Y/N had been reborn.

In order to wait for an empty slot in the rebirth quota, she had queued up in the underworld for 500 years.

It couldn't be helped. At that time, the battle was intense. As the leader of the bandits who advocated unity and was kind and loyal, how could she see her brothers die a horrible death?

All of a sudden, she couldn't control herself and... killed all the enemies.

Otherwise, she probably wouldn't have to queue up for such a long time.

Y/N lay straight on the large and spacious bed, keeping her eyes fixed on the ceiling. If not for the fact that her chest was heaving up and down, others would probably think that she was dead.

All of a sudden, a palm was swung at her face without warning, immediately leaving a handprint on her fair face.

"Still pretending to be dead, eh? B*tch, how dare you seduce my fiancé? I must beat you up and kill you today!"

The hot, stinging pain in her face made Y/N shudder before she snapped back to her senses immediately.

She focused her vision and saw the haughty and domineering woman standing in front of her.

The makeup on her face was very heavy and she looked just like a ghost from Hell. She was dressed skimpily and all her limbs were exposed.

At this moment, the woman was about to slap her again but Y/N reacted quickly as she turned over and sprung up, kicking the woman with all her might and causing her to fly.

"Where did this shrew come from? How dare you hit me?"

While speaking, she looked around and was suddenly stunned. 'Where in hell is this?'

There were a lot of men and women dressed in strange clothing surrounding her in the house. All of them were either surprised or gloating at her.

In addition, there were also many bizarre-looking things on display around. They were black and illuminated.

Although those things were strange to her, she felt a sense of familiarity.

She remembered that the employees of the underworld told her that the world that she was going to be resurrected in would be different from the world she was from. They allowed her to possess someone else's body because they were scared that she could not get used to it.

Hence...

Y/N was still digesting the memory in her head, but the woman she kicked away just now had already charged towards her aggressively and was about to slap her. Y/N's eyelids twitched and she reached out to drag the woman by her arm. With raised brows, she questioned indifferently, "Do you have a death wish?"

Lina would have never expected that the weakling Y/N would suddenly behave like a completely different person. Not only did she kick her, she even threatened her. Overwhelmed with pique, she barked, "Y/N, you're the one who has a death wish. Director Li, you must chase this little b*tch out of set today. Otherwise, I won't go on with the shoot!"

The surrounding people began talking and comforting Lina.

Y/N pinched the spot in the middle of her forehead. She suddenly recalled that she was... a celebrity now.

The set was similar to the opera houses of her era.

She was the leader of the Black Cloud Fortress, whose name would make others shudder in fear. Yet, she actually became a lowly actress who was a pushover that others would trample all over. Outrageous!

'However, isn't the original owner of this body already married?'

'Her husband is wealthy but she ended up in such a pathetic state.'

'Yeah, it seems that she isn't likable and her husband's family doesn't acknowledge her.'

She quickly filtered all the memories of the original owner before looking up at the person in front of her. "Are you Lina?"

Lina, who was still threatening the director, was immediately stunned and a look of puzzlement appeared in her menacing eyes after hearing those words.

"Are you crazy? Don't you know who I am?"

"I'm not crazy." She paused and continued with a solemn expression, "You are."

Lina's face was suddenly twisted and she threatened, "Director Li, I don't care how suitable she is for this role. As long as Y/N is part of the cast, I will never return to set again."

Director Li looked extremely conflicted and he seemed to have been put in a spot. Y/N was recommended to him by a friend. He admired her for her talent and good acting chops but now...

Lina raised her chin a little and said arrogantly, "What's the matter? Director Li, do you dare to offend Third Young Master Kim too? Fine, I'll call Third Young Master now."

Upon hearing that Lina was going to call Third Young Master Kim, Director Li immediately smiled deferentially and said, "Lina, it's just a trivial matter. Why do you have to alarm Third Young Master?"

Third Young Master Kim was the investor of the drama series that they were starring in and Lina was his girlfriend. If she were to complain to him...

After hesitating for a while, Director Li looked at Y/N awkwardly and said, "Well Y/N, after all, you were the one who kicked Lina in the first place. Hurry and apologize to Lina. I believe Lina won't hold it against you."

She knew clearly whether or not the detestable Lina would hold it against her, but since Lina had slapped her, Y/N was bent on holding it against her!

"Why should I apologize?"

Not expecting that answer from Y/N, who was usually obedient, Director Li said in surprise, "Y/N, after all, Lina..."

To their surprise, Lina suddenly zoomed past them like a gust of wind and yelled coquettishly, "Third Young Master, there's a D-list celebrity who bullied me and kicked me when we were filming. My stomach hurts so badly now. Third Young Master~"

As soon as the crew saw Third Young Master Kim, they took a step back one after another and secretly felt scared for Y/N, especially after hearing Lina's words.

They thought, 'It's over for Y/N today. Everyone knows how vengeful this malicious and sharp-tongued Third Young Master Kim is. He's also very protective.'

No matter how long he would stay interested in Lina for, she was at least still his girlfriend.

'Third Young Master Kim?'

Y/N quickly found the information about this prestigious Third Young Master and at the thought of his relationship with the original owner, she couldn't help but curse.

Kai happened to be near the studio when he received a call from Lina's manager, so he decided to drop by and take a look.

(Kai was known as the Third Young Master Kim, as he was the third son of the Kim family.)

(P.S. Kai's real name is Kim Jongin)

Lina was rather noisy and talkative but no matter what, she was still currently his girlfriend. Those who bullied her would be offending him.

Upon hearing her words, Kai's face turned hostile and he asked, "Who bullied you?"

Lina looked even more aggrieved as she pointed at Y/N and said sobbingly, "We were supposed to film the scene of me thrashing things out with the home wrecker and slapping her is a mandatory scene. Besides, I only touched her face gently but she kicked me!"

While mentioning this, Lina tried her best to force some tears and pointed at the shoe print on her shirt. "Third Young Master, you gave me this dress and I specially wore it to set for this scene. Third Young Master, this woman has always been unfriendly to me. Today, she even..."

Y/N lifted her eyelids and looked at Lina coldly.

She looked decent but she had a vicious heart.

'Gently touched my face?'

