The doctor spoke with a voice filled with military discipline.
“Oh, hello! Director Jo from Hanse Hospital called for some reason…”
Hanse Hospital?
Jaeein looked at Dohyuk with surprised eyes.
Hanse Hospital was one of the top comprehensive hospitals in the country, where it often took months to get an appointment.
The doctor, explaining Hyuna’s condition in detail over the phone, gradually brightened his expression.
“Yes, yes, we will take care of it. Please rest assured.”
After concluding the call, the doctor handed the phone back to Dohyuk.
“Director Jo, thank you. See you in Seoul.”
Dohyuk greeted politely and ended the call.
The doctor, with a surprised look, asked Dohyuk, “How do you know Director Jo?”
“It just happened. So, what’s the plan?”
“We decided to transfer her to Seoul by medical helicopter in an hour.”
“By helicopter?”
As Jaeein’s eyes widened, the doctor nodded and continued, “Yes, Hanse Hospital offered their support. Once you arrive there, they will conduct detailed examinations, and the surgery is scheduled for next week. You can trust Hanse Hospital’s pediatric cardiology; it’s the best in the country.”
Relieved by the doctor’s optimistic tone, Jaeein let out a sigh of relief.
“That’s fortunate. We need to find the surgery cost somehow, though.”
“Don’t worry about that. Director Jo arranged for the surgery through the Hanse Hospital Foundation’s donation fund.”
“Really?”
Even hearing it with her own ears, Jaeein couldn’t believe it. She looked at Dohyuk with a bewildered expression.
Dohyuk, calmly listening to the doctor’s words, seemed to be taking it all in.
“Team Leader, thank you so much for helping Hyuna.”
Returning to the ward, Jaeein bowed her head in gratitude towards Dohyuk.
Dohyuk simply smiled without saying a word.
Jaeein was deeply grateful for his help, yet her heart felt heavy.
This incident made her realize the gap between her world and the world Dohyuk lived in.
Now that Jaeein had confirmed her feelings for him, she only had eyes for Dohyuk, with no thoughts about his surroundings.
Suddenly, she recalled the time when Seoyeon faced difficulties due to the difference in social status with Minwoo.
“It’s better for people from similar backgrounds to be together if they want to live comfortably. The differences can be a headache. Jaeein, you should also consider that.”
Even when trying to forget, Seoyeon’s advice kept echoing in Jaeein’s ears.
She couldn’t estimate how high the mountain to overcome with Dohyuk, who was much different from her, would be.
“Can I be with Mr. Dohyuk until the end?”
Suddenly, the thought of facing a world without Dohyuk became frightening.
In just a few days, Jaeein had fallen deeply for him.
Suppressing the rising anxiety, Jaeein looked at Dohyuk with a composed expression.
Dohyuk, looking at Hyuna with a gentle smile, said, “Her sleeping face is like an angel.”
“Indeed.”
Seeing the peacefully sleeping Hyuna, gratitude welled up deep in Jaeein’s heart.
“Yes, having hope that Hyuna can get better is enough. That’s sufficient.”
And at this moment, Dohyuk was right in front of her.
Not wanting to ruin the present happiness due to fear of the uncertain future, Jaeein leaned close to Dohyuk’s ear.
“Team Leader, what should I do?”
“What?”
“I’m starting to like you more and more.”
“……!”
After a moment of being frozen, Dohyuk soon pulled Jaeein into a tight embrace.
“What to do? Take responsibility for a lifetime, strategically!”
The teasing laughter held overflowing happiness.
“Oh, I almost forgot! Team Leader, let me go for a moment.”
Jaeein stepped out of Dohyuk’s embrace and rummaged through her bag.
Then, with a face full of regret, she suddenly handed something to Dohyuk.
It was a flat box wrapped in red paper.
“It’s not much, but it’s a Christmas present.”
“Did you prepare this for me?”
Dohyuk eagerly tore open the wrapping with a childlike expression.
Inside the box was a charcoal gray scarf with a subtle pattern.
“I wanted to knit it myself, but I didn’t have time.”
“Thank you! I love it.”
A delighted smile filled his face as he wrapped the scarf around himself.
“I’m relieved. I hastily prepared it, and I was worried you might not like it.”
“Seo Jaein gave it to you, it can’t be like that. You must have had a pink flower-patterned one or something.”
Jaein burst into laughter at Dohyuk’s teasing.
“What should I do? My gift is in Seoul.”
“It’s okay. You’ve already given me a lot.”
Dohyuk gently touched Jaein’s hand and said, “Seo Jaein’s the best gift in my life. So, no matter how much you give, I won’t be able to repay you in a lifetime.”
“Team Leader…”
With trembling hands, Jaein held Dohyuk’s hand.
The two looked into each other’s eyes and immersed themselves in an incomparably happy moment.
On Christmas Eve, Seojin Industries’ grand year-end party and anniversary celebration were in full swing at the Seojin Mansion.
Throughout the bustling venue, prominent figures from various fields were noticeable.

Short scene 2:
Wei Jing Mo stared intently at Feng Bai Su who was about to go out, wanting to say, “Be careful on the road.”
Before he could speak, Feng Bai Su suddenly bent down and bit his cheek.
Her peach blossom eyes were full of disdain: “Tsk! You’re so clingy!”
Wei Jing Mo: “…”
