The remaining few days of the week went as usual. With the help of the information given by the Wang family when she used to visit them, Su Yeon was able to create few highlight points and strong points of their business model. Even if it was just a project, a hypothetical model, Su Yeon was overexcited for it.
The presentation will be next week so she was able to prepare thoroughly. She sent those extra key points to her group so that the other two will have a basic knowledge of what and how she is going to present and if, by chance they were asked about it, they could give correct answers.
On Sunday night, Su Yeon was practicing her presentation. She 'asked' her parents to sit on the bed as the audience as well as critics and also made a video call to her other two members. During the whole presentation, they both looked at her in awe and then asked some questions.
Yan Su was a bit nervous because she was not quite comfortable with business and presentation. She was in this stream because of her parents. Although she has experience performing in front of the audience, in the case of using words to present, she starts stuttering. So she took the responsibility of making the presentation with the help of Min Seong and they both helped Su Yeon to remember the details of small matters.
After dinner, when she was going through her presentation for the last time, suddenly her mobile buzzed.
Ding!
It was a message from Jin.
Jin: Best of Luck for tomorrow! I know it will definitely be a piece of cake for you, but still.
Su Yeon: Thanks but how do you know about my presentation??
Jin: When you were busy reading books regarding your model in the library. You yourself told me! since you were so busy I didn't disturb you and went home ;)
Su Yeon: What! You were there when I was reading? I was not that busy, it's just because of my habit.
Jin: I know, I know! How this lowly life dares to disturb Your Majesty!
Su Yeon: Hahaha... But seriously, don't do this again. A few minutes of convo will not be a disturbance.
Jin: Yes Your Majesty!
Su Yeon: Bye then, Good night :)
Jin: Ok bye, Good night.
Su Yeon: What Happened? Do you want to share something?
Jin: Why do you think like that?
Su Yeon: Idk, just felt that.
Jin: Umm... Actually, can I call you? No no, you should sleep now, instead, can I come to pick you up from university? Just wait there for me.
Su Yeon: Ok no issues! Bye
Jin: Thank you so much! Good night.
Su Yeon felt that something is amiss. Even if they were chatting, he was not as his usual self. Their conversation has decreased greatly from almost a year back. Anyways he will tell her tomorrow so she tidied her desk and then slept.
...
On the other hand, Jin was staring at his mobile, smiling himself, and thought, "Only you can tell whether I am having a good time or not. Why it is always you! And why the hell I am not your only one!" Jin thought about it and went to sleep after staring at Su Yeon's profile picture.
Kim Jin was Su Yeon's close friend and schoolmate. Su Yeon has only one group of close friends and that is her School group. All members of her group were of the same class in school and even went to the same private academy, that's why they became so close.
Kim Jin was a handsome, rich but shy guy. He was the dream guy of every girl in school. A perfect boyfriend material! He couldn't talk to the female members of the group, especially Su Yeon. He used to muster up the courage to start a conversation with her but always chickened out. He started talking with her when they were in college. From then onwards they became more close.
Every member in the group knew that Jin had a huge crush on Su Yeon from middle school. He confessed it to Su Yeon but she rejected him immediately because she never believed in love. They both were immature so there were many disputes between them.
Unexpectedly they grew more close and there developed a kind of understanding between them. She had a solution to his every problem and he supported her in her difficult and depressing phase.
After that, he once again confessed to her two years ago but that time he showed her how he is rich, going to continue his father's company and will keep her happy. But Su Yeon again rejected him because of her career. She didn't want any distractions in her path. She even suggested to move on from her, because she herself was not sure about this. As usual, he accepted her decision and continued their friendship.
...
At the other part of Imperial City,
A man, in his forties, was sitting in his cabin which was on the topmost floor of a skyscraper. He called someone, "Have you canceled my meetings for tomorrow morning... Yes, I will be visiting Imperial Business University... Ahh, wait! you should also join me. I am not sure but I think it will be a surprise for both of us, especially for you..."
After telling some other work-related things to that person, he hung up the call and looked at the file which was lying on the table. He opened it and looked at the photo of a girl with a gentle gaze, "Are you really my little dumpling? You exactly look like her, small and delicate like a flower. Please, I should be correct at least this time."
