The Crazy Villain Regains His Sanity

Chapter 374

Episode 374

Shinsung Group is the No. 1 business group in Korea.

Naturally, market capitalization is ranked first here. However, if you go deeper, the reason why it is truly ranked first is because of the influence Shinsung Group has.

The company with the most cash in Korea has numerous subsidiaries, and although its affiliates are separated, the large corporations that dominate Korea are intertwined with its connections.

In addition, as a member of the Shinsung Group, he had advanced into the political world as well as a high-ranking official, and his influence extended to every corner, making the name Holy Republic not feel weak.

Chairman Lee Young-moon, who led this huge group, was called a giant of his time.

Although he was originally ranked first in the business world, he not only took control of the group and improved its constitution through optimization in a society that became uncontrollably chaotic after the appearance of monsters, but also created a sacred guild before the government regulated it by law and raised it to the top in Korea. .

Ranking first as a guild in Korea as a company was an achievement that could not be found anywhere else in the world.

The one who succeeded him was Lee Se-hee, the second son of Shinsungga.

Although she was only in her 20s, her achievements were truly dazzling.

Under Lee Young-moon’s support, she was the one who raised Shinsung Guild to the top in Korea, and she played a role in helping Shinsung Group re-establish itself as a global company.

When Lee Se-chan, who was incompetent, became a vegetable and died, the Shinsung Group was naturally reorganized around her.

Although she had outstanding charisma and skills, there were many who aimed for a huge empire.

The presidents who previously followed Lee Young-moon and were purged, along with the working-level staff they placed, even those who died but followed Lee Se-chan.

They lost most of their power before Lee Young-moon died. However, due to some luck and reason, I was able to hold my head high again.

The first is the disappearance of Choi Jun-ho.

He was closely related to Lee Se-hee and was called the world’s strongest superhuman. He was the developer of the Big Bang series that put Shinsung Group on the rock.

He had no hesitation in demonstrating his immense power and was an object of fear to those on the other side.

But with him gone, Lee Se-hee lost her most reliable partner.

The second is the support of existing Shinsung family relatives.

Although he could no longer aim for the chairmanship directly due to the separation of affiliates, he was able to exert influence because he owned stocks as a member of the family.

The last one was jealousy towards her.

In his mid-20s, he is Korea’s largest conglomerate and head of a guild. On top of that, she has beautiful beauty and excellent skills as an awakened person.

Lee Se-hee, who had everything, was an object of admiration and jealousy at the same time. And there were many people who wanted to see her fall after winning everything at a young age.

“It is not easy.”

Lee Se-hee smiled bitterly as she received all these reports.

The situation that was being tightened all the time was not favorable at all.

Participation in today’s party was semi-compulsory.

It seemed like it would be easier to move if the government helped, but looking at the pressure coming from neighboring countries, including the United States, it didn’t seem easy.

How did it get to this point?

The cause put forth on the surface is for the benefit of the group, but the essence is simple.

Trying to take away what you have in your hands. In any situation, there would have been various reasons given.

“I don’t want to go.”

But I have to go.

Here, stepping back meant giving the other person confidence.

A confident opponent will push you harder than you are now.

The part about why I was watching this was simple.

The control of the group has not yet been completely completed.

This happened because the time between Lee Young-moon’s death and Choi Jun-ho’s disappearance was extremely short.

“If only I had a little more time…”

It was a regrettable experience that I will always regret.

Knock knock.

“Come on in.”

The person who came inside was the chief secretary.

“President. “I prepared it as you instructed.”

“Then let’s go.”

“yes? But…”

“Is there something wrong?”

“Wouldn’t it be better to follow the dress code?”

Lee Se-hee was currently wearing a comfortable suit. As it was an upper-class banquet, it was clear that a variety of dresses would appear.

“I don’t really want to worry about that part. Let’s go.”

“…I will take you there.”

The chief secretary, sensing her discomfort, did not suggest any more and followed Lee Se-hee.

* * *

“….”

It’s a series of developments I don’t like.

Lee Se-hee, who was traveling in a car, received a call from Jeong Da-hyun. Dahyun Jeong, who was originally supposed to attend the party today, announced that she would not attend due to an unexpected incident.

I asked repeatedly what was going on, but I couldn’t get an answer.

They just say it’s a personal matter.

“…If this is going to happen, you should at least tell me in advance.”

Jeong Da-hyun, who was his best friend and the youngest person to become a superhuman after Choi Jun-ho, was his most reliable ally at this point.

