The Wealthy Tycoon's Game of Life

Chapter 1564: Chapter 625: Unspoken Rules

Although Zhou Wang didn’t think much of this hotel, believing it was just run-of-the-mill and lacking in character.

But as the best hotel in Seoul, and even in the whole of Korea, and being the best room in the hotel, the visual experience within was undoubtedly impeccable.

Outside the arc-shaped floor-to-ceiling window occupying the entire southern wall, the myriad city lights and neon signs converged into a sprawling river of stars, with the winding traffic like glowing fish silently flowing towards the distance.

Wearing a Celine exclusive limited-edition coat, the only one of its kind in the world, Lisa stood at the edge of the hallway, her body slightly stiff.

The meticulously designed linear light strips emitted a warm yellow halo, gently outlining her silhouette and the contour of the ceiling. On the other side of the living room, the flames in the fireplace, used to denote luxury, crackled and danced, casting flickering lights on the face of the man lounging lazily on the sofa and on the glass of swaying red wine in his hand.

... Zhou Wang didn’t really know why he picked up the red wine, perhaps simply thinking it suited the atmosphere better.

Hmm, more cinematic glamour.

This scene should have been exquisite, but Lisa’s tense expression inadvertently spoiled the entire ambiance.

”Come here, and sit down.”

Zhou Wang thought for a moment and spoke in English, patting the sofa beside him.

These past two days, he had occasionally taken the time to learn a bit of Korean, but still at a half-baked level, and with no interpreter beside him now, he thought about it and switched to English.

Zhou Wang’s own English proficiency was just at the level of an ”average college student with basic English,” but he had used the system’s tool ”Yumi’s Magic Dictionary,” naturally acquiring the talent to master eight major world languages and greatly enhancing his learning ability for less common languages.

In fact, if he stayed in Korea a couple of days longer, Zhou Wang felt he wouldn’t need a translator and should be able to navigate this country smoothly.

However, it was fine communicating with Lisa now, since Lisa wasn’t Korean either, and as an international star, she might even be more comfortable speaking English.

Lisa pursed her lips, taking a deep breath in place. As someone seasoned in the entertainment world, though initially tense seeing only Zhou Wang in the room, she quickly composed herself, walking over and elegantly sitting down while maintaining a polite smile and responding in English:

”Chairman Zhou, you can just call me Lisa. I’m more accustomed to this name now.”

Zhou Wang called her ”Lalima,” which was her real name in Thailand, with a more complex surname, but indeed, it had been a long time since anyone called her that.

”Would you like a drink? I didn’t notice what kind of red wine it is, but the taste is quite good...”

Zhou Wang indicated with his glass at this moment.

”I’m sorry, Chairman Zhou, I’m not feeling well today.”

Lisa shook her head immediately.

Her caution was also within Zhou Wang’s expectations. Zhou Wang nodded, took a sip of his wine, and glanced at the Patek Philippe watch on his hand.

”Actually, it’s not too late, but I have to rush to another place, so let’s get straight to the point.”

Lisa was startled upon hearing this, but the tension in her heart relaxed a bit.

Today, when they saw Zhou Wang in the company lobby, although Zhou Wang didn’t say much, it was clear he was unhappy with Jenny and Rose’s absence. At that moment, Lisa and Jin Zhixiu were very apprehensive, fearing Zhou Wang might take out his unnamed anger on them.

Although because of the public opinion situation, they already lacked confidence, if the anger, originally to be shared among four, suddenly fell on just two, it would undoubtedly be much heavier for them to bear.

Fortunately, throughout the subsequent tour, Zhou Wang seemed to return to normal. After both Lisa and Jisoo canceled all their schedules today and spent a day apprehensively at the company, it appeared Zhou Wang had no intentions of causing trouble for them, which eased their minds considerably.

After dining with Jisoo, Lisa was about to go home for a beauty bath and a good night’s sleep, only to be found by Zhou Wang’s assistant Sura in the parking lot and ”invited” here.

”The Chairman wants to see you.”

No extra words, just these five words blocked all of Lisa’s refusals.

Lisa didn’t even have time to contact other higher-ups in the company and could only come to this famously renowned Shilla Hotel with unease.

When she saw it was indeed a hotel room with only Zhou Wang, three words naturally popped into Lisa’s mind...

”Unwritten rules.”

So Zhou Wang didn’t take revenge during the day because he had already arranged for nighttime?

Though indulging in wild thoughts, Lisa had no intention of easily yielding.

In the eyes of fans and even many in the industry, Lisa should be the most relaxed one in BlackPink.

Her dance moves were the hottest, with concert photos more than once capturing her revealing ”undergarments,” and she even participated in a famously daring show in Paris...

But Lisa didn’t dare say she remained pristine, yet her private life wasn’t as messy as many maliciously speculated.

Before fame, she was just an unremarkable foreign trainee, a bit dark and skinny at that time; the so-called unwritten rules of big shots weren’t even directed at her.
