## Chapter 358 – 358. Meeting With the Chairman
In the end, Mrs. Soo-ae also became a sow like Soo-jung, and somehow I ended up with two pairs of lewd sow mothers and daughters.
Soo-jung would take on the role of training Mrs. Soo-ae for the time being. I had been neglecting my work a bit while training her and taking care of her for the past month, so I had quite a bit of work piled up.
Using my females to make various contracts with different companies was a great thing, but it was only natural that I would have more work to do since I had taken on so much in such a short period.
Thanks to that, my reputation and image had changed to that of a very capable person, so other people kept trying to get close to me.
Working this hard was ultimately to show my abilities to the Chairman and secure the successor position, and now that I had made up my mind, I was doing my best in my work.
And today, for the first time, the Chairman had called me to his office, and I was going there with a sense of tension.
“I’ll be by your side, so please don’t worry.”
“Thank you.”
Even though Yeon-hee was by my side, I naturally became nervous as I went to meet the Chairman.
Just facing the person with the highest position in this company and the owner of a global group was quite overwhelming for an ordinary employee.
‘Come to think of it, I used someone even higher than the Chairman as a toilet this morning…’
The thought that I had been casually using my mother-in-law, the actual owner of most of the company’s stock, as a toilet this morning made me feel a little less nervous.
I had been training my mother-in-law every day, treating her like a sow, so I often forgot that she was an even higher being than the Chairman, who could control the Choi Group.
With that, I arrived in front of the Chairman’s office, my tension lowered by thinking about my mother-in-law.
“I’ve been waiting for you.”
The Chairman’s secretary saw us and immediately guided us in, and we entered the Chairman’s office.
“Excuse me, Chairman.”
“Oh, yes, I’ve been waiting.”
I put as much strength as possible into my voice to show a confident appearance and greeted him. Yeon-hee bowed lightly beside me instead of greeting him verbally.
“My ears are still fine, so you don’t have to raise your voice.”
“Ah… yes…”
I felt like I was losing points from the start, but I tried to act nonchalant and sat down.
“Well… it’s been a while since I saw you last time.”
“Yes, Chairman.”
The Chairman gave off the feeling of meeting an ordinary grandfather rather than any sense of dignity or charisma.
I had only briefly spoken to him once before when we ran into each other by chance, and this was the first time we were having a formal conversation like this.
“There have been a lot of rumors about you in the company lately.”
“Not at all, Chairman.”
“Hahaha… well, you have to be at least that good since you’re the man Yeon-ji chose… no, it’s actually a little late.”
“I… I see…”
The Chairman was evaluating me quite highly, but that only increased the pressure.
In reality, I wouldn’t have been able to achieve this much without Yeon-hee and the other females, so my own power was very weak here.
“I’ve been thinking about this since you first came to this company… do you have any intention of taking over this company?”
“Yes.”
To such a significant question, I answered with a short and concise but confident voice.
“Hahaha, you have even better eyes than last time.”
The Chairman smiled and nodded, as if pleased with my answer.
I heard from my mother-in-law that he had been in that position for a long time, but he always had the burden of having to return it because it wasn’t his.
My mother-in-law had initially intended to leave everything to the Chairman and live quietly, but the Chairman had adamantly refused, always intending to return it, which made her feel bad.
And when I answered so firmly, the Chairman smiled with relief, as if he had put down a heavy burden.
“Of course, it’s impossible to hand over the company right away, and you’ll have to show more results for at least a few years.”
“I’m prepared for that.”
“Yes, yes… you’ll be able to do it with Yeon-hee and the others helping you.”
‘Huh? How much does he know…?’
For a moment, I thought he knew all of our secrets, but that didn’t seem to be the case.
“The fact that others are helping you, as well as your own abilities, is ultimately your strength… no one can get to this position alone.”
“I will keep that in mind.”
I felt relieved by the Chairman’s words, which seemed to be telling me that growing with the help of those around me was also my ability, and trying to resolve the anxiety I had.
“Well, taking over the company isn’t something that happens overnight, and you’ll have to keep showing results to prove yourself.”
“Yes, I understand!”
The Chairman was satisfied with my confident answer.
