After listening to Ariana's instructions, Ren stood next to the door of Eira's office and stayed there motionless.
[it seems that this job will be simpler than I thought, for now, I can sleep awake, after all, no worker is stupid enough to come and bother the stupid woman directly without going through Ariana]
Ren thought calmly until he heard the elevator open.
[or not?]
Seeing his plan to sleep frustrated without even starting, Ren clicked his tongue internally, but he had already accepted the job and had no choice.
[what does this protagonist want now?]
Through the hallways, Ren could see Kyou coming towards the office with almost undisguised anger as he had his fists clenched walking towards Eira's office directly ignoring him as if Ren was air.
Ren, who noticed Kyou's intention, moved in front of the door, blocking Kyou's path.
Kyou looked up and looked at Ren as he arrogantly gave an order.
-I'm going to see Eira, move
Ren raised his eyebrow slightly, although it was not his intention to move the plot, work is work and he was not going to let someone pass without orders and be fired later.
"My orders are not to let anyone pass."
Kyou upon seeing Ren's refusal, thought with his limited brain capacity that he was looked down upon by the other party.
That is a law of urban novels, whenever they say no to the protagonist it is because the other party despises him.
Ren, who was a person with a brain quotient above average, had the order not to let anyone pass, and from Kyou's attitude, it was obvious that he did not have an appointment to talk to Eira, that's why he blocked him.
But Kyou couldn't think about that, he just saw Ren blocking him and thought that he was being belittled by a rat that could easily die under his hand.
-move or I'll move you
Kyou was already about to move his hand, if this was the foreigner, just getting in his Kyou's way would be enough for the other party to be killed.
Ren noticed Kyou's overflowing anger and was confused, he didn't do anything to Kyou, he only saw him once yesterday, but Ren wasn't a vegetarian either.
[um... if he wants to fight here I wouldn't have a problem, but if I show too much force I could be in his sights and begin to be observed, if he is attentive to my presence in the events of the novel he could change the plot... what bothering, I put in this problem and just started my job]
Ren sighed internally, he just wanted to sleep for a moment and the next second he was already under a difficult decision between his morale at work and his mission to follow the plot.
What stopped Ren's annoyance was Ariana who returned to her position, which was next to the door to Eira's office.
She saw kyou being blocked by Ren and immediately thought that Ren didn't want to let him through for being an ordinary security guard.
It is not known why the secretary's brain circuit worked like this, she remembered that Eira was saved by Kyou twice, and deserved the honor of entering her boss's office, but she couldn't say that directly, so she entered to talk. with the 2 parts
- What's happening Mr. Kyou?
Kyou, upon seeing Ariana, pointed his finger at the motionless Ren and spoke as if it were Ren's fault.
- Ariana, tell him to move, I have to talk to Eira
Ariana ignored how Kyou called Eira by her name instead of president like all the workers, since Kyou had a reason, she decided to help him.
-Can I ask why?
-I need an explanation as to why she gave the assistant guard position to this guy.
Kyou said as he pointed at Ren.
Ren noticed Kyou's jealous look and couldn't help but feel ridiculous for a moment.
[could you be a more professional, brother? Since when can you strut about everything being you-, oh... true she must be in love with you, my mistake brother, but at least let me keep my professional rookie guard persona]
Ren had thought normally, but he realized that, in this novel, Eira must already have certain emotions for Kyou after being saved by him. 2 times, Ren admitted her mistake, but he couldn't say it directly without the slap in the face.
Ren nodded internally.
[I plan to give a short rookie explanation about why I was chosen by the stupid woman, and then he will do a slap scene where the stupid woman will come out on his behalf. He corrects me that kyou are exempt from not letting anyone pass, and I will end up with reduced pay. At best... I'm happy, I just forcibly created an event, a reward for blocking kyou]
Ren waited patiently and a voice answered his call.
[event start forced by variants - processing…]
'Beautiful
Ren's happiness was on his mind and he was about to express it by giving his explanation.
"well-
At that moment, the door to Eira's office opened and the cold president walked out.
Ren stood aside silently with his heart glad for the reward he was going to receive after this love drama.
