“Besides that, you’re emptyhanded.”
“Eh?”
“The newspaper. Didn’t you bring it?”
Impossible! She should have brought the five different newspapers that Kwon Jun Hwi read every morning from the first floor. She completely forgot while being distracted.
Just then, the elevator arrived. Leaving behind a flustered Yeon Woo, Jun Hwi slipped out through the opened door.
“It’s not a matter of being flustered, you should have stood up to him for not bringing such a thing!”
Even while saying this, Yeon Woo, who seems to be his helpless secretary, pressed hard on the button for the first floor to go and get the newspaper.
Although the heated effort she barely squeezed out turned out to be useless, Yeon Woo didn’t give in and spent the whole day struggling not to get chased away from her secretary’s seat.
Pretending not to hear when Jun Hwi called her because she was loudly talking.
Providing wrong materials instead of the ones being searched for.
Not leaving any phone notes. Consistently acting as if she doesn’t know anything when asked. Booking a meeting room in the farthest building.
They were tiny acts of rebellion that would only make the person on the receiving end annoyed, unnoticed by others.
As she dragged out the day like that, it was already 5:40 in the afternoon.
Although his reaction was not as refreshing as she thought, which bothered her, it was difficult to judge with just one day.
While resolving to continue this way for the time being, she was telling Ji Eun about the work in detail.
“Deputy Kim Yeon Woo!”
Before Jun Hwi, who had left his seat for a meeting, even entered the corridor, he called for Yeon Woo loudly. His sharp shoe sounds broke the peace.
Yeon Woo instinctively stood up quickly and was ready to take notes with her notebook and pen in her hands.
All those antipathy and rebellious thoughts were already kicked far away.
“C Pharmaceuticals. Produced in ’17. Prepare it now.”
“Ah, yes.”
“No, ’30. Produced in ’30.”
“Understood.”
He was listing words roughly, so he seemed to be in a great hurry.
Of course, Yeon Woo had now reached the point where she perfectly understood his uncourteous work instructions.
Leaving Ji Eun, who was still tilting her head, behind, Yeon Woo began to click here and there with her mouse while typing fast.
Jun Hwi went into his room. Following him, Lawyer Yang, who attended the meeting with him, came in and gave her a supplementary explanation while catching his breath.
“C Pharma is suddenly asking Lawyer Kwon to play with them again. So, pressure there.”
“People actually ask Lawyer Kwon to play with them?”
“I guess the code is correct. Kwon Lawyer is quite popular among his clients? Surprising, isn’t it?”
It’s truly surprising.
Even though he’s not the type to enjoy such things. What’s the driving force for such a person who has more than enough cars, homes, and money to obsessively work to the point of pleasing others?
Pushing aside her brief distraction quickly, Yeon Woo resolved the situation while continuing her newbie training.
“It seems like you’re headed to a C Pharmaceuticals hospitality event, then you’ll have to drink, so you can’t drive yourself. Arrange for a driver right away.”
“Yes.”
“The 30yearold I mentioned earlier is a whiskey story. I can’t go emptyhanded if I’m invited. Check the hospitality inventory, and if there’s none, apply to the responsible team immediately. Ah, and.”
The newcomer who had been diligently taking notes chased after Yeon Woo when she suddenly rushed to the pantry.
After taking out the 30yearold whiskey, Yeon Woo rummaged through the refrigerator and handed him a hangover cure drink.
“C Pharmaceutical executives tend to drink a lot, so it would be good to prepare this in advance. The lawyer, no, Mr. Kwon is quicktempered, so open the cap too.”
With the sound of a beverage bottle opening, the two quickly moved back to Jun Hwi’s room.
While he, with a coat slung over his arm, was drinking the hangover cure that Yeon Woo offered, Yeon Woo moved without hesitation.
She put the documents on his desk into the briefcase, and set it neatly aside to take it with the whiskey.
Finally, the sudden hospitality preparation ends when they exchange the empty water bottle that Jun Hwi offers and the postit with the company car’s number on it.
“Will you not attend the Criminal Litigation Team’s regular meeting at 9 am tomorrow?”
“Instead of that, I’ll arrange a report to the CEO. Make it 8:45.”
“A report to the CEO?”
Even after running like that at night, is there still enough energy to report early in the morning?
Ah. Kwon Jun Hwi’s limitless energy was unofficially confirmed at the end of the year. It’s enough. Yeon Woo nodded in response.
“The subject is the progress of the comprehensive business agreement with C Pharmaceuticals. It seems like it’s almost all over.”
The face of the man who had put nearly a year’s worth of effort in front of him shone with confidence.
Male lead is a Destined Young Husband (Female-dominant)
One-sentence summary: Wife-master, listen to my explanation!
Li Ruantang, a young lady from a prestigious family, stumbled and fell. When she woke up, she saw a noble and beautiful young man sitting by her bedside, wiping away tears.
The young master had slightly reddened eyes, and his every move exuded charm.
The sight made Li Ruantang’s eyes hot and her heart flutter. After all, she had made a bet with the young master Meng from the neighboring family. If she couldn’t marry a husband before the end of the year, she would have to admit defeat and give up the jade she had worked so hard to obtain.
Outside the window, the flowers were in full bloom.
Rather than losing the bet, the jade, and her face, Li Ruantang calculated that it would be better to seek marriage with the young master in front of her, killing three birds with one stone.
…
Meng Jun never thought that an accident during a spring outing would lead to them rolling down a cliff and into a river, yet still survive.
Now they were trapped in an unknown village, and Meng Jun had overheard that the family who had rescued them had their own intentions.
After all, it was Li Ruantang who had lost her mind and sought marriage first. He was only trying to protect himself!
Glancing at Li Ruantang, who was listing her own merits, the young husband’s voice softened, and he blushed as he lied, “W-wife-master, Wife-master, don’t you remember me?”
The young husband’s voice was clear and handsome, coaxing Li Ruantang’s heart to be soft and sweet, and she spared no effort to protect him.
It wasn’t until they returned to the capital that Li Ruantang suddenly remembered.
When they had fallen off the cliff, in order not to implicate Wei Yunruo, whom he secretly admired, the young husband had instead pulled her, who was slightly farther away, down the cliff with him…
Short summary by Yuushi L: Initially, the male lead (ML) liked another girl, while the female lead (FL) liked the ML. Both fell off a cliff. The FL temporarily lost her memory, and the ML, fearing others might take advantage of him, claimed FL was his wife while they were staying in a village. Later, when they returned home, the FL regained her memories and remembered that the ML liked someone else, so she kept her distance from him. However, during their time living together in the countryside, the ML’s view of the FL had completely changed. From this point, his pursuit of the FL begins.
