The Legend of Return
Chapter 294. Steven (1)
“Chit….. What is it? After setting the mood…”
Im Yoona’s lips pouted out.
Jang Tae-san suddenly changed his tone.
Seeing her eyes burning as if they were going to eat her, Im Yoona was terrified.
The self-confidence with which he had bravely tried to seduce him at first had already disappeared.
Like a rabbit in front of the Great Lakes, it was difficult to breathe.
Jang Tae-san drank several bowls (?) of wine with a sigh.
Suddenly, he untied his shirt and started drawing half-naked.
Im Yoon-ah couldn’t properly talk to Jang Tae-san, who had changed like a different person.
A searing energy rose like smoke all over his body.
The painting work started like that.
“Really… who can believe it. That these paintings were all drawn overnight…”
Yoona shook her head as she looked at the various ink paintings spread on the floor.
At a glance, they were great masterpieces.
It seemed that people who did not know how to appreciate oriental paintings at all would be deeply moved.
The cat aiming at the dove on the tree was full of liveliness, as if it would jump up and swing its claws at any moment.
He was full of youthful energy and stretched out.
Im Yoona’s gaze moved to another plum blossom painting.
Plum blossoms stretched out strangely over the thick branches, and the branches bent as if they were about to break as the snow piled up.
Even in the midst of it, you can feel the rough and strong vitality.
The hardness of plum blossoms, which are not easily broken, has been conveyed to the heart through the eyes.
“Haa…”
Im Yoona let out a long sigh.
Just looking at the painting made me feel like I was being sucked into the canvas.
Several hours have already passed since the man left.
I couldn’t stand still after that.
Last night, the man left a whopping ten pictures.
“This work is in the early years….. Maehwado is in the middle period… and the last freshness is in the late period, right?”
Early works were clearly influenced by Chinese painting style.
Jang Seung-eop, a genius Oh-won, said he could draw a picture he had seen once.
He learned painting over his shoulder at the interpreter’s house without a teacher.
The smell of China was strongly felt in every corner of his free-spirited painting style.
However, in the freshness of the work of the late period beyond the middle period, a level of deduction that no one could imitate could be seen.
Even in the midst of difficulty, Jang Seung-eop’s unique strong painting style was revealed.
The scene in which a stylish Korean hermit wearing a ramie robe and flying white beard rides a dragon and flies above the clouds was unconventional.
It was completely differentiated from the freshness of the Taoist Chinese painting style.
“The style of painting has changed….. I got it before I died…”
Yoona Lim, who collected information about Chihwaseon, found that the painting style of Jang Seung-eop, drawn by men, was similar from era to era.
It was as if the real Oh-won Jang Seung-up had appeared and left.
At this level, appraisers will nod their heads saying that it is genuine.
“however! Why… are you keeping me away! At first he acted like he wasn’t going to sleep! Am I not attractive? Isn’t it because you have small breasts?”
Im Yoon-a put herself in front of a mirror and fell into self-criticism.
A man who drank wine as a treat.
I drank all 20 bottles of wine in the house by myself.
Of course, Yoona also drank a few drinks, but the men all ate it with one shot.
Then, at some point, Im Yoona fell asleep.
I ate a lot of dinner in a tired state, and I used up a lot of planting under the man’s spirit.
Unknowingly, he fell into a deep depression.
It was early in the morning when I opened my eyes.
At that time….. Yoona saw it clearly.
The warm gaze of a man looking at himself.
A man’s hand stroked her hair.
Looking at the man’s smile that felt like a dream, Im Yoona fell back to sleep in a good mood.
And when I opened my eyes, the man was gone.
He left behind a picture of a beautiful woman.
The beauty in the canvas with her hair neatly braided in a colorful silk dress was Im Yoon-ah herself.
A beautiful woman waiting for someone with a candle lit on a rainy night with the window open.
“Chii….. She’s a really cool flirt…..”
A poem was written on the island of beauty.
Yaugi North.
Posting a letter to the north in the night rain.
“I hate to see you at the military gate (君門歸期未有期)….. You asked for the day you would return, but you couldn’t find the day.”
Im Yoona smiled and savored the poem.
They were not difficult Chinese characters.
In order to study oriental art history, I had to study Chinese characters at the same time.
“Pasan Yauchangqiuji (巴山夜雨漲秋池)…..Autumn ponds swell in the night rain of Pasan.”
