As soon as Y/N reached Lee Dong-wook's studio, he walked towards her with a grave and sorrowful expression. "Y/N, you're finally here. Did we offend the Min family? They've snatched away all the actors and actresses that we want to invite."

'Uh...'

Seeing how anxious Lee Dong-wook was, Y/N somehow felt a little guilty.

She raised her hand and touched the tip of her nose. "Maybe it was Ke Ying."

"Ke Ying? Ke Ying has already broken through to the international entertainment industry, she can't be bothered with us, and..." Lee Dong-wook suddenly thought of something and looked at Y/N. "It's probably the case."

'Y/N is quite fierce and aggressive, she's probably offended Ke Ying.'

Everyone knew that Ke Ying were friends with the heiress of the Min Corporation and it would seem reasonable for her to incite the Min Corporation to vie with them for resources.

"Y/N, why don't you ask Second Young Madam Kim for help since you're so close to her? The Min Corporation will definitely compromise on her account."

'Psht!'

"Director Lee," Y/N said as she patted Lee Dong-wook on the shoulder. "We're now filming a movie that revolves around a realistic theme. The first half of the movie is going to be filmed in the country side. You want something raw and realistic? Look for the real farmers there and film them."

Although it sounded a little far-fetched, it seemed correct too.

"Those farmers won't know how to act. They can be extras, though."

Y/N retorted, "Everyone has potential."

'One of the famous actors of the nation is born to a family of farmers but he still has excellent acting skills! He trumps so many people!'

Lee Dong-wook decided to trust her once.

'However, the internationally acclaimed post-production team hired by Second Young Madam Kim will have to suffer a bit. Will they get fed up and decide to quit all of a sudden?'

Lee Dong-wook felt a little scared but Y/N had already happily gone to get ready.

She suddenly had a great idea in mind.

The storyline for the film this time was set to be emotional.

The female lead, Moon, was abducted by a child trafficker at a tender age and sold to an infertile married couple in a faraway village.

The couple was past their child-bearing years and were quite nice to Moon. On the day that Moon reached adulthood, her adoptive father fell to his death when going up the mountain to pick some wild fruit for her while her mother became paralyzed because of a severe illness.

Moon was slightly autistic, timid and extremely introverted. Later on, her biological parents finally found her and sent her back to the city to study at a third-rate university through their connections.

Her biological parents ran a business and were rather well-to-do. Their relatives lived near them and they were in disdain of Moon because she grew up in the countryside and had an eccentric character.

Once, Moon was almost molested by a male classmate who came from a wealthy family that had plenty of connections. Moon's biological mother put in a good word for the boy and convinced Moon to let the matter go. At the same time, she happened to receive the news of the death of her adoptive mother in the countryside, and thus chose to take her own life by jumping into the river.

The entire storyline was very depressing and Y/N would have to be bare-faced throughout the entire process of the filming.

The first half of the film was shot in the slums of a mountainous area, according to Y/N's wishes. The scenery there was beautiful and perhaps when the film is released, it would gain some fame and be developed into a tourist spot.

Thus, the people in the mountain would be able to earn some money too.

"Second Sister-in-law, can you take me with you this time?" Jennie asked, tugging Y/N's sleeve reluctantly.

Y/N smacked her hand away with disdain and said, "Study harder."

'I'm already in the third year of college!' Jennie was furious.

"Second sister-in-law..."

Y/N was getting impatient. "Kai, take your sister away."

Kai felt that Jennie was overreacting as well. It wasn't like they were going to part ways forever. Y/N was just going to leave for filming.

"Jennie, why are you so clingy when you're already so old?" Kai said with disdain.

Jennie glared at him. "It's none of your business."

Y/N wished Jisso a happy birthday in advance.

"It's just a birthday. We can spend it together next year. I happen to be making a trip to the US in the afternoon."

Jisso smiled. 'I'm going to stay as far away from him as possible.'

"Jisso, why don't you come with me and take a look?"

Jennie had a sharp sense of hearing so when she heard those words, she puffed her cheeks up and humphed coldly. 'Second Sister-in-law is being biased to me again.'

"Focus on filming. I have a few haute couture orders to fulfill. I'm going to go meet a client this time."

Y/N nodded and bade goodbye to Jisso reluctantly.

Taehyung was in the office while Seokjin was in his laboratory. Hence, Y/N simply bade goodbye to them.

Before leaving, she couldn't help but look at Kai with an ambiguous gaze.

Kai felt a sudden tingling and numbness in his scalp.

"Second... Second Sister-in-law, why are you staring at me?"

"I think you look pretty funny."

"..."

