After dropping off Neptune members at their residence, we returned to Sangamdong. The meeting place was a hurriedly reserved high-class sushi restaurant. Although we didn’t know if we were going to attend, Hyunjo dragged us there saying it was a good idea to show our faces to the CEO.
I simply breathed while following behind Hyunjo.
Honestly, I wasn’t in my right mind since a while ago.
Hahaha. How could I be in my right mind? Considering the waves crashing down on my life today, it was good enough that I didn’t suffer a heart attack.
I was relieved thinking my mind wasn’t as weak as I thought.
“I think they’ve arrived?”
The first to arrive were from W&U. The management business director was a middle-aged man whose head was starting to bald while the management team 3 leader was a man in his mid-thirties with a pleasant impression.
And lastly, the man who got out of the Rolls Royce was the CEO, the man who I had only seen in pictures in interviews. He was the role model for me who was dreaming of becoming the CEO of a management company.
Baek Hansung.
My mind sobered up as soon as I saw him.
He looked 10 years younger than his real age of forty-seven and his body revealed that he exercised regularly. He was wearing a high-quality suit under a cashmere coat, but his appearance… He looked like he could be the cover model for a men’s magazine.
Above all, his actions were filled with confidence and dignity. Of course, he was someone who could be dignified. He had built a huge management company like W&U starting from a 1-man agency. The skilled of the skilled. The business man of business men.
While greeting them, I made eye contact with CEO Baek Hansung. Very briefly.
“You guys did well.”
He turned after lightly patting Gunyoung and my shoulders.
“Then, let’s go. The people from Knet haven’t arrived yet, right?”
“Yes. Should we come with you?”
As soon as Hyunjo asked, CEO Baek Hansung shook his head.
“Nah. Leave the business to us and you guys wait for the good news.”
Then CEO Baek Hansung led the director and team 3 leader into the sushi restaurant.
It has already been 4 hours since we have been waiting for the good news. It was 1 a.m. right now.
“What kind of sushi are they eating for hours?”
Nervousness was present in Gunyoung’s voice.
We were waiting after ordering chicken in a 24-hour bar. Just in case we would have to meet with the CEO or the director, we couldn’t even take a sip of alcohol.
Hyunjo answered while piercing a piece of cold chicken.
“Do you think they were eating sushi all this time? They probably moved to the next place.”
“How do think things are going? I’m so curious I could die.”
“It’s good that they are taking their time. If the talk wasn’t going well, they would have already ended.”
The two of them were checking the time while shaking their legs. The only one who was quiet at the table was me. I was in thought. Continuously for 4 hours, continuously thinking.
What exactly did I see?
When I first saw it in the morning, I thought it was just a dream, but there was no way that was true. I definitely saw it when I was awake with my eyes open while standing and I woke up in the same state. If it was narcolepsy, then I would have already had my skull split open on the washroom tiles. So it definitely wasn’t a dream.