'Where did the handprint on my face come from?'

He had some recollection of the dress that Lina was wearing. Kai looked up and gazed at Y/N coolly.

'She's beautiful!'

'Eh?'

'Why does this woman seem a little familiar?'

While he was feeling a little confused, Lina began adding fuel to the fire. "Third Young Master, putting aside what that woman did to me, she's very disrespectful to you too. Director Li wanted her to apologize to me on your account but she actually refuted."

'Oh?'

Kai could not be bothered to figure out why she seemed so familiar.

He was a famous and authoritative figure of status in Seoul, whom everyone would greet politely. Yet, this woman actually disregarded him.

Pointing at Y/N, Kai said in a tone that was full of annoyance, "I don't want to hit a woman, so you'd better come here and apologize."

'Oh wow!'

'This rascal is really haughty. He wants me to apologize, huh?'

Folding her arms, Y/N whistled like a gangster and said arrogantly, "So what if I don't apologize?"

'This woman is really haughty.'

Kai stared at Y/N's pretty face with a frown.

He really hated women who were arrogant and self-righteous.

"Sure, you can choose not to apologize, but I naturally have my ways to make you do so."

All members of the Kim Family had their personal bodyguards. Knowing that Kai was definitely going to get physical, Lina looked at Y/N gloatingly, feeling extremely triumphant.

'See, Third Young Master still cares about me after all.'

Kai waved his hands and the two tall and burly bodyguards behind him had already begun walking towards Y/N.

The people in the room quickly turned away as they were afraid of witnessing a bloodbath. In the end, Y/N did not scream at all, even after a long time. Instead...

Y/N picked up the broom without hesitation and swung it at Kai's body.

No one expected Y/N to have the guts to hit Kai, including Kai himself. Hence, he only recovered from the shock and realized what was going on when the broomstick landed on his body.

The burning pain spread throughout his entire body, causing him to jump on the spot and yell, "How dare you hit me? You're tired of living, aren't you?"

Kai was completely enraged and he had already clenched his fists, all ready to attack. However, before he could even touch Y/N, she grabbed him backhandedly and easily restrained him.

"You, you, how dare you hit the Third Young Master of the Kim Family..."

Unable to move at all, Kai felt humiliated and infuriated to the point that his handsome face had turned red.

The others were petrified and stood still, especially Lina who was the nearest to the two of them. She managed to witness the entire scene up close and the sound of the broom falling on the body of Third Young Master Kim was still echoing in her ears.

"When I was a bandit, you were still nowhere to be found. You're showing off those pathetic skills of yours. Don't you find it embarrassing at all? All you do is bully others, eh? I even dare to hit the emperor, why would I be afraid of you? Since I'm back, I'll teach you a lesson on your brother's behalf!"

Kai, who was initially eager to rip Y/N into shreds, was suddenly stunned.

'On my brother's behalf?'

'My brother?'

'Wait, this woman is...Y/N?'

Damn it!

'I was just wondering why she seems so familiar. This woman is my Second Sister-in-law who almost has zero presence in the Kim Family. Since when did Y/N become so beautiful and so good at combat?'

While Kai was still overwhelmed with astonishment, the people around them had already begun hiding because Y/N had hit Kai, and they were afraid that they would get implicated even though they were innocent.

'She's out of her mind, Y/N is out of her mind. She actually dares to hit Third Young Master Kim!'

"Get in the car."

Y/N sternly reprimanded before pulling open the car door and getting inside, ignoring Lina and the others who were shuddering while looking at her.

'I'll teach these nobodies a lesson next time.'

Still taken aback by her domineering aura, Kai followed her into the car.

Kai was still dumbfounded but Y/N had already secretly begun sizing up the luxury car.

'So this is the unique mode of transport in this world!'

'Not bad, not bad, it's indeed faster than the transport in the world I came from.'

In fact, she was also a bit shocked.

To think that she had been an overbearing tyrant for 20 years in her past life and despite being a bandit, she still had countless suitors. Yet, in this world, she was already married and had become someone else's wife.

Looking at Kai from the corner of her eye, Y/N sighed a little.

However, she cherished her life very much because she had queued up for 500 years for the chance to be resurrected!

Spoiled heirs like Kai would end up squandering away all of the Kim Family's assets sooner or later.

At the very least, she was still the Second Young Madam of the Kim Family, and for the sake of her future luxurious and carefree life, she had to keep an eye on him.

When the car drove into a large mansion, Kai abruptly snapped back to his senses and realized that he had been hit.

He had been hit.

For the first time in 27 years of his life, Kai was hit by a woman!

Damn it!

"Y/N, you think you can act in Second Brother's name and throw your weight around in the Kim Family just because Second Brother isn't around? Let me tell you, that's impossible. Even if Second Brother is not around, you're in no place to call the shots in the Kim Family. Hurry up and kowtow thrice to apologize to me!"

(In accordance with the Kim family tradition, Kai has to respectfully call Taehyung "second brother" because Taehyung was the second son in the Kim family.)

'It takes him quite long to react.'

Y/N smiled contemptuously, ignoring Kai and pushing open the car door to get out.

Kai was even more infuriated when he saw her attitude. However, as soon as he spoke, he saw Y/N pulling out the branches that were used to hold the vines in place.

Thinking about the fact that he had been hit by the broom just now, he still felt some pain.

"You want me to apologize, right?"

Y/N casually knocked the tree branch against the tree, raising one of her eyebrows lightly with a nonchalant smile. There was a tinge of mischief in her voice.

Kai secretly swallowed some saliva and shivered, immediately feeling timid.

"Ahem, I can't be bothered to fight with you on the account that you're my Second Sister-in-law."

Y/N glanced at him indifferently and threw the branch on the ground before placing her hands behind her back and striding into the mansion in front of her.

Kai followed behind her, his gaze fixed on her back.

A year ago, Y/N looked for the Kim Family out of her own accord and asked them to fulfill the marriage agreement that Kai's grandfather had personally written.

Since his eldest brother was already married at the time, his Second Brother would naturally be the one to fulfill the agreement.

Kai and the other members of the Kim Family all had a vague impression of her.

