Then I Met You | Lee Jeno

19~ Deal Sealed

The day arrived soon where Yuri and Jeno had decided to meet up to sign the contract.

It was 10 a.m. Jeno was sitting in his office going through the contract that was prepared by his lawyer.

The contract came to existence when numerous terms and conditions were discussed by the two organizations.

Jeno wanted to go through the contract thoroughly. His secretary, Ms.Hwang, interrupted his examination.

"Mr.Lee, it's time for the contract signing. It's 10am right now and the Park's corporation is at 20 minutes away from us. The meeting is taking place at 10:30 am, this is the ideal time we should leave," Ms.Hwang concluded.

Jeno agreed with her. "Ok, I'll be out in 5," he said and saw the secretary leaving.

Walking around, he checked the things that needed to be taken with him to the meeting.

"Okay, contract check, pen check, diary check, ipad check, file check and done," he mumbled as he made a mental checklist of the things.

Fixing his attire, Jeno stepped out of his cabin. "Let's get going now Ms.Hwang."

The two of them left the place.

On the other hand, Yuri was very laid back in her office while Jisung was nervously fidgeting with his fingers.

"How come you are so laid back about all this?" Jisung questioned Yuri who was standing near the glass window facing the city.

"We are the CEO's of the second leading organization in South Korea Jwi. We have to stay composed. Being nervous can land us in immense trouble. Can't afford that now, can we?" Yuri retorted.

The words spoken by her slowly started sinking in Jisung. He understood the message behind her words.

"You are right. I get it," he said and walked near her work desk and drank a glass of water that was on it.

A small smile spread on her lips as she saw the younger trying to relax his nerves.

"Um, where is your secret chocolate stash?" Jisung asked timidly.

Chortling, she replied "Second drawer on the right."

"Thanks!" he said and searched for them as directed . He soon dove his hand in the box of chocolates and picked out 3 of them, quickly unwrapping and devouring them.

"Hey hey, slow down on it giant. Those are for emergencies!" Yuri said.

Jisung got away from the work desk and sat on the couch. "You wore an unusually casual formals today. Why may I ask?" he curiously asked.

Yuri's eyebrows furrowed as she looked down at her outfit. She had don a black turtle neck paired with grey wide legged pants and accessorized it with minimal gold jewelry and black Louboutins. Her whole look gave out a casual yet professional vibe.

"Hmm, I just felt like it," she said and shrugged. "You look surprisingly tall in it," Jisung commented. She nodded her head.

Mr.Kim entered the room, "Ms.Yuri, people from The Lee Corporation are here," he informed their arrival.

"Okay, take them to the conference room, me and Jisung will get there too," she instructed.

As soon as Yuri turned around she saw Jisung with his hair messed up. Heaving a sigh, she strutted towards him who was biting his lips out of nervousness.

Her fingers raked through Jisung's messy hair trying to spruce them up. "Stop doing that. I'm going to be with you. There's no need to be nervous," Yuri said in a soft voice comforting him.
