Once the casual greetings were over, the event would start, focusing on the history and vision of the Ocean Shipping and Han Sung Construction merger and acquisition.
Chairman Jo, who had personally orchestrated everything, was at the center of the event.
So, watch.
Whom are you trying to start a war against?
Of course, Taejoon and Seorin were impressive, but Chairman Jo thought that they were born with the highest privileges. Therefore, he was fundamentally different from them, having achieved everything with his bare hands.
He wouldn’t yield.
To anyone.
“I need to go to the restroom for a moment before the event starts.”
“Yes. Yes, of course, Chairman Jo.”
After bidding farewell to Assemblyman Jung, Chairman Jo headed to the restroom. He wanted to prepare in advance because it could become inconvenient to move once the event started.
While trying to attend to personal matters and wash his hands, at that moment, a looming shadow approached threateningly.
Surprised Chairman Jo instinctively withdrew his damp hand and took a step back. A low voice casually penetrated as Taejoon spoke, “Oh, I seem to have startled Chairman.”
It was Taejoon.
He nonchalantly washed his hands, glancing at the surprised Chairman Jo through the mirror with apparent delight. Even when they met publicly in a crowded place a while ago, encountering Taejoon in an empty space created an even more threatening atmosphere.
Even Chairman Jo, who had experienced countless ups and downs and developed immunity, seemed momentarily taken aback.
However, Chairman Jo quickly regained composure, masking his calmness.
“Because there was no sign.”
In response, Taejoon lightly smirked and nodded, examining Chairman Jo’s appearance through the mirror. By now, the intention behind their appearance here began to pique curiosity. Without concrete evidence, were they engaging in psychological warfare?
If that were the case, he couldn’t just stand by. Chairman Jo directly asked, “It might not be a comfortable situation. Why did you think of coming here?”
The implication was that it wasn’t a friendly place, so back off. However, Taejoon, wiping the moisture from his hands with a tissue, opened his mouth slowly as if finding Chairman Jo’s question amusing.
“I just like a good show.”
“A show… a show? What…”
“They said there would be an interesting show here today.”
Chairman Jo furrowed his eyebrows. He thought Taejoon might be mocking him.
“I’m sorry, but I haven’t prepared any such show. This isn’t a place for a show. You’ve got the wrong information.”
Even with Chairman Jo’s words, Taejoon, looking at himself in the mirror with leisure, seemed to be checking his appearance. Where did this nonchalant attitude come from in such a tense situation?
“Then enjoy yourself.”
After Chairman Jo bid farewell and left, Taejoon, gazing at his reflection in the mirror, muttered in a low voice, “Sorry, Chairman Jo, but I prepared that show. Not you. So… enjoy it to your heart’s content.”
Exiting the restroom and approaching Seorin, she whispered, “Where did you go?”
“The restroom.”
“Chairman Jo just came out of there too. Did you two talk?”
“Yeah.”
“What did you talk about?”
“Nothing special. No need.”
“The event is about to start. Secretary Shin, did you prepare well?”
“Don’t worry. I’m exceptionally good at one thing. And it should have started by now. Want to check?”
Taejoon took out his phone and checked a part of their confidential plan.
He entered the official site’s bulletin board, clicked on a post uploaded five minutes ago, and personally confirmed that their plan was smoothly progressing.
“It was posted five minutes ago, but there are a lot of replies compared to the views.”
Seorin nodded satisfactorily and murmured.
The fact that there were many replies compared to the view count indicated an explosive reaction from the audience. But this was just the beginning.
“Hello, everyone. I’m Jo Hansung, head of the promotional team at Ocean Shipping. We hope you enjoyed the event we prepared. Now, let’s proceed with the main part of the event. Please enjoy the champagne and food we’ve prepared and watch lightly. Thank you.”
Finally, the main event began.
Most of the attention was likely directed towards Chairman Jo, but people clapped and cheered, focusing on the stage.
At this, Taejoon and Seorin, as if keeping a promise, shook hands.
It was a thrilling moment that sent shivers down to the bone.
As the event progressed, and the history of Ocean Shipping concluded like a movie, thunderous applause erupted.
Chairman Jo was exhilarated by the sense of victory. Regardless of how difficult and dirty the path had been, the process was not important. Only the visible results were the key to judging everything.
In that sense, Chairman Jo took pride in his success.
From starting with nothing to reaching this point, there were many twists and turns, but the result was undeniably this successful! Taejoon and Seorin couldn’t hinder him.

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.