As soon as they reached the airport, Tzuyu sprinted over together with Mu Mu, lugging a large suitcase in hand.

Mu Mu was particularly excited to see Y/N and he quickly hugged her thigh. "Aunt Y/N, we meet again. You're getting prettier and prettier."

Y/N grinned and pinched Mu Mu's face, finding him really adorable.

'Children are quite cute after all, especially the ones with a glib tongue like Mu Mu.'

When Lee Dong-wook saw Mu Mu, his first reaction was that he found Mu Mu to be really adorable.

His second reaction...

"Y/N, this is a little boy, we need a girl!"

Y/N nodded particularly seriously and said, "Yes, we need a girl."

"You...

"Can't you just dress him up like a girl?" After saying that, Y/N glanced at Lee Dong-wook in disdain.

Lee Dong-wook choked. Surprisingly, he was at a loss for words to retaliate.

Mu Mu had exquisite and delicate features. He was very good-looking and his mouth and eyes resembled that of Kai's greatly.

"Y/N, thanks to you, I got to take a few days off from work. That man I went on a blind date with has been harassing me lately. I think it's because he knows that things are not going to work out between you and him. He even showed up at my home. It was really scary."

Y/N comforted, "I'll help you beat him up when you get back, I'm sure he'll behave himself after that."

The village they were going to was very far away. After getting off the plane, they would have to take a train ride and travel for more than four hours by car to reach their destination.

It was extremely far away from the city.

Hearing that a film crew would be arriving to shoot for a movie, the villagers started cleaning up a long time ago and vacated several empty rooms to provide accommodation for the crew.

The place was beautiful and Y/N thought that it would make for a good retirement place.

Walking behind Y/N, Tzuyu kept sighing incessantly.

Y/N had seen plenty of such places before and she had lived for countless years in an era without electricity and the internet. However, she now preferred living in a bustling city.

"Director Lee, this is my grandson. He goes to a high school in the county, is he a suitable candidate for the leading role?"

"This is my son, he looks really handsome after dressing up and he's definitely a better candidate for playing the male lead."

"I don't need to play the lead role, just let me have a chance to show up on TV."

Almost as soon as the crew settled down, the villagers started running over to recommend their children for a role in the movie.

Feeling put in a spot, Lee Dong-wook said, "Everyone, don't panic, we'll have a professional acting coach to teach you some basic acting skills. We don't have specific roles for you guys yet!"

The cost of hiring the entire village would be lesser than that of hiring a C-lister.

Y/N's solution may be quite cost-effective but...

Lee Dong-wook looked at the people dressed in simple clothing in front of him...

'Forget it, they're not too bad either.'

This time, Mu Mu came to film the scenes that took place during Moon's childhood and he would be playing Moon as a child.

When Lee Dong-wook asked Y/N if she knew of a child who would fit the role, Mu Mu was the first person to come to his mind.

Tzuyu used to hope that she would give birth to a daughter so she would dress Mu Mu in feminine clothes.

However, Mu Mu's grandmother insisted that she let Mu Mu dress the way he wanted to.

What surprised Y/N the most was that when she asked Mu Mu to play her character as a child, he agreed without hesitating.

Y/N was more and more certain that Mu Mu was Kai's son.

Jennie told her that Kai had an embarrassing affair.

When he was younger, he tore Jennie's dress when trying to put it on...

Finally, the crew chose the most handsome one of all the young men present.

Y/N had high aesthetic standards for men and had chosen an acceptable-looking one.

The filming of the movie began.

The first scene was that of Mu Mu.

He was wearing a wig and a pretty princess-style dress with a cartoon backpack.

In this scene, Moon was abducted and brought to the village when she was a child. Owing to her adorable appearance and fancy clothes, the villagers all ran over to join the fun.

Lee Dong-wook was rather stern and strict towards the rest of the cast but he was extremely patient with Mu Mu and would explain the instructions to him while filming.

Wrapped in a long down jacket and holding a thermos flask in her hand, Y/N took a seat on a short stool at the side while Tzuyu stood beside her and kept snapping photos with her cell phone.

"He's just a little too young. Otherwise, he'd make a good candidate for the male lead."

Y/N remarked while drinking some water.

Feeling rather proud, Tzuyu said, "Mu Mu will be the center of attention everywhere he goes. Many of his classmates' parents want him to marry their children when they grow up."

'Marry when they grow up?'

Y/N suddenly winked at Tzuyu and said, "Actually, I can wait for your son to grow up."

'That's not necessary.'

Tzuyu refuted, "Y/N, you're already married to Mr. Kim, who is much better than Mu Mu."

"It's alright, if you're worried about my relationship with Taehyung, I can divorce him."

