Chapter 219 The Scrooge

Cheongdam-dong, top floor of Lotte World Tower.

Han Meiyan, wearing a black silk pajamas, holding a tall red wine glass in one hand and a mobile phone in the other, stood expressionlessly in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, overlooking the night view outside the window that was as bright as the stars. However, what was flickering in her eyes was not the river of lights outside the window, but restless flames.

The phone in her hand had been hung up, and she let her hand holding the phone drop down and threw it lightly to the side.

The phone did not fall to the ground, but was caught steadily by Pei Meina who was standing next to her.

"Arrange someone to bring Eriko back," she said without turning her head, gathering a strand of hair hanging in front of her forehead.

"Okay, Sister Meiyan," Pei Meina responded, turned and walked to the coffee table in the living room. She put Han Meiyan's mobile phone on the coffee table, picked up another mobile phone that was originally on the coffee table, and dialed a number.

Han Meiyan didn't pay attention to the movement behind her. She retracted her gaze from the city night view and fell on the large glass window in front of her. She could see her own figure through the window glass, but because of the light, the figure looked a little blurry, and even the facial features could not be seen clearly.

However, Han Miyeon knew very well in her heart that the woman appearing on the window glass at this moment was her real self, her truest self.

In the past few years, she did not have a very high position in the Liu family. The position of president of Damushan Commodities was her position in the entire Damushan Group.

Perhaps in the eyes of everyone in the Liu family, she was just a clown who relied on her good looks to try her best to get into a wealthy family, and even endured her husband's abuse, family members' sarcasm, and outsiders' ridicule for this. Even at the final stage of the Liu family's inheritance dispute, her brother-in-law did not take her, the eldest sister-in-law, seriously, and only thought that she was a beggar who could be easily dismissed with a sum of money.

From the beginning to the end, she did not realize that she, Han Mi Yan, was the most hidden poisonous snake in the Liu family.

Yes, Han Mi Yan did not understand the intrigues in the business world, nor did she have the ability to compete for power with a strong brother-in-law like Liu Taihe without her husband's support. At the Liu family's dining table, she didn't even dare to breathe loudly or stretch her chopsticks further away.

However, Han Meiyan believes one thing: there is no man in this world who is not lustful!

Those men who are rude to women have simply not met a woman who makes his heart beat. As long as you understand this man's preferences, his mentality and temperament, you will always find a man who can make him obsessed.

Haha, how old is Liu Taimin? His back can hardly stand up straight, but he is still infatuated with a woman who is 40 years younger than him?

Thinking of this, Han Mi Yan's gaze slightly shifted to look at the woman standing behind her on the glass window who was talking on the phone.

In the years after her marriage to Liu Taiming, Han Meiyan spent all of her little money on finding and cultivating women. Fortunately, her efforts were obviously not in vain, and today, the harvest season has finally arrived.

"Sister Meiyan, everything has been arranged," Pei Meina, who was sitting next to the coffee table, had finished her phone call. She turned to Han Meiyan and said.

Han Miyeon nodded, turned and walked to the coffee table, first put the red wine glass in her hand on the coffee table, then bent down and sat on the sofa.

"Sister Mei Yan, what should we do next?" Pei Meina followed her to the sofa and asked.

"Behind?" Han Meiyan smiled and said, "We'll just wait and watch those men fight. Believe it or not, they're all thinking about how to get Liu Taihe's money. We don't need to do anything, just watch quietly."

Pei Meina pursed her lips and smiled, saying, "If Brother Rusong knew about this, he would hate you to death."

"Then why don't we just not let him know?" Han Meiyan shrugged and said, "Besides, why does he hate me? The money wasn't his in the first place. Everyone used their own methods, and whoever could get it would own it. Do you think that if Liu Taihe fell into their hands directly, the money would go into his pocket? Don't be silly, he won't get a penny."

Pei Meina nodded thoughtfully and said nothing more.

In the Songquandong mansion, An Rushong had no idea what was happening outside. After calling Zhao Jingsheng, he put Liu Taihe's matter aside.

In fact, An Rushong's attitude towards Liu Taihe has always been very clear. He just wants to kill this guy. As for the "black gold" in the other party's hands, he has no covetous intention at all.

The key point is, as Han Meiyan said, even if he and Zhao Jingsheng controlled Liu Taihe and emptied his "black gold warehouse", the money would not fall into his pocket. After all, Councillor Kong had been eyeing the money for a long time, so how could he and Zhao Jingsheng get their hands on it? Nothing happened that night. The next morning, An Rusong did not go to the company, but took Li Caicao to the hospital for a check-up. The check-up was regular, mainly to check the condition of the baby in the abdomen.

