“Here are the progress reports related to this marketing competition.”
Exactly 30 minutes later, the competitionrelated meeting was held.
The head of the marketing team began to explain the competition schedule, and Ha Joon verified the schedule with a sharp gaze.
“That’s all.”
At the end of the marketing team leader’s speech, Ha Joon opened his mouth.
“This marketing competition will be conducted as a blind review. We’ll judge based solely on skill, excluding all personal information. Let’s revise the assessment criteria and have another meeting.”
A blind review. The sudden change in the review method had the team leaders buzzing in surprise.
Suddenly, Ha Joon’s gaze turned fierce.
“Looking at your surprise, it seems like you all had some people in mind.”
“……”
At Ha Joon’s question, the team leaders could not give any answer.
Everyone could tell that the rise of his lips was not a smile.
The team leaders lowered their eyes and swallowed dryly.
In fact, the reason Ha Joon suddenly changed the review method was due to the information he received from Secretary Park.
Rumors that the executives’ recommended candidates list was being passed on to the team leaders even before the competition schedule was released.

Ha Joon finished his speech with an icy tone.
“Empty your heads of any lines to pull, and your hands of any recommended candidates. Just bring your eyes to find talented individuals and your integrity.”
“……”
“Let’s end the meeting.”
At Ha Joon’s single word, the team leaders fled from the meeting room.
“How pathetic……”
Ha Joon, who had been muttering to himself, clutched his right arm and rubbed his eyes.
It was a pain he had forgotten about during the meeting.
“Vice President, are you okay? Would you like some painkillers?”
It was Secretary Park, who had prescribed painkillers right after hearing the news from Ji Hoon.
It was always Ji Hoon who informed others about Ha Joon, who did not talk about his own emotions or situations.
Ever since he was the team leader of the head office’s marketing team, his role remained the same, despite currently running a convenience store out of necessity to grasp the industry as he was going to take over the Hyun Sung Retail sector from next year.
“No, I’m fine.”
With the expected response, Ha Joon got up from his seat and moved towards the vicepresident’s office.
Time passed and it was Saturday before they knew it.
Su Ah had been sitting at the counter of the convenience store, where no one had visited for hours, resting her chin on her hands.

Ji Hoon’s convenience store was located in a quiet residential alley, so there were hardly any customers, especially on weekend afternoons like this, it was almost serious.
“Ahem. No customers, the store is quiet, and the sunlight is warm. No need for sleeping pills. Hmm……”
Su Ah’s head kept falling towards the floor, unable to overcome the drowsiness coming in for various reasons.
“Identification……show……hm, hm.”
She had been dozing off for a while, mumbling in her sleep, when the dingdong bell rang and the front door of the convenience store opened.
“Welcome.”
Instinctively rising at the sound of the bell, Su Ah greeted and quickly wiped off any possible drool around her mouth.
“Hey! Did you see him? He’s unbelievably handsome, right?”
A group of female students, who seemed to be high schoolers, bustled into the convenience store.
“Exactly. Did we have such a person in our neighborhood?”
“Should we go and talk to him?”
Su Ah didn’t know who the students were talking about, but she found herself listening intently to the students who seemed quite excited.
“Should we ask for his contact?”
“You go and ask him.”
“But, does he live in this neighborhood?”
“Let’s ask the convenience store sister. If he’s a local, he must visit here often.”
The group of female students rushed towards Su Ah as soon as their words ended.
What, what’s this? Why are they rushing at me so fiercely?
Surprised by the onslaught of high school girls who were taller than her and superior in every aspect, Su Ah took a step back.

“Sister!”
One of the most stylish and prettily dressed girls in the group of female students took a step towards Su Ah.
“Yes, customer.”
“Sister, the man sitting at the outdoor table over there, does he come here often?”
Outdoor table? A man? Was there a man sitting at the outdoor table?
To answer the girl’s question, Su Ah shifted her gaze to the outdoor table.
“Huh?”
The moment she confirmed the man the student was talking about, Su Ah’s eyes widened.
… Ha Joon?
Surprisingly, the person sitting at the outdoor table was Ha Joon.
When did he come? Why is he sitting there reading a book?
While she couldn’t take her eyes off Ha Joon due to her surprise,
“Sister! I asked if that man comes here often!”
The student asked again, somewhat nervously, as Su Ah didn’t answer.
“No, I see him for the first time today.”
She felt no need to say he was an acquaintance, so she just said he was a stranger.
