Chapter Thirty-Three: Emotional Turmoil and Distress

  "This is my first heart move in this life, and it's also a love at first sight." Zhang Chengyuan felt that he was somewhat absurd, a person who had once sworn to live forever as a cultivator now actually having feelings for a woman. It seemed that the temptation of the mortal world was indeed strong, and his state of mind had already changed greatly from his past life. He no longer deserved the title of "Cultivator". But this was also good, since he couldn't cultivate in this life, it was better to experience all the emotions of the mortal world and taste the true love of a ordinary person rather than living a muddled life after his dreams were shattered.

  After Kim Tae-hee left, Park Byung-ryul looked at Jang Sung-won with a thoughtful expression and teased, "Sung-won, are you enchanted by her?" It was the first time Park Byung-ryul had seen Jang Sung-won so focused on a girl. He had thought that Jang Sung-won was still young and didn't understand these romantic feelings yet. Although Jang Sung-won had met many beautiful women in the entertainment industry, he had never been moved by any of them, only slightly curious at most.

  "Seems like it," Zhang Chengyuan said calmly. "When I see her, I have an inexplicable feeling, and even my heart rate speeds up significantly." Knowing that his earlier loss of composure wouldn't fool the old fox Park Byung-ryul, Zhang Chengyuan didn't bother to deny it. After all, Park wasn't a gossip columnist and wouldn't spread the word.

  Park Byeong-ryeol sighed and said with some regret, "What a pity, what a pity she already has a boyfriend. You'd better find another target."

  Before signing the contract, Park Byung-ryul had thoroughly understood Kim Tae-hee's various situations, including some emotional and family background privacy. Due to the current entertainment industry economic system, Kim Tae-hee could only truthfully report, otherwise, she would not be able to prevent sudden events from happening or handle them in a timely and proper manner after they occurred. Of course, Park Byung-ryul was not that kind of black-hearted boss who controlled artists by grasping their handles, as long as it did not affect the company's legitimate interests, those secrets related to the artist's life and death would never be asked about by him. Moreover, Kim Tae-hee was not a commoner's daughter, with her family background and talent, she was not someone who could be controlled at will by a small company owner like Park Byung-ryul.

  Zhang Chengyuan felt a little regret after hearing Park Hyung-ryeol's words, and remained silent for a long time before sighing: "Forget it, since that's the case, I'll just treat her as a good older sister." The words sounded casual, but his heart was reluctant.

  Bae Byung-seok also saw this and consoled him, "At a young age, you should prioritize your career and not waste too much time and energy on romance. Besides, with your conditions, are you worried that you can't find a satisfactory girlfriend? How about Fin.K.L's Lee Hyori, Sung Yu-ri, etc.? Your relationship with them is very good, right? In my opinion, they won't lose to Tae Hee either."

  Kim Tae-hee's appearance can be said to be stunning, but it is not truly flawless. There are no perfect beauties in this world, only in the eyes of a lover does the perfect other half exist.

  With a discerning eye, Kim Tae-hee's teeth are neat and white, but slightly protruding. When she closes her mouth, it can't be seen, but when she smiles, this small flaw is revealed. Moreover, Kim Tae-hee is only 162cm tall, although her body proportions are well-balanced and elegant enough to cover up this point, if she stands next to Jang Sung-won who is over 185cm tall, even wearing high heels of over 10cm, she still looks short.

  Compared to Kim Tae-hee, Sung Yu-ri may be slightly inferior in terms of facial features distribution, but she has a clear advantage in height and her teeth are also healthier than Kim Tae-hee's.

  Of course, Sung Yu-ri also has one or two small flaws that ordinary people can't notice. However, no matter what, Kim Tae-hee and Sung Yu-ri are absolutely true beauties, and it's really hard to compare who is more outstanding between true beauties, as they will have aspects where they surpass each other, and aspects where they lose to each other. Therefore, it's really hard to distinguish who is prettier between Kim Tae-hee and Sung Yu-ri, and there's no need to necessarily compare them to determine a winner.

  Sometimes men fall in love with women more based on feeling rather than holding a beauty contest in their heart, it's not about who is prettier by a little bit, and then liking that person!

  Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. To Zhang Chengyuan, Kim Tae-hee was the most perfect one. Some minor flaws were negligible and couldn't reduce her charm at all. On the contrary, they made Zhang Chengyuan feel that Kim Tae-hee wasn't an unattainable goddess but a real person who could be approached. As for Seong Yu-ri and Lee Hyori, weren't they his sisters? How could he compare them with Kim Tae-hee at this time?

  Jang Sung-won looked at Park Byung-ryul with some anger and said, "That's my sister, how did you bring them into this? Alright, let's not talk about this anymore."

  "Alright, alright, I won't say it anymore, I won't say it anymore." Park Byung-ryul smiled and said, not getting angry at Jang Sung-won's glare, treating him like a child throwing a tantrum.

  Jang Sung-won bid farewell and headed home, sitting in the taxi, he couldn't help but think; "Hyo-ri noona, Joo-hyun noona, Lee Jin noona, Yoo-ri noona, did I really just see them as sisters? Didn't I have any other thoughts about them? Not to mention Joo-hyun noona, with her personality she probably wouldn't like someone younger than her; Lee Jin noona is a devout believer, pure-hearted and simple-minded, maybe in the future she'll only marry another devout believer and won't like someone like me who's a playboy...

  Huh? Am I a flirt? How could I think that of myself, do I subconsciously want to have multiple girlfriends and enjoy the benefits? Maybe I really do have such thoughts! If Hye-ri noona and Yoo-ri noona were to leave my side and get other boyfriends, would I be angry? Would I even fly into a rage and chase their boyfriends away? It seems like I would! I should! I definitely would!

  "Haeri sister is so charming and beautiful, Yoo Ri sister is so lovely and pretty, they are also so considerate and loving to me, how can I bear to let them leave me? Hmm, Jin Ah sister, she's not bad either, if I couldn't see her sincere smile, life would be so dull! And there's Joo Hyun sister, although she's a bit chubby, it's okay, I'll help her lose weight, if I couldn't eat the food she cooks, I will definitely miss her..."

  After a while, he thought again: "How can I be so greedy? This one also wants that one to want, no matter which one is abandoned, it seems that I am reluctant to give up. If it were in the previous life's Song Dynasty, as long as my sisters are willing, I think I will marry a few more. But modern Korean law won't let me have my way! Alas! This is frustrating!

  If my divine technique can be greatly improved, and I can split out 7 or 8 divine bodies at any time, which will not lose to ordinary people's physical body after being tempered, then I would not want to worry about who to be with, and I can marry all the sisters. However, based on the current spiritual energy density, it is impossible to achieve this! So what should I do now? Should I first marry Xiaoli sister, live for a year or two, and then divorce her, then marry Zhu Huan sister, and after another year or two, divorce again, and use the same method to marry Li Zhen sister and Youli sister?

  "Divorce, marriage, divorce, marriage... If I keep repeating this process, won't I be the most shameless scoundrel under heaven? No, no, absolutely not! How about becoming a citizen of another country? I've heard that some African country's law allows men to marry dozens of wives. But as a proud citizen of China, it was already humiliating enough for me to become a subject of a small country like Korea, and now I'm supposed to become a savage from a barbarian land? How can this be..."

  Back home, Zhang Chengyuan lay exhausted on his bed, still turning over in his mind the hot-headed self-reproach about shaving his head, and not even thinking about whether Li Xiaoli, Cheng Youli and others would be willing or not. Perhaps if they knew about Zhang Chengyuan's shameless thoughts, they would grit their teeth and smash his skull to pieces.
