[178] Spring has arrived, but 2
Halo effect Charisma Awe Respect Maybe primordial envy for the rich…?
I don’t know exactly what that entity is.
However, every person who makes eye contact with the grandfather who walks into the auditorium, bows his head and greets without hesitation.
Of course, my parents, older brother and aunt followed in my grandfather’s footsteps. It was evident that the father was slightly frowning and the mother was perplexed and at a loss for what to do.
My aunt was enjoying the gaze quite naturally, showing off an expensive fur cord draped over her body.
“Minyoung-ah.”
“huh?”
“Run away.”
“what?”
It’s too late.
My grandfather, who discovered Seo Min-yeong and me, showed agility that was inappropriate for his age and approached me before I knew it.
“Hey. If you see Grandpa, you’ll come running quickly. What are you doing?”
He shouted at me, but his gaze was already on Seo Min-young.
He glanced at her with eyes like eagles trying to snatch a mouse, and a soft voice came out.
“You look pretty. It is different from my father. Your mother must be beautiful.”
“yes?”
Nervous, Seo Min-yeong completely forgot that she had to say hello first and had to think about what her grandfather meant.
“no. What is your dearest name?”
“Ah, this is Seo Min-young. Greetings are late.”
It’s kind of weird. Did you know?
“grandfather. Do you know Minyoung’s parents? Did you know from the beginning?”
“Did you think I didn’t know what you guys were doing? Even your lunch menu is clear, you bastard.”
Something is strange. It means that he followed me and investigated, but that can’t be the case… How on earth did he know?
I wanted to ask more, but I couldn’t because of the congratulatory messages from the families surrounding us.
“Congratulations on graduating. Studying took a back seat, but he manages to do it.”
When my father pats me on the shoulder and smiles happily, my aunt snaps.
“What kind of school did you manage to behave yourself in?”
“Tsk! Won’t you be careful with that younger club?”
At the words of the grandfather, the aunt closed her mouth, and her attention was soon focused on Seo Min-young.
“Is Dojun your girlfriend?”
“Ah yes. For now, that’s it. I am Seo Min-young.”
She bowed her head to her aunt and other family members.
“For now, what else?”
I thought that if I left it alone, it would only lead to a barrage of questions.
“This is my girlfriend Seo Min-young. I passed my class last year in high school and am currently training at the Judicial Research and Training Institute. I have to go back after the graduation ceremony.”
“Ohh! That’s great. You passed while you were in school. Congrats on the sashi pass as well.”
The family was surprised to see her and all congratulated her.
“hello? President.”
At this time, a middle-aged man sneaked up to Seo Min-young and bowed his head to his grandfather.
“Judge Igor Seo. It’s been a long time. Didn’t the Chunbujang come? How can you not see?”
“yes. I couldn’t walk because I had trouble moving. If I had known that the president was coming, I would have forced myself to come out, but it’s a pity.”
what? Were you familiar with each other?
Well, since it’s a family of about a dozen lawyers, they might have exchanged greetings.
“I don’t know if you know it, but Judge Seo’s father was the Chief Justice.”
A low exclamation escaped everyone as they listened to Grandpa’s explanation.
“That nobleman hit our Sunyang Group with a fine of 20 billion won. I met him in person and treated him to beef soup and asked him to watch it, but he said it wasn’t cheap. haha.”
“Chairman of the meeting…….”
Seo Min-yeong smiled and said as Judge Seo blushed and stuttered.
“President, people must misunderstand. Buying public officials is a crime.”
“buy? You don’t know your grandfather very well yet.”
“yes?”
“The day after I ate boshintang, he ordered someone to bring me an envelope with 14,000 won in it. I didn’t say anything, but do you know how angry I am?”
“Why is Grandpa angry? That is natural.”
I sneaked in. There are not just a couple of ears around you. I wanted to finish this story as quickly as possible. The gaze of everyone in the auditorium is also burdensome.
“The boshintang special is 17,000 won. I put 3,000 won less. At that time, I usually said that the chief justice had a special privilege.”
Even the jokes are very creepy.
Fortunately, the story of the attempt to bribe the Supreme Court justice ended here because of the president who ran out of breath.
“President. I thought you were going to stop by the president’s office, but you came right here.”
“I came to see my grandson wearing a graduation cap, not to see the face of the president.”
“You are still there. haha. Anyway, thank you late.”
“greeting? what greetings?”
“It’s about building a dormitory. I was also reported a little while ago.”
I know you donated quite a bit of scholarship money when I entered school, but even building a dormitory? This is the reason why the president’s mouth was torn apart.
“Think of it as the price of safely graduating an idiot who hasn’t attended school properly for four years. I didn’t mean to say hello.”
Grandpa glared at me and grinned.
“Actually, I don’t do that with my own money. I don’t know if you know it, but it’s donated by Daeah Construction. Give CEO Oh Se-hyun a call later.”
“Oh is that so?”
If it’s Daeah Construction, isn’t it my money? When I opened my mouth in a panic, my grandfather whispered in my ear.
“It is also a business to be condescending with other people’s money. Be well informed.”
Grandpa held out his hand to the president.
“I’ll just go. Thank you for your hard work.”
“Why are you leaving already? You have to go see the graduation ceremony.”
“no. I saw my grandson wearing a graduation cap, so that’s okay. Wouldn’t there be more fuss if I were there? look at that The flies have already begun to attract them.”
