The Boss and I | Hopekook ( Junghope)

14

Huh! Of course Big Boss cannot let a good servant like him go.

In the President's office, Hoseok picks out vegetables while cursing himself out of habit, at the same time despising himself. He had felt sad at the thought of not coming here anymore. Big Boss's mood does not seem to be good today, the atmosphere is a bit heavy.

Hoseok eats a few bites, cannot help but ask Jungkook : "President, is Miss Nayeon all right?"

Jungkook is slightly surprised: "You know already?"

He is not pleased. That employee has loose lips, it only happened yesterday, even Hoseok knows. Jeon Nayeon's hemorrhaging is not state secret. But Jungkook does not like wild rumors in the company.

Jungkook says: "She's fine."

"Oh, that's good." Hoseok is quiet for a while, then asks: "President, how will you and Miss Nayeon reward Mr.Choi?" (Yeonjun)

"Why do you ask this?" Jungkook's eyes light up.

"Uh, that ......"

Oh, why did he ask that? Could it be that he wants to know if another person will get to eat lunch with him?

Hoseok's hesitancy inadvertently pleases Jungkook, he does not want to embarrass him: "With a check."

Check?! 

Hoseok is surprised, asks automatically: "Why didn't you give me a check?"

Jungkook suddenly feels angry, answers coldly: "Jung Hoseok, are you a dummie? You don't know how to use a long fishing line to bait a big fish?"

How can a check be more valuable than him? Hoseok looks at Jungkook in confusion, appearing to understand yet not really understanding, he is slow as he eats vegetables, his expression completely shocked. Suddenly, his face is extorted with pain.

Jungkook, although still annoyed, asks: "What's wrong?"

Hoseok replies with much difficulty: "...... big ...... fish ...... bone ...... stuck ......"

The company's doctor called up by Jungkook. He tries not to laugh as the doctor removes the fish bone. Then Hoseok and the innocent doctor are thrown out of the office by Jungkook.

Hoseok frowns. What Big Boss had said 'throw a long fishing line to bait a big fish' constantly swirls in his head, but thinking of fish reminds him of the stuck fishbone. So ......Let's not think about it anymore.

Big Boss is weird like that, always saying strange things is normal for him, it is foolish to mull over what Big boss says. 

With that decision, Hoseok calmly deletes what Big Boss had said from his mind, then reboots, returning to normal clueless Jung Hoseok without any worries .But a tiny, strange suspicion lingers -_-

Today is Friday, close to the time to go home, the employees inevitably become impatient. The old manager had gone to another department. Colleague 'A' leaves her desk and goes to stand near Hoseok to chat.

"Hoseok, what do you plan to wear tomorrow?"

Hoseok's head is still full of accounting numbers, unable to react, he looks up at the speaker.

"Tomorrow night is the New Year's party, working overtime so much is turning you into a blockhead."

Hoseok remembers now, the company holds an annual party on New Year's Day, a notice had been issued last week. Thinking of the party, Hoseok is excited, it is hard not to drool.

According to senior colleagues, Jungkook's annual party is extravagant, the lavish dinner not only takes place at a five-star hotel, there is also a drawing of huge prizes. Last year, the grand prize had been a car, the smallest prize had been a digital camera.
