All other words are blurred, but this is also a problem because it is too easy to hear. The center director grinned when a surprised Haejun raised his head, wondering if it was a problem that I was at the top.
“It’s nothing else, but I think our hospital is planning to open a separate transplant center in Ilsan this time. It’s almost certain that it’s already been reviewed. “If Hae-joon likes you, I’d like to set up a place for you.”
“Center Director.”
“I know you wanted to go there from the beginning. If you have the skills, I would recommend it. how is it?”
“… … that is. I am.”
“There’s still some time, so don’t think too hastily. I’m paying special attention to you because I’m Jun. know? ah… … “I have to go there.”
Hae-joon forced the corners of his mouth to stretch as he watched the center director patting his shoulder. She reflexively bowed her head to the center director who left first, saying that there was someone looking for her.
“… … “Suck.”
no. You don’t know anything yet.
Hae-joon, who had lost all his strength, could not even think of lifting his head and held his breath. I know very well how dangerous it is to be swept up in just one rumor.
then!
Not only were none of the rumors about Lee Han right now, but I also didn’t hear anything from him directly. Even though I hadn’t known him for long, I was confident that Lee Han would never deceive someone enough to get married without my knowledge.
Of course, if Mrs. Cha is someone who can wipe out all the jewelry stores in Seoul, or if she has a strong will to see her daughter-in-law somehow, then I can’t refute it… … .
“What are you doing here?”
“ah.”
Hae-joon suddenly came to his senses at the shadow cast over his head. Even if he was only a shadow, he was a man who could never be confused from the moment you entered it.
“This is why I can’t take my eyes off you.”
“What is it, suddenly… … . ah. This.”
Hae-joon, who pretended like nothing was wrong, raised his head and looked blankly at the bouquet of flowers that appeared before his face. The white peonies and hydrangeas in his hands were as fresh as the bouquet I had missed.
“yes. “I suddenly felt like that.”
“But why are you doing this?”
“… … .”
Hae-joon didn’t know what to do, so he received a bouquet of flowers. So did you go to buy this? As I buried my face in the flowers, unable to bear to look at him, Lee Han’s meaningful voice rang out.
“I feel like my life would be so meaningless if I couldn’t do this much.”
◇ ◆ ◇
After finishing the meeting with the board of directors, Lee Han returned straight to his office. When Secretary Kang, who had been waiting in the secretary’s office first, bowed his head, Lee Han led him inside with a light nod.
“When did Secretary Kang arrive?”
“It hasn’t been long. “The Chairman asked me to personally escort the VIP room patient to the airport as a courtesy to the company when he was discharged.”
“ah… … “I guess that’s already happened.”
My days went by without a hitch, but other people’s months went by in the blink of an eye. With everyone talking so much ahead of the review of the heart transplant center, I wanted to just push ahead with my personality, but now that I’ve made up my mind, I’m using up all the patience I have left.
Immediately, Lee Han, who had a hard time sleeping last night, sat down on his desk looking tired, and Secretary Kang took a step closer. The slightly embarrassed expression on his face seems to indicate that this is difficult news.
“It’s the card you mentioned before. “I searched through the records room just in case, but since they are not related to the company and were received personally by the Chairman, I think it will be difficult to find more.”
“I can’t help it.”
Lee Han’s voice was calm, as if he had expected this. The last time I received letters and cards, I expected that if they weren’t here, they really weren’t there anymore. Nevertheless, every time I opened the letters in the box one by one, that feeling came back to me.
With all the endless situations and formal thank yous, I found someone’s letter in the meantime and how new it felt.
Hello, unknown sponsor.
It was a colorful card that was so childish that it seemed to turn color when touched. He was going to want money anyway, but at first I found it funny that he didn’t even have the heart to properly invest in a decent card, and I was surprised the second time because the content of the letter that started like that surprisingly didn’t ask for money.
I won’t reveal my name because the sponsor doesn’t seem to want to reveal his name.
Thirdly, yes. It was bold.
It was at that time that I burst out laughing instead of covering the letter I was about to pass over. I think I probably laughed the whole time I read it.
A clear and neat handwriting that doesn’t look good on a childish card, and a solemn resolve that can be felt in it. As I chuckled at the irony I felt there, I had already reached the end of the short letter.
