Chapter 308:
Chapter 308
At that moment, in New York, USA.
Park Seung-woo, an assistant manager, was sitting alone in his accommodation, looking at the night view.
He had expected it to be not so pleasant, but it was lonelier than he thought.
He didn’t know what to do first.
Everything was awkward.
He kept thinking of the bustling and cozy office and sighed involuntarily.
“Sigh...”
He couldn’t give up so soon after coming so far.
He slapped his cheek and tried to wake himself up. He turned on his laptop screen.
Then, he saw a new shining email.
It was from Yoo-hyun.
-Things to pay attention to when doing MBA...
It was a long email, listing the things to pay attention to when doing MBA.
It was a living experience that was hard to find on the internet.
Park Seung-woo’s heart was touched by the email.
It was because of the care of his junior.
“My son. You told me to do it casually...”
He couldn’t take his eyes off the email for a long time.
Inside the sales and marketing office on the 12th floor of Hanseong Tower.
Yoo-hyun was there, facing Jo Chan-young, a senior manager.
Jo Chan-young had a very good expression.
He didn’t just have a good expression, he kept laughing.
“Hahaha. It’s so nice to meet the heroes of reversal.”
“Thank you.”
“And what you guys did really well...”
The praise kept pouring out.
It was time to stop, but he kept talking.
It was almost unbelievable.
Yoo-hyun looked at Kim Young-gil, a section chief, and he shrugged his shoulders.Fiind updated novels at novelhall.com
A little later, on the outdoor terrace on the 20th floor.
Yoo-hyun, who was leaning on the railing and drinking coffee, said to Kim Young-gil.
“When I came back from my business trip last week...”
Kim Young-gil, who had returned to work a few days earlier than Yoo-hyun, had been called around everywhere.
It was a business trip that had attracted a lot of attention from the upper management.
The presentation was positive, but there was no immediate result in hand.
Maybe that’s why?
At first, he only heard some perfunctory compliments, and soon they faded away.
But the situation completely reversed the day before yesterday.
Kim Young-gil made a grand gesture and explained the situation at that time.
“Then, the business director came down and praised us a lot.”
“In front of the manager?”
“Yes. The manager also got a lot of praise. He openly praised us.”
Yoo-hyun could imagine how Jo Chan-young’s expression would have been without seeing it.
He must have been in a good mood as if he had mania.
“That’s good.”
“You should have received such praise when you were here.”
Kim Young-gil made a regretful expression and Yoo-hyun replied with a good humor.
“I’d rather have something more direct than praise.”
“That’s right. The business director also mentioned that. There will be good news soon.”
“I’ll keep my expectations low.”
Kim Young-gil smiled at Yoo-hyun’s answer.
It was a smile that they had built after overcoming a difficult situation. It looked very light.
Kim Young-gil, who was smiling happily, suddenly asked.
“Oh, by the way, the group leader also said something.”
“What did he say?”
“He asked me to keep it a secret that I met Shin Sung-wook senior manager.”
“Did he?”
“Yes. He asked me more earnestly this time.”
It was an unusual behavior for Yeotae-sik executive director who was cautious.
Kim Young-gil might not understand it, so Yoo-hyun asked casually.
“Aren’t you curious why he did that?”
“No, I guess there must be an important reason. I just want to see Shin senior manager again.”
“Why?”
“I felt it while preparing together this time. I’m still not up to his standards.”
“You did well enough.”
“No. I want to work harder and show him a more impressive performance next time.”
Kim Young-gil focused on his inner self rather than political issues.
He looked stiff even in his walk.
“I, I...”
Kwon Se-jung grabbed his neck and Min Jeong-hyuk stuck out his tongue.
“Wow, he’s really stubborn.”
“Yoo-hyun, you saw it? If he comes under you, you’ll go crazy.”
It was true as Kwon Se-jung said in the past.
Jang Jun-sik, who moved from the marketing team to the product planning team, didn’t get along with Yoo-hyun at all.
That’s why Yoo-hyun was quite mean to him.
But this time it might be different.
“I don’t know.”
Yoo-hyun shrugged his shoulders as he watched Jang Jun-sik’s back.
Yoo-hyun went to the 11th floor this time.
There were many people he was glad to see in this place where the staff departments were gathered.
He took care of his colleagues from the general affairs team, HRD team, PR team and his junior Jo Eun-ah and moved to the personnel team.
There was someone he really wanted to meet here.
Yoo-hyun exchanged a few words with his personnel team colleague Seo Chang-woo and approached Park Doo-sik, a section chief.
He was sitting at his desk and looking at some documents.
He still had a sharp look in his round and kind face.
Yoo-hyun greeted him warmly with his former boss who had shared many memories with him in the past.
“Section chief, hello. I’m Han Yu-hyun.”
“Oh. I know. Long time no see.”
Park Doo-sik recognized Yoo-hyun and replied.
Yoo-hyun secretly handed him a chocolate.
“It’s cold these days. Have some sweets.”
“Why are you giving this to me?”
He blinked his eyes at Yoo-hyun’s gift and Yoo-hyun said to him.
“You picked me at the interview.”
“Hey, that’s because you did well.”
“Just take it. It’s my heart.”
Considering the help he had received from him in the past and would receive from him in the future, this was far from enough.
But he didn’t know that and Park Doo-sik put down the documents he was holding and said.
“I can’t just take it. Do you want some coffee?”
“Yes. That would be nice.”
It was exactly what he wanted, so Yoo-hyun gladly agreed.
Park Doo-sik was someone who had a connection with Yoo-hyun through Shin Sung-wook senior manager.
When Yoo-hyun moved to the group strategy office, he worked with him and taught him a lot of things.
They were all advice that became blood and flesh for him, and thanks to them, Yoo-hyun was able to grow.
He was a skilled person.
He was also someone he wanted to work with very much.
Yoo-hyun looked for him to make a connection in advance.
And there was something he wanted to check.
At the rest area on the 10th floor, Yoo-hyun faced Park Doo-sik, his former boss.
He scanned Yoo-hyun with his unique sparkling eyes.
It was just like when he taught Yoo-hyun how to observe things.
Yoo-hyun received his gaze with a relaxed smile.
Park Doo-sik admired Yoo-hyun who had no flaws at all.
“Yu-hyun is very special.”
“Why?”
“You don’t look like an employee at all.”
“Is that a compliment?”
Yoo-hyun asked with a good humor and he nodded his head and mentioned the past events.
“Of course. It’s a compliment. You were different from the interview anyway.”
“Aren’t you exaggerating?”
“No. I still remember it vividly. It was impressive.”
“I’m embarrassed.”
“That’s not all. You’re doing well at work, aren’t you?”
Yoo-hyun wondered why he kept praising him.
No matter how impressive he was, their connection was not yet strong.
He knew Park Doo-sik was not the type of person who was generous with compliments.
Yoo-hyun hid his thoughts and joked.
“I should have given you a bigger gift.”
“It’s not just a word. I’ve never seen a career like yours.”
Then, a word that caught Yoo-hyun’s ears popped out of Park Doo-sik’s mouth.
Even if he was in the personnel team, he had no reason to browse the personnel records as a hobby.
If he praised him so much, there was a high chance that he was looking for him from a high place.
It was something he wanted to confirm anyway, so Yoo-hyun glanced at him.
“Did the group strategy office look for me?”
“Huh? Did they already tell you?”
Yoo-hyun’s guess made Park Doo-sik fall for it.
