Real Man-Chapter 496:
Chapter 496:
Gong Jinhan, who was already drunk, shouted.
“Ooh! Second round! Second round!”
“Let’s go to the second round. Yeah!”
Some of the people next to him also responded to the alcohol.
Factory Manager Ahn Honggu was boiling inside, but he held back for now.
“Okay. Then let’s wrap up the first round here.”
“Yes. As promised, I’ll ask you to pay for the drinks.”
Yoo-hyun smiled and whispered.
“…”
Factory Manager Ahn Honggu, who received the bill, was speechless at the huge amount.
He ran out of the welfare budget and had to pay with his personal card.
When he came out, the team members who were crowded at the entrance bowed and greeted him.
“Factory Manager, thank you for the meal!”
It was supposed to be a grateful word, but why did he feel so choked up?
Factory Manager Ahn Honggu felt that if he opened his mouth now, he would say something bad, so he answered by slightly raising his palm.
Then he approached Yoo-hyun, who was with Team Leader Lee Seongryeol.
Next to him was Secretary Bae Hyoju, who was in charge of production management, which was currently vacant.
“Send the employees with the employees, and you come with me and this young secretary…”
As Factory Manager Ahn Honggu tried to drag Secretary Bae Hyoju by the wrist, Yoo-hyun grabbed his hand first.
“Factory Manager, thank you for your attention today.”
“Yeah. So let’s go to the second round with us…”
“How about we all cheer together for the second round?”
Yoo-hyun, who stole the timing again, said, and Deputy Gong Jinhan enthusiastically agreed.
“Karaoke!”
“Karaoke! Karaoke!”
The drunken people who followed him shook their shoulders excitedly.
Yoo-hyun had sent the people who wanted to go home after the first round, and they were the ones who remained.
They were in a good mood and didn’t care at all that Factory Manager Ahn Honggu hadn’t eaten.
Factory Manager Ahn Honggu was so dumbfounded that he muttered to himself.
“Karaoke without eating…”
“The team members want that, so there’s nothing we can do. Let’s go together?”
“No, I have a headache.”
It was not a lie, Factory Manager Ahn Honggu felt that if he went to karaoke with them, he would collapse with a backache.
“Then I’m sorry to say goodbye here.”
Yoo-hyun, who ignored his words, called Team Leader Lee Seongryeol with a serious expression.
“Team Leader Lee, come here for a moment.”
“Yes, Factory Manager.”
Then he whispered as if he had a secret to tell.
“When you go to karaoke, have this team leader order Hyoju to…”
“Yes. I’ll have Yun Junwoo take pictures and secure them.”
Yoo-hyun was gone by then.
“This kid is really.”
Factory Manager Ahn Honggu, who realized that fact belatedly, grabbed the back of his neck.
It was impossible not to get along with them, eating delicious food, drinking a lot of alcohol, singing and having fun like crazy.
That was also true for Yoo-hyun.
Yoo-hyun, who grabbed the microphone at the karaoke, enjoyed the party, feeling the old team atmosphere for the first time in a long time.
“I can’t let you go even if I die~ How can I let you go~”
He spat out a heartfelt voice, thinking of Jeong Da-hye, and Deputy Gong Jinhan waved his arms and responded.
He lip-synced with a tearful expression, and the employees next to him also joined in.
The waves made by the people’s arms swayed in the karaoke room.
After the climax, Deputy Gong Jinhan, who seemed to be drunk, gave a thumbs up.
“Manager, you’re awesome.”
“Hahaha!”
The employees laughed, looking at his expression as if he was very impressed.
He was a cute friend, so Yoo-hyun also chuckled.
Thanks to him, the atmosphere was heated up with just one ballad.
“…”
In such an atmosphere, Secretary Bae Hyoju, who was sitting in the corner, looked very embarrassed.
She was so scared that her legs were shaking.
