[The Body Buyer] [Episode 12] Chapter 1: Who Stands Behind Du Li?**
Du Li, who appeared to be past her prime, was surprisingly alluring after removing her outer clothing. Her breasts were firm, her abdomen smooth, her buttocks round and pert, and her mons pubis full—she looked like a youthful, voluptuous woman, not a thirty-nine-year-old. "
Are you doing this on purpose? Without makeup, people think you're old, but your figure is still outstanding. If you were willing to put on makeup, you'd still be the superstar Du Li who captivated countless men and women," Ronan said. "
Intentionally? Was it necessary? I'm just tired of pretense and cover-ups. My true self is without makeup."
"You're proud!"
"It's persistence."
"Such persistence is commendable. It's a pity time doesn't appreciate it, otherwise it would have slowed its pace on your face, just as it has on your body." "
Are you done evaluating? You haven't answered my question yet." "
I'm sorry, I was captivated by your figure and completely forgot your intentions. To be honest, this gesture is very tempting, a feeling of possession is within reach, almost igniting the desire within me. Now I only urgently want to ask you one question: can I touch it?" Saying this, Ronan tremblingly reached out his hand, like a dying old man seeing the body of a young and beautiful girl, wanting to touch it before he breathed his last. Du Li quickly took two steps back, her face cold. "
Who do you think I am? Showing you my body before a deal is done, that's already a favor. If you want me, promise me you'll do me a favor. After that, you can touch me as much as you want, until you get tired of it." "
And what if I never get tired of it? Would you stay by my side forever?" Ronan laughed. "
Is there any point in discussing this now?" Du Li didn't answer the question directly. "
It's pointless. The deal hasn't even started. Just arguing on the surface is pointless. You've woken me up, so I can only apologize. Your figure is unexpectedly stunning, enough to drive any man crazy. Just now, I almost lost my mind and let you do as you pleased. Unfortunately, I'm awake now, and I think I should stick to my principles." "
Your principles? You can't let greed kill you?"
"No, I've changed my mind. Sometimes life requires risk, especially when you want something incredibly beautiful."
"So you agree?"
"I agree in principle, but I disagree with the payment method. My principles haven't changed; I've just enriched them. If you want me to work for you, you must give me tangible benefits beforehand. Only then can I overcome my fear of death. Without tangible benefits, just empty words, seeing but not touching, I lack passion and courage."
"You want to sleep with me right now?"
Ronan nodded eagerly.
"You're dreaming!"
"I knew it." Ronan sighed. "
I think you should know what to say and what not to say. I don't want to hear you mention this from Eguchi Yoshinori."
"I know, even if a deal falls through, we can still be on good terms." "
That's for the best. One last piece of advice: sometimes not being greedy can be just as deadly." With that, Du Li ushered Ronan out of the room.
Ronan didn't linger, turning and leaving, leaving behind a muttered thought: "Looks like she still has a trump card."
That afternoon, the press conference was held in the hotel's largest conference hall, and as expected, a large number of media outlets were present, a sea of heads.
Ronan entered the conference hall, surrounded by Eguchi Yoshinori and a group of bodyguards. Several high-ranking executives from Shen Yun Construction Company accompanied him, all unfamiliar to Ronan.
Flashbulbs rained down like a storm.
Ronan greeted it all with a natural expression. In contrast, Eguchi Yoshinori's face showed a hint of tension. He felt he was well-prepared, but he still hadn't expected so many media outlets to come. Not only were influential media outlets from South Korea present, but some foreign media had also sent representatives. "
You'd better be careful," Eguchi Yosuke whispered to Ronan as they sat down.
Ronan nodded. He knew what Eguchi Yosuke was worried about, but Eguchi Yosuke's concerns didn't bother him.
According to the press conference schedule Eguchi Yosuke had outlined, Ronan was supposed to give a brief speech explaining the reason for the delay and the company's progress in investigating the series of shootings. However, Eguchi Yosuke had clearly underestimated the media's agitation and, more importantly, the enthusiasm of some potential enemies for digging deep.
Before Ronan could even speak, someone stood up with a phone and loudly asked, "Chairman Zhu, you are involved in the insider trading case involving Congressman Han. What are your thoughts on Congressman Han's recent assassination attempt?"
This person was Zhang Bing. This Times reporter was indeed persistent and professional. Zhang Bing's question was shocking, leaving Ronan stunned. He hadn't heard Eguchi Yosuke mention the assassination attempt.