She had always been timid and quiet. Whenever she returned home, she wouldn't dare to raise her head to look at anyone. Even during meals, she would wait for everyone to finish eating, before sneaking into the kitchen like a thief.

Rumor had it that she was still an extra actor despite having joined the entertainment industry for three years.

He had always thought that she was ugly but she turned out to be a beauty.

Her skin, in particular, was supple and tender.

However, was Y/N actually that impressive?

'Did her inner demon begin to grow and she started to stage an act with the family because she had been ignored by Second Brother for a long time?'

"Are your legs broken or were you born without them in the first place? Even those who are crippled can crawl faster than you."

Y/N's voice sounded again, and Kai touched his nose. Just as he was about to retort and insult her back, the spot on his body which had been hit by the broomstick began to hurt vaguely again.

'This woman is really... so damned evil!'

The entire Kim Family manor was quiet, with only a few servants carefully cleaning at the side.

The luxurious decor of the room had also caught Y/N's attention.

'It's beautiful. The furnishing style of this era is so special.'

She walked and looked around, touching here and there.

'This black thing is a TV set, right? It's amazing that the performances that opera singers star in can be seen by everyone through this.'

Kai secretly despised Y/N in his heart when he saw her sauntering around the yard like a big shot.

"Hey, Second Brother spent a bomb on that painting that he got from the auction. If you dare to dirty it, you'd better be careful, Second Brother will kill you!"

After hearing his words, Y/N glared daggers at Kai, causing him to feel a cold chill down his spine as he immediately kept his mouth shut.

'Damn it, why is this woman so impressive? I actually see Second Brother's shadow in her.'

"I'm going back to my room, call me when dinner is ready."

Pointing at his nose, Kai asked in disbelief, "You're actually making me inform you when it's time for dinner?"

Y/N squinted and questioned coldly, "Why? Do you have any objections?"

'Uh...'

The chilliness arose again.

Kai hurriedly shook his head and said, "I'll call you."

"That's more like it."

The Kim Family manor was very large. In addition to the main residence, there was a small mansion at the back that was dedicated to providing accommodation for the servants.

There were a total of four floors in the main residence and most of the rooms were empty.

Almost all of the masters of the house lived on the second and third floors.

Her room was at the very end of the second floor and was once used as a utility room.

Looking at the simple displays in the room, Y/N could hardly associate them with the luxurious furnishings downstairs.

However, the original owner had done a good job at cleaning the place and keeping it tidy.

Soon, her gaze fell on the photo frame on the bedside table.

It was a photo of a couple that had been enlarged.

'It's called a photograph in this era, right?'

The background was a festive red color and a man and a woman were standing side by side in the photo.

The barefaced young woman was extremely beautiful, and her smile was a little shy.

That woman was her.

To be precise, it was the former owner of this body.

The man beside her had a stern expression.

His features were exceptionally good-looking and his thin lips were pressed tightly together, without a single smile on his face.

In fact, he even looked a little disgusted and annoyed.

In her era, the owner of the world's best manor was a handsome man who was famous for his good looks. However, the man in the photo was even better looking than that manor owner.

'Is this Taehyung, my in-name husband, the Second Young Master of the Kim Family and the current CEO of the Kim Group?'

In the former owner's memory, Taehyung had gone to America to prepare for the setup of the new company after getting officially married to her. Since then, he had never returned.

'Good that he's not here, lest he get in the way of me committing adultery and looking for another man.'

In the hearts of thousands of women, Taehyung was the best candidate for a husband. He was wealthy, powerful, and good-looking. It was no wonder the original owner desperately wanted to marry him.

Unfortunately, the only memory of this man she had was the glimpse of him that she caught at the Civil Affairs Bureau.

Y/N was still organizing her thoughts when she heard a timely knock on the door.

When the door opened, she was greeted with Kai's demonic, handsome face.

At this moment, disgruntlement was written all over his face and he urged in displeasure, "It's time for dinner, hurry up."

Y/N did not answer him immediately. Instead, she pointed at herself and said, "Who am I?"

He thought, 'Is this woman out of her mind? She doesn't know who she is?'

"I'm asking you a question, hurry up."

Startled by her sudden holler, the dumbfounded Kai answered, "Y/N."

"And?"

"Second Brother's wife."

'Although Second Brother doesn't acknowledge you as his wife.'

Y/N did not miss the derision and contempt in his eyes at all. Smiling coolly, she lectured, "You're the son of a prestigious and rich family after all. You must have basic manners and etiquette. Remember to address me as your Second Sister-in-law in the future."

After saying that, she made her way down the stairs.

Kai stood rooted to the ground.

'I... I seem to have been defeated by Y/N's dominance again?'

There were many delicacies on the huge dining table.

Y/N was a bandit who placed huge emphasis on congeniality and she often demanded the basic, mandatory etiquette from the people around her.

When Kai took a seat, he saw Y/N eating the food in her bowl very elegantly.

She was eating very slowly, and every action of hers was pleasing to the eye, resembling that of the noble ladies and consorts in TV dramas.

"Hey, are you very good at martial arts?"

For a long time, he did not get an answer from Y/N. Kai frowned and began to find that she was getting increasingly haughty and arrogant.

"I asked you a question!"

After drinking a mouthful of soup, Y/N picked up the napkin by the table and wiped the corners of her mouth with it. She then drawled, "Don't talk when you're eating. Must I teach you this? It's basic common sense." At the mention of this, she glanced at him and added, "Also, I am your second sister-in-law, it's not illegal for me to hit you."

"..."

'I can't let such an arrogant woman stay in the Kim Family to harm Second Brother.'

While Kai was secretly thinking about his plan to chase Y/N out, he suddenly heard the sounds of a woman clamoring outside.

Kai, who was initially already full of pent up anger and irritation because of Y/N, slammed his chopsticks on the table after hearing the sounds. "Who has a death wish and decided to come to the Kim Family's manor to make a din?"

The butler hurried over and looked at Kai anxiously. "Third, Third Young Master, there's a woman outside the door claiming to be pregnant with your child. She wants you to take responsibility. Why...why don't..."

Kai asked with a furious expression, "Or else what?"

"Or else she will expose the matter to the media."

'Oh?'

