Chapter 373 – Episode 373 Anecdotal Great Granddaughter Fool Kwak Cheol-Hee
Quite a late lunch after the meeting.
I was going to the cafeteria in the company for the hungry Ji-hee, but suddenly,
It was obvious that the chairman himself would suddenly appear and the employees would be in trouble, so he decided to go out to eat with Jihee.
Two people walking down the street holding hands like any other grandfather and granddaughter.
The difference from other people was that the relationship between the two was not simply granddaughter and grandfather, but great-grandfather and great-granddaughter. Above all, for the safety of the two of them, men in black suits were walking around together.
“Last time… Daddy…!”
Ji-hee talks about her mother, her father, etc. He brought out various words and entertained Kwak Chul-hee’s ears.
It’s a word that doesn’t affect much, but it’s just because of Jihee’s thoughts and her way of speaking, it’s just fun.
“Kellock. Kellock.”
Then then Jihee frowned and coughed.
A car just passed by that was spraying black smoke into the air.
Did he cough because of the fumes? Could there be something wrong with your body? Continuing with a worried mind ahead.
“Sup…”
Harmful substances such as fumes adversely affect Ji-hee’s health.
Things like that should disappear from the world.
She had only a few days left to live, but it seemed okay to burn and fade once more for the sake of her beloved granddaughter and great-granddaughter.
Right now… No, I have to eat with Ji-hee, so right after eating, I moved on with Ji-hee away from the road, promising to actively invest in the electric car market that is going well these days.
“Jihee. Shall we eat that?”
“Um…!”
I came out recklessly and tried to eat Ji-hee’s favorite food, but Ji-hee couldn’t choose easily.
As there is the headquarters of a conglomerate that ranks No. 1 in Korea’s business world, the surrounding area has developed greatly, and accordingly, there are many restaurants.
Is it because there are too many of them? Jihee shakes her head back and forth, wondering what to eat. I was in deep trouble.
“There is no need to rush, so choose slowly.”
Kwak Cheol-hee is conscious of the people around him and usually only goes to high-class restaurants or restaurants with rooms for lunch, but now that he is with Ji-hee, he feels like he can stop by at a regular restaurant.
So, with the intention of eating at that restaurant wherever she chose, she calmly waited for Ji-hee to choose what she wanted to eat.
Not so long ago
“Grandpa! Tonkatsu! I want to eat that tonkatsu!”
Ji-hee decides on the lunch menu after deep consideration.
“Yes. Yes. Let’s go eat pork cutlet.”
Pork cutlet that I only ate a long time ago, but recently I haven’t eaten at all.
Even now, he doesn’t particularly like pork cutlet, but Ji-hee said he wanted to eat it, and he seemed to like it, so Kwak Chul-hee thought of liking pork cutlet from now on.
“Yes. Welcome… Time, Chairman?!”
It’s not another place, it’s a tonkatsu restaurant at Cheil Group’s headquarters.
Because of this, it is impossible not to know Cheol-hee Kwak, the chairman of Cheil Group.
Most of all, I could guess who he was just by looking at the man in the suit who followed the old man and the cute child who looked like the old man’s granddaughter.
That’s why the owner of the tonkatsu restaurant was shocked and nervous.
At the same time, the customers who had eaten almost all the rice were also surprised and began to notice Kwak Cheol-hee without knowing.
“I’m going to eat pork cutlet with my lovely great-granddaughter. I’ll ask for the most delicious thing here.”
Kwak Cheol-hee immediately ordered delicious pork cutlet from the owner to suit Ji-hee’s taste.
Originally, he would have asked for the order to be correct again, saying that he said it in a general way, but it was Kwak Chul-hee who ordered it.
“Yes, yes! I see!”
The pork cutlet owner heads to the kitchen as if running away with a military discipline.
“Jihee. Where do you want to sit?”
There was no way there would be a room that was a separate room in a tonkatsu restaurant.
And, as it looks, this space seems to be everything, so he readily gave Ji-hee the choice to choose a seat.
Maybe it’s because they came out for lunch quite late, but the inside, which was crowded with customers just a few hours, no, just a few minutes ago, has a lot of empty seats, so you can sit where Ji-hee wants to go.
“Eh…! By the window! Seat by the window!”
Jihee said she wanted to sit by the window, not anywhere else.
As if sitting in the window seat had already been decided, Dodo ran and pulled out the chair and put his butt down.
Is it that good to think about eating tonkatsu next? He laughed and started shaking his legs.
“Heh heh. Was it that good?”
“Yes…! Tonkatsu! Tonkatsu is the most delicious in the world!”
Jihee shouted brightly, saying pork cutlet is her favorite food in the world.
Pork cutlet would be really delicious, but Kwak Cheol-hee couldn’t really sympathize with Ji-hee’s words because he knew a lot of foods that were much more delicious than pork cutlet.
