"……#*&……#"
"Hmm, it's a call from the leader of the Happy Group, I'll go take it!"
Jin Aenam looked at the name on the caller ID and said to Quan Baolan and the others, then ran outside to take the call.
"Happy, is everything okay? You didn't look too good just now!"
On the other end of the phone, Li Huan's voice was somewhat low as he said, "Help me contact Bai Xiangyong, I'm going to his bar tonight!"
Jin Aenam was taken aback, her expression becoming much more serious, and she asked, "Happy, what's going on? Are you sure you want to find him?"
"Um, okay, let's not talk about it now, we'll discuss it when we meet tonight!"
"Beep beep beep!"
Jin Aenam frowned as she hung up the phone. Seeing Bai Xiangyong wasn't a big deal, but if Li Huan was looking for Bai Xiangyong, it meant there was real trouble. This naturally made Jin Aenam worried about her friend.
After thinking for a moment, she picked up her phone and dialed a number.
……………………
The fall of the Southern Dong faction in Seoul's Seo-gu five years ago caused quite a stir, especially around Hongdae, which seemed to become a no-go zone for the underworld.
The dissolution of the Peace Guardians five years ago was very sudden; the members were completely caught off guard, and Li Huan disappeared from their sight.
But like Li Huan's will, without a leader, the Peace Guardians really did disband, leaving only some students from the same school or area to help each other.
At Hongik High School, some people made a different choice. Perhaps because the leader's background was rather special, with no family and no ties, he ultimately chose a dark path.
In just three years, a special organization centered around Hongdae was established in Seoul's Seo-gu. Unlike the Southern Dong faction and other organizations, the later-formed White Dove Group was not complicated. Their business included legitimate operations like bars, and the rest was just security.
One could say they were the least like a gang in all of Seoul. If anything, they were more like high-level bodyguards.
But if any other organization tried to extend its tentacles into this area, they would face fierce attacks. Sometimes, the White Dove Group was more trustworthy than the Seoul police in Hongdae.
But in reality, the White Dove Group couldn't really be called a gang.
………………
Hongdae at night is a world of the young, with various club activities everywhere. Especially during the monthly club nights, it's a paradise of madness, and many of the beautiful women here are college students.
The White Dove Bar is a famous place on Hongdae's East Street, often packed to the brim.
At 8:30 PM, a black Hyundai stopped by the roadside. The car door opened, and Li Huan, dressed in a black suit, and the Jin brothers appeared at the entrance of the White Dove Bar.
Just two meters away, a man dressed like a futuristic warrior, wearing leather gloves and with long hair, like a rock youth, walked over excitedly.
"Brother Happy!"
Seeing the long-haired futuristic warrior walk over excitedly, as if to give a hug, Li Huan quickly pushed Jin Aishi out of the way and embraced the futuristic warrior.
"What the hell, Bai Xiangyong!" Jin Aishi quickly pushed the guy away, then shouted in embarrassment and anger.
"Damn, I'm not doing anything, Brother Happy, you're the one who hasn't contacted us for years. Why are you hanging out with these two guys?" Bai Xiangyong, who looked younger than the three of them, suddenly said in a very unhappy tone, like a child who hadn't grown up. This made Li Huan a bit curious, as this junior didn't match the image he had in his mind. Wasn't this junior supposed to be very cool?
"Damn, Bai Xiangyong, we are your seniors and we're a year older than you. Don't think you're so cool just because you're the leader of the White Dove Group. We're not afraid of you!" Jin Aenam glared and said, looking very unhappy.
Bai Xiangyong ignored the brothers' angry glares and looked at Li Huan with excitement.
Li Huan was also a bit moved. He never thought that the once timid and bookish junior would take such a path.
But thinking about it, the White Dove Group, if viewed without prejudice, was actually a social version of the Peace Guardians.
"It's been a long time, Xiangyong. Let's go to your bar and take a look!" Li Huan took a few steps forward, then patted Bai Xiangyong's shoulder and smiled.
Bai Xiangyong nodded excitedly, his eyes slightly red. Although Bai Xiangyong now had many brothers under him, to be honest, their interactions were very normal. Their main business wasn't anything illegal, and because of the special nature of the White Dove Group, Bai Xiangyong had even met the chief of the Seo-gu police department and received some hints.
After all, such a harmonious gang greatly reduced the crime rate in Seo-gu, didn't disturb the public, and didn't engage in illegal activities. Who wouldn't like such harmony?
So the members of the White Dove Group lived like ordinary people, working part-time, doing business, and striving for their future. At night, they continued their side jobs.
In Seo-gu, they were a very special group.
And the White Dove Group's success was all thanks to Bai Xiangyong, this 22-year-old boy, who turned the dark side of Seo-gu into a rare haven.
To walk resolutely in the darkness and not lose direction during the crazy betrayal period, Bai Xiangyong was most grateful to Li Huan, the senior who helped him learn to resist, gain confidence, and understand the meaning of protection.
Time always passes without leaving a trace, but before you know it, it has covered a long distance.
"Let's go, we must all get drunk tonight!!" Bai Xiangyong nodded with a touch of emotion and said excitedly.
Then the four of them entered the bar.
The interior of the bar was very modern. As soon as they entered the door, they heard the music inside. Li Huan hadn't been to such a place in a long time. Walking up the stairs and through the door downstairs, a wave of heat hit them.
It seemed there was a performance today. Not far away, a DJ was guiding the crowd's mood, and some people were performing on stage. The young men and women below were having a great time.
Bai Xiangyong led Li Huan and the others to a corner booth and brought over a lot of good wine.
Listening to the noisy sounds nearby, Li Huan suddenly felt it was too chaotic. Perhaps because of the changes over the years, Li Huan didn't really like such an atmosphere.
Looking at Bai Xiangyong, who was mixing drinks, and the Jin brothers who had run into the crowd to have fun, Li Huan said to Bai Xiangyong, "Xiangyong, to be honest, I came here today because I need your help!"
Bai Xiangyong, who was excitedly mixing his signature 'Blazing Youth,' turned his head when he heard Li Huan's words. Seeing Li Huan's serious expression, his own face became more sincere.
"Brother Happy, just say it. I'll do it without hesitation!" Bai Xiangyong said solemnly, without any delay.
Li Huan wanted to say something about how loyal the kid was, but after thinking for a moment, he decided to get straight to the point: "Do you know the Choi family business, which operates in real estate?"
Bai Xiangyong looked serious... and shook his head.
Not knowing this, Li Huan was a bit speechless but continued, "Do you know Han Chae-young?"
Bai Xiangyong nodded quickly, looking a bit excited. Was he a fan?
"Han Chae-young's husband is Choi Dong-gun. I'm not sure if he's the heir to the Choi family business, but you just need to know that Choi Dong-gun's father is the current head of the Choi family business!"
"What do you want me to do, Brother Happy? If you want me to kill... I can't do that unless he's a heinous criminal!" Bai Xiangyong lowered his head, his voice weak. The reason he chose this path wasn't for money. If Jin Huan had come to hire him for a hit, he really couldn't do it.
But the latter part of his statement also showed that this young man wasn't as gentle as he seemed.
Li Huan was taken aback, then picked up the unfinished 'Blazing Youth' on the table and drank it in one gulp. He felt a warm sensation in his abdomen, and his throat burned.
"You're thinking too much. How could I ask you to kill someone? What do you take me for? What I need you to do is actually quite simple. Do you know about paparazzi?" Li Huan's face turned a bit red, and he loosened his collar, speaking a bit louder.