Looking at the painting, Yoona Lim’s gaze was warm.
I felt the cheerfulness of the man in the poem.
“Hadanggongjeonseochangchok (何當共剪西窗燭)… Someday, together, we’ll light the candles in the west window… It’s really bad… Who was it for!”
Contrary to her words, Im Yoona’s smile spreads thickly around her lips.
“Gakhwa Bankruptcy Yaushi (却話巴山夜雨時)…… You want to talk about bankruptcy Bambi?”
poetry is over
Im Yoona stopped and looked at herself and the poem in the painting of a beautiful woman.
A deep emotion came over me.
Outside the window, it was still raining since late last night.
It was a poem full of longing that we couldn’t be together, but we promised someday and waited for the day we would meet.
The 21st century Chihwaseon, who came and left poems and paintings even in the midst of being busy with business.
He brought a notice and expressed his heart as it is.
“Even if I try to hate you… I can’t hate you… You’re such a wonderful playboy… Haaaa.”
Taking a deep sigh, Im Yoon-ah shed clear tears from her overflowing emotion.
An uncontrollable longing came over me all at once.
It’s only been a while since we were together, but I missed it terribly.
“Finish the thesis first!”
Im Yoon-ah gave strength.
I wanted to cheer up even for my boyfriend who came to comfort me and offer a helping hand during difficult times.
“Mr. Taesan…..”
However, the bursting water of emotions wet Im Yoona like rain.

“What the hell are you doing! Watching this crap report in my precious time? Are you crazy? What the fuck!”
Swearing broke out in the office of the co-chief of Apple headquarters located in Cupertino.
The secretaries outside put on a calm expression.
It was the roar of a beast that erupted several times a day.
If you couldn’t stand it, you had to leave this wonderful place.
“All I want is a circle! Spending my money on the construction of this bizarre building without even a single thought? Are you crazy?!”
A fire order fell on the design team at Apple’s headquarters.
I’ve been rejected dozens of times so far.
“It’s not a fucking park, but if anyone sees it, come! Make a cool guy that will make you laugh out loud! I mean, do your best to get what’s in my head out with money!”
“Sorry. Stephen.”
“There is no craving in your design! reckless longing! Do you not understand the meaning of that word?”
The verbal violence was so intense that he could be sued for assault.
However, Apple chief designer Rayman, who is in charge of the design, kept his mouth shut.
It was a multi-billion dollar project.
Stephen Matthew’s obsession was terrifyingly tenacious.
He was called every few days and suffered verbal abuse under the guise of a meeting.
Steven tweaked the design until he was happy with it.
Instead, the pie to be returned in return was large.
A huge bonus will be given if you just cheer up the temper of Steven.
“Listen to Rayman. There is an incredibly nice park in the middle of the building~ Just imagine. A utopia-like garden nestled inside a round building. It should be unmatched by any garden ever created by humans.”
The tone of voice quickly changed.
Madness flashed in Stephen’s eyes as he explained.
It was Steven’s unique passion that appears when he aims for something.
A voice resounded in the office, so soft that I wondered if I had been swearing.
Stephen’s face lit up.
Although fighting the disease, his spirit never collapsed.
People say he’s eccentric, but Steven didn’t care.
There was not enough time just to bring out the things that came to mind.
“yes!”
Chief designer Rayman starts taking notes on the papers he is carrying.
This is how the new iFun was born.
“Walls must be curved on all sides at all costs. You shouldn’t take even one. Imagine a spaceship sailing through the vast universe. If you meet a right angle in a boring and boring space trip, you might be frustrated. But wouldn’t it be comforting to keep going around the circle? It’s endless, so it’s not boring! That’s it! All glass is also pulled out in a curve. I’ll give you more damn money!”
“I see.”
Stephen Matthew, who is kind and then suddenly curses.
Even Rayman, whom I had worked with for years, was confused at this point.
“I need to draw the design design again.”
“yes? All over again?”
“Wonju, please correct 1 mile. We will not forgive even a single error. And there shouldn’t be a single crevice or paintbrush mark left on this building. If you want to blaspheme the perfect, you better hit it right now!”
“I will do my best.”
“Be perfect, not the best. All I ask for is perfection! Perfect!”
Steven’s booming voice has gotten louder lately.
It was because the disease was deepening.
Following pancreatic cancer, his liver was also destroyed and he was scheduled to undergo a transplant.
