Chapter 71: The Most I (9)
TL: emptycube / ED: Isleidir
If someone was to ask me, “When were you the craziest?” I could reply in a heartbeat
Right now
I was thinking about calling CEO Baek Hansung as soon as the tea and left his office I wanted to do whatever I could
When I resolved htly held my phone, my phone in my hand vibrated
It was the team 3 leader As soon as I answered the phone, he abruptly said
-You, come up to the CEO’s office immediately
This wasthe CEO’s office
However, I was the most nervous this time I felt like I was on tenterhooks The blinds were closed inside the office,the shadows come down heavily
Although the teaaze was fixed on CEO Baek Hansung
I felt this every time I saw him, but he was difficult to talk to
I felt this even though he wasn’t hostile or overbearing I had never been told I was timid wherever I went, but whensucked out ofcrushed
After greeting the said,
“This is the first tiht?”
“Ah, yes”
My cheeks burned The teae look from the side His face seemed to ask if I had talked with the CEO on the phone
“You guessed well that time”
CEO Baek Hansung said with an odd smile
The director added,
“Yeah, you really did choose well Although Merh the draht now, Cat Guardian Ghost is slowly crawling its way up, spreading through word of mouth”
The director gavetea They were all good news They really were great news, but while I nodded ht keptits way in my mind
Just as I glanced at CEO Baek Hansung to look for an opportunity, he suddenly went straight to the point
“I heard you wanted to go for double title tracks for Neptune’s next album?”
He stared at ain,
“I heard you passionately pushed the song a member made?”
“Yes”
“Why?”
That was because it was a song that was aluaranteed success
There was no way I could say that I brought out what I had prepared to persuade the teaain
When I looked at CEO Baek Hansung when I finished talking, he was still looking at me However, his expression was different He had previously been s pleasantly, but now, he was calm
As if he found this boring
Since his appearance was co, ly stiffened
He tilted his head
“Hmm And?”
What do you mean ‘and’?
When I had already told you everything I could?
“Any other reason?”
“Pardon?”
“I understand what youanyone can say I somehow feel like you have another reason why you are pushi+ng that song A?”
A chill went down the back of my neck
CEO Baek Hansung leaned forward His eyes were still fixated onmy mind
I sed dryly IDon’t tell me he truly thinks I have some supernatural ability?
Of course, I had acted suspiciously a few ti good luck, senses, or a discerning eye
Even the employees who had looked forsince they were curious To the to a 3000-won[1] tarot stall on the streets
Although I wasn’t sure what the ‘other reason’ CEO Baek Hansung was thinking of was, I would never tell him the truth It would be a problem if he believed me and a problem if he didn’t
“There are no other reasons besides the reasons I’ve told you”
“There aren’t any?”
“Yes There aren’t”
da up the option I had due to the Son Chaeyoung incident last tiain…
“Then that’s fine”
What?
“Let’s go with double title tracks for this album”
It felt like a taut string had suddenly beco furiously, became blank as my head jolted up
What was this?
It wasn’t only me as surprised, even the teah I was a child walking on thin ice, widened his eyes The director was also taken aback
The only one who kept his co
With a serious voice, he said,
“I’ll trust you once more”
Kim Hyunjo and the traitor seemed to be at loss for words
After opening and closing his mouth a few times, Kim Hyunjo finally spoke
“I’ll trust you? The CEO said that?”
“That’s what I’”
The team 3 leader said, astonished, as he looked at me
“Lucky Char he wanted to say in front of the CEO and the director Now, really, I don’t knohere he got his confidence from but he didn’t look even a bit nervous”
It was coh
“Hyunjo, are kids these days all like hi like that?”
“He’s just crazy I only got to look around the sixth floor after working for over a year Gunyoung, have you talked with the CEO before?”
“… No”
“Yeah, this is normal”
I secretly calmed my heart amidst their heated looks
To be honest, CEO Baek Hansung’s face still lingered in my head
His voice that sio with double title tracks…
I had spent all night agonizing over it, and even when I stuck next to the tea’s words
When would I be able to climb up to that level?
Just when?
When I looked up, the top looked distant, but I was relieved right now It felt like so down on me had dropped since, in the end, the train, that had broken away fro, had now returned to its original path
A s on my lips
“Don’t suy”
With a dumbfounded expression, Kim Hyunjo shook his head
The team 3 leader said,
“Lucky Charm, you should directly tell Taehee the news since this is the sa what shouldn’t have happened by the collar and lifting it up”
“Yes, understood”
“Hey, but how…”
The team 3 leader scratched the back of his disheveled hair before cautiously saying,
“How can you push for such things so confidently? What are you going to do if it fails?”
“Then he’s screwed”
Ki his neck with his hand before patting my shoulder
“Well, if you get fired, I’ll introduce you to other companies Since you now have 3 et a job”
He was being serious 100 serious!
Shaking his head side to side, Kim Hyunjo left with the team 3 leader Now only the traitor and I remained
“Hey”
The traitor said,
“Do you have so with Taehee?”
“What?”
Just what nonsense was this now?
“It looked like you would focus on the acting side, and I thought that the production of their album was beyond pretty much outside your- Ah, sorry”
He gri himself
“You didn’t look like you were interested in it Instead, this was my area of interest That’s why I can’t understand why you are pushi+ng so hard at all Like the team leader said, all the contributions you accuht fade if this fails Well, that’s why I thought thereup with you and Taehee”
“What would there be? Taehee’s song was good, and that’s why I felt it was a waste tobetween you and Simon Lee?”
“… No way there is”
Atwords, the traitor smiled as he shook his head
I felt this when I talked with hi would be a hit Which hy he wanted to push for an exclusive title track But why did he push for Taehee’s song in the future?
Was it because he secretly liked her song better?
Orwas in my hands?
The traitor said,
“If it’s like this, then it’s like we brought a song each”
“I guess”
“Although what’s is to do well and make this album a success, still, do you want to s turned out this way?”
To others, this ht seem like a normal conversation However, I could see it withapart and collapsing It looked like it would break apart any moment
I readily nodded my head
“A bet seems nice”
That night, I told Lee Taehee the news in front of her residence door
Lee Taehee was at loss for words for a while then showed off a perplexed expression that I was seeing for the first tily in disbelief, I too answered her slowly every time
“title…”
She tried her best to control her expression before glancing towards the living room
The other girls were looking in our direction as if they were dying to hear ere talking about The only one as calht, but only her body was still while her head and neck gradually leaned closer towards us like the Leaning Tower of Pisa
“One second”
Lee Taehee came out and closed the door
When she shut the door, it looked like there were earthquakes going off in Lee Songha’s eyes
“It’s really a title track?”
“Yeah, there’ll be double title tracks You’re going to be busier now that you have to record and mix”
“Oh my God”
Lee Taehee covered her face with one hand What would that do when your ears were red and your lips riggling beneath your hand? Although I expected her to be happy, her reaction was bigger than I had thought
Haha It orth going around like a crazy person
Cal her excitement after a few minutes, Lee Taehee said,
