: A filial daughter is born under the stick

As Lee Se-hyun was leaving, Kim Minjeong gave him a concert ticket, reminding him that the performance that day was very important and she hoped he could attend.

“A concert?” After dropping off the slightly tipsy Secretary Wang, Lee Se-hyun looked at the concert ticket in his hand and fell into deep thought.

“Aespa?” He wondered how Ryu Jimin was doing lately.

Since their last encounter, they had rarely been in contact and had almost never met.

The scene shifts to Kim Minjeong's side.

Ding Qing and Li Zicheng were directing their subordinates to clean up the mess.

It was clearly a gang fight between two sides, but only Li Zhongjiu and his men were arrested by the authorities.

Ding Qing truly lamented, “Mixing in the underworld is ultimately not a long-term solution; the government can arrest you whenever it wants, and you don’t even have a chance to resist.”

Ding Qing’s mindset began to change; from being someone who only knew how to fight and kill, he gradually started to think more strategically.

He decided that from now on, he would go legitimate! He would start by becoming a philanthropic entrepreneur!

Then, he would rely on his influence to become a local magnate, and finally, a member of parliament.

“This is the correct path!”

Li Zicheng, standing nearby, subtly probed Kim Kunam, “Jiunan, you’re quite something, knowing such important figures.”

“A Chief Prosecutor’s Secretary and a Chief Prosecutor coming to support you.”

“If I’m not mistaken, Police Chief Cao also has a good relationship with you, doesn’t he?”

A Chief Prosecutor’s Secretary, a Chief Prosecutor, plus a Police Chief.

“Damn it, in Gangnam District of The Peninsula, wouldn’t Kim Kunam be able to walk sideways?”

“Why would he join Jinmen Group as a subordinate?”

This made Li Zicheng somewhat suspicious, especially given the Police Station background, which was very sensitive.

Li Zicheng couldn’t help but suspect that Kim Kunam might also be an undercover agent? An undercover agent sent by the Police Station into Jinmen Group.

“No, that shouldn’t be!”

If Kim Kunam were an undercover agent, why would he expose his network of connections today?

Getting involved with the Prosecutor’s Office and the Police Station, wouldn’t he be afraid of being exposed?

“This is very abnormal!”

Ding Qing, standing nearby, was also very curious, “Good brother, you have these connections, why didn’t you say so earlier?”

“Prosecutor Li helped me a lot before,” Kim Kunam said truthfully, “Originally, I was just an illegal immigrant.”

“By a twist of fate, I met Prosecutor Li, and then Police Chief Cao…”

Kim Kunam didn’t say much, leaving it at that.

Ding Qing also didn’t want to force his fellow countryman to give an explanation or anything.

As long as he didn't harm or betray his brothers, everything else was fine, no matter if he was an undercover agent or an outsider.

“This is what he cared about!”

“Uncle Ding Qing, can you and the others come to my concert that day?” Kim Minjeong asked.

Kim Minjeong pulled out several concert tickets; as an Idol artist invited by the organizers, she naturally had some small privileges.

For example, she had several free tickets.

Kim Minjeong didn’t know how to thank Lee Se-hyun and the others, so she could only offer what little she had.

She promoted it to Ding Qing and the others.

“Axi!” Ding Qing’s eyes lit up as he took the tickets, praising, “My big niece is not only cute and beautiful.”

“She’s also multi-talented, a star singer.”

“Go! Absolutely!”

“Not only will your Uncle Ding Qing go, but I’ll also call a bunch of other uncles to cheer you on.”

“Hehe,” Kim Minjeong giggled.

“Thank you, Uncle ~”

Kim Minjeong gave all the tickets in her hand to Ding Qing, while Li Zicheng on the side felt a headache coming on.

Li Zicheng wondered, “What scheme is this Ding Qing up to now?”

However, out of consideration for Kim Minjeong’s cuteness, he still accepted the concert tickets.

“Uncle Zicheng will also come, right?” Kim Minjeong asked expectantly.

Li Zicheng wasn’t very interested in these things, but he still nodded, not completely refusing, “If I’m free that day, I’ll go.”

“Yay yay!” Kim Minjeong jumped up excitedly.

“Yay yay yay,” Ding Qing was charmed by this scene and imitated Kim Minjeong’s actions, shouting.

Kim Kunam looked at Kim Minjeong with relief; as long as his daughter was happy, it was more important than anything!

The group’s darling, Kim Minjeong, successfully gave out all her tickets; it remains to be seen whether these people will actually go.

But looking at the identities of these people, each one is more intimidating than the last!

Ding Qing! The fourth in command of Jinmen Group, boss of the Northern University Gang! A veteran of a company group with a market value of hundreds of millions.