Tzuyu suddenly felt that the person she should worry about is Taehyung and not Y/N.

Previously, when she heard that Y/N had gotten married into the Kim Family, she was still worried that Y/N would get bullied.

Now, it seems...

Mu Mu was still a child after all. Although he didn't have much screen time in the film, the shoot for his scenes, which would make up only five or six minutes of the total running time for the film, took several days to be completed.

Tzuyu had only applied for a week-long leave of absence for Mu Mu so she was in a hurry to rush back to the city with him.

Standing at the entrance of the village, Y/N waved goodbye to the both of them reluctantly.

'The reception here in the mountainous forest is so bad. I can't connect to a Wi-fi network and there's no one to talk to either. I'm going to be really bored.'

"Aunt Y/N, don't worry, I will miss you when I'm home."

'Children like Mu Mu are really cute, actually.'

Once Tzuyu and Mu Mu got inside the car, Y/N climbed onto the rocks at the entrance of the village and gazed at them longingly.

"Y/N, let's start getting your makeup done. The earlier we finish, the sooner we can head back to the city," Lee Dong-wook urged.

When filming in the village, Y/N was completely living in a state of primitive life where the signal was weak and a Wi-fi network was scarce.

At this juncture, there was yet another huge uproar on the internet.

Someone posted a video about the news of a certain popular celebrity's romantic relationship being exposed. The celebrity's rumored girlfriend was suspected to be Y/N.

The photo was taken at night and the woman was wearing the same clothes that Y/N happened to have.

The male celebrity's fans were incredibly toxic as they felt that no woman in this world was worthy of their idol.

[Everyone, please stop hating on Sister Y/N. She's now filming in the nooks and crannies in some random forest. She doesn't have time for a relationship at all.]

[Sister Y/N is innocent and upright. She's not "worthy" of that huge star. She's just a poor little actress with nearly 10 million followers.]

[This is really strange. Why do these random crooks like to falsely accuse Sister Y/N? Does maligning her make your life better? Sister Y/N is now experiencing life in the mountains, stop getting her involved.]

Y/N, who was still "experiencing life" in the nooks and crannies, was completely dressed like a village girl at the moment.

She was dressed in shabby clothes and her hair was in braids.

The weather was very chilly and it wasn't too humid in the village so Y/N gave up on skincare the first day she entered the village.

She didn't have any makeup on and her pale face was a little flushed.

"Y/N, it'll be hard on you."

Y/N gave Lee Dong-wook the impression that she was arrogant but was a competent and fast learner. Unfortunately, she was angst all the time and couldn't take hardship.

This time, he once again changed his mind about Y/N.

Actresses pay the most attention to their appearance, and many would even bring a professional beautician with them to set so that they could take care of their skin.

Y/N didn't have a manager nor an assistant. Now, she didn't even bother about skincare.

Her features were still pretty now but her lips were cracked and her skin was a little dull. She looked just like a hillbilly.

"It rained last night and the roads on the mountain are quite uneven. Why don't you wait until the weather clears up tomorrow to film the scenes?"

When the village chief saw Y/N's appearance at this time, he couldn't help but recall her appearance when she first entered the village. It was simply a world of difference.

"That's exactly the effect that I want. Enjoyment does not exist in Moon's life."

She took the lead and walked towards the mountain. The terrain was considered acceptable to her, for she had walked on worse and muddier roads when she took her underlings trekking through the mountains in the past.

"We can start filming," Lee Dong-wook said with a hand gesture.

Today, they would be filming the scene of the male and female lead meeting each other.

Moon went up the mountain to scour for some vegetables but accidentally fell. Zhang Mingtian happened to see Moon and carried her down.

The person playing the character 'Zhang Mingtian' was the nephew of the villager, who was also named Zhang Mingtian.

Except for the female lead, almost all the characters who appeared in the village in the film had the same name as the villagers who played them.

Lee Dong-wook was the one who requested it. Since he just needed the villagers to act as themselves, giving them fake names would be restrictive.

Y/N soon got into the mood.

Carrying a backpack, she slowly made her way up the mountain. Even though she was wearing a cotton shirt, her back still seemed extremely gaunt and weak.

She was very strict with her weight loss regime and had especially tried to lose even more weight for the sake of this film. Hence, she was really only skin and bones left.

She no longer looked as pretty and fresh as she used to. At this point, Y/N was the poor Moon who had been through plenty of hardship in life.

All of a sudden, her body swayed a little and she rolled downwards, causing the mud to splash all over her body.

Lee Dong-wook got a great shock too because he didn't expect Y/N to really do it.

