Chapter 1

This... this... is a story that takes place on Earth.

……………………

"Why don't you just die? If an apology were useful, my dad would have crawled out of his grave!" In a high-end ward of a private hospital in the suburbs of Seoul, a young man with a bandaged head and a handsome face, but with a somewhat swollen nose, glared at the young girl in a black coat and jeans and the middle-aged man of about forty, and shouted angrily.

The morning's tranquility was thus shattered.

Lee Huanle felt that he was truly the unluckiest person. Car accidents kept happening; two years ago, a car accident took his adoptive parents, and this time, he almost lost his life. Fortunately, at the critical moment, his agile reflexes allowed him to swerve the steering wheel, avoiding a direct collision with a black minivan, which allowed him to retain enough strength to curse.

The most bizarre thing was that he seemed to see a strange golden light shoot towards him at the time. He thought it might have been a hallucination caused by panic.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it was indeed our fault. It was too dark, and we were in a hurry to get to the shooting location, so..." The middle-aged man in a blue down jacket, who was stout and corpulent, hurriedly apologized. However, the pulsating veins on his forehead revealed that he was not in a good mood. This kid was too impolite.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" The pretty girl beside him also bowed in apology.

Lee Huanle felt that since he was adopted by the Korean couple at the age of ten, nothing had gone well.

Born in 1986, Lee Huanle was already 22 years old and had just graduated from university last year.

He once had a happy family, but a car accident made him an orphan. Since none of his relatives were willing to take him in, he was sent to an orphanage.

Two years later, a Korean couple came to the orphanage, intending to adopt a boy.

According to the experience of the 'seniors' in the orphanage, smiling foolishly and acting cute to win favor was an absolute god-like skill. At the time, with his ultra-cute face, Lee Huanle had such a talent.

In the end, he succeeded, but when he heard the couple say things like 'sikmda,' 'ilmita,' and 'ahniya,' he instantly turned to stone.

Are they Eskimos or Ethiopians? Am I being sold to a foreign country?

Thinking he would have a new home, Lee Huanle was brought to the unfamiliar country of Korea.

Ten years passed, and two years ago, another car accident took his adoptive parents. He wondered if he was a cursed star, as to why such tragedies kept happening to the people who became his parents.

Feeling disheartened, Lee Huanle had planned to return to China, as there was nothing left for him here except for his increasingly distant relationship with his sister. However, his adoptive father's dying request kept him firmly tied to Korea.

This year was the Olympic year, and after watching the Olympics in Beijing, the depressed Lee Huanle felt somewhat better. But then... another car accident happened.

His impression of Koreans, except for the elderly, was never good, especially the young people in school who thought they were invincible and owned the universe, singing songs like "My home is always open, the Earth runs in..."

Since the age of 11, with the title of "Chinese orphan," Lee Huanle had gone through over a thousand 'battles,' defeating countless disgusting seniors and school bullies, and ignoring the seniority system in school countless times. In the end...

No university in Seoul was willing to admit the notorious Lee Huanle, so he had to go to Yeungnam University in Daegu, which was still a branch campus.

So... for Koreans, Lee Huanle really disliked them from the bottom of his heart, at least most of them. How could he be happy after being hit by a car this morning, especially after breaking up with his girlfriend a few days ago?

Lee Huanle, known as the "Toxic Tongue School Bully" of Yeungnam University, looked at the two bowing people and said, "Didn't you hear me? If apologies were useful, my dad would have come back. I seriously suspect you of attempting to murder someone. I want to find a journalist, a lawyer, the police, and the sky... cough, anyway, I don't want to talk to you anymore. Please help me call the police. This accident must be handled seriously!"

After saying this, Lee Huanle lay down with difficulty, reaching out with his strong hand to touch his head, his face slightly calmer.

The car accident... had made him lose his family twice. Encountering another car accident, how could Lee Huanle's heart be calm?

"It's all that old man's fault. If he hadn't insisted I take over that broken company and keep it from collapsing, I would have left Korea long ago. How would I have been hit by these two guys? But... that girl looks somewhat familiar."

Thinking about it, Lee Huanle raised his head, his eyes landing on the girl's face, which was somewhat flustered. But in an instant...

