Chapter 128: <Coconut Bank>

Every day, Kang Woosung’s accomplishments filled the news. In KYLO meetings, he was always the center of attention. The women especially flocked him.

“Haha, tell me your secret to success! It took you only a year to get to where you are now. Come on, you can tell me.”

“I just worked hard. There is no secret to it.”

Another beauty asked him, “I actually know the answer to that question. It’s the data analysis, right?”

Woosung smiled and answered, “Haha, I guess that’s the most accurate answer.”

The woman smiled brightly. “I knew it!”

“Data analysis? What kind of data did you study to get such great results?”

Another woman answered instead, “What? Do you not know how to perform data analysis? It’s statistics. You based your decisions on statistics, right?”

The beautiful woman asked him, “Haha, that’s right. At this rate, you ladies are going to know all my secrets.”

“Hahahaha.”

The women laughed at his joke flirtatiously. Woosung thought in disgust.

‘Just stop.’

This wasn’t a nightclub, yet these women rubbed themselves against him shamelessly.

One of the women whispered to him secretly, “Can you teach me about statistics in private?”

Woosung blinked. Quickly, he recovered and played the game.

“I can actually teach you something better. Are you interested?”

“Hahaha, you’re funny!”

Woosung narrowed his eyes and replied, “Haha, I think you misunderstood me. I meant different analysis techniques…”

The women laughed again.

They were surrounded by expensive whiskeys. Everyone was getting slowly drunk. One woman replied, “It’s not a bad idea.”

Another one complained in a jealous voice, “Oh my! You have no shame!”

Woosung replied, “Haha, I am happy to teach everyone, but I only teach one on one.”

One of the women patted his shoulder and said in a husky voice, “I’m ok with two on one too.”

“Hahaha, you’re so naughty!”

Woosung replied, “Haha, I have great stamina, so I can handle two on one too.”

Everyone laughed again.

Shin Semi watched from afar with a frown. She hated seeing him like this.

‘How could he say things like that to those women!’

She hated everything about this situation, yet she couldn’t look away.

Jun Taewon approached Shin Semi.

“Haha, Woosung is very popular.”

Shin Semi was so focused that she didn’t hear him. When she didn’t react, Jun Taewon frowned angrily.

He raised his voice slightly, “Leader Shin Semi?”

Finally, she turned around.

“Oh, hi.”

“What are you thinking about so seriously?”

“Oh…Just this and that…” However, she quickly turned to Woosung’s direction again.

Jun Taewon said to her in disappointment, “I thought TK had a great relationship with Nuri Finances, but I guess I was mistaken.”

“It’s not like that.”

“I asked to meet with you several times through your father, yet you refused every time…I’m not a bad guy, you know. The only reason why TK works with Nuri is because of my trust in you.”

Shin Semi sighed lightly at the mention of work. She then remembered what has happened in Sunleung recently. She could understand how he must have felt. She ignored Jun Taewon and started to walk towards Woosung, but Woosung was walking away.

Jun Taewon murmured as he looked at him, “Look at that. He is leaving with those girls.”

The group was going into the private room.

***

2 hours later.

Most members have left the meeting, but Shin Semi was still waiting anxiously. When Woosung and the women finally came out, Shin Semi quickly pretended to be doing something else.

The women said to Woosung, “Haha, we had a great time.”

“Haha, thank you for your good advice.”

“I hope we can do this again?”

“Of course.”

“Hopefully in a more private setting?”

Woosung laughed. “Haha, totally.”

They passed Shin Semi, who quickly asked pointedly, “Don’t we have something to discuss?”

The women turned around with wide eyes.

The atmosphere became tense suddenly.

The women clearly wanted to stay and see what happens, but Woosung winked at them and said with a smile.

“I will tell you later.”

“Haha, alright. See you later.”

After the women left, Woosung turned around. “What are you talking about?”

Shin Semi looked over Woosung quickly. He looked neat. His hair wasn’t messy and his suit was wrinkle-free. Shin Semi was sure nothing happened in the room.

She replied, “We were talking about pin tech last time.”

“I already got an offer from your brother. I thought that was the end of the conversation.”

“That’s different…”

“I meant to send my answer tomorrow anyway. It’s a no..”

“Pardon?”

“The deal itself was not very attractive.” Shin Semi was baffled. Woosung continued quickly. “Nuri’s offer was worse than those from Daejin or Saehan. I had no reason to accept your company’s deal.”

She had nothing to say about it. So instead, Shin Semi asked, “What did you guys do in the room? Was it fun? Do all men become like that when they become rich?”

“When I first asked you to help me get into KYLO, I told you why I wanted to join. Did you forget?”

Shin Semi remembered. She remained silent.

Woosung continued, “Women like to gossip. I needed the information. That’s all.”

“I…I see.”

“Do you have anything else to ask?” When Shin Semi didn’t say anything, Woosung turned around to leave. He added, “Then I would like to ask you a question. Why are you so interested in me?”

“Pardon?”

“You were waiting for me, right? Why?”

Shin Semi wanted to admit it.

Yes! She was waiting for him!

Instead, she answered, “T…that’s ridiculous.”

“You’re the one who is ridiculous. This is the third time you came to me. If you had no feelings for me, you wouldn’t do that.”

Shin Semi suddenly felt thirsty. She gulped down the warm whiskey on the table. Her heart was beating fast.

Woosung continued, “I am telling you because you are beginning to mix business with your personal feelings. Everyone at the meeting already noticed this too. There are numerous rumors.”

Shin Semi reddened. She has never felt this humiliated before.

What should she do?

Her brain stopped working.

“W…what kind of rumors?”

“About two of us. I am used to it, but you aren’t. You better be careful or else, it might even appear on the news.”

Shin Semi’s eyes suddenly shined. The whiskey was helping her to be bold.

She answered, “That’s fine with me.”

“…pardon?”

“A scandal with a successful businessman wouldn’t be a bad thing.”

Shin Semi’s licked her lips. She looked at Woosung with longing.