"Remember to capture her facial expressions. They are fewer and fewer actresses like Y/N who are bold enough to make sacrifices for her career these days."

There was mud in Y/N's mouth and she couldn't help but mutter, "I'm getting so much hate even though I'm so dedicated to my work. This doesn't make sense at all."

"Moon?" Zhang Mingtian came down slowly from the mountain with a pile of firewood in his arms. When he saw her lying on the ground, he scurried over and asked, "Are you alright?"

She slowly raised her head. Although her face was covered in dirt, her eyes were exceptionally bright. "It's alright, I just slipped."

Zhang Mingtian tossed the firewood on his back towards the side and squatted in front of her. "Come on, I'll carry you home!"

"That doesn't seem to be appropriate, I..."

Y/N was entirely emulating a submissive, shy, and meek girl.

The scene was a perfect take. Afterward, the crew quickly came forward to wipe the mud off of Y/N's body.

"Y/N, why are you injured?"

The stylist exclaimed in shock and everyone's attention was drawn to him.

Y/N's sleeves were rolled up, her fair arm was exposed, revealing an obvious wound on it.

She should have scratched it when she rolled down the mountain just now.

"It's just a small injury, nothing to make a fuss about." Y/N said nonchalantly, grabbed a piece of tissue and wiped her wound before unrolling her sleeves again.

After wrapping up, Lee Dong-wook quickly uploaded a post on Weibo to praise Y/N for being dedicate to her work and said that the result of the film would stun everyone.

Taehyung had gone overseas for a business trip lately and had only returned two days ago.

The maids in the manor couldn't help but be emotional because they would seldom see Taehyung in the past but now, they would see him almost every week.

Jennie was playing with her cell phone. As soon as she saw Taehyung, she stood up immediately and rushed out. "Second Brother, Second Sister-in-law got injured while filming."

'Injured?'

Taehyung raised his brows and grabbed Jennie's phone as she handed it to him.

After seeing the post that Lee Dong-wook uploaded onto Weibo, he pursed his lips and handed the cell phone back to Jennie.

"Second Brother, don't worry, Third Brother has already contacted the crew. It's just a minor wound, it won't even leave a scar after it heals."

After Jennie finished speaking, Taehyung had already called Assistant Wen. He instructed, "Book the next flight tickets to New City."

Taehyung then hung up.

Jennie followed behind him and deliberately tried to act cute. "Second Brother, are you going to go see Second Sister-in-law? Take me with you, I don't have many lessons recently."

Taehyung ignored her and headed upstairs to pack his luggage.

'Second Brother is being too much, seeing Second Sister-in-law is such an important thing but he won't take me along!'

Since ancient times, Y/N had never been injured before. The abrasions that she had sustained now were rather painful.

After dressing her wound simply, there was a sudden commotion outside the village.

She had grown up in a village where the village chief was one of the very few people in the village who could own a two-storey house.

At this moment, there was a black saloon car parked at the entrance. While putting on his jacket, he frantically ran towards the car.

'Is the boss coming here for a spot check?'

Y/N was bewildered and after thinking about it, she decided to freshen up and go over with the crowd.

As soon as she reached the village entrance, the door of the car opened at the same time and she was greeted with a pair of long legs.

As soon as Taehyung got out of his car, everyone fell silent. There were many female staff members in the crew and the first thought they had when they saw Taehyung was— 'Damn it this man is so dashing.'

When Lee Dong-wook saw Taehyung, he thought that Taehyung must be rich and powerful. He even found him to be a little familiar-looking.

Taehyung rarely appeared in public and the photos of him that could be found on the Internet were of his side profile or back.

There were actually very few people who had seen him in person.

Lee Dong-wook rubbed his hands together. He had heard the village chief saying that Taehyung was there to see the film crew.

'This man has such a domineering and overbearing aura, he must be a boss or a senior executive.'

'Has he already realized the potential of this film and decided to invest in us?'

"Hello, Sir, may I ask if you are..."

Taehyung merely glanced at Lee Dong-wook indifferently and ansered, "Kim Taehyung."

'Oh, his name is Kim Taehyung.'

Lee Dong-wook first nodded and immediately reacted before widening his eyes and asking in shock, "Kim... Taehyung?"

'So that's why he look so familiar. I've seen him from afar before.'

'Right, the investor of our film is Second Young Madam Kim!'

'Is Mr. Kim here to inspect on behalf of Second Young Madam Kim?'

Lee Dong-wook thought of countless possible reasons for Taehyung's visit.

The crew were astonished.

'Wow, we actually got to see the famous and mighty Mr. Taehyung in person!'

