"My uncle has reached retirement age, and it's time for him and his aunt to enjoy life."

In the evening, Deshan called Gu Yu and told him about this.

"I just feel that dad is not happy and a little lost." Deok-sun leaned against the cabinet with her knees hugged, worry evident in her words.

"You will definitely feel uncomfortable. After working so hard for so long, you suddenly have nothing to do. However, once you get used to it, it will be fun to let your uncle and aunt travel more and pick up the interests you lost when you were young. You should comfort your uncle more."

"I know. I am their most beloved little daughter."

Deok-sun is indeed worthy of being called a caring little cotton-padded jacket. Last year, when Yihwa suffered from menopausal syndrome, Deok-sun always ran home, took her mother to eat delicious food, go shopping, do beauty, hair and manicure, and make her happy, which made Sung Dong-il very envious.

Gu Yu comforted her on the phone. In the past two days, he has been in Midtown Manhattan, New York, the de facto Wall Street, handling some company investment matters and meeting with some important investors, entrepreneurs, politicians and congressmen.

After hanging up the phone, Gu Yu called his secretary in.

"Cancel all the plans for today and tomorrow, arrange a flight to Seoul now, and have the driver wait for me downstairs."

There is a 14-hour time difference between the United States and South Korea. It is now a little after eleven o'clock in the evening in Seoul, while it is a little after nine o'clock in the morning in New York.

On the way to the airport, Gu Yu was considering whether to call the president of Hanyi Bank to disclose his relationship with Cheng Dongyi.

Honorary retirement sounds good, but in reality, Korean companies are persuading a group of middle-aged and older employees to retire in order to streamline costs and sacrifice personal interests to create maximum value for the company, so as to make room for cheap and easy-to-use young labor.

It’s good that my uncle has retired and can enjoy his life, but there are some regrets that he should be made up for.

"Please contact President Zheng of Hanil Bank for me. I will board the plane in half an hour."

Gu Yu picked up the phone and called Li Chengyi, general manager of Yucheng Capital’s Seoul branch.

He had already gone to bed but lost all sleepiness when the phone rang, because a private call must be about something important. Sure enough, it was the president's call. The president was in the United States and probably only went to work at this time.

Li Chengyi immediately began to contact President Zheng, then asked the driver to prepare the car and asked his wife to notify the assistant.

"Hello, President Zheng, I'm Li Chengyi. Our President Jiang has something urgent to discuss with you. Please contact him immediately."

"Ah? President Jiang, is there something urgent? At this hour..."

"The president is in the United States, but I guess it's something urgent. I'm on my way to your house now. I don't have time. The president will be boarding the plane soon."

After several phone calls, Li Chengyi finally contacted the president of Hanyi Bank. He didn't have time to talk nonsense, so he explained the situation and hung up.

"Hello, President Jiang."

"Hello, President Zheng, I'm sorry to contact you at this time."

"Hey, President Jiang, don't worry about it. I don't know if there is something urgent going on."

"I just heard that Hanil Bank will have an honorary retirement ceremony tomorrow, and my uncle Sung Dong-il is on the list."

"This... this must be a misunderstanding. Is it Section Chief Cheng Dongyi from the Supervision Department? Is he your uncle? I've never heard him mention this before.

Don't worry, there must be something wrong with the list. I will immediately question the person in charge and will give you a satisfactory explanation.

Director Cheng is conscientious and responsible in his work. To be honest, after his honorary retirement, the bank is in need of experienced and capable employees like Director Cheng. I will definitely make proper arrangements for his position. "

President Zheng on the other end of the phone had his hair standing on end. How could he have offended South Korea's hottest emerging chaebol without realizing it?

Moreover, I don’t know how many interest groups President Jiang on the opposite side has connected with. This won’t be my last day as the president, will I be sued by the prosecutor tomorrow? President Zheng was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat.

"President Zheng, I'm not contacting you to hold you responsible. Uncle has worked hard for 30 years. He should enjoy his life. This is what my fiancée, Uncle Dongyi's daughter, and I want."

"I really didn't know anything about you before. Congratulations! I'm sure you and Section Chief Cheng's daughter are a perfect match. What do you need me to do? Don't worry, I'll do it!"

President Zheng was trying hard to stay calm at the moment, but he was actually very panicked inside. It turned out that it was not only his uncle, but also his father-in-law. If this was not handled properly, he would be doomed in the future.

"He has worked hard for Hanil Bank for 30 years. I'm sure Hanil Bank has carefully prepared a retirement ceremony for him, right?"

President Zheng hung up the phone with a nod, calmed down, and slapped himself hard, which scared his wife beside him.

Why didn't you check it out? You almost ruined your career.

I quickly called my subordinates to arrange for tomorrow's retirement ceremony.

At this time, Li Chengyi also rushed to President Zheng's house. Seoul is not that big, and they are also in the financial circle, so they have had many dealings before.

"President Zheng, what's going on? Why is the president looking for you at this time?"

President Zheng asked the butler to invite everyone to the living room on the first floor. At this moment, his face was still a little pale.

"Brother Li, you came at the right time. You must help me."

President Zheng seemed to have seen a savior. He grabbed Li Chengyi's hand and quickly told him the situation.

Li Chengyi rolled his eyes after hearing this. The president's fiancée? Cheng Dongyi's daughter?

As subordinates, how could they not inquire about their leader's preferences? Li Chengyi immediately started brainstorming, wondering if it was Section Chief Cheng from the company's administrative personnel department. She was recruited by the president himself. Someone said that they saw the two of them riding in the same car.

"Brother Li? Manager Li?" President Zheng shouted anxiously.

"Oh, I was just thinking about something. President Zheng doesn't need to worry too much. Since the president said that he won't pursue responsibility, it should be fine. However, President Zheng still needs to find someone responsible for this matter."

"Of course, of course, I have thought about it."

"Also, Section Chief Cheng's retirement ceremony must be held. What time is the ceremony?"

"It's 9 am, President Jiang just said he was boarding the plane. Do we need to come back to attend the ceremony?"

"It's too late in terms of time, and it's impossible for President Jiang to attend the ceremony without prior notice."

"Do you want me to postpone the time?"

"Don't do that, President Zheng. The list of honorary retirees was only announced yesterday, right?"

"Yes."

"Then I guess the president just got the news. He called you because he hopes that Section Chief Cheng will not have any regrets. So everything has to be arranged in advance. The ceremony doesn't have to be grand, but it has to be touching, profound, and traceable. President Zheng, do you understand?"

President Zheng thought carefully for a while, suddenly realized, and kept thanking Li Chengyi.

"What a fool! How could such a person be the president of a bank if he didn't have a relationship with the Minister of Finance?"

Li Chengyi sat in the back seat of the car with his eyes closed, thinking about what had just happened, as the car was driving towards the company.

"Go down to the company and find the information of Ms. Cheng Deshan from the Human Resources and Administration Department." Li Chengyi instructed the assistant sitting in the passenger seat.

As soon as Li Chengyi got Cheng Deshan's employment information, he started to look through it.

In Fenghuangdang Alley in Ssangmun-dong, Li Chengyi stared at the address for a while.

It seems that it is her. Fortunately, I knew before that she had a special relationship with the president, and she has always been treated with courtesy. She was promoted to section chief just half a year after being hired as a regular employee.

I didn't expect it to be the president's wife. How should I behave at the retirement ceremony for the section chief tomorrow? I can't make it too obvious, otherwise it will go against the president's wishes.

But doing nothing is definitely not an option. The president's wife has to curry favor with him, which really tests her ability to flatter.
