“That person resigned.”
Karma Corporation Headquarters CEO’s Office.
Upon returning for the first time in a while after the ranking review and evaluation were all over, Director Lee Ah-young delivered unexpected news.
“…Who are you talking about?”
“Who would it be? “It’s Choi Jong-hyuk.”
“ah.”
After hearing that name, a person I had forgotten for a while came to mind again.
“Well… there must have been a limit to what I could endure. “There are rumors like that going around the entire headquarters.”
“Are you saying that you attacked the head of the headquarters and then got kicked? So I guess they spread the rumor out of revenge.”
“I guess my usual behavior wasn’t very good to begin with. In particular, it is said that the women’s issue was famous within the team. “I used my mouth the wrong way and got it back in the same way.”
“Well, it’s a blessing to be self-employed.”
“…Why are you talking like someone else? “You spread it.”
I smiled.
Yes. I spread that rumor.
No, to be precise, I ordered it and Director Lee Ah-young spread it.
Right through Assistant Manager Song Hye-yeon of the support team.
Well, I know that he is close with Kim Min-joo, so even though it was quite a ridiculous story, it seems like he completely believed it.
In that way, the rumor quickly spread from Assistant Manager Song Hye-yeon to the support team and from the support team to the entire operations team.
It probably took less than a day for it to reach my ears.
No one said it out loud, but people’s perspectives and attitudes towards him would have changed.
It is said that the one who holds out wins, but no matter how sane he is, it would be difficult for him to hold out in such a situation.
In any case, I didn’t take any official action, so I kept my promise.
There will be no way to trip over this matter.
Just like he did, the instigator of that rumor will never be found.
“Anyway… have you looked into the person behind Director Park Jang-mok?”
At that time, Director Lee Ah-young asked vaguely.
“I tried… but it wasn’t easy. “There are over 200 members of the Future Democratic Party alone.”
“Still, there are only a few people who are influential enough to intervene in our company.”
“The problem is that it’s not written on their faces what kind of people they are.”
I thought that someone who had connections with international associations and could intervene in the company’s internal affairs would certainly have something unusual to do.
Therefore, we began investigating almost all members of the Future Democratic Party.
I searched through the district’s pledges, business policies, houses and real estate, and even how many votes he received during the election, but I couldn’t find anyone worthy of this.
Since director Park Jang-mok was arrested, I thought they might make some kind of move, such as getting him out or appointing a lawyer, but even that didn’t work out.
I wonder if they are saying that they will never use words once they have been said again…
In any case, no information has been obtained at the moment.
I don’t think I’ll find anything if I dig deeper.
‘At this point, it might be right to just give up…’
It’s unfortunate, but there’s nothing we can do.
I have no choice but to put it down for a while until I hear other news.
“Anyway, the screening is over. “I’d like to rest for a while.”
I sighed softly and leaned back against the backrest.
But for some reason, Director Lee Ah-young looked at me with a puzzled expression.
“What do you mean?”
“…yes?”
“The Seoul headquarters has just been completed. “Starting next week, the Suwon, Cheonan, and Busan branches will be examined.”
“….”
“After that, you go to the local branch, and once the domestic review is completed, you have to send the review data and evaluation criteria to each country’s association to conduct an overseas review.”
“Stop… I understand.”
Fuck.
Why doesn’t it decrease even if I work hard?
‘I think something’s wrong….’
Seeing him making such a truly tired expression, Director Lee Ah-young burst into laughter.
“Well, this is just business content. Now you don’t have to be in charge of the review yourself. Based on this review, each branch will proceed on its own.”
“…It’s a good thing to hear.”
“So you want to go on vacation?”
Director Lee Ah-young asked as he put the documents in.
But I already figured out her intentions, so I raised the corners of my mouth and answered.
“If I say I’m going, will you let me go?”
“no.”
“….”
also.
If you’re going to do that, you shouldn’t have asked in the first place.
Anyway, when you make fun of me, you’re being sincere.
“Well… I’ll think about it if I’m going with you.”
“Do you know where to go?”
“Anywhere.”
She spoke calmly and shrugged her shoulders.