Y/N was just as surprised to see Taehyung.

She wasn't exaggerating but she felt that Taehyung seemed really out of place in the rural village.

Taehyung had already seen Y/N and he slowly started smiling faintly, though it seemed warm in the chilly weather.

Everyone watched as Taehyung strode towards Y/N and draped his black jacket over her without hesitation. He frowned and asked, "Why are you wearing so little clothing?"

Y/N sniffled her cold and stiff nose. "Why are you here?"

"I'm here to take a look."

He held her hand and gently lifted her sleeve to see the obvious wound on her slender arm.

"You even got hurt from filming a scene. My dear wife, maybe you're only suitable for staying at home."

'Wife?'

Only now did Lee Dong-wook and the others come back to their senses. They stared at the couple, dumbfounded.

In particular, they were staring at Taehyung's hand, which was wrapped around Y/N's wrist.

'Damn!'

'Did Mr. Kim just call Y/N his wife?'

Lee Dong-wook couldn't help but shudder. He looked at Taehyung before turning to look at Y/N again. The shock within him was simply indescribable.

'No wonder Y/N managed to settle such a tricky matter and even dared to openly provoke the pretentious actresses of the entertainment. No wonder both Jungkook and Jimin are so smitten with her. At the end of the day, it's all because she's actually Second Young Madam Kim!'

Taehyung glanced at Lee Dong-wook indifferently before looking at Y/N's arm again. It was obvious what he meant.

Lee Dong-wook felt a little awkward because he still hadn't come to terms with the fact that Y/N was Second Young Madam Kim, Taehyung's wife. He swallowed his saliva and said, "Hehe, Second Young Madam Kim is an excellent actress who is very dedicated to her work. I'm sure she'll continue to thrive in the entertainment industry and reach the pinnacle one day."

Y/N looked at Lee Dong-wook coldly, completely in disdain of how he was trying to suck up to Taehyung. "Speak like a human."

Lee Dong-wook looked at her innocently and said, "Second Young Madam Kim, I..."

"Speak properly," Y/N said fiercely.

Lee Dong-wook immediately changed the way he addressed her. "Haha, Y/N, I really didn't expect you to be Second Young Madam Kim. Why didn't you tell me sooner? I just liked a news report about a rumored romance between you and Jimin."

As soon as he finished speaking, he stared at Taehyung's cold and handsome face fawningly. "Mr. Kim, its cold here, please come inside. This is the chief of this village who has been taking great care of us. Second Young Madam Kim is staying in the village chief's house, which is the best house in this village."

Taehyung still didn't answer and instead, pulled Y/N into the village.

Looking at their backs, Lee Dong-wook breathed a sigh of relief and winked at the crew.

The crew who was still petrified, finally snapped back to their senses and began to recall whether they had ever done anything to offend Y/N.

"Director Lee, who is that man? He's so handsome!" An old lady came over and asked curiously.

After giving it some thought, Lee Dong-wook answered, "A very rich man."

"How rich is that? Is he rich enough to plant crops on every inch of land of our village?"

'Uh...'

"He can probably afford hundreds or thousands of your village," Lee Dong-wook said with uncertainty.

He had never bought a village before so he did not know how much a village was worth.

All of a sudden, the villagers who were standing around and watching, had shock written all over their faces.

"That's really rich!"

"Oh my gosh, Lee Dong-wook, did that kid commit a crime? We don't advocate these practices to make money." Another old lady looked nervous.

"Yes, how can ordinary people earn so much money? It costs a bomb to buy our village. Besides, there are so many, are you lying to us?"

"Old Zhang's son is said to be running a small business in the city, but I don't see him earning that much. Is that kid..."

Everyone was asking about Taehyung and Lee Dong-wook felt overwhelmed. Indeed, when a group of older people gossip, they are unstoppable.

'He's Kim Taehyung! Isn't it normal for Kim Taehyung to be mega rich?'

"He runs a business and owns companies all over the country, as well as abroad. He's the richest man in the country and is a proper businessman. He's the one who's investing in our film and those gifts are from him too."

After saying that, Lee Dong-wook secretly thought to himself, 'What belongs to Second Young Madam Kim is Mr. Kim's too, so Second Young Madam Kim's investment is the same as Mr. Kim's investment.'

The elderly villagers' expressions became even more exaggerated after hearing those words.

Having lived for decades, they never thought that they would have the opportunity to meet the richest man in the country once.

Y/N knew that Taehyung was a wealthy man's son who was born with a golden spoon in his mouth. She brought him to the room that she was temporarily staying in and subconsciously patted the chair to gesture for him to take a seat.

