Young-ran slowly scanned Seong-han’s face. It was a peculiar face that gave off an eerie vibe.
“Perhaps it’s because I have a common face.”
Brushing off Young-ran’s words with a hint of disdain, Seong-han clenched his fist.
“It’s not a common face, but strangely, it feels like I’ve seen it somewhere.”
Smiling amiably, Moon Young-ran spoke. When her gaze persistently lingered on his face, he turned away.
Feeling that avoiding eye contact was insufficient, he stood with his back turned, pretending to look at the painting.
“How much is this?”
“Art isn’t evaluated with money.”
“Oh, really? Then, would you hang my painting here? It’s also a form of art.”
Due to Seong-han’s blatant sarcasm, the atmosphere instantly cooled. As Moon Young-ran’s expression hardened, Yoon Tae-jin, feeling the awkwardness, pushed Seong-han out.
“Hey, Jo Pro! We had dinner plans. Let’s go, you’ll be late.”
“Dinner plans? What nonsense!”
Yoon Tae-jin urgently covered Seong-han’s mouth. Then, he grabbed him and pulled him out of the gallery.
“Why are you doing this?”
Seong-han, pushed away like an unwelcome guest, straightened his clothes and asked in a sharp tone.
“Why am I doing this? Hey, you! Who are you to interfere in other people’s business!”
Yoon Tae-jin growled, his face turning even redder. Today, he had come to the gallery to somehow make a connection with Moon Young-ran. However, just before he could put his plan into action, Jo Seong-han’s unexpected appearance disrupted everything.
“Senior.”
“What? What!”
“Please do well in your business.”
“What are you saying, you crazy bastard.”
“Fighting!”
Seong-han raised his clenched fist and shouted loudly.
“That crazy bastard. Ha, it’s not the right time for me now.”
Watching Jo Seong-han walk away with his back turned, Yoon Tae-jin, who had been glowering, hurriedly ran back into the gallery.
Fortunately, Moon Young-ran was still there.
Wiping the sweat-soaked forehead with his palm and straightening his crooked tie, Yoon Tae-jin greeted her.
“Chairwoman, I apologize for the interruption.”
“Yoon Prosecutor’s junior, he seems young and full of vigor.”
“It’s not vigor; it’s recklessness. That crazy guy, I mean, that guy doesn’t know how to gauge the situation properly yet. So, I try to keep my distance whenever possible, but since he’s a school junior, there’s nothing I can do…”
Scratching his head with an empty look, Yoon Tae-jin cautiously gauged Young-ran’s reaction.
If he had known that Jo Seong-han would come out so ignorantly, he wouldn’t have pretended not to know. Regrettably, he thought, he had needlessly stirred up trouble. Luckily, Young-ran didn’t seem to care much.
“That’s how human relationships are. Can you only work with people you like? Isn’t that right?”
“Since Chairwoman understands it generously, I’m even more embarrassed. I’ll make sure to teach that junior a lesson separately.”
“Why go to such lengths?”
“In front of the chairwoman, I committed a serious breach, so naturally, that’s the way it should be.”
“I’m Prosecutor Yoon. I’m cautious about accepting apologies that don’t come sincerely from the heart. So, please don’t bring unnecessary people forcefully and don’t do things like that.”
Young-ran smiled and declined. Although the corners of her mouth were raised, her eyes were tightly horizontal, hiding the irritation behind a formal smile. She guided Yoon Tae-jin to the manager’s office.
“Have a seat, Prosecutor Yoon.”
“Yes, Chairwoman.”
Yoon Tae-jin sat on the sofa, running his hand over the smooth leather. Even with a cursory touch, it was clear that the texture of the sofa was extraordinary.
“How much is something like this? It’s probably more expensive than my salary.”
Lying down here and watching TV, it seemed like paradise. Yoon Tae-jin’s lips curved into a smile as he indulged in the pleasant imagination.
“It seems you really like the sofa.”
“Oh, it’s so comfortable that I unintentionally…”
“Since you like it so much, I should send you one as a gift.”
“Oh, no need.”
“It’s not that expensive, so don’t hesitate to accept.”
“If Chairwoman insists, I’ll gratefully accept it, hahaha.”
Seeing Yoon Tae-jin laugh heartily, Young-ran inwardly sighed.
To openly reveal such greed, tsk tsk.
Knowing his inclination, she had purposely brought him in, but the awkward feeling didn’t subside.
Let’s quickly resolve this matter and not compromise.
Young-ran sighed loudly, as if instructing Yoon Tae-jin.
“I wanted to meet Prosecutor-nim because I have a concern. Why are you sighing as if you have a heavy heart?”
“If I reveal it’s a household matter, it’s like spitting on my own face. I can’t just openly talk about it anywhere, so it’s a distressing situation.”
“If it’s a household matter…”
Yoon Tae-jin’s sharp eyes glittered with anticipation.
A household matter. What a welcome topic for consultation.
