"What's wrong? Why is your face pale? Did you sleep well last night?"

When Jeon Rosè rushed back to the company in the evening, she found Cho Nayun, who had requested leave in the morning, sitting with a frustrated facial expression next to her computer.

She looked low-spirited. Jeon Rosè walked towards her while looking at her anxiously.

She (Cho Nayun) sighed and raised her head to look at her(Jeon Rosè). "Sister Jeon, I have to move house and will be off for a week."

"Move? Didn't you live in the dorm?"

"Yes, I should have lived in a dormitory, but because my parents' house will be demolished soon, I had to live with them in a new house on the outskirts of the city. If I stayed with them, I would have to spend at least an hour and a half on the bus to get to work every day."

"The real estate company suddenly ordered our family to leave the house. Now my parents have to rent a house and pay half a year rent directly for it. My family is not rich, how can they get that much money?"

"The small amount of money they gave us was not enough to pay the rent a month! But the company said they gave according to requirements, but the problem was we didn't receive any profit!"

"So, this is about money?" Jeon Rosè smiled. "Even though I don't have a lot of money here, I might be able to lend you a half-year rent. I will go to the bank to withdraw some money tonight."

"No need, I barely managed to raise a lot of money and had to borrow some from the neighbors. The main problem now is that my parents didn't want to move out of the house." Cho Nayun sighed.

"The house belongs to our family and it's on the oldest street on the outskirts of Seoul near the city center. Most of the houses were abandoned during the late Dynasty, although they were very old but full of memories of our priceless generation, especially my parents and neighbors. Recently they did not have a good feeling. I know they loved the house, due to the demolition order, no one can do anything about it. "

"Late Dynasty? You mean the alley at Bedford Street?" Jeon Rosè's eyelids twitched.

"Yes, that's it."

"I once went through the place and saw that the house was indeed quite old, but did not affect the living conditions of the people. Furthermore, I saw that the architectural style was also unique and had a long history behind it."

Cho Nayun raised her hand to scratch her small head, then pushed the glasses on her face. She said in a depressed tone, "That's right, the house there is just as important as my parents' life. I heard that it was the Cho Family's ancestral house, which is why my parents took good care of it. I really don't understand why the developer wanted to demolish the house there."

Jeon Rosè raised her eyebrows. "In the eyes of those developers, the only thing that matters is a piece of land, but I think that the lane on Bedford Street can be a unique tourist destination for our city."

"Although our city isn't a tourist city, it is still one of the most prosperous places in the country. If the unique and real Dynasty street turned into a tourist attraction, it would be good for the city. Not only can it help the tourism industry, but it will also improve all aspects of the city. "

"Yeah, why didn't I think of that?" Nayun blinked. "Actually, it doesn't matter if we can't live in that house anymore. My parents just don't want it demolished."

Her face suddenly turned bitter. "But, what's the point for saying that? The developers had decided it. The higher-ups have already issued a notice that demolition work will begin next week."

Rosè frowned and sighed. She patted Nayun on the shoulder as if to calm her down. She was about to return to her desk when she (Nayun) called her again. "Right, Sister Jeon!"

Nayun stood up and hurried towards Rosè with both hands supporting her on the desk and a pair of big eyes shining under the glasses. "Aren't you Park Jimin's wife? What if you help me? As you said, it's good to turn that street into a beautiful place. Please don't let it get ruined. You just need to mention this to President Park! Can you do that? I heard from the developer that one of their investors is Park Group!"

Jeon Rosè's mouth twitched.

Blowing against the pillow? ¹

This girl really knew how to imagine.

She couldn't help but laugh. "How can it be as easy as you say?"

"But Park Group is the big boss for the land industry in Seoul. Although the problem is not entirely under the jurisdiction of investors, if he intervenes, no one dares to violate his orders!"

"Besides, Sister Jeon, you also say that if the street becomes a tourist attraction, it will be a good thing for H City. Tourism development will also be profitable. I was just thinking of asking for your help because of your words. Otherwise, I would be too embarrassed to bother you."

"What bother? The two of us are on such good terms. If you keep using such a tone, I will kick your ass." Jeon Rosè glared at her.

Cho Nayun immediately leaned back against her desk with a mischievous smile. "Sister Jeon, please. Please help me."

"I ..." Jeon Rosè paused.

She did want to help, but her husband had disappeared for two full months. Although she wanted to help her, the problem now was how can she find Park Jimin?!

Seeing Cho Nayun's anxiousness, Jeon Rosè couldn't bear to refuse. She nodded her head helplessly.

"Sister Jeon! You're the best!" Cho Nayun suddenly grabbed her face and kissed her.

Jeon Rosè immediately pushed her away and looked at her with disgust. " Cho Nayun! You little pervert!"

Cho Nayun playfully stuck out her tongue. She then took two vouchers from her bag and placed them on the table. "Sister Jeon, I have two vouchers here. As a token of gratitude, I will treat you a meal at the newly opened Italian restaurant on Beidou Avenue!"

Jeon Rosè looked at the coupon that was costing no less than a thousand yuan. "You bastard, you're not even sincere treating me to dinner ~"

Jeon Rosè blinked her eyes. "Cho Family lacks money! Shouldn't you give me a face? Do you want to accompany me or not?"

"Since it's free, there's no reason for me to turn it down!" Jeon Rosè grinned as she pushed her (Cho Nayun) with her hand. "Go! Get back to work. Stop bothering me."

Cho Nayun laughed as she returned the voucher to her pocket. She sat back at her desk.

Jeon Rosè was anxious.

She did not know how to tell this issue to Park Jimin.
