Chapter 27: Rebate Card

Now he understand. That Lee Minho's change was his true self before acting all poor.

His poor college life before is fake and he is just pretending. Being a noble son and being a rich second generation is Lee Minho's real identity.

Lee raised his hands and surrendered.

"Okay, you win."

"I don't care, you have lied to us for so long, and you have eaten so many meals from us, you must make up for it."

Kang Dongwon said that while looking looking at Lee Minho's face seriously.

He wanted to see Lee Minho's reaction from his face. He was afraid that Lee Minho would not associate with them after revealing his identity.

After everything happened just now. He could see clearly that even Choi Jaywon and those rich second generations seemed to be

trying to curry favor with Lee Minho.

It can clearly see how high Lee Minho's status is in front of these rich second

generations in Kyoto.

If it weren't for Lee Minho, Choi Hyejin's cousin's attitude towards him wouldn't have changed so quickly.

Although he himself is also a rich second generation, there are also ranks among the rich second generations.

He knows that he is not up to the level of these rich second generations in Kyoto.

Therefore, he was afraid that Lee Minho will look down on him like other rich second generations.

Kang Dongwon and the others have been with Lee Minho together for four years.

They have already existed like brothers, if they don't communicate anymore, it will be

feel very uncomfortable.

Lee Minho saw his uneasiness in his casual attitude, and felt sorry for him.

With a smile on his face, he said. "I'm sorry it's my fault. But I can't afford to invite you to eat outside. May I have the honor to invite the three of you to come to my house and taste the dishes I personally cook instead?"

"Can't afford it? Tsk, you still want to fool me." Kang Dongwon didn't believe that Lee Minho couldn't afford to invite them to a eat outside.

But thinking of going out to eat delicacies outside to Lee Minho's cooking. Lee Minho cooking in person for them is more sincere.

"Okay, since you are so sincere and want to cook for us, I will forgive you this time."

Little did Kang Dongwon don't know that the reason why Lee Minho decided to cook himself was not to show sincerity, but because he had no money to entertain guests.

Because the 10 million his black card will not belong to him soon. He dicided to use it for something else.

The relationship between the two them are back to normal.

Soon, Choi Jaywon and Choi Hyejin finished the opening dance.

Kang Dongwon turned around and invited her to dance with him.

Lee Minho eyes glowed with excitement and admiration. It's his first time to see this kind of scene were everyone is dancing that could only be seen on TV in real life.

He experiencd this feeling before in the systems space simulation for his training but seeing it in real life feels different.

After a while, a young lady approached him and introduced herself and asked shyly.

"Hello. My name is Weilin. I wonder if I would be honored to invite you to a dance?"

The girl looked shy, but her eyes were shining.

She could see clearly that Lee Minho was surrounded by Yoon Jungsu and the others just now.

Although the girl had never met Lee Minho, she can see that many rich second generation wanted to please him.

If it is possible to hook up with him then it would a dream.

Being able to be with the upper-class rich second generation will make her life comfortable.

There are other girls around who want to dance with Lee Minho.

These rich second-generation daughters all have good eyesight and knows that Lee Minho's status is worlds apart compared to all of them present.

Just looking at Yoon Jungsu and the others, it is very obvious and can draw conclusions easily.

It's just that they took a step too late, and Weilin took the lead.

Weilin thinks that she is not bad looking, and her figure is good enough. Thinking about it, Lee Minho probably wouldn't refuse.

However, in contrast to her expectations. Lee Minho actually refused.

"Sorry, I need to find Choi Jaywon for something, I believe others will be honored to be invited by you."

After finishing speaking, Lee Minho nodded slightly, then turned and went to find Choi Jaywon without hesitation.

Weilin was left in a daze.

After dancing with Choi Hyejin, Choi Jaywon sat on the sofa with Yoon Jungsu and the others, complaining.

Kang Taehyun, who was dressed in a pink suit, held a red wine in his hand and shook it lightly.

"Although those daughters can enjoy themselves in private, some of them are not bad. Don't be too picky."

"That's right, you still have a choice. My old man just invited the Yoon family to his home. He didn't even give me a chance to refuse."

Seo Inguk picked up a handful of cake and put it in his mouth.

He has a sweet tooth since he was a child, so he is obese. But fortunately, he also exercises regularly every day, otherwise he

would have been too fat to walk.

Looking at him eating Choi Jaywon directly blamed Seo Inguk. "With you like this, it's good to have a woman who is willing to be

with you."

As if he remembered something Seo Inguk asked with serious. "Jaywon, how's your

game company?"

As soon as he talked about his game company, Choi Jaywon sighed.

"If I still can't attract investment, it's probably dead. I may need to ask my father to help me."

Many rich second generations are eager to enter their own family company, but Choi Jaywon is different.

He likes games, so after graduating from university, he went out to start a game company regardless of his family's opposition.

He also made a bet with his family that if the company is still in good condition within three years, the family will let him continue to do what he likes.

If the company can no longer operate within three years, he have to go back to work in his family company.

