Ji Na smiled as she watched Ji Hye, who was dragging her along while hugging her own arms.
As the department Ji Na belonged to was in the fashion industry, there were many employees with unique fashion senses and who led trends.
‘I’m not like a go stone for no reason.’
Once again, Ji Na, who was smiling bitterly at herself, stopped in her tracks following Ji Hye, who was standing tall.
“Ji Hye, why?”
“Wow… unbelievable…”
Ji Hye’s gaze was fixed towards the lobby entrance. As if she had seen a celebrity, Ji Na followed her gaze nonchalantly.
The first thought that came to her mind was that he must be a celebrity. The man leaning diagonally against the wall by the entrance, with flourdoughlike white skin, made her think that someone had spotlighted him.
In addition, his flawless facial features were beautiful enough to evoke admiration from anyone who saw him.
His tall height and long legs had proportions one would expect to see in a foreign magazine. Still, the appropriately defined muscles stood out on his white shirt.
‘Seo Jin Woo?’
She identified the man half a beat late. What on earth was he doing here?
“Am I seeing what I think I’m seeing…? He’s a person, right? I’m not the only one seeing him, am I? He’s like a masterpiece created by God.”
At Ji Hye’s awestruck words, Ji Na could not respond.
It was because her eyes had met with Seo Jin Woo’s.
“Oh my God, did we just make eye contact? Did he see me?”
She didn’t have the leisure to respond to Ji Hye’s fuss.
Jin Woo noticed Ji Na and came striding over with his long legs.
“Sister.”
It was clear he had been waiting for Ji Na.
“Hello.”
As he greeted Ji Hye, who was standing next to Ji Na, in a relaxed manner, Ji Hye received the greeting flustered.
“Oh, hello.”
She was talking to the man she had just been praising in her fantasy. Ji Hye blushed, understandably shy.
“Sister, are you on your way to lunch? Let’s eat together.”
The pleasant surprise was temporary. Ji Na felt the same tension as the night before.
Ji Na, taken aback by Jin Woo’s behavior, quickly put Ji Hye forward.
“I had plans to have lunch with Ji Hye…”
“Ah, your name is Ji Hye. That’s a pretty name. Can I join you?”
Jin Woo’s face, asking smoothly, was sparkling. Ji Hye, who was a bit overly checking her phone, unwrapped her arms,
“Oh my…I totally forgot I have a prior engagement.”
Ji Na’s eyebrows went up at Ji Hye’s unexpected words.
“See you later, darling.”
She disappeared swiftly before she could be caught.
A prior engagement… she had never had a lunch appointment since she joined the company.
“Ah, that’s unfortunate.”
Ji Na, startled by Jin Woo’s voice, turned her head to look at him.
“Jin Woo, what brings you here?”
“I had some business here, I didn’t realize it was your company.”
It was a different feeling from the previous night. Jin Woo, as if he had the sunlight in him, was smiling brightly at Ji Na.
Ji Na could also feel the pouring attention of the people passing by, fitting to the ‘masterpiece created by God’ that Ji Hye had admired.
“Sigh… let’s go somewhere quiet to talk.”
She couldn’t stay in the lobby forever, so Ji Na took a step. Her ordinary daily life felt shaken by Jin Woo’s sudden appearance.
“Ji Na?”
When she turned around at the familiar voice, Do Jin, looking neat, was standing there. His usually long eyes seemed a little narrower. Probably because of the unfamiliar man with her.
“Oh, Mr. Manager.”
She barely swallowed a more informal title. Even while Ji Na was politely greeting, Do Jin’s gaze was still locked onto Jin Woo.
“I am Seo Jin Woo.”
Before Ji Na could say anything, Jin Woo smiled brightly and greeted first, just like he did to Ji Hye earlier.
At Jin Woo’s greeting, Do Jin slightly nodded his head. It was clear that he was reluctantly accepting the greeting. There was a lot of caution in Do Jin’s gaze.
“I am Kim Do Jin.”
After simply stating his full name, Do Jin asked Ji Na.
“Are you on your way to lunch?”
“Ah, about that…”
Unsure what to say, Ji Na mumbled something incoherently while tucking her hair behind her ear. The idea of having lunch with Jin Woo made her feel guilty, as if she were betraying Do Jin.
So, Ji Na gathered her courage.
“Would you like to join us, Mr. Manager?”
At Ji Na’s words, Do Jin’s eyebrows raised slightly.
“Um.. No, I have an outside appointment. Enjoy your meal.”
After a quick glance at the watch on his wrist, he politely said goodbye and passed by them. Jin Woo, watching Do Jin’s retreating figure with a complicated feeling, smiled at Ji Na and said,
“Let’s go too, sister.”
She surely wouldn’t have misunderstood… Regardless, Ji Na, who was worried about Do Jin, moved her heavy steps.
“Manager! Over here!”
As soon as Do Jin entered the restaurant, Yoon Ju, who had arrived first, raised her hand. Seeing Yoon Ju looking brighter than usual today, a smile appeared on Do Jin’s rigid face.
“Did you wait long? I was preparing documents to take to the client.”
“No, not at all.”
Yoon Ju cheerfully spread the menu.
“Manager, I feel like I was quite rude yesterday, so I’ll treat you to something delicious. Choose what you want.”
“Rude? Not at all.”
At Yoon Ju’s words, Do Jin laughed as if it wasn’t a big deal.
“I should tell this to the deputy, right?”
“Excuse me?”
At Ji Na’s words, Do Jin’s eyebrows raised slightly. The image of Ji Na he had encountered in the lobby a while ago came to mind.
Compared to the vibrant and cheerful Yoon Ju, Ji Na seemed excessively reserved. Perhaps it was because she always stuck to her plain, golike attire. Tsk. With a dissatisfied gaze, Do Jin clicked his tongue and opened his mouth.
“It’s fine. I will talk to her later.”
At Do Jin’s nonchalant tone, Yoon Ju squinted her eyes and chuckled.
“As expected of our Manager.”
Do Jin was slightly taken aback at the affectionate title. Yoon Ju, who covered her face with one hand and squinted her eyes halfway, turned her smile towards Do Jin, making him eventually burst into laughter as well.
” ‘Our Manager,’ that sounds nice.”
