Chapter 257
Too Much Is As Bad As Too Little
“Hmm.”
Kim Jin-ah, who had been listening quietly, was dumbfounded.
At first, he had sweet-talked her by saying he could help with the purchase of national land…
And now he crosses his legs and tells her to look elsewhere?
‘If this were the old days, I might have played along.’
Kim Jin-ah was clever.
Even during her first meeting with Ju Dong-hoon.
Her intuition was so sharp she instantly realized he wasn’t a low-tier hunter.
How could someone like her not know what the mayor, Shin Ju-hyuk, wanted?
“As you know, there’s a lake included in that national land you requested. It’s a lake with such an amazing view that numerous investors are already eyeing it. Hahaha.”
He was telling her to cooperate.
To get the land that Otherworld wanted, she should follow his lead.
‘But.’
Was it necessary?
A smile formed on Kim Jin-ah’s lips.
Not a gentle smile, but a cold one.
She was the vice guild master of the group Otherworld.
Even national leaders would treat her as a VIP and grovel when she visited.
Because she held that kind of position.
Because she had ‘power.’
It seemed this old politician couldn’t sense the rapidly changing times.
“You know, Mayor?”
“Haha, yes. Please go ahead.”
“Do you think I’m a joke?”
“…Excuse me?”
Shin Ju-hyuk visibly flustered at Kim Jin-ah’s direct tone.
“What do you mean…? How could I possibly think of someone who practically leads Otherworld as a joke? Haha.”
