Chapter 141:


When Jinseok pulled over the car for a moment in sync with the signal, she didn't say anything until Jinseok, who had become restless, asked.

"How did it go?"

"Hmm? Oh, I haven't checked yet."

"Check it quickly. I'm curious."

"Um"

With a contemplative smile, Seo Yeonsoo fiddled with her mobile phone.

"I'll check when I get home. Feeling a bit nervous."

She smiled again as she put the phone back into her pocket. I had expected her to check immediately.

When I gave Seo Yeonsoo a puzzled look, she seemed to be aware of my gaze and said with a smile, "It gets awkward I failed for no reason. I'll check alone at home and let you know right away."

I was curious about the results, but I couldn't keep pressing when the person involved said that.

With Yeonsoo, it seems like she'll pass.'

While I was thinking that,

"If you're worried that it might have failed, you can check."

Jang Sunho said, pushing away Go Seoyeong, who was clinging to him from behind.

"Ms. Seo Yeonsoo has passed."

"Yes, really?!"

"Although it's a profile review, congratulations."

The next morning, Jang Sunho's officetel.

"Assistant Go Seoyeong, I really won't drink with you again."

Jang Sunho said sternly, changing into a neatly ironed shirt. In response, Go Seoyeong, with a reddened face behind him, clapped his hands, unsure of what to do.

"I-I'm sorry. I don't usually drink like that"

"Not being able to drink is not the problem. In front of the actress and Ms. Seo Yeonsoo, making a scene is bad enough. And to make matters worse, after putting you up for the night, did I hear words like pervert or harasser when I woke up?"

"Ah, no. It's not like that. I was just surprised lying on a bed I'd never seen before, and when the team leader came into the room, I was shocked"

""

"Some people slept in a decent house, but they stayed in a motel late at night."

"I-I'm sorry."

As Go Seoyeong bowed deeply, Jang Sunho stopped scolding her. He shook his head and chose a high-quality tie and tie pin that he often used for meetings.

Unable to respond to Jang Sunho's continuous admonition since morning, Go Seoyeong could only acknowledge her mistake obediently. Her manner of admitting her fault was quite submissive.

"If you've come to your senses, get up quickly and have a meal. I have a meeting at BDD Broadcasting Station today, so I have to leave now."

Jang Sunho checked the time. If he left now, he would arrive 15 minutes earlier than the meeting time. He put on the jacket he had prepared in advance and left the room, saying,

"As we promised yesterday, don't come to work today. If there's anything urgent, I'll take care of it, so don't worry."

"Ah Yes."

"I'm off."

With that, Jang Sunho went out of the house. Watching his back in a daze, Go Seoyeong came out of bed and headed to the living room. On the small table between the living room and the kitchen, a meal prepared by Jang Sunho was set up.

[If the food has cooled down, please microwave it. After you finish eating, I bought a hangover cure, so take it. Don't worry about washing or cleaning up; I'll take care of it when I come back. Just leave the dishes on the table.]

There was a Post-it note on the cloth covering the meal. It was written in Jang Sunho's neat handwriting that she had seen often.

"Did he write this in advance, thinking I might be asleep in the morning?"

Go Seoyeong pushed aside the note and the cloth. There were five side dishes, soup, and freshly cooked ricea neat arrangement that could fit into a family CF.

Representative Lee Youngkyung sat at the head of the long circular table, with branch managers from 1 to 6 sitting on either side.

Lee Youngkyung glared at the branch managers one by one before speaking in a bitter voice.

"When we I mean, when you belittle Kang Jinseok, the more you bring him down, the more he seems to shine. Am I the only one who feels that way?"

Everyone, except Branch Manager 1, swallowed dry saliva at the representative's words.

"Well, it's not your fault that his image has improved because of what happened at Kang Jinseok's pub this time. But"

Branch Managers 3, 4, 5, and 6 became more tense because they knew Lee Youngkyung's words were directed at them.

Branch Manager 3, who had recently come to his senses due to the incident with Kwon Seokhoon, had hands trembling beneath the table.

"It's true that your leniency towards Kang Jinseok has allowed his little trick to work. Am I wrong?"

"Oh, no!"

"Your words are accuraaccurate. Yes."

The sinners replied in unison, not to unnecessarily provoke Lee Youngkyung's mood. Lee Youngkyung cast a chilling gaze over these sinners.

"Can't even manage to get him one actor and role. Failed to ruin the atmosphere on set. Now, failing even to handle it directly, and our actors being taken away?"

""

"Our proud branch managers jointly created a big mess. Isn't that right?"

Except for Branch Managers 1 and 2, the four sinners exchanged glances. Anyone could step forward and try to appease Lee Youngkyung's discomfort.

However, your four managers, lacking the courage, could only hope that Lee Youngkyung's anger wouldn't escalate too much.

"Now, as we're about to start shooting the audition program, Kang Jinseok's face, that guy's face, will be all over the place for a while. I'll have to endure that sight again."

""

"But am I the only one who feels this way? Why is everyone silent? Hey!"

Bang!

Lee Youngkyung slammed the table, causing the managers, particularly those excluding Manager 1, to flinch.

"Trusting these guys, saying I went on business trips to Japan, China. It's unbelievable, just unbelievable."

Lee Youngkyung paused for a moment, started smoking a cigarette, and tapped the table with his fingertips.

"Manager 1, what do you think about the current situation?"

Looking directly at Manager 1 sitting across from him, Lee Youngkyung asked abruptly.

Manager 1, without being flustered by the sudden question, calmly responded, "I believe there's a lot for our KL Entertainment to reflect on for being so domineering toward one actor and one company. The responsibility lies with each manager, but I also think it's with me, the overall manager, who couldn't control them effectively."

"Responsibility for Manager 1 too?"

"Yes."

"Hmm"

Lee Youngkyung made a displeased sound, then, as if annoyed, combed his gray hair back and said, "Does Manager 1 understand our current situation?"

"Of course not. It's an unacceptable situation-"

"No, that's not it. Do you understand why we're helplessly dealing with this situation?"

At this remark, Manager 1 looked at the sinners with a pitiful expression.

"If that's the understanding you have, it's even worse. Even a stray dog eats its share before going home. Yet, KL Entertainment is suffering in South Korea, not even abroad. It's absurd."

"That's what I'm saying. Our managers, all of you have done well so far, right? We put up the celebrities we wanted, asked whatever we wanted from them"

""

"So I've been thinking carefully, and there seems to be only one reason for this situation."

Lee Youngkyung pierced Manager 1 with cold eyes as he stated, "My conclusion is this."

""

"There is a traitor in this meeting room."
