“Give three reasons why I shouldn’t kill you right now.”
“Money, popularity, face, and acting skills.”
Lee Wooyeon casually pointed his finger at him and listed the reasons.
“You bastard. I said three, you said four!”
“You can choose one of the four that is convenient for you.”
CEO Kim threw the mineral water bottle on the table at Lee Wooyeon with all his might.
“Why are people so violent?”
Lee Wooyeon lightly took the bottle of mineral water with his bandaged hand and criticized CEO Kim. CEO Kim leaned back on the sofa feeling an eye-popping rage.
“You, now, , ha…”
CEO Kim covered his face with the palm of his hand. After catching his breath for a while, he raised his head and glared at Lee Wooyeon.
“What’s wrong with you these days? Are you crazy?”
“You’re saying it as if I was always normal.”
“Hey! I’m not in the mood to joke! What’s wrong with you? Even so, you’ve never gone out of your way to hit soone in front of others!Now you don’t even show the sincerity to wait patiently in a deserted place and strike down secretly!”
“I’ll be sincere next ti.”
“Don’t do it!”
A vein stood on Kim’s neck. Lee Wooyeon twisted the lid of the water bottle with a sad expression.
“But public opinion has been reversed.”
Lee Wooyeon tapped the laptop screen on the table with his finger.
The unprecedented violent incident that Lee Wooyeon caused on the road made headlines the next day. All kinds of sites and communities, as well as real-ti search word rankings, were covered in Lee Wooyeon’s na. Upon hearing the news, CEO Kim returned ho from China. Not only the office phone, but also CEO Kim’s cell phone was called.
The first emotion Kim felt was astonishnt, then anger at Lee Wooyeon, and then sha on himself for renewing the contract after knowing Lee Wooyeon’s true face.
It was Manager Cha who ca to visit him after he had been blaming himself for a long ti. Cha bowed his head and apologized, saying that there was nothing to say because this happened even though he was with him. CEO Kim shook his head.
‘Buddha, Allah, even if God were with him, that bastard would be unstoppable.’
‘…right?’
The two took a drink from the liquor store and started drinking. As the empty bottles piled up, CEO Kim opened his mouth with a calm expression.
‘How did you raise this company?’
At that word, the two middle-aged n hugged each other and cried. As they cried for a long ti and encouraged each other to write a statent to be announced tomorrow, a text ssage ca from the company’s public relations manager.
[Represntatibe. Ths is the Publc reltionsp manger..]
How urgent was it, the text was full of typos. CEO Kim quickly checked the article on his mobile phone.
“‘Celebrities who have to stay still even if there is a dispute’, ‘Lee Wooyeon, who was holding back silently, finally says sothing’, ‘Lee Wooyeon, a recording of the actual situation where he had no choice but to get angry.’”
Lee Wooyeon calmly read the titles of the article.
“It’s amazing.”
Lee Wooyeon went through the articles about him and continued with a nonchalant tone, as if it was about so other people.
“How can people’s thoughts change so easily?”
Public opinion, which had spread like a fire, changed because of an article posted on a site. The writer, who identified himself as the person in the car that day, said, “Lee Wooyeon is more handso and has a better voice than he looks on the screen, but his personality seems dirty,” adding, “I was really scared to death.” The comnts below mocked the writer with one voice. The sll of the burning birch trees vibrates, Fucking liar, Attension seeker working hard to write a boring novel, etc.
Then he left a note saying that the writer would bring evidence. People thought it was a lot of self-written writing, and didn’t take it seriously. A new post was posted an hour later. It was uploaded by attaching the black box recording file that was in the car that day.
So public opinion has completely turned upside down. The fact that Lee Wooyeon, who had always responded with a polite and relaxed voice, was angry at the swear words directed towards his girlfriend shook people’s hearts. Of course, upon hearing Lee Wooyeon’s voice, CEO Kim, Manager? Cha, and Choi Inseop imdiately realized that he had been furious from the beginning.
Fortunately or unfortunately, the quality of the man’s swearing at Chae Yeonseo was also disgusting. Chae Yeonseo’s agency also announced that they would sue him for defamation. It was like a return to Lee Wooyeon, who had visited her in the hospital that day.
“Everyone seems to be flexible in their thinking.”
CEO Kim grinded his teeth softly and glared at Lee Wooyeon.
“Still, I’m glad it stopped here.”
“You’re fortunate you didn’t freeze to death. Just because the public opinion has changed doesn’t an that the swearing at you will go away. Right now there is an award ceremony for a film festival this weekend, what are you going to do?”
“What do you an? I’m gonna go win an award.”
Lee Wooyeon was a strong candidate for the award ceremony.
