Rebirth of an Idle Noblewoman || LK Adaptation

Yang Haotian felt like he had gone nuts, standing not too far from where Peniel was. He didn't expect that Youngjae's little friends would know Peniel, and it seemed like they weren't some random commoners either. Peniel's head was lowered, looking at his phone. A strange look crossed his face after that, and he looked at Youngjae with something akin to pity in his face, not saying a word.

Yang Haotian couldn't stand it anymore, his face paling. What was the meaning of that? Was he planning to go back on their collaboration plans?

Thinking of this, Yang Haotian couldn't help but turn around to the other businessmen. There were the other people who were interested in the engine, he had not thought them to be significant since Peniel was around, but seeing that the man may no longer be interested, he obviously needed to shift his attention to them now.

Those business partners glanced at each other. Being businessmen in the Imperial Capital, they naturally knew of Nine Heavens, and of course the president of the company. Although they could only see Lisa's side profile from where they were standing, it was easy to know who it was, she had a very recognizable face after all.

Not to mention, the attitude that Peniel was displaying.

What other girl in the Imperial Capital would Peniel treat so respectfully? There was only the one from Nine Heavens, of course.

"Sorry, Manager Yang. Our company will retract from the collaboration this time." A middle-aged man looked at Lisa, fear and awe on his face. After saying that, he left in a hurry.

Seeing this, the others too started to leave in the same hurried manner.

They were all people with extensive experience in the business industry, how could they not see that something fishy was going on between the two brothers? Adding on that Lisa was smack dab in the middle of it, even if you gave them millions of courage, they didn't want the girl as their opponent! They had to leave, now, otherwise they could be wiped out with just a flick of a finger if they caught her eyes!

Suddenly, only Yang Haotian's supervisor was left by his side.

The supervisor looked in Youngjae's direction with hesitance in his eyes.

"Supervisor, the Yang family and the engine is already in my hands, how can Youngjae be more powerful than me?" Yang Haotian bit back his frustration as he looked towards the supervisor.

The man thought about Youngjae's cynical character, and then thought about Yang Haotian's words, and he instantly calmed down.

That's right, Youngjae was just an ant on the ground, how could he begin to compare with Yang Haotian?

Yang Haotian was not an idiot either, seeing all the people's behavior, he knew that Youngjae's little friend must be a terrifying existence, and was not someone simple. He gritted his teeth, looking at Youngjae with a dark expression. "Sh*tty dog, you think you can drag me down just because you found a good backing?"

Yang Haotian turned and left with a foul expression on his face.

He still wasn't aware what kind of existence he had provoked.

Lisa, who was immersed in devouring her lotus root, raised her head suddenly. Her slender fingers picked up her teacup to take a sip. "I say, haven't you stared enough?"

Youngjae still had a disbelieving expression on his face. "No, I still can't wrap my head around it. Are you really the great god?" And she was also acquainted with Peniel?

Shouldn't people who play games be losers?

Forget that Rosé was 'Miss Perfect', why was the man who knew For A Millenium personally also the same? Youngjae was so shocked by the revelations that he was just at a loss for words. He just continued to sip his glass of water.
