Vice President’s office.
Thump, thump, thump, thump. Bang!
Footsteps filled with anger resounded, and soon the door to the Vice President’s office flung open harshly, as if it would break.
“Hey! Min Ha Joon! Look at me.”
Ji Hoon, with an expression as fierce as his footsteps, revealed himself.
“Don’t you think about the people who worry about you? You disappeared without a single call?”
Ji Hoon had spent a sleepless night worrying about Ha Joon, who had disappeared during a short trip to buy water, and had even considered reporting it to the police.
“I forgot.”
Ha Joon glanced up at Ji Hoon and answered nonchalantly as if it was nothing.
After making him worry so much, what? He forgot?
“Are you making excuses now? Do you know how worried I was?”
“Yeah. So, I’m. Sorry.”
Each word was filled with force.
An unspoken pressure to stop now.
“You, really……”
How can you be so confident after doing well?
Ji Hoon was speechless at Ha Joon’s apology, which lacked any trace of sincerity.
“Ha! Really! I’m the fool for worrying about a bad guy like you and chasing you here. I’m the fool!”
Even though he raised his voice in anger, his frustration didn’t easily subside because of the other party’s attitude.
Eventually, Ji Hoon slumped down on the sofa and started to grumble.
He must have returned home safely on his own.
Ha Joon shook his head with a tsking sound, looking puzzled about why Ji Hoon was worrying so much.
“Didn’t your mother leave some side dishes?”
“Yeah! I don’t know what’s so great about such a heartless son that she prepares side dishes every time.”
Ji Hoon’s grumbling was laced with thorns.
“You should have brought them if you were coming like this.”
“I purposely didn’t bring them, okay? Do I have to run your errands too? You go pick them up yourself!”
The sight of Ha Joon, not even attempting to grasp the situation, severely contorted Ji Hoon’s facial muscles.
“Fine. I’ll go pick it up after work, so just stop there and leave, okay?”
In the midst of the ongoing emotional battle, Ha Joon’s expression hardened.
“I’m leaving! Even if you tell me not to, I’m going!”
Ji Hoon, who had been glaring at Ha Joon with icy eyes, yelled out until the very end and then stormed out of the Vice President’s office.
As soon as Ji Hoon left the Vice President’s office, Secretary Park, as if waiting, came in.
“Vice President. It’s time to move to the conference room.”
“Let’s go.”
Ha Joon left the Vice President’s office for a meeting with all the department heads.
Conference room.
At the end of the long conference table, sat Ha Joon with a sharp gaze. On both sides, the department heads sat, swallowing their dry spit in tension.
The PR department head, who just finished briefing, was looking at Ha Joon for signs.
Even without confirming the expression of Ha Joon, who was looking down at the materials throughout the briefing, it seemed to be known.
The black aurora emanating from behind his back explained everything.
After a moment of silence, Ha Joon lifted his head.
“Is that all?”
“Yes. That, that’s all.”
Ha Joon’s gaze, which had been directed at the staff who had finished the briefing, reached the department heads seated at the table.
“Is this content confirmed by all the department heads present here?”
Ha Joon asked Secretary Park, who was standing next to him.
“Yes. This is all approved content.”
In an instant, Ha Joon’s brows furrowed deeply.
“Is there anything different from the content of the last meeting?”
“…….”
“Why are you trying to repackage it so plausibly when the content has not changed at all?”
Ha Joon’s eyes were filled with coldness.
“I apologize. We will review and revise everything.”
The team leader who conducted the briefing spoke up, mustering courage, while everyone else could only move their eyes, unable to utter a word.
“Of course, you should. If the next meeting is going to be a waste of time like this, you should step down from your positions as team leaders. Let’s end the meeting now.”
Ha Joon rose abruptly from his seat, and all the other team leaders also stood up.
Filled with anger, Ha Joon left the conference room, and as the door closed with a loud thud, the team leaders collapsed into their chairs.
“Ah… I feel like my life is getting shorter.”
“Exactly. It feels like walking on thin ice every meeting.”
“I can’t speak just by looking at the Vice President’s face.”
They didn’t know who started it, but they began to agree with each other.
“Well! Let’s stop here and go for overtime now. Ah! I’m happy. I love working overtime.”
At the words of the PR team leader, who seemed to have given up everything, the other team leaders also let out a low sigh and left the conference room.
At that time, at Su Ah’s house.
Sitting in front of the computer, browsing through job search sites, the doorbell rang. It was Da Eun.
“Ah, Da Eun.”
[Did you go to the bookstore well yesterday?]
“Ah. Right! The bookstore!”
[What? Didn’t you go?]
“Yeah. I forgot about going to the bookstore because I was riding with a guy.”
[A guy? What guy?]
Male lead is a Love-Obsessed Merman
When he discovers she has gone, he risks everything to pursue her on land, enduring agonizing pain to transform his tail into human legs…
One-line summary: Male lead chases female lead. The male lead’s love is a bit sick, an invincible love brain.
Synopsis
During a voyage at sea, Jiang Yang accidentally captures a merman.
Servant: I heard that mermen are fierce and brutal.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman obediently rubbing her palm like a puppy: “You call this fierce and brutal?”
Servant: I heard that mermen have no human nature.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman with wet puppy eyes, obsessively calling her ‘A Yang’ like a childish infant: “You call this having no human nature?”
With great difficulty, she releases the merman back into the sea and returns to shore.
Who would have thought that in less than half a month, the merman, who should have been freely wandering in the South China Sea, would shed his scales, endure the pain of losing his tail, transform into human legs, and come ashore to find her?
He kneels at her feet, rubbing her palm, with merman tears rolling down: “A Yang, don’t abandon me.”
