"Tomorrow morning, at nine, you have a meeting with a newly founded company in the city. Following that, at three in the afternoon, you also have a face to face consultation with President Choi from the "Golden Age" online gaming company."

Inside the office, Namjoon went over the itinerary for the next day with Jungkook, who nodded approvingly when he was done, "Go make the necessary preparations."

"I will." Namjoon nodded before he began to take his leave to prepare, however, Jungkook suddenly called out to stop him, "Hold on."

"Is there something else you'd like to add, Boss?" Namjoon questioned.

"I just remembered that your sister is a doctor, isn't she?" Jungkook asked.

"Ah, yes, she is. My family operates a Traditional Medicine practice." Namjoon replied.

Thinking it over for a while, Jungkook then asked, "Can you do me favour, and help me ask your sister how to take care of someone who had a stomach bug. I'd also like to know, what are some of the things to pay attention to for someone who experiences joint pains during the winter."

"Is it about grandpa Jeon? Do you want me to ask my sister to make some time, and pay him a visit?" Namjoon asked somewhat doubtfully. He had the details of his health conditions memorised quite well, and to his knowledge, the older man did not suffer from such ailments.

"No, it's not him. It's your Boss' wife." Jungkook stated.
Boss' wife.
Namjoon was left a blank. Jungkook, in response, added that it was the young man to whom he had delivered lunch previously.

"I'll help you ask right away, then. Is there anything else you'd like me to ask about?" Namjoon took out his phone.

"No, just those two things... to find out what I should watch out for in his diet, and to......" Suddenly pausing, Namjoon thought he might as well ask in detail for himself, "Nevermind that, I'll ask the questions myself, so just help me contact her."

"Yes, Boss." Namjoon immediately called his older sister, explaining the reason for his call before handing to phone over to Jungkook.

Jungkook described Taehyung's condition to the person on the other line for a while, then listened when the other gave their recommendations, fastidiously taking notes. He then, very carefully, explained a few of Taehyung's habits and favourite foods, to guarantee he received the best solutions.

Looking on from beside him, Namjoon exclaimed internally: Boss, don't be so meek!! This in no way resembles your usual aloof demeanour! Right now, you're practically a proper man of 'Twenty-four Pillars of Filial Piety'! The difference is so huge, it's bordering on terrifying!

[Twenty-four Pillars of Filial Piety. It's a term used as a description for an exemplary person.]

After thoroughly understanding the advice given during the consultation, Jungkook gave back Namjoon his phone, picked up his own jacket then said, "I had your sister help me prepare some ingredients for medicinal cuisine. She told me she'd bring them back with her to your family's home tonight, so tomorrow you'll pick them up and bring them over to me."

"No problem!" Namjoon nodded, as Boss elaborated on what the items were.

"Your bonus this month will be doubled," Jungkook stated before leaving the office.

"! ! !" Namjoon's eyes shone in an instant, A doubled bonus! Oh my god! It's like I practically won the lottery!

Thank you, Mrs Boss!! Namjoon chanted, straightened his back, and got himself back to work.
