One year ago from now.
“Sunbae, are you in Korea? Why isn’t the phone working? Where are you? When did you return?”
The voice of DaJeong answering the phone was very bright and urgent.
『Last night. Oh, right, I heard the news from HeeJu this morning. She said you safely gave birth to the baby. Congratulations, DaJeong. How’s your health? Is the baby healthy too?』
“Yes. Both the mother and the baby are healthy. Thank you for your concern, Sunbae.”
『The baby must be beautiful. Can I come see?』
“Do you even need to ask? You’re welcome anytime, Sunbae.”
The day DoJun visited the house to see the baby was a leisurely noon on a weekend.
DaJeong laughed heartily while looking at the bouquet of flowers he offered as a congratulatory gesture. Despite not seeming very receptive, even JaeJeong welcomed the guest without any awkwardness.
Rather than feeling reluctant, it was more about wanting to proudly showcase the successful image of a harmonious family that she had created, and a greater desire to boast about their honey bee.

DaJeong and DoJun peered into the baby’s crib side by side. The two-week-old honey bee blinked its bright eyes. When it moved its tongue or yawned, both of them would silently scream without making any sound.
DoJun’s smile spreading at the corner of his mouth was unexpected.
“She’s really beautiful. More beautiful than when SiU was born.”
“I guess it’s because it’s a girl. It feels different from when SiU was born.”
DaJeong half agreed with a wrinkled nose.
“Really beautiful. I guess she takes after you.”
“You too, Sunbae.”
The foreheads of the two people, who were quietly laughing in front of the baby crib, seemed close enough to touch. It was a scene perfect for being suspected of being a dad.
Around that part, after boasting about their daughter, DaJeong, who had deliberately suppressed her twisted pride, finally raised her head.
“If you’ve seen enough, can you please leave? Our honey bee is sensitive, and if she sees an unfamiliar man, she tends to have trouble sleeping and cries.”

Quietly standing guard, JaeHyuk suddenly chased the two out of the baby’s room. He wanted to boast about his daughter, but seeing another man looking at his daughter with such soft eyes bothered him.
DoJun gracefully stepped back. Although he visited to congratulate and see the baby, DaJeong knew very well that wasn’t his only purpose.
DaJeong guided him to a quiet terrace with a tea table. Absently touching the teacup, DoJun suddenly conveyed an apology to DaJeong.
“Sorry I couldn’t attend the wedding.”
“What are you apologizing for? I didn’t invite anyone other than family anyway.”
DaJeong suggested having a special meal where only a few special people, like family, would be invited as a substitute for the wedding.
JaeHyuk was pleased with DaJeong’s plan for a small wedding. It was because there was no need for a grand wedding ceremony, and it saved time and was less troublesome.
Moreover, since DaJeong was not alone, there was never any consideration for an extensive wedding ceremony.
Of course, Chairman Park and Jung-Ae did not approve of the two people’s decision. Chairman Park insisted that the person leading the company should maintain a proper form befitting the role.
Jung-Ae, too, expressed dissatisfaction for a while, saying that if she were born a woman, she would wear a ceremonial apron and organize a proper wedding, not something like frying beans on a campfire.
Despite going to such lengths, the decisions of the prospective bride and groom were not swayed.

Thus, Jung-Ae, Sol, and Suk-Hee were invited as the bride’s side guests, and on the groom’s side, Chairman Park, Director Min, and Jun-Ho, along with his father, Chairman Hong, attended, illuminating the occasion.
And as guests from both sides, Si-U graced the event.
DaJeong learned about the fact that Chairman Hong, her client, was Jun-Ho’s father right after giving an answer about marriage to JaeHyuk.
Pleased with it, he took DaJeong somewhere, as if there was a gift he wanted to show her.
The destination was not unfamiliar. It was the construction site of the house Chairman Hong had commissioned.
‘Haha. Good, very good! Let’s make a contract then. I’ll generously cover my design fee, so design a house that a skillful architect would want, not too much or too little.’
DaJeong understood at that moment. The words of Chairman Hong, who smiled kindly, were like a recorded message, and there was a separate party involved.
The time spent hesitating was considerable. Without waiting any longer, DaJeong opened her mouth first.
“By the way, how is Su-Kyung doing? Is she well? Seeing Senior frequently going to the U.S., she seems to be doing fine. Can I assume that?”
Looking down at the teacup, DoJun responded with a wry smile. Emotions that could not be hidden at all were revealed plainly above his faint smile.

DaJeong narrowed her eyes.
“Senior, do you really like Su-Kyung?”
“Yeah, I do. That’s why I want to stay by her side.”

Short scene 2:
Wei Jing Mo stared intently at Feng Bai Su who was about to go out, wanting to say, “Be careful on the road.”
Before he could speak, Feng Bai Su suddenly bent down and bit his cheek.
Her peach blossom eyes were full of disdain: “Tsk! You’re so clingy!”
Wei Jing Mo: “…”