The next morning Su Yeon woke up early intentionally. She turned off her alarm and did some stretching exercises. There was a message from Jin. It was sent today at 1:30 am saying, 'Sorry, something came up. I won't be coming to pick you. Once again All the best!'. She replied with 'Ok', took bath, and started getting ready. She decided to wear formal clothes today and keep a nice and decent look. She wore a simple off-white shirt, paired with black skinny trousers and a blazer. She left her waist-length dark brown hair open with a side partition. Since this hairstyle wasn't matching her look, she clipped her long bangs from both sides at back to have a decent and formal look. She chose simple stud pearl earrings and applied very light makeup. She took her laptop, kept it in her bag, and came out to have breakfast. In the dining area, her mother was keeping the dishes on the table and her father was reading the newspaper. "Morningggg!!" she
After the break, it was their turn to present. Su Yeon had a mini sandwich and juice for lunch, as it will give sufficient energy and will not make her dizzy. While everyone was coming into the auditorium, she was practicing backstage. Yan Su was scared to her wits even if she wasn't the one who will be presenting. Min Seong was equally nervous and reciting the details and numbers. Moreover, they both were more nervous because Su Yeon, who is going to present, wasn't showing any kind of anxiety. She was calm as water. For outsiders, this was the impression of Su Yeon but in reality, Su Yeon was nervous too! Presenting in front of the class and presenting in front of everyone on the stage is different. She closed her eyes and started taking few deep breaths. When the professor called out her name, she came out taking elegant, calm, and confident steps. While standing at the center of the stage, her heart almost came out in her throat. It was thumping c
The three of them waited to see the remaining presentations. Yan Su was at the top of the cloud because of what she did earlier and how she was appreciated for it. Looking at Su Yeon, Min Seong said, "So, this is why you wanted to delete those slides," Su Yeon nodded and they both looked at happy Yan Su. Yesterday Su Yeon told Min Seong to delete those slides of their marketing plan of Imperial City and today in the morning, she asked Yan Su to answer it in the critics round. That is why when they were asked, Su Yeon waited for Yan Su to answer. When everything was over, Yan Su offered a meal to both of them, "I am famished, let's eat something. You don't have any plans, right?" Min Seong replied, "In! But I don't think Su Yeon will come, she is going on a date." Yan Su exclaimed, "With Kim Jin? Aww so cute, Su Yeon ah you should accept him. He is perfect boyfriend material and he loves you a lot." Su Yeon said, "Wait, wait, wait! It's not like that,
In the car, There was a deep silence. No one knew how to start a conversation. Kim Jin was stealing glances at Su Yeon. He always liked whenever she sits beside him. Just her presence was enough for him to lift up his mood. To remove the awkwardness, Su Yeon started the conversation, "It may be real or maybe I am paranoid but, you look a bit sad. What happened? Is everything ok?" Thump! His heart started beating loudly. Just a glance and she can see through him. He was indeed sad because of what happened today with him and he was hiding something from her. He stopped the car at the signal and looked at her. She was looking way more gorgeous and in addition to it, she knew what is happening with him. He was feeling sad and lonely so he desperately wanted to hug her tight at this moment. He smiled at her and said, "Hmm, it's true that I am feeling down but no worries since you are here with me right now! I can always get free therapy fro
While returning to the car, Su Yeon suddenly wanted to use the washroom. She asked Kim Jin to wait for her as she wanted to use the washroom. They both entered the café, Su Yeon went to the washroom and Kim Jin sat on the empty table, waiting for her. When she came out, she saw a tall figure at the entrance. She was surprised! "Isn't he..." she thought but suddenly that person held his head and sat at the nearest table. She panicked and quickly went near him. "Mr. Secretary, are you alright? What happened?" Su Yeon asked that person. "Do you know him?" Kim Jin asked. "Yes, he is the secretary of our Professor," she told him but her eyes never left the person in front of her. She offered him water but he rejected. He looked at her and said, "Thank you for your concern Miss, I am alright." Even if his face was aloof, his eyes were saying different. Those eyes were happy as well as lost. He bowed to her and left. Kim Jin and Su Yeon both were equally sta
In the other private room of Sky Lounge, two men were drinking. One had average height and physique, but had short hair. He had a casual aura and was enjoying the drinks. The other one was the polar opposite of him. He had a tall and well-built body, well-maintained hair and a cold aura. He was looking sexier as he was fully focused on doing something on his laptop. His fingers were almost flying on the keyboard. After a minute, he smirked. "Done already?" the short-haired person asked. The other one adjusted his specs and wore earphones. He asked, "Want to listen?" "Whom did you hack just now? Don't tell me it's that person!" the short-haired asked. When the other person nodded his head, he took one side and fixed it in his ear, "Let's see why that person is disturbing our handsome demon!" They started to listen when Gon entered the private room. The short-haired person was listening casually while enjoying drinks but the other one closed his
Prof. Song who was silent till now suddenly clenched his glass and shouted, "Of course!" he paused and calmed himself. He fumed, "Tell your men to follow him without letting him know about it. That devil is way more smart, just like he used to be. No no, instead… Gon, you should follow him. Remember not to let him meet my little dumpling, NEVER! I won't do that mistake again. I realized later that he was also there in the café that day... very close to her. If you want your Miss to be happy this time, you should not let them meet at any cost." Gon was confused. Why does Master is getting so angry? Who is he? He asked, "Master, who is that person? Did he do something to our Miss that time?" Prof. Song told him, "That person is the Tyrant I was talking about! Same face, same personality, same attitude! Nothing has changed about him. He didn't do anything as of now..." Fear started building inside his heart. His angry tone changed into t
"What's up with that devilish smirk?" the short-haired man asked. When he came from the washroom, he saw that his friend was smirking while looking at his laptop. He wondered if his friend really has memory loss because he remembers almost everything before the accident; so why does his friend thought like that? The one with the specs quickly stopped smirking and closed that window he was looking at. They heard that two people from that room ended their conversation and were about to leave, so they stopped hearing and he closed his laptop. He paid the bill and they both went outside. Gon supported Master Song as he was a little drunk. When he came outside, a man was standing near the exit. He excused that man. That man was wearing a black jacket and cap and must be waiting for his friend. He was almost tall as him. That man apologized and moved aside, "Sorry." Gon looked at him since this cold voice felt familiar. He was about to take
