Chapter 0200 Don't Take the Meat Bun for the Main Dish
Hearing this, Kim Hye-so's face suddenly froze.
What do you mean by just saying thank you with your mouth?
It's not a gluttonous body.
Li Jingen on the side also glanced at Lu Qing in surprise, but then calmed down.
Men, no matter how rich and powerful they are, they can't change their hobbies.
Seeing Jin Huixiu's hesitation, Lu Qing didn't urge, picked up the coffee and said with a smile: "Don't worry, how about tasting my coffee first." β
"Thank you."
Kim Hye-so smiled reluctantly and drank absentmindedly, unable to drink anything delicious at all.
Li Jingen on the side was very involved in drinking, and after tasting it, he praised: "President Chen, your coffee is really good, the taste is mellow, and although it is bitter in the mouth, there is a dense sweetness contained in itβit should be very precious, right?" β
"Sorry, I don't really know the price of this coffee."
Lu Qing shook his head and smiled: "I just heard from them, it seems to have come in from Indonesia." β
"Could this be the legendary cat poop coffee?"
Li Jingen was pleasantly surprised.
"Cat...... Coffee? β
Lu Qing blinked, he had naturally heard of this coffee variety, which was known as the most expensive coffee variety in the coffee world, but because he had never been good at this, he subconsciously felt a little disgusted when he heard it.
Li Jingen was obviously very concerned about this kind of thing, and picked up the coffee in his hand and exclaimed, "I heard that this kind of coffee costs 50,000 won a cup, and it has no price, but I didn't expect Chairman Chen to drink ...... every day."
Speaking of which, she winked at Kim Hye-so, who was still hesitating, suggesting that she must seize this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Although being an actor can be sought after by thousands of fans, it is nothing compared to a big man like Lu Qing who holds power.
If you can get in touch with Lu Qing with this, it will be much easier than working hard in the entertainment industry?
Of course, the most important thing is that Kim Hye-so has developed well, and his agent also has a commission.
Kim Hye-so also saw Lee Jing-eun's eyes, but she still didn't want to use her body as a trading tool like this, so she hesitated for a moment and finally said, "I'm sorry, Chairman Chen, you ...... Can you give me some time to think about it? β
"Of course."
Lu Qing didn't feel angry at all after being rejected, and nodded politely: "This kind of thing mainly depends on Miss Kim Hye-so's wishes, and I won't force it." β
"Thank you, President Chen, for your understanding!"
Kim Hye-so already had a good impression of Lu Qing, and at this time she was even more grateful.
Since she rejected Lu Qing's conditions, she was embarrassed to stay, got up and said, "Since this is the case, then we won't bother President Chen." β
Li Jingen secretly screamed in her heart that it was a pity, but she didn't dare to make decisions for Kim Hye-so, so she had to reluctantly put down the coffee in her hand.
Seeing this, Lu Qing smiled and said to the maid waiting on the side, "Go get a few bags of coffee and wrap them for the two distinguished guests." β
"No, no, no, we're already embarrassed to come empty-handed, how can we bring things back, that's rude!"
Lee Jing-eun and Kim Hye-so hurriedly excused themselves.
"It's not a valuable item."
Lu Qing waved his hand indifferently.
The two couldn't refuse, but the main Kim Hye-so saw that Li Jingen really wanted it, so he had to blush-face his subordinates, and he couldn't even say that he would give Lu Qing a gift in return.
After sending the two out of the room, Kim Hye-so and the others asked Lu Qing to turn around and walk towards the door by himself.
"Alas, Hye-so, why don't you take advantage of this opportunity?"
Li Jingen looked at the coffee in her hand lovingly and said regretfully.
"What to grasp is just a transaction."
Kim Hye-so shook his head and said, "Could it be that with this time, I will be able to climb the high branches of Shunyang Group?" β
There are many celebrities who marry wealthy businessmen, but there are too few who marry chaebols, especially in South Korea, a country that values dignity and inferiority, it is almost impossible.
"And what about your mother's side, you don't care?"
Li Jingen asked.
"Take one step at a time, I don't know what to do."
Kim Hye-so whispered.
While they were talking, the two heard Kim Hye-so's mobile phone ring.
Kim Hye-so picked it up and saw that it was Roh Young-e calling.
She thought that her mother still wanted money, so she hung up directly.
But soon, after walking two steps, I heard the bell ring again.
"Let's take it, maybe something else?"
Li Jingen persuaded.
Kim Hye-so hesitated for a moment, and then answered the phone.
As soon as she connected, she heard an unfamiliar man's voice on the other side of the phone: "It's Miss Kim Hye-so, right?" β
"Who are you, how do you have my mother's phone, I want to talk to my mother!"
Seeing that it was a stranger who answered the call, Kim Hye-so was in a hurry and said in a loud voice.
"Don't worry, your mother is fine now."
The man on the other end of the phone handed the phone to Lu Ying'e's mouth, and soon, Kim Hye-so heard her mother's panicked and frightened voice: "Hye-so, quick, come and save me, they are going to kill me-ah!" β
"Mom, how are you, are you okay, Mom?"
Hearing her mother's panic, Kim Hye-so became more and more anxious.
At this time, the man took the phone again and said jokingly: "Miss Kim Hye-so, don't worry, because your mother has not paid back the money, so we can't help it, so we brought her to us as a guest, rest assured, as long as you pay back the money obediently, I guarantee that your mother will not lose a single hair." β
"Where are you?"