"That's how things are in the village. If you're bothered by it, you can just leave on your own."

Taehyung glanced around the room to see that the decor was rather simple but tidy. He sat down, placed a hand on his desk, and knocked on it gently as he said in a deep and gentle voice, "Darling, I've spent a month living in the wilderness before."

"Is that so?" Y/N raised her eyebrows, obviously a little surprised.

"Yes."

Just as he was about to speak, the cell phone in his pocket suddenly rang. Y/N rarely brought her phone along with her when she went for filming. After taking a look, she realized that she had gotten lots of missed calls.

This time, it was a stranger from Seoul who called.

After giving it some thought, she answered the call and put it on handsfree too.

Soon, Jungkook's unique voice came spreading from the speaker. "Miss Y/N, I heard you go injured during filming. You're an artiste of TG Entertainment and TG Entertainment is subsidiary to the Kim Group. You must have gotten injured because the crew failed to do a good job at preparations."

After saying that, Jungkook paused for a moment. "Miss Y/N, why don't you terminate your contract with TG Entertainment and let me pay for the damages for the breach of contract? Come join my company. How does that sound?"

Y/N puffed her cheeks up without saying anything. Instead, she turned to look at Taehyung.

Taehyung remained calm with his thin lips pressed together while glancing at the white cell phone in Y/N's hand.

"Miss Y/N?" Seeing that Y/N hadn't replied yet, Jungkook continued, "Did you pass out? Miss Y/N, at a critical juncture, I'm still the most reliable person you can count on. A professional medical team is expected to arrive at the village where you are filming in half an hour. Miss Y/N, are you touched? Will you consider divorcing that sly fox Taehyung and marrying me instead?"

Taehyung finally spoke up. "It seems that you try to seduce my wife very frequently when I'm not around, Mr. Jeon."

Jungkook was clearly stunned. After a moment of silence, he finally retorted provocatively, "An outstanding and beautiful woman is bound to attract a lot of suitors. I admire Miss Y/N so I've decided to woo her. What's wrong with that?"

"As we all know, Mr. Jeon, you are born into a family of rogues. It's better for you to speak like a human."

Y/N suddenly felt that Taehyung was actually very sharp-tongued even though he usually seemed like a gentlemanly scum.

Jungkook was still ready to tempt Y/N with a few more sentences but Taehyung had already grabbed the phone and hung up.

Less than a minute later, the hilarious ringtone sounded again. This time, it was a call from Jimin.

It was surprising that Y/N had saved Jimin's contact number.

"Darling, you're very popular with men."

Y/N said with a look of disdain, "They're so passé. I need some fresh blood."

Taehyung squinted and picked up on her behalf.

"Little pepper will you die? What am I going to do if you die? It must be very painful to be so badly injured, right? Wait, I'll book a flight over now!"

???

'Damn it!'

Y/N snatched her phone back and hollered with a hand on her waist, "I'm doing extremely well. You're the one who's going to die alongside with your family! Get lost, if you dare to show up here, I'll beat the living daylights out of you!"

The extent of Jimin's thick-skinned behavior and shamelessness, was unparalleled especially when he was in front of Y/N.

"Little pepper, your voice is full of gusto, you must be alright. At times like this, what a dainty and vulnerable woman like you needs the most is the company of a hunk. Little pepper, wait for me, I'll..."

Jimin's manager seemed to have snatched his cell phone away. "Y/N, Jimin has gotten a little high from drinking today. Go ahead with filming and rest assured that we won't let him disturb you again."

Jimin's manager had always known that Y/N was like a menacing stallion that was wild and untamed. Meanwhile, Jimin could barely handle a feisty woman, let alone try to tame and subdue Y/N.

"Y/N, rest well, we still have some entertaining and socializing to do. I'll hang up now."

Jimin's clamoring could still be head vaguely.

After hanging up, Y/N finally rolled her eyes and sprawled herself across the bed ungracefully.

"Taehyung had never taken his eyes off her.

So, Jimin is an illegitimate son who's Jungkook's half-brother. Damn, what a shocking and juicy piece of news!"

"You knew about it?"

Taehyung nodded and said, "Yes, the Jeon family is a rival of the Kim family. It's better to know your enemies well."

'So Taehyung clearly knew about it long ago but he chose not to let me know? What a dog.'

Y/N's heart was full of disdain.

"It's getting dark, Mr. Kim, are you not planning to head back?"

Taehyung stood up and walked towards the window where he could see the busy villagers in the courtyard.

The village chief's home's courtyard was rather large and the ground was paved with cement so it was rather clean. At this moment, there were several tables in the courtyard. The open-air stove was lit up too. The village chief and his wife were cooking up some dishes with a few elderly ladies.

