Revealing money is not a sin. If that is a sin, you have already committed all the sins you can commit and will have to pay for them in the afterlife. Therefore, we can never laugh at someone’s thorough calculations.
However, seals are different.
If you’re going to write it, you better write it properly. Lee Han looked down at the crude contract that was crumpled in his hands. If someone at the company had handed her a contract like this, she wouldn’t have gone far and just ordered her to write her resignation letter on the back, but she couldn’t do that.
Those sparkling eyes that held this out to me, full of anticipation, could never be called crude.
“I really worked hard to prepare for several days.”
I could guess that others must have been quite distressed that the bonus amount that had been rewritten in the special contract was crossed out several times. I guess it’s a good thing they didn’t laugh out loud there. Even thinking about it now, Lee Han’s cheeks twitched and he covered his mouth with his arm resting on the window frame.
“Chairman, I think Professor Yoon has arrived. “I guess you left early today.”
“… … “I guess so.”
What a thorough person you are.
The corners of Lee Han’s mouth, hidden by his long fingers, went up even more. He said he would go separately in case people at the hospital noticed, but it looks like he has already calculated that with his ‘thorough plan’.
I think he decided to try something else besides that.
Whether it was laughter or ridicule, I was so busy just holding back the emotions that were surging into tears that I couldn’t remember exactly what happened. The first meeting was okay, the subsequent developments were plausible, and all I could do was nod my head to Haejun, who was actively talking.
“Then how should I wear it? “Please tell me your preference.”
Still, I remembered our last conversation clearly. As I listened to her determination to try something other than a white gown, the black dress from a few days ago naturally came to mind.
Anything. as you please. Why did you do that to me?
As he hesitated to give the most familiar answer, Hae-jun took out the precious notebook again and presented a choice.
“Just say the word. Intellectually? Elegantly? hmm. Or like Lady Yojo?”
“finally.”
It was a little impulsive, but it didn’t seem like it would actually be that bad.
“Chairman, we’re all here.”
“… … Thank you for your effort “The customers will be similar to last time, right?”
“ah. When it was my wife’s birthday, a lot of people from the group came, so this time we invited a small group, mainly acquaintances. “There are people from the group and their children will also come.”
“okay. “It doesn’t matter as long as I arrive before my mother.”
“Hey, but… … .”
Lee Han, who had been indifferently listening to an answer that was not much different from what he expected, raised his eyes. Secretary Kang’s voice became cautious as Lee Han’s eyes flashed even blacker in the car without the lights on.
“My aunt in America said she would come too.”
“… … .”
Ah, that’s a bit much.
Until now, I had heard it with one ear and let it go with the other, but Lee Han’s eyebrows had noticeably lowered. Now that I think about it, the time has come. I heard it from Yuhan and his mother, but I didn’t know it would be today.
“I will arrive straight to the gallery with your wife. Is that okay?”
“It’s okay, what do you mean?”
“Don’t you know? What can the American wife say, a little… … .”
The living embodiment of matchmaking.
It was difficult to explain him better than this. She is the eldest daughter of a leading shipbuilding family in Korea, and she married the eldest son of a powerful political family early on and started her own family. Despite her home environment, which literally beat all the respectable, hard, and solemn things out of her… … .
“Don’t you really like ‘things like that’?”
“yes. ‘Something like that.’”
Dating and love, he was too absorbed in such things. I overcame the family environment, where it seemed like even if I tried to develop even a hint of affection, it would fall away, with only ‘that kind of will’. There are no more than three official marriages, and other scandals are countless. In the end, after being pushed out and cut off from her maternal family, she went to the United States, but even there, with her unyielding spirit, she found the true partner she so desperately wanted.
Considering the fact that his partner was the best wife in New York, it seems true that he is from a similar family.
“I’m sure Auntie America is coming to check on Professor Yoon.”
“I guess so.”
Lee Han’s throat rang at something that was obvious even without looking at it. I’m sure he’s not the kind of person who will stay still. He is a person who is very good at creating all kinds of miscellaneous and annoying coincidences that he has encountered so far. If her mother is just persistent, her aunt has an even more instinctive sense, making her an even more troublesome opponent.
Whether there is real affection or not, and whether there is a true partner.
To put it mildly, in its heyday, it was called a device for determining marriages of convenience. They took great pride in being able to perfectly capture each other’s feelings just from the glances they exchanged.
“But there are also good points. “If you thought it wasn’t right, you didn’t push it any further.”
