Chapter 161: Chapter 161 During the interview, Deputy Manager Kim Hyun-min showed a strong reaction. “No, how can Ilsung do such a despicable thing? Isn’t that right?” “They are like that.” “Ha ha! I knew you would understand me, reporter.” He was a bit outspoken, but the overall atmosphere was smooth. Reporter Oh Eun-bi also asked about something she was curious about personally. It was a question about Laura Parker, whom she didn’t hear from Yoo-hyun. She deliberately added some speculative opinions. “I heard that Laura Parker mentioned the color phone in the interview because of your request, Yoo-hyun?” “What? Yoo-hyun, did you ask her to do that?” Deputy Manager Kim Hyun-min asked and Yoo-hyun shook his head. “No. There’s no way I would do that.” “Of course. There’s no way. Reporter, he’s so handsome and smart that he’s close with Laura Parker, but...” Deputy Manager Kim Hyun-min nodded and then Park Seung-woo suddenly interjected. “He’s my mentee.” “You’re too fast. Anyway, he says he’s not. There’s no reason for him to do that. Right?” “Yes.” Deputy Manager Kim Hyun-min said as if to confirm, and Yoo-hyun smiled and nodded. To Reporter Oh Eun-bi’s eyes, there were some strange points in their conversation. It was one thing that the part-timers didn’t know, but Yoo-hyun didn’t show any sign of doing well. Shouldn’t he brag about it if he did something good? Not only that. Yoo-hyun never stepped forward during the interview. He just listened quietly and gave credit to the part-timers. It seemed to Reporter Oh Eun-bi that he was considerate of the part-timers. He, the youngest. It was so unbelievable that it gave her a headache. Then, Deputy Manager Kim Hyun-min, who had been talking non-stop, said in a serious tone. “Actually, to tell you the exact history, Yoo-hyun first...” “Deputy Manager, no. We did it together.” Yoo-hyun tried to avoid it, but this time it was Chief Choi Min-hee who stepped in. “When I was struggling because of Hyunil Motors...” “No. When did I? You did it all, Chief.” Yoo-hyun escaped again like a mudfish. But there was another trouble. Lee Chan-ho, who had a soldier-like posture, gave Yoo-hyun a smile. “When he made the mock-up, what Yoo-hyun said was...” “Senior, don’t say that again. You did it, Senior.” Yoo-hyun waved his hand. Reporter Oh Eun-bi smiled as she listened quietly. The seniors also had one mind to praise the youngest. The junior denied it and pushed the senior. The seniors pulled him back to the front. Kim Young-gil said, and Park Seung-woo said. “You should be praised for doing well.” “Right. Yoo-hyun, you lack that kind of sentiment.” It was a scene that could not be seen anywhere. At some point, Reporter Oh Eun-bi just looked at them. Yoo-hyun looked at the part-timers sitting next to him with wonder. They had become close while doing the contest together, but there was some distance between them. They were not friends, but a relationship with ranks. But that relationship changed subtly when they came to the German exhibition. It wasn’t just because of the alcohol they drank for three days. They made mistakes, got sick, got annoyed, laughed and talked. They shared their emotions in real time as they stuck together, and they became close like school seniors and juniors. Was that why? It was more like a chat than an interview. They joked, teased, said mean things, and sometimes got serious. It was a sight that she couldn’t imagine when she interviewed them before. The affection that she felt in every word tickled Yoo-hyun’s heart. He smiled involuntarily. He liked it so much. Click. He wished that this moment would not disappear and last forever, like the picture he just took. After the interview. Yoo-hyun, who had sent off the part-timers, approached Reporter Oh Eun-bi. “Is it a bit noisy?” What if it wasn’t? He couldn’t help it. If Oh Eunbi had moved as Yoo-hyun intended and failed, he would have apologized and compensated her. Yoo-hyun didn’t want to check the stolen TV. He wanted to see how actively she moved with such a small clue. And he was curious how cleverly she solved the homework he had given her. If she was smart, she would have used the people around her. And she did. Yoo-hyun smiled coldly. Now he was thinking of taking care of the rest. With not much time left, the scenario would be finalized according to her decision. Yoo-hyun stopped by the main booth C on the first floor to check the situation and went out to the hallway. And he used the computer set up in one corner to check the internet news. <Germany’s JS, decides to invest heavily in Korea’s LCD equipment company DNTech.> There was no follow-up article to the news he had checked in the morning. There weren’t many comments either. Yoo-hyun’s eyes caught the name of the press at the end of the article. Hanse Ilbo. A press classified as a pro-Hanseong faction, and also connected to the ‘Hangolmo’ line. It was a disadvantage that they were not a major company and had weak influence. And the article they wrote was not that impactful. That was the definite reason why there was not a single comment. But not for Yoo-hyun. Yoo-hyun kept checking the time the article was posted and the progress of the follow-up article. Through this, he drew the progress and the events that would happen in the future in his head. Of course, this also included the actions of Lee Kyunghoon, the director. The most likely time for the follow-up article to come out was tonight. They would aim for the peak day of the exhibition, as they wanted to get attention. Then what? The conclusion would be neat if it was done tomorrow, the day after the news broke. Yoo-hyun organized his thoughts and walked. It was when Yoo-hyun passed by the main booth of Hanseong Electronics. ‘Huh?’ A woman with a short-cut style passed by Yoo-hyun with a quick step. It was a fleeting moment, but her face was clearly visible. Jeong Dahye? Was it because he was dazed? Yoo-hyun’s body moved half a beat late. When he turned his head, the woman was already gone. “Hey.” Yoo-hyun ran forward, breaking through the crowd. But there was no Jeong Dahye he was looking for. He quickly turned around, but he couldn’t find her. Did he see wrong? No. He was sure he saw her. But how likely was it that he would meet her by chance in Germany? The probability was lower than winning the lottery. It stopped Yoo-hyun’s thoughts. It couldn’t be. He shook his head vigorously. He seemed to have been too nervous about this job. His head was dizzy. “What time is it...” He barely came to his senses and checked the time. He still had a lot of things to do to proceed as planned. At that time. Jeong Dahye walked through the main exhibition hall with a fast pace. She had no interest in the flashy exhibits. One of the employees of Cosmo Cosmetics, her client company, stopped her. “Dahye, JS seems to be busy. We’re fine, so just go.” “Manager, that’s not it. I wouldn’t have come to Germany if that was the case.” Jeong Dahye came to Germany as the company’s representative for the client’s consulting. She was supposed to act as a bridge to learn organic cosmetics technology from JS, a cosmetics specialist company. If the company had no room, they should have told her sooner. Then she could have arranged another company. Now they were making excuses? No matter how much they were the superior, there was a limit.
