[If you don’t want me to do that, do it well with Team Leader Seo. Don’t throw envelopes in front of me, and don’t throw tantrums.] [Felt bad? I told you to see it.]

Chairman Chaji Seop’s voice was bitter, as if trying to teach the use of Seo Ye-eun.

But Doha continued without blinking an eye.

[Thick envelopes, quietly when handing them over. Please observe manners, Chairman.]

The voice was firm, and the expression was serious.

[Then, receive the lessons properly.] [Are you seriously attracted to Team Leader Seo?] [Why are you like this, Chairman?]

In response to Chairman Chaji Seop’s words, Doha let out a cool laugh.

Then, without any embarrassment, he continued his words.

[If your body itches, your heart also has to go to some extent. It’s an amusing toy you gave me, so if that doesn’t work either, I’ll throw it away.] No, he rather threatened Chairman Chaji Seop.

“At least my toys should be placed in a clean place. Including the chairman, without the touch of others, intact.”

Even Inwoo’s spine seemed to straighten at the last words.

“So, if you want to get what you want, do well. Don’t touch Seo Ye-eun recklessly.”

Inwoo doesn’t exactly know what Seo Ye-eun means to Doha.

But one thing was clear.

Seo Ye-eun was moving Doha’s heart, even if it was ever so slightly.

Perhaps that’s why Inwoo’s heart, too, was unexpectedly stirred.

Six years ago, after the accident involving Cha Kang, there was nothing interesting in the world. But somehow, there was a premonition that something interesting was going to happen.

Inwoo, who swallowed his laughter silently, looked at the 12th floor where the strategic planning headquarters was located, then pressed the button for the 1st floor and left the Hanju Group headquarters building.

The place where Chadoha came to have lunch was a Japanese restaurant where she had been before.

That day, Chadoha had personally chosen each menu item to feed her dinner, but today she felt somehow opposite.

With the employee who came to take the order standing nearby, Chadoha, who was flipping through the menu, said as if throwing it.

“I saw that you don’t eat shrimp that day?”

She seemed indifferent, but when was that seen?

Eun, who lightly smiled, answered briefly.

“I… I’m not good at eating shrimp.”

Then Chadoha, who was reading the menu, raised his gaze.

“What about crab?”

When their eyes met as the black gaze approached, tension naturally spread through her body.

With hands placed firmly on her knees, Eun, who had raised her hands above her knees, answered calmly.

“I eat crab.”

“How about sushi?”

“I haven’t tried that yet…”

He casually averted his gaze again, and she touched the menu with her index finger.

“I’ll have it like this. For the lady, let’s exclude sweet shrimp and go with beef.”

At his words, the attentive employee received the menu and wrote it down sincerely.

Chadoha’s gaze turned back to Eun.

“Since the weather has gotten a little chilly, how about udon instead of cold soba?”

“Yes.”

As she nodded slightly, Chadoha, who subtly raised the corners of his mouth, handed the menu to the employee.

“Then, like that.”

Taking the menu, the employee alternately looked at Chadoha and her face with a sincere smile, then bowed and left the room.

The sliding door closed silently, and there was a moment of silence.

Chadoha, who lifted the teapot, filled her cup, and when Eun stood up straight, she reached out.

“I…”

“I’ll do it.”

Lowering her gaze, Chadoha, with difficulty, filled the tea cup and put down the teapot.

“Tell me how I can show a different side.”

It was an extension of work, but even so, her heart was busy playing a small drumbeat.

That day, she was captivated by looking at Chadoha in this place, and now it was the same.

No, now the enthusiasm was even thicker than it was then.

Eun, whose lips were slightly dry, cautiously opened her mouth.

The visually revealed image of Chadoha.
And the color unique to Chadoha, tinted by that image.

Perfectly visible, but how people around feel about the imbalance created by that perfection.

What should be done first for that?

Eun continued the story, which could be boring at times.

As sushi course dishes were served one by one, she quietly listened to her story until the final dessert came out.

“Because your style is already so good, you don’t need to change the style itself. However, depending on the occasion, you should change the color of your tie, suit, or design to soften the stiffness. Changing something like the button on your suit or cufflinks is also good.”

“Is my style too stiff now?”

“No, it’s not like that.”

It wasn’t like that.

Chadoha’s style is almost perfect even now.

But because her image is so haughty and arrogant, there was a need to make the colors a bit lighter.

“When you want to look particularly soft… Change like that.”

“Tomorrow is the day of the meeting with the inspiration from Jeon Gyeong-ryeon. What should I wear there?”

“Navy.”

She answered without hesitation.

Inspiration from Jeon Gyeong-ryeon, maybe the virtue that young Chadoha would show to them is trust.

“A color that gives trust. Navy with a white shirt, a tie in a similar color, a small pattern? Stripes would be fine too.”

Looking at Eun, who answered quickly, Chadoha smirked.

Then he said a word as if coaxing.

“Passionate.”

He spat out the words teasingly, and Chadoha, who licked her lips, lifted the teacup and finished the remaining tea.

“With that passion, Seo Ye-eun, you can choose it yourself.”

“Me?”

“Why? Don’t you like going into my room?”

As Chadoha, putting down the teacup, looked at her with a slow but peculiar light on her face.

It was so seductive that Eun, who was staring at Chadoha as if bewitched, lifted her head.

“No. I’ll choose for you.”

“Then come tonight.”

With a slightly tilted head, he raised one corner of his mouth and placed a card key on the table.

“If you bring cheap bagged coffee, it’ll be even better.”
