Chapter 1561: Chapter 1561 - 623: Resolve and Lodging (Part 2)
"They say you earned money through some improper means in Huaxia..."
Mrs. Cui whispered with some embarrassment, though she was being vague, Cui Min’er naturally understood the unspoken two words her mother didn’t utter.
At this moment, Cui Min’er finally realized where the problem lay, even when she hadn’t revealed anything herself.
She could certainly predict that Li Lina and Song Zhesuo, who left Hong Kong Island in a mess, would surely spread rumors upon returning home, but she hadn’t expected it to reach the point where even her parents heard about it.
Clearly, unable to deal with Zhou Wang, Li Lina vented all her grievances on her.
Immediately, Cui Min’er angrily explained, "She’s my high school classmate. I ran into her while traveling in Hong Kong Island, and at the time she had some misunderstandings and verbal conflicts with my friends..."
Cui Min’er’s parents listened to her explanation, visibly distracted, and after she finished, Cui Juncai patted his chest and said:
"I always said my daughter isn’t that kind of person. Min’er, don’t worry, Daddy will definitely explain it clearly for you..."
"Dad, you misunderstood my meaning."
At this point, Cui Min’er took a deep breath and said, "Although the facts aren’t the way Li Lina described, I really can’t continue to be with Park Yubin."
"What did you say?"
Cui Juncai was clearly stunned, his hand still didn’t dial the phone.
"I’ve... met someone I truly love, and I will no longer have any ties with Park Yubin."
Facing her parents’ shocked gaze, feeling quite embarrassed, but having rehearsed it several times in her heart, Cui Min’er resolutely said.
"Did you really in Huaxia..."
While Cui Juncai was still dumbfounded, Mrs. Cui’s expression changed.
"My current boyfriend is indeed a Huaxia person. He’s a very outstanding man. Dad, Mom, trust me, if you interact with him, you’ll certainly..."
"Min’er, how can you say such a thing!"
Color changed dramatically, Cui Juncai interrupted Cui Min’er, urgently saying, "You are Young Master Yubin’s fiancée and have held an engagement banquet witnessed by us, and last time Young Master Yubin said that he would hold the wedding immediately after you graduate..."
"None of that has anything to do with me anymore."
After speaking it out, Cui Min’er’s tone became much smoother.
"You..."
"Min’er, don’t make a fuss, do you know how worried your dad and I have been about you during this time?"
While Cui Juncai’s face was gloomy, Mrs. Cui hurriedly grabbed her daughter, trying to soften her tone, "It’s normal for young people to have conflicts while dating, but you shouldn’t act impulsively. Quickly apologize to your dad, and then explain properly with Young Master Yubin. Don’t worry, Mom and Dad are definitely on your side..."
"It’s too late."
Having anticipated this situation in advance, Cui Min’er said calmly, "Just before you came back, I took Grandma to the bank with me and transferred a sum of money to Park Yubin."
"What... what money?"
Mrs. Cui asked dumbly.
"I returned all the money Park Yubin spent on me, including the red envelopes received at the engagement banquet. I transferred him a total of 120 million Korean Won."
Cui Min’er paused and then continued, "Furthermore, I’ve already left a message on Kakaotalk for him, and clarified the breakup."
Understanding her parents’ potential reaction, Cui Min’er made a decision she believed to be wise.
By making the breakup a fait accompli before her parents returned, they could only accept it, no matter how unwilling they were.
Fortunately, only her beloved grandma was at home at the time, or it could be said that only the grandma who looked lightly upon material things chose to trust her when she asked her not to make the phone call.
Cui Min’er’s parents were indeed stunned after hearing what she said, Cui Juncai wasn’t sure what he was thinking, his expression changed unpredictably, while Mrs. Cui, more sensitive to numbers, quickly realized something was wrong.
"Min’er, you said you transferred Young Master Yubin 120 million Korean Won, where did you get so much money?"
million Korean Won is about 600-700 thousand RMB, a large sum even for a middle-class family in Korea, which is why Mrs. Cui was so shocked.
