Business Trip (3)
"Waaaaah!"
"There, there~ Mommy will be back soon, okay~?"
"Waaaaaaaaah!"
As soon as we arrived at the daycare center inside the building, Seoi started to cry. She was only a year old; she had no way of understanding her mother’s heart, nor would she ever. She was simply crying at the raw fact of being separated from her parent.
"Then, I'll leave her in your care~"
"Yes, of course~"
The Manager and the daycare director spoke so casually. I suppose this sort of thing was common for them.
"I'm so sorry~ She was so noisy, wasn't she~?"
"Not at all. I've heard that babies need to cry a lot. Besides, it's cute. The way she cries because she's separated from her mom."
"Even so~ I'm worried that when she grows up, she won't even pretend to listen to me~"
"Ahaha…."
We took the elevator up and arrived at the office. Perhaps because it was a high-end facility with its own daycare, it was much more spacious than our own company.
"Oh, you're here."
"Hello~"
A man wearing a suit with a 'Manager' name tag came out to guide us.
"You can wait in here."
"Yes~"
There were two meetings in total. Today was about the down payment. Tomorrow, we would discuss the specific details of how to implement the project.
"You can use the rest of the time to get some work done~ You brought your laptops, right?"
"Yes, we did."
"Then I've sent over the organized meeting materials, so please take a look~"
"Understood."
Now that I mention it, our company is an AI consulting firm. To be precise, we advise companies that are introducing AI—which parts to implement, how to use it, and so on. It’s a specialized field. Having been here for nearly a year, I’d picked up enough by watching over everyone’s shoulders to understand the basics.
"It's almost time to go in~ Are you ready~? You need to be prepared in case they ask you questions too, Junsu~"
"Understood."
"Please, come this way~"
The conference room was on a completely different level from ours. It wasn't just a whiteboard; it had an 80-inch OLED TV, glass walls designed to be visible from the outside, and soundproof wall paneling. It was a truly magnificent room.
'Wow….'
I was impressed by the HDMI cable pulled out right where the laptop was supposed to sit. At our office, we had to crawl on the floor to dig one out. I guess there's a reason they're a mid-sized enterprise.
"Wow~ This place is nice!"
"Should we change ours to be like this too?"
"I think we could, right?"
Four men walked in after us. I wondered why they were so impressed, but then I realized they were on a business trip just like us. What kind of company holds a meeting in another company's building?
"Well then, shall we start with introductions?"
The joy of the high-end equipment lasted only a moment; I started to get nervous as the meeting began immediately. I opened the meeting minutes template and prepared to record.
'Wait a minute.'
Taking notes manually is fine, but we are a company skilled in using AI. I suddenly thought, what if I recorded today's meeting using the AI we were here to sell and showed it to them? I didn't want to disrupt the flow of the meeting, so I decided to record it on my own for now.
"My name is Manager Jung Yumin. It's a pleasure to meet you."
"Yes, nice to meet you~ My name is Team Leader Min Byeong-gwan."
"…!"
Don't smile… don't smile…. If you smile, you're dead….
"I'm Junsu Ahn. It's a pleasure to meet you."
""Wow~""
"Now, I will introduce the OA-related AI."
After the introductions, including mine as the rookie, the meeting began in earnest. As expected, the Manager spoke with a sharp, clear tone, explaining why this price was proposed, what services we would provide, and how the price compared to our competitors—all in an easy-to-understand way. She didn't miss a single word from the materials I had received.
"Uh… I've heard you well… We're going to sign the contract anyway, but could you show us a practical demonstration instead of just a video?"
"Practical… performance…? Just a moment~"
"……."
The Manager looked flustered as she looked at the meeting materials. She had tips for handling various questions, but there were absolutely no tips for a live demonstration.
"Let me prepare for a moment…?"
"No, if you don't have one, you don't have to."
"No! I do! It just takes a little time to set up…."
They were going to sign the contract anyway, so we didn't *have* to show them. But if we truly couldn't show them, it would be a blow to the credibility of this AI. It would be a loss for both the company that made the AI and our company that signed the contract.
"…Manager."
"Yes…?"
This was the first time I’d seen the Manager this flustered. Well, she had prepared so hard, only to be caught off guard where she least expected it—she had no choice but to be rattled.
'…Is it okay to use this?'
I was glad I had recorded it with the AI just in case. Looking at it now, it had filled in everything up to the current point quite well. I’d have to delete the parts where she was flustered, though.
"Manager…."
"Yes…?"
"I have the meeting minutes I made using the AI… should I show them this?"
"Really…? When did you start using it?"
"From the very beginning."
"Then, can you explain it?"
"For now, I suppose…?"
The Manager regained her composure and cleared her throat.
"Then, we will show you the meeting minutes we created using AI for today's meeting. Junsu, could you explain?"
"Yes. First, the screen you see now is the meeting minutes I wrote myself, and this is the meeting minutes the AI filled out based on the template. Both were created by recording this meeting and pressing the generate button."
""Oh~""
Looking at it now, there were a few typos, but the atmosphere was clearly positive. After demonstrating a few more functions, I felt I should show something related to data processing, so I entered some random numbers and demonstrated how it explained what they were.
"Oh~ That's good~"
"It's amazing to see it in person!"
"Then, how does the maintenance work?"
"Ah, the maintenance is……."
The meeting ended after about two hours, and we stepped outside. Those people had another meeting right after, so only the Manager and I left.