Y/N drank a mouthful of juice, folded her arms, and leaned on the backrest of the chair. "I couldn't tell that you'd be so thoughtful as to create an heir early for the sake of the Kim Family, Third Young Master Kim."

'This vicious woman is adding insult to my injury!'

Kai said while gritting his teeth, "The child is not mine."

"We'll know whether the child is yours once you see her, won't we?" After saying that, she stood up and walked towards the sofa. "Uncle Zhang, take my future sister-in-law in and let us take a look at her."

"Y/N!"

Young Madam ignored Kai and stared at the hesitant butler who was standing at the door, her gaze gradually turning stern. "Seems like my words have no impact at all even though I'm the Young Madam of the Kim Family."

"Y/N, what do you mean? That woman is obviously a conman. Am I the type to mess around outside and get girls pregnant easily?"

"Are you not?" Y/N asked.

Kai felt humiliated.

The person who showed up was a tall model who was dressed sexily. As soon as she saw Kai, she immediately weeped aggrievedly. "Third Young Master, I know you rich people look down on women like me who have a lowly status, but the child is innocent! Those maids even tried to hit me!"

Not buying it at all, Kai glanced at the female model with a disgusted look and asked, "Who are you?"

The female model was stunned for a moment, after which she cried even more agitatedly. "Third Young Master, I'm Jiaojiao, Park Jiaojiao. Third Young Master, even tigers do not eat their own cubs. The baby is yours. It doesn't matter if you don't recognize me, but the baby..."

In Y/N's era, it was commonplace for women to show up at the homes of wealthy people and beg them to acknowledge their babies, for the sake of living a life of luxury.

"Is the baby really Third Young Master Kim's?"

Park Jiaojiao finally noticed Y/N's presence.

Looking at the woman who was sitting on the sofa lazily, she suddenly felt a sense of crisis.

'This woman is so pretty. Is she Third Young Master's current girlfriend?'

'However, isn't Third Young Master's current rumored girlfriend Lina?'

No matter what, she would never let anyone get in the way of her marrying into a rich family.

Park Jiaojiao choked and looked at Y/N with wary eyes, "Who are you?"

"Your Ancestor."

Y/N's tone was haughty and arrogant.

"What... What?"

"I said, I'm your Ancestor."

Kai burst into laughter without hiding it.

'This vicious woman Y/N is too talented!'

"Third Young Master, she is your new girlfriend, right? I..." Park Jiaojiao immediately looked pitiful and vulnerable as she placed one hand on her belly and one hand on her face. After crying for a long while, she sobbed and choked. "Third Young Master, I don't want to ruin the relationship between you and her but, but this baby... My mother said, if you don't acknowledge the baby, she will kick me out of the house. Third Young Master, can you bear to see your child wandering around outside?"

Kai rolled his eyes and said, "Let it be then."

Shock was written all over Park Jiaojiao's face and she thought, 'Didn't they say that the Kim Family is very concerned about having heirs?'

'Why? Why did this happen?'

She once again glanced at Y/N with viciousness in her eyes, thinking to herself that Y/N must be the reason Kai was unwilling to accept her and their baby.

After taking a deep breath, Park Jiaojiao suddenly slumped onto the ground.

"Third Young Master, the baby is kicking me. Third Young Master, hurry up and feel it. Third Young Master, it's a son! It's our son!"

Y/N couldn't help but ask, "How old is the fetus?"

Glowering at her, Park Jiaojiao answered furiously, "A little over two months."

"The fetus can kick you when you're less than three months along. Are you pregnant with a pig?"

Kai's eyelids twitched.

Feeling ashamed and infuriated, Park Jiaojiao barked in a sharp and shrilling voice, "How dare you call the Kim Family's child a pig!?!" She then turned to look at Kai. "Third Young Master, scolding the baby is akin to scolding you!"

Kai shrugged his shoulders and pointed his chin at Y/N with his chin. "She's my second sister-in-law."

'What?'

Park Jiaojiao froze for half a second before coming back to her senses. She abruptly widened her eyes and pointed at Y/N. "Third- Third Young Master, you said, said that she's your second sister-in-law?"

Raising his thick brows, Kai asked, "Do you have an opinion?"

He said so even though he did not want to admit it.

'Second Young Master Kim is married?'

'How could that be?'

She thought that a godlike figure like him would never get married.

Suddenly, Park Jiaojiao felt sourer deep down.

There were a total of three sons in the Kim Family and the eldest one had gotten married long ago, and now that the second one had also gotten married. Didn't that mean that Third Young Master Kim was the only bachelor left?

Staring at Kai's extraordinarily handsome face, she thought, 'No matter what, I must marry into the Kim Family. The position of the Third Young Master's wife belongs to me!'

Y/N noticed all of Park Jiaojiao's expressions.

"Do you want to be the Third Young Madam of the Kim family?" she suddenly asked. "You are pregnant with the eldest male heir of the Kim Family's next generation. By rights, you should be the Third Young Madam."

Park Jiaojiao's eyes lit up and she thought, 'See, I knew it.'

'Heirs are the most important to rich families. Knowing that I'm pregnant, how could they leave me and the baby out there without showing us any concern?'

Hearing those words, Kai glared at Y/N murderously and gritted his teeth before barking, "Y/N, what are you trying to do?"

'This vicious woman is not having a good time in the Kim Family, so she wants to give me a hard time too?'

When Y/N glanced at Kai, he felt a cold chill down his spine.

Damn it!

'Y/N, I must chase you out of the Kim Family!'

"Y/N, I'm telling you, you are in no place to interfere or decide who I, the Third Young Master of the Kim Family, marries. You..."

"Shut up. If you have the ability to get a girl pregnant, you must have the ability to bear the responsibility too. You're acting like a coward. Back in my era, you would have been dragged away and chopped into pieces. Get lost!"

Kai was already fierce enough, but Y/N was even more fierce and uncouth than him. Even a scoundrel like Park Jiaojiao could not help but be shocked.

Kai was once again defeated by Y/N's overbearing dominance.

'This woman is really creepy. In the blink of an eye, she's acting like she has been possessed by a ghost.'

Y/N ignored Kai and proceeded to look at Park Jiaojiao with a grin. She even kindly helped her up and let her sit beside her.

