"Pre ...... President," Hoseok hastens to say hello.

Big Boss is leaning against the luxurious backseat with his eyes closed. He utters a faint grunt in acknowledgement and does not bother to open even one eye.

Senior Assistant Kim looks back and smiles: "Mr. Jung, get in quickly."

"Oh, all right."

Hoseok steps gingerly into the car. There is a fluffy white carpet. When it rains, would the carpet not get dirty from footprints? Fortunately, he is wearing his new shoes. If he wears his usual sneakers, there will be two big black footprints ......

Ah......

The car begins to move. Hands on knees, back straight, eyes straight ahead , Hoseok sits stiffly like an elementary school student next to the window.

Senior Assistant Kim is amused. Afraid that Hoseok is not comfortable so he looks at the gift in Hoseok's hands to find a conversation topic: "Mr. Jung has prepared a gift?"

"Yes."

"Very interesting."

"Really?" Hoseok is flattered. Suddenly feeling an affinity with Senior Assistant Kim, Hoseok's body unconsciously leans forward. "I also think these toy ducks are cute. They also sing and each one sings a different song."

Hoseok begins to show off his gift. Senior Assistant offers praises so Hoseok happily chats with him. Suddenly the President coldly chimes in ......

"Jeon Corp pays you a low salary?"

Hoseok turns to see Big Boss arrogantly looking at him.

"Not low ...... uh ...... very high ......" Hoseok discovers Boss Jeon's eyes fall on the gift. Does he think the gift is too cheap?

The hands holding the gift cannot help but tighten. Hoseok plucks up his courage to argue: "Pre ...... President, these toy ducks may look ordinary, but in fact ......"

These toy ducks can sing and swim. Most importantly, the toy ducks have brand name! Brand name, do you understand? Very expensive! Even more expensive than ducks that can be eaten!

"In fact what?" Big Boss squints his eyes, his tone sounding slightly unpleasant, his face plainly saying "object me and die."

Hoseok gulps: "In fact ...... these toy ducks are ordinary -_-"

The car accelerates forward in Hoseok's frustration. Nearing the club, Jungkook answers a call and after hanging up his phone, he gives instruction to his senior assistant.

"Take him upstairs when we get there, Nayeon wants to see him."

Nayeon?  Hoseok remembers, that is Big Boss's sister. Why does Miss Nayeon want to see him?

That is fortunate. Hoseok is an adult but this is his first time going to a banquet alone. Jungkook's judgment on the gift has crushed all of Hoseok's confidence. Hopefully, he can quietly hand over the gift during the meeting and not lose face in front of a large crowd -_-

The tall bodyguard who doubles as Jungkook's driver parks the car. Jungkook tells them to go ahead first. Senior Assistant Kim brings Hoseok to take an elevator to a suite upstairs.

Nayeon is petite and very pretty, sitting in the reception area chatting with a few people. When she sees Hoseok coming forward, she warmly reaches out for Hoseok's hands: "You're Mr. Jung Hoseok..Right?, thank you for your help. Otherwise, I would have died."

Hoseok is embarrassed and immediately blushes, shakes his head and says: "Oh no, I didn't do anything."

Nayeon smiles, pulls Hoseok down to sit and begins a conversation. Suddenly remembering something, she asks: "Mr. Jung, do you like the food?"

Hoseok is surprised for a moment.

Nayeon says: "I told the cook to make your lunch and my brother's lunch together, did you not eat the food?"

"I have, I have." Hoseok nods, suddenly realizing that it is Miss Jeon's order. Of course, Big Boss is arrogant, how can he think of giving a little employee lunch? If blood is needed, directly commanding Hoseok's presence sounds more like the Big boss.

"Do you like the food?" Nayeon asks again. "It is delicious, it is delicious." Hoseok nods. Everything except the pork liver was very delicious. "It's too much trouble for you."

"It's no trouble!" Nayeon smilingly says: "My brother is very picky about his food. Every day, our cook has to make lunch to bring to him so making another lunch for you is easy. I know people who work for Jeon corp are hardworking to the point that they eat simple dumplings for lunch. You lost a lot of blood so you need to eat well."

This time, Hoseok cannot help but feel a bit touched. This elite lady is very considerate.

Nayeon sees the gift in Hoseok's hands and says in surprise: "This gift is for the baby?"

"Yes." Hoseok hands over the gift. "These ducks can swim and sing."

Nayeon seems to like it. "I am afraid people would give money. That's meaningless, not putting in any effort. Did you know that at first when I asked my brother how to thank you, he said to write you a check but I think that's insulting ......"

Wah?! Hoseok stares blankly. A thought pops into his head .Elite lady, why did you not let Big Boss insult me! I want to be insulted ......
