Our president is my best friend Jeon Jungkook

전정국
What, me? I, no, I don't like it at all!?
김태형
Then why are you asking if I like you? Isn't it because you're jealous?
전정국
Not at all!? It's just... I'm worried that you won't be able to do your job properly because of Song Yeo-ju..!!
김태형
I don't like it lol
전정국
..really?
김태형
Oh. By the way, I don't think Yeoju remembers you. I heard she really liked you in high school.
전정국
Oh. But then one day when I was in my third year of high school, he suddenly stopped following me.
김태형
why?
전정국
I don't know, it's me.
김태형
Hmm...but you had a crush on someone in high school.
전정국
uh.
김태형
Who is he?
전정국
You don't have to know.
김태형
What the... But it seems like that girl has no idea that you liked her.
김태형
You don't show any sign of liking me lol
전정국
..is that what I want?
카페 알바생
Here's the iced Americano you ordered~
송여주
thank you!!
송여주
Mr. Chairman, here's some coffee...
전정국
Oh, yes.
송여주
But Mr. Chairman, you have to go to the meeting right now.
전정국
Oh.. I got a call saying that the meeting has been postponed.
송여주
Oh, yes.
김태형
Miss Yeoju, it's lunch time now. Would you like to go have lunch with me?
송여주
Okay haha
Ah, lunch with Taehyung!! I was so happy when the chairman tapped me on the shoulder.
송여주
why?
전정국
Then who do I eat with?
송여주
Well, eat with your staff.
전정국
The secretary is supposed to eat with the chairman, right?
송여주
Where is that!!
전정국
That's how it was originally.
김태형
Hey, be honest. Did you just make that up?
전정국
No, that's how it was originally!?
김태형
Then let's all go eat together.
송여주
yes..
I could have eaten alone with Taehyung... Why does Jeon Jungkook keep interrupting!?
전정국
Ms. Song Yeo-ju. You look displeased that I'm involved...is that right?
송여주
No, that's not it..
전정국
Well then that's good haha
Jeon Jungkook smiled brightly and led the way out of the chairman's office.
It's my first time seeing Jeon Jungkook smile... He really is handsome.
김태형
Miss Yeoju!!
송여주
yes?
김태형
What are you thinking? We should go quickly too.
송여주
Oh, yes.
We followed Jeon Jungkook to a restaurant outside the company. Then, suddenly, Taehyung spoke.
김태형
Miss Yeoju, something came up suddenly, so I have to go. I'm having dinner with the chairman.
전정국
Oh okay, bye haha
김태형
I think you're very happy to see me go, Mr. Chairman.
전정국
No...
김태형
Haha, I'll go. Yeoju, enjoy your meal and see you later. Right, can you give me your phone number?
김태형
We couldn't eat together this time, so let's eat together next time.
송여주
Ah, here it is!!
I gave Taehyung my number on his phone. He waved and left.
김태형
Thank you~
I waved to Taehyung and turned around, only to see Jeon Jungkook standing there with a look of annoyance on his face, his smile gone.
전정국
Did you just give your previous number to Kim Taehyung?
송여주
Yes. Why?
전정국
Okay, okay. Take a seat.
Jeon Jungkook and I sat down at the same table.
송여주
But why do you insist on eating outside the office? There's a cafeteria inside the office, too.
전정국
It's too noisy there. I like it quiet.
송여주
ah..
전정국
What would you like to eat?
I looked at the menu. But... why are all the prices so expensive!? Is that right, Chairman Jeon Jungkook?
Today is my first day at work and I haven't even gotten my paycheck... What should I do?
전정국
Ms. Song Yeo-ju?
송여주
I don't care about anything.. haha
Jeon Jungkook looked at me strangely as I was sweating profusely. Then he glanced at the menu and said.
전정국
Then I'll take care of it.
Jeon Jang-guk rang the bell to call a waiter. The waiter approached.
웨이터
Would you like to order?
전정국
Yes, please give me two sets of A.
웨이터
Yes, I understand~
How much is Set A? I glanced at the menu before the waiter brought it over, and the prices made my head spin. What should I do?
Jeon Jungkook stared at me, sweating profusely, and then opened his mouth.
전정국
Ms. Song Yeo-ju.
송여주
yes?
전정국
You really don't remember me?
송여주
Oh, I don't get it..
전정국
..all right.
A moment later, the food arrived. The table was filled with delicious-looking dishes. I swallowed hard and just stared at them.
전정국
eat.
Jeon Jungkook said this, handing me a fork and knife. I nodded and picked up the salad, which looked relatively cheap.
전정국
Don't you like steak?
송여주
no..
전정국
I eat with peace of mind because I live here.
송여주
But we still have to do it together..
전정국
I was originally going to eat it with Kim Taehyung, but I got in the way. Just eat it.
송여주
..then..
I ate steak. Wow, it was really delicious.. Jeon Jungkook looked at me and smiled.
Oh, did I eat too much...? Oh, but why should I care about this? It's not like I'm trying to maintain my image.
송여주
But really, I'll pay even a little bit..!!
전정국
It's okay.
송여주
I'm sorry, that's why.
전정국
Then let's do this. If you're really sorry, instead of paying for this, give me your phone number.
송여주
What's your phone number?
전정국
Well... I need to contact you when something urgent comes up...
It was cute how Jeon Jungkook kept spitting out words and beating around the bush. No, cute!? What are you talking about!?
전정국
Hurry up.
I took my phone, dialed the number, and handed it back.
전정국
Thank you haha
전정국
Yeah, kind of like that.
When I teased him, Jeon Jungkook was flustered. Jeon Jungkook has this side too, lol.
Then someone approached us.
송여주
You seem to really enjoy your work, don't you? You're so happy you got the number to handle urgent business.
여우림
Jeon Jungkook? And next to him... daebak, Song Yeoju?
