...

Even though they were the same company, the Fed could only roll its eyes in the heavy air.

But he fixed his gaze on the floor as he was stared at by the sharp gaze that was scanning him.

ํ์ฅ
So...the two of you are getting engaged?

์ด์ฌ์ฃผ
That...Choi Yeonjun


์ต์ฐ์ค
why?


์ด์ฌ์ฃผ
...That's what my father wants to see


์ต์ฐ์ค
Ah, I have to meet your father... Oh... If it's the director's father...


์ต์ฐ์ค
You must be the chairman...?


์ด์ฌ์ฃผ
yes


์ต์ฐ์ค
Haha...we should meet...then...


์ด์ฌ์ฃผ
You don't have to push yourself too hard


์ด์ฌ์ฃผ
There's no need to do that for someone you don't really love.


์ต์ฐ์ค
No... I'll see you, Chairman... haha...


์ต์ฐ์ค
Even if you work at a company your whole life, you might not meet someone.


์ต์ฐ์ค
As a proxy...ha...ha


์ด์ฌ์ฃผ
I'm sorry..


์ต์ฐ์ค
No, it's not your fault, sir...

-Again now

ํ์ฅ
So...the two of you are getting engaged?


์ด์ฌ์ฃผ
Yes, Mr. Chairman.

ํ์ฅ
...


์ต์ฐ์ค
yes...

ํ์ฅ
Did you say you were Manager Choi Yeonjun?


์ต์ฐ์ค
Yes, that's right

ํ์ฅ
When did you meet the female protagonist?


์ด์ฌ์ฃผ
I've known you as a coworker for quite some time.

ํ์ฅ
I didn't ask you


์ด์ฌ์ฃผ
...


์ต์ฐ์ค
This... no, it's the same as what my sister said...

ํ์ฅ
You're so young, aren't you worried about getting engaged already?


์ด์ฌ์ฃผ
father!


์ต์ฐ์ค
It's a bit burdensome though...

ํ์ฅ
I knew it...


์ต์ฐ์ค
But still, the other person is my older sister... haha

ํ์ฅ
what?


์ต์ฐ์ค
I thought it would be okay if it was my older sister...


์ด์ฌ์ฃผ
...

ํ์ฅ
Really? Then which place in Yeoju is good?


์ด์ฌ์ฃผ
father...

ํ์ฅ
Why, wouldn't any father with a daughter be curious?


์ต์ฐ์ค
A..right haha...

ํ์ฅ
So, what's good about Yeoju?

ํ์ฅ
Isn't it blunt and too knife-like?


์ต์ฐ์ค
You have the determination and know how to distinguish between public and private matters.

ํ์ฅ
You're good at talking

The chairman spoke bluntly, but he couldn't erase the smile that was playing on his lips.

ํ์ฅ
So, what did you plan to do tonight?


์ด์ฌ์ฃผ
I was going to get an engagement ring fitted.

ํ์ฅ
When will you make the announcement to the company?


์ด์ฌ์ฃผ
Later


์ด์ฌ์ฃผ
It's still a bit late for Yeonjun to take over...

ํ์ฅ
Well... I guess there might be a sense of distance between you and the other employees.


์ต์ฐ์ค
Thank you for your consideration.

ํ์ฅ
Yeah, did I keep you two for too long? Just go.


์ด์ฌ์ฃผ
yes


์ต์ฐ์ค
Well then...

ํ์ฅ
for a moment

ํ์ฅ
You just stay a moment


์ด์ฌ์ฃผ
...?

ํ์ฅ
There's something for men to talk about, you go out now.

At the chairman's words, Yeonjun looked at Yeoju with wavering eyes.

Yeoju left without even seeing Yeonjun's eyes.

Thump-

The door is closed

ํ์ฅ
Yeah... how much progress has been made?

Yeonjun, who was taking a sip of tea out of nervousness,


์ต์ฐ์ค
Ugh...sigh...huh

ํ์ฅ
Haha, he has a cute side, I think he'll get along well with the female lead.

Even as the atmosphere lightened with laughter, Yeonjun continued to cough, cooling his flushed face.

ํ์ฅ
You should go now too

ํ์ฅ
It's not polite to make a woman wait for a long time.


์ต์ฐ์ค
Okay, then I'll really go now.

ํ์ฅ
Yeah, be nice to the heroine


์ต์ฐ์ค
...Of course hehe

- Department store near the company


์ด์ฌ์ฃผ
Where do you want to go?


์ต์ฐ์ค
Uh... isn't it too expensive here?


์ด์ฌ์ฃผ
I brought my father's card.


์ต์ฐ์ค
...


์ด์ฌ์ฃผ
By the way, what were we talking about earlier?


์ต์ฐ์ค
...it's a secret


์ด์ฌ์ฃผ
Just say it


์ต์ฐ์ค
I can't say...


์ด์ฌ์ฃผ
...Is that so?


์ต์ฐ์ค
...sorry.


์ด์ฌ์ฃผ
I'm sorry


์ต์ฐ์ค
...


์ด์ฌ์ฃผ
Look at the rings, there are so many different types.


์ด์ฌ์ฃผ
My ring finger is size 8.


์ต์ฐ์ค
You're so thin...


์ด์ฌ์ฃผ
The ring finger is usually like this.


์ด์ฌ์ฃผ
What about Mr. Yeonjun?


์ต์ฐ์ค
I'm about 12


์ด์ฌ์ฃผ
Even for a man, Choi Yeonjun seems to have very thin hands.


์ต์ฐ์ค
Is that so...

The female protagonist was surprised at Yeonjun's thin hands and started to look at them closely.


์ต์ฐ์ค
Ahem..hem..

For some reason, Yeonjun turned his head away from the ringing in his ears.



์ด์ฌ์ฃผ
Hmm... how about this?


์ต์ฐ์ค
Oh..it's pretty


์ด์ฌ์ฃผ
Then let's do this


์ด์ฌ์ฃผ
What should I wear for my wedding ring?


์ต์ฐ์ค
Sigh... sigh...


์ด์ฌ์ฃผ
Mr. Yeonjun... you're having fun, aren't you?


์ต์ฐ์ค
Don't tease me...


์ด์ฌ์ฃผ
Okay, lol. Then let's use this ring.


์ต์ฐ์ค
yes...

The heroine smiled as she put the ring on her finger, as if she really liked it.

The Fed was trying hard to avoid such a situation.


์ด์ฌ์ฃผ
You must have chosen a ring. Let's go.


์ด์ฌ์ฃผ
I'll take you there.


์ต์ฐ์ค
Oh, thank you

After some awkward time without any conversation

Before we knew it, Yeoju's car had arrived at the officetel.


์ด์ฌ์ฃผ
I've arrived


์ต์ฐ์ค
Thank you for bringing me.


์ด์ฌ์ฃผ
What? I'll see you at work tomorrow.

As soon as the conversation ended, the heroine rolled up the window and left.

The atmosphere was so stiff that it didn't feel like an engagement.

Yeonjun fiddled with the ring on his fourth finger for no reason.


์ต์ฐ์ค
...

Yeonjun, who had been staring at the path Yeoju had taken for a moment, soon moved on to the officetel.

I thought it was just my imagination that the bag containing the contract felt heavier than usual.