“What kind of bastard who broke a man’s nose steps on the red carpet?”
Lee Wooyeon silently pointed his hand at his face. CEO Kim trembled at his handso appearance that made him want to kill him because he hated him.
“You can’t attend the film festival. You should look self-reflective for a while. If you go and get an award after what you did, you’ll be cursed at.”
Lee Wooyeon tilted his head.
“I took off my glasses.”
“…”
CEO Kim looked at the madman waiting for praise for a long ti, then struck himself in the chest with his fist.
“I did very well. Yes. I did well.”
“Good job? Fuck, I thought I was going to rip my tongue out, but I held it in.”
Seeing Lee Wooyeon’s eerily shining eyes, CEO Kim held his breath for a mont.
“Just be patient. Are you one of those weird guys? You’re not even really dating Chae Yeonseo… are you?”
“Did I get shot in the head?”
Lee Wooyeon looked disgusted with an expression as if he had swallowed sothing disgusting.
“Then why did you do that?”
Lee Wooyeon did not have a righteous personality, much less the type to stand up for others who he had nothing to do with. CEO Kim still did not understand why Lee Wooyeon was so angry. The only ti Lee Wooyeon loses his temper and goes wild…
“No way…”
“Is there anyone else I’m dating besides him?”
“… ”
He was stunned and no words ca out. The man tried to insult Lee Wooyeon and cursed his lover. To be precise, ‘the person Lee Wooyeon is dating’. As a result, the man cursed Choi Inseop, and that was Lee Wooyeon’s seizure button.
CEO Kim jumped up from his seat and took out the liquor that had been decorated in the display case. After pouring liquor into a paper cup and drinking two cups in a row, he pointed at Lee Wooyeon.
“I will go crazy because of you! I haven’t slept a wink for days!”
“Can I get you so dicine?”
“You take it.”
CEO Kim gestured, and suddenly a thought flashed through his head, and he opened his eyes.
“What kind of dicine are you taking? You’re not taking strange dicine, are you?”
Lately, he’d been thinking that Lee Wooyeon looked especially dangerous.
However, with Inseop by his side, he thought it would work out sohow and passed it on. CEO Kim reflected on his complacency again.
Instead of answering, Lee Wooyeon took out a dicine bag from his pocket and handed it to him. Even after checking the dicine bag provided by the hospital, CEO Kim did not let go of his suspicions.
“I’ve told you many tis, but if you take your dicine carelessly, you will be in big trouble. In the past, there was a very popular kid I raised called Kim Seohyeok…”
“I can’t sleep these days.”
“Eat it. Take your dicine. If you can’t sleep, eat.”
CEO Kim imdiately changed his words. This is what happened when Lee Wooyeon entered the boundary of insomnia. It was sothing he didn’t want to see even in his dreams.
“Don’t worry. Because it was the dicine prescribed by Director Choi.”
Director Choi was a doctor at the hospital where CEO Kim had taken Wooyeon himself before, and he was CEO Kim’s maternal cousin.
“Did you go to the hospital again?”
“I go every Thursday.”
“Do you get counseling?”
“Hahaha. No. You know that it’s useless. Actually, I don’t take dicine very well.”
CEO Kim stared blankly at Lee Wooyeon, who put the dicine bag back into his pocket. But the question of why he had to go to the hospital was on his face.
“Ordinary people expect that taking dicine will make them better. I’m the opposite.”
“What are you talking about?”
“I used to go to the hospital when I was young. Of course, it’s the sa. Coming to Korea was a similar situation.”
The scariest thing about Lee Wooyeon was that he indifferently talked about the terrible things that happened to him. At first, he wondered if he was deliberately pretending to be strong, but upon closer inspection, it wasn’t like that.
Lee Wooyeon had a blurry standard for what was important and what was not.
So he would react lightly to things that otherwise would have made him fuss.
CEO Kim didn’t know what to do every ti sothing like this happened, so he awkwardly averted his eyes and replied, “That’s right.”
“Psychiatric drugs are usually used as a way to suppress things down here.”
Lee Wooyeon tapped his temple and continued his explanation.
“It can help you sleep well, people beco relaxed, or sothing like that. However, I was a bit unusual, and I didn’t get well with psychoactive drugs. You’ll know when you see it.”
“Yes, I know that.”
CEO Kim recalled the ti when Inseop was stabbed and went into the operating room.
Even after taking three sleeping pills, which was said to make you fall asleep within seconds with just one dose, Lee Wooyeon went insane for a while.
“Every ti I take a pill, I know I’m sick here.”
“Then are you better?”