Yoo-hyun guessed what the situation was, but he enjoyed the atmosphere until Team Leader Lee Seongryeol and Yun Junwoo, who had gone out, came back.
A few songs passed.
“Jump! Right now! Change 180 degrees and go crazy from now on!”
Deputy Gong Jinhan started to jump like crazy, followed by the drunken employees.
They were all in a good mood, and Secretary Bae Hyoju, who was overwhelmed, covered her mouth with her hand and ran out.
Yoo-hyun left the chaotic atmosphere behind and followed her.
Squeak.
He opened the door and went out, and Yoo-hyun looked out through the window between the second and first floors.
He saw Team Leader Lee Seongryeol shouting and Yun Junwoo shaking his head.
Their conflict was revealed by Bae Hyoju.
Team Leader Lee Seongryeol tried to catch her, but Bae Hyoju ran away without looking back.
Yun Junwoo followed her, and Team Leader Lee Seongryeol took out his phone, embarrassed.
“I can tell what’s going on without looking.”
Yoo-hyun muttered and ran in the direction where Yun Junwoo was, while Team Leader Lee Seongryeol was on the phone.
Yoo-hyun met Yun Junwoo again at a bench in an alley not far from the karaoke.
He stopped by a convenience store in front of the bench and handed a honey tea to Yun Junwoo, who was sitting with his head down.
“Drink this.”
Swoosh.
He took the can without a word and looked at Yoo-hyun, surprised.
“Huh. Man, Manager.”
“I thought you might have a stomach ache, so I prepared something cold, but I don’t know if it’s okay.”
“…”
Yun Junwoo blinked his eyes at the incomprehensible question.
Yoo-hyun smiled and pointed to the can in his hand.
“Should I open it for you?”
“No. I’ll drink it well.”
He put down the camera around his neck and opened the can.
Click.
Then he drank it all at once, as if his stomach was burning.
Yoo-hyun looked at Yun Junwoo, who had a complicated expression, and asked bluntly.
“Hyoju, your contract is over, right?”
There was no need to hear the answer.
He looked at him with wide eyes and Yoo-hyun threw a meaningful word at him.
“You’re investigating the factory manager’s background to extend your contract.”
“H-how did you know that…”
“Don’t push yourself too hard. You might get fired too, Manager Yun.”
“I don’t care if I get fired, as long as I can save Hyoju.”
Was it because he was drunk? Or was he sincere?

It was touching to see his devotion, but it was bound to backfire if he went overboard.
Yoo-hyun got up from his seat and looked at him with a warning.
“You might end up hurting Hyoju like today. Don’t mess with her.”
“Then what do you want me to do? Just sit still?”
He asked with a surge of emotion, and Yoo-hyun winked at him.
“This is something that an expert should handle. Just wait and see.”
“…”
Yoo-hyun left behind Yun Junwoo, who was dumbfounded.
He had checked the variable, and it was time to wrap up the work.
From the next day, Yoo-hyun started working at the production management team.
He had told Team Leader Lee Seongryeol yesterday, so there was already a place prepared for him in the corner.
He cleared the tables on both sides for his convenience, and even put up a partition.
He didn’t have to do this much, but there was no reason not to accept what he was given.
Deputy Gong Jinhan came up to Yoo-hyun, who was sitting in his seat, and greeted him.
“Oh, hello.”
“You can speak casually.”
Even if Yoo-hyun told him to speak casually, he couldn’t.
Deputy Gong Jinhan bowed very politely.
“No. I was very rude yesterday.”
“It’s okay. If you want to eat something delicious, just let me know. The factory manager has a lot of money.”
“Yes. Th-thank you.”
He left an awkward thank you and carefully passed by Yoo-hyun.
Not only Deputy Gong Jinhan, but also other people were like that.
They didn’t seem to have a strong aversion to Yoo-hyun, but they felt a wall after sobering up and returning to reality.
It was also the wall of the group strategy room, which was in charge of auditing.
