“Yes, I’ll take a look now.”
After reviewing the data Yoon-hee had uploaded, Lajin gave her approval.
“It looks good to upload like this.”
“Great!”
As Yoon-hee returned to her seat, Lajin’s phone vibrated.
It was a message from Sunwoo.
[Lajin, can we meet during lunchtime? I’ll come over. If not, at least a brief call would be good.] [What’s the matter, Oppa?] [Hmm, it’s better to talk in person. It’s urgent.] [Okay, I’ll call you.]‘What could be going on with Sunwoo Oppa?’
While Lajin was tilting her head, the intercom rang.
It was the secretary’s office.
“Yes, this is Manager Seo Jaehun’s secretary.”
[Dash] It’s the chairman’s office. Chairman wishes to have lunch with Manager and Director at twelve.“I have a free schedule right now. I’ll inform him right away.”
[Dash] He wants you both to leave together from the company.“Sure, I understand.”
[Dash] Then, I’ll have a car waiting in front of the main gate at twelve.After hanging up the intercom, Lajin got up from her seat, knocked twice on the office door, and opened it after a moment’s pause.
“Manager.”
Originally, Jaehun was someone who continued his work no matter who entered, but as soon as he heard his own voice, he turned his head.
And more than that.
He even gave her a faint smile.
Jaehun, who always had a cold expression at work, changed like this because of such a small thing.
Even with this subtle change, Lajin’s heart fluttered.
But now it was working hours.
In ‘Secretary Mode,’ Lajin spoke with a businesslike tone, without a change in her expression.
“Chairman wants you to have lunch with him. He wants to leave together and go to a Korean restaurant in Jamsil. The car will be waiting in front of the main gate at twelve.”
Upon hearing those words, Jaehun’s smile disappeared, and wrinkles formed on his forehead.
“Dinner? Why?”
“I’m not sure of the reason.”
“Could it be because of William Chef’s incident?”
“Did Senior Manager Seo Ju-han tell Chairman about it?”
“… No. Even if he’s stupid, he wouldn’t reveal his own mistake. He won’t admit that it was his own plan.”
Then why?
At that moment, the memory of the last confrontation with Grandfather came to Jaehun’s mind.
‘No way… It couldn’t be the same situation again.’
It had been a long time since that day was erased from his mind.
He couldn’t recall it immediately.
Is Grandfather still unable to let go of his regrets?
He sighed and said, “Decline.”
“I already said we have no schedule.”
“What if I tell them straightforwardly?”
“I couldn’t lie to the Chairman.”
Haa. He wanted to treat Lajin to a delicious meal.
“I’ll call you when I’m ready for lunch.”
“The lunch with the chairman is more than anything an important commitment. It holds significant symbolism as well. I don’t want to miss the opportunity that anyone would desire, especially when it is I who brings my superior to this occasion.”
Jae-hun intended to say that his desire to have lunch with her was greater than the symbolism of the lunch with Grandfather.
“And I have a prior engagement.”
“Prior engagement? You didn’t mention anything in the morning.”
Yesterday was Sunday, and it was the day they slept together at Jae-hun’s house. They even commuted to work in the same car in the morning.
“It just came up.”
“I quickly made up this prior engagement so that I wouldn’t miss that important opportunity.”
“No, it’s real.”
“Is having lunch with Secretary Jeong also a prior engagement?”
“Not with Yoon-hee.”
“Then who?”
Lajin said without much thought, “A college senior.”
“…Could it be Sunwoo Jeong?”
She tilted her head. ‘Could it be?’ She well knew that Sunwoo was the only college senior she contacted.
“Yes, that’s correct.”
“Hmm.”
A sudden blaze surged within Jae-hun.
Why did she nod her head so naturally, as if it were obvious? Why did she confidently respond like that?
“You speak so casually about meeting another man in front of me.”
“Should I have not said anything?”
“No? Absolutely not.”
“That’s right. Then have a good time with the chairman. If possible, I hope you have a more favorable time for Director.”
“If you’re so worried, come with me. Isn’t the Secretary-General someone who assists from the shadows?”
“I’m not worried. The superior I assist is so outstanding that I don’t need to worry.”
Lajin smiled faintly.
“Have a good time.”
“Really, aren’t you coming with me?”
“Secretary-generals are excluded from accompanying to such occasions.”
Ah, right.
However, he couldn’t tell her to wait outside until he came out.
When they visited “Spa in Heaven” together before, she had said, watching the employees waiting outside the changing room, “How hard must it be to just stand there doing nothing? Rather than waiting quietly, it’s better to do something. Waiting like that is…”
Lajin didn’t want to do something she disliked. She just wanted to embrace the things she liked and wished her to always be happy and joyful.
“Why meet Sunwoo?”
“I don’t know either. I’ll know once I meet him.”
“Did that guy suggest meeting first?”
Well, that’s probably it. Lajin wouldn’t have suggested meeting first.
Her mind eased slightly, but it was only for a moment.
“Where they move, what menu they order, and what conversation they have, report every 10 minutes… No, every 5 minutes.”
“Why are you saying something so unreasonable?”
“Originally, it was every minute, but I made a lot of concessions.”
Lajin, who was looking at him, smiled softly and whispered as she approached.
“Let’s have lunch together on Wednesday, Mr. Jaehun. I’ll buy you something delicious.”
Again, such cute behavior.
“Alright.”
Honestly, he had to admit how much he had endured since the weekend.
“Give me a kiss. I’ll go and come back without any issues.”

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.
[Although it’s inappropriate, I also want a young and handsome boyfriend to have my child.]
