After lunch was over, I went back to my seat and started to memorize what I had memorized in the morning. Thanks to Yeonhee, my head was clearer, so I was able to memorize it more easily than I thought.

Of course, even so, since there was a lot to memorize in the first place, it seemed a bit difficult to memorize it all today, but I’m still doing my best at what I have to do now.

“Huh… I guess Joohyun met Yeonhee for lunch?”

“Oh yes……I made a lunch appointment with Yeonhee…”

“Really? I also want to become friends with Yeonhee, but since we don’t meet often, it’s harder than I thought… Let’s have lunch together next time when you have time”

“Okay, I’ll tell you later”

Thanks to the team leader who spoke to me kindly every now and then, the awkwardness was eased little by little, but the other senior team members didn’t seem to have much intention of talking to me.

I don’t know if this is the original atmosphere or if it’s because I was parachuted in, but either way, it seems like I’ll still need time to become close with the other team members.

I spent some time looking over the documents the team leader had given me, and before I knew it, it was time to leave work.

“Then you worked hard today and I’ll see you all tomorrow”

“”See you tomorrow””

Most other departments are still working and few people are preparing to leave work, but Sales Team 3 is slowly preparing to leave work.

‘Are you okay?’

I thought that since it was a large company, there would be some overtime work, but from the first day, my senior team members left work as if it was normal.

However, the team leader does not get up from his seat and continues to work as if there is still work left to do.

‘I wonder if I should leave work as well, Team Leader…’

Since it was the first day, I thought it would be bad to have a new employee leave work first, so I stayed and people from other departments started leaving work one by one.

So around 8 o’clock, most people left work and only the team leader and I were left concentrating on our work.

“Ugh…Huh? Joo, Joohyun?! You didn’t get off work?”

“Ah…yes, I’m going to do it when the team leader gets off work”

“No…I can leave work…”

The team leader, who had been so focused on his work that he had not noticed his surroundings at all, only just noticed me and looked a little bewildered.

“Then I’m leaving work now”

“Yes, I understand”

“You didn’t eat dinner, did you? I’ll buy it, so eat it before you go”

“No, it’s okay”

“I’m not okay, that’s why……I didn’t know there were any left….”

Team leader apologizing with a truly sorry expression

Since she was used to letting her subordinates leave first and working alone, she never thought that he would stay behind, so she blocked out her surroundings and focused on her work as usual.

In a case like today, I was observing Joo-hyun from time to time, so things slowed down a bit and I was concentrating more because of that, so I didn’t really know she was there.

‘I should tell them I’m going home to eat dinner.’

I really wanted to go home and see the females waiting for me, but the detective felt so sorry and wanted to buy me dinner, so I had no choice but to eat dinner with them, and that was how my first day at work ended.

……………………….

‘I didn’t think it would last forever… but it turned out well’

These days, employees are reluctant to have company dinners, and Miyoung herself doesn’t like it either, so she deliberately excluded it from the plan because she thought it would be difficult to get close to them through a company dinner after work. However, now that she has a chance to have dinner together like this, she can say that it’s actually beneficial.

“There’s a good restaurant I know over there, let’s go there”

“Yes, I understand”

When you see Joo-Hyeon, who has an attitude that is not much different from other new employees, you might mistake her for an ordinary new employee.

‘It seems like it’s not someone who was originally a member of the family, but someone who came to the family from outside… It seems like it’s Yeonhee’s younger sibling’s lover.’

I’m not sure yet, but judging by his behavior and the way he treats other people, I’d say he’s closer to an ordinary person.

Perhaps she could be seen as someone who rose in social status by getting to know Yeonhee’s younger sibling by chance, but Miyoung is not stupid enough to feel jealous of that.

If she can make good use of this situation and achieve her goal by getting lucky with Joo-hyun, then Joo-hyun can be considered lucky for Mi-young.

“The sushi here is pretty good….Is there anything you can’t eat?”

“No, I’m not a picky eater”

“Thank goodness…..here it is”

The place Miyoung came to was a fancy restaurant that she liked but couldn’t visit often, and it was a good place to talk because it had rooms.

She decided that it would be better to come to a place where the two of them could be together quietly, even if it was a little more expensive, because it would be a negative if there were any disturbances around her as she became closer to Joo-hyun.