Kim Hye-so's face was already pale with fright, and he said urgently: "I warn you, it is illegal to illegally detain others!" β
"Illegal detention is illegal, so I don't know if it's illegal to pay back the money!"
The man's voice suddenly rose and he said sharply: "I warn you, Kim Hye-so, tomorrow, this is the deadline I give you, if you can't pay back the money your mother owes by tomorrow, just wait to receive your mother's finger as a gift!" β
After saying that, hang up the phone directly.
"Hey, hey!"
Listening to the busy tone on the phone, Kim Hye-so looked panicked and quickly called back, only to show that the phone was turned off.
"What should I do, what should I do now?"
Kim Hye-so anxiously asked Li Jing-eun: "Sister Jing-eun, do you have any money, the debt collector wants me to pay back the money tomorrow, otherwise I will cut off my mother's finger, what should I do......"
Hearing this, Li Jingen was also taken aback by the violence of the debt collector, but then she thought of something and said, "Huixiu, don't panic first, you forgot where we are now?" β
Kim Hye-so paused abruptly and subconsciously looked behind him.
There, the three-storey luxury villa stands quietly, majestic and solemn, which makes people involuntarily feel a sense of awe when they see it.
Kim Hye-so's white teeth clenched her lips, and her eyes were full of confusion.
She didn't want to trade her body for that.
However, her mother's panicked voice just now always echoed in her head, and if she couldn't raise money today, her mother's fingers would be cut off by the debt collectors......
Thinking of the scene where her mother held her severed finger and howled, Kim Hye-so shook her head vigorously.
Taking a deep breath, Kim Hye-so wiped the corners of her eyes, endured her sadness and said to Li Jingen: "Sister Jing-eun, you can go back by yourself first, Hu... I'll talk to President Chan again. β
Hearing this, Li Jingen knew that Kim Hye-so had made a choice, she hugged Kim Hye-so distressedly, and wanted to comfort her, but she felt that whatever she said seemed insignificant, so she had to shut up.
β¦β¦
"Miss Kim Hye-so, why are you back?"
Seeing Kim Hye-so, who had gone and returned, Lu Qing asked in surprise.
"Please save my mother, President Chen!"
Seeing Lu Qing, Kim Hye-so knelt down directly at him and gave a big salute.
"Miss Kim Hye-so, hurry up, what are you doing."
Lu Qing hurriedly picked up Kim Hye-so and helped her to sit down on the sofa.
"Just now, I got a call......"
Kim Hye-so wiped her tears and said the content of the phone call just now, and then she looked at Lu Qing with both eyes and said, "Before tomorrow, I can't make up enough $500,000, so I hope you can come forward to talk to the bank and give me a few more days...... As long as you're willing to help me, I... I'll say yes to everything! β
"How violent is bank debt collection? It's really unbelievable! β
Lu Qing first condemned, and then said: "Well, since Miss Kim Hye-so is so sincere in saving her mother, I will agree to this matter." β
As he spoke, he took out his mobile phone and dialed the general manager of Daegu Bank: "Manager Han, there is a customer named Lu Ying'e in our bank, what ......about her?"
Lu Qing explained the matter clearly in a few words, and finally said: "I understand that you are in a hurry to recover the arrears, but you can't use violent means, it is not good for the bank's reputation to spread it." In this case, I don't think it's better to give her a few days of grace first, and then it's not too late until she has the ability to pay it back......"
A few minutes later, Lu Qing hung up the phone and smiled at Jin Huixiu: "Okay, the matter has been made clear, the people below are not sensible, they don't know that you are Ms. Lu's daughter, and your mother should be released back after a while." β
"Thank you, President Chen, thank you!"
Kim Hye-so breathed a sigh of relief.
Sure enough, just two minutes later, she received a call from her mother again, this time, it was Lu Ying'e herself.
She was both happy and puzzled to tell Kim Hye-so that after receiving a phone call, the debt collectors suddenly changed their attitudes, became polite to themselves, and sent themselves out in a Mercedes Benz.
"Good daughter, did you find some hard relationship to fish out your mother, you must thank others, you know?"
Lu Ying'e instructed on the phone, and then her voice changed, and she said: "By the way, is your friend from the banking system, see if he can make a guarantee for his mother and borrow ......."
"Well, I don't want to talk about that!"
Seeing that her mother was still thinking about borrowing money at this time, before she finished speaking, Kim Hye-so directly interrupted her, especially thinking of the price she had to pay immediately in order to save her, Kim Hye-so was even more angry that her eyes were red, and she said angrily:
"As long as you don't continue to borrow money to start a business in the future, it's better than anything!"
After saying that, just hang up the phone and throw the phone aside.
After throwing it away, she remembered that she was not at her own house, and hurriedly apologized to Lu Qing: "I'm sorry, President Chen, I lost my temper." β
"Miss Kim Hye-so has a frank temperament, what is there to apologize for?"
Lu Qing smiled slightly: "It's not early, why don't we go have a light meal first?" β
thereupon
He started with snowflake steak, pan-fried foie gras, grilled salmon and other dishes as a starter, and then savored the main meal consisting of two large meat buns and abalone.
The appetizer naturally tastes good, and it is made by hired top chefs, but it is still a little worse than the loose, soft, elastic, white, and beautiful meat buns, and the fat and juicy abalone.
So much so that Lu Qing tasted it five times in a row overnight, and then he was satisfied.
The next day, Kim Hye-so had to ask the crew for leave, and she lost some water.
