Chapter 299: Chapter 293

Checking the dates on a calendar, Jungsu smiled brightly.

“Honey, did you notice this? Golden Week is next month. If we take leave on Friday, we can have a vacation from Thursday until the next Monday. How about Thailand?”

Hearing that, Suji walked over to him and said, poking him in the ribs.

“Don't you know your father's birthday next month?”

Scratching his head, he said, “Oh, really?”

“It's time to go to work. Hurry up! Mom and Dad are waiting for you. Don't keep them waiting.”

“Let's just eat here between you and me. Why should we go there to see them often like this?”

“We should see them at least once a month.”

Jungsu reluctantly hurried up. And with his three-year-old baby, he and Suji drove to Seoul.

His parents welcomed them with a bright smile.

But Jungsu felt a bit strange about his father's laughing. It was not natural, he thought.

‘Does he have an unwelcome task he wants to ask of me?'

Jungsu pretended not to know. They went to a restaurant for dinner and then came back home for a chat and drink.

After a while, Youngguk called his son quietly.

“Son, let's go for a walk together.”

“Sure, dad.”

Jungsu followed his father outside.

Though it was March, it was still cold outside. Besides, it was very windy.

Youngguk said, pointing to a coffee shop, “How about a cup of hot coffee over there?”

They went to the coffee shop.

Only then did he bring up the main topic.

“You know Hyunwoo Jang, right?”

Jungsu's heart sank.

It was not because of Suji. His father must not have made such an expression because of her.

Obviously, he had some other headache.

Jungsu cautiously asked, “Yes, I know Hyunwoo.”

“A big shot at the National a.s.sembly is trying to put pressure on me. He wants me to implicate him in a crime by all means.”

Jungsu's eyes opened wide with a big surprise.

“What the heck is that?”

Reading a newspaper article, Hyunwoo let out a sigh.

The article was about the announcement by the Prosecutors' Office about the closing of the investigation into the Musik list. The result was what Mr. Wonju Ha, now the strongest man of the ruling party, expected.

Hyunwoo felt regrets about it, but he couldn't just keep sighing.

I have to brace for another chance to get the corrupt politicians. What should I do next?

Hyunwoo deeply agonized again.

At that moment, his phone buzzed noisily.

It was a call from his father, Duyoung.

Come to think of it, he felt that he had neglected to take care of his parents these days.

It had been about 15 days ago that he met his parents last.

Of course, Yu Zuung was different. She was still basking in the sweetness of their honeymoon. It seemed as if she had all his love and attention that had been reserved for his parents.

The reason was simple. She lived alone with Hyunwoo.

Of course, Hyunwoo and Yu Zuung wanted to live with them, but they refused.

In particular, Jisook was strongly opposed. She said if they lived together, they could not enjoy the happiness of being newlyweds. Besides, their houses were within ten-minute walking distance.

‘I think I have to live with them in my house.'

Refres.h.i.+ng his determination, Hyunwoo answered his father's phone call.

When he picked up the phone Hyunwoo heard his father saying something quickly in an excited voice.

“I've made it! Finally, I have found it, Hyunwoo.”

Though Duyoung was working on a couple of other research projects, that was not something that made him so excited like this.

“Let me come and see you now.”

As soon as he hung up the phone, he raced to STM Research Center.

Duyoung was nervous in sheer excitement when he got there.

“Have you discovered it?” asked Hyunwoo.

Before answering, Duyoung checked if there was anybody near his research room outside.

After confirming n.o.body was around, he locked the door and said, “I've found it. The error in contraction is almost none, less than a tenth of a million.”

Hyunwoo actually couldn't feel how much the error of a tenth of a million was. But he could figure it out, seeing Dooyoung's facial expression and way of speaking.

“It's almost the same.”

“Right. I can safely say that it's almost the same material. In fact, even the same Toughtex products have a bit of error when I compare two of them.”

Duyoung explained in more detail.
