She picked up the phone on the bedside table. There were text messages and several missed calls from her manager, Kim Jong-do. The text message read, "Gen-young, where are you? I'll come pick you up."
Moon Geun-young almost cried when she thought of Song Yi's tenderness last night. She was like Cinderella who found a crystal shoe. She thought she had turned into a princess and had a romantic encounter with the prince she had a crush on. Now the magic has failed, the love has disappeared, and the dream should be over.
She noticed a note on the bedside, which Song Yi had left for her. She picked it up and said, "Genying, I'm going out for a run. There is red bean and barley porridge and washed fruits in the kitchen. You can eat them first. We will fly to Japan at noon. The film promotion work will be suspended for two days. You can take a good rest for a few days and recover your energy. Just think of it as a reward for your hard work in rehearsing the dance."
Moon Geun-young's mood suddenly turned from gloomy to cheerful. She first called her agent Kim Jong-do and said that she needed to rest for a few days and asked for leave.
Kim Jong-do had obviously learned about Moon Geun-young's movements from Kim Min-sook, and sighed helplessly, "Is it really worth it for such a man? The two of you are destined to have no future. To put it bluntly, Song Yi just wants to play with you."
Moon Geun-young responded sternly, "Uncle, I have always respected you. But I am an adult now, so please don't interfere with my private life in the name of doing good for me."
"It's impossible for me to live my whole life without dating or getting married. If you still insist on slandering Song Yi in front of me, then I really have to consider asking the company to change my agent," said Moon Geun-young.
When Jin Zhongdao heard what Wen Genying said, he felt that Wen Genying was now a little obsessed. He did not blame Wen Genying, but only blamed the culprit Song Yi. Wen Genying used to listen to him very much, but now she wants to replace him as her agent for Song Yi.
"Genying, when your mother entrusted you to me, I had the responsibility to protect you and keep you away from the darkness of the entertainment industry. You are not even an adult yet, and you are having an affair with a married man. How can I explain this to your mother?" Kim Jong-dao's words were full of pain.
Wen Genying was unmoved, "Uncle Zhongdao, are you trying to use my mother's name to blackmail me?"
"You are my agent. You help me manage my schedule. The company and I will provide you with corresponding compensation. I do respect you as a family member, but you cannot put yourself in the right position and really discipline me as your daughter. You should know that my parents are in good health."
"If you think that mentioning Mom can scare me, then you are wrong. Even if Mom knew that I spent the night with Song Yi last night, it wouldn't change anything. On the contrary, it's you who will lose the trust of both me and Mom at the same time. Can you still keep your job as an agent?"
"Eighteen or nineteen is the age to enjoy love. I am active in the entertainment industry, and the people of my age that I interact with the most are male artists. However, every time other male artists ask me for their contact information, you never ask for my opinion and directly refuse in the name of the company."
"When I went to a party with my classmates, you would keep an eye on me in every detail, fearing that I would have contact with male classmates. You even wanted to take over my inschool account to see who I followed and who I frequently contacted in the inschool."
"Sometimes, I really doubt whether you are really afraid that I will get hurt, or whether you are just using the name of caring for me to satisfy your desire for control."
"My parents didn't agree with me becoming an actor at first, but you convinced my mom to let me act in Autumn in My Heart. I am always grateful for your support."
"But as my agent, if you regard yourself as my savior and me as a personal property that you can control, you are making a big mistake."
"My grandfather was a guerrilla fighter. He was sentenced to death twice for fighting against the dictatorship, but this did not shake his will to fight."
"Uncle Zhong Dao, when you came to interfere with my social circle, I had already thought it through. I must find a man with a powerful background to date so that you can no longer interfere with my private life. At that time, I will set my sights on Song Yi."
"Song Yi is handsome, rich, and not too old. Do you know why I insisted on filming "The Innocence of a Dancing Girl" in Bianzhou City? I just wanted to go to Song Yi's birthplace to learn more about his past. For this reason, I even went to Bianzhou University and visited Song Yi's father, Vice President Song."
"The more I know about Song Yi, the more I can discover his strengths. He is like a mystery, making people fascinated by him and making women throw themselves at him like moths to a flame. Even if there was no Song Yi, there would be Zhang Yi and Wang Yi. What happened last night was actually inevitable."
"Uncle, women are very sensitive. When I was filming "The Innocence of a Dancing Girl", you noticed the changes in my figure. You may also have noticed that the little girl you watched grow up transformed into a young and beautiful woman overnight."
