Chapter 311 – Episode 311

Will I become this lighter when I get older?

… As I was walking absent-mindedly, thinking nonsense like this, Han Se-ho spoke to me again.

“Look, you’re not doing well at the company you’re currently working for, and you’re changing jobs… No, he was preparing for a new job. What do you think about that?”

Even as I was breathing in the cool mountain air, I almost sighed inadvertently.

As I said before, I was not at all uncomfortable with Han Se-ryong riding on my back and hitting the top of my head with his cane. It’s not even inconvenient.

I don’t even understand this much, and I’m not going to report Han Se-ryong to the police for assault.

Rather, Han Se-ho was uncomfortable and uncomfortable.

Why is this person acting like this today? Aside from the fact that it was their first time meeting, they introduced themselves to each other, and he was the vice president of the Hanban Group. A person of this caliber would appear to me in a low-key manner? I didn’t feel good at all.

Rather, it’s uncomfortable?

‘He even says with his own mouth that I am a jobseeker.’

I am the chairman of Hanban Group, or someone who can stand shoulder to shoulder with Han Se-ho. Or, if it was someone a little lower than that, I could understand being polite and polite.

Or maybe it’s someone like Oh Hanam who is a sociopath and a safety-first person who is usually very polite to homeless people.

But, that’s not it either.

“We must do it. For the future ahead. And for the women who trust me and like me.”

Even though it was uncomfortable, I had no choice but to give an answer.

The funny thing is, after giving the answer, my heart becomes more frustrated. Because I had to do what I said, at least for my women.

Honestly, if I were alone, I would at least make excuses when I fail.

Now I didn’t even have time to think about when I failed.

It’s a busy situation, but if I fail here… It was something I really didn’t want to imagine. It is also something that should never happen.

“I know that you have good abilities, but luck is also important in this world.”

“Well, I’ve known for a long time that luck is important.”

However, when it comes to ‘luck’, I wonder if there is anyone in this world who is luckier than I.

Some people may have different opinions from me, but I thought it was much more fortunate that the quest system was given to me than being born as a handsome man who can spend money extravagantly.

What would you do if you had 1 trillion in assets? What would you do if you had the most handsome face in the world?

Would it be possible to increase my stamina as much as I do with that money? How about physical strength? Even if I hired 10 million dedicated trainers, they wouldn’t be able to match my physical strength?

No matter what, the quest was a morale.

“It means that there is a chance that your luck may not be so good that you will not get the job you want no matter how well you prepare.”

It’s not an unlikely story, though.

I hadn’t even tried it yet, but it was true that I felt a little bad because they were already talking about failure. I nodded, trying hard to hide my discomfort.

“That should be possible, right?”

“How about getting some insurance just in case something like that happens?”

“Insurance… Well, that would be good. By the way, what insurance?”

“In any case, you are rejected from the company you wanted to join. At that time, I tried working as a member of Hanban Group.”

“… Me?”

I was dumbfounded because it was such a sudden proposal.

Because even Han Se-ryong didn’t make such a suggestion to me. In some ways, he is a person who has less time than Han Se-ho, and he is a person who wants to bring back the talented person named Han Ae-bom more than anyone else.
Han Se-ryong told me that I was a bastard with no qualifications and told me to gain experience first. But, that son of a man is openly telling me to come in by parachute?

It sounds like a good offer to me. Why do I feel so bad?

That’s because I’m not even an honest person.

“Yes, just think of it as insurance. It would be best if you could get a job at the company you want and be able to do what you want. There has to be a chance that it’s not.”

In a moment, I will make it like that.

… If I heard that, am I overdoing it?

“Actually, Hanban Group has all the occupations you want, but it can’t be said to be the top in the industry. It must be a little disappointing, right?”

“Well, rather than that… What can I say? “I have my own reasons.”

I can’t tell others because it’s embarrassing.

Rather than intentionally joining a declining company and turning a crisis into an opportunity, I just want to stand out in the eyes of others.

… You can’t say that.

“Anyway, if you can’t achieve what you want, join the Hanban Group. What is it like? I want to hear a clear answer. “I don’t think it’s a bad offer for you at all.”

“…”

Before I could open my mouth as Han Se-ho forced me to answer, a small, frustrated voice came from behind me. It’s so quiet that Han Se-ho can’t hear it.

“You look like an idiot.”

I answered calmly, pretending not to hear.

“Well, if I have the chance, I will do that. Father… No, what the vice president said was not wrong.”

When I nod, Han Se-ho’s face brightens.

“Hmm, yes. It won’t be bad for you either. Because Hanban Group is still the workplace everyone wants. And, you can just call me father. “Aren’t you going to marry Aebom anyway?”

“…”

It’s really burdensome.

Of all the women’s families I’ve met so far, Han Se-ho was the most burdensome. For the first time, I sympathized with the feelings of someone who felt uncomfortable with their lover’s family. If this happens, I’ll be really stressed.

Even though I am dull.

It was even more so because I wasn’t completely clueless.

“By the way, father.”

“Okay, something?”

“I feel that way especially today when I look at my father.”

“… ?”

“It’s like, I’m only going to marry Aebom. No. “The polygamy that I dream of achieving will inevitably fail.”

I can tell that I hit the nail on the head just by seeing Han Se-ho keep his mouth shut at my words.

Meanwhile, a pleasant sound of laughter comes from my back.

“The little guy’s son has grown up a lot. I’ve grown a lot. Well, since he was such an asshole, is it strange that he didn’t grow up? “What kind of people are all the people I’ve met so far?”

Is it a compliment or an insult?

