“Honey. I’m here.”
Song In-sook quickly received Ahn Jung-gyu’s suitcase, which looked like he was about to collapse from exhaustion, with a pitiful expression on his face.
“are you okay?”
“Uh, let’s have a glass of cool water.”
Hearing Ahn Jung-gyu’s words, Song In-sook quickly brought water.
Ahn Jeong-gyu drank cold water in one go, making a gulping sound, burped with a ‘kkeok’ sound, and looked around the quiet house.
“Nothing happened, right?”
“Yeah. Sure.”
“Are they sleeping?”
“It’s 2 in the morning. Who goes on a business trip every week?”
“That’s right. I’m having a hard time because the two good guys are missing. Starting next week, they’ll be back, so I’ll be able to catch my breath.”
“The company doesn’t give you more money for working like that.”
“I’m the manager. I have to cover everything that the employees can’t cover. Is there anything I can do?”
As Ahn Jeong-gyu took off his shoes, Song In-sook covered her nose from the bitter smell.
“Change your socks!”
“It’s raining torrentially.”
“Wash up and go sit at the table. I’ll make you some Ssanghwa tea.”
“Oh my. It’s good.”
After washing up, Ahn Jeong-gyu relieved his fatigue by drinking Ssanghwa tea brewed by Song In-sook.
“Did what you did go well?”
Ahn Jeong-gyu shook his head at Song In-sook’s words.
“not really.”
“Oh my. I had such a hard time.”
“Still, I got what I worked for. The only problem is which one to choose between the two.”
“Do you think such construction projects were largely influenced by the regime?”
“Well, these are countries that recently became independent from the Soviet Union. The influence of the regime is very strong.”
“Can’t I just close my eyes and take the picture?”
At those words, Ahn Jeong-gyu hugged Song In-sook and burst into laughter.
“I think we should appoint my wife as team leader.”
“Oh! That’s gross. Why are you like this?”
Although she said that, Song In-sook’s expression did not seem to dislike her, and Ahn Jeong-gyu held her and entered the living room.
“Let’s go to bed quickly.”
However, after a while, Song In-sook became very impressed.
It was Ahn Jeong-gyu who snored as soon as his head touched the bed.
“This human! Really…”
However, she took the blanket out of the closet and covered it well over Ahn Jeong-gyu’s body.
‘I should understand.’

Saturday morning.
Choi Hye-na visited Choi Young-jun’s house with gifts for her nephews.
“It’s been a while since I’ve been to your house.”
I keep pretending to be scolded.
“Miss, are you here?”
“Sister! How are you?”
“Of course. As long as you do well, there will be no problem for us. But it seems like something has changed?”
Choi Hye-na smiled and nodded.
Choi Young-jun’s wife, Lee Yu-jin, was a truly ordinary woman.
He looked ordinary, and his family wasn’t particularly good.
While I was working as a kindergarten teacher after graduating from the Department of Child Welfare, I met Youngjun Choi by chance and they ended up getting married.
This was possible because Choi Gyeong-hoon, who had completely let go of Choi Young-jun, did not care who he married.
However, Choi Young-jun, who had gradually changed after getting married, was now trying to enter the battle for succession.
Lee Yu-jin was also treated as someone who did not exist, but as Choi Young-jun’s position gradually expanded, she was recently receiving attention from Choi Kyeong-hoon in her own way.
‘The reason my brother changed… is probably because of my sister.’
“It’s a little different. How do you feel?”
“I think the current style is good too.”
Choi Hye-na smiled and nodded, and handed Lee Yu-jin several paperbacks.
“Wow, what did you buy so much?”
“It’s been a while since I’ve seen my nephews.”
“If you keep buying me expensive gifts like this, I’m getting into a bad habit!”
“Surely? We don’t have to go back with this heavy thing, do we?”
Lee Yu-jin lightly nodded and smiled at Choi Hye-na’s words.
“It’s not polite to refuse a favor. Come on in.”
“What about Dong-yeop and Sang-yeop?”
“Yesterday, my uncle came and took me to my mother’s house. The children are so engrossed in farm work these days.”
Lee Yu-jin held Choi Hye-na’s hand tightly and headed to the study on the second floor.
“Honey! She’s here!”
“Oh! Come in.”
When I opened the door to the study and entered, Youngjun Choi, who had been buried among a pile of books, got up.

“I’m here.”
“Oh, yes! Welcome back.”
“I’ll bring some refreshments.”
Yu-jin Lee went down, and Hye-na Choi looked around Young-jun Choi’s study.
There were all kinds of books piled up so that it could be called a library.
“Oppa, this is really strange.”
“why?”
“What book are you looking at like that?”
Youngjun Choi closed the book titled ‘Principles of the Touch Screen’ and walked towards the sofa.
“If I had seen it when I was a student, I wouldn’t have had to study at such a late age.”