"I'm afraid that your possessiveness will continue to control my private life and prevent me from falling in love, and my parents who are unaware of the situation will support your decision. As an independent woman, I, Moon Geun-young, have never belonged to you in the past, present, and future, so give up your unrealistic ideas! From now on, you must put me first at work. You have to ask for my opinion on which TV series to star in, which endorsements to take, and where to go for commercial performances. Dear Uncle Jong-do, do you understand?" Moon Geun-young ordered calmly.
After hearing what Moon Geun-young said, Kim Jong-do was struck by lightning. He coughed a few times and felt much older. He thought he had concealed it well, but Moon Geun-young had already seen through it.
Thinking of this, his resentment towards Song Yi deepened. He felt like a hard-working gardener who found a precious flower seed and then took good care of it, watering it, fertilizing it, and providing it with sufficient light every day.
This flower finally bloomed and was about to present its most beautiful appearance, but it was plucked away mercilessly by a robber. Now this flower actually says that it followed others voluntarily.
Song Yi, you have slept with so many beautiful female stars, why did you snatch Wen Genying from me? Jin Zhongdao was so angry that he was dying. Thinking of the delicate Wen Genying enjoying herself under Song Yi last night, this pain made Jin Zhongdao's face distorted.
Kim Jong-do calmed down. He couldn't bear to leave Moon Geun-young now. Moon Geun-young's momentum was rising and she became a hot new actress in the Korean film industry. If Moon Geun-young changed her agent now, wouldn't his previous efforts be in vain?
He suppressed his anger, adjusted his mood, and said to Wen Geun-young: "Geun-young, since you are an adult, you can definitely make your own decisions. Uncle will be your assistant from now on, and I will listen to you on work matters."
When Moon Geun-young heard what Kim Jong-do said, she didn't want to break up with him. After all, Kim Jong-do was a senior manager in the industry and was from the same group as SA Manager President Kim Min-sook. If it weren't for her, Kim Jong-do would have already set up his own entertainment management company.
When Song Yi returned to the apartment, Wen Genying was sitting in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, staring at the park in the community.
Seeing Wen Genying's innocent look, Song Yi couldn't help but touch her little head, "Do you like this community? I have picked out a 340-square-meter apartment for you. You can move in and be my neighbor in a few days."
Wen Genying turned around and hugged Song Yi, "Oppa, do you want to support me? I don't need a house, I can afford it myself, but I hope you can spend more time with me."
Song Yi smiled. "What nonsense! I'm going to ask you to be the spokesperson for The One Apartment. As a reward, the company will give you an apartment."
"SA Construction has bought another piece of land in Hannam-dong and plans to build The One: Hannam Apartment. Having a celebrity like you move in will also help the sales of the apartment. Are you willing to do me this favor?" Song Yi hugged Moon Geun-young and his hands slid into her belly.
"Oppa, go take a shower first. You smell of sweat, it's so smelly." Moon Geun-young's face was filled with a happy smile.
However, Song Yi started to act like a rogue. He looked at his watch and said, "We will have lunch on the plane later. It's still early now. Can you go to the bathroom and rub my back for me?" Song Yi picked up Moon Geun-young. Moon Geun-young laughed like a silver bell. She kept beating Song Yi's back with her hands, asking Song Yi to put her down.
When Moon Geun-young and Song Yi boarded the Tae Hee private plane, Moon Geun-young felt her legs were still weak. Song Yi was going to Japan to discuss work, and took Moon Geun-young with him to relax.
As an experienced person, Choi Sun-hee saw that Moon Geun-young's face was red and she needed help to walk. She couldn't help but say, "Chairman, Geun-young is still young and has just experienced sex. You should be more kind to her. Geun-young, you too, how can you let him do whatever he wants?"
Song Yi's trip to Japan was relatively low-key, with only Choi Sun-hee and Kang Soo-na accompanying him. The flight attendant was still Lee Bo-na.
Since Song Yi encountered an assassination attempt at Seoul University, he has paid special attention to the protection of his personal safety. Li Baona's personnel relationship has been transferred from Korean Air to SA Group, and she and her colleagues are dedicated to providing services for the Tae Hee.
Lee Bo Na also met Kim Hee Won and her daughter Song Won Young on the Tae Hee last month. April is the final month of the Premier League, and Manchester United and Chelsea are competing fiercely for the Premier League title that season.
As the chairman of Manchester United Club, Kim Hee-won must fly back to Manchester to cheer for the team at the critical moment.