He tilted his head in bewilderment, and Han Se-ho, who had been speechless for a moment, opened his mouth again.

“Before I say anything, I respect your dreams and will to the extent possible.”

You don’t have to preface it like that.

I’m not saying that the beginning is necessarily bad, but when I listen to that beginning now, I don’t feel like it’s respected at all, unlike what was said.

“But polygamy… To put it bluntly, it’s not something you can do just because you have money. “It is the same even if Hanban Group pours all its assets into it, or even if Ilha Group helps in both material and spiritual ways.”

“…”

“Don’t you honestly think that the probability of failure is much higher than the probability of success?”

What is this… It seems that Han Se-ho took his failure into consideration from the beginning and had no choice but to persuade me of his words. So, when Oh Cheol-ho appeared, and I came back after spending the night with Oh Cheol-ho, I guess he got into trouble and ended up doing this.

‘Something is different.’

That person is trying to persuade me somehow.

Rather than persuading me, Han Se-ryong and Oh Cheol-ho are just telling me their thoughts, but I am being persuaded without even realizing it.

There is a big difference. The biggest thing was the difference between whether there was a big or small reluctance to accept it.

In the case of Han Se-ho, I felt reluctant to accept it even though it didn’t seem to be wrong, while Han Se-ryong’s words seemed to be wrong, but I was strangely persuaded. If you think about it, it’s really amazing, right?

‘They’re saying the right things, but they don’t resonate with me, and Chairman Han Se-ryong says even if he says strange things, it sounds plausible.’

But, it was like that.

“I will succeed somehow. That will be the way for everyone to be happy.”

Even if it means risking my life, somehow.

Even though I expressed my determination, Han Se-ho reacted negatively to my answer.

“Yes, I know that you have great will. However, realistically speaking, it is difficult. It’s good to dream, but you’re not alone, so isn’t there a need to consider realistic issues to some extent?”

Han Se-ho’s first words make it seem like he sympathizes with me and agrees with me.

The words that came out after that were all things that denied me. Only a fool could see that. It may seem like they are contradicting each other, but they are refuting everything.

If it comes out like that, I have nothing to say. What can I say? They don’t even accept what I say anyway.

“What if I can’t achieve my dream of polygamy? I can’t live the rest of my life happily with unmarried women. The day may come when you finally have to choose one. “I’m not saying you should only look at that, but it’s better to keep the worst case scenario in mind.”

“…”

In some ways, there were parts that were consistent with what Han Ae-bom said to Oh Ha-na and Yoon Su-ah.

However, there was something fundamentally different between Han Se-ho and Han Ae-bom. No, it’s different from Oh Hanam who always thinks about what if.

Han Se-ho was realistic, but too negative.

‘Yes, it’s not wrong.’

Polygamy was clearly nothing more than an absurd and vain dream, even to me who had obtained the quest.

But what if a person doesn’t dream? What can you do if you just think negatively about everything and decide that the actual outcome will be negative?

It wasn’t Han Ae Bom and Oh Hanam.

Although both are realistic people, they tend to see the probability of a positive outcome as higher.

‘It’s sad in a different way.’

I don’t know what kind of life Han Se-ho has lived, but I think he hasn’t had an easy life. Although that person’s way of speaking made me uncomfortable, I now thought that he must have had his own reasons for it.

“My father.”

“Okay.”

“That’s a bit irresponsible.”

I said with a smile, without being rude as much as possible.

“I’ll think about it later.”

Even though I said it, it seems like an empty answer.

I liked this. This does not mean that realistic considerations will not be taken at all. However, I didn’t want to get caught up in too much negativity.

The most fundamental reason why I strive for polygamy and want to be with women…

This was especially so because it was for the happiness of my life. If you’re too negative, your life may not be unhappy, but it doesn’t seem like you’ll be very happy either.

Hehe, what an idiotic answer. And, you ugly son. “You try to be a little like this idiot.”

“Tsk,” Han Se-ryong got off my back.

“Persuading people is not that easy. But, it’s also easy.”

Look at this.

Even though Han Se-ryong is talking nonsense, there is something that strangely catches my ear. But, isn’t that really bullshit?

“It’s the same thing. “Most people are not fools, but they are also fools.”

Are you asking a riddle?

“You idiot. Do you know why there is no one on the way up this mountain?”

“Yes? “Is it because it’s a nameless mountain?”

“What nonsense? This place is proudly called Hanbansan Mountain. And no matter how unpopular a mountain it is, climbing this far and not seeing a single person is strange enough.”

Hanban Mountain?

Wait, no way… ?

“Yes, this place is all mine. No, everything from there to there is mine.”

“…”

“And, in case you somehow fail to achieve your dream. These are the things you will have if you choose Aebom. How do you feel? “Is this a bit harsh?”

I nodded blankly.

It’s so damn hard, isn’t it?

Furthermore…

“It’s the same even if you didn’t choose Aebom. “I plan to show you many things in the future.”

Han Se-ryong is laughing.

“No matter how happily you choose another woman and live a married life, won’t you at least once think, ‘I would have done that back then,’ or notice the things I showed you? It’s going to feel very strange. About the way you didn’t choose our granddaughter back then. Hehe.”

“…”

“In that sense, if you want to have it all. You can do it. You can have it all as long as you do it. So, what I’m saying is think back and achieve everything, whether it’s polygamy or anything else. Do you understand what I mean?”

[I tore it. Crazy old man.]

Huh?

Regardless of the message I briefly saw in front of me, I definitely felt it. This is what it means to persuade others.

My heart was pounding. With the determination that I must do it.
