Real Man-Chapter 780
Yoo-hyun expressed his sincere feelings.
“Jang-woo, thank you and I’m sorry.”
He then hugged him warmly, ignoring his awkwardness.
Squeeze.
‘How did I raise this kid?’
“Jang-woo, whenever you’re having a hard time, come to me. I’ll comfort you.”
“I’ll definitely visit you with Jaehui.”
“If you buy me a drink, that is.”
“Sure… whatever.”
Yoo-hyun swallowed his words and looked at his beloved brother with a tender gaze.
It was too late to turn back now.
That day, Jaehui and Jang-woo ended their flirtation.
Yoo-hyun, who had a good drink, asked Jang-woo to take care of Jaehui.
He staggered, but still tried to look after Jaehui with wide eyes.
Shiver.
Jeong Da-hye, who was watching their backs, muttered.
“It seems like Jaehui is supporting Jang-woo.”
“He’s the champion when it comes to drinking.”
“Haha. That’s true. Even the Europeans were amazed. They asked me how it was at the party…”
As she spoke, it seemed like Jaehui had spread the Korean drinking culture widely.
Yoo-hyun chuckled and said.
“Shall we have a drink by ourselves now?”
“Sounds good. Oh, right.”
“What?”
“I have some materials that I prepared before work, and I want to show you in advance. When would be a good time for you?”
Yoo-hyun was dumbfounded.
“You’re saying that in this situation?”
“I’m meeting the River employees for the first time. I don’t want to look sloppy.”
“Who would think you’re sloppy?”
“I’m just a little nervous. So please spare me some time.”
“If you hug me.”
“What are you saying?”
Jeong Da-hye was incredulous, but she hugged Yoo-hyun anyway.
Smooch.
“I missed you, oppa.”
Yoo-hyun’s lips curled up at the kiss on his cheek.
Was it because he was tired and drank a lot?
The next day, Yoo-hyun slept a long sleep.
He thought he was finally settled, but a sudden news broke out.
The picture showed a fan taking a photo with a phone at the airport.
Jang-woo, who had taken off his mask, was the center of attention, and Jaehui’s face was barely visible.
But not enough to fool his mother.
His mother, who called him, asked him again.
-Is that Jaehui?
“Yes. It is. She’ll contact you soon. She seems a bit out of it right now.”
-How wonderful.
“Mother, are you okay?”
-What do you mean by that? Of course I’m okay. He’s Jang-woo, the player.
Jang-woo had been a regular customer of his mother’s side dishes for a long time, and he had also been the model for her favorite ramen brand.
Besides, he had a reputation for being kind and diligent, which spread through the gimbap shop, and his mother liked him very much.
‘I’m glad she likes him.’
Yoo-hyun felt relieved, but his mother asked him curiously.
-But why does Jang-woo like our Jaehui?
“You shouldn’t say that, mother.”
-Why? Don’t you think it’s strange, Yoo-hyun?
“Well, it is… no. Jaehui has charm. She’s nice.”
Yoo-hyun tried to soothe his mother, just like Jeong Da-hye did, but his mother was cold.
-She’s not the nice type.
“She’s a bit picky, isn’t she?”
-A bit? I was really worried that she wouldn’t get married.
“Married? They just started dating.”
-Anyway. I can’t believe our Jaehui brought such a great guy. My prayers must have worked.
“…”
‘She would have gone crazy if she heard that.’
He thought he shouldn’t tell her this.
Yoo-hyun sighed after hanging up the phone.
“Phew. I’m so out of it.”
He was distracted by Jang-woo and Jaehui, and he didn’t have much time to talk to Jeong Da-hye.
What bothered him the most was Jung Minkyo, the CEO of A1.
-I’m afraid we’ll run into each other in the same building. I don’t know what to do.
He should have told her sooner, but things got delayed for various reasons.
He had to tell her before he officially started working.
Where should he tell her?
‘Well, she’s coming to my house tonight…’
Jeong Da-hye wanted to share the materials she had prepared before work with Yoo-hyun.
It wouldn’t be too long, so he thought he could talk about Jung Minkyo over a drink after finishing the review.
He was wondering what her reaction would be, when he turned on his laptop and connected it to the living room TV.
Beep.
His phone rang and the messenger With blinked.
-River management bot: Jeong Da-hye ID card registration. 2:18 PM.
“Huh? Why is Da-hye at Future Tower right now…”
And today was the weekend, so the office was empty.
Yoo-hyun was nervous.
At that moment.
Jeong Da-hye, who had finished the registration at the first floor information desk of Future Tower, received her ID card.
She needed this to enter the office.
‘I’ll feel better if I check it out in advance.’
Jeong Da-hye didn’t want to look lost in front of the employees.
Swoosh.
As she turned around, a middle-aged man in a management uniform gave her a familiar look.
“Huh? Are you by any chance Jung…”
“Director Shim, this is Jeong Da-hye.”
The security guard who handed her the ID card answered, and the man clapped his hands.
“Right, Jeong Da-hye. Are you here to see the CEO?”
“No. He’s not here, is he?”
“That’s true. I wish I had told him to come if I knew this would happen.”
Why is he saying that?
Jeong Da-hye tilted her head, not understanding his meaning.