When Li Baona saw Song Yuanying with a baby voice, her heart melted at once. Song Yuanying, who was over one year old, could not only walk, but also call people, and her little mouth was so sweet. When Li Baona saw Song Yuanying's face shape, she immediately knew that Song Yuanying was the daughter of Song Yi and Kim Hee-won, because she perfectly inherited the advantages of their appearance, and she would grow up to be a super beauty like Kim Tae-hee.
On the plane, Song Won-young asked Kim Hee-won, "Why didn't Dad go back to England with us?"
"Because Dad still has work to do, he also has to take care of my aunt and brother. When he's done, he'll go to England to pick us up and bring us back to Seoul." Kim Hee-won explained. She answered very frankly, and she didn't try to avoid Lee Bo-na.
It was then that Lee Bo-na learned that both Kim Hee-won and Kim Tae-hee had married Song Yi, that Kim Hee-won had given birth to a daughter for Song Yi, and that Kim Tae-hee had given birth to a son for Song Yi. She was a little bit unacceptable at first, after all, Kim Tae-hee was a white, rich, beautiful woman, and a top student at Seoul University, and she was willing to share a husband with her two sisters.
However, when Li Baona remembered that SA Group was already one of the top ten conglomerates in South Korea, and Song Yi, who was less than 30 years old, was already a billionaire with a net worth of billions of dollars. In the whole of South Korea, except for Chen Jianxi's unmarried youngest daughter Chen Xinyu, there was no other woman who could match Song Yi, right? Moon Geun-young came to Song Yi's rescue, "It's not the president's fault. I took the initiative this morning. I didn't expect my physique to be so weak." Moon Geun-young's voice became smaller and smaller, and she lowered her head like a primary school student who had made a mistake.
Cui Shanji felt angry and amused. She certainly knew how strong Song Yi was physically. She begged Song Yi for mercy many times in bed.
"Just spoil him. It's still a while before we get to Tokyo. If you're tired, go to the bedroom at the back of the plane and take a nap," Choi Sun-hee said.
Jiang Xiu Na, who was standing next to her, blushed when she heard this and couldn't help but spit at Song Yi. She knew that Song Yi had sent her back to the company yesterday for no good reason, and he had indeed targeted the national sister Moon Geun Young.
Moon Geun-young felt that she had no appetite and was indeed a little tired, so she went to the bedroom to rest. Lee Bo-na, who was standing beside her, helped Moon Geun-young to the bedroom.
Cui Shanji sighed, "This former colleague Xiyuan is really a smart person. She is smart, perceptive, and tight-lipped. You can consider giving her a bigger bonus at the end of the year. It's a pity for such a person to be a flight attendant. You can transfer her to the group's administrative department to work."
Jiang Xiu Na, Song Yi, and Cui Shan Ji are now familiar with each other. She joked with Cui Shan Ji, "Sister Shan Ji, the reason why Sister Xi Yuan poached Li Bao Na from Korean Air to SA Group was to let the chairman have an eye for her. If you put Li Bao Na in the administrative department, where will you find such a beautiful stewardess to replace Li Bao Na?"
"Our chairman has always had a preference for secretary uniforms, stewardess uniforms, and nurse uniforms. When Hee Won wore a stewardess uniform in the office, his eyes lit up. Maybe he has watched too many Japanese drama movies, so he likes to go to Japan." Choi Sun Hee joked.
Seeing that his past was about to be exposed by Cui Shanji, Song Yi was a little angry and said, "Sister Shanji, if you continue to expose my past like this, I will borrow a stewardess uniform from Li Baona and let you change into it first."
Cui Shanji was not afraid, and she puffed out her proud chest, "I'll wear it. I have such a good figure, why should I be afraid of wearing a stewardess uniform? Come on, Xiu Na, let's go change together, and then make him envious, so that he can see but not eat."
Jiang Xiu Na refused again and again. If she and Choi Sun Hee changed into the Korean Air stewardess uniform, wouldn't Song Yi be so happy?
When Moon Geun-young woke up, the Tae Hee had already landed at Haneda International Airport. Song Yi and his party left the airport through a special security check channel. Outside the airport, a Rolls-Royce car took Song Yi to the AXA Tokyo Luxury Resort in the suburbs of Tokyo, which is also one of the SA Group's industries in Japan.
The reason why Song Yi planned to build a luxury resort in Japan was actually inspired by Song Hye Kyo.
When Song Yi, Song Hye Kyo and Jun Ji Hyun went on vacation to a luxury resort in Ise-Shima National Park, they preferred this kind of resort with a very high degree of privacy.