So the two of them went into the room together and were alone in a quiet place as they had hoped, so it felt a little awkward, but just being alone like this was the best situation for her.

“So it wasn’t hard from day one?”

“Yes, I haven’t memorized it all yet…but I think I’ll definitely memorize it tomorrow or the day after”

“You have about a week to spare, so you can take your time. If there’s anything you need or are inconvenienced by, just let me know so I can resolve it right away”

“Yes, thank you”

Mi-young, who acts as a caring and attentive boss to her subordinates, smiled inwardly at Joo-hyun’s smile, pleased that her plan was going well.

I don’t plan on making Joohyun do anything difficult or hard in the future.

Anyway, since he would easily become an executive even if he just sat still with Joo-hyun’s connections, it is more important to build up his favor by giving him tasks that will give him a sense of accomplishment rather than forcing him to do difficult tasks and leaving a bad impression.

It could be said that it is a bit selfish of her to think more about herself than Joo-hyun, but for Mi-young, nothing is more important in life than her own success, so she doesn’t really care.

“So, do you plan on having lunch with Yeonhee often?”

“Ah..yes of course I would if we had to eat together as team members, but since Yeonhee..is alone, I think it would be better for me to be with her”

“Huh… Is Yeonhee the older sister of Joohyun’s girlfriend?”

“Yes, that’s right”

Joo-hyun easily tells us about his identity

Miyoung smiled inwardly and asked a question when she found out his identity, which was as she had expected.

“Are you close with Yeonhee? I guess there aren’t many people at work who are close with Yeonhee”

“I also got to know and became close with Yeonji thanks to her..yes..a lot…”

Joo-hyun said something meaningful while seeming to be in trouble, but Mi-young didn’t know that and since she might think it was strange if she asked about Yeon-hee too often, she ended her questions here for the time being.

“What did you do before?”

“Yes, I mainly did delivery work….”

“Wow… That must have been hard work, you’re amazing”

As they talked, Mi-young began to slowly learn information about Joo-hyun, and she realized that, just as she had thought, Joo-hyun was not from the upper class and had been living an ordinary life, but his life had changed after he met Yeon-ji.

‘This is actually a better situation’

If the life you’ve lived from the beginning is different, you may have a hard time empathizing or liking each other, but if not, it can actually help you become closer.

The person she knew named Joo-Hyeon was quite an ordinary person, but she also found out that he had a kind personality.

‘So then what should we do….’

Miyoung’s goal is not simply to become close to Joohyun, but to make Joohyun like Miyoung and actively help her advance to a higher position in the company.

There is also a plan to use him to get closer to Yeonhee, as it will be easier to rise to the executive level just by looking good in Yeonhee’s eyes without having to go all the way to the chairman.

“Okay, then let’s eat first”

The sushi they had been waiting for arrived, and as they ate and chatted lightly with each other, Miyoung smiled inwardly as she felt they had grown closer, and the dinner ended successfully.

……………………….

“I’m back”

“Come on, oppa~~~~~~~~♥♥♥♥♥”

As soon as I got home, four females came out to greet me.

Since I called to say I was coming, everyone came out on time and greeted me at the front door, which made me feel like the head of the household.

“Thank you for your hard work, sir”

“Thank you for your hard work, Master”

When my mother-in-law and Aunt Ajeong greeted me, I naturally started to tense up my stomach.

“Were you like that?”

“This is what I wore before the West came♥”

My mother-in-law, who was looking at me with a lewd smile, was waiting wearing a maid bikini similar to that of Ajeong.

“Today, I will personally volunteer for this husband who worked hard, mother-in-law♥”

She says she is a mother-in-law, but she is waiting for me like this in front of her daughters and is planning to do a lot of lewd things.

‘Then, of course, Yeonji and Yeonhee will do it too…’

It wouldn’t have been strange if all four of them had the same appearance, but only my mother-in-law greeted me in a particularly prepared state.

“I lost the bet, so I decided to serve only my mother today….”

Yeonhee speaks with regret and Yeonji puffs out her cheeks at the sight

Still, he doesn’t say much about whether he agrees with the result of the bet.

“I’ll do it tomorrow, oppa♥”

“Okay, Yeonji”

Yeonji, the lover, accepted this situation without a problem, and the mother-in-law said with an obscene smile.

“Then, enjoy this Western-only made-in-law mother-in-law to your heart’s content today♥”