"Do you want to be the daughter-in-law of the Kim Family?"

Park Jiaojiao nodded shyly and said, "I don't want my child to be born without a decent identity and status."

Smiling insincerely, Y/N said in a gentler voice, "You probably don't know that the people of the Kim Family have a special trait."

"What? What trait?"

"Tell me about you first. Do you have a special trait?"

Park Jiaojiao thought about it and continued to nod. "Yes, even if I don't, I must make myself have that special trait."

"That's good. The people of the Kim Family have always been resistant to beatings."

'Beat...Beatings?'

Y/N's smile vanished abruptly and she grabbed a feather duster beside her. She then began hitting Kai with it.

"Ouch! Y/N, I'm going to fight with you!"

Kai stomped his feet in pain with exasperation in his eyes as he glared at Y/N.

"Shut up, I'm your Ancestor." Y/N scolded. When she looked at Park Jiaojiao, she started smiling again.

Park Jiaojiao and the butler who was standing far away were completely confused.

"You, come here." Y/N beckoned and continued, "First, let me see if you are resistant to beatings. It's not going to be much, just a few beatings with the rod."

Park Jiaojiao suddenly shuddered, feeling like her legs were turning into jelly.

She could tell how painful it was from the grimace on Third Young Master Kim's expression.

"Um, I, I..."

"Didn't you say that you are resistant to beatings?"

Park Jiaojiao cowered and shivered before answering somewhat incoherently, "No, I don't... I'm still pregnant..."

At this moment, Y/N suddenly stood up and threw the cup on the table to the ground.

"Since you're not resistant to beatings, what are you here for? Are you playing a prank on me? Do you really think it's so easy to marry into the Kim Family?"

The loud sound of the cup being smashed against the ground scared Park Jiaojiao to bits. Even her stomach began to ache vaguely.

When she met Y/N's fierce gaze, she fell to her knees. "I was wrong, I was wrong. In fact, the baby I'm carrying does not belong to Third Young Master at all. I'm just greedy and I want to cozy up to a rich man so that I can live in luxury!"

While massaging his back, Kai heard her words and paused, wishing he could take out his knife immediately. "How dare you con me, Third Young Master Kim? Do you have a death wish?"

At this moment, all Park Jiaojiao could think about was Y/N's violent behavior. With such a vicious and violent Young Madam, she dared not marry into the family at all.

She was scared that she might not live long enough to squander away the Kim Family's money.

On the other hand, Y/N was much calmer. "Since you're not carrying the Kim Family's child, what are you waiting for? Get lost."

"I..."

"What? Are you asking for a beating?"

Y/N squinted.

Park Jiaojiao scrambled out of the door.

'This shrew of the Kim Family is too terrifying!'

Dumbfounded, Kai froze and stood still on the ground.

The butler's jaw almost dropped to the ground.

'Y/N is impressive!'

'Second Young Madam is so amazing!'

"Kai, come here."

Seeing that she was curling her finger and beckoning him, Kai felt a little weak in his legs. Looking at her warily, he asked, "What...what...what are you trying to do?"

"Come here. I'm not going to repeat myself."

Her voice was extremely pleasant but to Kai, it sounded like a death knell.

After a moment of hesitation, he immediately dashed towards Y/N and stood beside her because he saw her picking up the feather duster.

"Take off your clothes."

Y/N ordered sternly.

Kai immediately raised both his hands to cover his chest. "You can't look at my body."

Raising her brows, she questioned, "Or do you want me to rip them apart for you?"

Rip, not remove.

Kai felt extremely aggrieved, a feeling he had never had before in the many years that he had lived.

'I must complain to Second Brother once he comes back!'

He took off his clothes in a wishy-washy manner, baring his toned upper body to her.

He placed a lot of emphasis on staying in shape and he was the classic example of men who looked thin in clothes and muscular when topless.

Kai was rather confident about his figure and he looked at Y/N proudly, trying to find other emotions on her face.

In the end, Y/N remained extremely calm...

She was acting as if it was not a hunk in front of her but a pig...

Y/N took a quick glimpse of Kai's back, only to see the red welts on it. She coughed and picked up an apple from the table. She then said, "There you go, it's for you."

Bewilderment was written all over Kai's face.

"You didn't embarrass the Kim Family. Not bad, keep up the good work."

She then patted Kai's shoulder, turned around and headed upstairs.

Kai stood dumbfounded with the apple in his hand, looked at Y/N, and then at the apple in his hand. An inexplicable sentiment suddenly surfaced in his heart.

'Strange, why do the apples look so beautiful today?'

'Has Y/N put some bewitching spell on me?'

Kai shivered abruptly and frantically picked up his cell phone.

*

In the large presidential suite, a man stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window with a wine glass in his hand.

The rays of the afterglow of the sunset were scattered on his body, making him look like a god who was descending.

Suddenly, the cell phone on the glass table rang with a rushed ringtone.

The man walked over and reached out his slender and bony hand.

"Second Brother, Second Brother, your wife has gone mad!"

Furrowing his thick brows into a frown, he replied indifferently, "You're mad."

Kai listened to the sound of an engaged line coming from his cell phone and stared dumbfounded at the screen.

'No, Second Brother, your wife has really gone mad!'

'She even had the guts to hit me!'

Y/N took a comfortable hot bath and started planning for her future.

It was against the law to kill and commit arson here, and her underlings were not around either. Her husband-in-name was not reliable, so she had to rely on herself to build a massive amount of wealth.

'Rumor has it that being a celebrity is a high-paying job here.'

Y/N resolutely picked up the cell phone and began using it with difficulty. When she saw the lucrative amount that a certain celebrity was paid for filming, she decisively made up her mind.

'I shall continue to harm-No, I mean, continue to shine in the entertainment industry!'

The production team that Y/N was part of now was for the drama, "Unforgettably In Love With You".

As usual, she was an extra actor and a detestable home wrecker.

Seeing that the crew was about to wrap up, Director Li stared at Lina, who was sitting on the lounge chair and throwing a tantrum, with a look of dismay.