Choi Jaywon don't know if it's his bad luck. Since the game company was running very well in the beginning suddenly on the second year, it slowly started to fail.

In the past two years, more and more game companies have opened up, and the competition between them has also increased.

Several designers in Choi Jaywon's game company were poached by other companies with high salaries.

Although later, several game designers were recruited with high salaries. The funds in the company are gone, and there are still a lot of debts owed.

That's why if the company has no further capital injection, it will go bankrupt.

"How much money is there?" Yoon Jungsu asked.

"At least 5 million. Our large-scale online game is just in the final stage. In addition to repaying some previous debts, we also need funds for marketing and publicity. After the gamne comes out, as long as there are enough funds for marketing and publicity, it will definitely become popular."

Choi Jaywon looked at Yoon Jungsu expectantly. Among them, only Yoon Jungsu had spare money.

After all, Yoon Jungsu managed his car dealership very well.

But for Yoon Jungsu one million is barely okay, but five million is not a small amount.

Yoon Jungsu couldn't come up with it, so he could only shake his head.

Choi Jaywon scratched his hair in distress.

"Do you guys really want me to go to my father and ask help? I have managed to persevere until now, and I am about to succeed."

He was really not reconciled, and he was only short of five million.

Suddenly, a hand appeared behind Choi Jaywon and handed him a black card.

Choi Jaywon looked back and immediately stood up in surprised.

"Young Master Lee?"

Lee Minho was still thinking about how to talk about investing in Choi Jaywon's Game Company.

Unexpectedly, when he arrived, he have heard Choi Jaywon discussing this matter with Yoon Jungsu and the others.

"Young Master Lee, you are..."

Choi Jaywon looked at the black card that Lee Minho handed over suspiciously.

"10 million, is that enough?" Lee Minho asked.

"Huh?" Choi Jaywon didn't react in surprised.

Lee Minho smiled lightly and said. "I want to invest in your game company. Is 10 million enough?"

In an instant, Choi Jaywon's eyes sparkles. "Young Master Lee, is what you said true?"

Lee Minho tilted his head. "In five minutes,

if don't swipe the card, maybe I will change my mind."

"No."

Choi Jaywon immediately took the card in Lee Minho's hand, flattered and said.

"You don't need 10 million, 5 million is fine."

"5 million is too little, I'm not interested," Lee Minho said forcefully.

Although the systerm also said that it is enough to invest only five million. But this card can only be swiped once, but he thought that the remaining five million cannot be wasted.

In an instant, Choi Jaywon, Yoon Jungsu and the others felt that Lee Minho was shining with golden light, and it was so radiant.

Investing 10 million like some small money and it seems as simple as they only like one thousand.

Choi Jaywon immediately ran upstairs in hurry and took down the credit card machine.

After Lee Minho entered the password, the 10 million immediately went to Choi Jaywon's account.

The whole process only takes less than five

minutes.

As for why the card was swiped instead of the transfer, Choi Jaywon thought that it was because Lee Minho was too lazy to transfer the money.

After seeing the funds arrived in the account, Choi Jaywon was very grateful to Lee Minho.

He feels like Lee Minho is like a living bodhisattva a more dearly than my parents.

Choi Jaywon's parents gave him three million to start a company back then. The rest of the money was borrowed by Choi Jaywon.

As for Lee Minho, he have only known him for a short time, and he just got an 8 million worth of sports car with 10 million capital injection.

After that he immediately asked someone to prepare a share transfer contract.

Transferred 50% of the shares to Lee Minho.

After all, the investment of the original game company was only 12 million.

Lee Minho didn't care about the so-called shares, he only cared about whether he can complete the task.

After signing the contract Choi Jaywon asked Lee Minho.

"Young Master Lee, why do you suddenly want to invest in my game company?"

Lee Minho thought in his heart. 'Of course it's because the task has to be completed.'

But he can't tell that thing.

Lee Minho didn't speak, but looked at Kang Dongwon who was talking and laughing with Choi Hyejin.

Looking at this Choi Jaywon instantly understood.

"Young Master Lee, I understand. Don't worry, no one will be my brother-in-law except Kang Dongwon. If my cousin treats Kang Dongwon badly, I will never bypass her."

Lee Minho had black lines on his face.

The reason why he looked at Kang Dongwon just now was because he was

trying to explain it.

In the end, Choi Jaywon misunderstood him.

Well, a misunderstanding is a misunderstanding.

Thinking on the bright side, it's actually a good thing or else it will be really difficult for him to explain why he invested 10 million.

Since Choi Jaywon misunderstood that it was for Kang Dongwon that he invested in

his company.

Then let him misunderstand.

In this way, Choi Jaywon is there for Kang Dongwon and should also be able to easily

deal with his future father-in-law and mother-in-law.

Choi Jaywon doesn't care why Lee Minho invested in his company, as long as the

funds are in place.

With this 10 million, his company can be brought back to life.

Moreover, not only did he get 10 million in funds tonight, but he also got a sports car worth 8 million.

After Yoon Jungsu and the others saw this

scene. They were also extremely envious.