Eira came out with a cold face looking at Ren.
[what does this woman have? Are you coming to receive your husband? what a dedicated woman]
The tone had sarcasm which Eira noticed causing more anger in her.
'Your whole family is dedicated.
Eira was working silently, but Ren's voice came into her office, she was going to ignore Ren's voice, but hearing that Ren believed that she was the little bodyguard's wife for some reason irritated Eira quite a bit as if she didn't would like her to be linked in any way to kyou.
When she found out about the world of the novel and that she would be Kyou's wife, it caused a sense of rejection and rebellion in her unconscious.
After a while, she calmed down and decided to resolve this and then get back to work.
Eira looked at Kyou and asked in her cold tone.
- what's going on?
Kyou was unfazed by that tone and asked Eira kindly.
-Miss Eira.
Eira interrupted her words coldly.
-President Fujikuro
Ren and Kyou were left beside themselves by Eira's words, Kyou's mouth twisted as he was embarrassed by Eira while Ren was internally crying when he saw the words that were only in front of him.
[forced event canceled]
[top brass noted the loophole in "forcing an event"]
[the higher-ups blocked the loophole, the host will not be able to repeat a "force event"]
'ha... I wanted a free gift.
Ren felt aggrieved at the loss of an event, hence a reward, in his mind he couldn't help but say.
[stupid woman]
Eira's anger rose again, but since she had nowhere to vent her anger, she could only look at Kyou coldly.
Kyou was left with the words in his throat due to Eira's coldness, when Eira looked at him more coldly he was momentarily taken aback, but he still quickly composed himself and understood that Eira wanted face and did not want them to be too intimate with her in public. .
Kyou regained his smile and spoke naturally.
-President Fujikuro, I need to know why she gave the position of assistant bodyguard to that man and not to me, since I am more qualified in every way
[Is this man sane? I know he is your wife, but can you give her some face at least about his ability? You are talking in front of the new bodyguard and your boss's secretary to her as if she were your equal, in addition to telling her that she doesn't know how to decide, yes, this protagonist's arrogance was rooted in the bones]
Kyou looked at Eira with a smile and didn't think he had done anything wrong. Ren also noticed her calm attitude as if his words were normal and he hadn't done anything to embarrass Eira. Ren analyzed that attitude.
[let's see...kyou abroad is the dragon king, a group of mercenaries that are among the top rankings, the thing is that here he decided to come to this small country incognito leaving his identity hidden, the joke is that he could have left his identity out, but not his arrogance, although in the novel the arrogance of a protagonist is necessary for the reader and the slapping scenes, this is reality, and although Eira is Kyou's wife and is madly in love with him, for that there are still more events to come, right now she is his boss, and from Eira's reaction, it seems that she did not like Kyou's words]
As Ren thought, upon hearing Kyou's words, Eira's expression became colder, and along with Ren's thoughts, her anger increased, although she just received valuable information about Kyou's identity, at this moment she was more angry about the future that awaits her.
'Will I fall in love with an arrogant and arrogant guy like that? What kind of brain circuit does the author use? Or does he not know women?
Eira thought angrily, she had given such a test to Ren before because of the same thing that happened with Kyou, originally in the novel, Eira was hesitant to select Kyou as her assistant bodyguard even after seeing her strength against some gangsters.
why?
because she originally at the beginning of the novel did not have good feelings toward kyou.
In particular, the look of undisguised desire he gave her disgusted her greatly.
In a typical cliché of novels of this type, The female lead will not like the male protagonist in the early stages of the novel.
In the novel, after she has been saved by Kyou on multiple occasions her mental resistance breaks a little and she selects Kyou as her assistant bodyguard, and throughout the month they will spend a lot of time together, which is why when Paul returns later In a month, Eira will already have her decision to end the marriage.
a couple of days after the month has passed, Eira and Paul's family hold a banquet to announce the wedding date, but Eira comes with Kyou saying that he is her boyfriend and will run away from the marriage, leaving her family behind the mercy of Paul's family.
that's why Ren thinks Eira is stupid.
Leave your father who raised you for 20 years, just for a man you knew for a month?