Even Yoshihiro Eguchi was stunned by the news, muttering, "Impossible...we didn't send anyone to assassinate Representative Han." " How could Representative Han have been assassinated? Where did you get this information, reporter? "
Unable to get Eguchi to speak, Ronan had to ask directly.
"I just received news that one of my colleagues was on the scene. Councilor Han suddenly developed high blood pressure while in custody and was granted medical parole. He was taken to a nearby hospital, and right in front of the hospital, a gunman shot him with a sniper rifle. His current condition is unknown. Chairman Zhu, is this something you hired to cover up your crimes?" Zhang Bing questioned sternly. Ronan shook his head: "
Reporter Zhang, you should know that I've also been attacked by unknown gunmen using sniper rifles. Look at my head, I still have bandages on." "
Then, Chairman Zhu, could you explain why you and Councilor Han were both shot? Is there some shady connection or secret between you?"
"Reporter Zhang, you're joking. A few days ago at Shen Yun Construction Company, my chief secretary told you that I have no deep connection with Councilor Han." "
Is Chairman Zhu just making excuses like this?"
"No, I have a responsibility. Actually, I've sent people to investigate the gunman extensively, which is why the press conference was delayed until today. Now I have a clear lead, and I think this lead will also be useful in investigating the assassination of Councilor Han." "
You found the gunman?" Zhang Bing was somewhat shocked.
"Who is he?" the reporters quickly asked. After recovering from his initial shock, Eguchi Yosuke was surprised to see Ronan handle the situation so well .
When Ronan successfully shifted the reporters' attention to the gunman's identity, he secretly gave Ronan a thumbs-up under the table.
Ronan then recounted his deductions about the gunman based on the information he had reviewed.
"Chairman Zhu, are you saying Donghe is the gunman, and this series of shootings is all Xuanzhen's doing?" Zhang Bing pressed. "
Whether or not to bring him to justice should be decided by the police. I'll be keeping an eye on you. Also, Chairman Zhu, I want to tell you, don't think this insider trading case is over." With that, Zhang Bing decisively left the meeting room. Ronan
glanced at Eguchi Yosuke, noticing him staring intently at Zhang Bing's departing figure, a hint of malice flashing in his eyes. Zhang Bing's departure made some reporters uneasy, but most raised their hands, wanting to ask questions of Ronan and the others sitting on the stage.
The press conference lasted for over an hour before finally ending.
As soon as the reporters dispersed, Eguchi Yosuke hurriedly left.
"The chief secretary is really busy!" Ronan remarked, seemingly with a sigh. "
Not as busy as you, Chairman Zhu," said Du Li, who had somehow appeared beside Ronan, her tone laced with sarcasm, clearly holding a grudge.
"I thought you, my personal secretary, wouldn't speak to me for at least three days, but only three hours have passed,"
Ronan said, turning and smiling.
"You're truly magnanimous. I hope you'll remain so magnanimous after all this is over."
"I hope so! No one can predict the ending." "
Is that so? But I know your ending."
"Personal secretary, I think you could become a doomsday theorist."
"I don't know if you're feigning ignorance or genuinely stupid, but consider my words wasted. Someone wants to see you; they're in your room." With that, Du Li turned away, as if indicating she couldn't be bothered to look at Ronan again.
Ronan, unperturbed, smiled nonchalantly and walked towards his room. Upon entering the room, Ronan realized he shouldn't have come in, because there was someone he shouldn't have seen at the moment—Park In-byul.
"Hello, long time no see," Park In-byul bowed deeply to Ronan, displaying impeccable manners.
Ronan smiled wryly, "Only three days. I heard you went to Japan to shoot commercials, how come you're back so soon?"
"Because the shooting went very smoothly, two cosmetics commercials won't take long," Park In-byul smiled, revealing her teeth.
Ronan secretly felt a headache coming on. He could smell Park In-byul's intentions; it was definitely the plan Chen Mingyi had mentioned last time. However, he was currently getting closer to the core of the Shenyun Group company; how could he have time to play along with this big star? Moreover, he knew that if he got too close to Park In-byul, it would definitely anger Zhu Zhengzhong even more. Then it wouldn't just be a group of thugs raiding his house in the middle of the night; they might just send someone to kill him.
Ronan didn't want to confront Zhu Zhengzhong directly for the time being, even though he knew he was important and had a force secretly protecting him. This was why Zhu Zhengzhong had temporarily suppressed his anger over Nong Caiwei. However, everyone's patience has its limits. Zhu Zhengzhong could tolerate it once, but never a second time. In fact, Zhu Zhengzhong hadn't tolerated it the first time either; his punishment had simply failed. "
Um... what do you want?" Ronan asked, forcing a smile.