Yoo-hyun didn’t think much of it, as he had expected.
“Time will solve it.”
Even if the relationship improvement was delayed, Yoo-hyun could move them by himself.
It was enough that he naturally joined the team.
A man approached Yoo-hyun.
He had a big face and a naive impression, and he spoke in a stiff voice.
“Can I talk to you for a moment?”
“Sure.”
There was no reason to avoid him, so Yoo-hyun got up right away.
Manager Yun Junwoo walked ahead, and Yoo-hyun followed him.
Half of the fourth floor of Factory A was empty because of the suspended interior work.
It was bleak, and there were only two chairs and a table in the meeting room.
Yoo-hyun faced Yun Junwoo there.
Yun Junwoo cut off the front and back words and took out a document envelope.
“This will help you.”
Swoosh.
Yoo-hyun took the envelope and pulled out the photos inside.
From the scene of Executive Director Choo Jeonghwan and Union Chairman Jang Seokjun secretly meeting, to the scene of them entering an entertainment establishment with a smile.
The secret meeting between the management and the union leader was vividly captured.
After checking the last picture, Yoo-hyun put the photos back in the document envelope.
“Take it back. I’ll pretend I didn’t see it.”
“Didn’t you want to catch these bastards?”
“I don’t need this. Don’t get in the way.”
“I’m worried about you, so it’s okay.”
“It’s bothering me.”
Yoo-hyun waved his hand, but Yun Junwoo, who had made up his mind, did not look back.
“Just tell me what to do. I’ll do anything. Please give me a chance to help.”
Yoo-hyun looked at Yun Junwoo, who bowed his head, and chuckled.
“Do you really mean anything?”
“Yes. I’ll even take off my clothes if I can help Hyoju.”
“Why would you take off your clothes, Manager?”
“Please take it as my will.”
He made a serious expression, looking at Yoo-hyun, who was dumbfounded.
He was definitely a stubborn man.
It was worth trusting him once, so Yoo-hyun smiled.
“I have something I want to ask you.”
“What is it?”
“Well, it’s…”
Yoo-hyun told him what he had in mind, and Yun Junwoo nodded.
There was a spark in his round eyes, which gave a naive impression.
Regardless of Yun Junwoo’s determination, Yoo-hyun needed to reassure the opponent who was desperate to catch his weakness.
He set the payment date a little earlier for that reason.
Yoo-hyun asked Union Chairman Jang Seokjun, who faced him.
“You have to keep this a secret. I can’t back out once I pay this money.”
“Of course. That’s what I wanted to say to you first.”
Executive Director Choo Jeonghwan interrupted, as if he was taking care of Yoo-hyun.
“Manager Han, just make a down payment for now. Don’t you have to check if the work is going well before paying?”
“You’re so thorough, Director.”
“You helped me so much that the work was solved so easily. This is the least I can do.”
It sounded like he was looking out for Yoo-hyun, but it wasn’t.
By spending money on a ghost company, Yoo-hyun was no different from illegally using the company’s funds.
It was not a big deal for the group strategy room to spend that much money, but it was a different story if the details were revealed.
If Yoo-hyun made a fuss later, he could use this as an excuse to extort money from him.
What if something went wrong?
He could blame it all on Yoo-hyun, who paid the money.
It was a good situation in many ways, and Executive Director Choo Jeonghwan’s mouth curled up.
Yoo-hyun pretended not to know and opened his mouth with an innocent expression.
“Thank you. Then let’s start with the contract.” fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
“Yes. Let’s do that. I’ll prepare it right away.”
Union Chairman Jang Seokjun got up and brought the documents.
The two men were talking while facing each other.
Executive Director Choo Jeonghwan quietly went out with his phone in his hand.
Clank.
“I have to prepare to get rid of him once I catch his weakness.”
He smiled wickedly and lifted his phone.
On the screen was the number of Team Leader Bae Jaechan of the group strategy room, whom he had called a while ago.
