Real Man

Chapter 307:

Chapter 307

When Yoo-hyun came out after changing his clothes, the meal was already cleared away.

And on the ring, there was the man he had seen earlier.

The gym manager gave Yoo-hyun a playful smile and said,

“You know it’s our tradition that the youngest tests the newbies, right?”

“Am I a newbie?”

“Of course. You’ve been away for so long, you have to reset as a newbie. If you don’t pass here, you’ll be the youngest again, Yoo-hyun.”

The gym manager handed him a pair of gloves with a forced tone.

Yoo-hyun took the thick gloves and chuckled.

“Got it.”

“As expected. I knew you would accept. Let’s go up.”

The gym manager smiled and gestured toward the ring.

Yoo-hyun climbed up without hesitation.

He didn’t expect to have a match, but this was what he wanted.

He also wanted to sweat heavily after a long time.

The gym manager who joined him on the ring said,

“Your opponent’s name is Lee Jangwoo. Jangwoo, when did you join?”

The gym manager turned his head to Lee Jangwoo, who gave a short answer.

“It’s been two months.”

“I see. This is Han Yoo-hyun. You’ve seen him in the article before, right?”

“Yes. I did.”

Lee Jangwoo’s eyes sparkled at the mention of the article.

Yoo-hyun gave a hollow laugh at the sudden reference to the article.

Regardless, the gym manager went on to intimidate him.

“Right. He’s the fearsome guy who took down three thugs with one flying kick.”

“I know.”

“He’s your senior who’s testing you right now. You can go easy on him, can’t you?”

The gym manager used some strange logic to provoke his fighting spirit.

It was a ridiculous scene, but Lee Jangwoo was serious.

His voice even became stronger.

“I can’t.”

“Okay.”

Bang.

The gym manager slapped Lee Jangwoo’s back and smiled at Yoo-hyun.

“Yoo-hyun, don’t be a newbie again.”

“I won’t.”

Yoo-hyun calmly answered and put on his gloves.

The soft feeling was not bad.

Was it because of the gym manager’s stimulation?

He felt a fierce aura from Lee Jangwoo, who looked docile.

Yoo-hyun adjusted his posture and stared at his opponent with a serious look.

He was short and sturdy, a typical infighter style.

His stance was quite stable for a two-month experience.

Especially his calf muscles were impressive.

Ding.

It was the moment when the bell rang.

Wham.

Lee Jangwoo charged like a bull with his body lowered.

His momentum was no joke.

He was so fast that even Yoo-hyun had to back off.

Swish.

He didn’t miss Yoo-hyun and threw his fist at him.

Lee Jangwoo’s one-sided attack continued for a while.

Kim Taesoo, who was watching with an interesting expression, said to the gym manager,

“Why didn’t you tell Yoo-hyun the passing criteria for the test?”

“The one where he has to survive one round? What’s the point of telling him that?”

The gym manager answered indifferently, and Oh Jeongwook chimed in.

“Yoo-hyun is a guy who took a half-year break. Jangwoo is above pro level.”

Then Kang Dongshik next to him shook his head.

“Yoo-hyun can’t lose. He beat me too.”

“Brother, Jangwoo is better than you…”

As Kang Dongshik glared at Oh Jeongwook’s words, it was then that

The gym manager gestured toward the ring and said,

“No need to worry. Yoo-hyun is still alive.”

Shriek.

Yoo-hyun dodged Lee Jangwoo’s fist by moving sideways.

At first, he ran around the whole ring to avoid him, but the gap gradually narrowed.

At some point, he stuck close to Lee Jangwoo and spun around him.

Shoo, shoo.

He also avoided all his attacks.

Yoo-hyun had been on the ring for half a year, but he had been training regularly during that time.

Especially in Ulsan, he increased his running distance every morning.

It was like filling in the gap of the gym with extra training.

Thanks to that, Yoo-hyun’s feet were extremely light.

Thump thump thump.

Lee Jangwoo tried to tackle him with his lower body as if he couldn’t take it anymore.

Yoo-hyun dodged by turning his body and landed a counterpunch on his face accurately

Thud

Then he kicked his side hard as he lost his balance

“Cough.”

He could have fallen down, but Lee Jangwoo held on

He didn’t just hold on, he charged again

Balance, willpower, speed, he had nothing missing

Yoo-hyun didn’t back off, but slightly dodged and threw a punch right away

Thwack

It was a completely different sight from the past when he was busy avoiding

He had that much experience in real fights

He caught many thugs and knocked down Nam Jongbu’s bodyguards

His mind for attack itself was different from before

That aggressiveness showed in every move without holding back

Shriek

Yoo-hyun charged at Lee Jangwoo who was rushing at him

Then they exchanged punches in a completely close space

He dodged by a hair and hit hard again

Thump thump thump thump

The winner of the fierce battle was Yoo-hyun

“Cough”

Lee Jangwoo’s body was pushed back by Yoo-hyun’s attack and his posture was lowered

Yoo-hyun stepped forward to deliver the final blow, but it was then that

“Stop. That’s enough.”

The gym manager raised his hand and Yoo-hyun stopped.

“Huff, huff.”

Then he breathed heavily for the first time in a long time.

The gym members who saw him clicked their tongues.

“Jangwoo couldn’t last one round.”

“What the hell is Yoo-hyun? Did he go through hell training or something?”

“How can he do that?”

On the other hand, the gym manager who came up to the ring had a flush on his face.

He handed him a drink and said,

“As expected, you’re the real senior, Yoo-hyun.”

