Chapter 154: Chapter 154.
“Who is it?”
“Dr. Park.”
“What? This late at night? Why?”
“We were supposed to have dinner tonight, but he just canceled it.”
“Why do you have to have dinner with him?”
“Because he helped me a lot, and I’d like to appreciate him.”

“Don’t have dinner with him anymore. No, never meet him again.”
“You’re strange. Why are you so mean to Dr. Park?”
“I’m not being strange. Just don’t.”
“You don’t need to worry about it. I don’t think I can see Dr. Park often anyways. He said he’s going to be busy.”
“That’s great.”
“Stop being mean, please.”
“Why don’t we go out?”
“Where?”
“To have a date.”
“Date?”
“Do you mind?”
At that moment, the door was roughly opened, and Eunyoung and Ojae came into the office.
“Gyeonhui!”
“Sun!”
They came into the office while calling Gyeonhui and Sun’s name in a hurry.
“Oh my gosh! What’s going on?”
“Is it only the two of you?” Ojae asked.
“Sure, is there another person that should be here?”
Hearing Gyeonhui, Ojae and Eunyoung looked at each other.
“No… not really…”
Ojae and Eunyoung were outraged and didn’t know what to say.
“Alright. Why don’t we have dinner together? We’re all here.” Sun said.
“To… together? Sun… let’s not… do that…”
“Do you mind?” Sun asked Gyeonhui.
“That’s not what I mean. We should let these two have some time privately…”
“I like the idea,” Eunyoung said, cutting off Gyeonhui’s words. Gyeonhui glared at Eunyoung and soon moved his gaze to Ojae.
‘Say no. Never say yes!’
Gyeonhui sent a signal to Ojae with his eyes outrageously.
Ojae nodded at Gyeonhui as if he understood the signal.
Gyeonhui exhaled a sigh of relief.
“How about you, Mr. Kwon?” Sun asked.
“I like it if Eunyoung likes it.”
Hearing Ojae’s unexpected answer, Gyeonhui’s eyes grew big furiously.
Gyenhui glared at Ojae, but Ojae was only smiling at Eunyoung foolishly.
“Do you not want to go with us?” Sun asked.
“I like it. Let’s go. Go.”
Gyeonhui smiled outrageously and struggled to speak while biting his lower lip.
“Great. Why don’t we call Ari too since we’re all together!”
“Sounds great. Let’s go!”
Sun and Eunyoung were so excited, and they took the lead. Ojae was afraid of trouble later, so he quickly followed them.
“Hah…”
Gyeonhui was the only one left exhaling because his plans had been changed abruptly.

In the Consencio building Lobby.
Eunwoo watched the four of them moving away.
“Don’t we need to take the car?”
“Just leave it here. We’re going to have some drinks.”
“Really? Can I drink some too?” Ojae asked.
Eunwoo watched Gyeonhui and Ojae arguing, and Eunyoung and Sun who were laughing at them.
Compared to them, Eunwoo’s face looked so dark.
At that time, Eunwoo’s phone rang again.
Since he knew it was Chakyeong, he struggled to answer it.
“Are you avoiding my call?”
Eunwoo didn’t answer.
“Hello?”
Chaekyeong called him again since she heard nothing from him.
“What do you want?”
“Business.”
“I’m not interested in it. I have to go.”
Eunwoo tried to hang up on her.
At that moment, Chaekyeong’s voice rang over the phone again.
“You’ve heard about Sun and Gyeonhui, haven’t you?”
Hearing Chaekyeong, Eunwoo hesitated.
“As long as you don’t want to send her to Gyeonhui, I have an idea.”
Eunwoo was lost in thought for a moment with a serious face.
“I guess you’re interested now since you didn’t hang up on me.”
“… That’s not why.”
“I know how you play the game, and I know you’re not going to ask me anything. That means I have to show my card first. You still remember my suggestion from last time, right?”
Eunwoo recalled the conversation he had with Chaekyeong last time she visited him.
‘You know Gyeonhui is highly interested in merging the DNBM with his company. Actually, he’s desperate. You need to use that for yourself.’
Eunwoo had already known how much Gyeonhui wanted to merge with DNBM through the CTO’s emails.
However, it wasn’t how Eunwoo wanted to do this business, so he immediately rejected the business suggestion.
Chaekyeong was still suggesting it to Eunwoo.
“Are you still not interested in merging with Consencio?”
Eunwoo couldn’t answer this time.
“Just use it against Gyeonhui, and for yourself.”
“… I already told you that I’m not interested.”
Eunwoo struggled to answer. Chaekyeong was listening to him quietly for a while, then she finally started speaking.
“You’re going to lose everything. Again.”
Hearing her, Eunwoo clenched his teeth tightly.
“Meet me, anyway. I’ll send you the time and place soon.”
Chaekyeong hung up on him after she said only this.
Eunwoo watched Sun going away in the distance while holding his phone in his hand.
Her smile that looked so happy made Eunwoo hurt more.
Eunwoo looked down at the stone in his hand.
“… Go, you can.”
Eunwoo held the stone tightly.

The smoked spicy chicken foot restaurant.
These five people that hadn’t gathered together in one place in such a long time were just drinking water awkwardly.
Gyeonhui was quiet while crossing his arms, looking displeased to be here. Ojae and Ari were uncomfortable because of him.
Sun and Eunyoung said something once in a while, but the conversation would die out quickly.
“Why don’t we drink something?” Ojae started speaking to brighten up the mood.
“The dish for drinking hasn’t even come out yet,” Gyeonhui said with a grumpy face.
“You’re right.” Ojae quickly shut his mouth.
When Sun felt the awkward atmosphere again, she started whispering to Gyeonhui. “Can you please stop being grumpy?”
“What did I do wrong?” Gyeonhui asked her again, pretending he knew nothing.
“Don’t you see that people are not comfortable here?
“They look fine to me,” Gyeonhui said, pouting his lips out.
“What is it that you don’t like? Because we came here with people?”
“I wanted to be with you. Just the two of us.” Gyeonhui answered like he was waiting to be asked. Sun burst out a laugh at Gyeonhui, who was acting like a child.
“Okay. We can meet just the two of us on the weekend.”
“I’m busy on the weekend.”
“Then what do you want me to do?”
“Tomorrow.”
“Tomorrow? I’m busy tomorrow.”
“Never mind then.”
Sun glared at him, acting stubbornly. However, Gyeonhui only lifted his chin up and pretended that he knew nothing about anything.
At that time, the owner of the restaurant served the marinated chicken with the spicy sauce foot on the table.
“Here are the hot spicy chicken feet. The rice side dish is on me. Enjoy it.”
“Wow!”
Everyone was excited except Gyeonhui. When they saw Gyeonui’s grumpy face, they soon shut their mouths.