"You can probably guess what I want to talk to you about."
"Well—I've been busy lately, and my mind's a bit muddled." "
Since you're not feeling well, it's only natural that you go to the hospital. Please." Park In-bing bowed again, her tone filled with unwavering resolve.
Ronan wanted to slap himself. How could he have let this girl seize on something so casually? But did he have any way out now?
"I wonder how good the conditions are at that hospital?" Ronan smiled bitterly again. "
It wasn't great at first, because it was a public hospital for ordinary people. But a few months ago, it was converted into a private hospital, and the facilities have been completely updated. It should be very comfortable." "
It used to be a luxury hospital. Did that hospital sponsor a lot of money for the movie, so you're promoting it as well?"
"I'm ashamed to say, that's true. I didn't originally want to choose a hospital, but since I've come up with such a perfect solution, I had to adopt it." "
It's more than perfect, it's killing two birds with one stone. By the way, what's the name of that hospital?"
"It used to be called Renshu Hospital, but now it's called Huaishan Island Hospital." "
Renshu Hospital? Renshu Hospital in Guangjin District?"
"Yes, you know that hospital? How do you know?"
"I just heard the name recently, what a coincidence. Okay, I accept your request. I hope you can get past the chief secretary. Should I faint now?" "
Hmm."
With a thud, Ronan fell back onto the sofa, and then a scream rang out: "Help!"
An hour later.
Ronan, all smiles, sat in the most luxurious ward of Huaishan Island Hospital, munching on a ripe, green apple while watching the news on television about "Chairman Zhu of the Shen Yun Group suddenly fainting." Park In-byul, watching
Ronan's smug expression, couldn't help but rub her forehead, feigning a headache. She suddenly began to suspect that this man sitting on the hospital bed had been wanting to be admitted for a while; otherwise, why would he seem so happy?
After a while, Park In-byul finally couldn't stand Ronan's enjoyment any longer and said coldly, "The chief secretary should have received the news."
"He already knew. He was definitely the first one to receive the news as soon as I left the hotel," Ronan laughed. "
Then why didn't he come?" Park In-byul asked, somewhat surprised.
"Maybe he thinks it's better for me to stay in the hospital. After all, hotels are crowded and dangerous, even less safe than a luxury apartment in Seocho District."
"That's not a reason. If you want safety, you can find somewhere else."
"No, there's no place more suitable than this hospital, believe me." "
Are you hiding something from me?" Park In-bing glared at him, demanding.
Ronan curled his lip. This girl was practically ungrateful. He had followed her request to stay in the hospital, and she had even changed how she addressed him, naturally switching from "you" to "you (formal)." But undeniably, it sounded quite warm, much more pleasant than the stiff "you (formal)."
"You finally figured it out, but it's not that I'm hiding anything from you, it's just that you know too little," Ronan hinted.
Actually, Ronan felt sorry for Park In-bing. A dazzling superstar was deeply in love with Zhu Zhengzhong, a love that could be described as pure. However, she knew very little about Zhu Zhengzhong; she didn't know that Du Li had been married to him, nor that he was planning to get engaged to Congressman Huang's daughter. Ronan almost suspected that one day Zhu Zhengzhong might sell her out without her even realizing it.
"Just say what you want to say, don't beat around the bush," Park In-bing said through gritted teeth. She felt utterly humiliated to be looked down upon by a Chinese man. If she didn't need his help, she would have definitely taught him a lesson. "
Okay. Actually, it's not a secret. This afternoon, my chief secretary and I held a press conference. He asked me to announce the progress in the investigation of the shooting. We have a major suspect now, the son of a woman named Xuanzhen—Donghe." "
Xuanzhen? The Xuanzhen case from 2013?"
"Yes, exactly seven years ago. You remember it so clearly." "
Because I was performing in a stage play at the time. It was my first time playing the lead role, so I have a deep memory of many things that happened then. Less than six months later, I entered the entertainment industry and officially debuted." "
After you met Mr. Zhu Zhengzhong, didn't he mention the Xuanzhen case to you?"
"No, we only talk about happy things when we're together, and rarely talk about the past." "
No wonder you didn't know. Xuanzhen, the protagonist of the Xuanzhen case, was in a car accident seven years ago and became a vegetable. She was later arranged to be admitted to a hospital, which is here, the former Renshu Hospital, now Huaishan Island Hospital." "
Really? What a coincidence!"
