2. How Firmly You Hold Your...

"And rest we will continue in the next lecture, that's it for today." by saying this the professor ended the last lecture of that day.

Adjusting her glasses with her finger, Su Yeon woke up from her dream. It was not a dream but a memory of some years ago.

"I truly envy people like you who shamelessly sleep during lecture and still score O grade(1)!" with a thud, Min Seong, Su Yeon's deskmate and best friend in university, started keeping books in her bag.

Kim Min Seong is a 5'6 ft tall, smart, confident, and straight forward yet well-behaved person. Her long, jet-black hair and honey-colored skin compliment her personality.

Yan Su laughed at both of them. Oh Yan Su has the same height as Min Seong and a delicate snow-white skin. She is also a ballet dancer. The trio studies in the same class of the senior year, majoring in business and finance at Imperial Business University.

And lastly our little dwarf Yoon Su Yeon. She is a simple because she hates complicated things, is lazy and introverted but a fun-loving girl, a bit nerdy but likes to sleep in the lecture. In short, at least she thinks that she is simple but almost everyone thinks that she is complicated.

Su Yeon started thinking about that dream. Why this long-forgotten memory suddenly popped up now? She has already forgotten that day and that mysterious silver masked man. Why now?

The three of them went to a nearby cafe to have brunch. Su Yeon went near the counter to order. "Hey!" A boy who has the same height as Su Yeon came to her. He was one of their classmates.

He collected his drink and went to her saying "I need your guidance." Because he was rushing to her, he stumbled and was about to drop his drink.

Su Yeon caught both drink and him and said "Hey hey, be careful. How can you hold your glass so loosely, I wonder how firmly you hold your..." She paused.

The customers in front and back of her also paused.

Customer 1: Jesus!...

The person who was standing behind her also paused and smirked.

"Cash or card?"

Customer 1 who was standing before Su Yeon came out of thought and gave cash to the counter.

Su Yeon continued, "... I wonder how firmly you hold your brush while doing calligraphy. See that's why you face problems in it."

She once again looked here and there to find that person. She stopped a moment ago because she felt a certain someone's presence familiar. She thought that she knows that person but don't know who it is!

She saw that the person in front of her looks a bit familiar. She stopped a moment ago because she felt his presence familiar. The tall, well-built back of that man, the white coat in his hand and the faint smell of anesthetic indicating that he is from the medical field, felt familiar like someone she knows.

Maybe he is indeed familiar or maybe she is perverted??

Su Yeon shrugged off that thought. She happily talked with her friend, gave the order and then went to her table. "Su Yeon ah, now everything depends upon you. We did our best in theoretical aspects. Now you have to present our business model in your way," Min Seong said. Su Yeon opened her laptop and checked the email of the presentation Min Seong sent just now.

Looking at Su Yeon's smirk, Min Seong realized that something weird has started cooking inside her mind, so she declared, "Su Yeon ah, for god's sake, please keep the presentation simple and perfect. If you want, we will give witty answers at the critics round!" Min Seong sighed and laughed when Su Yeon gave a cheeky smile. 

This is how things work between them. Yan Su and Min Seong look after theoretical matters like writing theory, lecture notes, etc. while Su Yeon does calculations, doubt solving, and presentation work. The trio happily chatted and went in their ways.

...

On the other hand, the young man who was standing before her was trying his best not to look back. He went towards his table and started talking with the person sitting in front of him.

He realized that from this angle, the girl could easily see him so he said, "Professor, if you don't mind, can you please exchange seats with me? Ahh... actually I can't resist the direct flow of the air conditioner," while pointing towards the air conditioner. 

The man who was sitting with him nodded with a confused face and exchanged the seats with him.

After exchanging the seats, the man realized something and thought, 'Did he exchanged seats because of that girl... probably not,'

This thought made him sad and a bit disappointed, 'Yes right, they don't even know each other... Stupid me, here I thought maybe he will recognize her and they will at least become friends... but now, I have to accept that they are not the people I am looking for...' He looked at both the young man in front of him and the girl sitting few seats behind him, who talking happily with her friends.

He froze when he accidentally made eye contact with the girl. 'Is she... looking for him...?' and like that the extreme sorrow in his heart was immediately replaced by curiosity. He squinted his eyes to see the familiar ID card and got surprised, 'Imperial Business University?... I finally got a lead!'

    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

    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

    Li Kang Jun was enjoying his wife’s desires. He slowed his movements to let his wife take advantage of him. Turning around, he saw Su Yeon looking at him from top to bottom with dizzy bewitched eyes, making him lose control of himself.Clutching his jaw, he took a threatening step forward and grabbed her by her waist before she could even think of running away.Su Yeon placed both her palms on his chest and looked at him with her dizzy eyes, “Promise me that… you will take care of yourself,” she said and moved closer to him, her hand moved up and her fingers gently traced the faint dark circles below his eyes, “you won’t skip meals, or sleep late for your work… promise?”Li Kang Jun held her palm with his other hand, “I promise,” he placed a gentle kiss on her knuckles, making her eyes flutter. To tease his little wife more, he moved his face near her a little. When she noticed it, Su Yeon’s hesitant eyes wandered around his deathly handsome face and cruel sensual lips. The evident de

    Even after everyone was done eating, Kang Jun was still busy with his meeting. When he was done, he went downstairs and was about to call the butler, just then his sharp eyes caught something unexpected, relieving his tensed face… On the dining table, all the dishes were covered with the lid and two plates were kept aside… but the most unexpected thing was the person who was waiting for him there… It was his beloved wife… sleeping peacefully with her head resting on the folded hands on the table. She must be waiting for a long to get dozed off. Kang Jun sent the dishes for reheating and sat beside his sleeping beauty. With his face resting on the propped fist, he gently slid off the hair strand on her face behind her ear with his other hand. His warm rough yet gentle touch made Su Yeon’s eyes open slowly, “Oh, wasseo?” she got up, “Wait, let me reheat the dishes—” holding her wrist, Li Kang Jun stopped her, “I have already sent them, but why are you still here?” Su Yeon tried to

The Judge cleared his throat a little and said, “Plaintiff’s counselor, you may begin questioning the defendant.” From the Plaintiff’s table, Lawyer Li came forward and gave a formal bow, “Your Honor, members of the jury, my name is Li Jeong Wook, representing the Plaintiff, Yoon Su Yeon in this case.” Glancing at the notepad in his hand once, he turned to the defendant, Mr. Zhu, and started questioning.