"Ah!!!"

"What's wrong? What's wrong? Are you okay?"

"Doctor, doctor!"

Seeing Lee Huanle clutching his head and thrashing on the bed, the middle-aged man was terrified and shouted. He had seen many things in his life, and at this moment, Lee Huanle's painful and conflicted expression, with the veins on his forehead bulging, was definitely not an act.

The girl was directly frightened into a stupor...

"Get away, what the hell is this memory of a shut-in, I don't need it!!"

Lee Huanle clutched his head and shouted in Chinese, scaring the doctors and nurses who rushed over. They quickly restrained his limbs and injected him with a sedative, and soon Lee Huanle fell into a deep sleep.

The middle-aged man hurriedly explained to the doctors that he had suddenly become like this, but the doctors were at a loss and could only push Lee Huanle out for further examination, hoping nothing serious would happen.

………………

Mnet Media, officially known as CJMnet Media, is a Korean entertainment company under the Korean conglomerate CJ Group (CJ), headquartered in Seoul. The company's business scope is extensive, including TV channels and programs, music providers, award ceremonies, and more.

At this moment, on the street outside the Mnet Media building in Gangnam's Samsung-dong, two tall girls wearing sunglasses were standing by the roadside, talking.

"Min-kyung, do you want me to go with you?" The woman with the brown sunglasses, who looked mature and had long black hair, asked the girl with the black sunglasses, looking somewhat worried.

Beside her was a girl wearing a white casual jacket, casual pants, and sneakers, with long hair and a tall, cute figure. At this moment, the girl's face looked somewhat anxious.

"No, thank you, Hae-ri-ssi. If my manager finds me, tell him I went to the hospital. I'll be very careful and come back tonight!" Min-kyung, seeing a taxi finally arrive, quickly hailed it and said goodbye to the woman who looked much older than her, then gave the driver a destination and left.

Hae-ri-ssi watched the taxi drive away and sighed, thinking, "I hope they don't argue again!"

………………

In an office on the eighth floor of a building in Yeongdeungpo-gu.

"Bang!!"

A fat man with a large head and a standard Korean face, wearing a suit, heavily 'placed' the teacup on the table, causing the two people beside him to frown.

"You, the president, really have a big ego, making me wait for two hours. Your Safe company seems too good for me!" The fat man suddenly said, then stood up, pretending to leave, a sneer on his face.

"Don't be angry, President Huang, don't be angry. Our president..." The middle-aged man with a 2-8 part hairstyle, who was about forty, quickly changed his expression and called out humbly.

However, before he could finish, President Huang interrupted him.

"Your president came from Gyeongsang-do, right? Look at the time, even if he came from Busan, he should have arrived by now!"

"Something might have happened. I'll call him again, President Huang, please don't be angry!" The 2-8 part man said anxiously.

"No need. We small agents shouldn't get involved in this 'high-tech' invention. Your company's products are so advanced, they will surely sell well. I'll take my leave, hoping for future cooperation!" President Huang said and walked towards the office door, and the young man beside him couldn't stop him.

"Bang!"

The loud door slam made the young man and the 2-8 part man collapse onto the sofa.

"Damn!!!"

"Bang!"

The young man with ear-length hair, who looked about 24 or 25, angrily threw the teacup on the table, shattering it against the wall.

"What does he want to do? Does he really want to see Uncle Kang's company collapse!" The young man grabbed his hair in frustration, calling out sadly.

The 2-8 part man sighed, took out a lighter and a cigarette from his pocket, and started smoking.

The office was abnormally silent. After a while, the 2-8 part man said, "Call Min-kyung and ask if she knows where Lee Huanle is!"

"Better not be sleeping or something, or I'll kill him!" The young man took out his phone and called the girl named Min-kyung.

After a moment, he hung up, looking stunned.

"What's wrong? Did that kid really forget about the meeting with the agent today?" The 2-8 part man, seeing the young man's dazed expression, asked angrily.

"No... that guy was in a car accident!"

………………

At 1 PM, Lee Huanle woke up in the hospital, looking at the girl standing by his bed, who looked much prettier, and said mockingly, "Oh~ isn't this our big star, Kang Min-kyung? What made you think of coming to see your big brother?"