At that time, Song Hye Kyo was still active in Japan, and "Winter Sonata" was popular in Japan, and Song Hye Kyo also made a lot of money in Japan. In 2003, during the Iraq War, Song Yi made a fortune by speculating in oil and gold futures. At that time, Song Yi was looking for land in the suburbs of Tokyo, and then prepared to build a luxury resort that was not open to the public to entertain Song Yi's political and business friends.
Boasting stunning views of the city skyline, this resort combines traditional Japanese inn décor with modern amenities.
Guests staying at the resort can enjoy a variety of dining options, including a Michelin-starred restaurant, as well as a spa, fitness center and a swimming pool for each villa.
The luxury of the AXA Tokyo Luxury Resort is one level higher than the Elysian Ski Resort in the suburbs of Seoul. The AXA Tokyo Luxury Resort has hosted many Korean congressmen. Since Song Yuxi came to power, Song Yi has used power, money and beauty to weave a network of relationships around him.
This network of relationships will not disappear with Song Yuxi's departure. No matter who succeeds the South Korean president, if they want to take action against the SA Group, they must think twice. They must consider whether they can withstand the crazy revenge of this huge network of relationships.
Of course, as the former head of the AXA Tokyo Luxury Resort project, Song Yi did not treat Song Hye Kyo unfairly. He did give Song Hye Kyo 3% of the shares as promised in advance. Now this part of the shares alone is worth 600 million yen.
Moon Geun-young had been to Elysian Ski Resort before, but this was her first time at ANSA Tokyo. She immediately fell in love with this quiet resort in the middle of a bustling city.
Choi Sun-hee, who had been here several times, took Moon Geun-young and Kang Soo-na to the spa center for a SPA after completing the check-in procedures.
"Our chairman has an appointment with a guest to discuss work today. Since the content of the conversation is confidential, we will not disturb him. After we recover, we will have dinner with our chairman." Cui Shanji has already made arrangements.
At this time, a beautiful woman in the resort found Song Yi. She was wearing a gorgeous kimono and had her hair tied up in a classic bun, revealing her smooth and white neck, exuding the traditional gentle beauty of a Japanese woman.
She bent down and bowed to Song Yi, "President, the guests have arrived."
Moon Geun-young looked at the woman's profile, which always gave her a sense of familiarity. When she entered the spa, she finally remembered. She pulled Choi Sun-hee's arm and asked excitedly, "Sister Sun-hee, was that woman Noriko Sakai just now? How did she appear in this resort?"
Choi Sun-hee signaled Moon Geun-young to calm down, "Okay, okay, she is Noriko Sakai, and she is also the person in charge of this resort. After she retired from the entertainment industry this year, she will be managing this resort full-time for our president."
Moon Geun-young felt a little sorry. "Noriko Sakai is only 34 years old this year. She released an album and starred in a movie last year. Is there any hidden reason why she is willing to manage this resort for the president?"
When Jiang Xiu Na heard what Wen Geun Young said, she was secretly shocked. Wen Geun Young, this girl, relied on Song Yi's favor and dared to say anything.
Cui Shanji didn't care. "Do you know who was the first person in charge of this resort?"
Moon Geun-young shook her head, "I don't know."
Cui Shanji solved the suspense, "The first person in charge was Song Hye Kyo. She was active in Japan at the time. Our chairman entrusted Song Hye Kyo to invest tens of billions of yen and then built the AXA Tokyo luxury resort."
"Song Hye Kyo later returned to Korea to perform in the TV series "Full House" with Rain, so she could no longer continue to be responsible for managing the resort."
"Song Hye Kyo also met many celebrities in the entertainment industry in Japan. Later, she introduced Noriko Sakai to the president. After a rigorous investigation, the president agreed to let Noriko Sakai take over Song Hye Kyo's job. After Noriko Sakai got the job, she announced her official retirement from the film industry."
"The scale of ANSA Tokyo Resort is no less than that of a luxury five-star hotel. Being solely responsible for such a luxury resort is much more comfortable than for her to stay in the entertainment industry as an artist. Noriko Sakai is eager for this job, so how could there be any hidden story?" Choi Sun-hee explained.
Moon Geun-young's determination to continue to be an artist was shaken. After all, Noriko Sakai was Moon Geun-young's idol when she was a child. The reason why Moon Geun-young chose to be an actress was also influenced by Noriko Sakai.
