Chapter 402:

Yoo-hyun smiled faintly at his distorted face.

It was nothing for him to turn the tables in this situation.

But he held back, because he wanted to see Kim Hyun-mins managers actions.

He also had a reason to thank Lee Bon-seok, the team leader who gave him a rather unfamiliar experience.

He offered him a snack with gratitude.

Swoosh.

It was a snack that Yoo-hyun didnt like, so he didnt even tear the wrapper.

Have some while you work. It feels like were the only ones eating.

What are you doing right now?

Lee Bon-seok, the team leader, snorted in disbelief as Yoo-hyun clapped his hands.

Oh, a drink.

Then he reached out to Lee Chan Ho, the deputy who was two steps away.

Deputy Lee, can you give me a drink over there?

Huh? Oh.

People tend to lose their words when they encounter a situation that is out of their expectations.

Lee Bon-seok, the team leader, was exactly that case.

Chirp.

As Lee Chan Ho, the deputy, poured a drink into a paper cup, Yoo-hyun quickly tore the snack and returned to his seat gracefully.

That kid.

Lee Bon-seok, the team leader, snapped belatedly, and Choi Min-hee, the team leader, stepped in.

He looked somewhat relieved.

Team Leader, please continue what you were saying. You talked about the snack regulations.

Huh. Are you kidding me right now? Is it because Team Leader Choi is too nice that this is happening?

Yes. Ill make it clear. Han, did you hear that?

Yes. Ill be careful.

As Yoo-hyun matched Choi Min-hees tempo, Lee Bon-seok had nothing to say.

It wasnt a situation where he could yell right away, so he just suppressed his anger and endured it.

Hoof.

Lee Bon-seok sighed roughly, and Jang Jun Hong, the team leader, also frowned as things didnt go as planned.

It was annoying and troublesome to resume the interrupted flow.

Lee Bon-seok, who was determined, started to say harsher words than before.

Frankly speaking, what did you mobile guys do? You just made some useless logos or something

His words didnt even end.

Bang.

The door opened and a man with a rough breath appeared.

Manager.

Ignoring Choi Min-hee, the team leader who was surprised, Kim Hyun-min, the manager, walked in slowly.

His expression, which always smiled, looked quite heavy.

Team Leader Lee, what are you doing right now?

As Kim Hyun-min growled lowly, Lee Bon-seok stood up from his seat and shrugged his shoulders.

I was giving some advice to the mobile team because they seemed lacking. Is there a problem?

Manager, look at this. Is this a cafeteria? Its all snacks, snacks.

Jang Jun Hong also chimed in with Lee Bon-seok.

Kim Hyun-min sneered at the two of them.

Do you two think youre managers? What are you teaching other teams?

No, arent you being too harsh? Should we just ignore them?

As Lee Bon-seok didnt back down, Kim Hyun-min took another step closer.

Didnt you ignore them from the start? If you want to help them, help them when they work. Why are you overdoing it in the wrong place?

No, thats

Their tones became rougher.

It was a situation of imminent clash.

When the atmosphere in the conference room froze completely, Yoo-hyun whispered to the people very quietly.

Lets get out of here.

What?

Yoo-hyun said to Kim Young-gil, the manager who asked in surprise.

Dont stay here and get burned. Lets go.

Should we?

Hurry up.

As Yoo-hyun led the way, the people who were watching followed one by one.

Its like when one person crosses when the crosswalk light is red, others follow suit.

Of course there was one exception who followed the rules well.

No. Itll be fine. Dont worry too much.

Manager Kim Hyun-min laughed bitterly at his unfounded confidence.

It was a sarcastic remark that hinted at his displeasure.

Sure. You must be happy, Mr. Han, right?

Yes. Of course. You did a great job.

Kim Hyun-min, the manager, laughed louder as Yoo-hyun gave him a thumbs up.

Hahaha. Thank you for the compliment. In that case, lets wrap up everything today and go for a dinner.

Shall we?

Geez, Im craving for some alcohol after a long time.

Kim Hyun-min, who was mechanically shrugging his shoulders, dropped himself down.

His forced smile revealed traces of worry on his face.

Choi Min-hee, the team leader who knew Kim Hyun-mins mind better than anyone, immediately agreed with him.

Lets do that.

The other team members also chimed in one by one.

Yes. Lets do that. We havent had a dinner for a long time.

Lets go. Lets release the stress that piled up today.

Lets go. Lets forget about the whole meeting today and go all out.

It was like they had returned to their old team atmosphere after a long time.

When everyone was longing for a dinner, Yoo-hyun raised his hand and voiced his opposition.

Im sorry, but Ill skip this time.

What? Why are you skipping? You never skipped a dinner before, Mr. Han.

Not only Kim Hyun-min, but also the others looked curious.

Yoo-hyun had never refused a dinner before, and today seemed like a day when he should please Kim Hyun-mins mood.

But Yoo-hyun was firm.

I have something important to do.

Well, dont feel bad. Youre not missing much.

Okay. Lets have a drink next time.

Yoo-hyun smiled with his eyes and turned his head.

That was when Kwon Se-jung, the deputy manager, looked at him with a suspicious gaze.

Yoo-hyun, dont tell me youre skipping because of some martial arts novel that came out or something like that?

He had a good sense of things.

Yoo-hyun blushed at Kwon Se-jungs remark that hit the nail on the head and shook his head.

No, man. I have a really important thing to do.

Wow. Really?

Dont you believe me?

Even though he emphasized that it wasnt true, Kwon Se-jung didnt seem to buy it.

As Kwon Se-jung guessed, Yoo-hyuns destination was a comic cafe.

But his reason was wrong.

He did get a new martial arts novel, but that was just a bonus, not his real purpose.

Yoo-hyun had someone to meet here.

A little later.

A newly opened comic cafe near the company.

Yoo-hyun took a seat in one of the booths with partitions.

He leaned forward to the ramen that the part-timer brought him on the soft sofa seat for couples.

The steaming egg floating on top looked delicious.

This ramen is really good here. You should try it.

Just a moment. Let me finish this first.

The man sitting next to him pushed away the ramen bowl and scanned the newspaper.

Yoo-hyun put the ramen noodles in his mouth after blowing on them and looked at the three newspapers that he stacked on the table.

His name was neatly aligned in the headlines that popped up.

<Owner management issue triggered by the appearance of Shin Kyung-wook, an unverified executive director. Hansung Groups stock price wobbles.>

<Hansung Groups crown princes succession trick? What is the reason for Shin Kyung-wooks suspicious return to Korea?>

<Shin Kyung-wook of Hansung who showed nothing. Is it fair for him to become a chairman of a large company just because he is the eldest son?>

Shin Kyung-wook, the executive director, looked at the newspaper with a serious expression with his fingers crossed on his chin.

Yoo-hyun waved his hand as he paused while picking up his chopsticks.

Whats so serious? Youll ruin your ramen like that.

I dont like any of these pictures.

Yoo-hyun chuckled at Shin Kyung-wooks ridiculous answer that came out of nowhere.

Do you expect good pictures in negative news? Its fine as long as your eyes, nose, and mouth are normal in the pictures.

No. These are just what they had in their media outlets. Next time, Ill have to distribute some decent pictures.

Shin Kyung-wook nodded to himself and pulled the ramen bowl closer.

He seemed to be enjoying himself completely by now.