“It can’t be. I feel so damn dirty. How can it feel good to check that I am not normal every morning?”
“Then why do you eat? If it’s not good for your health.”
“To remind that I’m not normal so that I can keep myself in check.”
“…”
CEO Kim rubbed his eyes slightly.
Was it old age? He couldn’t believe the day had co when Lee Wooyeon looked pitiful.
“I don’t know if it’s a placebo effect, but I think I’m a little nicer than before.”
However, Lee Wooyeon’s angelic smile, which was imdiately visible, made CEO Kim straighten his weakened heart.
“You fell asleep after thinking it’s a placebo? This coming out from the lips of the bastard that broke a person’s nose?”
“Haha. Then you’ll be able to stay still after hearing all those? CEO, can you do that? I’ll never be able to do that.”
“Your love affair is too flashy. Anyone who sees it will think that you are dating for the first ti in your life.”
“This is my first ti.”
“How can you lie with a straight face? Bastard. I’ve seen a few of your affairs.”
“It was just sex.”
Lee Wooyeon sumd up his past very simply. Then, as if he thought he was missing sothing, he quickly added an unnecessary, vulgar explanation.
“Of course, sex with Inseop is the best.”
“Ugh. Don’t tell that!”
CEO Kim hated it and pretended to block his ears. Lee Wooyeon laughed with his eyes down. Seeing that appearance, which seed sowhat bitter, CEO Kim opened up the things he had been putting in place one by one.
“A bastard who loves so pathetically, why do you fight?”
When he heard that Choi Inseop was also in the car that day, CEO Kim couldn’t understand it at all. That was because Inseop was in a situation where he could fully control it.
‘The two must have fought. They didn’t even make eye contact, Inseop couldn’t say a word from the side and was at a loss.’
However, Mr. Cha’s explanation imdiately convinced CEO Kim.
“We didn’t fight. Why would I fight with him?”
“How could it be a fight with the angelic Inseop?”
“I’m just pissed off at that angelic bastard.”
Lee Wooyeon replied with a smile like a flower. If there was a flower that blood in hell, it would look like this. CEO Kim asked as he rubbed his goosebumps on his arm.
“What’s so annoying about him? Could it be that Inseop broke up with you?”
“Ha….”
Lee Wooyeon let out a sigh and wiped his face with his palm. It was an expression he didn’t see even when he received all sorts of malicious comnts for several days. Then suddenly, Lee Wooyeon lifted his head. A life like glint flashed in his eyes.
“Don’t even joke about it.”
In his eyes, at any mont, tearing opponents to pieces and killing others overflowed. CEO Kim quickly turned his eyes to the side and continued his words.
“Then why are you doing that? There’s no way that kind Inseop did anything wrong to you. You must have done sothing very wrong.”
Lee Wooyeon laughed bitterly.
“That kind bastard, damn it. If I really like him more, I won’t be able to die well.”
“…”
Please don’t live to die because you like him more.
CEO Kim swallowed the words he wanted to say.
Then a knock was heard.
“CEO. Lawyer Shin is here.”
Assistant manager Jo alerted him from the outside.
“Lawyer Shin? Is he done talking about the agreent? Just tell him to co in.”
Lee Wooyeon has already concluded an agreent with the man whose nose he broke by paying a large sum of money. At first, the person who was running rampant to file a complaint imdiately lowered his tail when the story of the complaint ca out from the side of Chae Yeonseo. After that, the agreent with Lee Wooyeon was made in a snap.
“I called him.”
“Why? Could it be that you hit soone else?!”
CEO Kim’s face beca contemplative.
“I have a contract to fill. I have so paperwork to sort out too.”
“What papers? I’m saying this just in case, but I’ve never pretended to be joking.”
All of Lee Wooyeon’s public affairs were handled by CEO Kim. The sa was true of property and tax matters. Lee Wooyeon had never once complained about CEO Kim’s handling of work. Regarding this, the CEO was surprised and asked Wooyeon if he truly believed in CEO Kim. Lee Wooyeon smiled and replied.
‘It doesn’t matter if you play with money. Until I find out.’
Of course, he handled it well before, but after that, CEO Kim managed it thoroughly so that there was not even a 10 won error.
“I know. I didn’t call for that.”
“Do you want to give you so space?”
At CEO Kim’s question, Lee Wooyeon shook his head.
.
“It’s not a big deal.”
Lee Wooyeon said as if it was not a big deal. After a while there was a knock and the lawyer ca in. After a light greeting, the lawyer imdiately took out the docunts from his bag.
“This is the contract you asked for. Read it once.”
It took only a few seconds for CEO Kim’s face, which had been laughing carelessly, to turn into an earthy color.
