Hyunwoo Lee was a little surprised.

To think that Hana Kim was someone who could talk like this.

When she talked like that, she seemed pretty knowledgeable.

And the situation where Ryu In-yeong found herself unable to do anything and cornered was very exhilarating.

“All right. After finding out the exact circumstances....”

“Find out the exact circumstances!? That employee didn’t even say hello, kissed her teeth at a customer, and tried to claim I was lying? And yet you still want to find the exact circumstances? Do you think I’m lying? I see. You will fight to the end, huh?”

“No, no! I won’t argue with you again! We will punish her properly. And I’m sorry. This incident is also my fault for not properly training the staff. Sorry.”

“Manager!”

The manager, who had tried to protect his employee until the end, eventually surrendered.

It was a battle in which he had no choice but to lose. 

Ryu In-young, who did not understand that, screamed at him.

“Ms Inyoung. Don’t continue screaming. Please apologize to the customer.”

“No, but the fight was started by her first...”

“I heard that you kissed your teeth without saying hello first. Is that correct?”

“It is, but...”

“Ha... Then apologize. Anyway, isn’t it the case that Ms. In-young’s customer service attitude was wrong? If you don’t like to be disciplined, you can leave.”

“Manager...”

Ryu In-young put on an expression as if she had lost the world when the manager, whom she thought would protect her until the end, displayed a cold attitude toward her.

Society was such a cruel place.

The manager had done his best to protect his subordinates.

But there was no loyalty in choosing to protect his subordinates at the cost of sacrificing his own company life.

“...”

Ryu In-young was conflicted.

Even if she quit the outlet, there would still be a place to work.

But finding a job wasn’t that easy.

Eventually, she put her head down and apologised.

“Sorry. Miss...”

‘I won!’

Lee Hyun-woo felt he had won because Ryu In-young apologized.

Unlike Lee Hyeon-woo, who was just happy, Hana Kim had no intention of ending it just with that.

She lowered her head slightly and spoke so that only Ryu In-young could hear her.

“Yeah, you should have known who you were messing with. If you go around talking about other people’s men behind their backs, you’ll be punished again.”

“What!?”

At Hana Kim’s last words, Inyoung Ryu raised her head.

But she knew couldn’t continue acting out anymore.

It was because she understood who she was up against only after lowering her head.

“Send the disciplinary results to me. I will check up on it.”

Hana Kim wrote down her number and handed it to the manager.

If she was going to discipline her, she had to make sure to take it all the way.

In many ways, he seemed to have found out about a lot of new sides to Kim Hana today.

“Oppa, did I do well?”

The two walked out of the outlet with a confident trot.

And as soon as people’s gaze faded away, Kim Hana clung to Lee Hyeon-woo.

From a ferocious fox, she became a possessive fox once more.

“Well done. You did so well. For some reason, I seem to find you so pretty today…?”

Lee Hyeon-woo praised Hana Kim a lot.

He may have been exaggerating a bit, but his compliments were sincere.

She had caught the unlucky bitch like a cornered mouse, so how could she not look pretty in his eyes?

“But where did you learn to speak like that? You seem really knowledgeable, unlike usual?”

“Eh. So you’re saying that I usually look ignorant? Oppa, you didn’t know I actually started a 4-year course at Seoul University, right? Although I dropped out to pursue my streaming in my freshman year.”

“OMG. Were you good at studying?”

“Yep? So please treat me a little better. Because a girl who is this pretty, has a great body and has a good head is clinging to Oppa. I did a lot of good things today, so why don’t you buy me two shoes?”

“Ahahaha. Okay. Okay. I’ll buy you two. But I don’t think I have time to go to the department store right now... You go buy it later. I will transfer you back whatever you buy.”

Actually, he had no shortage of time.

He was just short of money because he had scraped out 18 million won at the outlet.

But he couldn’t exactly say that he didn’t have enough money, so it was an excuse to buy time.

If she asked him to buy it from his own pockets, he would not be able to give her the money.

So he just told her to buy it herself, and then he could refund the total off of her next week’s cashback payment.

Most of the 18 million won spent at the outlet were items for Lee Hyun-woo.

He bought two pairs of formal shoes, three suits, two ties, a watch, six casual clothes, and a pair of sneakers.

Among them, the watch cost 9 million won, accounting for half of the total expenditure.

Although they paid a high price, they were all items he planned to use.

So he had not overspent.

And if it was just 18 million won, that amount would return to his pockets in a week.

“Eh, then I don’t feel like buying the present. Okay. We’ll buy it another time when we go to the department store. Then, where are you going now?”

Hana Kim asked as she opened the car door. 

“Car shopping to look for a car.”

“Oh! Oppa, are you finally buying a car? What are you going to buy?”

“Well. I haven’t decided what to buy yet. I’d like to go look around for a while. I’ll buy a car I like there.”

Hyunwoo Lee did not own a car worthy of being called a dream car.

Because he had no interest in cars.

Still, he hoped to be able to feel the wind and being pressed against the seat while driving really fast.

So he was looking for a foreign car.

He was thinking of buying a car that was extremely cool and that women would like.

“Then… Shall we go check one out for a while?”
