dripping.
There was a knock on room 8.
Soon the door opened and the faces that came out were the man who had been in charge of the choices earlier and a man with a sporty haircut who looked to be in his 40s.
“Excuse me, bosses? I brought the manager in charge so you can discuss it right away! This person is in charge of all the girls in this area! Haha.”
“Hello. This is Director Park. You can call me President Park or Madam Park.”
First, Mr. Park bows his head politely and greets us.
Then he came inside and began to quickly scan the group with his eyes.
‘What? They’re all young guys? These bloody bastards have a lot of money?’
The guests were much younger than I expected.
I thought the age group would be quite old since they asked for a second round less than an hour after coming in and gave a tip of almost 1 million won.
First of all, when you say you work in the entertainment industry, the first thing that comes to mind is someone like the president of an entertainment agency.
But, who knew they were such a bunch of lumps of blood?
A sly smile appeared on Mr. Park’s lips as he thought that he would be able to get a deal easily, even though he was laughing.
“I heard that you want to let our Jia leave work early. Bosses, are you done drinking?”
Jia was Kim Ye-seul’s stage name at the store.
I asked because the royal salad on the table was not even half empty.
‘At first glance, it doesn’t look like there are two rice cakes. This guy here seems to be the real deal. He’s dressed in luxury goods from head to toe.’
It was easy to tell which of the three men in the room was the water maker and which was the money maker.
Unlike the two men with fierce looks, only that slender man was wearing luxury items.
One strange thing was that all four of them, including Kim Ye-seul, were sitting at a certain distance from each other.
“We’re going to keep eating here until closing time. Let’s talk over here. I’m the one who called you.”
“… … .”
‘What? This way, that way? These damned Shangnomoo kids.’
Mr. Park didn’t show it on the outside, but he almost swore at me for a moment.
It was because the young kid was talking to someone who seemed old enough to be his uncle about this side and that side, and his words didn’t end with ‘yo’.
Phew, what can I do? If I want to continue working in this field, I have to endure all the dirty things and live.
“Ah, hahaha. Yes, I see. Then I will talk to the boss here. How much time do you think it will take? The amount varies quite a bit depending on whether you are short or long.”
“When you say long, how long do you mean?”
“Oh, yes. Well, it’s literally just one night. Just have a good time today and make sure you have a good time at work tomorrow. Hahaha.”
Even as he was laughing jokingly, he was quickly calculating numbers in his head.
It looks like he’s planning to take it with him, and he’s in the middle of estimating how much he should be asking for the long price.
If you’re going to cover your whole body with those kinds of luxury items, you might as well get your eyes slapped hard.
Besides, seeing as he said he would take her out in less than an hour, it seems like that was his original purpose.
“I don’t want that kind of long, but I really want to get this girl off work. What should I do then?”
“Yes… … ? If it’s just after work, what exactly… … ?”
“I mean, literally, leaving this place forever, not just for one night, but leaving this place completely. So that I never have to go to work here again.”
At that moment, I remembered what Madam Young had said earlier.
I think he’s a very successful person in the entertainment industry.
Still, since we had been drinking and talking about this and that for an hour, I could immediately figure out what he meant.
“Oh, I guess I misunderstood. Haha. Is that what you meant? Yes, this friend is currently working in a place like this due to circumstances, but he has a lot of potential. I also have no doubt that one day he will shine.”
Mr. Park rubbed his palms together and briefly looked at Kim Ye-seul.
“But, I know it’s presumptuous of me to ask, but I paid this guy money in advance because he was in a difficult situation. It wasn’t a small amount, though… … Haha. If that part could be resolved, I’d be fine.”
“Is that so? How much is it?”
At that fleeting moment, Mr. Park, who had been rolling his eyes, soon spread out one of his index fingers.
“Just one. I think I should get at least one big one. There’s the advance payment I paid to this guy, but there’s also a lot of money that goes into making him work here. If I get that amount, I don’t think it’ll be a bad deal for me, haha.”
At the word “one sheet,” everyone’s expression became similar.
However, those were not surprised or bewildered faces; it was more like a reaction that seemed to have been expected.
‘What? You don’t think one piece is worth ten million won, do you? Why are you reacting like this? You look like you’re saying this is some kid’s prank.’
“That one piece of paper obviously can’t be worth 10 million won. You’re talking about 100 million won, right? After all, the amount written on the contract itself was 30 million.”
“… … Yes? A contract? If it’s a contract, what kind of… … ?”
“This is it. Isn’t this what’s binding you here? You said you’re working here because of this contract.”