Jinmen Group is not an ordinary company; it employs many thugs and enforcers.

Then there’s Li Zicheng, the Police Station’s undercover agent, the left protector of Jinmen Group.

Kim Kunam, the right protector of Jinmen Group.

Even Secretary Wang was given a concert ticket.

And then there’s the heavyweight, Lee Se-hyun!

The Chief Prosecutor of the Criminal Division One of the Capital City Eastern Prosecutor’s Office!

This little Kim Minjeong is quite adept at networking, having connections with both the underworld and legitimate figures.

It can be said that once her social connections are known,

Kim Minjeong wouldn’t have to worry about anything in the entertainment industry, would she?

The little princess of the entertainment industry, who would dare to provoke her?

She has Ding Qing and her father from the underworld, and Lee Se-hyun and Cao Wenxi from the legitimate side.

“Simply invincible!”

…It was very late when Lee Se-hyun returned home; as soon as he entered, he saw Park Yeonjin sitting on the sofa.

“Oh, wow.” Lee Se-hyun turned on the light and was startled, “What are you doing sitting there? Not even turning on the lights, trying to scare people by playing a ghost?”

Park Yeonjin mumbled, “Why didn’t you reply to the Instagram message I sent you this afternoon?”

“Why didn’t you reply? Didn’t you see it?”

“Or did you see it and deliberately not reply?”

Park Yeonjin was really annoyed!

Facing Park Yeonjin’s questions, Lee Se-hyun looked at his phone and found that there were indeed a few unread messages on Instagram.

Chat history:

Park Yeonjin: “Are you there?” (4:59 PM)

Park Yeonjin: “Are you coming home for dinner today?”

Park Yeonjin: “Are you there?” (6:05 PM)

Park Yeonjin: “I bought…”

Park Yeonjin: “Ah shi ba! Are you dead? Can’t you speak?” (7:45 PM)

Lee Se-hyun stared at the chat history on the screen, 5 unread messages; no wonder Park Yeonjin was so angry.

Anyone would be annoyed; among the three great sins of life, not replying to messages ranks first.

Lee Se-hyun prevaricated, “Oh, I had a case to investigate today, so I worked overtime and didn’t see the messages on my phone.”

“I’m sorry.”

“Sorry?” Park Yeonjin curled her lips, laughing disdainfully.

Could a mere apology solve everything?!!!

Park Yeonjin was clearly too deeply immersed, imagining herself as Lee Se-hyun’s wife.

Determined to be a good wife and loving mother, she had specially bought many ingredients today, preparing to make a delicious meal.

However, she failed before even starting; without a reply from Lee Se-hyun, she got angry and simply stopped cooking.

Park Yeonjin picked up a plastic bag filled with groceries from the supermarket and threw it directly into the trash can.

She turned and went back to her room without looking back.

Lee Se-hyun was dumbfounded, “What kind of strange behavior is this?”

Park Yeonjin sat like a ghost on the sofa in the living room, waiting for Lee Se-hyun to return, and finally threw the purchased ingredients into the trash can.

Was it a protest? But it didn’t seem like it; what kind of protest would be like this? This behavior seemed more like pouting and jealousy.

Lee Se-hyun shook his head, “This crazy woman is indeed crazy; if I didn't reply to her message, why didn't she call?”

Who would constantly guard their phone all day, endlessly refreshing social media, just to see if someone sent them a message?

Park Yeonjin is very stubborn!

Lee Se-hyun picked up the plastic bag from the trash can; it was full of various ingredients.

There was beef, chicken, broccoli, tomatoes, and other vegetables… the ingredients were very rich and nutritious.

Lee Se-hyun cursed under his breath, “What a spendthrift woman, does money grow on trees?!”

“Meat is very expensive in The Peninsula!”

“And wasting food is also shameful! We can’t encourage this bad habit!”

After cleaning up, Lee Se-hyun looked at the refrigerator and skillfully took out a few bags of instant noodles that hadn’t been finished last time.

He wasn’t hungry; he had eaten his fill of barbecue at Kim Kunam’s barbecue restaurant earlier.

Lee Se-hyun estimated that Park Yeonjin had probably waited all night and hadn’t eaten anything, so her stomach was likely empty.

While boiling water, Lee Se-hyun also added an egg, sighing, “Alas, who made me a good man from Xia Country?”

“A good man doesn’t fight with women! This is wisdom passed down by our ancestors!”

Moreover, Park Yeonjin was originally happily preparing a grand meal to treat Lee Se-hyun.

However, a small misunderstanding occurred, leading to this situation.

Lee Se-hyun carried the ready-made noodles and knocked on Park Yeonjin’s room door.

“Bang bang!”

“Yeonjin, I’ve made you some noodles! Do you want to eat?”