Ren knows that if this were reality, Paul's family would sink Eira's family from society for what they did to their son, but because of the plot, it just doesn't happen and they're just trying to do things behind the scenes to annoy to kyou only to end with kyou using that to make the hero save beauty and take more heroines.
coming back to the reality.
Ren watched as Eira became angry, but on the outside, she only said with authority and coldness that made Ariana feel like her bones were freezing, the only normal girl in the area.
- I don't know who you think you are, you are no one to intervene in my decisions as president, get out of here
Eira said leaving kyou with his mouth open in surprise.
It was obvious that Eira was angry, but Kyou couldn't believe it, now she was supposed to have a good impression of him for saving her twice.
Kyou looked at Ren and thought of a very strange probability.
'must be this guy, he was with Paul yesterday, his servant? so that bastard Paul's family must have pressured Eira's family to place a servant as an observer.
Kyou concluded, he didn't want to believe that Eira didn't have a good impression of him.
and strangely, Ren understood some of what he said.
[Does he think I have something to do with it? ha... in what world I have to land]
Ren ignored Kyou's gaze and just looked ahead waiting for instructions from his boss.
Eira, seeing Kyou still with his mouth open like an idiot, spoke with a cold voice.
- You do not go? do you want to be fired?
Upon hearing Eira's threat, Kyou became momentarily angry, even though he is now a security guard, he is the proud dragon king, he goes anywhere he wants, abroad the biggest companies would beg on their knees for him to commit to his daughters, they would even give up their daughters just to have a business with him.
but the president here is kicking him out of here for a mistake that is not his, in Kyou's opinion, he is much more capable of protecting Eira than that nobody Ren.
Kyou didn't say anything else and turned around.
Eira didn't say anything either and entered his office and closed the door directly.
Kyou was left thinking.
'interesting woman... the harder it is to conquer, the better the feeling will be when you're begging me.
Ren simply stayed outside the office with the small secretary Ariana who continued with her work, as secretary of a president who owns one of the largest cosmetics companies, she must be capable in her work, due to the large amount of work she had every day.
Ren watched Ariana do her work like crazy and nodded to himself.
[This little secretary is very capable, she endures... it couldn't be that her boss is leaving her too much work, right? I heard that there are bosses who give all their work to their secretaries, will Eira be one of those presidents? But then why is the little secretary going crazy with documents?]
Ren thought, though he later shrugged, it was none of his business.
A few more minutes passed before Eira left the office with a cold look and walked towards the elevator while gave orders.
-Follow me, and you will take me somewhere
Ren looked at Eira's back and was slightly taken aback by that coldness, it wasn't a coldness when he met Eira, it was an angry coldness.
[what the hell is wrong with this woman? She looks like she just ate an ice pack]
but outside, Ren said.
"I'm coming, boss.
Ren followed Eira, keeping his distance from her at all times and not looking at her at any time, knowing things about your boss is part of being a trained worker and Ren knows that her boss doesn't like being looked at incorrectly.
Upon reaching the parking lot, Ren walked forward and opened the door for Eira to which Eira entered elegantly.
Ren got into the driver's seat and asked.
" address?
- xxxx-xxxxx 15 minutes left until the meeting.
[luckily I learned the city map a while ago]
Ren pressed the accelerator and began to drive quickly, thanks to the modifications of this car, the vibrations of the engine were not felt, therefore, it was easier for Ren to drive without bothering his boss who was reviewing documents in the back seat.
Ren watched Eira for only a moment before continuing on his way.
[um... if I'm not mistaken this is also an event, right?]
Ren thought quietly making Eira stop reading the document for a moment.
Eira was angry at how Ren called her a lazy boss who left all her work to her subordinate, to teach Ren a lesson, she brought him to this meeting, but unexpectedly she was learning some interesting information.
[If I'm not mistaken, this event will make Eira place all her trust in Kyou... but why now and not in a month when Kyou already has a certain depth of relationship and trust with Eira? umm... I see, things speed up because Paul is not in a coma right now, in the novel Paul's father was supposed to make Kyou's path difficult and make his path difficult by increasing Kyou's hatred of Paul's family, but since there is no news of a culprit, there is no one to make Kyou and Eira's work difficult... originally this business would happen a month later since having Paul in a coma, said investment business could not go through Paul's father who I make things difficult for kyou, now that there are no obstacles, Kyou's plan can be implemented, I see, it seems that the world is acting to follow the plot]
Ren nodded to himself, on the other hand, Eira began to think about Ren's words.
