Chapter 58

On the way, while driving, Li Shenglin listened to Hong Canmin teasing Xiao Huhu and narrating the story of that person...

Luo Bo, male, 33 years old, had once been a well-known artist's agent. But since Li Shenglin wouldn't know him anyway, he just skipped it... He was very capable, had a wide network of connections, and his character was also commendable!

Actually, this person's personality was not very suitable for the entertainment industry. He was a very straightforward person and would be at a disadvantage in this world of deceit and intrigue. However, everyone has a good side, and Luo Bo actually did quite well.

But fate is unpredictable. At the age of 30, his two-year-old child died of illness, and his wife fell into depression. Last year, she was hospitalized due to long-term depression. With no choice, he had to quit his job to take care of his wife. The two illnesses left their once comfortable family in dire straits...

It's not that no one was willing to help him. For example, Hong Canmin's uncle, Hong Shengcheng, wanted to help him. On one hand, this person was capable, and on the other hand, he wanted to give him a hand.

But this person was too stubborn and didn't seem to want to owe others too much. In the end, Hong Shengcheng had no choice but to introduce him to Hong Canmin and gave him the lowest interest rate. To be honest, Hong Canmin understood his uncle's intentions and never urged for the money, but this person still paid on time, no matter what...

As a result, he sold his house, and his wife eventually passed away. Now, he just rented a place and worked odd jobs... The worst part was that he even refused Hong Shengcheng's offer, saying he didn't want to accept others' favors...

What a peculiar person! Listening to Hong Canmin's story, Li Shenglin couldn't help but sigh. But fate had indeed been too cruel to this person!

When they arrived, sure enough, the place was in a sorry state, even worse than KARA's dorm...

Before they entered, they heard a lively little girl's voice. It had to be said that the soundproofing in this place was terrible, "Wow, Uncle Luo, come and look! There's actually a Ferrari parked downstairs. I didn't expect someone living in such a place to drive a Ferrari! It's true, you're just like Uncle Luo, a person who keeps things hidden!"

"I'm not keeping anything hidden. Haven't you seen me making paper boxes here?" His tone was still quite positive, not as dejected as Li Shenglin had imagined. Li Shenglin appreciated this; a man shouldn't dwell on the past but should bravely face the present and the future!

"But Minya, why did you come to Seoul from Incheon alone? Aren't your parents worried?"

"It's a holiday, and they know I'm coming to see you, so they're at ease. Besides, I'm going to high school in Seoul, so I need to check out the place first!"

Li Shenglin stopped Hong Canmin from knocking on the door. He wanted to listen more and learn more about this person named Luo Bo... It felt a bit like eavesdropping, or was it just gossip?

"Why did you suddenly want to come to Seoul?"

"My vocal teacher decided not to run a school anymore and plans to start an entertainment company. He invited me to be a trainee, and my parents and I agreed, so... I'll need Uncle Luo's help in the future!"

"Someone who makes paper boxes, how can I help you?" Luo Bo's words seemed to carry a hint of teasing. Despite his stubbornness, he didn't seem to be a rigid person...

"Uncle Luo, didn't you used to be an agent? When I debut, you can be my agent. I'll definitely be even more famous than your previous artists!" This little girl named Minya seemed to have a bit of a stubborn streak too. The two of them together were quite amusing...

"HONG~HONG!" Xiao Huhu, who had been playing with Li Shenglin's collar, seemed to be able to mimic a simple syllable. They couldn't listen any longer and had to knock on the door...

"It's Mr. Hong, right? Hello. If I'm not mistaken, today isn't the day for repayment, is it?" Li Shenglin finally saw Luo Bo, the person he had only heard about.

He wasn't short, about 180 cm tall, and quite handsome. Despite knowing his difficult situation, it was clear that he cared about his appearance, which made a good impression. Li Shenglin couldn't help but reflect on his own past actions, but he still consoled himself that the friends he made that way were true friends...

Before Li Shenglin could speak, the little girl named Minya got upset. Pouting her thin lips and trying to make her laughing eyes look fierce, she said, "Are you the bad people who lent Uncle Luo high-interest loans when Auntie was sick? Get out, all of you! Uncle Luo is making paper boxes, he has no money for you bad people. When I become a big star, I'll help him pay it back!"

The little girl seemed to be about the same age as Ji Yeon. If it were a normal person, they might dismiss her as a child, but these two knew about Ji Yeon's feelings for Li Shenglin, so they naturally thought of the scene where Ji Yeon confessed...

But how could he be considered Ji Yeon's oppa? These two were definitely an uncle and a loli...

So Li Shenglin didn't treat her like a child, "I think you've misunderstood. We're here to discuss something important with your Uncle Luo!"

It was rare for an adult to treat her as an equal. Fang Minya was a bit happy. Moreover, the other party had brought a child, and their attire didn't seem like that of debt collectors, but Uncle Luo had clearly mentioned the repayment...

Hong Canmin then directly said to Luo Bo, "Brother Luo, I've already said you don't need to repay the money! Besides, the amount you've repaid has already exceeded the principal. Let it go!"

Fang Minya felt her brain couldn't keep up. What kind of development was this? The debtor insisted on repaying, and the loan shark didn't want to collect...

"No, a man's word is his bond. Besides, we have a written agreement. You can't go back on it!"

Fang Minya was speechless. Her Uncle Luo was really too stubborn. Although she liked him for this, it was still a lot of money, "Uncle..."

"Men speak, women should keep quiet!"

Fang Minya was happy. Uncle Luo finally treated her as a woman, not a child...

"Alright, if you insist on repaying, that's fine. But do you want to take a job I'm offering?" Hong Canmin put aside his unrealistic thoughts...

"I've already told your uncle, I won't accept his favors!"

"It's not from my uncle, it's from me. I want to offer you a job. The person next to me needs an agent!"

"You're entering the entertainment industry? Why?" Luo Bo looked at Li Shenglin curiously.

"Do you know me?"

"Yes, the author of 'Little Dimple' and 'Today You Will Marry Me'!" When it came to his field of expertise, Luo Bo naturally exuded confidence, but he seemed a bit hesitant. Finally, he seemed to confirm, "Due to taking care of my late wife, I haven't kept up with many things. You seem to have made a cameo in 'Cafe Prince No. 1'?"

There was no need to add more. This was definitely a black history! Looking at Hong Canmin's twitching mouth, Li Shenglin thought to himself! But this guy's eyes were really sharp, he could even recognize him! And his memory was so good...

PS: Luo Bo is played by a book friend, Snail Radish. As for Fang Minya... Should I say Radish is a die-hard fan of Minya?