Am I finally crazy?
No matter how much of a rumor it is, they are on vacation no matter how long it has been since the scandal broke out.
Is there anything that can ruin your dungeon life as a pair?
Thinking like that, I took off the crane for a moment.
‘…for a moment.’
Suddenly something crossed my mind.
“Ahaha. Just kidding. Just kidding. If you look at me with a straight face like that, it’s rather embarrassing…”
“You said you were going anywhere, right?”
“…yes yes?”
“let’s go.”
I looked at Director Lee Ah-young and spoke once more.
“Let’s go on vacation.”
“…Are you serious?”
“I’m serious.”
“….”
When I answered firmly, she suddenly turned away.
“…What is it? “Let’s talk first.”
“Oh no, I’m a little… embarrassed.”
But even for a moment.
“great. song.”
She turned her head and answered with her usual expression again.
“I will contact you as soon as the date and location are decided.”
“all right.”
She nodded calmly and left the office.

“Whoa….”
Kim Min-ju sat in the headquarters director’s office and let out a deep sigh.
I’ve been so hectic these past few days that I don’t even know what to do.
It was a disaster because there wasn’t much of a subjugation schedule. If I went on an orange level subjugation in this condition, I would definitely have had to give up one of my limbs.
Who would be different?
Even though I could tolerate the physical hardship well, the mental pain was difficult to endure.
Above all, it was my first time being caught up in such gossip, and I was not immune.
I tried my best not to show it, but it was quite painful.
‘…I guess I should at least buy you food.’
Kim Min-ju muttered that while thinking of him.
Of course, I knew that one meal wasn’t enough.
If it weren’t for him, I could have really taken my clothes off this time.
Even though sparks could have flown if I had been hasty in covering him up, I stepped forward to help him.
No, it didn’t seem like that thought was even in his mind in the first place.
In my heart, I would like to repay him even more… but it was obvious that he would not accept it due to his personality.
Above all, the rumors had finally died down, but if we were not careful, there might be another useless story.
‘As expected, it’s too much for me…’
Although the matter had already been resolved, Kim Min-ju still felt dizzy when she thought about what happened back then.
Even though I said I was working hard, something like this happened and I really lost confidence.
Honestly, I don’t know if I’m doing a good job.
In the first place, it wasn’t because of his own ability, it was just luck.
I accepted this position simply because I wanted to be of help to Kim Jun-woo, but… no matter how much I think about it, I still feel like I’m not good enough to sit in this position.
‘….’
Kim Min-joo thought more seriously than ever.
I am taking this opportunity to resign from my position as head of the division.
It is still too early for me to take this position.
I was afraid of the gaze of other hunters to keep holding on in the name of responsibility.
The general manager was so good at the representative line that he ignored his annual leave and sat down as a parachute.
This time, Choi Jong-hyuk only revealed that thought, but honestly, it seemed like other hunters were thinking the same thing.
In that case, wouldn’t it be better to stay as an operations team hunter for a few more years and then try again after building up skills that everyone can recognize?
It was a time when I was seriously thinking about that.
smart-.
Someone knocked on the office door.
“Can I come in?”
It was none other than Han Yubin.
“…yes yes.”
Kim Min-joo hurriedly managed his expression and greeted her.
Of course, that alone wasn’t enough to avoid Han Yubin’s eyes.
“what. “What’s wrong with your expression?”
“yes? “Oh, it’s nothing.”
“Isn’t it true? “The face is just…”
Han Yu-bin narrowed her eyes and continued speaking as she got closer to Kim Min-ju.
“It looks like he’s going to be the one to resign today.”
“….”
Kim Min-ju was shocked for a moment, but now there was nothing to hide.
“I… I’m thinking about quitting.”
“Hunter?”
“no. “The position of general manager.”
“Is that a position where you can go up when you want and go down when you want?”
“That’s not it, but…”
Kim Min-joo trailed off at Han Yu-bin’s sharp question.
Soon he lowered his gaze and opened his mouth quietly.
“I still think it’s too much for me. It seems like other hunters are also looking at it negatively…”
“Huh.”
Han Yu-bin reacted as if she was shocked.