'if what he said is true, it could mean that the events will happen whether I like it or not... I was planning to control my destiny and not let others do it, but if it is true that the events of the novel will happen one way or another. .. I need to confirm this.
Eira thought to herself, she is currently under a fog that does not let her know what kind of events Ren is referring to, but from what she understood, an "event" is an event in the novel in which Kyou must do something to obtain something.
Arriving at the meeting place, Ren quickly got out of the driver's seat to open Eira's door, but when he opened the driver's door, Eira also opened hers and got out.
-follow me
Ren closed his door and followed Eira to the meeting place at a company.
At the entrance, there was a middle-aged man who was waiting for Eira with a smile. When he saw Ren, his eyes widened for a second, as if he was surprised by Ren's presence, but he quickly composed himself before greeting Eira. politely.
-President Fujikuro, it is a pleasure to have you here.
- guide me to the office.
- of course.
Eira followed the man while Ren thought.
[do you know me? no, you're surprised that I'm here then, how strange... right, kyou was your boss, I forgot]
Ren nodded for a second... when something doesn't interest Ren, it's hard for him to pay attention to it, and the novel couldn't really make him interested in anything, he just read the titles of events and about villains and heroines so he can know where to introduce himself, but that's it, I don't investigate the details much.
I don't skim any detailed plan outside of the general plot for more than 2 seconds.
[Let's see... if I'm not mistaken, this was the first step so that Eira could be in Kyou's hands completely]
Hearing Ren's words, Eira was quite surprised, plus it made her pay all her attention to Ren's voice.
[If I'm not mistaken, Eira will have to- hell, a Santa Claus in the middle of the year, who has this there?]
Eira almost turned around to shout at Ren.
"Could you concentrate more bastard!?"
But she held her tongue and continued, but not before remembering to have her secretary eliminate all the Santa Clauses in her company from some forgetful worker.
Ren no longer thought about the event, because his system was ringing.
[story event- in progress]
Ren nodded to himself as he followed the 2 business people to the boss's office.
Upon arriving at the office, it turns out that the boss was the one who received them, Ren did not expect that level of face from him, but Ren assumed that it must be because of Eira.
Eira exchanged a few words with the boss.
basically, the business plan was to expand an Eira cosmetic abroad, its base in the city was currently strong with a value of more than 1 billion dollars, and it wanted to expand its business, so it chose between foreign production companies to produce your product in other countries.
She was sure of the business, therefore, she invested 60% of her capital in this, she reviewed the business from all angles and concluded that it was a business that would bring quite a few benefits.
but upon hearing Ren's voice, she began to review the contract again while the boss in front of her spoke.
-Is something wrong, president?
-It's nothing, I just want to review it one last time.
The fat boss asked with a little sweat, if Eira didn't sign the contract, he would be the one who is screwed now.
Eira tried to check something but found nothing wrong.
Ren who was behind Eira tried to take a look at the contract.
[um...although his hair blocks my view from understanding the contract, I must admit that his scent is fresh, totally opposite to his common expression]
Eira intentionally ignored the last sentence and focused on the first.
'Could it be him?
Eira turned to look at Ren and Ren quickly stood upright again looking straight ahead, he knew that it was his mistake to have tried to observe company matters.
[um... I guess it could be a wake-up call, my bad]
but contrary to Ren's thoughts, Eira spoke to him in a commanding tone.
- Check this out.
"you say it to me?
- Is there anyone else here?
[boss? I don't understand, why do you want me to see his contract?...whatever, let's just say something simple]
"Excuse me, boss, I'm unworthy of even thinking about checking his business.
- If you discover something bad I will give you a bonus.
"I am unworthy, but I will do my best for this honor.
Ren changed his face and received the contract from Eira's hand, to which the boss in front of Eira felt somewhat absurd.