“You have to take my permission to make a mock-up. Keep that in mind.”
“….All right.”
Designer Rayman felt sweat dripping down his back.
Every time I saw Steven, I felt nervous and shortened my lifespan.
It was Steven who was obsessed with design.
“All the furniture in the building should be made from maple trees cut down in January when the moisture and sugar content is low. That is why the unique hardness and strong vitality of maple trees can come out as they are.”
“Do you mean logging mountain in January?”
Maple trees cut on the coldest day were the most expensive.
“Grow trees.”
“yes?”
“I want them to be trees grown in Northern California. The garden should always be covered with dry leaves as well. That’s how it’s a real garden.”
Stephen’s eyes were following the fantasy.
Although living in a human body, Steven dreamed of heaven.
Orders continued as if tongues were bursting.
“I will take action.”
“Think of it as taking a walk in a national park. It should be a space where Apple employees can take a walk and rest and recharge when their creativity hits the bottom when they are frustrated. Rayman… How good would it be? Yes?”
“I am happy just by imagining it.”
“Exactly! It’s my heart that I want everyone to be happy in this damn ecosystem. The construction or manufacturing process must be the same. It should be assembled in one simple, clear lego-like!”
Stephen’s enthusiasm never stopped.
A building in his imagination already drawn in his head.
There are already more than 100 designers related to architecture at Apple headquarters.
Stephen invested an astronomical amount of money.
He even threatened to move away if the Cupertino council did not approve the design.
No one could defy the Apple kingdom here.
“We grow our own trees. No matter how rich you are, old trees are not easy to find, right? How attractive is that in itself? A tree that has stood the test of hundreds of years to grow in our gardens… Just imagining it makes me happy.”
A childlike smile bloomed on Steven’s lips.
“The roof will be made of solar cells.”
“oh! Rayman. Of course it should. Rather than relying on dirty oil or the lunatics’ favorite nuclear power plants, let’s enjoy the blessings of the sun god to our heart’s content. Prepare with efficient guys.”
“I will polish the procurers.”
“Ramon… I think I will love you~.”
Steven’s fickle expressions of affection.
“A boss’s love is always a specification.”
Rayman wiped the sweat from his brow.
It was also part of my job to have to be called out from time to time and listen to Steven’s dream.
It was Steven’s madness that even Cook could not stop.
“Raman. great job. You will receive a bonus this month.”
“Bonus absolutely love it.”
“is it so. go out Time to meet the investors who have emerged riding the greedy bulls of Wall Street.”
Stephen made an appointment.
Investors who invested in Apple stock requested a visit while the economy was rapidly contracting.
I tried to refuse, but Cook stopped me.
“What’s wrong with these money buggers who eat up my precious time….. Go to hell with the bullshit board of directors!”
Steven is furious at the board of directors interfering with his grand plans.
Time was running out.
I can build an eternal empire, but I’m going to have a lot of money to pay investors.
“Stupid bastards… crazy about that illusory money…”
Steven shook his head and trimmed his hair.
As soon as I poured it out, my stomach was relieved.
“Why can’t you imagine? It’s so easy! Hehe.”
Steven who speaks for himself and praises himself.
[boss. Customers are waiting.]
A call came from the secretary’s office over the intercom.
“I ask you to come in.”
[Yes~.]
“I know how to kick you out right away if you talk nonsense.”
Steven poises with vigor.
The door swung open.
And a middle-aged white man and a young Asian man appear.
“Nice to meet you, Steven. It’s called Robert Ryan riding the bull of Wall Street. haha.”
The Wall Street investment god who didn’t budge even after hearing Steven’s shouts outside.
“Your nerves get sharper when you work~ Nice to meet you, Robert. My name is Stephen Matthew.”
The two men shook hands.
Both of them didn’t care even though they spat unpleasant words out of their mouths and heard them from outside.
“But what about this friend? Are you a secretary?”
Steven looked at the Asian with a sharp gaze.
“no. This friend…”
“My name is Daniel Chang. I am a Korean investor.”
“A Korean investor?”
Stephen frowns at once.
Recently, I heard that Ohjeong Electronics in Korea is focusing on a new Android mobile phone that will compete with iFun.
Steven did not have a good impression of Korea.
He was deeply rooted in the idea that he was a member of a stupid country that rejected his investment proposals in the past.
“Is there a problem? Are you going to catch me like your pyramid-like splendid tomb building problem?”
“What!!!”