After two lifetimes, An Rushong only now has the hope of becoming a father, so he cares a lot about the child that Li Caicao is pregnant with, even more than he cares about the company's affairs.

After the examination, the morning was almost over. It was the weekend, so An Rusong simply bought some vegetables and cooked a hearty lunch for the three women in the family.

Just after noon, the wind started to blow without any warning, a northwest wind, and the temperature, which was not warm to begin with, suddenly dropped by several degrees.

In the study, An Rushong calculated the days. Yes, it would be the winter solstice in more than a week. It would be the ninth day of the ninth lunar month and it would be cold.

However, this winter is definitely going to be exceptionally cold. Of course, it’s not just the weather that’s cold, it’s also the damn economy.
"beep beep"

Just when An Rushong was about to go online to check the news, the cell phone on the table suddenly rang. Looking at the caller ID, it was Li Xinhou.

Putting down the mouse in his hand, An Rushong picked up the phone and pressed the answer button.

"Rushong, this is Brother Xinhou," the phone was connected and Li Xinhou's voice came out.

"I know, Brother Xinhou," An Rusong's facial muscles twitched, but he still said with a smile, "Is there anything wrong?"

"Haha, it's nothing serious," Li Xinhou said, "Today is the weekend, I booked a luxury package at 'Elysian Bains', are you interested in going to the hot springs together?"

An Rusong had heard of the hot spring resort the other party was talking about. This place was not in downtown Seoul, but in Icheon. Not only was it far from Seoul, but the price there was not cheap. How could he invite Li Xinhou, that bastard, to spend money there if he had nothing to do?
However, calculating the time, perhaps the thing that was previously asked to be done by Thomson has been done. Although he has not received the receipt or anything like that, the woman named "Youxi" should have received the money. Li Xinhou asked him to take a hot spring bath, probably for this matter.

Thinking of this, An Rusong smiled into the phone and said, "Okay, what time did you book?"

"Let's set off now," Li Xinhou said with a smile, "You tell me the location, and we'll go there together after we meet up."

An Rusong thought about it and reported a location. The meeting place he agreed to was not here in Songquandong Mansion, because he didn't want Li Xinhou to know his residence. Of course, such information may not be hidden from the other party. After all, he is a prosecutor and is still investigating a case related to him. His relevant information may have been clearly known by him.

"Okay, I'll be there in twenty minutes," Li Xinhou said happily after hearing the address he gave.

After hanging up the phone, An Rusong changed his clothes, said hello to Sun Manzhu and the others, and went out. Considering that this meeting with Li Xinhou was more private, he did not bring Luo Minzhi with him, but drove a car by himself.

Twenty minutes later, he met Li Xinhou in a nearby supermarket parking lot. The latter parked his car in the parking lot and got in An Rushong's Mercedes-Benz business car and headed straight for Lichuan.

The drive took more than an hour, and while on the way, Li Xinhou never mentioned anything about what was happening in the United States or the investigation of the case. He just chatted with his fellow An Rushong about all sorts of things.

An Rushong knew that the prosecutor was a cautious and suspicious person. The reason why he chose a hot spring hotel as the meeting place today was to prevent him from carrying any recording device. In a place like a hot spring hotel, everyone is naked and can talk without any taboos.

However, it was precisely because the other party chose such a place to discuss matters that An Rushong accepted the invitation, because he knew very well that since Li Xinhou chose such a place to discuss matters, it meant that the other party wanted to talk about serious matters.

The so-called "luxury package" that Li Xinhou booked at Elysian Bains is a small private room with two rooms, one for hot springs and one for sauna. The total area of ​​the two rooms is estimated to be less than 60 square meters. The hot spring pool in the outer room is not as spacious as the bathroom in the Songquandong mansion.

To be honest, An Rusong was nauseated to be in such a pool with Li Xinhou. So, he changed into a bathrobe and sat at the small booth outside to talk with Li Xinhou, saying that he would never go into the pool.

"Brother Xinhou," An Rusong lit a cigarette for himself next to the booth. He looked at Li Xinhou who had just entered the pool and shook his head, saying, "Is this what you call a 'luxury package'? The hourly rooms in love hotels seem to have better conditions than here, right?"

Li Xinhou didn't mind his ridicule at all. He soaked in the pool, sighed comfortably, and said, "Rusong, don't mind it. After all, our real purpose is not to soak in the hot springs. There is no need to spend money on these insignificant things, right?"
