That was truly unimaginable. Eunwoo was originally smart and diligent. He thought more about animals than anyone else, and if he had any deficiencies or didn’t know something, he would study it. Seolhee, who watched him closely, knew how hard he worked.
That Eunwoo would quit being a veterinarian? It was beyond imagination.
Looking at Seolhee’s surprised face, Eunwoo nodded as if to say that’s understandable.
“Surprised.”
“…A bit.”
“Sorry. The situation changed suddenly, and I made up my mind not long ago.”
“What’s going to happen? If you quit the hospital.”
Eunwoo, still staring at Seolhee’s hand that was on top of his own, tightened his grip on it.
“I’m planning to return to WS.”
“WS?”
Eunwoo’s grandfather was the founder of Wonseong Group, the precursor to Korea’s prestigious WS Group. Currently, Eunwoo’s father, Ok Kyung-il, served as the chairman of WS Group. Eunwoo also worked at Wonderful Land, a subsidiary of WS Hotel, for about a year. However, he had resigned and became a veterinarian at an animal hospital.
He claimed that business management didn’t suit him.
Not liking people but being close to animals—that was his reason. Hence, he said there was no chance he would go back.
“Yeah. I plan to return to WS Hotel.”
Why did he suddenly change his mind? Seolhee’s confused eyelashes trembled. Eunwoo calmly explained.
“Seolhee, I know you’ll be confused. I want to reform Wonderful Land. I feel like I’m the only suitable person for the job.”
And Eunwoo began to explain, in a hushed tone, why he had come to this decision.
⭐️⭐️⭐️
Wonderful Land had a large zoo. It was the largest zoo operated by a Korean private company.
It was also the third largest in Asia. While the amusement rides at Wonderful Land were attractive, many people also visited for the zoo.
When he graduated from veterinary school, it was almost taken for granted that he would enter Wonderful.
“If Eunwoo is a veterinarian, then he should take charge of Wonderful Land.”
There were many veterinarians working at the zoo. Beyond simply handling veterinary duties, many eventually participated in management. Eunwoo, following a similar path, was expected by his family to eventually take charge not only of Wonderful but also of WS Hotel.
However, working at the zoo turned out to be different from what was imagined.
Although he had studied various subjects during veterinary school and learned about various realities through field trips, reality was harsher.
Wonderful Land had a relatively good environment for a zoo. The facilities for raising animals were spacious, and they provided feed that closely resembled a natural diet. Many devices were in place to prevent animals from being startled by human noises.
However, most of the animals had mental illnesses.
The polar bear circled in one place all day long, and the giraffe shook its long neck from morning to night. These were illnesses caused by being exposed to people for too long in confined spaces.
Eunwoo wanted to change things, but no matter how much he was part of the owner’s family, there was nothing a rookie could do. The suffering only increased, so…
“I ran away cowardly.”
“Cowardly?”
At Seolhee’s words, he lowered his head.
“No, it’s cowardly.”
To change the organization, one had to stay in the organization. Even if it was difficult and exhausting, one had to stay.
But Eunwoo couldn’t do that. His honest confession cast a deep shadow over his face.
“But now, I feel prepared.”
He had long contemplated what to do. Even attending graduate school was part of that consideration.
What he was studying now was wildlife biology. He pondered how the animals in the zoo could lead the most natural lives.
“So, I’m going back to WS.”
“I see.”
“Surprised?”
“A bit.”
“Disappointed?”
“Disappointed?”
Seolhee’s eyes widened. She didn’t understand what he was saying.
What could be disappointing?
Eunwoo smiled wryly, lifting the corners of his mouth.
“You were curious about why I quit Wonderful.”
That was true. Since they started dating, Seolhee had been curious about that.
Wonderful was his family’s company, and she didn’t know why he worked as a locum tenens in a regular hospital. But now, after hearing, she could easily understand why Eunwoo had made that decision.
She looked at him. A cold breeze blew in the garden, brushing against the man’s face. His face showed no expression; his usual calm and resolute temperament was evident.
However,
The back of his hand under Seolhee’s hand was incredibly warm.
Beneath that cool and rational face, there was a heart warmer than anyone’s.
“Because of that reason, aren’t you disappointed?”
“Not at all. Rather… it’s so impressive, that’s the only thought that comes to mind.”
At Seolhee’s words, he chuckled. He shook his head, as if saying it was absurd.
“I’m not impressive… I’m not that kind of person. You just think too highly of me.”
“I’m right about that.”
She had watched him more than anyone else. Eunwoo was an impressive person, someone she wanted to learn from. Just looking at how much she had grown by his side was enough to tell.
At Seolhee’s words, Eunwoo lowered his head for a moment. A hesitating appearance, as if he wanted to say something but was hesitating. Seeing this, Seolhee tilted her head.
“Why?”
“Do you know why I wanted to go back?”
After quitting the company, becoming a veterinarian at a regular animal hospital, and then deciding to return to WS, the reason why he made that decision. When Eunwoo asked, Seolhee narrowed her eyebrows.
“Well, are you now sufficiently prepared?”
“No. The reason for leaving the animal hospital and going elsewhere is because of you.”
He whispered slowly. Eunwoo’s tone was like a refreshing autumn night, reaching Seolhee.
“Yoo Seolhee, because of you, I could take a step forward.”
“…”
“So, I hope you accept this.”
Eunwoo extended a square box. There was no hint of a smile on his face. Ok Eunwoo was truly sincere at this moment.

When Yu Shu was diagnosed with pregnancy, Yan Jin stared at his belly for a long time.
Covering his stomach, he muttered gloomily, “If you don’t like it, I’ll go get an abortion.”
“It’s not that I don’t like it.” Yan Jin hugged Yu Shu and said softly, “I just feel like I’m not human.”
Yu Shu comforted Yan Jin, “I was already an adult when we got together.”
Yan Jin hesitated, “But you won’t be of legal marriageable age even after giving birth to the child.”
At the same time, a flood of bullet comments appeared in the live streaming room that the two couldn’t see.