I think that when we meet again someday, you will probably know my name. Until then, if you trust me.
Whether it’s sincere or not, I learned that if a person is this serious, it’s polite to at least reply. His fingertips holding a pen left a message other than a scribbled signature. Even though it was only a short note compared to the letter I received, the memories of that time came back to me even after a long time.
When I entered the business field and couldn’t feel a single sincerity in the many documents and letters that poured in to me, I regretted not keeping that card whenever I saw people trying to get even the slightest response from me.
If that were the case, I would have held it out to show off.
If you want to hear a straight answer from me, shouldn’t you at least show this level of sincerity?
“… … .”
Since the card disappeared, there was only one post that felt sincere to Lee Han. It may not be easy to have that kind of determination in this busy and harsh world. Lee Han licked his lips as he remembered Hae Joon’s contract sleeping in his drawer.
Even if it’s not necessarily money or love, someone’s earnest sincerity can be conveyed. Lee Han couldn’t help but feel a strange feeling every time he thought of her determined and cute will to pay me back at any cost.
I understand that desperate feeling, but what can I do?
Because I can no longer listen to those feelings.
Hae-joon was anxious, as if she was ready to fly away at any time, but she became even more so after the wedding. While I was away, she was with the head of the Korea University Center and was quiet, as if lost in thought.
“I know you wanted to go there from the beginning. If you have the skills, I would recommend it. how is it?”
“… … that is. I am.”
Did I really expect him to shake his head right away?
The corner of her mouth that remained particularly quiet made my heart tingle as I watched. If you think about it, it would have been inevitable from Hae-joon’s perspective. It would be difficult for him to say no on the spot to a Korean university professor and center director.
However, even with that obviously predictable scene, my heart was not in the same mood. If her feelings were that simple in the first place, it would be inexplicable for her to turn her hotel upside down like a crazy person to get the bouquet of flowers that she couldn’t catch.
As fast as an hour, even as fast as a second.
I wanted to put a lot of it in Hae-joon’s hands. Even though I knew that I could have prepared a more beautiful and extravagant bouquet with just one phone call, I still ran to the main building of the hotel on my own.
As if Yoon Hae-jun was embarrassed or surprised and didn’t know what to do, no. No matter what, as long as you smile at me.
“Are you sure you don’t like it?”
“Oh, no! listen. It’s just so… … “Because it’s pretty.”
The right corner of the woman’s mouth trembles when she forces herself to smile. I don’t know if she realized it before I knew it, but the moment I met Hae-jun looking up at me while touching the flower petals, I realized that I didn’t just want that kind of smile.
“You can be honest. “Just as you think,”
“What about Lee Han?”
“… … .”
“Mr. Lee Han, do you have anything to say to me?”
Hae-joon’s eyes were trembling as he looked up, holding a bouquet just like mine, and his eyes narrowed. What can I say? If you bought a bouquet in advance, you should get a feel for it. A smart woman doesn’t know that, so she asks. At first she was dumbfounded and then embarrassed, leaving her speechless.
… … Anyway, isn’t it a bit weird to propose at someone else’s wedding?
“… … Mr. Hae-jun Yoon.”
“Ah, just kidding. joke.”
At that moment, she burst out laughing. She said it was a joke and that she would accept the pretty flowers and smiled, but the right corner of her mouth was trembling as if she could not see it at that time.
“… … Secretary Kang. “Am I not trustworthy?”
“yes? “What is that all of a sudden?”
“I was wondering if a man like me might not be very trustworthy.”
“ah… … .”
What kind of world are you asking such useless and trivial questions?
Unable to express his true feelings, Secretary Kang scratched his cheek. Lee Han is the first man to turn every single word of his into reality since he was the division commander of the unit he served as a soldier. He is the only man who can move mountains and scoop out oceans. He wasn’t exactly friendly or likable, but it was clear that he was at least the kind of man you’d want to hide behind on Earth’s last day.
“No way. “I don’t know who on earth would say something like that.”
“… … no.”
Lee Han rubbed his head as he saw Secretary Kang shaking his head excessively. He asked everything. I have no intention of letting her go anyway, so how could what she thinks of others matter?
You have to hear the answer yourself.