In the end, I had agreed to become the successor, but it was something that would take at least a few years, if not more than a decade, so for now, I would just do my best.
“Then let’s get to the main point.”
“Yes, the main point… the main point?”
I couldn’t understand why he was saying that everything up to now wasn’t the main point.
“I already had the intention of handing over the company to you when you came to this company, so that’s not that important.”
“I, I see…”
The Chairman had been thinking about how to hand over the company to me ever since he knew that I would become the son-in-law of my mother-in-law and the husband of Yeon-ji.
He had been thinking about how to persuade me to become the successor and take over the company, but when I showed my will and thought about becoming the successor, he was happy and proceeded with the matter smoothly.
“Rather, I was wondering what to do if you didn’t take over the company and refused like Miss… no, President Jung-yeon hahaha… I’m glad you didn’t do such things.”
“Such things?”
“Never mind. It’s nothing you need to worry about.”
He was talking with a smile, but I felt a chill down my spine, and I thought it was better not to dig any deeper.
I had heard from my mother-in-law and Yeon-ji that he was kind and caring, but it seemed that was only for my mother-in-law and her sisters.
“So, are you getting along well with Yeon-ji?”
“Yes, of course… I’m thinking of getting married when Yeon-ji graduates.”
“Marriage… isn’t it a little late after graduating?”
“I think it’s better for Yeon-ji to finish her studies.”
“Hmm… then the great-grandchild… hmm…”
“Pardon?”
“No, it’s nothing.”
The Chairman seemed to want us to get married sooner because he wanted something else, but I decided to pretend I didn’t hear it.
“Even though Yeon-ji is innocent and pure, she has a good eye for people like the Madam, so she doesn’t doubt you.”
“Thank you.”
“Someone who does background checks…”
“Cough!! That’s just because Yeon-ji might have fallen for a bad guy.”
Yeon-hee casually revealed that the Chairman had done a background check on me, and the trust I had felt until just now seemed to be diminishing a little.
“Anyway, I’m glad you’re getting along well.”
“Yes.”
“Still, after meeting you, Yeon-ji has been going on dates with you, and the number of times she comes to see me has decreased, which makes me quite sad, but I can’t help it, hahaha.”
“I, I’m sorry…”
“It’s not your fault, hahaha.”
The Chairman was talking in a tone like a grandfather who was jealous that his granddaughter didn’t visit him as often after she got a boyfriend, which made me sweat a little.
‘I didn’t feel it earlier, but I feel the charisma now.’
He seemed more dignified and charismatic than when he was talking about the successor, but I decided to chalk it up to my imagination.
“The sooner you get married, the better, so think about it.”
“I understand.”
“And Yeon-hee should find a good man soon, shouldn’t she?”
The Chairman was talking to Yeon-hee with a much softer voice and a smile than when he was talking to me.
I felt a little discriminated against, but I decided to ignore it.
“I’m fine, so you don’t have to worry about me.”
The Chairman didn’t know about my relationship with Yeon-hee, so he naturally thought that Yeon-hee didn’t have a boyfriend at all.
‘If this is revealed, the Chairman might sincerely kill me…’
Of course, it was a relationship that we were doing for other reasons, but in front of Yeon-ji and Yeon-hee, the Chairman was completely a grandfather, so if it was revealed that I was using them as sows, there would be a huge aftermath.
“Okay…”
The Chairman was a little sullen at Yeon-hee’s firm and cold answer, but he quickly brightened his face and said something else.
“Then, does the Madam have any stories about men?”
“Mother… will be fine.”
“Ooh! That sounds like there’s something going on.”
Not only Yeon-ji and Yeon-hee, but also my mother-in-law was like a daughter to the Chairman, and he was hoping that she would remarry.
“Even though you’re all grown up now, it wouldn’t be bad to have a father, yes, of course.”
“Father, you say… hmm…”
Yeon-hee glanced at me at the word “father.”
I couldn’t reveal the truth, but it wasn’t wrong to say that Yeon-hee already had a Papa (?).
“Anyway, we’ll take care of ourselves, so please don’t interfere too much, Chairman.”
“Okay, I understand, hahaha.”
The Chairman seemed to be in a good mood and smiled. We talked for a while and then parted ways, and it ended with me officially becoming the successor.
