Ju Yeong-Gi performed an over-the-top greeting to Kang Jin-Ho. “Aigooo~! Dear President! So you've decided to grace us with your presence today~!”

Kang Jin-Ho's cheeks twitched. It had to be some kind of innate talent to contain so much criticism in one's glare, like how Ju Yeong-Gi was doing right now!

While maintaining the OTT expression, Ju Yeong-Gi bowed his head deeply. “While you were away, good sir, we did our absolute best to ensure our store would not have to close its doors.”

“I'm sorry...”

“Eiii~, don't say that, Mister President! If you can't be bothered to come to work, it's up to us, the poor workers, to work our asses off to meet the revenue target, sir! If the store can't function without you around, that's the fault of us, the poor workers, isn't it, sir?!”

Park Yu-Min joined in as well, and he addressed Kang Jin-Ho in a pitiful apologetic voice. “I'm really sorry, Jin-Ho. Yeong-Gi, me, and the rest of the kids did our best, but the revenue fell by more than half. We really did try our best, you know...”

After seeing how depressed Park Yu-Min looked, the thing buried deep within Kang Jin-Ho's psyche, his conscience, started to prick him mercilessly. Kang Jin-Ho sighed and muttered apologetically, “I'll inform you guys next time when I need to take a day off.”

He needed a day to cool off his boiling head and heart. He did call and say he was taking a day off, but Ju Yeong-Gi seemed quite cross with the fact that Kang Jin-Ho suddenly decided not to come to work for no reason whatsoever.

It wasn't...
