章 83: Passionate Tae-Hoon
Ji-Hoon was going through the information about the herbal supplies when he received a call from Yoo-Na. “Hello.” he picked up the call without moving his attention from the files.
“Hello, Ji-Hoon. How are you doing?” Yoo-Na asked in a sweet and shy voice.
Blinking twice Ji-Hoon checked whether it was Yoo-Na or someone else but the screen showed her name. Clearing his throat, he said, “I am fine... just going through this month’s supplies.”
“Oh, is there any problem?” she asked.
“No, everything is going... smooth.” but his tone said that something was up with the monthly files of the deal between them.
“Good, then do you have time this Thursday?” she asked enthusiastically.
“Thursday... I guess I will be free after five. Why?”
“Brilliant, let’s go on a movie date.” she squealed through the other side.
“Movie... Ok, as you say.” he immediately agreed.
“Gosh, I did not know that I needed an obedient Mr. Shim in my life as well.” she snickered and Ji-Hoon slightly laughed as well. “Then see you on Thursday.” Ji-Hoon said.
“I will pick you up in my car by five. I don’t want a third person between us.” she said and he agreed.
…
Se-Young was telling about her new recipe to the juniors when Jae-In approached her.
“Se-Young.” she looked at him and then again at others. “I will be back in a minute.” she said and tagged Jae-In away from the crowd.
She removed her mask and said, “Now say.”
“Oh, I was thinking that there is this new movie releasing on Thursday. So, I think we should go there as you know... for our first date.” Se-Young just wanted to run away but she kept that fake smile plastered onto her face.
“Sure, now I should get back to them.” she immediately left from there.
“Runaway how much you want, I will not leave you alone this time.” he smiled talking to himself looking at her back.
...
~Next day~
Everyone was having breakfast when Tae-Hoon suddenly spoke, “Dad, I want to start working.” not only Min-Hoon but others were looking at him as he was speaking in some alien language except Hani.
“Jung-Nan, pinch me.” Min-Hoon said to her and she did without thinking twice. “OUCH.” he groaned. “What type of revenge are you taking from me.” he said rubbing his upper arm.
Suppressing her laughter by pursing her lips Jung-Nan looked away while others were also trying not to laugh. “Well, that is... really good. You have learned some lesson I guess.” Min-Hoon said as Tae-Hoon just kept his head low.
Hani felt sad because it felt as if Tae-Hoon was feeling self-conscious so, under the table she placed her hand on his hand and looked at him while giving him a small smile.
Tae-Hoon looked towards her as well and returned the smile with gratefulness.
…
Just like that few days passed by and Tae-Hoon was managing his studies and learning about Shim Entertainment as well. What he found about the company was astonishing.
Unlike other businesses in which Shims were involved, it was in the worst condition. The Shim entertainment was going down with its progress and the reasons were numerous.
First, his father never intervened himself with the agency stuff. Second, the artists were barely talented. Third, the new artists who really had some talents were not getting ahead because of their seniors and many more similar things.
He was really frustrated at the condition of the company.
One day he went into the studio where someone was recording for an upcoming album. Everyone stood up from their seats and positioned to pay him respect but he gestured them to continue whatever they were doing.
But he was confused at one thing, the girl who was inside the recording room was a nobody and more than surprising was the fact that the girl who was one of their famous artists was standing beside the producers.
The voice of that girl inside the recording room was like honey.
“STOP.” he said loudly with a strict face and the music was halted as everyone looked at him concerned and he pointed the girl inside the recording room to come out with his index finger.
That girl hurriedly got out, getting rid of the headphones.
Now everyone was standing in front of him.
“Should I be knowing about this matter or not?” he asked the producer and no one said anything. “No wonder we are so down.” he scoffed.
“You.” he pointed at the girl who was recording earlier. “No more singing unless you are the one going to be on stage.” his voice was so frightening that she hurriedly nodded.
“And you” now he accosted the girl who was the real artist. “No more albums until you learn to sing for yourself.” he warned and she clenched her fist bearing her anger.
“PD-nim, I want the reports for every single artist, whether they sing themselves or they are just acting on the mercy of others and also, the reports for people like her who are working for others.” he pointed at the girl who was singing earlier and that girl felt really grateful, she thought that maybe finally she was going to have a chance. “That too, by tomorrow morning.” and he left the studio.
“Who does he think he is, this company works just because of my looks.” the girl said who was the real artist in the world's eye. “Miss Hey-Rin, don’t worry. I am going to talk to Mr. Shim myself.” The PD pleaded with her.
“You better do and you, don’t think too highly of yourself.” she pointed at the other girl who just bowed her head down feeling dejected by her words.
…
Ji-Hoon went to the parking area of the company and Yoo-Na was standing leaning onto her car wearing a deep V-cut cantaloupe Halter with length up to her mid-thighs, 'The Perfect Definition of Hot', that what she was looking like.
