The Wealthy Tycoon's Game of Life

Chapter 1615: Chapter 650: Animal Kingdom

”Oh, it’s you, I have some impression.”

Charles looked at Jiang Huai, as if recalling something, revealing a look of realization.

The ”Mr. Li” mentioned by Jiang Huai referred to Li Zhihao, the eldest son of the fourth generation of the Lee Family, who is now serving as a representative director in one of the subsidiary companies, and whose public identity is extremely low-profile. But only close advisors like Jiang Huai know that the other party is gradually inheriting the Lee Family’s power step by step.

Equivalent to the designated next family head.

Seeing that Charles recognized him, feeling the frequent pleading looks from the anxious Park Jeongyun beside him, although he felt like a small fry in the presence of Charles, who could associate with Li Zhihao as an equal, Jiang Huai, having already received substantial benefits from the other party, had no choice but to brace himself and speak:

”Mr. Charles, allow me to introduce you, this is Park Jeongyun from Park Group; not only is he a shareholder of YG Entertainment, but also...”

Park Jeongyun immediately realized that Jiang Huai was using this as an opportunity to ease the atmosphere.

Charles clearly had a terrifying background; regardless of his intentions in helping Zhou Wang, as long as the current stalemate was broken, there was room for maneuver. According to Park Jeongyun’s experience, if he offered a significant enough price, he might even turn a bad situation into a good one, and perhaps even turn Charles into his ”friend”...

So Park Jeongyun quickly stepped forward, putting on what he considered his most dazzling and appropriate smile, and respectfully extended both hands toward Charles.

However, Charles interrupted Jiang Huai before he finished speaking, glancing at Park Jeongyun’s extended hands, he indifferently withdrew his gaze.

”Sorry, I don’t have the habit of shaking hands with dead people.”

Park Jeongyun instantly froze in place.

Jiang Huai was also somewhat at a loss, still wanting to say something more, when Charles suddenly chuckled, leaned in to Jiang Huai’s ear, and whispered something unknown.

Jiang Huai’s face changed drastically in an instant, he looked at Zhou Wang in horror, and beads of sweat broke out on his forehead.

This made Zhou Wang frown slightly, but looking at Charles’s mischievous expression, he was too lazy to ask more.

...

The long history of humanity is a history of evolutionary civilization.

We have established rules, learned etiquette, divided classes, and become so-called ”higher animals,” but certain essences have actually never changed.

For instance, the ”male reproductive gene” etched in our bones that Zhou Wang deeply understands, and the ”survival of the fittest” now felt by Park Jeongyun.

Generally, in such events, he is the ”fittest” one.

But in this moment, Park Jeongyun feels himself becoming part of the weaker crowd, a ridiculously unprecedented experience leaving him at a loss.

Charles’s words, seemingly not a joke, left Park Jeongyun somewhat bewildered.

And soon he became somewhat resentful.

Even though he underestimated Zhou Wang, not expecting him to invite Charles, who has ties with the Lee Family, for assistance, still, does Park Jeongyun truly deserve to be considered a minor pawn?

By this point, Charles and Zhou Wang have already walked off together, seeming to completely disregard him, as Park Jeongyun, having been repeatedly humiliated, finally showed anger on his face, his gaze flickering, just as he was about to speak, several figures approached him.

Precisely the group brought by Charles: Chief Prosecutor Lin, Vice Minister Wu, Vice Minister Zheng, and others.

”You guys...”

Park Jeongyun suddenly sensed something ominous.

For the first time, Chief Prosecutor Lin looked at him directly, still wearing a stoic poker face, speaking in a stern and calm tone:

”Mr. Park Jeongyun, we’ve received reports that you are suspected of bribing public officials, manipulating stock transactions, tax evasion, illegal operations, forced transactions, among multiple charges. Please come with me to the Seoul Prosecution Office for investigation.”

As Chief Prosecutor Lin signaled with his eyes, several prosecutors, dressed in black suits and wearing badges, emerged from the crowd behind, staring at him menacingly.

Park Jeongyun paused for a moment, then became both shocked and angry.

He initially thought Chief Prosecutor Lin and others were just there to intimidate and deter him, only now realizing their intentions far exceeded that.

They actually intend to ruin him!

Unable to understand, Park Jeongyun finally lost his composure, loudly shouting, ”Chief Prosecutor Lin, are you joking with me? You’re going to arrest me? Look closely, I’m Park Jeongyun; my older brother is Park Jung-tae, my father is Park...”

”I know who you are.”

Chief Prosecutor Lin remained expressionless.

”Then how dare you... I need to call my lawyer, no, I need to call my father, you are all insane, just wait to be dismissed!”

Park Jeongyun’s face showed a trace of ferocity, grabbing his phone intending to make a call, while Chief Prosecutor Lin and the rest didn’t stop him.

But soon, Park Jeongyun’s face turned ashen, despair hidden deep within his eyes.

He distinctly remembered that shortly before the banquet began, he had just spoken to his elder brother, who is Park Woo-bin’s father and the next successor of Park Group, and had even planned to go to a hot spring later. But now... the phone couldn’t get through!

Not only his older brother, his father, his third sister, all influential family members had collectively gone missing, even making Park Jeongyun suspect if there was an issue with his phone.

Unwilling to believe a certain possibility, though the remnants of his sanity told him it was likely reality.

Once, a cousin of his, having accidentally provoked someone whose name Park Jeongyun still doesn’t know, was also abandoned silently and mercilessly by all family members who reached a consensus...
