[Episode 104] Being able to comfort someone’s sorrow

After meeting Shin Won-sun, Lee Si-woo entered Shin Ae-ra’s room.

He gently patted his arm that kept hurting.

How long have you been hurt like this?

Although I have suffered minor injuries while working, it has not been a long time since I have suffered such a serious injury.

Luckily, it was a little bit mismatched and it ended up with blood bruises, but it wasn’t strange if I made a mistake and broke a bone.

“Siwoo, why did you go out there like that? You should have got in the car and ran away.”

“Well. Did you really let them run away?”

“that… … .”

“I’m sorry for making you nervous. Still, I thought it was best in that situation. Are you okay now that I’m surprised?”

Shin Ae-ra did not know how nervous she was in the car.

The moment Lee Si-woo was hit by a pipe, he was so startled that he even screamed.

“… … I don’t know.”

Shin Ae-ra shook her head with a sullen expression.

Siwoo Lee, who looked at him like he was cute, immediately tilted his head.

“But who is that?”

The assailants appeared not to have been highly trained.

Still, it was a dangerous enough situation for the general public.

Fortunately, it was possible to cope with what I had been faithfully learned at the action school, but it would have been dangerous without even that.

“Sioux, the truth is… … .”

Shin Ae-ra told Lee Si-woo about Kang Eung-ryong and Kang Joon.

Upon hearing the story, Si-Woo Lee’s expression hardened in an instant.

He even got up from his seat when he heard that Kang-jun was trying to take drugs because he couldn’t contain his anger.

It was in front of Shin Ae-ra, so she just clenched her fists and trembled.

“I wish I had dealt with the situation a little better… … .”

“Why is that my sister’s fault? The problem is with a guy named Kang Joon who did dirty things.”

“Siu… … .”

“Yeah, it was weird. I think I can now see why he was so nervous when Kang Eung-ryong suddenly came and told him to end his relationship with his sister.”

Even so, Shi-woo was thinking about it.

There were signs that her relationship with Shin Ae-ra would cause problems, and that caused her to resign.

It must have been painful to lose a trusted subordinate, but there was no need to come and set the day like that.

Because the sense of disparity with the appearance he had shown so far was so great, Siwoo Lee had no choice but to feel uncomfortable.

Unsurprisingly, after listening to the story today, I realized that the sense of uneasiness I felt was right.

“Kang Eung-ryong must know what a guy named Kang Joon did.”

“Really?”

“You’ve already seen the faces hidden behind the masks. What is your sister expecting from him?”

At that, Shin Ae-ra bowed her head and shrugged her shoulders.

It seems that the last remaining hope has been shattered.

Si-woo Lee felt sorry for her gloomy appearance, but he thought that he should know the reality.

That way you can be prepared.

With that mindset, Siwoo Lee has been able to grow Nuri that much because he has always considered and prepared for the worst.

Whoops-

Lee Si-woo grabbed Shin Ae-ra’s dwarf shoulder with both hands.

“What are you so afraid of? I know that Kang Eung-ryong used to be like a father to my sister. I know how much you want to trust that person. But look at reality.”

“I don’t want to believe it. Still, he was once a person who took care of me and gave for me… … .”

“My older sister is no longer a civil servant, but the president of the Gangdong Works. You have to show what your boss is. At that time, Kang Eung-ryong was by my sister’s side, but now I am.”

“Siu.”

“I’ll promise. I will never do anything my sister told me not to do. There’s no guarantee that it won’t change, but at least I won’t make and hide something secret from you.”

At the end of those words, Si-Woo made eye contact with Ae-Ra Shin.

His heart started pounding, and his body heated up slightly.

It was then that Si-woo Lee realized that he was nervous.

It wasn’t the same tension I felt when I confronted the men earlier.

Although he didn’t know exactly what it was to like someone of the opposite sex, Siwoo felt it was clear that he liked Shin Ae-ra for this moment.

Siwoo Lee moved the hand that was holding her shoulder to her cheek.

Her cheeks were hot too.

She was nervous and didn’t notice, but her cheeks were flushed red.

It was so lovely that Siwoo Lee kissed her.

Unlike the usual way of thinking about when to close your eyes or when to remove your lips, when it comes time to kiss, you can act naturally.

After a while, Lee Si-woo, who opened her mouth while panting for a bit, embraced Shin Ae-ra in her arms.

Then he gently stroked her back.

smart-

At that time, a middle-aged man came in with a knock and was shocked to see the two of them.