If not for the sake of Kai, he would have long kicked Lina, a demanding, unreasonable, bratty, and useless woman who was good at nothing except drawing attention to herself, out of the film set.

Y/N was not to be trifled with too. She even had the audacity to hit Kai, how could she fear anything?

"Director Li, after what happened yesterday, how can Third Young Master Kim still let Y/N remain a part of the cast? He's kind enough not to boycott her. Should we hurry up and get her replaced?"

The assistant suggested softly.

Y/N's name was now a taboo to Lina and no one dared to mention it at all.

Director Li took a puff out of his cigarette and said, "Let's wait for some time, it's not that simple to replace an actor."

'Especially those who are as beautiful as Y/N.'

"However, you've seen Y/N hitting Third Young Master Kim yesterday, and maybe, Third Young Master Kim has already shredded her into bits. Since when has he been ill-treated in such a manner?"

'That makes sense.' Director Li thought.

Just as he was thinking about which actress might be suitable for the role, an eye-catching Pagani sped up and came to a steady halt at the side.

Not many people in the entire Seoul would dare to drive their car straight into the studio.

"It's Third Young Master's car!"

Lina, who was still scolding her assistant, stood up abruptly and scurried over with glistening eyes.

'I wonder what Third Young Master has done to that b*tch Y/N.'

'Hmph, that woman had the audacity to bully me and hit Third Young Master. She must have been dealt with harshly.'

After the door of the car was pushed open, Kai took the lead and alighted.

Dressed in stylish black streetwear and a pair of sunglasses, he leaned against the front of the car bonnet slovenly.

Lina walked over and hugged Kai's arm affectionately, causing the women around her to be green with envy and jealousy.

"Third Young Master, when I got home last night, I discovered that my stomach was bruised. It must have been because I got kicked by Y/N! Third Young Master, you said that you liked my delicate skin the most and that you want me to take good care of it but now..."

'How dare you mention Y/N!?!'

'If it wasn't for you, would I have been beaten by Y/N?'

With a straight face, Kai retracted his arm from Lina's hand.

At this moment, the car door was suddenly pushed open and Y/N got out of it slowly.

Lina and the rest of the production crew were dumbfounded.

'Why is Y/N still alive?'

'She even came out of Third Young Master Kim's car!'

Lina's expression changed a little and she asked, "Third Young Master, what's the matter with her? Why did Y/N come out of your car?"

"None of your business."

Hearing his words, Lina gritted her teeth and asked pitifully, "Third Young Master, did I do something wrong? I'll change, okay? Don't be so fierce to me, I'm scared!"

Damn it!

Y/N opened her eyes and rubbed her ears in annoyance. "I didn't want to touch you at first because you're a pretty lady. However, you just had to kick up a fuss here. Don't blame me for being unkind to you!"

She strode forward to pull Lina away from Kai. "I'm scared that I'll lose a significant amount of my lifespan if I continue being in the same cast as you."

'Y/N keeps talking in such an uncouth manner. Does she have no regards for her image anymore because she thinks that she's not famous enough?'

Lina turned pale and she wondered if Y/N had become Kai's new girlfriend.

'No, this can't do. I had a hard time enduring the Moon Curse for a month and everyone thinks that I might be Third Young Master's true love, and the one who will become the Third Young Madam of the Kim Family.'

'I can't let my plans be foiled like this!'

"Third Young Master, did this woman drug you to bewitch you? Y/N, this woman is very promiscuous and she has a bad reputation in the industry. She'll get close to any man who might be beneficial to her..."

Kai remained silent and subconsciously looked at Y/N. He initially thought that Y/N would fly into a rage and pin Lina down against the ground to beat her into a pulp, but in the end...

"Director Li, this is my last scene, right? We can start filming now."

'Start filming?'

'You beat Third Young Master Kim and you still...'

Director Li glanced at Kai inquisitively.

"Ahem, she's helped me before and I'm not an ingrate. Hurry, get the cameras rolling."

'So that's why Y/N insisted on making me send her to the studio personally.'

"Third Young Master, this woman had the audacity to hit you yesterday. Why are you still letting her remain as a part of the cast?" Lina asked, filled with jealousy. "This woman has gone overboard, Third Young Master, you..."

"It's none of your business. I'm happy and willing to do so," Kai rebuked, glaring at her.

'Would I bear with this mistreatment if I could beat her?'

Lina bit her lip and detested Y/N even more when she sensed the gloating gaze that was cast at her.

'How did this b*tch bewitch him? She just has a pretty face, that's all.'

'She graduated from a lousy school, and after being in this industry for three years, she's still given unimportant roles. Does she really think she can marry into a wealthy family?'

Y/N could not even manage to clinch the role of the third lead in this drama.

However, her role in the drama this time was crucial because she would make the audience feel extremely resentful towards her.

It was the last scene of the drama and she was playing the character, Lee Yuya, who finally took advantage of the fact that the female lead, Choi Weiran, was injured and kidnapped her to commit acts of violence on her. In the end, she was shot to death by the male lead.

Y/N didn't have to read the script at all.

She was just as malicious, brutal, and ruthless as the character she had to play.

After getting her makeup done, Y/N sat on the leather sofa like a big boss.

They were in an abandoned warehouse, which was extremely dim and she was shrouded in darkness.

Suddenly, the closed door was pushed open, and the warehouse gradually brightened up.

Two tall men were walking in while holding down a disheveled-looking woman.

"I've brought the person you asked for. Where's the money I deserve?"

Lee Yuya hummed lightly and looked at the person in front of her with disdain in her eyes. "What's the hurry?"

She suddenly got up, her flaming red lips now curved upwards bizarrely. She strutted towards Choi Weiran in her high heels and bent her back a little.

Kai, who was initially seated at the side and playing with his cell phone, immediately put it away and sat up straight.

'Yes, that's the gaze!'

'Y/N always gazes at me like this when she's about to hit me!'

He somehow felt that Lina was about to suffer.

At this moment, Y/N suddenly turned around to look at the director. "Director Li, as a vicious woman, I should make both the audience and my co-actors resent me, right?"

Although Director Li was clueless as to why she suddenly asked that question, she nodded and said, "Of course, that would prove that you have good acting skills."

Y/N turned around and gave Lina a slap without saying a word.

