Moonbyul looked down at Solar's fair hands. After a while, he responded, "It'll be at the end of the month. When Grandfather talked about this, he said that there's a good date at the end of June, so it'll be great if we make it then. I'll call you when I reach there."
"Okay, then you be careful, and uhh, take care of yourself." Solar pulled her hand away and looked up slowly at him.
Moonbyul nodded as he took a careful look at her. Then, he could not help but walk up by half a step and pull her into his embrace.
Despite being stunned, Solar did not reject him. Instead, she lifted her hands slightly and hung them uncertainly in the air for a while before gently hugging him back.
"Help me explain to Mother's end that I'll be a little busy in the upcoming weeks. When I get back and visit to send the betrothal gifts, I'll make it up to your parents. I can't delay the official business. I'll get going now." Moonbyul patted her narrow back, and slowly let go of her.
Solar smiled and nodded before saying. "Okay, go then. Otherwise, you're not going to make it for your flight."
With a smile, Moonbyul turned around to get in the car. When he started the car, he could not help but turn to take another look at her standing in the same spot to silently see him off.
Only when the car vanished at the end of the road and could no longer be seen did she turn around to leave.
...
The weather was gradually becoming hot and stuffy, especially since they entered June. The entire city Z practically became a gigantic steamer basket. Underneath the scorching sun, the towering commerce building was refracting a dazzling radiance.
In the upper management meeting room of Kim Group Corporation, all of Kim Group's top management were gathered for an important meeting.
The person who sat at the main seat was Kim Group's person in power, Kim Joon, while the seats beside him were occupied by Kim Group's shareholders and Vice Presidents. All the seats were filled at that moment with Miyeon seated beside Kim Joon.
This was a very important upper management meeting for Kim Group to discuss the company's future five-year plans, so the entire company's upper management was called to take part in it. Even Krystal was there.
Even though Jennie had become an abandoned pawn, based on her own hard work, Yueying was now running smoothly. With her few movies that were released and had done excellently at the box office, she managed to make a comeback, so in Kim Group, she more or less had a firm standing and influence. Besides that, another one of Kim Group's shareholders, Vice President Yue Hai, was her uncle!
At the moment, inside the wide and comfortable meeting room, it was very quiet. The people who were joining the meeting had almost all arrived, and it was less than three minutes to the start of the meeting. Kim Joon and Miyeon were both flipping through the materials in hand. Beside Miyeon were two other men from the Hui Cho Corporation in black suits delegated to understand the situation.
Kim Joon chatted for a bit with Miyeon and subconsciously looked towards her wrist. He realized that it was almost time, then he set aside the document and looked up, yet when he looked at an empty seat not too far away from him on the left, his expression darkened.
Beside him, the head secretary who was skilled at observing body language immediately noticed that Kim Joon did not look very pleased. He quickly bent down and whispered into Kim Joon's ear, "CEO Kim, that's Master Kim's seat. When I came over, I already saw him in his office. He should be rushing over right now."
Kim Joon's face clouded over even more as a grim coldness flashed in his eyes. He was about to show his power off when there was the sound of footsteps from outside.
Bam!
The tightly shut meeting room door was pushed open. Everyone looked over together, and saw a dark blue figure entering their sight!
Dressed in a dark blue tailored tuxedo, his handsome face had a devilishly charming smile while his hands were leisurely stuck in his pockets. He had a document gripped with his underarm, and there was evil energy radiating all over him. Who else could it be if not Second Master Kim?
Behind him was Jimin who stopped behind Jisoo at the moment, feeling extremely stressed.
What a hooligan!
Kim Joon stared at Jisoo for quite a while as his expression sunk further, yet Jisoo only threw him a glance of disdain before walking towards his seat unhurriedly.
Kim Joon did not know how to vent his stomach of fury, so in the end, he could not help but growl at Jisoo, "How can you be late at such a time? What attitude is this?"
Jisoo did not seem anxious at all. He sat down on his seat calmly and lifted a hand to take a look at the time. Then, he smiled insincerely at Kim Joon. "It's 8.59 a.m. right now. I've just recalibrated my time, so I'm not late. I just don't understand why you look like you wished I was late, CEO Kim."
With a few sentences, he practically made it embarrassing for Kim Joon, so Miyeon had to quickly smooth things over. "Alright, alright now, Jisoo, Uncle Kim was just asking. He didn't intend to target you. It's almost time. Let's start the meeting now!"
Miyeon helped Kim Joon with a way out, and naturally, he went along with it, but his cold and stern gaze still glared at Jisoo. Meanwhile, Jisoo was quite happy and relaxed without a care at all. He just pretended like he had heard and seen nothing.
Just as Lisa expected, he was right on point!
It was indeed about South River Project No. 2.
This project was a very important one for Kim Group to make the switch in industries. Of course, such an important project could not be left for Jisoo to manage, so Jisoo had no way of approaching the entire process. It was only today that he finally roughly found out a bit more about the whole situation.
The tender meeting had just ended. Without a doubt, Kim Group Corporation had won the bid this time, so when the news came back, the entire corporation was excited. The meeting today had South River Project No. 2 as the main discussion topic.
However, these things had nothing much to do with Jisoo because right now, apart from collaborating with Glory World on South River Project No. 1 and being able to have some say about it, he probably did not have much authority to speak about other things.
Since that was the case, he was too lazy to listen. Once Kim Joon began discussing with everyone else, he propped his head up with one hand and began to fall asleep.
Last night, he had been playing World of Warcraft with a certain master called 'Ta Xue Liu Yun' till midnight before he slept. This morning, he had to wake up so early, hence he was indeed quite sleepy.