Taehyung was getting rather immersed in it.

Y/N was already feeling extremely sleepy but she was soon jolted awake by the aroma of the dishes.

She quickly sprung up and stood beside Taehyung. "Mr. Kim, you're so impressive. We've never had such a lively occasion since we entered."

It was almost the Lunar New Year.

Seeing how displeased she was, Taehyung said calmly, "It's all thanks to you, Darling."

Taehyung suddenly came to visit and brought plenty of expensive food ingredients with him. The villagers were all in high spirits but Lee Dong-wook and the others were on tenterhooks.

Taehyung was a big boss and ordinary people might never get to meet a big boss all their lives. Yet, he was now eating at the same table as them.

How exciting!

"Mr. Kim, tonight, you and Second... You may stay in the same house as Y/N. Feel free to give us any instructions if you need to," Lee Dong-wook said fawningly.

The village chief was much more cultured after all.. He often read financial news and after recognizing Taehyung, he began currying his favor as much as possible.

"This small village of ours is not like the big city. We are short in plenty of supplies. Uh... Mr. Kim, please don't mind it!"

Taehyung brought Assistant Wen over this time but none of the escort team tagged along.

Seeing that the villagers were looking at him like he was a monkey, Y/N was a little worried that he might get hurt by accident.

The air was chilly and soon after dinner, the sky became completely dark.

The villagers went to bed early but the crew had to film some more make-up scenes at night. Taehyung sat at the side and watched.

Y/N had already changed into a worn out cotton jacket and was discussed the script with the male lead.

They were about to shoot the scene of Moon's biological parents getting ready to take her home and Zhang Mingtian asking her to go stargazing with him.

"Mingtian, only your the view of your back will be captured in almost all your scenes. Don't be too nervous. Y/N, take good care of him," Lee Dong-wook instructed, holding onto the extremely crumpled and rolled up script.

Y/N made an 'OK' sign with her fingers and couldn't help but look at Taehyung again.

He was seated in the periphery of the set and some staff members were holding up a large umbrella to shield him from the sun.

This scene would involve some intimate physical contact because Zhang Mingtian would be confessing his love to Moon and asking her to wait for him in the city. He would also kiss her on the cheek.

They initially planned to let Zhang Mingtian really kiss Y/N on the cheek but since Taehyung's arrival, Lee Dong-wook immediately changed his mind and decided to stage it instead.

"Okay, let's get started."

With a loud clap of the clapperboard, Y/N and Zhang Mingtian sat side by side on a boulder by the edge of the cliff.

The sky was full of stars and the bright, clear moon was shining onto the landscape below, shrouding the trees in moonlight.

"Moon, is the city very far away from here?" Zhang Mingtian asked as he carefully inched closer to her and even tilted his head slightly to the side to gaze at her side profile.

"It seems to be very far. Mingtian, I don't want to go to the city at all, it's much nicer here where I get to be with all of you."

"But when you reunite with your biological parents, you can go to a vocational school. How nice is that? Rest assured and go, I'll take care of things here on your behalf. In I'll definitely go to the city to look for you!" Zhang Mingtian said in a firm tone of voice.

"Okay, I'll wait for you in the city then!"

"Moon, I... I..."

At this point, Zhang Mingtian suddenly began to get nervous as he clutched his pants tightly while staring at Y/N's face. He wanted to move closer to her but he didn't dare to do so.

Finally, Lee Dong-wook couldn't stand it anymore. "Zhang Mingtian, don't be so nervous. Just pull in closer and pretend to kiss Y/N's cheek."

As soon as he said that, he felt a sudden, chilly breeze.

Lee Dong-wook shivered, pulled his jacket to wrap himself up tightly, and muttered, "That's strange. Why is it getting colder?"

Zhang Mingtian was actually only about twenty years old and did not have any experience in acting. He had never been in such close contact with a girl either.

Hence, even though he wasn't really going to kiss Y/N, he still felt extremely nervous.

"Um, well, can you remove this part? I think sitting next to each other and chatting while stargazing is enough."

Lee Dong-wook insisted firmly, "No, this scene will become a classic of our film in the future so we have to include the kiss. Just pretend that Y/N is a block of wood or someone you have a crush on."

That made Zhang Mingtian even more awkward. He scratched the back of his head and said awkwardly, "I... I don't have a crush on anyone."

"..."

All of a sudden, an alluring male voice sounded. "Director Lee, the face of the actor doesn't have to be captured in this scene, right"

Lee Dong-wook subconsciously looked at Taehyung and suddenly recalled the fact that Taehyung was Y/N's husband.

