Chapter 6

"Hey, Red Wolf, how have you been lately?" a carefree voice came from the phone.

Hearing this carefree voice, Li Shenglin felt genuinely happy. People need friends. Although he had been doing well this year, life was still too dull without the company of his two good friends. The caller was none other than Hong Canmin, who had caused a conflict in a nightclub back then. "Pervert, have you and Black Wolf been released?"

At Seoul's Cheongdam Middle School and Apgujeong High School, there has always been a legend about the Three Wolves:

Red Wolf, Li Shenglin, named for his fiery red hair and wolf head tattoo.

Black Wolf, Choi Ji-jung, who loved fighting and was ruthless.

Pervert, Hong Canmin, as the name suggests...

Li Shenglin and Choi Ji-jung became friends after a fight, and then Choi Ji-jung introduced him to Hong Canmin.

"Yeah, we've been released. Come out and let's have some fun, meet at the usual place!"

"Um, I'm not really free to go out... Why don't you two come to my place..."

"Damn, are you scared after being hospitalized?" Hong Canmin was obviously joking. Would Red Wolf be scared? It was more likely that a sow would climb a tree. The main reason was that he couldn't stand the atmosphere at Li Shenglin's house, a family of scholars. He felt uncomfortable, especially with a fierce little sister who would scold them every time they visited, saying they were corrupting her brother...

Li Shenglin knew why he said that and directly gave his current address, "I'm not living with my parents now, come over!"

"Living alone?"

"Um, sort of... two people..."

"Oh? Oh! I get it, we'll be over soon, hehe, you're quite something..."

Clearly, he was thinking the wrong thing...

...

An hour later, when Li Shenglin opened the door and saw the two men dressed neatly in suits, he wondered if the sun had risen in the west. Although their previous styles weren't as flashy as his, they were still delinquents. What had happened now?

And when Choi Ji-jung and Hong Canmin saw the "uncle" who opened the door, they politely bowed, "Sorry, wrong place, sorry for the disturbance!"

...

"Haha, what's with your new look? If the fans at school knew you turned into an uncle, I wonder if they'd jump off the building?"

Despite his neat appearance, Li Shenglin felt Hong Canmin was still a little punk at heart.

"Exactly!"

Choi Ji-jung, who usually only fought and didn't talk much, also started to mock people, having gone bad...

Do I have to say I have a mature mind? Or that I don't like my face being too handsome?

Although he didn't know the reason, seeing his good friend not wanting to answer, Hong Canmin had to change the subject, "Where is he?"

Li Shenglin didn't think much of it, "He's sleeping in the bedroom!" He got a thumbs up and a "I'm impressed" in return.

At this point, Li Shenglin finally realized their odd behavior and didn't bother to explain. He went straight to the bedroom and brought out Little Huhu, which was more effective than any explanation.

Seeing their two friends with mouths wide open, Li Shenglin smiled mischievously and introduced them, "My son, Li Rumei, nickname, Huhu!"

...

After a while, Hong Canmin listened to Li Shenglin's explanation, "I never thought your past year would be so eventful, and you even have a son!"

The usually quiet Choi Ji-jung also nodded in agreement.

Li Shenglin waved his hand, "Let's not talk about me. Why are you dressed like this?"

The two looked at each other, "We were planning to meet your wife and leave a good impression. Also, after last year's incident and graduating from high school, our families want us to go out and gain some experience in society. We need to dress formally. Since you also need to earn money for your child, we thought the three of us could start a business together and achieve something..."

Hong Canmin got more and more excited, not noticing Li Shenglin's silence. It was Choi Ji-jung who noticed and tugged at his sleeve, "What's wrong, Shenglin?"

When it came to serious matters, he and Choi Ji-jung called Li Shenglin "Brother."

"Ah, my family wants me to go to university. I might get into Sungkyunkwan in November. Also, I'm a father now and don't want to mess around anymore..." Li Shenglin felt a bit embarrassed, thinking he might be letting his brothers down.

"Brother Shenglin, you're amazing. Getting into Sungkyunkwan is impressive. But you're right, we don't plan to fight all day either. It's meaningless. We wanted to do something proper and thought of you. We didn't know how to persuade you, but now it's easier. Don't worry, we won't take up your time as a new dad, ha ha! Besides, your family has given you some startup funds, so our business can start now!"

Seeing his two friends full of confidence, Li Shenglin became interested. No one ever complained about having too much money, "Tell me, what do you plan to do?"

"High-interest loans!"

Li Shenglin almost spat out blood, "Is this what you call a proper job?" He was a bit angry, thinking they were making fun of him.

Hong Canmin slapped his head, "I forgot you spent a lot of time abroad as a kid and might not know. In Korea, high-interest loans are legal!"

Although he thought China was already strange enough, he never expected the three East Asian neighbors to be even more unusual. One was closed to the outside world, one was a paradise for the mafia, and the other had legal high-interest loans...

Although legal high-interest loans were a good way to make money, there were issues, "What if the money isn't paid back?"

As soon as he said that, he saw his two friends looking at him as if he were an idiot, "Hire professionals to collect the debts! The fees aren't high!"

Seeing their superior attitude, Li Shenglin suddenly felt his past life was not worth much. He seemed to have done a lot of such things...

Curious, Li Shenglin still had a question, "Why don't those professionals lend money themselves?"

"Hehe, although high-interest loans are legal, not everyone can do it. If our families didn't support us, we wouldn't dare to do it either!"

Seeing Li Shenglin's puzzled look, Hong Canmin had to reveal the truth. He pointed at Choi Ji-jung, "His grandfather is the CEO of a construction company. Do you think projects are won through bidding? They were fought for. His father is now carrying on the family business, and his uncle runs a trading company, which is used for smuggling and money laundering.

As for my family, starting from my grandfather, we've been involved in the entertainment industry, mainly for money laundering..."

Damn, two third-generation criminals...

Li Shenglin was never a good person. Now that there was such a safe, reliable, and legal way to make money, he had no reason not to do it, "How much do I need to put in?"

"Hehe, we originally planned for each of us to put in 100 million, but since you're a big shot now, how about 300 million? That makes 500 million in total, and we can start big!"

Li Shenglin nodded, "No problem!"

"Ha ha, great! I guarantee we'll break even in six months and double our money in a year!"

After sending off his two friends who were busy with their business, Li Shenglin was worried about the remaining 200 million. Putting the money in the bank was the worst option. What should he do with it?

What? Not worried about your 300 million being taken by your friends? Come on, we're all people with money. This is clearly just a practice run, a bit of fun...

After putting Huhu to sleep, Li Shenglin decided to go downstairs for a cup of coffee to clear his head. Taking care of the child every day was almost driving him crazy, and he found a way to spend the 200 million...
