Unaware of Hyun-oh’s visit, Tae-sang looked a bit surprised.
“I apologize. I will come back later.”
“No, it’s fine. I barged in uninvited. Please come in,” Hyun-oh invited Secretary Kim as if it were his own office.
After receiving Tae-sang’s subtle nod, Secretary Kim stepped into the office.
“Then, I’ll briefly mention only the important matters. First, regarding the policy communication meeting scheduled for tomorrow…”
Her monotone voice softly filled the office. She swiftly scanned her tablet PC, organizing the week’s schedule, which was, as usual, tightly packed with no room for even a needle.
“…the matter has already been addressed with Hanseong Airlines for the necessary documents. That’s all.”
With a thud, Secretary Kim closed her tablet PC cover and looked up with a polite face. She thought she had given a perfect briefing, but Tae-sang’s expression seemed somewhat unconvinced.
Did she miss something? Secretary Kim’s eyes moved quickly.
“Secretary Kim.”
“Yes.”
“About the schedule adjustment for this Saturday, how’s that coming along?”
“Ah, yes. As you instructed, I managed it. Only the most crucial appointments are in the morning, and the rest are canceled. You should arrive at the school around 1 pm.”
“School?”
Hyun-oh interjected suddenly. Secretary Kim closed her mouth tightly like a clam, just lifting the corners of her lips slightly.
“I’ll leave you two to talk. I’ll be on my way out.”
Her evasive response seemed even more suspicious. Hyun-oh turned his gaze towards Tae-sang, but the latter’s stoic face didn’t seem to give away any answers.
“…….”
Cha Tae-sang pushing work to the backburner was unheard of.
Hyun-oh smiled inwardly as he watched Secretary Kim leave. It seemed he had a lot to ask Tae-sang today.
At Air Korea Tower near Incheon Airport.
Dajeong stared angrily at the clock.
With about thirty minutes left until standby ended, she hoped to not get called for any flight so she could have dinner with Tae-sang. Filled with such grand dreams, the remaining time seemed to pass incredibly slowly.
She glanced at the clock again, and a flight attendant next to her got up. The company magazine ‘Skyway’ lay where she had been sitting.
‘Maybe reading this will help…’
Wanting to distract herself, Dajeong picked up the magazine lightly. As she flipped through the pages, they rustled softly in her hands.
“Oh…”
She had just randomly opened the magazine, but as if by fate, a page featuring a large photo of Tae-sang appeared.
Dajeong read the bold headline first.
‘Vice President Cha Tae-sang Promotes Internal Communication Through a Seminar.’
“Internal communication…?”
She felt like she was onto something. Her eyes moved quickly across the page.
Dajeong looked a bit surprised, seemingly unaware of Hyun-oh’s visit.
“Sorry, I’ll come back later.”
“No, don’t leave. I barged in uninvited. Please, come in,” Hyun-oh graciously invited Secretary Kim as if it were his own office.
After a quick glance and nod from Tae-sang, Secretary Kim stepped inside.
“I’ll just mention the important details briefly. First, about the policy communication meeting scheduled for tomorrow…”
Her voice echoed softly in the office. Secretary Kim swiftly skimmed through her tablet PC, arranging the week’s tightly packed schedule.
“…the matter is in progress with Hanseong Airlines for the required documents. That’s all.”
Closing her tablet cover with a thud, Secretary Kim looked up pleasantly, though Tae-sang’s expression seemed slightly unconvinced.
Was something missing? Secretary Kim’s eyes quickly scanned her thoughts.
“Secretary Kim.”
“Yes?”
Tae-sang’s deep call made her respond promptly.
“What about the schedule adjustment for this Saturday I asked for?”
“Yes, I’ve arranged it as you instructed. Only the essential appointments are in the morning, and the rest are canceled. You should arrive at the school by around 1 pm.”
“School?”
Hyun-oh abruptly joined the conversation. Secretary Kim, mouth closed tight, merely lifted the corners of her lips slightly.
“I’ll leave you two to your conversation. I’ll take my leave now.”
Evading an answer seemed more suspicious. Hyun-oh turned his gaze to Tae-sang, whose stoic face didn’t look like it would give anything away.
“…….”
Cha Tae-sang putting work aside was unheard of.
Smiling inwardly, Hyun-oh watched Secretary Kim leave. It seemed he had a lot to ask Tae-sang today.
At the Air Korea Tower near Incheon Airport, Dajeong glared at the clock.
With only about thirty minutes left in her standby, if she wasn’t called for a flight, she could have dinner with Tae-sang. Fueled by this grand hope, the time seemed to crawl.
Glancing at the clock again, she noticed a flight attendant getting up from her seat, leaving behind the company magazine ‘Skyway.’
‘Maybe this will help distract me…’
Dajeong picked up the magazine, flipping through the pages, which rustled softly in her hands.
“Oh…”
Randomly opening the magazine, she was met with a page adorned with Tae-sang’s face.
Male lead is a Love-Obsessed Merman
When he discovers she has gone, he risks everything to pursue her on land, enduring agonizing pain to transform his tail into human legs…
One-line summary: Male lead chases female lead. The male lead’s love is a bit sick, an invincible love brain.
Synopsis
During a voyage at sea, Jiang Yang accidentally captures a merman.
Servant: I heard that mermen are fierce and brutal.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman obediently rubbing her palm like a puppy: “You call this fierce and brutal?”
Servant: I heard that mermen have no human nature.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman with wet puppy eyes, obsessively calling her ‘A Yang’ like a childish infant: “You call this having no human nature?”
With great difficulty, she releases the merman back into the sea and returns to shore.
Who would have thought that in less than half a month, the merman, who should have been freely wandering in the South China Sea, would shed his scales, endure the pain of losing his tail, transform into human legs, and come ashore to find her?
He kneels at her feet, rubbing her palm, with merman tears rolling down: “A Yang, don’t abandon me.”
