Business Friends

I met you again

"It's time to come...."












Kwon Soon-young, Vice Chairman of Seven Group, is known for being cold and indifferent to people.
Anyone who saw Sunyoung waiting excitedly for someone found it strange. Judging by the fact that she didn't have any companions or a carrier, she wasn't going anywhere... She seemed to be desperately looking for someone.









"Oh, there it is."








He was walking quickly as if he was looking for that person.
The other person also smiled as if he saw Sunyoung.









"Hi."

"....?"

"Can you give your phone number?"
(Can I have your number?)








Soonyoung felt her blood running backwards. She was being held captive by some unfamiliar foreign man... She was unnecessarily kind, but she couldn't refuse him, and was at a loss.






"Sorry..I'm bussy..."
(Sorry, I'm busy.)

"Hey! wait.."
(Excuse me! Wait...)









The moment he reached out to grab her, someone grabbed his wrist.






"...What"
(...what)

"She is mine"
(She is my girlfriend.)











The foreigner cursed quietly and left.
Perhaps because she was nervous, she finally sighed in relief and looked up to see Soonyoung, who was putting her arm around her shoulder.










"That foreign kid..."

"Hey...hold on, hold on..."

"Whew...are you okay?"

"What are you going to do about getting hurt?"

"You never know~"

photo
"When did you come?"

"As soon as I heard the news of your return"

"Are you going straight to work?"

"You haven't eaten. Let's eat before we go."

"Okay! Haha"








Even the cold Sunyoung smiles faintly at her laughter.
He came out of the airport as if he was familiar with it and opened his car door.
The two continued their conversation on the way there.







"It's been a while since I've been to Korea~"

"It's been 4 years?... You left when you were 20."

"Right. You didn't even catch me back then."

"We're not going to cry and tell you not to go."

"If you've been friends for 10 years, that's possible."

Plus Business Partner









Surprisingly, these two have been friends for 10 years, since middle school.
And a friend and business partner.
Even at a young age, a famous American publisher called ○○ after reading his book that brought emotion to writing.
With that opportunity, ○○ became a world-famous beautiful writer, not just in Korea. While her friend was in the United States, Soonyoung prepared to take over Seven Group, a global company run by her father, at a young age.
I got the position of headquarters manager.
Of course, other people are eyeing Soonyoung's position. How upset would he be to have a child who is old enough to be his grandson become the vice president?
Anyway, ○○ decided to move to the company as a writer for Seven Group in Korea and is now
It's been 4 years since I came to Korea.










"Ugh~~It's spicy..."

"I can't eat spicy food, but I really like tteokbokki."

"I really wanted to eat something spicy! It's bitter..."













So, those world-class people, those people who could shake South Korea with a single article, are right now eating tteokbokki at a street food stall.











"Ah!..You called me your girlfriend earlier."

"No?"

"What did you say?"

"Then are you going to pretend not to know?"

"...That's true."












If you look at them normally, they seem like real friends...









"Hey, you asked"

"where?"

"Come. I'll clean it for you."








...Who would call this a real friend...
At that moment, Sunyoung's phone rang.







photo
"Hello? Yes. I'll go now."

"...?"

"Okay, just take care of that."





Stop






"Should I go now?"

"Yeah.. If you're done eating, do you want to go together?"

"okay."









This is the first time I've been to Sunyoung's company in 4 years.
When I was young. When I really didn't know anything. It was the place we went together because Soonyoung had to stop by her father's company for a bit. After that, Soonyoung became close with her father, and this place became a familiar place to ○○.
Sunyoung's secretary came into Sunyoung's office.











"The chief is here....Wow..."

photo
"Oh, hello haha"

"Uh...hello..."

photo
"...the contract"

"Oh, yes."









The secretary was momentarily stunned at the sight of ○○, who was prettier than most celebrities, but seeing the look in Sunyoung's eyes, he thought that if he continued talking to her, he would lose his job.









"Would you like a cup of coffee?"

photo
"Do you want some coffee?"

"Yeah, it's okay."









The secretary still couldn't get used to Soonyoung taking care of others.
After checking the contract the secretary brought several times, Sunyoung hands it to ○○ along with a pen.
Anyway, these two are friends but also business partners.
○○ held a pen and signed.








"Contract complete. Do I need to read the contents?"

"What... there's no way there's going to be a scam between us?"

"If you trust people too much, they'll disappear in an instant."

photo
"....Really scamming me?"

photo
"Are you sure it's real? Haha"









The sight of Sunyoung laughing and talking was just a surprise to the secretary.
When signing a contract with a pretty actress, model, or girl group, the purpose is simple. No, they send someone else to sign the contract in the first place.
Because it was Sunyoung, Sunyoung's secretary was suspicious of whether the person in front of her was Sunyoung.

"Did you lose weight after going to America?"

"Huh? I guess I gained weight? I relieved my stress by eating while writing, lol"

"Hey. You look as skinny as celebrities."

"Hey, that's not it."

"It'll take a while to clean it."

"...I cancel the contract?"

"Whoa, whoa...calm down."

"Hahaha I guess I should watch it when I get older."

"already?"

"Already~ haha ​​It's been a while since I came to Korea so I should meet my friends."

"Okay. Call me when you get there."

photo
"huh."











At that moment, ○○'s cell phone flashed.









-Senior Jisoo-









Sunyoung felt uncomfortable with that smile that was not hers but someone else's.
Especially Hong Ji-soo. I hate her even more because she's that kind of person.








"Are you in contact with Senior Jisoo?"

"Yeah. I'm going to drink with Jisoo-sunbaenim, Seulgi, and Jihoon today. Do you want to come too?"











I usually drink alcohol incorrectly and I don't like it, so I avoid drinking parties.
But somehow I feel like I have to take this seat.









"I'll go right after I finish work. Where should I go?"

photo
"I'll send it to you by text. Come when you have time! Haha"









○○ left and Sunyoung was lost in thought.












You whom I met again











Still good
There are still a lot of people besides me
Still smiling
Still pretty.