“yes. “The problem was recognizing the next person.”
Lee Han couldn’t help but laugh at Secretary Kang’s non-consolation. Isn’t this someone who doesn’t know how to give up? I was sick of memorizing nonsense like a mantra, saying that one day I would meet my true love.
If it were someone else, they would throw me out, but I can’t because I’m his only aunt. Moreover, since her uncle was a tycoon who was shaking up the New York economy, she had to maintain a superficial sense of goodwill for the sake of the Seomun Group.
“Hmm, anyway, you are different from your wife in many ways. “I’m sure you’re going through a tough day today, but will Professor Yoon be okay?”
“It’ll be okay.”
After opening the car door and getting out, Lee Han’s answer was heartbreaking. Inside the gallery, the busiest place among them. Although it was a rare experience, her eyes were the first to react to where she was.
“… … .”
Here you go.
As expected, her smile as she turned around after feeling his gaze was refreshing. When the lady of the world who was among the people gently raised a hand, one corner of Lee Han’s mouth slid up.
“It’s not easy on the other side either.”
◇ ◆ ◇
With the appearance of Lee Han, the people around Hae Joon who had been trying to say a word or two left their seats. Even if he doesn’t explicitly kick him out or raise his hand, it’s because of Lee Han’s vibe that comes from deep in his bones, telling him to ‘don’t mess with people and leave them alone.’
“and… … .”
Hae-joon, who saw the people scattering around Ususoo, swallowed his admiration rather than admiration. Although I was acting calm, I was quite shocked in a situation like this. Still, the bright light returned to my eyes, which had lost strength for a moment for fear of looking bad to my employer.
“I arrived a little while ago and said hello to a few people, but they didn’t ask me more details than I expected.”
“Did you?”
“yes. That’s a good thing. I was worried for no reason. What can I say? membrane… … .”
“W-what?”
“You know, the one that appears in dramas.”
When I actually said it out loud, the content seemed childish. Hae-joon tried to explain it away by saying it was no big deal, but it was difficult to avoid Lee-han’s gaze, which became particularly persistent at times like this.
“There are a lot of things that appear at chaebol parties in dramas and the like. “They go through all the trouble of investigating family records, being on guard, and arguing about why they came here.”
“… … “What kind of drama did I watch?”
“Oh, not me, anyway. “A kid who watches a lot of dramas.”
Hae-joon chewed his mouth in embarrassment as he remembered Hyeon-oh, whom he had briefly talked to on the phone in the morning. Although there is no one around him who knows about the chaebol, no one can match Hyun-oh in terms of indirect experience in the drama. However, looking at Lee Han who is so embarrassed that he even frowns, it looks like the drama will end as a drama.
“Anyway, everyone greeted me and treated me better than I expected. “No one said anything that would offend anyone or ask questions.”
“Of course it was.”
Who did you come as as a partner?
Lee Han’s smile, pulled up at an angle, was meaningful. She had never seen the kind of drama she was talking about, but she at least knew how cunning these people were.
From one end to the other.
I don’t know about the ladies here, but I’m sure everyone has learned enough about Haejun since his mother’s birthday. But all other details aside, she came with herself.
That’s it.
If you are Seo Yi-han’s guest, or more than that, no one would dare to be rude to her. It’s not just pride; that’s the rule of this world. It may be difficult to dare to use the word ‘livelihood’ in this place, but most people live in the Seomun Group.
“why? Why is it obvious?”
“… … .”
Still, if you ask with such curiosity, I’m willing to turn things around a bit.
“just… … Because everyone wants to live a long and prosperous life.”
There are some who go on a rampage without knowing what is going on, or engage in unseemly provocations and arguments, but such foolish people are basically filtered out by Mother Good. That was also the reason why her Lee Han didn’t feel too anxious the last time she was away for her birthday or when he found out that she arrived alone first today.
“no way… … “What is that?”
“Why, as if you’re not Hae-jun Yoon.”
“under.”
At Lee Han, who naturally raised his eyebrows as if asking a question, Hae Joon burst into laughter as if he was dumbfounded. Still, it was difficult for me to forget that today I am a woman worth ’10 million won’. When he felt the gaze of others whispering from afar, Hae-joon quickly straightened his posture and Lee-han laughed lightly.
“And what are you worried about? “A person who is so thorough.”
He glanced at Hae-joon’s clothes. Today, she wore a soft ivory two-piece, and the slender neckline was elegant beneath her loosely pulled hair. In other words, he got his money’s worth.
