Fate is like a torrent with no known endpoint; once it merges into the journey, it can never be halted. One must endure the scorching sun and fierce winds to blend into the sea; otherwise, perhaps along the way, one may already be reduced to ashes.
Entering the grand building, Andy arrived at the seldom-visited top floor, where footsteps echoed in the quiet corridor.
He knocked on the door.
"Come in," a voice came from within.
Andy opened the door to a vast office, unusually dim. The exquisite mahogany furniture stood out, but the most prominent feature was a row of expensive foreign wines and classical books. Behind the desk sat a man with graying temples. Although well-groomed, faint wrinkles were still visible at the corners of his eyes. His eagle-like gaze sent chills down one's spine; despite always wearing a smile, there seemed to be an elusive deeper meaning behind it.
He was Jin Yu Cheng, the chairman of Century Group, the man who controlled the economic lifeline of South Korea.
"You're here," Jin Yu Cheng said as he lit a cigar and took a puff, slowly exhaling smoke.
"Yes, sir," Andy bowed and stood before Jin Yu Cheng.
"What did he say?" Jin Yu Cheng asked, smoke swirling around him, making it difficult to see his expression clearly.
"I have spoken with Mr. Yoo Jae-suk. He said," Andy paused for a moment, "that he feels his abilities are insufficient to participate in this matter."
Jin Yu Cheng took another puff of his cigar, seemingly deep in thought, then said, "Did you tell him this was my intention?"
"Yes, the situation has been fully explained," Andy said.
"Good, I understand. How is Yoo Jae-suk doing now?"
"He is currently filming in China. Should we continue communication with him?"
"Let's wait until he returns. I want to meet him in person," Jin Yu Cheng said, raising the corner of his mouth and placing the cigar in an exquisite crystal ashtray.
"If Mr. Yoo Jae-suk agrees, it would greatly help us with our plans," Andy said.
"That's for sure. By the way, what about your sister? That Miss Anna?" Jin Yu Cheng stared at Andy, a strange light in his eyes as he asked, "Could you ask your sister to help out?"
"I'm sorry, sir," Andy replied, lowering his head. "Please forgive me; I don't want her to get involved in this matter."
Hearing this, Jin Yu Cheng fell silent for a moment. After a long pause, he raised the corner of his mouth and said, "Alright, you handle it as you see fit."
"Thank you," Andy said.
"When Yoo Jae-suk returns to the country, arrange for me to meet with Mr. Yoo Jae-suk. Time is running short," Jin Yu Cheng instructed.
"Understood, sir," Andy replied.
As he exited the office and walked through a corridor, turning a corner, a girl approached him. She was tall with long, wavy flaxen hair, backlit so her face was unclear. Walking slowly in exquisite high heels, Andy recognized who she was and smiled knowingly.
"You rarely show up here, Miki," Andy said as he walked by.
Miki also stopped and replied softly, "I come often, just don't want to see you."
Andy smiled and nodded, looking at Miki. "I thought you went back to China to find him."
Hearing this, Miki frowned and turned to glare at Andy. "Don't always pretend like you know me so well."
But Andy was not annoyed. "It seems that you only look at me when the topic is about him."
Miki turned away, wanting to leave, but Andy grabbed her arm and pulled her back.