In the mid-1990s, the romantic dramas "Star Coin" and "Star Coin 2" starring Noriko Sakai, Takenouchi Yutaka, Osawa Takao, and Hosokawa Naomi were popular in South Korea, setting off a wave of popularity. The influence of this TV series is equivalent to the popularity of "Winter Sonata" in Japan. Moon Geun-young can still sing the theme song "Green Rabbit" sung by Noriko Sakai. The sales of this single are close to one million, and it won the Outstanding Work Award at the Japan Record Awards.
What Moon Geun-young couldn't accept was that Noriko Sakai, a popular actress and singer, chose to retire just to run the resort for Song Yi. Perhaps in Song Yi's eyes, Moon Geun-young's childhood idol Noriko Sakai was just a high-class mama-san.
Noriko Sakai walked slowly forward in wooden clogs. This was Song Yi's first vacation in Tokyo this year, and she would definitely put some effort into entertaining her boss.
"The girl who came with the president today seemed to recognize me. Is she also an artist?" Noriko Sakai asked softly.
Song Yi was not surprised. "Fa Zi is also very popular in Korea, so it's not surprising that she recognized you. Her name is Moon Geun-young, and she played the role of Eun-hee in "Autumn in My Heart" before."
Noriko Sakai nodded. "She doesn't look very old. She should be about the same age as my daughter Yuika-chan who worked with me in Fight last year."
In 2004, Noriko Sakai starred in Fight with actor Naoto Ogata. She played a 20-year-old early-married mother in the drama. The producer arranged a 15-year-old daughter for her to take care of. The role of the daughter was played by 17-year-old new actress Yuika. Noriko Sakai played the role of the middle-aged mother in this drama very vividly.
Song Yi nodded, "She is indeed not very old. She just turned 18. If it was during the Meiji era, Fuzi's daughter would probably be about the same age as Genying."
Noriko Sakai shook her head. "I only have one disobedient son, who is already twelve this year. I wish I could have such an obedient daughter. When we were filming Fight last year, Yuika-chan left a very good impression on me. Although we played mother and daughter in the film, we get along like sisters in real life."
Song Yi smiled and said, "I'll introduce you to each other when I'm done with my work and have time. Since Genying recognized you, maybe she's your fan. Fazi, you've been managing AXA Tokyo for half a year. Have you adapted to it now?"
Noriko Sakai smiled warmly, "Thank you for your concern, President. Everything went well. Although there were some guests who got drunk and made trouble and didn't want to abide by the resort's rules, they behaved better after I mentioned the resort's background."
Song Yi nodded, "That's right. If there are any drunk guests making trouble in the future, throw them into the pool to sober them up. I have carefully selected and trained the concierge team of the resort at great expense. Their artistic accomplishment is no less than that of some singing and dancing troupes. Their purpose is to provide the guests of the resort with the best audio-visual enjoyment."
"For men, what they can't get, they want more. That's why so many dignitaries flock to AXA Tokyo."
"In order to preserve the reputation of AXA Tokyo, two bottom lines must not be broken. First, no paid escorts. Second, the concierge staff must not be forced."
"Of course, it is possible that the concierge staff may have fallen in love with some of the guests who often come here, and that they may have climbed up the social ladder and wanted to marry into a wealthy family. This is her own business, and I will not interfere. Whether she has worked for five years or has married and left, I will give her a generous gift so that everyone can part ways in peace."
"They have dedicated their best years of youth to AXA Tokyo, and AXA Tokyo certainly appreciates their efforts. If you, as the person in charge, fail to protect their personal safety, then you are derelict in your duty," Song Yi reminded.
Noriko Sakai looked serious and nodded, "President, I understand."
Song Yi continued to suggest, "You might as well take a look at the protocol group to see if there are any good talents worth cultivating, and release her to be trained as an artist. SA will provide resource support."
"If the members of AXA Tokyo's concierge team become well-known artists, this gimmick will be enough to ensure that AXA Tokyo will remain at the top of the luxury resorts in the Tokyo area for a long time," said Song Yi.
When Noriko Sakai heard Song Yi mention that SA Group was willing to provide resources support in the entertainment industry, she was moved. So, if she left AXA Tokyo Resort and made a comeback in the future, she could also rely on the support of SA Group? She took Song Yi to his exclusive wooden villa. Song Yi pushed open the wooden door and saw Masayoshi Son sitting next to the coffee table.
Song Yi and Son Masayoshi were like old friends reuniting. He walked up to Son Masayoshi and shook hands with him warmly, "Sun-san, long time no see."
Thank you all for your monthly tickets. Today is Friday, and I wish you all a happy weekend in advance.
