115 – Public Enemy(1)
1.
Byul, who was standing in front of the door of the president’s office, in other words, in front of the elevator, greeted me with a smile as soon as he saw me.
Why is Byul here?
It was an unexpected appearance at such an unexpected timing that I was dumbfounded.
“No, how is this…”
“How is it? I came by car Take a picture.”
I didn’t ask for that.
The moment his head went blank because of the absurd answer, Byul moved his gaze from me to the boss.
“Hello, CEO Jeongbaro? It’s the first time I’ve seen you like this.”
“Ah, ah yes. Yes. He, no, Mr. Nova, I am very glad to see you. I always listen to stories from Sung-hyung. But how can I go here without contact…”
“I came by car.”
“Ah, ahahahaha! That, right!”
Then we exchanged greetings very casually, as if from the beginning it was because the boss had business to do, not me.
Ah, it’s not because of me, you came to talk to the boss. Well, since I’m an investor, I can talk to the boss.
Seeing Byul-i very leisurely greeting the boss, I realized that the 17-year-old girl I used to know was no longer parting, and that she had become an adult Nova.
And at the same time, I was relieved that Byul didn’t come to see me.
If it had been this reckless invasion of the president’s office without contacting me because I had business to do, I would have been in a lot of trouble. Fortunately, that’s not the case.
Byeol had something to do with the boss, so he recklessly came in without contact.
In that case, I should get out of the way so that a smooth meeting between the investor and the company president can take place.
This is the first time I’ve had a social life except for my days as a gangster, but I’ve noticed this much.
“Then I…”
The moment you press the elevator button to say goodbye to the two and watch the kids practice.
“Boss, that. I’m sorry, but my brother and I have something to talk about. So by the way, if it’s okay with you, may I take you?”
“Yes? Ah yes. It’s okay. After all, our business is over.”
“Thank you.”
Byul bowed her head to the boss and switched seats with the boss next to me.
Huh?
“Slow down and have a good conversation, guys. I’m busy with a lot of things, so stop.”
“The boss?”
The boss didn’t react at all to my words, so he opened the door to the president’s office and disappeared inside.
So I was left alone with Byul inside the elevator.
“Are you going home? It’s convenient to talk.”
In a situation that suddenly happened, Byul pressed the 4th floor of my house before I had time to say anything.
It was very difficult.
Beep beep beep beep.
“heheheheung. Shall we talk in the room? Or the living room sofa? Wouldn’t it be better to do it in your room?”
Entering the password as if it were his own house, Byul went to the only empty room in the house with his silver hair flowing.
It was a room that had been assigned an owner since the first time I got this house, and now it was Byeol’s room where no one except me, who was cleaning, could enter.

On that day, after I rejected Byul’s heart, I haven’t contacted Byul until now, so Byul’s room was the same as before.
“There is no dust. He is also my brother.”
Entering the room, Byul looked around the room and smiled with satisfaction.
Then I quickly walked over and sat down on the desk chair, turned around and looked at me standing in front of the door.
“·······.”
The sight of Byul looking at me silently while sitting on a chair with a smile on her face felt unfamiliar even to me, who prided herself on knowing the stars.
If you were the star I knew, you wouldn’t have behaved that way when you met me in front of the president’s office in the first place.
Perhaps the boss ignored me and immediately said to me, ‘Brother, follow me’ and then forcibly dragged me home.
Even if that happened, the situation wouldn’t have changed that much from now, but the difference in the process definitely suggested that something had happened to Byul.
Being polite is definitely a good thing. Why are you so anxious
Byul now looks like the night before a windless storm.
That’s why my vigilance increased by the second, but I had something to say before I became alert like this.
“Whoa…Welcome, byeol.”
That is to welcome Byeol as the landlord.
Before raising my guard and questioning my purpose, I greeted Byul, who was more like a family than my real family.
Then, I noticed Byul’s expression, which had been smiling incongruously, shaking for a moment.
“・・・・・・Yes. Long time no see.”
It was really just a moment, and Byeol immediately regained composure on his face.
Anyways, we exchanged greetings like this, and since Byul asked me to talk in the room, I have to enter this room to answer my questions.
It felt like entering a tiger’s den, but I was able to step in without difficulty.
To enter the tiger’s den. It reminds me of the old days and it’s good
Because I am an experienced tiger den.
“So. Why did you come without contact?”
Because Byeol was sitting on a chair, I had no choice but to sit on the bed and get right to the point.
Because I was so curious that a girl who hadn’t contacted me for a month suddenly came to visit me like this after we broke up like that to say goodbye leisurely.
“Why did you come without contact?”
Byul, who put my question straight into his mouth, uhh. He swallowed his voice, then answered my question.
“That’s what…”
※※※
A month ago, just one day had passed since Kang Jin-hyeok promised him that he would come to him for help in just one month.
“·······.”
Separation stayed in the corner of the room like a hikikomori.
The best singer of the present era, Nova, a mid-sized company that walks around, and a madman who lines up the Billboard charts with his songs, he is a shabby figure who is far from being just stuck in the corner of the room and wiggling his toes.
“I want to see my brother…”
The reason why the breakup ended up like this was, of course, Kang Jin-hyeok.
She was dumped by Kang Jin-hyeok, and she burned her anger for a day and promised to make her regret it, but her longing and affection for him were too great to keep burning that feeling.
Her mind and body were already too tired to rage and burn revenge for a long time as she thought.
“Still, let’s be patient.”
But that doesn’t mean that even after going through the rejection of my heart, I couldn’t allow the fraying pride of the breakup to visit me in two days.
“In a month, you will find out about the company’s problems. If that happens, my brother will have no choice but to come find me.”
So I was too tired to do anything, and I was in a complicated and delicate situation that my pride did not allow me to give up.
“Become a housekeeper.”
That’s why I decided to do nothing and just stay at home.
Then at least Kang Jin-hyuk won’t hurt his pride, and according to her plan, if he waits for a month, Kang Jin-hyuk will come to him first.
“Unless the president of Bareungil Entertainment suddenly wakes up and returns to his former form as a genius producer, then cuts off all the employees there and hires new people of the same level as himself, he has no choice but to come find me.”
Since such a thing could not happen, Byeol was almost certain that Kang Jin-hyeok would have no choice but to come find her.
“Because to make the best idols, you need the best people.”
I only saw the trainees cast by Kang Jin-hyeok for a very short time, but his trainees could definitely become the best idols.
However, no matter how brilliant a genius is, if the environment does not support it, the place where talent cannot flourish is the entertainment industry.
Seoul estimated that it would take a month for Kang Jin-hyeok to figure out everything from the company’s problems to the fact that the environment for his idols to blossom their talents with tolerable manpower was not enough.
“So you only have to endure for a month. Then, when my brother comes to visit me, I should remind him of my importance by bouncing him about three times before he asks me.”
Of course, with the ambiguous condition of refusal.
“After that, where should I go and play with my brother?”
In this way, parting burned the circuit of hope and searched for good places to go to play with Kang Jin-hyeok in the room.
But her wish never came true.
“Ugh!! Can not stand anymore!”
It was because the delusions about the happy days with Kang Jin-hyeok, which had been unfolding in the corner of the room for a month, broke the patience of parting.
“I’ll just go ahead and help you!”
※※※
It was for this reason that Byul came to Kang Jin-hyeok without contact.
“I thought I might be able to help you.”
Of course, I couldn’t say the truth straight away.