“Well, Jangwoo is really good for two months, don’t you think?”

“Huh? Oh, yeah, sure.”

The gym manager stuttered as Lee Jangwoo approached and bowed his waist.

“Huff, huff. Senior, I learned a lot. You’re amazing.”

“Nah. I’m a newbie here too.”

“Really?”

“Yeah. The other seniors are much better.”

Lee Jangwoo’s expression looked complicated at Yoo-hyun’s words.

“So you were holding back on me. I didn’t even know…”

He bowed his waist toward the gym members and muttered.

“Thank you for your consideration, seniors.”

“…”

The gym seniors fell silent for a moment.

There were not many people who could face Lee Jangwoo here.

The gym manager quickly resolved the situation.

“Yoo-hyun, come to my room for a moment.”

“Yes. Okay.”

Yoo-hyun wiped his sweat and answered.

A few minutes later, in the gym manager’s office.

The gym manager pushed the documents on the table forward and said,

“Yoo-hyun, you just need to sign here.”

“Manager, I told you I’m not going to the tournament. And I’m on a business trip at that time.”

“You can take one day off. You still have a few months left.”

“Still. I’m really not interested.”

It was true that Yoo-hyun had worked out intensely at the gym, but the tournament was a different story.

That was for people who had real dreams and ran for them.

For Yoo-hyun, martial arts was just a hobby.

The gym manager seemed to know Yoo-hyun’s thoughts and changed his approach.

“We have a quota for the gym. If you don’t go, someone else can’t go either.”

“There are other people.”

“Pros can’t go. And we can’t just send anyone.”

Yoo-hyun sighed at the gym manager’s persistent pleading.

He could see through his lies, but he couldn’t refuse when he went this far.

He had to do his duty as he had received a lot of help.

“I might lose in the first round, you know.”

“That’s fine. You’re just filling in the numbers.”

“Yes. Fine.”

In the end, Yoo-hyun signed.

The corner of the gym manager’s mouth curled up.

Yoo-hyun spent the rest of his time leisurely after sweating at the gym.

And the next day, Yoo-hyun got on his way to work for a change.

He had agreed to go to Hansung Tower for this week to follow up on the Apple product review.

He didn’t have much to do, so his steps were very light on his way to work.

Of course, his hands were full of gifts.

Yoo-hyun arrived at work and put the paper bag with gifts on his desk.

The desk full of paper bags contrasted sharply with the empty seat next to him.

“He cleaned up nicely.”

Yoo-hyun looked at Park Seungwoo’s empty seat for a moment and turned his head.

He saw something inside his slightly open desk drawer.

Rattle

He opened the drawer and a letter envelope and a wrapped box popped out.

Yoo-hyun sat down and opened the letter envelope.

-To my beloved mentee Yoo-hyun

Yoo-hyun, your life mentor is leaving for a long journey for MBA

I will be an example for you…

It was a long letter written in several pages

And he wrote it by hand with care

He could see that he had struggled for a long time with it

He couldn’t help but smile at the thought of him

“I told you to relax and do it casually”

Maybe it was his nature to be passionate that he couldn’t change easily

Yoo-hyun opened the gift box next to him

There was a fairly expensive fountain pen inside

He didn’t have any use for it, but he appreciated his heart

Yoo-hyun was holding the fountain pen and recalling the moments he had with Park Seungwoo when

Choi Minhee, the assistant manager, came over and greeted him first

“You’re here, Yoo-hyun”

“Yes, manager. I’m back alive”

Yoo-hyun got up from his seat and greeted her warmly

She saw the letter on his desk and asked casually

“Don’t you miss Park?”

“What’s there to miss?”

Yoo-hyun shrugged as if nothing happened

Kim Hyunmin, the team leader who was behind him, jumped in

“Yoo-hyun is right. Why bother about someone who’s gone?”

Yoo-hyun took out a chocolate from the paper bag and handed it to him

“That’s right. It’s good to have one less mouth, right?”

“Oh my, what is this?”

Choi Minhee was surprised as she took the chocolate

Kim Hyunmin laughed loudly

“Hahaha. He’s not just one mouth. He’s like two or three mouths”

Yoo-hyun followed up at that timing

“Team leader, then why don’t you buy us lunch today to celebrate?”

“How did the story go that way?”

Choi Minhee caught the ball that Yoo-hyun rolled

“That’s great. Let’s talk about the photo shoot while we eat”

“Why are you doing this too, Choi assistant manager?”

Kim Younggil, who came behind him, joined in with good timing

“Then I’ll meet Yoo-hyun and our client and match our lunch time”

“Yeah. What can I not buy? Let’s go”

In the end, the goal was decided by Kim Hyunmin’s sigh

Yoo-hyun raised his thumb right away

“As expected, team leader”

“You’re worse than Park”

Kim Hyunmin stuck out his tongue at Yoo-hyun

Yoo-hyun handed out chocolates to his team members and sat down

He was going to relax, but there was something that bothered him right away

Tap tap tap tap

It was when Yoo-hyun was typing fast on his laptop

Kim Younggil, who came behind him, said

“Yoo-hyun, it’s time to go to the client’s office”

“Yes. Just a second. I’m done”

He sent the email and closed his laptop and got up

Kim Younggil stuck out his tongue at Yoo-hyun

“What are you doing so hard?”

“I just had something to check”

“Really? I thought you were working hard because you looked so distracted”

“What work do I have here? I’m just going to relax and go”

Kim Younggil smiled at Yoo-hyun’s words

“Of course you should”

“Then let’s go”

Yoo-hyun smiled and gestured forward