What Heesung handed over was a sheet of A4 paper.
And there, written in large letters, were the words ‘Exclusive Contract’.
“You must have heard that I work in the entertainment industry. No matter how I look at it, this contract seems ridiculous. Are you using this as an excuse to lock up a friend with a bright future in a place like this?”
Mr. Park now sensed that the atmosphere was strange.
These guys didn’t call me into the room for a second time.
Since he said he worked in the entertainment industry, he must have been talking nonsense, and that’s how he ended up working here.
It seemed like I even had to take out the contract.
‘Oh, my. That girl is a funny girl, really. Did she carry the contract in her bosom? With the intention of tattletales at any moment?’
But there was not a hint of embarrassment or tension on Mr. Park’s face.
If I was going to feel stung by something like this, I would have left this place a long time ago.
“What? So what are you trying to say? Are you trying to become an apostle of justice? Are you trying to save a poor lamb and raise your name in the world? What is that?”
If a guy with no blood on his head came, he would have just had a nice drink and left.
Mr. Park raised his voice because he was so angry at the sight of him trying to meddle in the water by telling him to leave the water and leave the pears.
Even if I do well in that field, there’s no way I can do anything about a formal contract.
Because it can be easily proven that it was not due to coercion and that there was an amicable agreement between the parties.
It’s not like I hired them without any compensation.
One guy like this was a non-issue.
“Okay, Zia, you come out. I gave you a job to make money, so why are you even thinking of sticking to some punk? Do you think that if you just shove a contract in your face, he’ll solve anything? You crazy. Get out, you bitch. Before I break your legs with a club.”
Kim Ye-seul’s eyes began to shake rapidly as Park, who was spitting out harsh curses, threatened her.
Hee-sung looked at Kim Ye-seul, whose hands were shaking, for a moment before speaking to Mr. Park.
“I will return the deposit of 1,500 won that I received as a deposit right here and now. But let’s pretend this contract never happened. Let’s not make things tiresome for either of us.”
“아, 나 이 새끼가. 손님이라 좋게 좋게 넘어가려고 했더니. 야, 이 새끼야. 아까 내 말 못 들었어? 1억을 가져오라고. 그럼 네가 저년 서방이 되든 애비가 되든 신경 안 쓸 테니까. 사람 말을 똥구멍으로 쳐 듣나.”
“Hey, Uncle. Would you mind speaking more politely? It’s not like you’re the only one here with ears to hear.”
Park Chang-soo, Hee-sung’s senior soldier who had been watching quietly, intervened and said.
Although he spoke in a quiet tone, it was enough to intimidate him because he was unusual in appearance and size.
But what came back was Mr. Park’s arsenic.
“What are you guys doing? Why are you guys suddenly acting like idiots while drinking? You guys want to have a drink with women too, so where are you acting like you’re heroes? Why, you guys want to grab a girl’s ass too? Huh?”
Mr. Park kicked the table hard with his foot and walked briskly in the direction where Kim Ye-seul was sitting.
Then he grabbed her arm roughly and swore at her.
“What are you doing?
As he forcibly dragged Kim Ye-seul away, her body was hitting the table hard here and there.
Meanwhile, the glasses fell to the floor and broke, and Mr. Park’s excitement had already reached its peak.
“What are you doing? Tell me.”
“Come out, you little punk! How dare you touch me?”
puck!
bang!
Park shook off Heeseong’s arm that was grabbing Park’s shoulder and hit Heeseong’s chin with his elbow.
Heeseong lost his balance and fell down onto the table, and at the same time, the floor became a mess.
“Hey, you little shits. Pay for the drinks and get out. If you don’t want to see me suffer any more, just shut your mouths, close your ears, and live your lives. Am I scary? I’m not the kind of person that pyramids like you can deal with. Do you get that?”
“Phew.”
Heeseong got up, wiping the blood from his burst lip.
Then he spat once to remove the remaining blood and looked at Mr. Park.
“It seems like I gave you a chance, but you threw it away without a second thought. I didn’t expect it in the first place. Do you know, this is assault? I’ll make sure you pay for this as an additional charge. Everything will be covered up during the police and prosecutors’ investigation.”
With those words, Heeseong stood in front of Mr. Park.
Then he whispered with a meaningful smile.
“You think we came here just to drink? No way. We came here to catch you. To throw you in that cell. Along with those two authorities over there.”
At those words, Mr. Park’s gaze immediately shifted to the two men. Then, Hee-sung opened his mouth again and added.
“I see you haven’t even finished your probation period yet. Congratulations. If you go in this time, you’ll be out when you’re over 50.”
