Chapter 171: Chapter 171 It was a scene that was completely different from his usual neat personality. How do you feel? I wanted to ask him. But not yet. He needed more time to regret and reflect on his actions, pounding the ground. Yoo-hyun’s lips curled slightly. What happened to Director Lee Kyung Hoon? He heard about his situation at the dinner with his colleagues. Min Jung Hyuk spat out his words, spraying saliva. “It’s no joke. Director Lee Kyung Hoon is practically resigning, they say.” “Really?” Min Jung Hyuk clicked his tongue at Yoo-hyun’s question. “Byun Jin Woo was also summoned. I heard he was involved too.” “What about the team?” “There’s nothing to say. It’s completely destroyed and the work is stopped. I wonder if Deputy Manager Song Ho Chan will come back.” “That’s not it.” Min Jung Hyuk asked in surprise when Yoo-hyun cut him off. “Why? Do you know something?” “I heard that Deputy Manager Song also invested a lot in D&Tech.” “Wow. That was D&Tech? Your team’s Deputy Manager Go Jae Yoon was also involved, right?” “Yes, that’s right.” “Wow... They both went down because of insider trading.” “That’s right.” It wasn’t a simple insider trading. Deputy Manager Song Ho Chan and Deputy Manager Go Jae Yoon gave money to the director of D&Tech and took shares under a different name. It was something that happened behind Director Lee Kyung Hoon’s back. If everything went according to plan, the two of them could have enjoyed the benefits while watching Director Lee Kyung Hoon’s tricks. Of course, they all ended up penniless. Yoo-hyun snorted, remembering the reporter Oh Eun Bi’s words. -The prosecution is investigating individuals who recently acquired shares. They are likely suspects for the technology leakage to China. If that was true, it was a relief that they only became penniless. The government was paying attention to the case, so it wouldn’t end with just an investigation. They had to reach a conclusion somehow. It meant that they had a high chance of spending a long time behind bars. Director Lee Kyung Hoon was second, but Deputy Manager Song Ho Chan and Deputy Manager Go Jae Yoon might have felt wronged. But it was inevitable. Even if they didn’t know, a crime was a crime. It was a tragic comedy caused by greed. Director Lee Kyung Hoon’s story was on the table throughout the dinner. It wasn’t just Yoo-hyun and his colleagues. Director Lee Kyung Hoon’s story was a hot issue in the mobile sales marketing department. It was a historic event. Didn’t Director Lee Kyung Hoon’s wish to become famous come true? Although the direction was not good. The story that started with Director Lee Kyung Hoon naturally moved to the internal story of the sales team. “Who’s coming to our team? Yoo-hyun, do you know?” “Team leader?” “Yeah. They won’t leave it empty. I think they’ll promote someone from the inside, but there’s no one with the rank.” “I don’t know.” Yoo-hyun didn’t answer right away because nothing was decided yet. Of course, there was a likely candidate. Team Leader Oh Jae Hwan. He was likely to become the sales team leader, and Deputy Manager Kim Hyun Min was likely to become the product planning team leader. “Ah, I hope whoever comes is a good person.” Min Jung Hyuk sighed and muttered. He felt the sincerity of his words, as he had suffered a lot because of the team leader. “It will be.” “Yeah. You’re always right.” Yoo-hyun chuckled at his colleague’s flattery. Team Leader Oh Jae Hwan was a bit timid and cared a lot about others. On the other hand, he paid attention to even the smallest things. He could suit Min Jung Hyuk, who wanted care. How could he be worse than Director Lee Kyung Hoon? That was never the case. A few days later, in the conference room on the 12th floor. Yoo-hyun and Assistant Manager Park Seung Woo took their seats in the empty conference room. Assistant Manager Park Seung Woo had a nostalgic expression. “Do you think the meeting atmosphere will be good today?” “Yes. Everyone replied to the meeting email right away.” “Yeah. There was also a compliment email saying the meeting agenda was good. It’s amazing.” “Don’t you like it?” Or will he fall under the pressure? It all depended on how Assistant Manager Park did in the future. Isn’t it hard? It was a hundred times better than having no chance at all. The good thing was, he had grown enough. On the way back, Assistant Manager Park looked at Yoo-hyun and shrugged his shoulders. “I don’t know if this is okay.” “Why?” “Just. It feels like a dream.” He was intoxicated with emotion. Yoo-hyun teased him. “Hey, the product hasn’t been commercialized yet, what are you talking about. Aren’t you too drunk?” “Hey.” “...” Suddenly, Assistant Manager Park burst out, remembering the teasing of Chief Choi Min Hee. Yoo-hyun walked ahead without a word and he followed him with quick steps. Then he tapped his shoulder and said. “I’m not drunk. Hey, I don’t have anything to be drunk about.” “Yes. That’s the right attitude.” “What? You sound like my mentor.” “Should I do that?” “...” Assistant Manager Park pursed his lips at Yoo-hyun’s cheeky answer. He lost his words because he said it so naturally. Yoo-hyun stopped for a moment and straightened his crooked tie with one hand. “Have a good day tomorrow.” “Of course.” A nice wrinkle appeared on Assistant Manager Park’s eyes. The next morning. Yoo-hyun was walking and answering the phone. Lee Chan Ho was with him. His friend Kang Joon Ki’s voice rang through the phone. -Hahaha. I’m the youngest winner. They said they’d send me to Okinawa as a reward. “Congratulations, you bastard.” -Hehehe. The German water is good. The boss is on fire. “You’re paying back what you got?” -Of course. Me and Assistant Manager Lim, we owe you a lot. “Tell that to Senior Chan Ho, not me.” Lee Chan Ho pointed at himself and grinned. Yoo-hyun smiled and nodded. -Of course. I know. You guys are good customers, so I, the excellent employee, will push you hard. “Good. Live well.” -I’ll buy you a lot of gifts when I go on a trip. Not toothpaste or anything. “Haha, get lost.” Yoo-hyun hung up the phone neatly. Lee Chan Ho next to him spoke. “That’s nice. Semi-conductor had a hard time.” “That’s right. It’s a good thing.” “Are you happy?” “I have a lot of good things these days.” Yoo-hyun laughed and Lee Chan Ho also followed suit. It was as Yoo-hyun said. As they walked, they arrived at their destination. Ding. Yoo-hyun and Lee Chan Ho opened the door of the flower shop and entered. The clerk was too busy to greet them, putting all his strength into making a bouquet. It was more like a wreath than a bouquet. It was literally huge. It covered the entire table. Gulp, Lee Chan Ho swallowed his saliva and whispered to Yoo-hyun. “Surely that’s not ours, right?” “It seems like it is.” “It’s pretty big.” “That’s right.” Yoo-hyun, who had been working for a long time, saw the size for the first time. Even when he was promoted to executive, when he received a group award, or even when he became president. He had never seen such a big and fancy bouquet. The clerk finally noticed the people who came in and opened his mouth. “Are you Han Yoo-hyun?” “Yes, that’s right.” “Haha. Here, the biggest and most splendid bouquet from our flower shop is done.” “Wow, that’s amazing.” As the clerk lifted the bouquet, Yoo-hyun couldn’t help but stutter.
