The Junk Dealer Makes Good Money

[Episode 100] Meeting a precious relationship

Lee Si-woo, who held hands with Shin Ae-ra, smiled brightly at that moment.

Si-woo Lee thought of her as just an older sister of a civil servant with abilities.

A good-hearted senior in life.

However, recently, there has been a slight change in his mind.

It made me feel a little sad that such an older sister made this a secret from her.

“I’m sorry, sister.”

“Hmmm, it’s a public place now, sir.”

When Shin Ae-ra pretended to be serious, Lee Si-woo stared blankly at him.

Then, the two burst into laughter at the same time as if they had squeezed it.

“Isn’t the hard way of speaking bad?”

“yes. For some reason, it doesn’t suit my sister to talk like that.”

Siwoo Lee, who had always been kind to any customer, was only comfortable with her.

Also to the president of Gangdong Steelworks.

Won Jae-joon was looking at him happily.

“By the way, did I? If I give up the redevelopment project, better opportunities will come.”

“I didn’t know that was what it meant.”

Shin Ae-ra was careful to keep her words.

What he said to Kang Eung-ryong means sincerity.

‘I protect my man.’

Of course, it’s not yet a relationship worthy of being called ‘my man’, but Shin Ae-ra didn’t care.

She wanted to play a part in Lee Si-woo’s dream as well.

“Would you like to have a drink together on a nice day like today?”

“Haha, good. Vice President, I am leaving work early today.”

Lee Si-woo said to Moon Jae-shin, who was standing next to him because of the loud noise.

Moon Jae-shin did not understand this situation now.

So I blankly looked at Shin Ae-ra.

But for a moment, Moon Jae-shin nodded his head.

“All right.”

“Oh, and hello. This is Shin Ae-ra, the new president of Gangdong Works.”

“Yes?”

I just thought there would be something happy, but I hope she is the new president of Gangdong Steelworks.

Shin Ae-ra approached Moon Jae-shin, who was making a confused expression, and bowed her head.

“I wish you all the best in the future, Vice President.”

Gangdong Works was an important customer for Nuri.

Moon Jae-shin, who was bewildered at the thought that the boss of such a place was the woman in front of him, politely held hands and bowed his head.

“ah… yes! It’s an honor, boss.”

5pm.

Si-woo Lee, who left work an hour earlier than usual, went out with Ae-ra Shin.

Won Jae-jun smiled faintly as he looked at the two people walking side by side.

And Moon Jae-shin, who was watching their backs next to him, said:

“Director Won, I think I need to explain what happened now.”

“Think about it. The boss has returned to where he should have been.”

“No matter how much I think about it, I don’t understand. And it seems that the relationship between the CEO and the president is not very serious… As a deputy representative of the company, shouldn’t you be able to figure it out?”

* * *

Si-woo Lee took Shin Ae-ra in the seat next to him and headed somewhere.

“Where are you going?”

“Shall we have a drink? On a nice day like today, you should drink in an atmospheric place. is not it?”

“But it is.”

“why? Are you afraid I might kidnap your sister?”

“Are you going to kidnap me?”

Shin Ae-ra sat in the passenger seat and stared blankly at Lee Si-woo, who was driving with her chin on her hand.

Ishiu shook his head.

“Uh-huh, how did you hold up because you wanted to joke around?”

“well.”

“Anyway. Anyway, the place I’m going now is nice and quiet. You can’t look at other people. Of course the food is delicious.”

The place where Siwoo Lee arrived with her was a shabby sushi restaurant near the head office.

It’s been so long I don’t know how long it’s been coming.

When Si-woo Lee entered, the owner of the sushi restaurant was startled.

“Siouya!”

“Boss, how have you been? It’s been half a year?”

“Ugh, how are you? Because I spent my time thinking that ignorance was good news. Often the manager came to tell me the news. Busy?”

Shin Ae-ra smiled at the appearance of the president and his wife welcoming Lee Si-woo.

“Yeah, I was crazy. I’m sorry I can’t come often.”

“If you are busy, there is nothing you can do. Anyway, I saw a magpie in my dream today, and I wondered if a nice person would come to see me. Goodbye, good bye.”

