“Huh?”
It seemed like even Ji Na could see the surprise clearly showing on Ji Hye’s face. Ji Hye, blinking her eyes, pouted with a disappointed look.
“Ah, what. Did you already know about it?”
Hmm, she even knew something more shocking.
Ji Na, suppressing a laugh inside, closed the document she had been working on.
“Well, how could you not know when they were so obvious.”
A quick glance across the office revealed Do Jin and Yun Ju walking side by side.
“Right. I told you something was off.”
Ji Hye whispered, narrowing her eyes.
“But how didn’t they catch on?”
At Ji Na’s question, Ji Hye seemed to suddenly come to her senses, and turned her head.
“I have a friend in HR. She inquired about a vacation because of her honeymoon. It seems Heo Yun Ju had coordinated with her, they must have gone together.”
Now they’re being completely blatant about it.
They went through so much trouble to keep it a secret like a national classified document with her.
No matter how much she said she had forgotten, she couldn’t prevent a wave of bitterness from rising. Rather, it was a relief now that it had been a secret.
“Anyway, they’ll announce it soon, right?”
Ji Hye’s eyes sparkled again. She seemed excited by the news of an office romance, which was a rarity.
“An office romance is so romantic.”
That’s all fantasy.
Ji Na, seeing Ji Hye’s dreamy face, could only mutter to herself, unable to pour cold water on her.
“So, where are we going for lunch today?”
At Ji Na’s question, which interrupted the daydreaming Ji Hye, Ji Hye suddenly came to her senses.
“Since it’s hot, shall we have cold noodles?”
As Ji Na was about to leave the office, she thought of Jin Woo and looked back at his seat. However, Jin Woo was nowhere to be seen.
“Who are you looking for?”
Following Ji Na’s gaze, Ji Hye asked.
“Ah, no.”
Ji Na quickly turned her head. Her face heated up as if she had been caught in a secret.
During lunchtime, Jin Woo, who had disappeared somewhere, was at his desk during the afternoon work hours. Without realizing it, Ji Na had been paying attention to Jin Woo.
“Deputy Lee.”
His voice came from right beside her, even though he had clearly been at his desk just a moment ago. Ji Na looked at Jin Woo, startled.
“Do you have any tasks for me?”
Her reflection was captured in his handsome eyes.
“Ah, no, that is…”
Ji Na stammered, quickly clicking her mouse. How on earth did Seo Jin Woo not realize? She felt so embarrassed she wanted to hide somewhere.
“Deputy Lee Ji Na.”
Coincidentally, it was Kim Do Jin who rescued Ji Na from her predicament.
“Could you go out and check whether this data is correct?”
It had been a while since her last external work assignment.
“Take the intern with you and train them well.”
Ji Na was puzzled by Do Jin’s seemingly cheerful gaze, but she quickly excused herself, not wanting to stay with him for too long.
“Seo Jin Woo, we have external work.”
It was Ji Na and Jin Woo’s first external work together.
While waiting for the elevator, Ji Na began explaining, spreading out the documents in her hands.
“We need to analyze the correlation between marketing and sales in the first half…
Watching Ji Na calmly explain, Jin Woo showed a faint smile.
Her focused appearance was pretty. Her neatly tied hair flowed over her shoulders and onto her front.
“…so I think it should work like this.”
Jin Woo quickly nodded with a serious look.
“Are you going out?”
Chief Jung approached. Ji Na quickly bowed her head.
“Yes, Chief.”
Ever since he spilled alcohol a while ago, the chief’s gaze towards Ji Na had been less than kind. Hence, Ji Na was more cautious around him.
The chief glanced briefly at Ji Na, then shifted his gaze to Jin Woo next to her.
“Where are you going?”
“Myeongdong.”
“Take the car.”
“Pardon?”
Ji Na’s voice rose in response to the unexpected words from the chief. The company car wasn’t something one could just borrow at will. Whenever she went on external work assignments with Do Jin before, they always traveled on foot or used public transportation.
“Take the keys.”
The chief, seemingly out of nowhere, held out the keys. Surprised, Ji Na took them.
“And listen.”
Today, the chief was unusual. What had he eaten wrong? Could they really take the car?
“This is a corporate card. You’ll get tired in between, so buy some coffee. When you finish your work, don’t come back to the office, go straight home. Got it?”
Ji Na was now rendered speechless. She had never experienced anything like this when going out for work. What on earth was happening?
Even the chief seemed awkward, grumbling as he shifted his gaze towards the elevator that hadn’t arrived yet.
“It’s too slow. I’m in a hurry. I guess I’ll just take the stairs. Then, take care.”
After giving a quick nod towards Ji Na, the chief waved and disappeared into the emergency stairs.
“What… what’s going on… It’s really weird.”
Ji Na tilted her head, genuinely concerned whether the chief was ill somewhere.
“That’s great. I’ll drive.”
Jin Woo received the keys from Ji Na, smiling brightly.

really disliked him