Then he put his hand on his waist and spoke in a somewhat firm voice.
“I don’t have a good personality, so I can’t say things like that. “I can’t even comfort you.”
“…I know.”
“….”
Han Yubin’s eyebrows twitched for a moment.
When I admitted it, I felt strange for some reason.
“Quite… Anyway, so I’ll just give you the facts.”
Han Yu-bin said that and held out the envelope of documents she was holding in her hand to Kim Min-ju.
“This…?”
“Actually, I came here to give you this. “The screening results came out.”
Kim Min-ju swallowed his saliva immediately after hearing those words.
No matter what, it seemed like he was nervous.
She carefully opened the envelope and checked the documents.
Long review of scores for detailed evaluation items.
Putting all that aside, the first thing that caught my eye was….
< As a result of the screening, you have been promoted to S rank as of now. Congratulations. >
That was none other than that sentence.
“Uh huh…?”
Kim Min-ju looked at the document and Han Yu-bin alternately with a bewildered expression.
It was a natural reaction.
Reaching S rank didn’t just mean being promoted one level.
102nd in the world.
And the first in Korea.
In other words, it meant that as of this time, Kim Min-ju had become number one in the domestic rankings.
“No matter how much they criticize you, those are the facts. “If the first person in Korea to receive S rank is not suitable to be the head of the operations headquarters, then who is suitable?”
“….”
“So what do you think?”
Yubin Han continued speaking with a slight smile.
“How does it feel to be the best in Korea?”
“It’s not that I did well, but it was all thanks to the teacher’s help…”
“Oh really!”
Han Yu-bin eventually couldn’t hold back her frustration and raised her voice.
“That’s an underestimation, right? I know that person is amazing! That and the fact that he received S rank are separate, right? “You got it purely because of your skills, so be happy!”
“….”
Kim Min-joo lowered his head at those words.
Although his face was not visible, he seemed to be filled with quite complex emotions.
Han Yu-bin placed a hand on her shoulder and said.
“thank you for your effort.”
“…thank you.”
“I got a promotion, so I’d like to tell you to take a few days off… but that’s not going to work.”
“yes?”
“It’s the first S rank in the country.”
Yubin Han shrugged her shoulders and continued.
“Are you going to have a hard time with reporters for a while?”
“Ah…”
Kim Min-joo then smiled slightly.
It was a time when a warm atmosphere flowed through the office.
“Big deal! “We’re in big trouble!”
Director Lee Ah-young barged into the office.
“What is it?”
“What happened?”
At the same time, Han Yu-bin and Kim Min-ju immediately reacted seriously.
Director Lee Ah-young’s face looks quite flushed.
Moreover, seeing that he was unusually restless, it seemed like something unusual had happened.
“Mr. Joo Jun-woo…”
Director Lee Ah-young continued, trying to calm her heart.
“Let’s go on vacation together.”
“…?”
“…?”
At this truly unexpected answer, silence fell in the office for a moment.
But even for a moment.
“Now wait…!”
“That person actually said that?!”
“Really me?! “The teacher really asked Ayoung to come with you?!”
“why?! Oh no… were you interested in that person?!”
When I thought about it again, I realized that it was truly shocking news.
That world-class Kim Jun-woo asked a woman to go on vacation with him?
Han Yu-bin and Kim Min-ju were scared and rushed to the unimaginable situation.
“Oh, no, that was… I meant it as a joke, but they bit back.”
“Huh…”
“Teacher… I see you liked Ayoung…”
Everyone seemed to be in shock and couldn’t continue speaking for a while.
“So…”
Then Han Yu-bin opened her mouth with difficulty.
“How about there?”
“What is it?”
“What is it? Do you want to go?”
“….”
Lee Ah-young hesitated for a moment with a very awkward expression.
“It’s the CEO’s order, but I can’t refuse….”
“Well, I have a lot of excuses.”
If you’re being honest, why are you talking so much about something that should work?
Han Yubin shook her head and stood up.
“Then first…”
He then said, gesturing towards Director Lee Ah-young.
“Let’s go and buy some clothes to wear first.”
