Omniscient Investment Point - Chapter 217
Only Noblemtl
217. One more leap – 5
(1)
There is a saying that marriage is a matter of human relations.
I don’t know what such grand words are, but the closer I got, the more excited I felt.
People around me keep asking me questions without even knowing how I feel and without any clue.
It was especially bad at work.
“Wow, that must be exciting.”
“I want to get married too.”
“Me too, me too. I definitely want to do it, even if it’s just for the vacation.”
“Sigh, when will my love show up?”
“Waiting for a prince on a white horse, will that work?”
I also heard some foolish voices, but I just smiled and pretended to be calm.
‘I don’t know about you, but this married life is going to be like walking on thin ice for me.’
My limited life is being sorted out as my wedding approaches.
I couldn’t help but think about the fact that it was decreasing by the day from 2,100.
If you calculate it.
‘It hasn’t even been 6 years… … .’
It feels somehow stagnant.
So when I decided to get married, I was full of confidence, but these days, I feel like I’ve been wasting my energy.
It’s a given.
Like beans sprouting in a drought, we are extending our limited lifespan.
Moreover, there was something I hadn’t even thought of.
That’s the ‘±’ sign engraved every time I see someone who will extend my life.
I always believe that I will get pluses, but what if I fail even just once?
‘It could shorten your lifespan… … .’
Do people get anxious like me when they get married?
I should have asked this to Tak Jun-seok and others who were my seniors.
“I don’t know why I feel so anxious.”
“Wow, our CEO is human too.”
“I was originally a human?”
“I always thought the CEO was a robot because he was so strong-hearted. Anyway, it’s natural to feel anxious, right? But the bride will feel it more than the groom, so our CEO has to console her well. Okay?”
“Ah… … , yes. I understand.”
A reality that suddenly dawned on me.
Maybe Kang Hyun-ji was more anxious than I was.
So that evening, I spoke to Kang Hyun-ji with more confidence than ever.
“Mr. Hyunji, I’ll make you the happiest person in the world. I’m not good at saying things like that. I’ll just live a long life. And I’ll show you what a hundred-year marriage is.”
“What? Why did you suddenly become so serious?”
“huh?”
“Why are you saying such obvious things with such a serious expression?”
“That’s it, what… … .”
“Do you think I’m anxious?”
“Aren’t you anxious?”
“Don’t worry at all. I believe you will live a long life, oppa.”
“Yeah, yeah.”
When we had these conversations, I thought that Kang Hyun-ji might be more courageous than me.
‘That’s fortunate, isn’t it?’
Not everyone is lucky enough to find a good spouse.
I have found someone like that, and it seems like the chapter of marriage will finally open.
So this time, I promise to myself, not her.
‘Let’s live long. No matter what!’

Fortunately, the chances of extending my life continued to increase.
It’s not because of shamanism or supernatural phenomena.
It was scientifically, that is, medically proven.
This was proven by the results that came out before the wedding.
“The tumor is shrinking significantly.”
This was what came out of the mouth of my attending physician, Seungman Park.
I could tell from his voice and facial expression that he wasn’t just saying that.
Still, I asked one more time to confirm.
“Really?”
“Hehehe, you don’t believe me? I know it’s a bit embarrassing to say this myself, but I’m the top pancreatic cancer authority in the country.”
“Oh, that’s absolutely not the case. Hahaha.”
I feel so good that laughter just bursts out of my mouth.
As if he had read my mind, he offered me advice.
“I heard you’re getting married soon.”
“yes…….”
“If you come with the bride-to-be, I can tell you better.”
“ah…….”
It wasn’t a bad idea.
If only I could hear the assurance from the mouth of my doctor, and no one else.
‘Wouldn’t Mr. Hyunji feel more secure?’
So that day, I immediately took Kang Hyun-ji to the hospital again.
And Park Sang-man, who was kind enough to postpone work for me, began to explain even more kindly.
“The survival rate for terminal pancreatic cancer is not that high. I judged it that way and told our CEO Jang. However, CEO Jang is doing surprisingly well. I won’t lie, this is the first time I’ve seen a patient like this.”
“Ah… , yes… … .”
“But the cause of pancreatic cancer is actually questionable. Normally, it should be caused by type 2 diabetes or chronic pancreatitis, but when we traced back to Mr. Jang’s pancreas, there was no trace. If that were true, it would mean that acute pancreatic cancer had rapidly progressed to the terminal stage, but this is also theoretically incorrect.”
I’ve heard that story dozens of times.
He kept making expressions of incomprehension while speaking.
‘Probably no one will understand.’
My terminal pancreatic cancer could have been supernatural, or something that medicine or science could never explain.
It’s bound to be difficult to figure that out.
“Since we don’t even know the cause of the disease, it’s the first time we’ve seen President Jang’s terminal pancreatic cancer. I think the process of treating pancreatic cancer is probably the first time I’ve encountered this situation in my career as a doctor.”
“Are you saying that on a positive note?”
“Of course. If I may add a little more personal opinion, I would like to change the term pancreatic cancer treatment process to conquest process. However, as a doctor, I cannot use such unrealistic terms, so I expressed it like this. Now, would you like to see this?”
In reality, Kang Hyun-ji, the bride-to-be, is like my guardian.
Maybe that’s why Seungman Park explains my symptoms and the progress I’m making through the screen in more detail.
“This is the size of the tumor when I first saw it. However, when I earnestly begged and came back to our hospital, the tumor had not grown at all. Furthermore, I was lucky that there was no cancer cell metastasis. Then, when I started clinical trials of Kartib in earnest, it started to shrink like this… I can cautiously say that the new drug’s effect is having an effect.”
“ah…….”
It seemed like a good idea to bring Kang Hyun-ji here.
The day before, he seemed to have completely believed what I said, but now that I look at it, it seems like he’s blown away even the slightest doubt.
At the end, he bows to Seungman Park with an unadorned smile.
“Teacher, then, I ask for your continued support.”
“I will do my best.”
“thank you.”
“Oh, and congratulations on your wedding.”
“Ah… yes yes, thank you.”
What are you so thankful for?
I just stopped laughing.

