Today is Park Jin Hyuk and Han Ji Yeon's date day.

They were sitting in a high-end Western restaurant, which Jin Junyu had booked for them three months ago.

Park Jin Hyuk used the meal time to listen to Kim Jun Woo's report.

"The US mediation did not achieve the desired effect, which made the market increasingly uneasy, and as a result, oil prices fell from $40 to around $35."

Park Jin Hyuk nodded while eating his salad.

Han Ji-yeon could understand if someone talked about work during a date once or twice, but if it happened every time, she would find it unacceptable.

Today, as soon as Jin Junyu walked in, Han Zhiyan's face looked a little strange.

But Park Jin Hyuk pretended not to see it.

"Mutated influenza viruses continue to circulate. Although countries around the world have adopted the most stringent epidemic prevention measures, they have failed to curb the spread of the virus."

“Are there any new antigen tests available?”

"It's in the final stages of testing."

“What about the vaccine?”

Han Ji-yeon glanced at Park Jin-hyuk, but Park Jin-hyuk continued listening to Kim Jun-woo's report.

"A phase 2 clinical trial has already begun at Seoul Central Hospital, and will later be conducted at five university hospitals across the country."

"In this case, the outside world will know about the vaccine without us having to say anything, right?"

"Yes, it seems there is no need to rush to announce the news."

"Is this also the opinion of Commander Zheng?"

"Yes."

"His life has been much better."

After it was confirmed that the Paris flu had mutated, the evaluation of Minister Zheng began to change, and public opinion praised him for taking countermeasures faster than other countries.

So, he no longer called Park Jin Hyuk every day to complain.

"How is the funding prepared?"

Park Jin Hyuk asked as he cut into the steak.

Jin Junyu glanced at Han Zhiyan uneasily and continued:

"President Guo said that they have already selected one of the two interested foreign banks and are moving forward as planned."

"Tell him I'm only concerned with the big picture, and he can handle the specifics."

Park Jin Hyuk is still very confident in the abilities of his subordinates. If he interferes too much, it will be counterproductive.

"Okay, let's stop here."

Park Jin Hyuk signaled to Kim Jun Woo that he could leave.

Jin Junyu immediately stepped back and turned and walked out.

As soon as Jin Junyu left the restaurant, Han Zhiyan couldn't help but say:

"It's too conspicuous today."

"What's the matter?"

"Leave the surrounding seats empty...what will the other guests think?"

As she spoke, Han Ji-yeon looked around.

It was dinner time and the restaurant was full of guests, but several tables near Park Jin Hyuk and Han Ji Yeon were empty.

"Isn't this just to make things easier for us to talk? Besides, isn't it nice to arrange this occasionally so everyone knows we're dating?"

Han Zhiyan said angrily:

"So, you're still thinking about me?"

"There are all kinds of considerations."

Park Jin Hyuk said.

"This kind of dating style is the first time I've ever seen it."

"I've been so busy lately. Talking about work over dinner can save time."

Park Jin Hyuk arranged three things at the same time: a date with his fiancée, a meal and a talk about work.

"Why don't you ask me if I like this?"

Park Jin Hyuk thought for a moment and said half-jokingly:

"You know I love working, and I think love life, like work, is open to negotiation. Tell me, what are your demands and dissatisfactions?"

Upon hearing this, Han Ji-yeon immediately became angry.

"I don't like negotiating with you here."

"Don't like it? Have you forgotten? What was our agreement?"

Park Jin Hyuk continued to tease.

"you……"

Seeing that Han Ji-yeon was really angry, Park Jin-hyuk quickly apologized:

"Are you angry? Then I apologize."

"Hmph, so hypocritical."

"It's only half true and half false. We're not boys or girls anymore. We've long passed that age."

"Sometimes, I feel like you're too inhuman and emotionless."

"Emotions? I've had them before, but if I were too emotional, would I still be able to sit in this position now?"

"We are going to become husband and wife..."

"Husband and wife cannot be without affection, but being too affectionate and sweet is very tiring. Expecting too much will eventually lead to disappointment. How can there be a good outcome?"

Park Jin Hyuk's words made Han Ji Yeon laugh.

"Are you trying to convince me to accept your way of getting along?"

"Only relationships that don't tire each other out can last. Don't you agree with this?"

"...You hope our relationship will last forever, right?"

"Yes, if you expect too much, it's not a good thing. It's better to be like us and last longer."

Knowing that she couldn't win the argument with Park Jin Hyuk, Han Ji Yeon kept silent.

After a while, she seemed to remember something.

"Director Wu has been contacting me frequently recently. She seems to really want to get along with me. Has your relationship improved?"

"...You could say that, but her will is stronger."

"Why?"

Han Ji-yeon asked in confusion.

Han Ji-yeon asked such in-depth questions because she actually wanted to find a solution to her problem.

Park Jin Hyuk looked at Han Ji Yeon.

"When your opponent is at a disadvantage, you can reach out and pull her up first, so that she will let down her guard, and then you can strike her from behind with a fatal blow. If you fight her head-on, you will also get hurt."
