Chapter 229: The Council of the Seven Stars (5)

Haha I didnt realize you two were in a relationship. Sorry to bother you. Namgung Hui smiled and nervously scratched his neck to the point where the skin reddened. He glared at Ohjin and just barely managed to stay composed enough to say, I hope you both enjoy the party.

After that, he left in a hurry and returned to his seat, but he occasionally stole glances back at Ha-eun, who sat firmly on Ohjins lap.

Crack

Hui violently gritted his teeth.

Ohjin smiled and put his arm around Ha-euns waist. He must have a crush on you.

Fufu. I am a great beauty, after all, she proudly said while flicking her ponytail.

Ha-eun burst out laughing and tightened her arms around Ohjins neck. Arent my clothes pretty?

Theyre a bit revealing

Doesnt that only make them better?

Its best if Im the only one who sees so much of you. He took off his coat and draped it around her shoulders.

She wrapped the coat around herself and let off a bashful laugh before leaning in close to his ear and whispering, "Okay. I'll save it just for you."

He knew how cringey the line was, so why did he smile so much?

She giggled and stoked his head before frowning down at the empty table. Did you seriously eat it all?

"Of course not." He held out the food hed been hiding from her, still warm due to the temperature being maintained through faint electromagnetic waves.

"When did you learn this skill?" she asked, removing herself from his lap and sitting next to him. "Cut it for me~"

"No, eat it on your own."

"Huh. Won't you listen to me?" She opened her mouth like a baby bird waiting for food.

Ohjin laughed, cut the steak, and placed it in her waiting mouth.

"Hehe. It's good."

"Eat slowly."

Ha-eun embraced his arm and rubbed her cheek against his shoulder like a cat.

General Manager Han held back his tears with a deep sigh. Im sad, really sad yeah, its a sin to be single at this age. A sin.

It was a particularly lonely night for him.

The next day

After breakfast, Ohjin met with Han and asked him about the days schedule. "So I have to go to the conference room on the fiftieth floor by 12:30?"

"Yes, that's what I was told." Han handed over the schedule he had taken from the management team.

Ohjin couldnt make heads or tails of it since it was written in Chinese. "Did you learn Chinese, Manager Han?"

"Yes, you can translate with relics, but you can't read or write. Other than Chinese, I also know a little English, Japanese, and Russian."

Ill have to wait until the start of the competition to know exactly how good they are, Ohjin said.

"I believe you have enough ability to join the Seven Stars," General Manager Han sincerely said.

Ohjin smirked. "I have to." If he failed to join, there was no way to step into the Milky Way Spring. Its almost time.

"Oh, yes. Have a safe trip."

Ohjin said goodbye to Manager Han and went up to the fiftieth floor.

Is it over there? When he tried to enter the conference room after looking at the map on the wall

"You are not allowed in at this time." A large man approached and blocked the entrance.

"I can't enter?" Ohjin asked.

"The meeting started at noon. We can't allow you to enter in the middle of the meeting."

What was he talking about? "I was informed the meeting would start at 12:30."

"There must have been a mistake. The meeting started at noon." The man, who had a sturdy frame and square jaw, shook his head with a determined look.

Ohjin continued to think about what kind of shitty situation it was when the pattern of the Shanghai Tower embroidered on the bodyguards suit caught his eye.

Wei, was it? Are you working for him?

Mr. Wei is the sponsor who made the biggest contribution to making sure that the Council of the Seven Stars could proceed smoothly.

Oh. So that was what happened. So they gave me the wrong schedule from the start, is that it? A disbelieving laugh left Ohjin's mouth. He didnt expect them to do such a cute thing after dissing him in front of so many people.

This should also be Namgung Hui's doing. He figured there was a connection between Namgung Hui and Mr. Wei, the sponsor of the Council of Seven Stars after the show with the fans.

"So you're not going to let me in now, right? Ohjin asked. Even though Im a candidate?"

"I'm sorry. I'll send you separate notes on the meetings contents later." The square-jawed man shook his head and gave Ohjin a wooden expression.

Haa. Ohjin sighed deeply and swept his hair back. "Let's see" He folded his fingers one by one. One, two, three "Yes." No matter how he looked at it, it seemed like it had been over three times.

"What are you doi"

Exceed.

Kzzzt!!

He wrapped his body in lightning and kicked the man blocking the door in the stomach.

"Keukk!" The man bounced back and smashed through the door before rolling into the conference room.

"Wh-what?"

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

"What is this all of a sudden?"

Ohjin strolled through the smashed door and entered the noisy conference room.

There, he saw a long table with 28 seats. He walked to the empty seat and pulled the chair out. "This is my seat, right?"

A cold silence fell over the room.