“You’re talking about Han Yoo-hyun, the CEO, right?”
“Han, the chairman?”
This time, the man blinked his eyes in confusion.
Jeong Da-hye asked, feeling that something was off.
“Chairman?”
“Oh, I shouldn’t call him chairman. Anyway, aren’t you here to see your father?”
“…”
“Isn’t Jeong Min-gyo, the CEO, your father? I saw you in the picture hanging in his office.”
The man spoke cheerfully, but Jeong Da-hye’s eyes darkened.
“Excuse me, but can you tell me more?”
“Um…”
The man sensed that something was wrong.
There was another person who realized that something was wrong.
Jeong Min-gyo’s voice came from Yoo-hyun’s phone.
-Sim, the director, said it, so it must be true. Da-hye was in the building.
“I already know that.”
-He said you looked unhappy after hearing my story… Sigh. I guess I have to step in.
Jeong Min-gyo’s voice sounded very anxious.
He thought he had gotten closer to his daughter, but he was worried that it might go wrong again.
Yoo-hyun decided not to leave it like that.
“No. I’ll talk to her first.”
-Da-hye is very stubborn. If she changes her mind, she won’t change it back.
‘I know that better than anyone.’
Yoo-hyun hid his inner thoughts and reassured him.
“Don’t worry. I’ll talk to her nicely.”
-Are you sure?
“Yes. I’ll contact you soon.”
Yoo-hyun hung up the phone and leaned back on his chair.
‘Of all times.’ freёnovelkiss.com
He was going to tell her today, but the situation got messed up.
What was Jeong Da-hye feeling?
She might be disappointed or betrayed by what he didn’t tell her.
Or she might misunderstand his actions.
He couldn’t predict anything because his family was involved.
He had no choice but to talk to her in person.
Swipe.
Yoo-hyun picked up his phone and contacted Jeong Da-hye.
Soon after, Yoo-hyun faced Jeong Da-hye at his home.
Jeong Da-hye’s data was displayed on the living room TV.
She held the mouse and said.
“First, let me tell you about the fashion review method I organized in France.”
“I’ve seen the data.”
“No. I have to tell you verbally. That way, I can check the level of the staff.”
Did she think he didn’t know?
He knew very well that the security guard was connected to Jeong Min-gyo or Yoo-hyun.
She seemed to be hiding it on purpose, so Yoo-hyun went along with it.
“Okay. Then I’ll tell you the direction the staff thought of.”
“Okay.”
Click.
She switched the screen and explained the details.
“First of all, the fashion review took a different approach from the IT review. The evaluation was subjective, and the designers’ pride was at stake…”
Unlike the IT review, the fashion review had a high demand but low accessibility.
Moreover, the luxury brands imposed a lot of restrictions on reviews or articles for their brand image management.
Jeong Da-hye spent more than a month in Europe to improve this problem.
“So you got the permission from the major companies?”
“The channel’s permission was a big deal. And thanks to Perez Bago’s support, I was able to expand the scope faster.”
“The channel VVIP invitation event was a good connection.”
“That’s right. They were the center and helped me expand quickly.”
Jeong Da-hye had already successfully created and verified the fashion review test version.
The only thing left was to confirm whether this model worked well in Korea.
Yoo-hyun asked on behalf of the staff’s curiosity.
“What are you going to do in Korea?”
“I have to do the same work as I did in Europe. But I don’t think it will be that hard.”
“Because you already signed a contract with the major luxury brands?”
“Yes. Once the promotional effect of River Review is proven, they will flock to it. This part is important, but…”
Yoo-hyun looked at her absorbed face.
She avoided his eyes deliberately as she continued the conversation.
He could feel the stress from her occasional breaths.
What should he do?
It wasn’t a problem that would be solved by thinking long.
When the flow was interrupted, Yoo-hyun asked.
“Do you want to take a break?”
“No. Let’s finish it.”
“I want to take a break. Let’s go out.”
“…”
Thump.
Yoo-hyun got up and Jeong Da-hye had no choice but to follow him.
Trudge trudge.
Yoo-hyun walked with Jeong Da-hye in the park in front of his house.
The warm coffee in his hand melted his shrunken body in the chilly weather.
The sunset was setting in the sky.
Thud.
Yoo-hyun sat on the bench and asked Jeong Da-hye.
“Did you go to the company today?”
“Yes.”
“You should have gone with me.”
“I just wanted to look around by myself. I also had something to do nearby.”
Yoo-hyun looked at her calmly drinking coffee.
“I have something to tell you.”
“Tell me.”
“It’s about my father.”
“…”
Her eyes shook for a moment.
Yoo-hyun confessed.
“I thought I needed a security company in the future. There was a company that came out at a bargain price. I was worried about how to run it…”
He told her the story of Aiwon from the beginning to the present.
Jeong Da-hye stared blankly at the air and drank her coffee silently.
“…”
Yoo-hyun told her everything without hiding.
“At first, I didn’t have any feelings for my father. To be more honest, I didn’t want to see him working hard as an apartment security guard.”
“…”
“But later, I changed my mind. Thanks to my father’s kindness, I didn’t have anything to worry about. Aiwon, which started small, grew as well. And…”
He also told her about Aiwon’s vision and direction.
Jeong Min-gyo was at the center of it.
