Chapter 294 (1/2)
The sun was still up outside. Students were probably studying with dreams of getting into a good university, while salarymen were probably wrestling with work while waiting for their salary day. It was 4 p.m. Many people should be wrestling with the world, but here, it was the opposite.
“It does feel good to play like this from time to time! It reminds me of my younger days, good!”
Team leader Han clapped with the tambourines to the president who was shaking his ass in a disturbing way. He felt pathetic for having to smile and laugh for someone over fifty doing such immature actions, but that only lasted a moment. He put the tie that the president took off and put it around his head like a headband before swinging his head round and round.
“Now that’s some good spin!”
“I used to learn samul nori when I was young, so I’m good at spinning the tail of the sangmo.”
He flattered the president endlessly. The president laughed heartily with the mic in hand and sang a trot song that was way past its date, and team leader Han clapped according to the beat.
“Here, receive one from me.”
“Yes, sir.”
“You too, girls,” he spoke to the girls who were sitting on the sofa.
The ladies with revealing clothing accepted a glass immediately with joy. That bottle of vodka cost 1.2 million won per bottle. The president just drank it from the bottle as though it didn’t matter to him.
“President, let’s do a love shot.”
“A love shot?”
“Yes.”
A girl who looked to be in her early twenties grabbed his arm in an attempt to grab attention. When she did, the other girls all threw away the vodka into the bin under the table. Team leader Han saw that scene, but did not say anything. Just like how he bowed his head to the president in order for him to live, they were throwing away the vodka for the same reason. There was a sort of sympathy between the vodka that was being thrown away and the gaze that looked over it. After waving his hand at the girl that winked at him, team leader Han approached the president.
“President. Are you okay?”
“I might have drank too much. I’m feeling a little tipsy.”
“Please take this.”
He offered him a drink to ease the hangover. The president gladly received it and started drinking it.
“It feels good to play with the young ones once in a while. I should do this more often.”
“Oh my, you’re no more than a youth at your age. You should try out more things.”
“You think?”
The president giggled and reached his hand into the cleavage of the college girl. The college girl acted coquettish and stuck her body to him. It seems that the president seemed to have taken a liking to that girl. Team leader Han left the room and called the manager hostess here.
“Who wants them?”
“The president of one of YM’s subsidiaries.”
“Looks like I can’t say no. I’ll book a hotel right next to this place so take them there. The uncle there will sort things out.”
“Thanks.”
Team leader Han nodded before returning to the room. In the short time he wasn’t here, the president had already stripped the college girl of her one piece dress and was burying his face into her chest. The girls sitting next to them all looked at him. Team leader Han quietly whispered to them that they could leave.
“President, I booked a room for you. Please let me guide the way.”
“A room?”
“Yes.”
“Hey, hey. Team leader Han. I’m not someone that rolls around anywhere. What happens if some flies decide to come my way while I play with this bumpkin?”
The college girl in his bosom flinched when she heard the word bumpkin, but she soon smiled and just acted cute, saying, ‘oppa, that’s going a little too far’. Team leader Han clasped his hands and just stood there silently since the president just sat there while fondling the girl’s breasts, seemingly not having any intention to stand up.
“Team leader Han.”
“Yes, sir.”
“Give me a rubber. I’ll just do it here.”
Team leader Han smiled bitterly. He left the room after telling the president that he would be right back. The manager hostess gave permission after hearing the circumstances.
“You know we don’t do this kind of service, right?”
“I apologize.”
“I’ll have you pay double for the room, just so you know.”
“Well, the old dude inside is the one paying.”
Team leader Han went into the room with the condom that the manager hostess gave him. The college girl wearing only underwear and the president with his lower half revealed were entangled with each other. Seeing that the president was trying so obstinately to pull down her underwear, team leader Han passed the condom directly to his hands.
“Then I’ll take my leave.”
“Oh my, team leader Han. You do a clean job.”
“Haha. Thank you.”
Team leader Han looked at the college girl before he left. She had a slightly annoyed face, but just left her body to the president as she knew that the middle aged man wasn’t ordinary.
Team leader Han quietly closed the door before leaving. As the room had perfect sound isolation, nothing could be heard from the outside. After looking at the dark corridor for a while, team leader Han just sighed and walked out towards the entrance.
“Team leader Han.”
The president of his company was there.
“Sir, did you really have to run away by yourself?”
“There’s no need for both of us to die, is there?”
The two were able to get an empty room per the manager hostess’s kindness. After drinking some cold water, team leader Han felt better.
“What happened to him?”
“He must be shaking his ass right about now.”
“They say the rich are even worse than the poor, urgh. What about the ad?”
“He’s drunk, so I can’t be entirely sure, but I did get the answer that ‘he’ll consider it’.”
“That’s good then.”
Team leader Han chewed on some nuts in front of him. He felt better when he considered the crushed bits as the president from the advertiser company.
“Sir, is there really a need for us to do this? He might be the president of a YM subsidiary, but still. Let’s leave aside Joohyun, since we don’t know what she’ll do to him if he tries to do that to her, but do we really need to suck up to him that much? We’re Yellow Star, too.”
There were three colossal corporations in South Korea. DK, SC and YM. The president of one of their subsidiaries had shown up, so it was understandable that they were giving him good treatment. However, Yellow Star was also one of the top 3 entertainment companies in Korea.
“Team leader Han. I know that you have pride in your work, but we’re still small. They’re on KOSPI, while we’re on KOSDAQ. Do you know how many times their aggregate market price is compared to us?”
“...Can I not even complain?”
“I can see that you’re riled up due to all that alcohol in your blood, but watch your words. And also, we’re not sucking up to him because he’s the president of one of YM’s subsidiaries.”
“Then why?”
“That man is the son-in-law of The Daily Sunghwa.”
“...Goddammit.”