I thought I wouldn’t be lonely because I had her, but when she disappeared so suddenly, I felt like I was drifting alone in the open sea.

It’s a feeling I would never have felt before.

Lee Se-hee recalled the last words Jeong Da-hyeon said.

“Sending someone you can trust? “I don’t need any of that.”

What on earth do you see yourself as?

No, Jeong Da-hyun’s reaction was a matter of consideration as her current state could be seen that way.

“I’ve become weak too.”

As Choi Jun-ho went missing and there was so much noise about a year ago, I realized that there were many things that bothered me and that I needed someone to rely on.

The drying of blood probably refers to cases like this.

At first, I dealt with it resolutely, but more and more disturbing words kept flowing out. Even though they say no, they feel that the trend is gradually changing, and as most people gradually believe that, they naturally become isolated.

He just believes that Choi Jun-ho is alive and is pursuing his existing business.

At some point, people were treating it as a runaway locomotive with broken brakes.

If even Choi Jun-ho showed up at a time like this, he could turn the situation around in an instant.

When it comes to things happening in the world, an ominous feeling fits better than a hopeful circuit.

The fact that Choi Jun-ho had not appeared until now meant that there was a reason.

“…President?”

“yes.”

It was the driver’s voice that brought her out of her thoughts.

“You have arrived at your destination.”

“Let’s go.”

Where am I losing my mind? Lee Se-hee, with a bitter smile on her mind, came out and headed to the banquet hall. The number of people in the secretariat following him was uncharacteristically small for the number one chairman in the business world, but Lee Se-hee didn’t mind.

As I passed the entrance to the banquet hall and entered, numerous eyes began to pour in. I could sense the significance it contained, but I didn’t care.

At that time, a group of people approached Lee Se-hee.

“uh? “It’s the chairman.”

“sister.”

The person who spoke was Jeong In-hye of the Suyeon Hotel Group, which is classified as a subsidiary. Before Lee Se-hee appeared as the owner of a group that owns a duty-free shop and a department store, she was considered the most capable female chairman of a chaebol.

Since he had not yet been completely separated from the Suyeon Group, he was eagerly pursuing the position of group chairman.

“It’s an honor? “I also heard from the chairman of the main family about my sister.”

“No kidding.”

“I’m serious?”

“I’m not being recognized by others.”

“Jealousy. “They are really ugly.”

Jeong In-hye clicked her tongue and shook her head.

“I support our Sehee, so please don’t think that I’m the same as those people.”

“is it so?”

“Headbreaker doesn’t write off the deal if he died ridiculously. “It seems like there is no one better to lead Shinsung Group than you.”

“You know very well.”

“Yes, that confident look is the Sehee I know. “Do your best.”

“My sister too.”

Because they had been close friends since childhood, they were able to treat each other comfortably.

“Oppa Incheol is also moving.”

Jeong In-hye’s older brother, Jeong In-cheol, is a strong figure as the next head of Suyeon Group and is in a conflict with Jeong In-hye. Also, when Lee Se-chan was in a vegetative state, he was briefly mentioned as a candidate for the next president.

However, because his personality was mediocre and his management performance was embarrassing even compared to Lee Se-hee, he quickly disappeared.

I thought it was over then, but it seems to be slowly raising its head.

“He’s such a careless person that he’s bound to make quite a few mistakes. be careful.”

“Should I be worried?”

“Well, you should be worried about that guy, right? But I’m not worried.”

The conflict between Jeong In-cheol and Jeong In-hye was natural because no one knew about it.

“I don’t know what I will do if I cross the line.”

“If you make a mistake, you will be embarrassed here.”

Contrary to what she said, Jeong In-hye was smiling brightly.

“Now if Choi Jun-ho comes, maybe it will be perfect?”

“Why does that name appear?”

“Don’t you like the rotting bastard inside your pretty cousin? Once I see it, I have to speak kindly to it. “I need you to decide clearly between the two, Dahyun.”

Lee Se-hee’s serious expression relaxed. I knew that was what Jeong In-hye intended, but I also felt grateful for the effort.

“That’s Okay.”

“Oh, you’re saying you can take care of your own affairs?”

“No, because if I did that, my sister’s head might break.”

“Oh no way. “I’ve heard it’s extreme, but you’re going to break my head with a prank like this?”

“….”

“It’s true.”

“He is a person beyond imagination. “He’s a fun guy.”

“No matter how you look at it, it seems crazy rather than fun.”

“Don’t say things like that when I see you in person. Then something big happens.”

“It’s difficult. It’s difficult.”

