Chapter 327:
Chapter 327
Yoo-hyun turned off the monitor after quickly browsing through the data.
“Why…”
He looked at Jang Jun-sik, who flinched, and said.
“Do you want to go out for a bit?”
“It’s working hours.”
“An outside visit is fine.”
“An outside visit? Okay.”
Jang Jun-sik seemed to think that he was going to do some proper work for the first time and hurriedly grabbed hisptop.
Yoo-hyun said to him.
“You don’t need that. Just bring yourself.”
“What kind of…”
Jang Jun-sik blinked his eyes.
Yoo-hyun did not exin the reason and walked out first.
Soon after, Jang Jun-sik followed him, adjusting his clothes.
A littleter.
Yoo-hyun sat down at a cafe in Insa-dong.
He leaned back on the soft chair and drank his tea leisurely.
Jang Jun-sik, who was sitting across from him, asked with a dumbfounded expression.
His table had a cup of tea that he had not touched, steaming hot.
“Deputy, what are you doing right now?”
“Why?”
“It’s working hours. This is a vition of the rules.”
“We came for an outside visit. It’s fine.”
“What kind of outside visit is this? This is just ying around.”
Yoo-hyun left a remark that sounded like Park Seung-woo, the deputy.
“No. I’m looking at the future of disy right now. Look over there.”
He turned his head and pointed his chin.
Next to him, a young couple was watching a movie on a small phone.
The couple shared one earphone each andughed at the scenes on the poor screen.
“…”
Yoo-hyun said to Jang Jun-sik, who was silent.
“Do you see why we need ultra-high resolution?”
“That’s a word y.”
“There’s an answer in the field. This is all mentoring. Drink your tea.”
“No, thank you.”
Jang Jun-sik shook his head with a stiff expression.
Yoo-hyun asked jokingly.
“Why? Is the tea too expensive for you?”
“No. That’s not it. It’s just that this is too…”
Jang Jun-sik was about to pour out hisints.
He thought that if he left him alone, he would make a fuss again, so Yoo-hyun picked up his phone.
“Don’t worry. I’ll call someone to pay for your tea.”
“What do you mean…”
He pressed the call button right away.
The other person was Kim Young-gil, the section chief who told him to contact him if he was bored on an outside visit.
“Section chief, I’m at a cafe in Insa-dong right now. Buy me a cup of tea. Yes, yes.”
“…”
Jang Jun-sik looked at Yoo-hyun, who was on the phone, with a dumbfounded expression.
Yoo-hyun finished the call and asked him.
“Why? Do you want to go back to the office?”
“Yes. I want to go back.”
“Tsk tsk. I see. But you can’t skip lunch, so wait a little bit.”
At Yoo-hyun’s words, Jang Jun-sik took out his wallet.
He seemed to be in a hurry as he lifted his butt off the chair and took a half-standing posture.
“I’ll just pay for it myself.”
“No. That won’t do. Are you saying you don’t respect me as your senior?”
“That’s not what I meant.”
“Then just stay there.”
Yoo-hyun pressed Jang Jun-sik down and enjoyed his leisure for a while.
On the other hand, Jang Jun-sik’s expression looked veryplicated.
That’s how an awkward time passed between them.
Suddenly, Lee Chan-ho’s voice came from behind him.
“Does Han deputy have no money?”
“Huh? Deputy.”
Yoo-hyun was surprised and turned his head. Choi Min-hee, the assistant manager, pushed her wallet forward.
“You can’t have no money. I’ll pay for it.”
“How did you get here…”
Yoo-hyun was surprised by the unexpected story.
There was no need to mention Jang Jun-sik.
That wasn’t the end of it.
This time, Kim Hyun-min, the team leader, stepped forward and said.
“Hey hey, what’s this? A Hanseong employee can’t even pay for tea?”
“Team leader, hello.”
Jang Jun-sik tried to get up, but Kim Hyun-min gestured him down.
“What? Sit down, sit down.”
Before he knew it, all the part members came to Yoo-hyun’s table.
