When the two people who had spent time in Hawaii after delaying their return for one more day returned to Korea, there was an uproar. Seeing the black crowd of reporters, Inseop thought that no matter what happened, something was definitely wrong. Thanks to CEO Kim, who met the two of them at the airport, the two managed to outrun the reporters and get into the car. CEO Kim, who was angry, yelled at Lee Wooyeon if he was a sane person. Lee Wooyeon smiled and asked, âWhy?â
âWhat, why? why?! Why are you saying that now!?!â
Manager Cha told CEO Kim to calm down.
âDo I look like I can calm down now? This, this, this crazyâŚÂ âŚÂ , he did that in Hawaii!â
âWhat did I do?â
CEO Kim threw the sports newspaper at him. There was a picture of a man who appeared to be Lee Wooyeon, standing in the street with his white shirt stained with blood. In bold letters, it was written, âLee Wooyeonâs rampage and drug use rumors raised.â
âWow. Itâs a Sam In Seongho. Inseop, do you know what âSam Inseonghoâ means?â
ââŚÂ âŚÂ It means that three people make a tigerâŚÂ âŚÂ Isnât that an old saying?â
After realizing that Inseop was particularly weak at old-fashioned words, Lee Wooyeon often asked him questions like this.
âThatâs right. Itâs just an adjective used at times like this. What should I do?â
âIâm starting to doubt youâre on drugs. Did you walk around town like this? Besides, it says you hit a staff member from the magazine.â
CEO Kim seemed to have decided to stop being careful with his words in front of Choi Inseop.
âI did? Could I do it?â
Lee Wooyeon waved his hand like it was nonsense.
âIf I hit someone, do you think it would appear in the sports newspaper gossip? Itâll be on the 9 oâclock news.â
ââŚÂ âŚÂ .â
ââŚÂ âŚÂ . âŚÂ âŚÂ .â
ââŚÂ âŚÂ . âŚÂ âŚÂ . âŚÂ âŚÂ .â
âWhy is no one laughing? Itâs a joke.â
It was a joke that the three people who knew Lee Wooyeonâs true identity could never laugh. Lee Wooyeonâs slender eyes began to read the newspaper.
âDid you beat up the staff? No right?â
âI didnât. I didnât have time to do it. I just pushed him. A bit.â
âWhat will you do if he sues you?â
âBlock it with money. CEO, what are you going to do with your money? Iâm sure some money came in because your stock exchange went well.â
CEO Kim was on the verge of foaming. Manager Cha, who was driving, opened his mouth to help with a word before CEO Kim died like this.
âEven so, there are so many people who saw you, right? What were you thinking?â
âI know, right.â
Lee Wooyeon smiled and nodded. In fact, the memories of that time were sparse. He was so angry that he couldnât even remember what he was doing. His only thought was only that Choi Inseop had left him and disappeared and he had to find him.
âWhat is goingâŚâŚon?â
Inseop, who had not heard of the details that day, pointed to a picture of Lee Wooyeon in the newspaper and asked.
âItâs nothing. You have nothing to worry about.â
âItâs not nothing! Hey, two CFs already canceled on you.â
âOnly cut two? I guess itâs true that people should accumulate virtues on a daily basis. Thatâs fortunate.â
CEO Kim took a deep breath and grabbed the back of his neck. Manager Cha asked him if he had taken his Blood Pressure medication.
âWhat the hell are you doing? Are you going to quit being a celebrity?â
âNo.â
âThen why? Why are you going crazy in a crowded place?!â
âI had a reason to go crazy.â
âSo, what is the reason, please convince me once more. Tell the reporters the same thing.â
CEO Kim said while leaning back. Lee Wooyeon smiled and looked at Inseop. Inseop, who had a rough idea of what was going on, quickly avoided his gaze.
âI had to find something.â
âWhat are you looking for? Diamond? Gold? Woman?!â
âI can get any of those three if I like.â
ââŚÂ âŚÂ Yea. I know you will, but what the hell did you go crazy looking for?â
âSomething not to be missed.â
âWhat is that!!!!â
âYes, there is.â
Inseopâs face warmed up.
âHey! Oh, really. I grow old because of you, Iâm getting old. âŚÂ âŚÂ manager Cha. Make an appointment for an esthetic today. I just turned six years older because of that bastard.â
âAll right.â
The manager nodded his head and replied. Lee Wooyeon, who looked at the two of them from behind, said.
âThe two of you look like a married couple.â
âWhat? Donât say something so terrible. How can we look like a couple?â
âManager Cha is a wise mother, and CEO Kim is an immature father.â
âStop it! I think Iâm going to vomit!â
CEO Kim screamed, and manager Cha looked at Lee Wooyeon from the rearview mirror.
âThen am I your son?â
When Lee Wooyeon asked shamelessly, CEO Kim shouted with a straight face.
âDo you think manager Cha would have eaten seaweed soup after having a son like you?â
ââŚÂ âŚÂ CEO. You can drive like this and sink under the Incheon Bridge.â
Lee Wooyeon, who was smiling lightly, suddenly thought of what to call CEO Kim.
Dad.
âWhat? What did you say now?â
âI just tried calling you once.â
âI have never had a son like you. Donât even say anything terrible.â
âHa ha ha ha ha.â
Lee Wooyeon smiled and leaned back on the seat. Inseop was just watching him quietly from the side.
âWhat did you do?â
CEO Kimâs nagging went to Inseop this time.
âIâm sorry.â
âYouâre sorry, okay? You should be reprimanded too. If Lee Wooyeon went wild, you should have stopped it by any means possible. Iâll let it go for now until this mess goes down.â
Lee Wooyeon, who had been smilin,, called out to him, âCEO.â
âWhatâ
âMr. Inseop was not there.â
âThatâs why Iâm scolding him!â
âIâm tired because I just got off the plane. Iâll talk to you later.â
âWhen is later. I have to finish talking after Kim has spoken. Inseop, if you want to work with him in the futureâŚÂ âŚÂ .â
âCEO Kim.â
Recognizing that Lee Wooyeonâs voice calling to him was unusual, CEO Kim turned around in surprise.
âItâs me whoâs wrong, so just scold me. Inseop, just leave him alone.â
âNo. Because I was away, âŚÂ âŚÂ sorry.â
âSince Inseop has nothing to be sorry about, stay still. The president knows that too.â
His tone was serious, but his voice was sharp and cold. CEO Kim, who knew that Lee Wooyeon was not the type of person who cared about anyone, looked at him with a face saying, âWhat is it?â He didnât think he was jokingâŚÂ âŚÂ .
âŚÂ âŚÂ no way.
CEO Kim looked at Choi Inseop and Lee Wooyeon with eyes full of astonishment. Inseop was looking out the window, and Lee Wooyeon was reading a newspaper with rumors of him taking drugs with a relaxed face as usual.
All of a sudden, he called him fatherâŚÂ âŚÂ , that canât be. That guy loved women too much.
CEO Kim got rid of the useless thoughts that ran through his head and turned his body forward. How far did he run? When Lee Wooyeon told Inseop to sleep while leaning on him, CEO Kim was startled and looked back again.
âWhat?â
Lee Wooyeon asked. His face was so gentle and peaceful, he couldnât help but utter the thoughts that ran through his head.
ââŚÂ âŚÂ It is nothing.â
First of all, these were people who have come back from a long way, so he thought of leaving it as it is for now. For the time being, there wonât be any problems. Working hard to make up his mind, CEO Kim straightened his body.
However, his anxious heart fluctuated inside him like he had motion sickness.