Covering her face, Lina looked at her in disbelief and muttered, "You..."

"Do you think I'll let you off now that you're in my hands?"

She stepped forward and slowly squatted down, with a bloodthirsty smile on her pretty face.

"Take a look at yourself. You actually want to go against me with what you've got?"

As she spoke, she slapped Lina again, causing one side of the latter's face to become extremely swollen.

At this moment, Y/N was like a demoness who would kill without batting an eyelid and would dismember her body in the next second.

Lina shuddered, her eyes full of resentment.

'Y/N must be doing this on purpose!'

Despite knowing that they were just filming, the crew somehow felt that Y/N was actually taking revenge.

The two slaps that she had given Lina were extremely hard, such that they caused her face to become as swollen as a pig's head!

Immediately afterwards, they heard an applause. "Well done!"

Kai suddenly discovered that it was really thrilling to watch Y/N hitting others!

Everyone else present was speechless.

'Third Young Master Kim, she's your girlfriend.'

Lina was both ashamed and enraged. 'I must rip Y/N's face apart and show Third Young Master who's more suitable for him!'

Thinking about this, Lina immediately put on an aggrieved look as she covered her face and sobbed. "Third..."

"Yell again and see if I'll tear your mouth up."

"Choi Weiran, don't overestimate yourself. Before seducing him, did you take a look at yourself?"

Y/N was saying the lines from the script.

However, Lina felt that Y/N was directing it at her.

'This b*tch Y/N!'

'Doesn't she go around seducing men with her pretty face too?'

When Y/N saw the resentment in Lina's eyes, she smiled derisively.

She thought, 'Her acting skills are so lousy that she can't even compare to me, an outsider of the showbiz industry. No wonder she has to rely on men to get the resources she has.'

"Do you hate me? Do you hate me so much that you want to cut me into a thousand pieces?"

Laughing hysterically, she continued, "Unfortunately, you won't have the chance to do so."

Director Li and the rest of the crew exclaimed in amazement.

Previously, Y/N would seem particularly cowardly whenever she acted in the same scenes with Lina, but today, her acting skills were superb!

Everyone enjoyed the show.

Kai suddenly discovered that his second sister-in-law was not useless after all.

Rubbing his chin with one hand, Kai thought, 'It seems... this vicious woman is an artiste under my company.'

Y/N's closing scene was almost a one-sided torment for Lina.

When Y/N slapped her for the last time, Lina finally lost control of her emotions and covered her face as she burst into tears. Looking at Kai, she said, "Third Young Master, Y/N did it on purpose. She must have done it on purpose. Third Young Master, this woman has violent tendencies. Look at my face, I..."

Kai would show sympathy to beautiful girls. At this moment, Lina did look rather hideous.

Just as he was about to put in a good word for her, he suddenly sensed Y/N's murderous gaze.

'Damn it, it's starting to hurt in the spot that I got hit.'

"Isn't it according to the script?"

Slightly stunned, Lina asked, "Third... Third Young Master, what do you mean?"

Kai frowned and pointed at the script. "Aren't you guys acting out the scene according to the script?"

In other words, he meant that Lina ought to be slapped since that's what was written in the script.

'Has Third Young Master been bewitched? Why is he defending such an unreasonable and wicked woman?'

Lina secretly clenched her fists. She would not let the matter go just like that.

'Y/N, I must make you pay the price!'

*

Perhaps because they had witnessed Y/N's violent behavior yesterday, the servants of the Kim Family manor were all terrified and daunted when they saw her.

Watching Y/N alight from Kai's car, they felt like they had been forced into Hell.

"Third Young Master, Second Young Madam."

Y/N was wearing a black dress today, and she looked rather elegant, with her long hair draped down her back.

In comparison, Kai, who was usually demanding, unreasonable, sharp-tongued and tyrannical, seemed to have become Y/N's submissive follower at this moment.

Carrying the large suitcase, his handsome face was flushed but he dared not voice his displeasure to Y/N at all.

'Once Second Brother is home, I must make him chase this vicious woman out of the Kim Family!'

"Third Young Master, Second Young Madam, Miss Kim came home this afternoon."

"Where is she now?"

Kai's eyes lit up. Ever since she was a child, Jennie had had explosive combat power. He thought that maybe he could get her to deal with Y/N!

The butler sighed and said, "She left after taking some clothes with her. She said that she's going on an overseas trip that's organized by the school."

Y/N folded one arm and rubbed her chin with the other as she walked towards the house alone.

Rumor had it that this Kim Jennie was extremely difficult to deal with as she was capricious and bratty. She often got into fights in school and her grades were poor too. If she was not a member of the Kim Family, she would have probably been expelled a long time ago.

'Not bad, she has the demeanor that I had when I was a bandit.'

'Unfortunately, I can't get to see her for now.'

Y/N was extremely picky with her meals, insisting that she had to have lean meat for every meal. She was almost as picky as his second brother!

At this moment, Kai's stomach was already rumbling because he was famished. However, Y/N was seated right opposite him and the only thing he could do was to bear with it.

He unlocked his cell phone and got ready to post something on Instagram when he suddenly discovered that Y/N's name was on the hot search list.

The title 'Background actress Y/N assaults Lina' was followed by eye-catching and flabbergasting words.

The root cause of the hot search was a Instagram post by Lina's manager.

The manager wrote: "This is the first time I've seen such a domineering actress. More importantly, she's just an actress who plays minor roles. Lina has put up with her countless times, but she's going more and more overboard. She even used filming as an excuse to beat up Lina."

There were a few photos of Lina laying weakly on the bed, attached below the post. There was a bandage wrapped around her forehead, and the corners of her mouth were obviously bruised.

As one of the most popular stars at present, Lina had countless die-hard fans who would definitely fly into a rage when they saw the post.

They were all posting hateful and angry comments in the comments section.

Kai read through all the comments and sprung up from the sofa. "Outrageous, how can these bastards scold the people of the Kim Family?"

Although Y/N was indeed very cruel and brutal today, she was still the daughter-in-law of the Kim Family after all.

Y/N was engrossed with playing a mobile game that was meant for toddlers. Seeing this, her eyes turned dim and she asked coldly, "Are they asking for a beating?"