The ce became crowded with many people in a small space.
Yoo-hyun got up from his seat and approached Kim Young-gil, who was standing behind him, and asked.
“Section chief, what’s going on?”
“They followed me. I said I was going to go after I got your call, and they followed me one by one.”
“What do you mean they followed you? Tell them it’s a group outside visit.”
Kim Hyun-min corrected him, and the part members next to him chuckled.
Jang Jun-sik, who saw that, opened his mouth that he had been holding shut.
“I’m sorry, but is this okay during working hours?”
“Hey. It’s fine.”
Kim Hyun-min answered sharply, and Jang Jun-sik tackled him again.
“It clearly says in the rules that it’s not allowed.”
“Does it say in the rules that you can’te to a cafe in Insa-dong?”
“No. That’s not it, but…”
“Then it’s fine. The team leader, me, says it’s fine. Do you want me to ask the person in charge for permission?”
“No. That’s not what I meant…”
Jang Jun-sik had no chance against Kim Hyun-min’s slick words.
Kim Hyun-min went one step further and picked up his cup of tea that he had not touched yet.
“Kid. I’ll pay for it, so I’ll drink yours a little.”
p.
Then, Choi Min-hee’s fierce hand flew from behind his back.
“Ow.”
“Just order your own. Why are you drinking his?”
Kim Hyun-min rubbed his back and whined to Jang Jun-sik.
“Jun-sik, did you see that? This is what goes against the rules. Where do you see a team member hitting a team leader?”
“Then report it.”
Choi Min-hee snapped back, and Kim Hyun-min looked for Yoo-hyun this time.
“Han deputy, what do you think?”
“I don’t know.”
Yoo-hyun shrugged his shoulders, and Jang Jun-sik looked at him with a dumbfounded expression.
The streets of Insa-dong in broad daylight were definitely quieter than on weekends.
The part members who came out of the cafe looked around as if they were on a pic.
They all seemed to enjoy their rare escape.
“Team leader, no matter what, this is not right. This is against the rules…”
Jang Jun-sik tried to protest with a counter-argument, but Kim Hyun-min was not swayed at all.
“Hehe. It’s fine, don’t worry.”
“…”
Rather, Jang Jun-sik was dragged around by Kim Hyun-min.
Even though he was inflexible, he seemed to know how hard it was to be a team leader.
He didn’t make a fuss in front of him, at least.
Yoo-hyun was thinking that when Choi Min-hee came up to him and said.
“He must be flustered.”
“Jun-sik?”
“Yeah. He must have never seen someone like our team leader before.”
“Haha. You’re not wrong.”
Yoo-hyun nodded as he saw Jang Junsik being tightly held by Kim Hyunmin, the team leader. Then, Choi Minhee, the deputy manager, gave him a meaningful smile.
“You did well to bring them all.”
“Did you bring them, deputy manager?”
“Yes. Han Daeri was trying to carry all the burden by himself, so I stepped in.”
“Hey, there’s no burden at all. I really came here to get some fresh air.”
Yoo-hyun waved his hand as if he had been greatly misunderstood, but Choi Minhee’s mind was firm.
“You don’t have to hide it from me. You came out to teach Junsik, right?”
“Why do you think that?”
“Isn’t it because Junsik can’t get along with people and ys alone?”
Although it was not a wrong statement, Yoo-hyun did not think that deeply.
He just wanted to give Junsik some rest and enjoy some leisure.
There was no need to make excuses, so Yoo-hyun agreed.
“No. You’re right. You’re truly an excellent part leader.”
“Hoho. As an excellent part leader recognized by Han Daeri, can I say a word?”
“You can say two or three words.”
“Junsik is someone I care about too, so you can put down the burden on your shoulders.”
It was nice to be worried about, but it was not that serious at all.
Rather, Yoo-hyun also had some fun.
He expressed his honest feelings.
“I’m really having a good time.”
“You can put down more. You should also pay attention to your love life.”
Then, Choi Minhee added more.