At that time, the boss’s gaze turned to Shin Ae-ra.

The boss tilted his head as it was the first female customer brought by Siwoo Lee.

“girl friend?”

Bewildered, Si-woo Lee couldn’t answer and hesitated.

I thought maybe my feet were numb.

Shin Ae-ra, who looked at Lee Si-woo quietly, smiled and answered instead.

“We are not dating yet.”

“Oh, you are. I also said that Siwoo is finally out of his motherhood solo. ha ha ha!”

Siwoo Lee pouted his lips, saying that he was bringing up useless stories for nothing.

“Hmmm, anyway, boss, give me the most expensive one here.”

“Five! I brought in new red sea bream and black sea bream, would you like to serve them with these?”

The boss felt very good.

The words I said to Siwoo earlier were not just words.

I really saw a magpie in my dream.

So he went to the seafood wholesale market early this morning to buy expensive fish.

It was really unusual behavior.

Since the sushi restaurant is a remote place, it was difficult to deal with expensive ones.

“uh? Boss, what’s going on?”

“I did. I saw a magpie in my dream. Heh, who else but you is a welcome guest to come here?”

To the employees of Nuri, who come every time to increase sales, and to Si-woo Lee, who never forgets to visit, the president wanted to one day serve the right fish.

Then I had a dream like this.

In a way, this behavior was normal.

“please. Today is a happy day.”

Si-woo Lee brought a drink and a glass of wine and put it in front of Shin Ae-ra.

“Ho-ho, if you’re not dating yet, are you saying that later?”

The boss went into the kitchen, and his wife asked me and Shin Ae-ra.

The face of Si-woo Lee, who was listening to him from the side, opened up, and the president’s wife laughed when she saw it.

“I saw you swooping. From a business point of view, it’s really good, but I think it’s lousy for anything else.”

“How can you be arrogant? Our CEO, Siwoo, has been very blessed. I’m interested in a girl like this.”

“Did you hear me, Shiu?”

“Look, pretend you didn’t hear. Ugh, I should be joking around like this. I’ve never seen him fall in love. Even if Siu is a little frustrated, Ms., please understand. Still, he’s a good guy.”

“Siwoo is nice. Seeing that, I think Siwoo and I are very close… … .”

“Ho-ho, I’ve seen Si-woo since he was a child.”

Two women start chatting.

When will it end, Si-Woo Lee put on a painful expression.

Slowly, at this point, the boss came out of the kitchen thinking he had to take his side.

“Stop chattering and come in.”

“Anyway, the nagging… Then enjoy it. Siu, you eat a lot too. The spicy soup will be coming soon too. Would you like some food?”

In response to her question, Si-woo asked Shin Ae-ra.

“Would you like to eat, sister?”

“yes. I haven’t eaten dinner yet.”

“Oh, then, two bowls of rice, please.”

When the sashimi came out, the two poured soju into each other’s glasses.

“I am the granddaughter of Chairman Shin Won-sun. Why were you working as a civil servant?”

“Um, there’s at least one story we can’t tell each other, right?”

“It is not. Aren’t you going to tell me what’s going on?”

He pretended to be okay, but Lee Si-woo’s eyes were full of curiosity and sadness.

Shin Ae-ra, who poured soju into her mouth, said,

“It’s just a simple story. Would you like to hear it?”

“yes.”

Shin Ae-ra calmly brought up her story, and Lee Si-woo was silent for a while.

Her attitude was so easy-going that I didn’t know there would be such a heavy story.

“Are you okay now? Do you still resent Chairman Shin Won-sun?”

“slightly? It’s a lot more comfortable than before. If Grandpa leaves, I’m alone. So I decided to give in.”

“Good job.”

Even so, the core still remained.

“When I was just going to high school, my friends were very envious. I couldn’t be more envious of wearing expensive clothes and carrying cosmetics.”

“sister… … .”

“I may look like a glamorous second-generation chaebol, but I was also the daughter of a poor family. My father went down to the countryside every day to earn money for the hospital, and my mother is in the hospital. I was always alone.”

Shin Dong-hwan went here and there to earn money, but honestly, it didn’t mean much.

That’s probably because Lee Kang-yeon was stricken with cancer.