"I want to know too."
"But... if Xuanzhen's son is the murderer, why did you agree to my request? Isn't it dangerous to stay in this hospital?"
"The most dangerous place is also the safest place. Besides, I suspect that Xuanzhen, who is now in a vegetative state, might not even still be here."
"Why do you have this suspicion? Can a person in a vegetative state run away?"
"A person in a vegetative state can't run away, but if the gunman is Donghe, would he leave himself this flaw? I've carefully considered several shooting cases and believe that the gunman is not only accurate with his marksmanship but also meticulous in his thinking and calm in his actions. Such a person wouldn't leave such an obvious flaw for those investigating him. Of course, this is assuming the gunman really is Donghe." "That
makes sense. Now I also want to know if Donghe's mother is here. If she's not, wouldn't that prove Donghe is the murderer?"
"No, we also need to check if the hospital transferred all the patients after the reforms." "
That's right, we can't ignore that. This place has become a luxury hospital, medical costs have skyrocketed, and most patients will be transferred to other public hospitals. I'll go check immediately."
"You're going to check?"
"Of course, my curiosity has been piqued. I won't be able to eat or sleep if I don't know the answer."
"Aren't you afraid the shooter will harm you?"
"Hmph... His target is you, it's none of my business."
"Really none of your business? Don't forget you're another key figure in the shooting. Remember that threat, 'You belong only to me'? I think Donghe has definitely fallen in love with you, which is why he hates Mr. Zhu Zhengzhong even more. Maybe he's hiding somewhere in the hospital right now, waiting for you to come out, then kidnapping you, taking you somewhere, and then..."
"Ah... Damn it! What are you talking about? You think I'm afraid? You probably don't know, I've studied Taekwondo, Judo, Chinese Kung Fu, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu..."
"Impressive, you even know Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, you're practically invincible."
"Hmph... I don't believe you, you pervert!"
"Oh dear, you dare call me a pervert? Believe me or not, I'll walk out of the hospital right now and ruin your double-kill plan!"
"You dare threaten me? Did I say something wrong? Aren't you a lecher? Don't think I don't know what you did at the Crimson Winery."
"Yes! I know you know. It seems this has become a stain on my pitiful life."
"Hmph... Good that you know. Don't think you're the only one who can threaten. If you dare betray me, I'll tell your wife about your philandering." With that, Park In-byul turned and proudly walked out of the ward. She hadn't given up on finding answers.
"She's so stubbornly adorable!" Ronan shook his head and chuckled.
No sooner had Park In-byul left than Eguchi Yoshinori and Du Li walked in.
Du Li's expression was calm, but Eguchi Yoshinori frowned, looking preoccupied.
"You're not unwell. This was all arranged by Miss In-byul, right?" Eguchi Yoshinori asked immediately. Ronan nodded. 　　"It's good that you're in the hospital. At least it shows that the gunshot wound you suffered wasn't an act." " 　　An act? Does the media have such speculation?" Ronan asked, somewhat surprised
. " 　　Yes. Reporters' imaginations are truly boundless. Especially Zhang Bing, who is relentlessly pursuing us. He's expanding his investigation from Shen Yun's architecture to the entire Shen Yun Group. Now, all the companies are on high alert, not daring to break any rules. The power of the media can sometimes be truly frightening!" Eguchi Yosuke remarked with considerable admiration. " 　　Is the Chief Secretary just going to let things continue like this?" 　　"This is no longer something I can interfere with. The assassination attempt on Representative Han has made the Chairman feel a great sense of crisis, and he has personally arranged for people to handle it." 　　"Could it be... that Mr. Zhu Zhengzhong doesn't completely trust the Chief Secretary?" " 　　The Chairman is like a king, he can't completely trust anyone. I'm acting under orders from Mr. Kondo Kazuo, the Chief of Staff to the Chairman, and my relationship with the Chairman isn't close." " 　　Why did the Chief Secretary tell me all this?" 　　"Because I felt you performed very well at the press conference, and Mr. Kondo praised you highly. He intends to recruit you to work for Shen Yun Construction Company after you finish your stunt work. What do you think?" 　　"I'm flattered, but I still have a year of stunt work to do, it's too early to talk about these things now." 　　"Not too early. This is just to prepare you mentally. From now on, we're on the same side." 　　"On the same side? I'm even more flattered."

