Seoyeon apologized to Minhyuk and stood a little away to talk.
“Where are you? Ah… You must be tired. You should’ve rested.”
They talked for half an hour after waking up, and even though it was an excuse for a morning call, Kwon Yul’s voice was still warm and exciting.
“Yeah? Really? Okay, see you when you finish work then.”
Seoyeon promptly accepted Kwon Yul’s suggestion to pick her up, as she couldn’t keep Minhyuk waiting in front of the restaurant.
However, even the sound of his breath over the phone seemed pleasant, making the conversation longer.
“Um? Is that so? Okay. Then, see you when I finish work.”
Seoyeon accepted Kwon Yul’s proposal to pick her up from work after the event.
She just wanted to see him so badly, even just hearing his voice was unbearable.
Minhyuk observed Seoyeon’s actions and felt a sense of emptiness.
Although he couldn’t hear what Seoyeon was saying as she covered her mouth with her hand, it certainly didn’t seem like a work-related call.
Seoyeon’s expressions and gestures clearly conveyed her positive feelings.
‘She can smile like that.’
Minhyuk couldn’t hide his bittersweet feelings as he watched Seoyeon’s bright expression.
Moreover, when Seoyeon finished the call and approached him with an expressionless face, he felt inexplicably uneasy.
“I apologize for making you wait when you’re busy.”
Seoyeon, overly polite, apologized to Minhyuk.
Minhyuk was deeply moved by her attitude. He wondered if he was already late.
He pondered over it all the way to the company.
It was time to make a decision and act more proactively.
“CEO Choi.”
“Yes?”
“Could I briefly see you after tomorrow’s event?”
Although Seoyeon hadn’t discussed specific details with Kwon Yul, she naturally thought of spending time with him.
“Is it an important matter?”
Since he hadn’t confirmed his schedule with Kwon Yul, he hesitated to make an appointment.
“Yes. Even if it’s short, I’d appreciate it if you could spare some time.”
Short? He wondered what she meant, but 30 minutes should be enough, right?
“If it’s okay with you, how about 30 minutes at the event venue after work?”
“That sounds good.”
Seoyeon looked at Minhyuk, trying to read his expression, and then agreed.
A quiet campus during the summer vacation.
Kwon Yul stamped his attendance at the library as usual.
He still had one final exam left, and he needed to act diligently to spend time with Seoyeon, so that was why.
The only fortunate thing was that he could have lunch with Wonjun, who was taking summer classes.
“Yul, you finished your exams. Why not go on a date with your sister?”
Wonjun asked while slurping his kimchi fried rice.
“I’m already meeting her tonight, and I plan to meet her tomorrow too.”
“Oh. Our Yul is doing well. When will I ever have a two-day consecutive date?”
“Didn’t you say you had a blind date last time?”
Kwon Yul felt happy at the thought of meeting Seoyeon and smiled widely.
“Blind date? I’ve had one.”
“But?”
“We broke up quickly as if we hadn’t met. Sigh. It’s like in a drama.”
Wonjun shook his head, as if not understanding.
“Women seem to really like third-generation chaebol heirs.”
“It depends on the drama, but generally, yes.”
“I’m a third-generation chaebol too. Why don’t women even glance at me?”
While Wonjun was serious, Kwon Yul smirked and laughed.
“Maybe because you’re a fourth-generation chaebol? Women are busy focusing on third-generation heirs.”
When Kwon Yul made an ambiguous joke, Wonjun took it more seriously.
“Look at our uncle. It seems like even third-generation chaebol heirs aren’t getting attention from women these days.”
Uncle? Could it be Choi Minhyuk from DN Home Shopping?
Suddenly, Hyunwoo’s words came to Kwon Yul’s mind: ‘The new CEO seems to find Seoyeon’s reactions subtly amusing.’
Kwon Yul was caught in a strange and uneasy feeling.
However, he calmly inquired without showing his emotions.
“If it’s your uncle, he’s outstanding. Charismatic and the CEO of a capable company.”
“Then what? The other party is still unknown.”
“Uncle is meeting someone…?”
Kwon Yul waited for Wonjun’s next words as if nothing was amiss.
“Grandma pushed uncle into a blind date. Probably because he, being the youngest, hasn’t married yet.”
“But?”
“Uncle flatly refused. He said he has someone he’s interested in.”
Someone he’s interested in?
In an instant, all of Kwon Yul’s nerve cells were sharpened, and he felt a keen sense of tension.
“He seems good at dating. Not really.”
“That’s right. Our mom said she would help naturally if it’s someone she likes. Quite unexpected.”
Help naturally?
Kwon Yul became intensely curious about Minhyuk’s girlfriend.
“What did your uncle say?”
“What can he say? He pretends he doesn’t care but likes it. You know him. If our mom gets involved, it means that person is someone.”
Knowing Wonjun’s mom well, Kwon Yul smirked.
“Mom, directly? How?”
“Oh, Uncle seems to really like her. She said she would definitely push this chance for him. It’s quite surprising.”
Definitely push?
Kwon Yul became intrigued about Minhyuk’s girlfriend.
“Did your uncle say anything?”
“I don’t know what he said. Even if I ask him, he won’t answer.”
“Ah… I see.”
Kwon Yul, worried for a moment, heaved a sigh of relief.
‘Surely it can’t be Seoyeon. Don’t worry about it.’
“So, my conclusion is that it’s tough to date whether you’re a third-generation or fourth-generation chaebol. Poor guy.”
Kwon Yul chuckled at Wonjun’s absurd conclusion.
“If I know any women, I’ll introduce you. But, you know, I don’t know anyone except for Bora and Sia. Sorry.”
That was true.
Except for Bora and Sia, Kwon Yul didn’t know any women around him.
“By the way, among your sister’s colleagues or close friends, is there anyone?”
Kwon Yul, pretending to find it ridiculous, laughed it off, but under Wonjun’s earnest gaze, he reluctantly answered.
“I’ll ask around.”
“Really? Really.”
With expectations filled in his eyes, Wonjun nodded.
“Hey, if you finished eating, go study at the library. You need to study quickly if you want to ask about it when you meet your sister in the evening.”
In response to Wonjun’s enthusiastic encouragement, Kwon Yul chuckled and stood up from his seat.
He parted ways with Wonjun and immediately sat in the designated seat in the library.
At that moment, Kwon Yul’s phone rang incessantly. It was Bora.
