The brilliant night view outside the window reflected the somewhat miserable Cui Wenhan in the room. He truly couldn't understand how this man in front of him had managed to bypass his security and enter his room.
Kim Min-jeong had long since shed all sense of shame, because the man in front of her allowed her to enjoy the thrill of revenge. What did it matter if he saw her naked?
After all, she hadn't lost a piece of flesh.
The whip was still clutched tightly in her hand, as if ready to lash out at any moment to vent her inner discontent.
"By the way, I heard you put a bounty on my head across all of Seoul?" Zhang Jie said this as if he didn't care at all.
"I'll terminate the mission immediately!" Cui Wenhan quickly interjected, while secretly cursing those assassins for being utterly useless, allowing someone to come here to bother him completely unharmed.
"I have to say, those assassins did cause me quite a bit of trouble and some injuries, but I also took down over thirty of them." Zhang Jie showed a wound on his abdomen. Although it was already bandaged, there was still blood.
After all, he was human; there was no way to avoid getting hurt.
Cui Wenhan watched, his heart seething with rage, gritting his teeth, wondering why they hadn't managed to kill him.
But on the surface, he dared not show it, so he could only cheerfully take out his phone and cancel the mission.
In an instant, assassins across Korea who had received the mission were notified of its cancellation. Immediately, everyone cursed loudly, calling the damned employer untrustworthy.
However, since assassin information was anonymous, no one knew who was responsible.
Zhang Jie also took out his phone, opened the assassin app, and took a look. The assassin bounty in the Seoul area had indeed been canceled, but only one. The one concerning the Triads was still active.
A cold glint flashed in Zhang Jie's eyes.
"Since the commission is complete, and the pursuit of you has also been canceled, shouldn't my emotional distress and medical expenses be compensated?"
Zhang Jie posed a new question, which made Cui Wenhan pause.
Hmph, I thought you wanted something else. In the end, it's all about money!
"How about this, I won't rip you off. Emotional distress, travel reimbursement, plus medical expenses, just transfer me 500,000 usd." Zhang Jie casually estimated.
"Oh, and I want cash." Zhang Jie added, as if remembering something. Only cash was the safest; all forms of transfer could potentially be traced.
"No problem, no problem, I'll arrange it immediately." Cui Wenhan found it very strange. He had sent out an SOS distress signal so long ago, why was there no response at all?
A vague sense of unease crept into his heart.
Then, he made a phone call, "Immediately prepare 500,000 usd for me, immediately, and send it to my room!"
He emphasized the words "my room" with a heavy tone.
The person on the other end hung up after answering the call.
Subsequently, the suite door made a 'ding' sound, and the door opened, and a person walked in.
The room door was not closed, so when that person walked in, Cui Wenhan could see him directly from his angle.
What's going on?
How could it be so fast!
When he saw Park Zhixun, he was still a bit stunned, but then he reacted. Wasn't it better to have money quickly?
At this moment, he didn't have time to wonder more.
However, when he saw Park Zhixun enter empty-handed, he immediately became furious, "What's going on? Didn't I tell you to prepare 500,000 usd in cash? Why did you come empty-handed?"
Park Zhixun swiped a few times on the tablet in his hand, then bowed to Cui Wenhan and said, "The 500,000 usd, I've already arranged for someone to prepare it, it will be delivered shortly."
His tone was calm, but there seemed to be a burning anger in his eyes.
Then, he came and sat down beside Zhang Jie.
Only then did Cui Wenhan realize something was wrong.
"It's you!!!"
Facing Cui Wenhan's anger, Park Zhixun merely nodded and said indifferently, "Yes, it's me."
Then, his gaze fell on Kim Min-jeong, who was standing behind Cui Wenhan.
"Do you know how Mr. Zhang broke through layers of defense to reach the top floor? Do you know how Mr. Zhang knew you were here?"
Park Zhixun just looked at Cui Wenhan, who was kneeling on the ground, his tone completely unperturbed.
But Cui Wenhan had fully realized by now: Park Zhixun had sold him out, that damned internal traitor!
"I was the one who gave you status and position, putting you above everyone else. I gave you money, I paid for your college education, and now you dare to betray me!"
Cui Wenhan was furious. He hadn't expected that the assistant who had been by his side for so many years was actually an ungrateful wretch.
"Betrayal? I don't think so. You did give me status and position, but you never treated me as a human being."
Park Zhixun put down the tablet in his hand, stood up, and slowly walked towards Kim Min-jeong behind him, speaking as he went, "I originally thought working by your side might be a good choice, but your biggest mistake was harming my childhood sweetheart."
Cui Wenhan was stunned.
What childhood sweetheart? I didn't know anything about that?
Then, Park Zhixun walked to Kim Min-jeong's side, gently caressing her face, and tears welled up in Kim Min-jeong's eyes.
Park Zhixun took off his jacket and draped it over Kim Min-jeong.
"Min-jeong and I have been childhood sweethearts since we were little. I originally thought you sponsored her education to have her work for you later. You made her a popular female celebrity, and I was happy for her. But your biggest mistake, your gravest error, was setting your sights on her!"
As he spoke, Park Zhixun turned around and delivered a fierce punch to Cui Wenhan's face, "And you insulted her right in front of me! Shibai!"
Only then did Cui Wenhan understand why Park Zhixun would betray him, "So it was for a woman?"
Cui Wenhan suddenly burst into laughter, "Just a woman, and you've brought me to this state. You truly have no foresight. If you had stayed with me, you would have gained better resources and better development prospects than you have now. For just a woman, you've thrown all of that away!"
However, Cui Wenhan's words did not move Park Zhixun in the slightest; instead, he gave him another kick.
"A scumbag like you will never understand the feelings between us!"
Then, Park Zhixun picked up the chip and USB drive that Zhang Jie had thrown on the ground.
"This contains all your dirty secrets and illegal evidence. I will release it to the media and completely ruin your reputation."
Hearing Park Zhixun's words, Cui Wenhan was immediately terrified.
He immediately lunged forward to snatch the USB drive and chip, but Park Zhixun swayed, avoiding him, causing him to fall heavily onto the floor.
"It might be too late to be scared now, but don't worry, I won't let you die so easily. I will make it look like you committed suicide out of guilt."
At this moment, Park Zhixun's eyes were filled with anger and hatred, but he still kept his thoughts in order, remaining exceptionally calm.
"As for Mr. Zhang, I will give you an additional 500,000 usd as a commission."
Then, Park Zhixun looked at Zhang Jie.
"I have no objection, but I want cash."
Zhang Jie smiled. Park Zhixun was a very sensible person.
