Absolute Advantage - Chapter 45.1

Li Yu-yen stared blankly at the smile and turned his head hastily. His heart leaped at the sudden compliment.

In fact, Bora, who had no thoughts, approached Li Yuyen’s side and pointed to the hallway.

“Then shall we go?”

“Yes?”

Isn’t this the CEO’s office?

Li Yu-yen thought, looking alternately at the door by the desk and the hallway. Li Yu-yen followed Bora again this time.

“Sit comfortably here.”

“……Oh, yes.”

Bora tapped on the leather sofa in the center of the room. Li Yu-yen sat on the sofa and looked around carefully. The atmosphere was cluttered with small boxes piled up in a small space.

It looks like a drawing room because there is a sofa and a coffee table, but is it okay to be so shabby? Li Yu-yen stared at the coffee table with squinting eyes.

In fact, this was not a drawing room but a room used as a warehouse and a multipurpose room. Without knowing it, Li Yu-yen kept looking around like a lost child.

“Oh, my”

Then Bora put a box down on the table. The box was packed with A4 paper, and Bora also took out the files and spread them out next to the table.

What is this?

“If you look up here, the date is written on it, right? You can put it in the file for each month. And you only need to check if the signature of the CEO below is entered correctly!”

Bora took out a piece of paper and explained it to him individually.

“Oh, you must be bored, so I’ll prepare some snacks for you. What would you like to drink? We have coffee and tea.”

“……Coffee.”

“Do you want something warm or cold?”

“I’d like something hot, please.”

“Yes!”

Bora answered gently and disappeared outside. Left alone, Li Yu-yen blinked at the air.

Did he really just go to work like this?

He thought it would be over if he returned after pretending to bring them flowers or snacks.…. Li Yu-yen stared blankly at the file in front of him.

“Hehehe~.”

Bora hummed in the pantry. While making coffee, she put the cookies received as a gift on the plate.

“It looks delicious. No, I’ll give it to the guest first!”

Bora tried to put a cookie in her mouth but turned her head.

By the way, she was a little surprised because she didn’t expect him to wear a suit. Do you have an interview after the volunteer work?

Then, she remembered Hae-won belatedly. Bora left the pantry quickly and knocked on the door of the CEO room next to her.

“CEO~! I’m making coffee for the guest. Should I prepare a cup of coffee for you? He even brought cookies for us to eat, and it’s from a really famous store. Hehe.”

Bora poked her head out through the door of the CEO’s office and laughed.

Haewon stopped what she was doing and tried to answer.

“Volunteer work, you mean?”

She asked back with a slightly startled look.

“Yes, he arrived a little early. What’s wrong with you?”

“Wasn’t the volunteer work supposed to come tomorrow?”

Hae-won asked back with a tilt.

“Hold on, let me check!”

Bora, who hardened her expression, quickly returned to the desk and checked the scheduler.

It was as Hae-won said. The day when volunteer were supposed to come was tomorrow, not today.

“Did you mistake the date?”

Well, it didn’t matter much today or tomorrow, but she felt somehow uncomfortable. At that time, Hae-won asked loudly in the office.

“Yes, Bora. Adam said he’d send something through his secretary. Hasn’t it arrived yet?”

“U-uh, your fiancé’s…… The secretary?”

Bora rolled her eyes and grabbed her head with her hands.

Oh, my God. So she put the guy in the warehouse and the utility room……?

Bora staggered and stood on the floor of the office door.

“CEO…”

“What’s wrong Bo-ra?”

“I’m sorry. I made a huge mistake.”

Bora was appalled when she returned to the warehouse.

“H-have you already done this much?”

“Yes, it’s a small amount. Is there anything else I can do?”

“Oh…….”

When Bora returned with Haewon, the documents in the box were reduced by half. As Bora stood with her pale face, Li Yuyen wondered what he had done wrong.

“I’m sorry. A student from the university is supposed to come for service tomorrow, but my secretary must have been mistaken.”

“I’m sorry!”

As Hae-won lowered her head, Bora quickly followed her and bent her upper body.

Student, volunteer.

Words floated in Li Yuyen’s head.

‘It’s in front of the main street opposite the college, right?’

On top of that, the situation was only adequately understood when the conversation that was somewhat out of focus with Bora was combined.

No wonder she started talking about the college all of a sudden.
