Chapter 1188 Symbolic Salary Increase



Guangyou is very satisfied with the current state of the lavender.

He didn't seem to have any intention of expanding or strengthening the lavender business.

That's too tiring; it's better to invest in a few projects that are sure to become hits.

Making money while lying down sounds so appealing!

Without thinking about it anymore, Kōyū went through the back door and went to find Numabuchi Kiichirō first.

After entrusting the bank card matter to Kiichiro Numabuchi, he went to the bar to find Narumi.

"Your orange juice."

After placing a glass of orange juice in front of Kwangyu, Narumi said to him:

"Minors are prohibited from drinking alcohol."

"I never intended to drink in the first place." Guangyou smiled and took a sip from his glass.

"How are you feeling?" Chengshi asked Guangyou, looking at the customers in the bar.

"Orange juice?"

After taking another sip, Guangyou replied:

"It tastes very good."

The fruit juices in the bar are almost all freshly squeezed.

It tastes great, and its nutritional value is much higher than that of commercially available fruit juices.

It's good for your health too.

However, that's not what Cheng Shi asked.

She turned her gaze back to Guangyou and asked:

"Thank you for the compliment, but I wanted to ask you, how are you feeling about the bar now?"

"Your boss doesn't come here very often anyway."

"They don't even ask much."

Sensing the dissatisfaction in his tone, Kwang-woo shrugged helplessly and said:

“Sung-sil unnie, I’m a student now, and I still have to go to school.”

"And I feel that having you here is enough."

"There's nothing I can do to help here."

"It would be better to delegate authority to you."

"If I were in charge, this bar would probably have closed down long ago."

He was obviously belittling himself by saying that, but he was exaggerating.

Cheng Shi understood this implication, but she just pursed her lips and wasn't buying it at all.

She sat at the bar and said:

"The idea for the renovation was still yours."

"Still closed?"

"If I could close the door, I..."

Looking around, Narumi picked up a wine glass and continued:

"If I could close the door, I'd eat this cup right now."

The strong sense of déjà vu reminded Guangyou of a certain person.

He snapped out of his reverie, took a sip of orange juice, and said with a smile:

"But Sister Chengshi, you are indeed better than me in this aspect, so I'm not exactly lying."

"Then you have to give me a raise," Cheng Shi said, feigning dissatisfaction.

“Okay, okay, whatever you want the price to go up.” Guangyou agreed without hesitation.

This bar itself is half of the reality.

It's just that Narumi doesn't really want it.

Now that she wants a raise, let her raise it however much she wants.

However, Narumi was just joking when she said that.

She is extremely satisfied with her current life.

But since Guangyou has agreed to give her a raise, she won't refuse.

Um...

She thought about it and decided to raise the price by 500 yen.

The price of a cup of milk tea.

After making the decision, Narumi asked:

"So, is there something you need from the big boss today?"

"They even came in through the back door."

Upon hearing this, Guangyou countered with a question:

"Can't I have come here specifically to see Sung-sil?"

Cheng Shi didn't believe it at all. She pouted and said:

"You should say that to your girlfriend."

"Just say it, what's the matter?"

Having said all that, Guangyou stopped hiding it.

He said:

"It's just a small thing."

"I've already entrusted it to Numabuchi."

"To put it simply, my husband's parents once lent their house to someone to open a law firm."

"That guy hasn't been behaving well lately. He messed up with someone and now he's in the morgue."

"I'm thinking of getting back the rent from this house over the past few decades."

"So I'll have Numabuchi Kiichiro handle these matters."

After listening to Guangyou's explanation, Chengshi nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

Afterwards, Guangyou talked to her about the bar and the planned cat cafe.

After discussing the above, the two also talked about some things in their lives.

We chatted for almost half an hour and had three more glasses of juice.

Seeing that it was almost time, Kwangyu said goodbye to Narumi and left the bar.

...

He took the subway back to his home where he had been staying for the past few days.

At that moment, Shiho Miyano had just finished her research for the day.

Pushing open the door and entering the room, Guangyou placed the snacks he had bought on the way on the table and asked:

"How's it going? Any progress in today's research?"

“Yes, but only a little,” Shiho Miyano replied.

She also really wanted to develop an antidote as soon as possible.

Unfortunately, the problems that plagued her were far beyond what people could comprehend today.

With current technology, solving this problem remains very difficult.

Moreover, when she was developing "APTX4869", she also had research materials left by her parents.

But now, she not only has no reference materials, but she doesn't even have APTX4869.

She now conducts experiments, and sometimes she has to rely on the components in her blood for research.

The effect is definitely not as good as using medication directly.

Developing a cure is difficult to begin with, and with these problems added on, any progress can be considered quite smooth.

Although Kōyū is not good at this, he knows it is very difficult.

Hearing that there had been some progress, he smiled and said while helping Shiho Miyano tidy up the table:

"A little bit is good enough; it's better than nothing."

"After you're done cleaning up, go eat that."