“Ha! I hear that from your mouth.”
“I can’t even see clearly these days due to presbyopia.”
“I still can’t believe my brother reads books.”
Choi Young-jun took off his glasses, brushed off his tangled hair, and laid down on the sofa.
“It’s hard to believe that you, who were called bookworms before you went to study abroad, don’t have a single book in the house you live in now.”
“Why are you saying that? I’m praising you.”
“That’s a compliment to me too. When you read a book, the line between reality and ideals becomes blurry. You’ve struck a good balance now, right?”
“What? Now you’re admonishing me for reading a book, or what?”
Choi Hye-na, who pouted her mouth, also sat on the sofa across from her, and Choi Young-jun smiled cheerfully.
“So, what do you want to get advice from this guy?”
“I found someone I like.”
“Yeah. I told you that last time.”
Choi Young-jun was able to see Kim Cheol-soo in the eyes of Choi Hye-na, who said without much hesitation that she had someone she liked.
“You really have changed, too. I see you say that so casually.”
“Well, I like it because I like it.”
“So, I found someone I like, why?”
“I want to marry that person.”
Choi Youngjun’s eyes sparkled.
Marrying something you like is a completely different story.
‘Have these guys already made that much progress?’
“You can do it, right? I’ve always lived the way I wanted.”
“But that’s a bit of a difficult situation.”
“why?”
“The person I like is an employee at my brother’s company. So I came to get advice from him.”
“Because of your father?”
“Yes. You know what my father will do if he doesn’t like me.”
Choi Youngjun burst into laughter on the inside, but on the outside he pretended not to notice and made a light expression.
“That’s right. So you want to get advice from me?”
“Yes. Your brother is the only one in our family who got married of his own accord?”
Youngjun Choi answered by gently scratching his chin with his fingers.
“Hmm. I think I can be of help.”
“really?”
“Okay then. If everything goes well, you should help me too.”
“of course!”
Choi Young-jun thought as he looked at Choi Hye-na’s face full of anticipation.
‘This situation is also quite fun.’
“Now tell me. Who is that man?”
**
“Who is this?”
“Oh my, I couldn’t visit you because I was exiled to Buam-dong for a long time.”
“Hehehe! I guess I’ll be able to breathe a little easier from now on.”
“How are you so thin?”
At the conversation between the two, several people around them covered their mouths and giggled, and Lee Jun-hak and Pyo Il-soo, who glanced around, cleared their throats with a humble expression.
“Hey, I’m going to forget your face!”
“Haha, I forgot Team Leader Pyo’s face a long time ago.”
“Cheolsu used to come over every weekend and help with work, but aren’t you being a bit mean?”
“Hey, isn’t it unfair to compare him to Cheolsu? I also helped Hansoo on the phone whenever I could.”
“Still, I feel a bit relieved that you and Cheolsu are back. So, was there something different about the atmosphere there?”
Pyo Il-soo secretly asked about the talent source, and Lee Jun-hak shook his head.
“I felt like I was back in high school?”
“Eh?”
“I had classes continuously from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.”
“What? Bring some people to work.”
“That’s right. Haha.”
Lee Jun-hak suddenly smiled as he saw Pyo Il-soo looking at him with pitiful eyes.
“Conductor.”
“why?”
“But is Assistant Manager Park harassing you every night these days?”
Pyo Il-soo responded to Lee Jun-hak’s words with an awkward smile.
“Ugh. I’ve lost some weight these days.”
“I was wondering if you lost weight because of working, but I guess you didn’t.”
“Man, I still worked twice as much as usual. Even if it’s just me, Manager Ahn is having a hard time. He was on a business trip for four weeks.”
“Ukraine?”
“Yeah. He’s going to toss it to you today.”
“Did it go well?”
Pyo Il-soo hardened his complexion and shook his head.
“There are too many competitors.”
“Um… wouldn’t it be okay to modify the conditions a bit?”
“That’s a problem for later.”
Looking at Lee Jun-hak, who tilted his head, Pyo Il-soo chewed and ate his food.
“There is a Ukrainian presidential election at the end of April. Which side to take is the top priority.”
“Why is everything in that neighborhood like that?”
“It’s because most of the construction is done with government support.”
“Who are the strong candidates?”
“I can’t predict the lead. The opinion poll results are the same, and the local atmosphere is the same.”
A situation where you have to choose one of the two and compete again with the competitors who chose the winner.
Unpredictable gambling was the method salespeople hated the most.
Lee Jun-hak frowned, and Pyo Il-soo continued.
“That’s why Manager Ahn keeps going on business trips and checking the local situation himself, but he also seems to be at a loss.”
“Ha, the atmosphere must be scary.”
“You’ve been so irritable these days. Thanks to you, I don’t have to leave work early on Friday.”
“Uh, really?”
“That’s right. So, please resolve the Ukraine issue quickly. I’m always nagging at home for being late.”
