Group, a Chinese distribution conglomerate.

There was no shortage of them even if they were the families that moved China.

“Isn’t the water unusual today?”

“Why? It wasn’t bad though?”

Yang Chenkun looked around at the women wearing red bracelets and said.

“Why do all of you look arrogant? It’s not my style.”

“Crazy bastard. I guess he’s tired of it after messing around with him for so long.”

“By the way, did Song Gyu-ha really come here?”

Liu Mingming, wearing a cheongsam showing off her legs, asked Li Jiacheng of the Fuhua Group, who could be called the leader.

“I said I’d bring it, so I’ll be back soon. If it’s a lie, that bastard Liaofan will be killed by me.”

Yang Chenkun said while pouring a glass of wine.

“hehehe, the world will be surprised. Knowing that the action star Liaofan is a faithful dog who pretends to die at Li Zicheng’s words.”

“They’re sitting there talking like action stars. Aren’t they stabbed in the body? Among all the bastards who boast about working hard in front of me, let’s see who’s breathing right now… Ah! He’s lived as one. He can’t walk all his life, though. “

Yang Chenkun shook his head as he saw Li Zicheng talking about cruel things casually.

“Scary guy. I’m glad I’m not your enemy.”

Yang Qiankun’s words were met with silence by the others.

Although Fuhua Group itself was a company that grew out of darkness, Li Zicheng was fundamentally different.

Bioethics is like throwing a dog. I have been buying animals since I was young and killing them brutally as a hobby.

As an adult, he showed a cruel disposition to the extent that he did not hesitate to kill himself as well as a murder teacher.

It was actually only a matter of time before he was even smart enough to take over the Fuhua Group.

“I hope you come soon. I’m a big fan of Song Kyu-ha. I’ll have to take a picture later.”

Li Zicheng’s eyebrows twitched at Wang Yenan’s words of anticipation.

In order for the Fuhua Group to grow bigger, stronger strings were needed, and Li Zicheng thought of solving it by marrying Wang Yenan.

“It’s all foam and fabrication. He’s not some kind of Superman, and he subdues three terrorists with guns? Isn’t it funny when you think about it?”

Li Jiacheng tried to undermine Kyuha somehow.

“It was really cool to have a fight with two Americans, right?

At the words of Chun Li-Hwa, who is usually a martial arts maniac, Li Ja-cheong snorted.

“Hmph. That’s all fabrication. I think he probably paid a lot of money to those Americans? If I’m willing, I can recruit them and play. If that’s the case, I’ll do a 5:1 match.”

“Isn’t that right? Well, even professional players can’t do that. There’s no business in jeomsu.”

“But what do we do when Song Gyu-ha comes? No matter how famous an actor he is, what do we and him have to do?”

The members of the Taishan Association were basically deeply rooted in the thought of the chosen people that they were special and superior.

Therefore, no matter how famous they are, celebrities were no more and no less than eye candy.

“I heard that our old school would like to play with it? What did he say? Show me the spirit of the continent or something.”

“Huh… President Lisa Poong?”

None of the people here didn’t know what that meant.

“I think he’s been filmed a lot if the chairman said it himself?”

“That’s right. I usually don’t touch celebrities or foreigners…”

Li Jiacheng smiled bitterly.

“I don’t know. There must have been some talk from the top. Well, it’s good for me. I’ve been bored lately, but I need to relieve stress.”

“Yayaya. Do it right. When he breaks down, he gets tired. He’s a celebrity.”

At Hua Wuping’s words, Li Zicheng said confidently.

“I don’t know. Since Ji ordered it, Kkondae will take care of it.”

Just then, a tall man in a suit approached Li Zicheng and whispered something in his ear.

The corner of Li Ja-cheong’s mouth rises.

“Guys. They’re here. A Korean guy who thinks it’s Song Gyu-han or something.”

“Oh! Really? Hey. Are you finally seeing your precious face?”

“I’m looking forward to it. I was very envious of the kids who couldn’t come today.”

After a while, the two enter after being guided by the staff.

It was with Liaofan.

“Hello. Greetings after a long time.”

Liao Fan has a very polite attitude, which is the exact opposite of how he showed to Kyu-ha.

“Oh~ Liao Fan! How have you been? You seem to be feeling better since then?”

Liu Mingming looked at Liaofan’s body with a strange look.

“I raised it because it was included in the work. Well, it’s a balloon anyway. hahahahaha”

Liao Fan knew very well that the moment he was condescending or boastful in front of them, he would get tired.

“Oh! Is that Song? Hey, the real one is much better. Sit down for now.”

Chun Li-hwa guided the two to their seats.

“Shall we all share the same name?”

When Li Zicheng took the lead, each of them briefly introduced themselves.

“My name is Wang Yenan. Former Party General Secretary Zhao Ziyang is my father.”

“I’m Cheongsoo Group…”

“Nice to meet you. Huarun Group…”

Liao Fan swallowed his saliva at the powerful status with no rivals.