"Of course, my boyfriend gave it to me."
At this moment, Cui Min’er’s expression finally recovered a trace of usual pride, she said confidently, "His name is Zhou Wang, even though he’s a Huaxia person, he’s richer and more outstanding than you imagine!"
Cui Juncai opened his mouth, seemingly at a loss for words, turned around and sat on the floor, took out a well-protected pack of cigarettes from his pocket, lit one and started smoking.
Cui Min’er didn’t remember when Cui Juncai started smoking, before she could say anything, Mrs. Cui pulled Cui Min’er into the bedroom beside.
"Min’er, you can’t blame your dad... the factory recently stopped work due to some reasons, your dad hasn’t been to work for almost a month, his mood is also very bad, and my cleaning job can’t be done anymore, during this time your dad has been helping me with the street stall..."
"Is it because of my conflict with Park Yubin?"
Having heard from her grandmother, Cui Min’er frowned and asked.
"It’s not entirely because of that reason. Young Master Yubin is a really good person, it’s because the factory is indeed about to go bankrupt, but there are so many enterprises in the group. If you and Young Master Yubin can reconcile, he can be transferred to another position..."
"Mom, you don’t need to persuade me anymore."
Cui Min’er held her mother’s hand instead, patiently saying, "Being with Zhou Wang oppa, he will certainly provide you with a better life, you don’t need to worry about this at all..."
To prove her words, Cui Min’er took out a bank card from her close pocket.
"Mom, this card has more than 400 million Korean Won, all given by Zhou Wang oppa. Even if you’re temporarily unemployed, I can fully support you."
"How much money?"
Mrs. Cui was shocked, she hurriedly asked.
...
In the Shilla Suite at Seoul Shilla Hotel.
Zhou Wang stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, overlooking Seoul’s unique night scene.
A rain had fallen in the evening when he drove over from YG Entertainment, canceling his original plan to invite Xu Wenqian and Qu Peining for a walk, but there had been really too much fun lately, so spending a quiet night like this was also good.
The Shilla Hotel is the best hotel in Seoul, perhaps the best in Korea, the only one that can barely compare with it should be the Four Seasons Hotel Seoul.
But only in terms of star rating and specifications.
There’s enough to create a substantive gap between Shilla Hotel and Four Seasons Hotel...Shilla Hotel is under Samsung Group, its leader is that extremely famous group princess, well, perhaps regarded as half princess of Korea.
Of course, the hotel was arranged by YG Entertainment, they could have chosen Four Seasons Hotel, but since they were here, it was natural to experience the local characteristics, the Four Seasons Hotel is all over the world and doesn’t invoke that kind of urge to explore.
As the preferred lodging for many important guests, including the famous double Song wedding held here, Shilla Hotel undoubtedly piqued Zhou Wang’s interest.
Though he felt a bit disappointed upon arrival, despite the nearly flawless service details, all hotel supplies were first-class luxury...but in Zhou Wang’s increasingly discerning eyes, it equated to "ordinary," apart from the traditional tea house downstairs, everything else was modernized decor without any highlights.
As for the affiliated Michelin three-star restaurant, it had no attraction for Zhou Wang.
Only the night scene before him managed to hold his interest.
Zhou Wang stood watching the night scene for a while when a knock sounded, then Xu Wenqian entered, an evident trace of admiration still lingering on her face.
"Boss, President Jin really came to visit you alone... How did you predict that?"
Half an hour ago, as soon as Zhou Wang entered the hotel’s best Shilla Suite, he asked Xu Wenqian to set up the suite’s tea room, saying it would definitely be needed later, which was now proven true.
"Stop flattering me, if I can think of it, you’ve been experienced in the group for so long, you won’t see through it?"
Zhou Wang smacked Xu Wenqian’s pert butt.
Xu Wenqian’s cheeks reddened, she could only mutter and turn, "Then, then I’ll go make tea..."
Was it really staged?
Upon confirmation, Zhou Wang’s mouth twitched, the hint of satisfaction that fleetingly arose in his heart instantly vanished.