After speaking a few more words with Jeong In-hye, who shook her head, Lee Se-hee headed to the center of the banquet hall.

This is a place where not only political figures but also popular stars come, so it would not be strange to call it a world of stars.

Although it seemed like the party was going on completely regardless of her, Lee Se-hee could feel it.

People who approach you pretending to say hello are trying to get some information, and a group is being formed implicitly to put pressure on you.

It was an invisible check that an ordinary person could not endure and would break down.

‘it is not diffcult.’

Lee Se-hee actually gained confidence in this atmosphere.

Others may think that Choi Jun-ho is dead and that the ally who could help him has disappeared, but his death has not been revealed.

The friendly stake that Choi Jun-ho had prepared was still there, and he proved it with solid results.

Here, he is the successor directly nominated by the previous president, Lee Young-moon.

I was confident that I could endure any situation as long as I did not waver from the pressure that spread fear.

I’m confident that I can last longer if I just get rid of those annoying people’s faces.

“Sehee.”

Just as Jeong In-hye had predicted, a 190cm tall middle-aged man with a good-looking smile was approaching from a distance.

“how have you been doing?”

“If possible, please give me a title, Chairman Chung.”

“We’re cousins, so we can treat each other more comfortably.”

“Please do me a favor, Chairman Chung.”

“…I can’t help it.”

Suyeon Group successor Jeong In-cheol, who had been acting close to Lee Se-hee, frowned slightly and then smiled again.

“I heard you’re having a hard time these days.”

“Thank you for your concern.”

“As a grateful relative, it’s a natural thing to do.”

Jeong In-cheol’s narrowed eyes showed greed.

“You say you’re fine, but the situation you’re in is unusual.”

“I do not know.”

“Headbreaker is dead.”

“….”

Lee Se-hee paused when the words she hated the most came out.

Either way, Jeong In-cheol continued with what he had to say.

“It’s true that I was your biggest ally. But Choi Jun-ho made too many enemies. “If it’s too late, you too will be considered an enemy.”

“Junho didn’t die.”

“The body has not been identified. But the fact that he hasn’t been seen for a year means that he is more likely dead.”

“I guess the Chairman thinks so.”

“It’s not just me, it’s everyone around me. But a dead person is dead, and a living person must live.”

Jeong In-cheol gave a friendly smile.

“Don’t sharpen your eyes and look around. “There are many people who can help you.”

Sweet words poured out as if the devil was whispering.

“Sehee, you have already shown great results. Don’t be caught up in the past and move towards the future. “I met a good man and started a family.”

The first thing you want to do is separate it from the head breaker.

Enter through that gap.

Lee Se-hee, who had been silently listening to the intervention disguised as advice, spoke.

“I guess he was saying it for me.”

“That’s right, we are family.”

“It’s a family.”

Even if it’s useless, it’s true that they are blood-connected and can control everything if they do something wrong.

Lee Se-hee smiled.

Jeong In-cheol also laughed, probably thinking that what he said worked.

“Just then I thought of a way to help the Chairman.”

“okay? Tell me anything. “I will help you with whatever I can.”

Lee Se-hee spoke without any hesitation.

“Can you please stay out of my sight?”

“what?”

“I can take care of my own affairs. So, I think it would be better to just stay still and out of sight.”

“….”

Jeong In-cheol’s expression hardened.

“…I guess you’re so crazy about men that you can’t hear me.”

“You must be mistaken, Chairman.”

“mistaken? I am seeing reality. “Your actions now will result in the collapse of Shinsung Group!”

“It’s very different from what I see.”

“Choi Jun-ho is dead. “You’re going to hold on to a dead body and sink with it?”

That has never happened and will never happen.

But it hurt my heart to think that everyone thought Choi Jun-ho was dead.

Because it really made me think that it could happen.

If it weren’t for the voice that suddenly interrupted.

“What if he’s alive?”

“what?”

The moment Jeong In-cheol, who was very angry, turned his head, he froze.

Accordingly, Lee Se-hee, who shifted her gaze, also opened her eyes wide at the unbelievable sight.

At some point, silence fell in the banquet hall.

It’s not because of their conversation.

This is because a person has appeared who has a ripple effect that will turn not only this place, but Korea and the entire world upside down.

A handsome young man dressed up as if he were the star of the party.

It was Choi Jun-ho, who had just been talking about Jeong In-cheol being dead.

But the force radiating from him was very fierce.

Choi Jun-ho approached with great strides. He passed Lee Se-hee and stood in front of Jeong In-cheol.

“I came back alive, what are you going to do?”