“Big, uh, huh.”

Park Soo-beom turned his head and coughed in vain.

Only then, Si-woo realized that someone had entered, and separated Ae-ra Shin from her arms.

“Bar, Chairman Park?”

Surprised by Park Soo-bum’s appearance, Si-woo tilted his head.

I couldn’t understand why he appeared in Shin Ae-ra’s room.

“When I heard that you had been attacked, I ran to you in a hurry, miss.”

Park Soo-beom politely bowed his head and was polite to Shin Ae-ra.

“President Park… … .”

“You don’t know how surprised I was to hear the news from the president. By the way… The two of you, when did your relationship develop like this? … .”

Lee Si-woo, who did not know that Park Soo-beom had become Shin Won-sun’s ears and eyes without anyone knowing, looked at him with eyes full of vigilance.

“Hmmm. Lady, I guess you haven’t told the representative yet.”

“Oh, I’m out of my mind.”

“It’s worth it. May I sit down for a moment?”

Still, Park Soo-beom had a plan to meet Lee Si-woo.

Among the people who could stand by Shin Ae-ra right now, he was the person with the greatest influence.

“Sit down.”

With Shin Ae-ra’s permission, Park Soo-beom sat down on a chair.

Then, looking at Si-woo Lee’s arm, he gave a sad look.

“Is your arm okay? I heard that he dragged his time against strong men with even weapons.”

“Ah yes. Only minor wounds remained. But why did President Park come here? A person who follows Governor Kang Eung-ryong.”

Park Soo-beom nodded as if he understood Lee Si-woo’s cold expression.

“It is just misleading. If you don’t know, you’ll look like a supporter of Kang Eung-ryong. But if it wasn’t for the request of the former president, I wouldn’t have approached Kang Eung-ryong.”

When Si-woo Lee looked at Ae-ra Shin, she explained about Park Soo-beom.

After hearing all the truth, Siwoo bowed his head.

“Sorry for the misunderstanding.”

“It was worthy enough. Anyway, I had something to tell you after meeting the CEO, but it went well.”

“Are you talking about me?”

Anyway, the redevelopment project in Pyeongtaek was going to slip.

Because of that, he felt sorry for Siwoo Lee, who had won the bid while struggling.

However, not long ago, I heard that Si-woo Lee gave up the redevelopment project neatly.

“I heard you gave up on the redevelopment project.”

“yes. My relationship with Ae-ra’s sister was also involved, and above all, I decided that it was a project that could not be carried out with Nuri’s current infrastructure. I’m sorry, but I can’t help it.”

“You don’t have to be so sorry. At first, Kang Eung-ryong thought the CEO was a one-time thing.”

“yes?”

Kang Eung-ryong did not intend to hand over the redevelopment and demolition project to Si-woo Lee in the first place.

Haeun Group’s affiliates had already promised to carry out the demolition project.

But why did Nuri play an important role in the redevelopment project?

It was also because of Shin Ae-ra.

“At first, the young lady must have offered to give Nuri the right to demolition business.”

“yes. Originally, Haeun Construction, an affiliate of the Haeun Group, was preparing to bid. But I never said no. Because the price was outrageous.”

“Do you know the unit price suggested by Haeun Group?”

“It was 100 won for scrap metal and 700 won for waste. It is different from the unit price suggested by Nuri.”

It was the same price as wanting to eat for free.

“In Kang Eung-ryong’s particle, I would not have been able to deny the claim of the young lady. So he must have used all sorts of excuses to take away the demolition business right from Nuri.”

“Even if I am there?”

“I had already accepted her proposal once, and I would have ignored her opinion using that as an excuse.”

However, Kang Eung-ryong thought of Lee Si-woo too easily.

Siwoo Lee made the operation of the company transparent so that there is no noise in tax issues and other issues.

In the end, there was nothing that Kang Eung-ryong could accuse Nuri.

“Isn’t there anything that can be done with Nuri’s current situation?”

“So he was preparing to take the business from Nuri.”

“In what way?”

“If Nuri gets her waste license suspended, she would have thought that she could take over the business right. Do you know who piled up the waste on the land purchased by Boseong Construction?”

Lee Si-woo’s expression hardened when he remembered the enormous amount of waste.

“It is a trading company currently headed by Kang Joon. With the advantage of a trading company, Kang secretly brought waste into Korea and dumped the waste on empty land.”

