However, after the show was broadcast, what Jin Junyu worried about still happened.
DS Pharmaceuticals' stock price immediately showed a downward trend.
Kim Jun-woo hurriedly reported the situation to Park Jin-hyuk.
“How much did it fall?”
"It was down 7% in one day, and it was down 5% right after the show aired."
"7%? That's not serious."
As he spoke, Park Jin Hyuk walked to the clothes rack, took off his coat, and prepared to leave work.
Jin Junyu helped him put on his coat and said:
"And rumors are spreading that there's some kind of backroom dealing going on between you, DS Pharmaceuticals, and North."
"Yeah, I expected that."
"Did you expect that?"
"Didn't I say that? I just want everyone to talk about this topic openly."
Park Jin Hyuk put on his coat, walked to the window, and looked at the sunset rising in the sky.
"By transferring North's stock, I gained more than 10 times the profit. Instead of covering up this matter, it's better to speak out. Sooner or later, the truth will be known to the public. People are just jealous now, but it will slowly pass over with time."
Seeing Park Jin Hyuk standing in front of the window, seemingly with no intention of leaving, Jin Junyu asked:
"Are you planning to stay a while?"
"I'm waiting for a call."
"Waiting for a call?"
"I have another purpose for spreading the news of my earning. You'll find out in a moment."
As soon as Park Jin Hyuk finished speaking, there was a knock on the door.
A female secretary pushed the door open and walked in.
"Director Park, Chairman Lee Jong-moo from Seongbuk-dong called and asked if you could come over tonight."
"How's it going? The phone's ringing."
Park Jin Hyuk said to the female secretary:
"Please reply and I'll be right there."
"Secretary Jin, let's go."
Only then did Jin Junyu understand what Park Jin Hyuk's main purpose was in spreading the news.
*** *** ***
Soon, the car arrived in front of Chairman Lee Jong-moo's residence in Seongbuk-dong.
Park Jin Hyuk looked up at the mansion shrouded in the night, opened the door and got out of the car.
Jin Junyu walked up and rang the doorbell, and soon the housekeeper opened the door.
"Master, you're here! The president is waiting for you."
Park Jin Hyuk walked through the gate, crossed the spacious courtyard, and went up the stairs.
The housekeeper opened the door of the house for him.
Grandma came out to greet me.
"Jin Hyuk, you're here!"
"Grandma, are you feeling well? I've been busy lately and haven't been able to visit you often."
"It doesn't matter. You have a lot to do. You're not like some people who just sit around and do nothing all day."
As she said this, she looked back.
Behind her stood Park Jin Hyuk's cousin and Lee Sun Myeong's son Kim Hyun Wook.
He walked up, greeted Park Jin Hyuk, and then turned back to his room.
"Is Auntie not back yet?"
"She's very busy right now, let's go in first."
As she spoke, grandma pulled Park Jin Hyuk to the restaurant and sat down at the dining table.
"I heard that you've been visiting the main family in Heichangdong quite often recently?"
"Yes, about twice a week."
"You should go there more often. It's your home. I heard that even when you go back to your own home, you still have to look at those people's eyes. When I think about it, I get so angry..."
At this time, Li Zhongwu walked out from inside.
"Zhenhe finally came here, and you always bring up those unhappy things. Why?"
"Stop talking now, your grandson is here, why did you just come out?"
"Why? As a grandfather, I have to go to the door to greet him, right?"
"Didn't you ask him to come?"
Grandma's voice suddenly rose eight octaves, and Grandpa Li Zhongwu fell silent.
"Grandpa, I'm sorry I came here without saying hello to you first..."
"It doesn't matter."
After saying that, Li Zhongwu picked up his chopsticks and started eating.
During the meal, Lee Jong-woo tried to say something to Park Jin-hyuk several times, but was interrupted by his grandmother every time.
"Zhenhe, try this. Don't just eat the cold dishes, you have to eat the meat too."
Li Zhongwu finally couldn't stand it anymore and slammed his rice spoon onto the table.
"Why do you always interrupt me when I'm trying to speak?"
"The child has finally come here, can't you let him finish his meal first?"
"You don't know what happened..."
"How could I not know? Do you think I don't know anything just because I'm at home? You and Shanming have been so upset lately, don't you think I don't know?"
Li Zhongwu stood up helplessly.
"No more eating, Zhenhe, when you're done, come to my study."
"Yes, I understand."
After Li Zhongwu walked away, grandma sighed and said:
"Actually, I know everything. Your grandfather's company is in a very bad situation right now."
In the past, grandma never mentioned company matters in front of Park Jin Hyuk, which shows how serious the situation is this time.
Park Jin Hyuk comforted his grandmother:
"Don't worry, there will be a way."
Grandma seemed to understand the meaning of Park Jin Hyuk's words.
"Thank you in advance."
Then, grandma stopped talking about the company and asked about Park Jin Hyuk's recent situation.
Soon, Park Jin Hyuk finished his dinner.
Then, he stood up and walked towards his grandfather's study.