The day before our wedding, we had lunch with Kyungsoo Kim.
It had to be that way because he was society.
“Cheers three times, are you okay?”
“Hey, that’s a bit… … .”
“After cheering three times, do you want to sing a serenade?”
“Well, I’ll just cheer three times.”
“I thought about it carefully.”
Was it a good thing to ask this guy to be the host?
I’m a little skeptical.
Unlike me, Kang Hyun-ji was laughing out loud throughout the conversation, wondering what was so funny.
In fact, after consulting with Park Seung-man, her smile became more transparent.
I thought that my anxiety had been significantly reduced.
‘I guess we’ll have to keep going to the hospital together from now on.’
Without even knowing this, my friend Kim Kyung-soo was making ridiculous boasts to Kang Hyun-ji.
“I don’t know about anything else, but I can definitely guarantee that this guy is healthy. He’s never been sick. If you look at his appearance, you’d think I’d be healthy, but sometimes I get a little shaky. Hahaha.”
Kang Hyun-ji looks at me, not knowing what expression to make.
A bitter smile comes out.

In the afternoon, I went back to the hospital with Kang Hyun-ji because I had missed an appointment with the dermatologist.
“I can definitely say that the power of medicine is no joke. Your skin has really improved so much that I can’t even recognize it.”
“Really? I’m not sure… … .”
“No. It’s really gotten better. In that sense, I think it would be good to continue going even after marriage.”
“what?”
“I’m going to quit dermatology for another year.”
“I’m fine… … .”
“I’m not okay.”
Have you been brainwashed by the director of the dermatology department?
Because of her stubbornness, we both had no choice but to break up for a year.
Rather than feeling like I wasted money, I feel a sense of guilt all over my body.
Without even knowing how I felt, she dragged me to the nail shop.
These days, even men manage things in places like this?
Since the wedding is tomorrow, I had to attend, so I had no choice but to sit down.
‘phew…….’
I couldn’t sigh out loud, so I sighed inwardly.
(5)
That evening, I welcomed my parents, my younger sibling, and Lee Jeong-su.
The meal was out, and all three of them began checking the preparations for the wedding tomorrow by asking various questions.
“Yes, it’s all done. Even my fingernails were taken care of.”
My brother and Lee Jeong-su laughing.
You guys should prepare for marriage too.
I can’t disobey a woman.
With that in mind, I was asked another question about my honeymoon.
So I put strength into my voice again.
“I’m going to have fun in Japan.”
Of course, Kang Hyun-ji and I’s honeymoon may be fun, but I’m also looking forward to the business schedule that unfolds afterward.
In particular, the anticipation was further heightened when I received a call from Hyun Ki-hyuk that night.
– Congratulations on your wedding.
“thank you.”
– Your honeymoon is in Japan, right?
“Huh? Yes, yes. How did you know?”
– I know you all know that. Anyway, if you have time, I’d like to meet you briefly in Japan. Oh, and of course I don’t intend to interrupt your honeymoon.
I smiled bitterly, because saying that was already a nuisance.
But I had no intention of refusing.
Kang Hyun-ji has already made all her honeymoon plans.
– Oppa, spend the first three days with me and think of the remaining four days as a business trip.
– Hey, that’s a bit… … .
– It’s okay. I didn’t want to stop you from doing that, so I don’t want to see you worrying for no reason.
– Oh, really? Oh, then let’s go to America together next month.
– America?
– Oh, Dr. Katy, the NASDAQ listing has been decided. Let’s go on a trip then and have some fun.
– Yeah, I guess so.
Because I remembered this conversation, I immediately accepted Hyun Ki-hyuk’s offer.
“Yes, that’s right.”
– Then, go to Japan and contact me~ I’ll take you to many fun places.
“Yes, yes, I understand.”
It’s a fun place… … .
This isn’t a place for honeymoons, is it?
I thought it probably meant a place in Japan that had invested or was planning to invest in the future.
‘This guy is really… … .’
I guess I’m living a life buried in work.
I feel like I’m looking into my future for no reason, so I let out a bitter smile once again.
‘I can’t help it.’
It’s fate. It’s destiny. You have to accept it. That’s how you can have fun living…

And the next day.
“The groom enters!”
I stand at the starting line to take another leap forward in my life.
Ambassador to humanity, marriage.
A new life begins.
With my beloved partner who I will spend the rest of my life with… … .
‘Let’s live long and prosper.’