She seemed to have wanted to say this from the beginning, as she showed a worried expression.
“Love life?”
“Yes. I’m afraid you’ll end up like Park Daeri if you stay still.”
When Park Seungwoo’s story came up, Choi Minhee seemed to be genuinely concerned.
It would be bad if more misunderstandings arose, so Yoo-hyun corrected her right away.
“That will never happen. And don’t worry, I’m paying a lot of attention to it.”
“Do you have someone you’re dating?”
Choi Minhee asked in surprise.
It was then that Kim Hyunmin’s loud voice came from the front.
“Hey. Let’s take a picture. Gather quickly.”
The part members were already lined up in front of the traditional scenery.
Jang Junsik was still wrapped around Kim Hyunmin’s arm.
His half-resigned expression looked very funny.
“Let’s go, deputy manager.”
Yoo-hyun gestured forward, and Choi Minhee looked disappointed.
“I want to hear more.”
“I’ll tell youter.”
Yoo-hyun smiled brightly and raised his hand in reply.
“Yes. Let’s go.”
Yoo-hyun ran ahead first, and Choi Minhee followed him.
Half a day after Yoo-hyun and his group left Insadong.
The office of New York Spirit Company was filled with apuse.
p p p p p.
There were also cheers from everywhere.
“Alice, congrattions onpleting the project.”
“Thank you.”
After finishing the pleasant greeting, Jeong Dahye returned to her seat.
Her colleague asked her as she looked around her seat.
“Alice, why? What are you looking for?”
“Nothing. There was no visitor who came looking for me, right?”
“No. There wasn’t. Why? Do you have someoneing?”
“No. Just wondering.”
Was it because of the memory of the roses delivered at thest projectpletion?
She thought maybe roses woulde again this time.
“Crazy. Why am I thinking that?”
Jeong Dahye muttered to herself.
Swoosh.
A man approached and handed her a rose.
“You’re Alice, right? Congrattions onpleting the project.”
“Huh? Oh, yes.”
It was the same deliverypany and the same message.
Jeong Dahye was not even surprised anymore.
She picked up her phone right away and sent him a warning message.
At that moment.
Yoo-hyun received a delivery confirmation message at home.
It meant that the flower had been delivered to Jeong Dahye properly.
What would her reaction be this time?
There was a subtle thrill of anticipation.
Yoo-hyun leaned back on hisputer desk chair and picked up his phone.
It seemed like it was time for him to contact him again.
Ring ring ring ring ring ring ring ring ring ring ring ring ring ring ring ring ring ring ring ring ring ring ring ring ring
Sure enough, his phone rang right away.
He chuckled and pressed the call button.
At the same time, Jeong Dahye’s voice echoed through the receiver.
She skipped the greetings as if showing her current mood.
-I told you not to send me things like thisst time, didn’t I?
“What are you talking about?”
-Don’t pretend you don’t know.
She spat out her words sharply, and Yoo-hyun pretended not to know.
“Oh, the thing you’re holding in your hand?”
-No.
Her voice was clearly angry, but why did it feel so familiar?
Yoo-hyun recalled the memory of meeting her in San Francisco and spoke casually.
“I bought you coffeest time. I don’t like free stuff.”
-Then let’s end it here. Let’s not have anything to do with each other from now on.
“Hey, you even made an international call for me. How can I do that?”
-Stop joking. I’m hanging up.
She pressed her voice down and checked his patience.
She must have been frowning right now.
It was obvious that she had a walnut wrinkle on her chin.
Yoo-hyun smiled and asked casually.
“Are you noting to Korea? I should at least treat you to a car.”
-I don’t have to see you even if I go.
“Still, if you ever think of me, please contact me. I’ll guide you for sure.”
-I won’t. Anyway, don’t send me things like this anymore. I’m hanging up.
As always, Jeong Dahye announced before hanging up the phone.
People’s personalities don’t change easily, they say. That phrase came to him anew.
“Okay. Congrattions again. See you soon.”
Click.
The call was cut off only after Yoo-hyun finished his words.
