Peninsula: The young master is poor and doesn't want to date.

Chapter 42 Little Liu Zhimin

Is it worth it?

Lee Woo-bin suddenly asked.

"What?"

"Is it worth going to such lengths to mess with the older brother?"

Li Zhengyi did not answer immediately.

He gazed into the distance for a long time.

"Second Brother."

"Um?"

"Do you know what the last thing I saw was the day I was kicked out of my home two years ago?"

"What?"

"The back of my father."

Li Zheng smiled, but his smile was somewhat bitter.

"After he hit me, he turned around and didn't look back. My older sister was watching from the side, looking at me like I was trash. You...you're laughing at me."

"I was lying on the ground, covered in blood, with only one thought in my mind."

"What are you thinking?"

"I want to come back."

"I'm not back to beg for their forgiveness, nor am I back to beg for food."

"It's about coming back and taking back what's rightfully mine."

"Return what is owed."

The train descended from the ground to the underground with a rumbling sound, and suddenly it was pitch black outside the window.

Lee Woo-bin suddenly felt that his younger brother seemed to have become a different person.

No, it hasn't changed.

It has always been like this.

He just hadn't seen it clearly before.

"Okay, I believe you."

"but……"

He paused.

Where did I stay during the time I faked my death?

Li Zhengyi said.

"I have a friend named Ding Wulang. He used to work in intelligence for the National Intelligence Service, but now he's a detective and I hire him. The conditions are a bit poor; there's no air conditioning, the soundproofing is bad, and the girl next door can open the door to heaven with one kick."

"..."

"But it's safe."

Lee Woo-bin sighed.

"Fine, it's better than sleeping under a bridge."

"Oh, right."

Li Zheng called out to him.

"When you get to Ding Goro's place, don't act like a young master. That uncle likes to drink and has a bad temper. His daughter's temper is even worse. If you dare to yell, she will really dare to beat you."

"knew……"

"Also, don't use any SIM cards, don't go out unnecessarily, and don't touch any of your online accounts. Don't contact anyone. Especially your cronies. You know how they operate at home; only a 100% disappearance can fake your death."

"..."

Li Zheng looked at him intently.

"Finally, remember this: from this moment on, you are a 'dead man.' Unless I bring you back to life, you will remain 'dead.'"

Lee Woo-bin nodded.

"Zhengyi".

"Um?"

"Thanks."

"What are you thanking me for?"

"Thank you... for not actually killing me."

Li Zheng was taken aback for a moment, then smiled.

"Get lost, you're not cut out for sentimentality, or I'll beat you up."

Lee Woo-bin smiled too.

The train arrived at the station, and a girl boarded.

He looked about fifteen or sixteen years old and kept his head down playing on his phone.

"Give me the suit."

"what?"

"I need to borrow the girl's phone to make a call."

"Huh? You think girls in Seoul are as innocent as country bumpkins? Look at you, messy hair, dirty clothes, and barefoot."

Don't believe me?

"I don't believe it."

Lee Jung-il snatched Lee Woo-bin's suit jacket.

"Watch carefully and learn well."

He put on his suit jacket, covered the convenience store clerk's clothes, and then walked over and started chatting her up.

"Hello, I'm a foreigner. My luggage was stolen, and even my shoes were stolen. Could I borrow your phone to make a call?"

The girl was initially wary, looking him up and down before cautiously taking out her phone.

Then, Li Zhengyi took the girl's phone and made a call to Ding Wulang.

To maintain his persona as a foreigner, he spoke entirely in English.

Moreover, the girl next to her doesn't look like the type who's good at studying; she looks more like an idol trainee, and her English is probably just average.

If you speak fast enough, you definitely won't understand.

The matter was arranged in a few words.

Ding Wulang will pick them up at Daogu Station on Line 3.

After they finished talking, he handed the phone back to the girl with both hands.

"Thank you, the kindest girl in the world. May I ask your name? I will definitely thank you in the future."

"Yoo... Yoo Jimin..."

"Thank you, Zhimin. You are the most beautiful girl in the world in my eyes because of your heart."