It was only slowing the disease.

“… Did Chairman Shin Won-sun know about that?”

“He said he didn’t know. I’ve been away from ties for a long time, so it doesn’t have to be that way.”

“still… Why don’t you try to find out how your child lives once in a while?”

“Seeing how happy he was, he said he didn’t worry about his father anymore. But one day, my mother contacted my grandfather. You were worried about me being left alone.”

The familiar sadness in Shin Ae-ra’s eyes as she brings out Lee Kang-yeon’s story is contained.

A sadness that Shi-woo Lee also felt.

It was the feeling of losing a loved one and longing for it.

Lee Kang-yeon was very worried about Shin Ae-ra, who would be left alone if she died.

The one and only precious daughter.

So, I contacted my father-in-law, who was so afraid.

Shin Won-sun, who was contacted by her, showed a desperate look that had never been seen before.

You can say what you’re talking about because he didn’t even attend Shin Dong-hwan’s funeral, but in fact, Shin Won-sun didn’t even know that he had passed away.

I just spent my time thinking that ignorance was good news.

That is how Shin Ae-ra and Shin Won-sun met face-to-face for the first time.

“It was disappointing at first. If you’re rich, why don’t you help? That’s why I hated my grandfather.”

“Just do it. I would have felt the same way.”

“However, after I passed the civil service and started working, a lot of different thoughts came to my mind. Oh, and it’s not your fault that you quit your job. I just thought I would regret it.”

“I thought well. You should be with Grandpa now.”

Lee Si-woo definitely felt that Shin Ae-ra was more mature than herself.

Now, the hope that remains in his heart.

‘I’ll see you more often.’

‘Just don’t be stubborn and I’ll be by your side.’

‘I’ll say I love you one more time.’

There is no longer a chance for Si-woo Lee to relieve his resentment, but Ae-ra Shin seizes the opportunity.

“Oh, and you should end your relationship with Governor Kang Eung-ryong.”

“Is that okay?”

“yes. Maybe you should. It won’t be of much help to you either. I’m probably going to drop the names that are in the unrelated memorabilia cleanup business. Are you still going to keep the business?”

“I have to. It didn’t start because of the governor in the first place. No matter what happens, this business will continue.”

I promised myself that I would do it until the end, even if it was a loss.

It was a pity that the support was cut off, but it didn’t matter.

So, the two talked and drank for over three hours.

Even though we’ve been together for a long time, why are we so sad when we parted?

With her regrets behind her, Shin Ae-ra, who broke up with Lee Si-woo, called Jang Han-seo over the phone.

Jang Han-seo, who arrived quickly even though it was late, opened the car door and bowed her head.

“I’m sorry for being late, Secretary Jang.”

“This is my job, lady.”

Shin Ae-ra in the car looked blankly at the window.

It was a dark landscape.

“Secretary Jang, aren’t you having a hard time?”

Jang Han-seo, who was concentrating on driving and looking ahead, shook her head.

“There is nothing physically difficult, so don’t be sorry, miss.”

“I’ve been wondering for a while, why are you serving as a secretary after being discharged from the Special Forces?”

Jang Han-seo was a member of the Special Forces Special Forces.

I heard that he was a talented person enough to be promoted to captain at an early age.

“As soon as I got to major, my leg was seriously injured while training. Then I did an honorary discharge.”

“It’s okay now?”

If it was enough to be discharged with honor, it was said that he was injured beyond recovery.

Shin Ae-ra was surprised at his words and asked.

“I am fine now. It was an old man who brought me back to the world after being discharged from the hospital. He paid all the medical bills and waited for me to recover.”

“How long has Secretary Jang been with Grandpa?”

“I have been taking care of the elderly for 5 years. “

“It’s been a long time.”

“I still have a long way to go before I can repay the kindness I received from the elderly.”

I have been in rehabilitation for three years.

With the support of Shin Won-sun, he managed to be discharged from the hospital.

For three long years, Shin Won-sun sponsored all hospital expenses and continued to provide support for his family.

“If your grandfather dies, will Secretary Jang remain in Gangdong?”

“I’m not staying in Gangdong, I’m staying by the lady’s side.”