"Junsu~"
"Yes…."
"Do you want to get some fresh air for a moment~?"
"Yes. That sounds good."
However, contrary to the successful result, the Manager's expression didn't look very good.
"Junsu."
We were on the rooftop where the smoking area was. Neither the Manager nor I smoked, but we came up because it was a place to rest. Throughout the climb, the Manager hadn't said a word.
"Yes—ugh?!"
"You did so well~ Thank you~"
"What?! Yes…."
Her scary expression melted away as she hugged me. The mix of her pleasant scent and the baby scent from Seoi almost made me lose my breath.
"It's been so long, I didn't even think about that… Oh my."
She pulled away after hugging me to her heart's content. She seemed embarrassed herself, giving a sheepish smile as she brushed her hair back.
"I'm sorry~ I got too excited~"
"No. It's fine…."
"How did you think of that~? If it weren't for you, Junsu, I would have been in big trouble~"
"I just… thought it might be good to record this with AI, just in case…."
"You did well~"
"……Yes."
The Manager patted me. It felt strange, just like when I used to be praised by my mother. I felt embarrassed for no reason.
"Oh my, I made a mistake again…."
"No… I like things like this."
"Hmm~? What does that mean~?"
"No, it's nothing. I'm sorry."
"It's okay~ Thanks to you, I survived~ Let's have dinner together later~"
"Understood."
Anyway, I was glad I got praised. 'Right. I had to sleep with this person, didn't I.' But the fact that there was something more important just occurred to me.
"Thank you. That was a great meal."
"It was nothing~"
Dinner was the famous pork soup and rice. The Manager had wanted to go to a raw fish restaurant, but she said she couldn't because of Seoi.
"Did Seoi eat well?"
"Uuu!"
Of course, she didn't eat rice; she drank formula instead. The more I see her, the cuter she is.
"Shall we head back now~ I'm tired~"
"Understood."
We called a taxi and went straight to the accommodation. While the Manager was unpacking, I held Seoi.
"Ah, Junsu~ Could you… turn around for a second…."
"Ah, yes!"
I was so tired I had forgotten. The fact that the Manager and I were of different genders.
"…!"
But there was one more fact I had overlooked. As luck would have it, there was a mirror right where I turned.
"Whew…."
"……."
Even if I didn't want to see it, it was visible. Of course, I could have squeezed my eyes shut, but as a man, I couldn't bring myself to do that. A deep beige bra inside her shirt. The Manager took off that bra.
"…!"
The sight made me swallow hard. I pretended to look at Seoi, but I watched her take off her pants. They were the same deep beige color.
"Uuu…."
"There, there~ Mommy is right behind you~ It's okay~"
"It's done~"
When I turned back, the Manager was wearing a tight-fitting dress. It was so tight that I could see everything underneath—her nipples included. …I was surprised that her areolas were quite large.
"Uwaaang!"
"Oh, there, there~ Did you think Mommy disappeared~?"
"……."
I handed Seoi over and took off my jacket to change clothes.
"Junsu~ I'm going to go wash up… so you can change in the meantime~"
"Yes. Understood…."
The Manager walked into the bathroom with her underwear naturally in hand. Inside the bathroom, Seoi laughed and cried in turns, making a noisy sound. It really is quite amazing.
"Whew~ You can go in~"
"Understood."
While the Manager was showering, I finished changing. Maybe it was because I had washed up, but the clothes that were already tight felt even tighter, revealing my outline.
"Haa…."
I absolutely must not get an erection. Even with the baby there, if I did, I didn't know how I would be treated. But my half-erect cock was already speaking for my feelings.
"Whew…."
"Are you out~?"
"Ah, yes…."
As soon as she came out, the Manager was breastfeeding Seoi again. The chest area had a flap, so it seemed easy to breastfeed the baby. No wonder it was so quiet.
"Oh my~ Junsu, you're so naughty~"
"Ah… I'm truly sorry."
I must have been staring again without realizing it. At first, it was 90% curiosity about breastfeeding and 10% being drawn to the Manager's chest, but this time it was the exact opposite. Only the Manager's chest caught my eye.
"U…."
"Oh, you're sleepy~ Could you hold her for a moment~?"
"Yes…."
As I cleared the blankets on the bed and laid Seoi down, the Manager covered her with an extremely thin towel. There was no baby bed, so she had to sleep between us. …Right. There was only one bed here, too.
"Then now— Oh my, oh my…!"
"Manager…?! Are you okay?"
"Ah, haha… I'm fine. This happens sometimes~"
Suddenly, the Manager's dress became damp. To be precise, the chest area became damp.
"It's called milk let-down… it just comes out on its own~"
"Ah, aha…."
To see such a rare sight—I should have stayed calm, but my ears turned red.
"What should I do to stop it…?"
"You… you have to press on the chest…."
"Ah… aha…."
"If you don't mind, Junsu…."
Just like when she was flustered in the conference room earlier, the Manager's face turned bright red. Seeing that, I turned red along with her.
"Will you press it for me…?"
"Me…?"
"I don't have the strength… I have a device at home… but I left it behind…? Ah~ If you think it's dirty, you don't have to do it~ It'll stop on its own in a little while anyway~"
"No. I'll do it. You need to get some sleep quickly."
"R-really…? Then… I'll leave it to you~?"
Right. This is a measure to stop the milk let-down. There is absolutely no ulterior motive involved. …Probably.