Li Zhengyi still spoke these two sentences in English, but at a slower pace and with simpler words.

Liu Zhimin understood and showed an obvious embarrassed expression.

Just then, Li Zhengyi's stomach started growling.

I had some rice with very little meat for lunch, and it's been almost nine hours since I last ate anything.

This makes them look even more pitiful.

After thinking for a moment, Yoo Ji-min took out her wallet and pulled out 1 won in cash.

Li Zhengyi was genuinely surprised.

It wasn't acted.

He pointed his finger at himself.

Liu Zhimin nodded firmly.

"I'm sorry, it's because of thieves in our country. Most people on the peninsula are very friendly to tourists."

Lee Jung-il accepted the 10,000 won note, a green one bearing the inscription of King Sejong, which was worth approximately 65 RMB at the time.

Having a meal is definitely not a problem.

"Thank you. My name is Chris, Chris Han."

"Hi Chris, I also have an English name, Karina."

"Oh, Karina, what a beautiful name. Could you tell me your contact information? Don't misunderstand, I'll return the money to you after I find my bank card."

Liu Zhimin quickly waved her hand.

"No need, no need to pay it back."

Li Zhengyi would never agree; he hadn't even gotten their contact information yet, so it wasn't a successful attempt at striking up a conversation.

He has always been a person who sees things through to the end.

Then he saw a cross necklace around Yoo Ji-min's neck and wondered if the family might be Christian.

There are many Christians on the peninsula.

So he immediately said it.

"No, if I don't pay back the money, God will not forgive me, and my sins will never be cleansed."

When he brought up God, Liu Zhimin immediately became serious.

"Oh, I'm sorry. Um, I..."

She rummaged in her bag and found a small notebook.

Then she wrote down a string of numbers.

"This is my Kakao and Twitter account. When you add me, please mention 'Chris on the Subway' in your message, and I'll know it's you."

Successfully obtained.

"Thank you, God will bless you."

After the conversation ended, Li Zhengyi didn't linger for even a second, moved his seat, and returned to Li Yubin's side.

Where Liu Zhimin couldn't see, he waved the note.

Lee Woo-bin reached out to grab it, but it was dodged.

"You even lied to a young girl; that girl must be a minor."

Lee Woo-bin lowered his voice.

Li Zhengyi shrugged.

"It's just making friends, don't have such disgusting thoughts. My girlfriend is the most beautiful woman on the peninsula right now. Will this girl be as beautiful as Irene when she grows up?"

Li Yubin snorted coldly.

"Irene isn't yours; you're just having a fake relationship."

Li Zhengyi enjoyed seeing his second brother break down, but he couldn't do anything about it.

That's more like a human being.

"Sigh, look at you, so impatient again. I just gave you a live demonstration, and you didn't pay attention. No wonder you can't do anything but throw money around."

"you……"

"What do you mean, 'you'? If you're so capable, go and get that girl's contact information yourself, but don't use your identity or money."

"I have no interest in minors."

"Look at you, your thoughts are disgusting again. Is there no such thing as pure friendship between men and women?"

"Hmph~"

Lee Woo-bin chose to ignore Lee Jung-il.

Li Zhengyi stopped teasing him.

As the train entered the city, more and more people boarded the carriages, making it inconvenient to whisper secrets.

He started thinking.

I miss my older brother.

I want a funeral.

Thinking about that plan.

Actually, there was something he hadn't told Lee Woo-bin.

This plan wasn't just to embarrass the eldest brother.

It was also to verify something.

Two years ago that night, the person who handed him the wine, the person who helped him upstairs, the person who called his stepmother...

Is he really the eldest brother?

If the older brother really took the bait and went to search Li Yubin's house, it means he has something to hide.

That means Lee Woo-bin wasn't lying to him.

If my older brother didn't go.

That might not be because Lee Woo-bin lied to him, but simply because of the food.

Because Lee Woo-bin is an idiot.

Therefore, you must carefully verify the authenticity of information provided by idiots.

Because of one sentence from Li Yubin, he got all fired up like a hothead, shouting for revenge, and then went to find his boss and started a fight.

That's truly stupid.

What if we get used as pawns?