‘This is why I don’t want to come here. If it’s mistakenly stamped once, it’ll be buried without even a mouse or a bird knowing.’

Everyone’s eyes turned to Kyuha.

If it was an ordinary person, he would have been at least intimidated by their status, but Kyu-ha’s complexion was calm.

“I’m actor Song Kyu-ha. Nice to meet you.”

At the cool introduction of Kyuha, the members of the Taepyeonghoe stood out in the eyes.

“Wow! You speak Chinese very well? I’d believe you even say you’re Chinese.”

“That’s right. Usually Koreans have a hard time with tones, but they use it well like their mother tongue. It’s amazing.”

“I’ll get you a drink.”

Li Jiacheng was offended by the sight of Wang Yenan pouring alcohol into Kyuha’s glass, deliberately exposing her white legs with a provocative expression.

“Come on. A new person is welcome, so let’s have a drink!”

“braided!!”

“As expected, the drinks here are the most delicious.”

After a drink or two, the atmosphere eased up and the members of the Taesanhoe started asking Kyuha about various things.

“How was the Cannes Film Festival?”

“What kind of movie is this movie being shot?”

“Do you have a girlfriend?”

Everyone’s eyes focused on Liu Mingming’s question.

“There is not.”

“Oh! That’s great. Then can I introduce you? There are so many pretty girls around me.”

“It’s okay. I don’t have any plans to meet women yet.”

At that, Yang Qiankun pretended to be friendly and added a word.

“Don’t you notice? You’re a famous actor, what are you going to do if a scandal breaks out?”

“is it?”

Meanwhile, Yang Chenkun secretly whispered to Kyuha.

“Don’t do that, let’s go out with me after a while. See those guys wearing red bracelets over there? If there’s a guy you like, you can just drag him up the stairs. They’re here for work, so there’s absolutely nothing wrong with them. What do you think? Are you attracted to them?”

Wang Yenan, who noticed Yang Chenkun’s intentions, said as if scolding him.

“Hey! If you’re going to go, you go alone! Why are you trying to take Gyuha who is still?”

“Oh, no, I was just in case I was bored.”

Although Yang Chenkun was a member of the Huarun Group, it was meaningless in front of high-ranking party power in China.

No matter how chaebol they were, they were only candles in front of the wind in the face of power.

Wang Ye-nan moves to a seat next to Kyu-ha and asks questions.

Anyone could see that he was full of selfishness.

At the end, Li Ja-cheong glared at Gyu-ha as he drank sips and sips.

“Who is it? Was it a martial arts match with the brother Jaden Jacob? I really enjoyed it.”

Chun Li-hwa, a martial arts fanatic, intervened pretending to know.

“That match was a real match of the century. Gyu-ha, have you ever really learned martial arts properly? Your posture is right.”

“I learned because of the work.”

“Huh? Then you didn’t do it for long, but did you destroy Jaden Jacobs? They’re still top tier in the amateur level… and their weight class is light heavyweight.”

“You were lucky.”

“Kyuha is really amazing. He’s good at acting, he’s good at sports, and oh that’s right! Aren’t he good at music too?”

At those words, Liu Mingming clapped his hands as if he had suddenly remembered.

“Ah! That’s right. He’s also very famous for playing musical instruments. I heard he played the piano himself in the work that won the Cannes award this time?”

“Oh! You’re cool. There’s really nothing you can’t do.”

Wang Ye-nan now openly looks at Gyu-ha with her chin resting on her chin as if tempting.

His posture was quite strange and provocative.

It was then.

Li Jiacheng, her eyes widened, slammed the glass she was holding onto the floor.

Clink.

“Ah. Fuck. The atmosphere is like a fucking dog because of a guy with a stingray bangz. Really.”

The sound of the music coming out of the speakers gradually diminished, and the people who were dancing on the stage noticed and slipped back to their seats.

A suffocating tension passed.

“It’s starting again, kid.”

“Song Gyu-ha is also in trouble. Li Ja-cheong’s eyes are back properly.”

As if familiar, Hua Wuping and Yang Chenkun shook their heads and drank from their glasses.

“What are you doing after serving guests, Li Jiacheng?”

“Guests suck. They bring one with them.”

Li Ja-cheong slowly rose from her seat and sat down next to Kyu-ha.

“Hey. Cheeky Korean guy. Are you that good at fighting? Hey! That’s cool.”

Gyu-ha drank a glass of alcohol without any reaction to the smirking and provocative Li Ja-cheong.

“Then try fighting.”

“What?”

Surprised, Wang Yenan asked with round eyes.

“If you’re that good at fighting, try fighting my bodyguard. If you win, I’ll give you money.”

“What!”

The huge bodyguards who were waiting jumped forward.

When Wang Ye-nan tried to shoot at him as if he was dumbfounded.

“Something other than money.”

“What?”

“Do me a favor, not money… Liaofan said? He’ll do anything you want.”

At Kyuha’s words, the surrounding atmosphere calmed down.
