“Can’t you wait a little longer?”
In response to Jang Suho’s words, Taehyuk furrowed his brow.
“Wait for what? Until Moon Nayoung’s father takes an axe to my neck?”
Until he finds the kidnapper, and until Cha Hyeon and Park Jaesu, Detective’s family, are found.
The one who earnestly wanted to reveal that he was the person who saved Moon Nayoung more than anyone else would likely be Choi Taehyuk himself.
However, he wasn’t even attempting to reveal it.
It wasn’t that he didn’t care, but he knew he couldn’t.
Holding hope for the kidnapper who took Nayoung’s family to hell was a more terrible thing, and the chances of them knowing about the kidnapping case 17 years ago in New Zealand were slim.
So Jang Suho couldn’t torment him with hope.
It could collapse more easily when that hope was extinguished.
So, it might be better to confront Director Moon Seongcheol without hope.
“I was worried that you might be trying to stand up like you do in a fight. This meeting is a different genre, so courtesy is more important than momentum.”
Taehyuk chuckled, leaning his arm on the back of the chair in response to Suho’s concern.
“I want to see you stand up once against him. Wasn’t it a 2nd dan in kendo? Let’s have a kendo match.”
“Do you know how to do kendo?”
“I don’t, but you’ll definitely win.”
“Then let’s have a kendo match next time.”
Saying that, when Jang Suho got up from his seat, Taehyuk made a pitiful expression.
“Are you running away because you’re scared?”
Jang Suho said, turning around.
“Today, Director Jeon is at the golf course. If you’re going to meet him, please follow me.”
As Taehyuk’s arm, which had been placed on the backrest, slipped off, it made a creaking sound.
For a moment, his heart felt eerie.
However, since he was the one who spoke first, he couldn’t retreat now.
After downing the water in the glass in one shot, Taehyuk followed Jang Suho.
It felt like setting off on an adventurous journey.
It was ironic that the companion in this adventure was not a friend but Jang Suho.
The sky was clear without a single cloud, and the golf course’s grassy field was also tinted with the natural color of green.
Jang Suho and Taehyuk rode a cart together, racing across the golf course.
The view was clear, but Taehyuk’s mind was not.
“When doing business, there are many occasions to come to the golf course for entertainment. You’ve come today for a business deal too, right?”
“Then, wouldn’t it be a disturbance if I come by?”
Looking at his wristwatch, Jang Suho said, “It’s almost time to finish.”
“I see.”
“If I hadn’t met you today, I would have been here.”
“Are you bragging that you’re closer to Moon Nayoung’s father than I am?”
“I’m stating the fact.”
Jang Suho was impervious to any words, only his mouth that spoke was in pain.
If the reason Director Moon Seongcheol liked Jang Suho was because he resembled him, Taehyuk was really unlucky.
In the distance, two middle-aged men playing golf and caddies began to appear.
“The person playing golf right now is Director Jeon.”
Taehyuk fixed his gaze on the person Jang Suho pointed out.
Tall and with a robust, manly physique.
One could assume that he must have jumped around construction sites in his younger days.
“Director Moon is the most respected among the company executives.”
“But that respect doesn’t apply to me.”
“However, Director Moon is not the type to force things.”
Taehyuk turned his gaze away from Director Moon and looked at Jang Suho.
“Do you really have the intention to help me?”
The most crucial moment in his life was right in front of him, and the person he could trust and rely on was unclear, whether he was an ally or an enemy, which confused Taehyuk even more.
In contrast to Taehyuk’s complexity, Jang Suho spoke without hesitation.
“If you are indeed the one who saved Miss Moon Nayoung 17 years ago, I will definitely help you, no matter what.”
Taehyuk involuntarily furrowed his brows. Knowing that proving himself to Director Moon was more challenging than gaining recognition from Moon Nayoung’s father.
Meanwhile, the cart arrived at the location where Director Moon Seongcheol was.
The golf round had just ended, and Director Moon was shaking hands with the business partner.
“I lost again this time. I wish I could win against Director Moon just once.”
“Today was close for me too.”
“Hahaha. Next time, I will definitely win.”
The conversation between the two entrepreneurs was heartwarming, indicating that the contract went smoothly.
“Oh, Manager Jang, what unexpected event made you late today?”
The business partner, Director Eom, pretended to notice Jang Suho first.
As Director Moon Seongcheol’s gaze turned towards Jang Suho and Taehyuk, Taehyuk held his breath for a moment.
“I haven’t seen this face before. Who is he?”
Director Eom looked at Taehyuk with curiosity.
Unable to take his eyes off Director Moon Seongcheol, Taehyuk was briefly holding his breath.
Jang Suho politely introduced Taehyuk.
“He is Mr. Choi Namgi’s grandson.”

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.”
