Ki Joo, sitting across, glanced at her. Between her loose homewear, her neckline, her thin wrist exposed when she lifted her glass, everything was pale and slender.
She seemed even more delicate than the flowers I cherished. If she ever visited a greenhouse, she might catch a cold from the cool breeze.
Ki Joo showed his discomfort by biting the end of his lips and leaned back onto the chair’s backrest.
Beside him, Chairman Song was rambling.
“Team Leader Kwon, do you play golf?”
“I don’t know. I’m not interested.”
“Learn it. It will be useful in the future.”
Chairman Song had a history of entertaining politicians with golf. The suggestion that he should learn golf meant that he planned to bring Kwon Ki Joo to those meetings too.
Eun Chae, who was completely outside Chairman Song’s interest, was listening intently. She was repeatedly eating Kongjaban, which she didn’t usually like that much.
Ki Joo, watching her, felt a strange itching in his molars.
“……come to the head office. Huh?”
Ki Joo, almost pleading, did not bother with Chairman Song. He just watched Song Eun Chae, whose chopsticks had slipped while trying to pick up another grain of Kongjaban.
“Ah, yes.”
His words were mixed with laughter. Fortunately, Chairman Song didn’t notice as he was speaking.
Poor Song Eun Chae raised one eyebrow. Then she halflifted her head and met his gaze squarely. Her eyes were fierce, clearly annoyed.
“Kim, to the department head….”
“But.”
The thick, rugged voice interrupted Eun Chae’s soft tone. Chairman Song’s gaze finally turned to Eun Chae. He seemed puzzled at first, and then his face briefly showed annoyance at the interruption.
Eun Chae, unfazed, opened her mouth.
“What happens if I have a man, actually?”
The table was suddenly enveloped in silence. Chairman Song licked his dry lower lip.
“What. You, what are you talking about?”
As if choked, Chairman Song clenched his fist. He clenched it so tightly that the skin between the wrinkles on his hand whitened.
Eun Chae calmly watched his reaction and spoke clearly.
“Or a man I’ve been hiding.”
At her words, Chairman Song reflexively glanced at Kwon Ki Joo. If Song Eun Chae had indeed had a man, he would have reported it immediately.
Ki Joo shook his head nonchalantly as if he was hearing the news for the first time. Believing his response without question, Chairman Song instead glared at Eun Chae.
“If you’re going to spew nonsense, leave. You’re getting married soon!”
Eun Chae didn’t change her expression and looked at Kwon Ki Joo, who was lying, and twitched one side of her cheek.
“Just like I said. If I had a man, would I have to break up with him because of the marriage?”
“That’s not even worth saying.”
Chairman Song chuckled. She was always uncooperative. Something must have twisted her mind again. Chairman Song sighed and decided to end this conversation.
“Prepare for the wedding. The other house will handle everything, you just need to follow.”
“Yes. Sounds good.”
After saying that, Eun Chae put a halfsplit dumpling in her mouth. Ki Joo hardened his back against the backrest. He was feeling rather, unpleasant.
((())) ((())) ((()))
Seung Yoon rested his elbow on the table, his hands solemnly clasping his chin as he thought. Although they met regularly, it felt somehow awkward and annoying.
That woman, that woman…
Seung Yoon recalled the words of Song Eun Chae, who had a knack for trampling on his pride with just a word.
‘A phone call would have been enough for a divorce notice.’
‘That’s right. I don’t like listening to my performance, I might ruin it.’
‘If you’re bored, call a woman you meet. I don’t care.’
Song Eun Chae, who was rumored a lot, was definitely not kind. She casually skipped the acting ability that should be a basic requirement in our world, and she wasn’t even humble.
Chairman Song Myung Hwan had been taking advantage of her all along, it was becoming highly questionable. What on earth did he see in that stiff and uninteresting girl?
Around the time Seung Yoon was growing more irritated with an already uncomfortable meeting, Song Eun Chae entered the restaurant.
Despite his anxious mind, Seung Yoon’s body instantly reacted. Not only did he stand up abruptly, but he even took a few steps forward to greet her.
He attempted to hide his bruised ego by leaning on the table with one hand, but Eun Chae was already in front of him.
Seung Yoon extended an awkward greeting with an embarrassed face.
“You’re here?”
Eun Chae, though not as tall as Kwon Ki Joo, looked down at Seung Yoon, who was blocking her view with his tall figure, with disdain.
“Yes.”
Seung Yoon habitually looked over her shoulder. Eun Chae had arrived escorted by a bodyguard other than Kwon Ki Joo.
Seung Yoon glanced around, as if he couldn’t believe it. Despite this moment being fleeting, Eun Chae furrowed her brows.
Blocking the way ahead, why wouldn’t he move? She wanted to push him aside, but that was an uncivilized action.
Eun Chae, enduring with patience, composed herself and responded calmly.
“I’d like to sit down, please move aside.”
“Ah. I should, indeed.”
Seung Yoon retracted the arm he had been leaning on the table with and stepped aside.
With the way clear, Eun Chae promptly walked to a chair and sat down, her posture straight as always.
Seung Yoon grimaced as if he was truly fed up, but quickly hid his expression.
With the discovery of the tax accountant’s suspicious activities, he was in a situation requiring a tax investigation. Because of this, his father’s political activities couldn’t be financially supported from his wife’s family.
Chairman Song Myung Hwan was truly desperate. In other words, he had to win over this woman no matter what. Marriage was obviously urgent.
Han Seung Yoon reminded himself of this fact and smiled.
“Was there no traffic? It’s rush hour.”
“I thought you didn’t know considering you called me at this hour.”
“……Let’s do lunch next time. I’ve put you through too much.”
“Thank you.”
When Eun Chae replied modestly, Seung Yoon smiled and nodded. He was used to women accustomed to being treated, but never had he seen such a transparent woman. It felt new no matter how many times he looked.
Struggling to control his temper, Seung Yoon signaled the server to set up the food, and then pushed a prepared shopping bag across the table.
“You’re giving this now.”
Eun Chae’s face soured at the sight of the shopping bag.
It was obvious, even without looking, that there was a ring inside.
Nevertheless, she had to show gratitude, so reluctantly, she pulled the ring case from the shopping bag. As she opened the case, a wellcrafted diamondstudded ring exuded its presence.
Seung Yoon’s shoulders rose arrogantly, but he asked in an overly sweet tone that made the listener uncomfortable.
“How is it? Do you like it?”
If she had any taste, she would know it was expensive. Seung Yoon stared at her with a look halfignoring, halfexpecting.
Eun Chae slammed the case shut with a sound and shoved it into her handbag, dashing Seung Yoon’s expectations.
“Not really.”
She muttered dryly, without any malice.
It was just that the unconscious thought that she and Han Seung Yoon were too far apart to be civil to each other in their emotionless engagement had taken root in her subconscious and manifested in her actions.
But could there be a more blatant display of disfavor? Seung Yoon, who had never heard a negative reaction directly, seemed to feel humiliated and his cheeks twitched.