But soon, it was clear that Ji-hee, like Kwak Cheol-hee, would experience the world’s most delicious food.
“I see. But there are still many things I haven’t eaten, so why don’t you go out to eat with this old woman?”
It was the heart of a great-grandfather who could not help but want to feed his granddaughter, and her great-granddaughter.
It didn’t matter if Ji-hee became fat or ugly because of Kwak Cheol-hee.
That’s because I want to see Jihee eating happily.
After a while
“Sashimi, Chairman. The pork cutlet you ordered is here…!”
The long-awaited tonkatsu finally came out.
“Wow! It looks delicious!”
Jihee’s eyes twinkled as she looked at the tonkatsu.
“You look better than I thought.”
More than expected.
I don’t know much about food, but this quality is only 9,000 won.
Is this why they are still doing well in business despite the high rent due to the headquarters of Cheil Group?
“Thank you for this food!”
As soon as she received it, Ji-hee immediately took up the spoon.
Thanks to the fact that they had already cut everything into bite-sized pieces, Ji-hee poked the pork cutlet in the stomach with a fork and brought it to her mouth.
Soon, she put it in her mouth and mumbled.
“Mmmm!”
The more he sipped the tonkatsu in his mouth, the more his eyes became bigger and rounder than before.
“It’s delicious…!”
Is it that delicious?
Kwak Cheol-hee came without much expectation, but like Ji-hee, he was eating very deliciously, so he had a desire to put this pork cutlet in his mouth quickly.
So, like Jihee, she stabbed the pork cutlet with a fork and brought it to her mouth.
“Mm… That’s really good.”
The taste was quite okay.
It is surprising that he boasts a taste that is not too bad even for his taste buds who are accustomed to cooking at high-end restaurants and famous chefs.
As I said before, this is only 9,000 won.
Even though I don’t usually eat like this, I felt like I would bring Jihee and eat like this sometimes.
“Grandpa! Grandpa!”
“Huh?”
“Ah!”
Ji-hee, who was eating well, suddenly called him.
What was going on, he offered his pork cutlet, saying that he wanted to feed Cheol-hee Kwak with his pork cutlet.
Seeing that, Kwak Cheol-hee’s face collapsed completely, and he was cool and charismatic, but where did he go? Only his great-granddaughter, the fool, remained.
“Yes. Yes. Ah~!”
Her great-granddaughter refuses to give her something to eat, but what kind of granddaughter can refuse it?
First of all, it wasn’t Kwak Cheol-hee, so I opened my mouth right away and put the pork cutlet Ji-hee gave me into my mouth.
The taste of tonkatsu, which had been okay until just now, felt more delicious than any famous chef cooked this time.
“Ji-hee should try it too.”
Kwak Cheol-hee’s iron rule is that if you receive something, you must give something back.
Since it was a promise to himself that he must keep even while eating pork cutlet, he offered his pork cutlet to Ji-hee, and Ji-hee received the pork cutlet with a bright face and put it in her mouth and mumbled.
Seeing her great-granddaughter start eating with her cheeks growing full, I feel like I’m already full.
“Ugh…”
As time passed, Ji-hee’s hand, which had been diligently eating away the tonkatsu, slowed significantly.
Ji-hee didn’t eat with a face that looked like she couldn’t eat anymore, and repeatedly touched it with a spoon.
“Are you full?”
“Ah… Uh… Yes… I’m full…”
I guess so.
No matter how active a child may be, he or she will never be able to eat all the amount an adult would eat.
That’s why I couldn’t finish eating the tonkatsu that was said to be delicious.
“If you can’t eat, you can stop eating. There’s no need to eat hard.”
“But… Mom said she doesn’t leave food…”
I hesitated even when Kwak Cheol-hee said that Jae-hee was playing the role of her mother.
“It’s okay since mom isn’t here right now. And it’s only for today, but it’s okay at least once. Jihee.”
“Really…?”
“Sure. Really. Isn’t it?”
“Yes, yes. Of course! Ha, ha ha!”
When Kwak Cheol-hee asked the shop owner a question, the shop owner immediately nodded vigorously and agreed.
“Umm… I’m sorry… I can’t eat…”
“No. I gave you a lot, so what?”
The store owner, who was full of tension at Ji-hee’s behavior, drew a smile on her lips without realizing it.
“Let’s go to bed. Let’s get up when we finish eating.”
She ate it all, and it looks like Jihee ate it all, but now she has to get up.
“Yes!”
Ji-hee jumps. After getting down from the chair, I took my grandfather’s hand.
Kwak Cheol-hee held Ji-hee’s hand tightly as if he would never let go of it and left the store, and rumors spread quickly about the tonkatsu restaurant the two stopped by for lunch.
It is said that it is pork cutlet that the chairman of Cheil Group and his great-granddaughter fell in love with after eating it.