'Is this woman my boss likes? ask a little bodyguard?
Frankly, for this fat boss, Eira's action was somewhat foolish.
firstly, because she openly said that there might be a trap, and although there really is a trap, it is impossible for her to notice it, secondly, because instead of bringing in a capable worker she asked this young bodyguard.
'This will be easier than I thought.
the fat boss thought with mockery as he looked at Ren who was reading the documents quickly turning pages, with that he was already sure that Ren was just trying to pretend to be something.
On the other hand, Eira couldn't care less if that guy watched them, she just waited for Ren who was quickly reviewing the documents.
Ren, who quickly checked everything, only said a few words.
"Everything seems correct to me, boss.
Eira received the documents without changing her face, but Ren's thoughts made her almost let out a smile.
[so that was the crux of the matter, the contract is correct, if it weren't a trap, this business would make her reach the top with her cosmetics company, the thing is that she was missing one detail, it is the supply and demand of This, once this goes on the foreign market, its demand will be enormous, but although the production machines are fast, from what I read for this medical recipe, several ingredients are required, and the contract does not say how much the quantity will be that they will offer to the beginning, therefore, if they offer much more than what the company can produce, there will be problems, to compensate, Eira will have to give her own money to cover said lack of supply, in other words, she will be very screwed... yes that kyou made a cruel plan huh? He took advantage of Eira's lack of experience in the foreign market... now that I remember, he came up with a secret and quite effective medical prescription, considering the hole Eira would be in at that moment, that prescription would be like a lifesaver for her. Therefore, his heart will be Kyou's.
Hang on... does that mean I'll only have this job for a month? damn, I guess I should be looking for a job soon, I don't think kyou will let me hang around Eira, if he doesn't try to kill me, although it will be easy to get out, it's better to avoid the future fatigue]
Ren thought to himself, that his mission was to be present in the plot of the novel, not to get involved with the heroine, he accepted the job that Eira offered him because there were no disadvantages, as it was the early stages of the novel, Ren knows that Eira still She is not Kyou's wife, therefore, he will not try to kill everything that approaches Eira, and the offer was too tempting for him who does not even have anywhere to drop dead.
Therefore, Ren did not plan to tell the gist of the contract to Eira.
On the other hand, Eira received quite a shock.
Ren told Kyou's whole plan was to fuck her up, then save her and make her his.
She thought she was about to make a big deal, but it ended up being her own grave, the fat boss had assured her that there were no problems with the materials.
Eira took a deep breath to avoid killing the boss in front of her.
He spoke with a totally cold tone while she reviewed the plan one last time.
-Tell me, how much will the initial offer be?
The manager who was asked suddenly did not prepare her response and said.
-Hey? Don't worry president, I'm sure your factories will be able to produce enough for customer demand.
-How do you know how much my factories can produce?
-...
- I said, how much will the initial offer amount be?
The temperature of the room dropped a few degrees due to Eira's temper, Ren was only slightly amused, while the boss in front of Eira felt like his gums were freezing.
He stuttered a little as he said.
- no, be worried, worry.
-I'll say it for the last time, how much will the initial offer be?
The manager had no choice but to give the offer that Kyou ordered.
Eira seeing the amount of products his company would have to produce in the first month...
Eira took a deep breath.
- nothing is signed, let's go
Eira said before putting down her pen and standing up.
Ren nodded silently before waiting for Eira to come out.
-wait!
The fat manager jumped out of his seat and ran to grab Eira's arm.
Eira turned when she heard the manager's voice and could see how he tried to grab her arm with his greasy, sausage-fat hands.
Eira stepped back instinctively, but the nearby manager's arm never touched Eira.
Ren grabbed the manager's arm and spoke coldly.
"If you're a boss, behave like one.
Ren pushed the fat man lightly, but the fat man couldn't keep his balance and fell.
Ren then stood behind Eira.
Eira reacted at this moment, looking at Ren for a moment and then at the fat boss on the ground.
- like I said, the deal is off.
Eira left without looking back and Ren followed her silently as he closed the door.
From behind the door they both listened.
- you will regret this!
Neither of them turned back again.
