Chapter 456 To Eat the Princess's Money or Not

The next day at dawn.

He touched the beauty's jade-like back. Korean girls are indeed very smooth, delicate, and charming. However, Sung Yu-ri's condition yesterday was a bit off.

Looking at Sung Yu-ri's expression while exercising, I knew something was wrong.

"Is Yuri awake?"

Sung Yu-ri opened her eyes, looked at the man comforting her, and nodded.

"good morning."

"good morning."

"Has something happened to Yuri?"

Sung Yu-ri was taken aback and shook her head: "It's okay, I'm fine."

"That's good? No way, you cried several times last night."

Upon hearing this, tears welled up in Sung Yu-ri's eyes and streamed down her face. Shen Fang couldn't bear to see a woman cry.

"What happened? Don't cry. Tell me what's wrong, and I'll help you."

Sung Yu-ri sobbed, "How can I resolve this? My fiancé found out I went out to work as a hostess yesterday and broke up with me. No matter how I explain, he won't listen. He calls me a slut."

Shen Fang... this matter really does have something to do with him....

"Come on, tell me what happened."

Sung Yu-ri recounted the events of yesterday, her voice trembling with sobs. It turned out that after Shen Fang and the others left, Sung Yu-ri and the others also left. As soon as she returned, her fiancé questioned her about where she had been, and Sung Yu-ri had to lie.

At first, Sung Yu-ri wanted to deny it because she did go to the bar to drink, but she didn't do anything. Shen Fang didn't touch her or do anything; at most, he just glanced at her and had a drink. She initially denied it because she didn't want her fiancé to know about it, and Shen Fang was a really important person.

However, because of this lie, Sung Yu-ri's fiancé later produced photos of her entering the private room. There were also photos of Sung Yu-ri smiling and saying goodbye to Shen Fang, which were slightly misaligned, showing the two chatting and laughing. The photos did look rather ambiguous.

Well, although it's quite dramatic, it seems that it really was because of him that he got into trouble.

"Well, so what if we broke up? You're so pretty, why would you need a man?"

"But, but I gave him all my savings to invest, and he said he wouldn't give me a single penny of it, waaaaaah!" Sung Yu-ri sobbed, feeling utterly wronged.

Last night she came to see Shen Fang, firstly to clear up this misunderstanding—you said I went to be with a man, since you don't believe me, I'll show you; secondly, she wanted to find someone to rely on. Shen Fang is so powerful, and a media mogul, she'll need someone to support her in the future.

After hearing this, Shen Fang smiled slightly: "So it turns out it wasn't my amazing charm that made me stand out; I just got a bargain."

Sung Yu-ri was crying her eyes out when she punched Chen Fang.

"You're making fun of me!!!"

"Alright, this isn't that simple. Don't cry. I'll handle it for you. I'll get every penny back for you."

Sung Yu-ri immediately stopped crying: "How can I accept this?"

Shen Fang flicked Cheng Youli's forehead with his finger: "Money-grubber."

"That was my savings of more than 10 years."

Shen Fang pulled Cheng Youli into his arms.

"First of all, it's very strange that your fiancé took the photos. Secondly, how did he know you were in that private room? You know, this was arranged by Lee Soo-man; he wouldn't leak something like this. Also, you invested your money with him; do you even know whether that money made a profit or a loss?"

Sung Yu-ri was stunned when she heard this. Right, how did he know I went to SK Bar, and how did he coincidentally take photos of me entering the private room and seeing Shen Fang off? She was fully disguised.

"Some things are better left unsaid. This was premeditated. Did you know that your money was going to lose you money?"

"We made a profit, a good return. We were even planning to buy a villa in Myeongdong a while ago. We also planned to buy a villa there when we travel to the United States."

"Then think about whether you haven't seen your fiancé often lately. When you try to contact him, he says he's busy or on a business trip, and sometimes you can't get through on the phone."

Sung Yu-ri nodded quickly: "Yes, yes, it's been like this for the past two months."

"The truth is out. Your fiancé is having an affair. As for your breakup, he planned it all along to get leverage over you and make you spend your money recklessly."

"What should I do? How can I get my money back?"

Shen Fang pinched Cheng Youli's little face: "Don't you want to get back together with him?"

Sung Yu-ri rolled her eyes at Chen Fang: "I've already gone this far with you, why would I reply to him? Would you be willing to eat dried radish after eating abalone? Besides, you said he's scheming to have someone else in his life, what good would it do for me to go and get back together with him?"

"You're pretty smart, aren't you? Why would you give him all your assets?"

Cheng Yuli......

"Can you please stop asking this question? I'm so ashamed of my stupidity."

“This is not difficult. I will let Kim Soo-beom handle it. In South Korea, the chaebols call the shots. I have no interest in dealing with such small fry.”

After saying that, he kissed Sung Yu-ri's red lips, stood up, and took out a bank card from his pocket: "There is 5 million US dollars in this card. Take it for protection. In the future, I will ask Kim Soo-beom and SM Entertainment to take good care of you while you are in Korea. You should re-sign your contract with SM."

Sung Yu-ri blankly accepted Shen Fang's bank card. 5 million US dollars?! But Shen Fang's words left Sung Yu-ri bewildered. Re-sign with SM?

"I've already transitioned into an actor. You want me to go back to being an idol???"

In South Korea, idols and actors are not on the same level. In the eyes of people in the entertainment industry, idols are just low-level playthings.