“really… You are doing a dirty job.”

“We received 1 billion won to dispose of that amount of waste. And part of that money went into Kang Eung-ryong’s illegal political fund.”

“under… A trading company imports waste… … .”

“Public officials working at Busan Port have already joined hands with Kang Eung-ryong. What he said became a reality. It is said that there are many thieves in the country. I wouldn’t have known that it was a term referring to myself.”

Those who inspected the customs had already been persuaded by Kang Eung-ryong.

“By the way, what do you mean by using the waste to pressure Nuri? No, did you buy the land even though you knew it?”

There are no secrets in the world.

Someday, someone will find out, and someone has to carry a gun.

When a company called Nuri got in the way of his work, Kang Eung-ryong tried to get rid of Lee Si-woo with the waste.

But before that, Park Soo-beom found out about Kang Eung-ryong’s plan.

“yes. Originally, it was prepared to capture Kang Eung-ryong’s weakness. But we did it because there might be innocent victims if we leave it like this.”

“… … Is this possible?”

“The position of the governor is a position that can sufficiently decorate such a thing. When the Pyeongtaek redevelopment project started, some of the waste would have been dumped on the land without permission. Then Nuri, the Pyeongtaek redevelopment and demolition company, would have been suspicious.”

Park Soo-beom had not yet found conclusive evidence that Kang-jun’s trading company had dumped waste on the site.

He fully confirmed Lee Si-woo’s potential, and he felt that such a young man should not be subjected to a dirty politician like Kang Eung-ryong.

“I told the president to dispose of the waste. Of course, at that time, the relationship between the CEO and the young lady was not well established, but I said that the former CEO was a person who should not be hit by Kang Eung-ryong.”

Several issues were intertwined.

And at the center of it were Kang Eung-ryong and Kang Joon.

Obviously, Kang Eung-ryong used Si-woo Lee as his shield and freed himself from the waste.

There is no coincidence in everything.

Park Soo-beom bought the land to grab Kang Eung-ryong’s leash.

But it was the moment when I was worried because there was no proper evidence.

The civil engineering work was done to the place where the waste was, in order to properly inform the world of what the rich man Kang Eung-ryong had done.

“Of course, there is a calculation behind all of this. We did not dispose of the waste simply to help the CEO.”

It was to create a rift between Kang Eung-ryong and Ha-eun.

So that Nuri can safely proceed with the demolition project.

“If Nuri successfully completes the demolition project, you thought that the relationship between Haeun Group and Kang Eungryong would inevitably break.”

Si-woo Lee, who was shaking his head, noticed why Park Soo-beom helped him.

“you’re right. So, I tried to help Nuri at Boseong Construction as much as possible. We tried to spare no effort to provide equipment and support for the demolition. However, the demolition project went awry because of the lady’s intervention.”

It was not intended to thwart the redevelopment from the beginning.

As Shin Ae-ra and Lee Si-woo rapidly became close, Nuri gave up on the demolition project.

Within a day, Kang Eung-ryong handed it over to an affiliate of the Eun Group, which was in the business of demolition.

He gave Haeun Construction full control over the project under the pretext that there was not enough time to prepare for bidding for the project, which is only half a year away.

“The plan has changed as my relationship with Siu has progressed.”

“Yes, miss. Chairman Kang Eung-ryong tried to thoroughly punish the rich man who touched the young lady. And for the sake of the future of the Republic of Korea, he said he never wanted to see Kang Eung-ryong become president. And above all else, the reason you’ve been patient is because you don’t want her to get hurt.”

“ah… … .”

“I was concerned that the young lady who learned the nature of Kang Eung-ryong would be hurt. And CEO Siwoo Lee said he was lucky to be by her side.”

Park Soo-beom looked at Shin Ae-ra with strong eyes.

“I will ask Mrs. Do you want Kang Eung-ryong to collapse?”

“If I want… Can you bring down Kang Eung-ryong?”

“If the lady wants it, anything is possible.”

The relationship with Kang Eung-ryong has already been settled.

Now I know that it is foolish to expect something like Siwoo Lee said.

“Please do that, Chairman Park.”

“Is there anything you would like to say to CEO Siwoo Lee?”

Lee Si-woo was more upset that he had hurt Shin Ae-ra than that he had touched him.

“I want Kang Eung-ryong to collapse when he is most happy.”

“Fufu, you are cruel.”

“I want you to feel a little bit of the wounds your sister received.”