Kai rolled his eyes and tossed his cell phone at her. "Look at it yourself."

Y/N caught his phone effortlessly and stared at the screen for a long time to scrutinize the messages. "What is this thingy?"

'Thing... Thingy?'

"This is Instagram. Don't tell me you don't even know what Instagram is."

Y/N tried to recall it carefully and came to a sudden realization. "Oh, you mean the social media platform where a lot of brainless die-hard fans gather?"

Kai vaguely felt attacked.

'What does she mean the platform where a lot of brainless die-hard fans gather?'

'Don't all young people use Instagram nowadays?'

All of a sudden, Kai looked at Y/N peculiarly. "Don't tell me you don't have a Instagram account."

Raising her brow, Y/N asked, "Is there a rule where I must have one?"

The original owner really did not have a Instagram account.

Kai thought, 'Seems like she really doesn't.'

'That explains why she can remain so composed even though she has been criticized harshly.'

Kai started teaching Y/N how to use Instagram with great patience, which was rare of him. At the same time, he showed her the malicious comments.

"Where did this hideous woman come from? How dare she beat my Lina. Does she have a death wish?"

"The ugly ones are always causing trouble. Her face is full of plastic. Sisters, let's dox her!"

("dox" is a slang term for publishing someone's personal information online, such as their name, address, phone number, or social media profiles.)

"Are D-list actresses all so arrogant nowadays? Call the police. Garbage."

"Oh my God! Lina seems to have been beaten badly. That woman should die!"

...

Pointing at the screen, Y/N looked up at Kai and asked, "Are they scolding me?"

"Duh, who else had hit Lina openly in front of the crew?"

She even hit him too.

At the thought of this, Kai felt pain radiating throughout his entire body.

Y/N cursed softly, "She deserves it. Why? Is she trying to blame me for her head injury too?"

"Didn't she suffer that injury because you hit her?"

Y/N smacked her hand against the table, causing Kai to be so frightened that he shivered and quickly retreated.

"Let me dig your faulty eyeballs out. I've only ever slapped women on their faces. Why would I hit her forehead?"

"..."

He had never seen anyone who'd sound as righteous as Y/N after hitting someone.

He felt that she was a female gangster.

At this moment, Lina's fans were doxing Y/N. When they discovered that she would be attending a press conference in a few days time, they began to get ready to fight for their idol.

Faced with the brazen taunting by Lina's fans, Y/N was rather composed.

Kai secretly decided that if things were to get out of hand, he would step in to suppress it. Apart from the fact that Y/N was an artiste of his agency, she was also the 'Second Young Madam of the Kim Family', although no one knew about it.

"I've hit someone, can the Kim Family deal with it?"

Y/N suddenly asked.

After being stunned for a while, Kai asked in confusion, "What?"

"Will I go to jail if I beat them up and cause them to be crippled?"

'You're scared of going to jail too, huh?'

'What were you doing just now?'

Despising her in his heart, Kai said in an arrogant manner, "With the Kim Family around, everything can be settled as long as you don't kill them."

Hearing his words, Y/N nodded and said, "In this case, I'll beat them up in your name."

???

Kai gritted his teeth and his face turned pale immediately. "How dare you!"

She knocked her slender fingers against the table, completely ignoring the furious Kai.

'Seems like there are benefits to being the daughter-in-law of the Kim Family.'

The drama "Unforgettably In Love With You" was adapted from an extremely popular online novel which revolved around the classic storyline of a domineering CEO falling in love with the female lead.

The character whom Y/N was playing was one of the female supporting characters and also the most detestable one.

The venue of the post-production press conference was completely crowded with people, most of whom were fans of the male and female leads.

One of the groups looked particularly eye-catching.

That group consisted mostly of college students who were all dressed in white T-shirts and holding banners that read "Y/N, apologize to Lina."

When the creators saw that, they felt worried for Y/N.

Strictly speaking, actors who played minor roles, like Y/N, were not qualified to attend the press conference. However, it couldn't be helped since she was related to Kai.

Is Kai a masochist?

Why did he get hit by the rod and...

Y/N was dressed in a particularly eye-catching outfit today.

She was wearing a long, black retro skirt, a small black hat, and holding a silver spherical bag in her hand. As soon as she appeared, everyone cheered in joy.

"Who's that lady? Why haven't I seen her before? She's so pretty!"

"She looks so sophisticated and her outfit is beautiful. Is she the female lead of the drama?"

"Why do I find her so familiar-looking?"

"She's Y/N, the vicious woman who hit our Lina at the set!"

Suddenly, someone yelled and Lina's fans swarmed forwards immediately like lunatics.

The security officers at the scene frantically stopped them while Y/N remained exceptionally calm when facing the fans who wished they could skin her alive.

"Director Li, where do I sit?"

Director Li coughed and pointed at the seat that was all the way behind. "There."

'They allocated a seat all the way at the back to me?'

Y/N raised her eyebrow lightly. 'I may no longer be a gangster but I still...'

'Forget it, I'll make this place my turf sooner or later.'

Lina arrived slowly, more than ten minutes after the press conference had begun.

At this moment, her head was still wrapped in thick bandage and the assistant was helping her to her seat. Her feeble appearance made her fans feel heartache.

"Oh my god, Lina's face is so pale."

"Trust that background actress to have the cheek to sit there. Lina has such a good temper. She got beaten up so badly but she doesn't even blame her."

"Yeah, her injuries are so severe. As long as Lina insists on reporting it to the police, that background actress will have to be jailed for at least two weeks, right?"

Lina first greeted the director and the rest before looking at the people below the stage. She smiled feebly and said, "Sorry to have made everyone worried, I'm alright."

At this moment, a discussion had already started on Instagram.

"That background actress is actually sitting there like nothing had happened. My poor baby Lina, look at her complexion..."

"She probably had plastic surgery! Why doesn't this woman go and die? Oh my god, I initially didn't have much of an opinion about Lina but now I've fallen deeply in love with her. She's too kind!"

"I hold a black belt in Taekwondo. Please let me join the team to beat up the background actress."

Lina's manager whispered something into her ears before leaving quickly to go backstage.