"You don't need to be modest. I believe you have the qualities to stand on your own and the potential to become a prominent figure. Okay, let's leave that topic here for now and talk about future work. I've already learned some things from your agent and understand Ms. Renbing's intention in arranging your hospitalization. She's a truly devoted woman, very touching, and I believe the chairman wouldn't object if he knew. However, your stunt work can't be interrupted. Even if you're in the hospital, Shen Yun Architecture and the entire Shen Yun Group need you to maintain order, so there will only be more and more things like signing documents and holding meetings. I'll try my best to arrange these tasks online and will also get a mobile Dream Scepter from headquarters."
"Chief Secretary, I feel that whether it's signing documents or holding meetings, you can handle it. I don't think I can play a real role."
"No, you'll need to play a more practical role from now on. You might not know this, but starting today, not only will you be involved in Shen Yun Architecture's affairs, but also in the affairs of another company—Shen Yun Shipbuilding. Shen Yun Shipbuilding is currently undertaking a grand project, but they've encountered many difficulties that require your assistance in resolving. This matter has already been approved by the Chairman; he has agreed to let you handle these specific matters, but you'll need to undergo relevant training." "
Training? Does the Chief Secretary mean I'm going to become the actual Chairman?" "
You could say that. You will play an important role in these affairs, possessing a certain degree of autonomy, no different from a real Chairman." "
I see! Is it difficult?"
"Will it take a long time?"
"That depends on the situation. If you can channel your enthusiasm for learning Korean into the training, I think it will be completed in less than a month. I've already set up a training team for you, including several managers from Shen Yun Architecture and Shen Yun Shipbuilding. They will be responsible for the training, and they will also be your assistants in handling specific matters."
"Chief Secretary, don't you think this is putting me in a difficult position? I'm not an MBA graduate, do you think I can handle this?"
"You can, and I even think you can shine even brighter." With that, Yosuke Eguchi bowed with a smile.
"Shines brighter? Was I a hidden gem before?" Ronan wore a bewildered expression.
"You'll understand later. By the way, there's another task I need you to do. It's very important, and the time is scheduled for noon the day after tomorrow. You must go to headquarters." "
You mean Shen Yun software?" Ronan's expression brightened; he hadn't expected the long-awaited opportunity to come so quickly.
"Yes, this task will be handled by Ms. Du Li." With that, Yosuke Eguchi gave up his seat next to the hospital bed.
Du Li approached Ronan, bowed slightly, and said expressionlessly, "The job is simple; I just need you to work as a mover at headquarters."
"What?" "You heard me right, a mover. This
is related to a succession system at headquarters. Due to the potential threats of internet viruses and hackers, Shenyun Software at headquarters hasn't completely gone paperless. Important documents are backed up on paper or stored purely as paper documents. The document storage location is a hundred meters underground at headquarters, in a secure document vault comparable to the central bank's treasury. Every three months, many important documents, including the latest confidential documents from various companies, are sent to headquarters and personally locked in the secure document vault by the chairman; no one else is allowed to participate. Now that the chairman is away, you are the chairman, so this job must be taken over by you." "
How could Mr. Zhu Zhengzhong agree to entrust such an important job to an outsider like me? Does he trust me that much?" Ronan was somewhat dumbfounded.
Ronan hadn't expected Shenyun Software to have such a "treasure trove" as its secure document vault. Would Zhu Zhengzhong really dare to let him into that "treasure trove"? Would he have such magnanimity? Ronan shook his head inwardly. There must be some hidden reason he didn't know. Unless Zhu Zhengzhong had lost his mind,
he would never dare to take such a risk. "The chairman's decision is a last resort. Please be prepared. I will personally drive to pick you up the day after tomorrow at noon." After saying this, Du Li bowed again and left the ward.
Jiang Kouyang watched Du Li leave, his face showing a mixture of emotions.
"Chief Secretary, wasn't Miss Du Li someone you invited back? How come it seems she's now directly under Chairman Zhu Zhengzhong's command?" Ronan deliberately probed. "
You're mistaken. Miss Du Li was originally arranged by the chairman himself to be your personal secretary. However, she also has connections with Chief Kondo, which is why she's given such important responsibilities. You don't need to worry. Miss Du Li is trustworthy. Just listen to her arrangements." At this point, Jiang Kouyang frowned again, seemingly puzzled by some things about Du Li. Ronan found it intriguing .
Although Eguchi Yosuke's words were vague, he could sense that Du Li seemed to be wavering between two forces.
"A fence-sitter?" Ronan murmured almost inaudibly. As he spoke, a smile gradually appeared on his lips, seemingly containing a hint of excitement.
