Park Jin Hyuk replied:

"If I'm not Park Jin Hyuk, who else could it be?"

"I just ordered your favorite Penfolds Grange red wine, but you said you didn't like it? It seems you are not satisfied with me."

"How should I put it... I should say I don't like this kind of occasion."

Park Jin Hyuk smiled awkwardly, picked up the wine glass and took a sip.

Then he buried his head in eating again.

After a while, Park Jin Hyuk put his knife and fork on the table.

"Well, you don't seem to have any interest in me either. Since we don't have any feelings for each other, let's just go home after dinner. Um... just tell everyone else that you're not interested in me. Is that okay?"

The woman didn't talk much, so Park Jin Hyuk naturally thought that she had no interest in him.

'I don't mind at all.'

Thinking of this, Park Jin Hyuk smiled at the woman and said to himself:

"Please understand. If we leave now, it will be difficult for you and me to explain when we return. So let's delay for a while and then leave. That way it will be easier to explain when we return."

Park Jin Hyuk didn't look at the woman, but opened the document next to him.

He planned to finish reading the unfinished materials while eating.

"I heard that your brother is engaged to the daughter of the Daming family. Aren't you paying attention to this?"

Unexpectedly, the woman spoke, and Park Jin Hyuk raised his head.

The woman still had an expressionless look on her face.

The food on the plate in front of her was untouched, and it seemed that she had no desire to eat.

Park Jin Hyuk looked into her eyes, and could not see any joy, anger, sorrow or happiness in her eyes.

This is a very difficult woman to deal with.

"Why do you say I'm not paying attention? I'm very concerned about it, and it's giving me a headache. That's why I was reading the documents while eating. Didn't you see it too?"

"If you care about me, then why are you so indecisive when you're with me?"

"You mean you can provide a solution, right?"

"Don't you think so?"

Park Jin Hyuk picked up the documents on the table and said:

"Of course I know you can provide a solution, but there's more than one solution. I plan to find other solutions from this information."

“Why do you choose the difficult path when there is an easy one right before you?”

"Who says that path is necessarily easy? It's just that most people think it's easy. But the path I chose might be easier, and... I'm not interested in the solution you can provide..."

"Is it because of what I did to you before that you are acting like this?"

"What have you done before?"

Park Jin Hyuk was shocked, it seemed that she had indeed seen him.

But Park Jin Hyuk still shook his head.

"I don't understand what you're talking about."

The woman looked at Park Jin Hyuk with a mixture of laughter and tears.

"Okay, let's not talk about the past."

"I really can't remember. If I did something wrong, I apologize."

After hearing this, the woman felt that Park Jin Hyuk did not seem to be lying, but how could he not remember it?

"Okay, even if you don't remember, I agree with what you just said. Let's sit here a little longer and leave when the time comes. Tell everyone that I don't want to see you again."

"I agree, thank you very much."

As he spoke, Park Jin Hyuk opened the file and started reading while eating.

I don’t know how much time passed like this before the dessert was served.

Hearing the woman stand up, Park Jin Hyuk raised his head.

The two of them looked at each other, the woman nodded as a greeting, then turned and left.

Park Jin Hyuk looked at her back and thought:

"Could it be that she is the only child of the Qingyu family? Why is the number so large?"

The woman left a very deep impression on Park Jin Hyuk.

But right now, he has more urgent things to do.

*** *** ***

At the end of the year, Park Jin Hyuk was doing the final finishing work at DS Construction. The following year, he would take up his post at DS Pharmaceuticals.

Ding, ding, ding.

Secretary Jin pushed the door open and walked in, reporting:

"Manager Park, the new year's executive personnel arrangements have been announced."

"Don't we all know the content?"

"Yes, but the media wants to come for an interview."

"Interview who? Me?"

"Yes, the media have been asking to interview you or asking about the company's official position."

"They see that I'm leaving construction and there's nothing left to hype. Are they disappointed?"

Secretary Jin hesitated to speak, and seeing him hesitant, Park Jin Hyuk asked:

"What's the matter?"

"After the New Year's personnel arrangements were announced, even before we released the news, external reports began to flood the news."

As he spoke, Kim Jun-woo handed the tablet computer in his hand to Park Jin-hyuk.

[Unusual developments in the dispute over inheritance rights between DS and Dongjing Industry]

[The heir to the DS Group has become a key factor influencing the succession pattern of the Dongjing Industry]

[Did DS really reach a major deal with Dongjing Industry?]

After reading the title, Park Jin Hyuk returned the tablet to Secretary Kim.

"I thought these rumors and gossip would disappear once I left DS Construction, but it seems that's not the case. However, this isn't surprising. Isn't that what the media always does? They just want to create chaos."

A few months ago, the stock exchange sent a confirmation letter to DS Construction regarding the merger of DS Construction and Dongjing Industry.
