Ji Na’s face was heavy as she left the manager’s office, the burden of his worries now on her.
‘Let’s keep it as non-face-to-face as possible.’
Ji Na consoled herself, trying to brace her heart. She also remembered something Ji Hye had mentioned.
‘Manager Kim Do Jin might be transferring.’
His chances of transferring were high. Marked by the manager, it seemed difficult for him to thrive in this company.
‘Just need to endure a little longer.’
Until he transferred.
With that thought, her mind felt somewhat at ease. She checked if the documents the manager had mentioned had arrived, as the email notification sounded. Ji Na clicked the mouse with a tense face.
“Ah, really…….”
In front of the bathroom mirror, Do Jin messed up his neatly groomed hair while continuously cursing.
The project he had previously managed was taken over by Ji Na, and just recently, he was severely reprimanded by the manager for the new project he had taken on. Everything was a mess. Do Jin’s brow furrowed as he contemplated the start of it all.
“This is all… because of Ji Na.”
His anger was misdirected. The lifeline he thought he had grabbed, Heo Yoon Ju, turned out to be a rotten rope. It was him who let go of Ji Na’s hand, but her voice, boldly saying they should break up, still echoed in his ears.
“If only she had stayed still, she would have been cherished.”
Tsk, Do Jin clicked his tongue as he straightened his hair upon hearing someone’s footsteps.
“Good day.”
An employee lightly greeted Do Jin and went inside. How did he manage to come this far… Do Jin’s eyes, reflected in the bathroom mirror, shone fiercely. He had to obtain what he needed by any means. That was Kim Do Jin’s way.
“Marriage?”
Chairman Seo raised his eyebrows at his son, who he hadn’t seen in a long time. He was shocked by the words that came out of his son’s mouth, expecting him to just report on work and leave as usual.
“I will come with her this weekend to greet you.”
Chairman Seo looked at Jin Woo with dissatisfaction.
“You haven’t been back in Korea long, is she a woman of certain status?”
Jin Woo almost scoffed at his father’s crude voice. His father, who had abandoned his mother and left in the name of love.
“Yes. More than anything, I love her very much.”
Jin Woo looked steadfastly at Chairman Seo with unwavering eyes. Chairman Seo, watching Jin Woo with a complicated gaze, sighed.
“Alright. I understand.”
Receiving no particular response from Chairman Seo, Jin Woo left the chairman’s office with an indifferent face. The unease of leaving her alone here did not easily disappear. The only thing they could trust was each other’s hearts.
His departure was already scheduled for next week. Even eating time was tight as he was resolving things here before leaving.
Yet, Jin Woo thought of Ji Na whenever he could. After work, he gazed at her wholly, as if engraving her in his body and mind, holding her passionately.
“Director Kim, what’s the schedule like after this?”
“You have an appointment with the CEO of Korea Electronics.”
“Let’s go.”
Jin Woo’s steps quickened with the desire to resolve his packed schedule and hold Ji Na in his arms soon.
“Manager Kim.”
Facing Do Jin was unavoidable. With the intention of ending it once and for all, Ji Na stood in front of him as soon as he entered the office.
“Why.”
Knowing exactly what it was about, Do Jin casually asked with sparkling eyes. There was an indiscernible chill hidden within his sly smile.
“The manager asked me to assist with your project.”
“Oh, are you going to take mine this time too?”
Ji Na bit her lip at his clear taunt. She didn’t want to get angry over such a minor provocation.
“No. If you need any materials, please let me know. I will try to finish supplementing the proposal by this week.”
Do Jin’s lips curled into a smirk as he stared fixedly at Ji Na, who had averted her gaze. Sitting in his chair, he swiveled it idly from side to side, lacking any semblance of seriousness.
“Sure. Go ahead and do as you please.”
Ji Na silently nodded at his taunting words and left her seat. During this, she felt the piercing gaze of Yoon Ju watching her intently.
It was absurdly funny to her that Yoon Ju was being so wary of her. But Ji Na didn’t want to meddle in this couple’s affairs. Though she couldn’t fathom why she was being so conscientiously observed, Ji Na decided to focus on her work as much as possible.
However, that didn’t last long.
“Deputy Ji Na.”
“Deputy Ji Na.”
“Deputy Ji Na.”
In the midst of countless calls for her attention, Ji Na suddenly felt a sense of déjà vu. She seemed to have experienced something like this before… Do Jin would call her for even the most trivial instructions.
“Manager. From next time, please give me the instructions in writing. I’ll process them and report back.”
Do Jin cocked his head, looking at Ji Na, who still avoided eye contact.
“Why would I do that?”
“It seems like I’m interrupting your work too often, so I thought I’d suggest it.”
“Are you thinking about me now?”
Do Jin asked with a half-smile. Ji Na’s shoulders twitched momentarily at his question. Not missing that subtle movement, Do Jin smiled again.
“Well, since leaving on time today is out of the question, might as well take it slow.”
“What?”
Ji Na’s head shot up at his words. Finally meeting his gaze, Do Jin’s eyes softened.
“What, is there a problem with working overtime?”

When Yu Shu was diagnosed with pregnancy, Yan Jin stared at his belly for a long time.
Covering his stomach, he muttered gloomily, “If you don’t like it, I’ll go get an abortion.”
“It’s not that I don’t like it.” Yan Jin hugged Yu Shu and said softly, “I just feel like I’m not human.”
Yu Shu comforted Yan Jin, “I was already an adult when we got together.”
Yan Jin hesitated, “But you won’t be of legal marriageable age even after giving birth to the child.”
At the same time, a flood of bullet comments appeared in the live streaming room that the two couldn’t see.
