“What on earth is the reason behind this article!”

A thunderous voice erupted from Jungwoong’s mouth.

Jungwoong’s secretary replied with a solemn expression.

“It was delayed due to the weekend, and Lee Yun Construction deliberately prepared and released it.”

“Just now? After staying quiet for so long?”

“Yes. It seems like they held a grudge and deliberately stayed quiet until now.”

“Ugh…”

His head throbbed.

It was undoubtedly a matter that had been settled well on Cho Yeong’s side.

So, he wasn’t paying much attention anymore, and now it turned into an article like this.

Spreading bad rumors about anything was not a good sign for a company that lived and died by its image.

“Moreover, what’s this? Violence?”

With already serious corruption issues, adding the fact of violence plunged the TK Tower project into a swamp.

「Lee Yun Construction claimed that they suddenly received a notice of a change in the construction company from Taeyil Group, and despite repeatedly trying to contact them, they couldn’t reach them. Then, after finally receiving a call, it was from Cho Yeong Construction expressing a desire to talk. At that time, people sent by Cho Yeong came and assaulted them, threatening them.」

Jungwoong’s eyebrows furrowed deeply at the article that was sufficient to attract public attention.

“The situation is not favorable due to the violence.”

He never expected that Sangheon would handle things in this way. He trusted that he would tidy things up neatly, but he didn’t expect such a complication.

“We should make a statement as soon as possible. What should we do?”

Jungwoong’s grip on the tablet he was holding tightened in frustration.

Unfortunately, this happened just as Suhani was working as a field operative, achieving results. The current situation was not to Jungwoong’s liking.

Sighing heavily, Jungwoong’s lips, which were holding the tablet, twisted in a bitter expression.

“Vice Chairman, Chairman Kwon is calling.”

Jungwoong’s eyes flashed. Answering the call immediately, Jungwoong said bluntly.

“What’s going on now?”

[Dash] We’re also surprised that the article was released without any notice. But don’t worry too much.

At the reassurance, the ends of Jungwoong’s eyebrows, which were raised in annoyance, subtly lowered.

“Do you have any way to quell public opinion right now?”

[Dash] We don’t have any evidence that we assaulted them.

In other words, it meant that if they maliciously attached Lee Yun Construction’s argument that there was no evidence of assault, which had already been settled amicably, it would work.

But, in other words,

“Anyway, it’s a fact that there was violence.”

[Dash] If not, there seems to be no sign of backing down.

The eyebrows that had been momentarily relieved rose again.

“Chairman Kwon.”

When Jungwoong’s voice lowered, Sangheon immediately responded.

[Dash] It’s already over. There’s no point in asking why it happened. Besides, isn’t Vice Chairman benefiting from this incident as well?

It was a valid point.
Due to this, Jungwoong found himself speechless and checked again.

“Really, are you sure there’s no evidence?”

[Dash] Yes.

After receiving Sangheon’s firm response, Jungwoong hung up the phone and ordered.

“We know nothing about the assault, and regarding the selection process of the construction company, there was no wrongdoing. Make a statement.”

The secretary replied, “Yes, understood.”

[Star Icon]

「Taeyil’s side: “Not related to assault. Changing the TK construction company is true, but there was no wrongdoing in the process.”」

「Cho Yeong Construction: “No evidence of assault, malicious propaganda by Lee Yun Construction.”」

Looking at the articles that came up one by one, Jaeo’s eyes calmly scanned the contents, his ears picking up a clear voice as if reading someone else’s story.

“Oppa?”

Jaeo’s eyes moved.

Chae Yun, who had just entered, stood holding documents.

A smile appeared on Jaeo’s lips when he saw Chae Yun.

“Why are you looking at me like that?”

“It’s nothing.”

As Jaeo casually replied and got up from his seat, Chae Yun naturally headed for the sofa.

Whenever Jaeo brought plans or analysis data, he always reviewed documents on the sofa, not at his desk.

So, why did this man choose to sit next to me on the one-person sofa instead?

Chae Yun, with a discerning eye, asked, noticing the intention behind the chosen seat.

“Why are you sitting here?”

The answer came right away.

“It’s closer here.”

Then, as if slightly annoyed, he tapped his thigh.

“Come here.”

Could she refuse?

Chae Yun, with a disdainful look, turned her head.

“I don’t like it.”

“You don’t? Then, I’ll go.”

After finishing his words, when Jaeo tried to get up, Chae Yun lightly pushed his shoulder and said, “Why are you getting up?”

The eyes speaking seemed genuine.

The expression that seemed to genuinely consider sitting on my lap was so absurd that a forced laugh burst out from Chae Yun’s lips.

“Are you crazy? Ah, go over there.”

Her small hand pushed him away.

Ignoring that touch, Jaeo pressed against Chae Yun.

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.”