Sure enough, reporters had already started camping at the entrance of the auditorium, and those who wanted to impress the chairman of the Sunyang Group tried their best to break through the sanctions of the bodyguards.
As he is reclusive and rarely leaves the house, this opportunity will never come again for reporters.
Since the grandson is a graduate, he must have thought that he would show up.
“You see me.”
Grandpa took a step and said.
“That’s really a big deal. He’s a good kid.”
“Who? Minyoung?”
“okay. How difficult it is to meet a child who doesn’t waver in front of me. She resembles my grandfather a lot. Don’t cut off the relationship and see you. It will help you.”
“grandfather. Don’t we need judges who are a bit sleazy rather than tough judges? Hehe.”
“Yeah, you bastard. Since ancient times, the insider must have a strong will. That way, even when things get difficult, the family is quiet.”
Can I get married and start a family?
Whoever becomes my wife will unintentionally get involved in a tough fight. Wouldn’t it be necessary to drag it into the fight knowingly?
“And what are you going to do after graduation? Are you having a drink with your friends?”
“no. I need to take some pictures and go straight to work. There are personnel changes and there are many things that have been done.”
“Greetings? Did you mean slapping all of my bastards’ necks?”
I thought he was scolding me for dismissing the three presidents without saying anything in advance, but looking at his expression, it wasn’t. Aren’t you still smiling?
“sorry. I should have told you in advance…”
“No. Those who don’t seem like you should be cut out quickly. Good job.”
My grandfather stopped walking and stroked my back.
“It is good not to get involved too deeply in personnel affairs, but it is also dangerous to entrust everything to Marm. Salary workers have their own networks. It’s dangerous for that network to become solid.”
I’m talking about Vice President Jang Do-hyung. He must be concerned about relying on Jang Do-hyung the way I leaned on Oh Se-hyun.
“I will be careful. And I won’t forget to apply the brakes sometimes.”
“okay. Stop nagging.”
“I’ll see you after finishing my busy work.”
“You bastard is always busy. When are you waiting for it to end? Make time and come.”
“Hehe. yes. I’ll see you right after the graduation ceremony.”
Grandpa nodded and started walking again.
Bodyguards rushed out of the auditorium and began blocking the reporters.
It’s embarrassing to see that.
My head was pounding when I thought of the reporters who would surround my family after the graduation ceremony.
* * *
“This is a present for my grandfather.”
“Isn’t that your diploma?”
“yes.”
“done. What’s the point of that diploma?”
Contrary to my expectations, my grandfather showed a cold reaction and was not interested. There is a huge difference from what he showed when he entered Seoul National University’s law school.
“Hey. What kind of place is Seoul National University Law School?”
“yes?”
“Entering is picking stars from the sky, but isn’t it easy to graduate? How many of your classmates didn’t get a diploma?”
There are a few who dropped out, but no one was expelled because they could not keep up with their studies.
“This is what is really worth it.”
Grandpa pulled out a small picture frame from a drawer.
“that…?”
“Yes, it is your acceptance letter. This is worth thousands of thousands of times more than the diploma from the university where all dogs and cows graduate. I have enough of this.”
Putting the acceptance letter back into the drawer, the grandfather smiled.
“You have already given me enough gifts. The only gift left is to increase the number of companies with the Sunyang signboard. Did you understand?”
“yes. I will double or triple it.”
“Please make sure to see it before I die.”
It is possible even right now. It is not difficult to change the signboard of HW Group to Sunyang.
Maybe that’s what my grandfather wanted too.
“yes. I promise you. You will see it clearly.”
“It’s good that you understand the language well, hee hee.”
also.
That’s it.
My grandfather gave me something, so I must keep my promise. In order to do that, you need to prepare slowly from now on.
“Then is it my chalian now?”
“What are you talking about?”
“It’s your graduation present. Now it seems that the time has come for you to need someone too.”
Grandpa picked up the receiver.
“come in.”
As if he had been waiting outside, as soon as he put the receiver down, a man in his forties opened the door and came in.
As soon as I saw it, I knew who it was.
“Greetings. This is Woo Byung-jun, managing director.”
I got up and bowed my head towards him.
“hello? This is Jin Do-jun.”
“nice to see you. This is Woo Byung-jun.”
A dry tone, an expressionless face. It was clear that it was Sunyang Security.
After accepting the business card he held out, the grandfather said.
“Save Director Woo’s number in your speed dial.”
“Ah yes.”
Woo Byung-jun, managing director, looked at me for a moment as I saved the phone number, then opened his mouth in a businesslike tone.
“For convenience, I will call you the manager. Are you okay?”
“Ah yes.”
“From now on, the chief’s car will be driven by our staff. Already waiting outside. And the security team is four people. When you are at Miracle Office in Yeouido, the main building of the Sunyang Group, we will always wait at the entrance of the building and closely guard you until you return home. It won’t bother you because you move in a separate car.”
Woo Byeong-joon, who finished his speech quickly, bowed his head toward his grandfather.
“I’ll just leave.”
“okay. You will suffer a little in the future.”
“you’re welcome. I just do what I have to do.”
After speaking dryly, he left the study.
“Do you know who it is?”
“yes. Aren’t you from Sunyang Security?”
“right. We have assembled a team to work for you in the future. Woo will be in charge and it will consist of about 4 to 50 people.”
You don’t need 450 people to do security. Even if you work in shifts, 10 people are enough.
Only then did I know what their real mission was.
