Chapter 3: A Meeting with Fate đâ¨
After class ended, Park Jisong walked out of the campus alone.
His bag hung loosely on his shoulder, but his mind was heavyâ
filled with new faces, a new placeâŚ
and the image of that tall, unfamiliar man he couldn't forget.
A cool breeze swept past the college gate đ.
Jisong stopped for a moment and checked his watch.
"I'm getting lateâŚ"
he murmured to himself.
Just as he stepped forward to cross the roadâ
"Stop!"
A deep, firm voice cut through the noise.
Jisong froze and turned around.
It was him.
Tall, broad-shouldered, perfectly composedâ
with eyes so deep they felt impossible to ignore.
Song Yeonjun.
Jisong's heart skipped a beat đ.
It's really himâŚ
Behind Yeonjun, a black luxury car stood waiting.
The driver looked nervous.
Driver:
"Young Master, the meeting time is approaching."
Yeonjun didn't take his eyes off Jisong.
Yeonjun (calmly):
"You were about to cross the road.
A car was coming."
Only then did Jisong realizeâ
he had been so lost in thought
that he hadn't noticed the oncoming vehicle at all.
Jisong (bowing slightly):
"Thank you⌠I didn't notice."
Yeonjun gave a faint smile đ.
It was brief, but it carried weight.
Yeonjun:
"You're a college student?"
Jisong:
"Yes⌠today is my first day."
Yeonjun paused for a second.
A spark of interest flashed in his eyes â¨.
Yeonjun:
"First day⌠and already so lost?"
Jisong smiled shyly.
Jisong:
"Just a little."
Suddenly, Yeonjun's phone vibrated đą.
The screen displayed one wordâ
Chairman.
He answered the call.
Yeonjun:
"Yes, I'm on my way."
After ending the call, he looked back at Jisong.
Yeonjun (in a low voice):
"Take care of yourself, Park Jisong."
Jisong froze completely.
"H-How do you know my name?"
Yeonjun only smiledâ
a quiet, unreadable smile đ.
He didn't answer.
He stepped into the car đ,
and the vehicle slowly disappeared down the road.
Jisong remained standing thereâ
heart pounding,
mind filled with questions.
He knew my nameâŚ
Who is he⌠really? đ¤
As the car vanished from sight,
one thing became certainâ
This meeting was not the last. đâ¨
