Alexei wanted nothing more than to rip Tae-Sung apart limb by limb, but he calmed down before calling again. He knew fighting would only result in losses, so negotiating a favorable outcome was far more beneficial than picking a fight.0

— What is it? It’s chest day today, so I’m busy. Don’t you know that Monday is bench press day in Korea?2

Alexei could not help but scowl at the absurd response. ‘Do Koreans have a tradition of focusing their workout routines on a specific body part on certain days of the week?’0

As a Russian, Alexei had no knowledge of Korean gym culture, so he had a hard time telling whether Tae-Sung was joking or not. Still, he decided to play it safe and apologize regardless.0

“I apologize. I didn’t realize it was such an important day. I hope your chest workout goes well.”0

— T-Thanks… Pfft! Hehehe!0

“...?”0

— Anyway, why are you calling?0

“I’ll offer you fifteen percent.”0

— Ninety percent.0

“What?!” Alexei could not believe his ears.0

Asking for ninety percent was in no way a negotiation. It was plain daylight robbery.1

Why? 0

It was all because ninety percent was essentially demanding the entire thing!0

“Han Tae-Sung! Are you kidding me?! Ninety percent?! That’s no negotiation! If you had asked for fifty percent, at least I could have considered it!”0

— And now you...0