'With Mr. Kim's domineering aura, it's no wonder that Zhang Mingtian can't stop feeling nervous.'

"Ahem, yes, yes, Mr. Kim, don't worry.. We're only going to make it look like a kiss and they'll stop when he's a millimeter away from Y/N's face."

Taehyung nodded and assented before looking at the two who were filming.

Zhang Mingtian suddenly thought of something and stood up excitedly. "Director Lee, I remember that it's a common practice to use doubles in acting, right? Why don't... Why don't you find me a double? I-I really can't do it."

He looked at Y/N shyly. Although she was dressed like a bumpkin and her face was stained with dirt, she was still pretty.

Moreover, her husband was right there!

Lee Dong-wook was on the verge of losing his temper. 'A double? He's just an actor that we found off-the-cuff and he wants a double too? If we have a suitable double, what would we need him for?'

"We don't have a double who can stand in for you. Well, you were doing quite a good job previously and we already told you that you're not really going to kiss her." Lee Dong-wook glanced at Taehyung and continued, "Even if you really want to kiss her, I won't let you!"

"But..."

At this juncture, Taehyung slowly stood up, straightened his black coat, and glanced at Lee Dong-wook with a deep gaze in his eyes. "Since Mr. Zhang really can't do it, I don't mind being his double."

Lee Dong-wook and the rest of the crew were flabbergasted!

Even Y/N who was throwing stones down the mountain was baffled.

'What is Doggy Taehyung trying to do?'

Lee Dong-wook's eyes lit up and agreed, "Sure, that's a great idea, Mr. Kim. Since you're Y/N's husband, no one is more suitable than you for this scene. Don't worry, we'll be filming this scene with your back facing the camera, so your face won't be captured."

Taehyung nodded and asked Assistant Wen to bring him a set of clothes for the male lead.

When Taehyung reappeared in front of the crowd, he had changed into an old-fashioned, navy green suit that was made of cotton. It resembled the clothing that young villagers wore in the 70s and 80s.

Everyone once again realized what it means to look good in anything.

People who look good in anything can make even a plain, hemp suit look fashionable.

At this moment, Lee Dong-wook was a little excited and his palms were sweaty.

'Am I the only director in the world who has directed a film that Mr. Kim acted in? He's doing a friendly cameo too.'

However, Taehyung wasn't really doing a cameo but rather, he was just a double.

The thought of it made Lee Dong-wook even more grateful because he felt that getting to know an actress like Y/N was his greatest blessing in this life!

Taehyung looked at her calmly and then walked over to sit down beside her. "Supporting your career is what I should do as your husband."

'What a hypocrite. Who was the one who terminated my black card because he thought that I was spending too much?'

Although he had already made up for it, she still bore a grudge against him.

"Darling, I'm a newbie, please be more compromising if make some mistakes," Taehyung suddenly said. He then looked at Lee Dong-wook and said, "Director Lee, we can begin."

Lee Dong-wook frantically nodded and everyone stared at their backs.

Y/N had already gotten ready but after Taehyung replaced Zhang Mingtian, he somehow felt a little nervous.

The two of them didn't say anything but the chilly breeze blew onto their faces, making them feel like their cheeks were about to freeze.

All of a sudden, Y/N felt her ear turning warm. Before she could even react, Taehyung spoke up again. "I forgot it's a kiss on the cheek.. Director Lee, let's do it again."

Lee Dong-wook still couldn't recover from the shock for a while. "Ah, the shooting is quite good, kissing the ears is a good idea."

That was even more ambiguous.

Lee Dong-wook did not dare to say the rest of his sentence.

Taehyung glanced at him with a cold gaze. "Director Lee, I hope the final product of this film won't disappoint me."

If Lee Dong-wook still couldn't guess what Taehyung meant, he would have lived his life in vain.

He glanced at Y/N before taking another careful look at Taehyung. Lee Dong-wook immediately recovered from the shock and touched his chin lewdly.

"Ah, turns out they have such a loving relationship. Mr. Kim is always trying to show Y/N some affection."

"Mr. Kim, I think you're very right. We have to strive to improve. Kissing the ear is indeed going to be less poignant than a kiss on the cheek. Everyone, let's get ready to start filming again!"

Y/N tugged Taehyung's shirt and glowered at him with menace. "Are you doing it on purpose?"

"I just don't want to drag you down with me."

'He's making it sound better than it really is.'

Since it was her job after all, Y/N soon adjusted her mood and got back into work mode.

In fact, she just had to sit in place and look straight ahead without having to do anything else.

The two of them sat side by side each other. The scenery on the mountaintop at night was beautiful and just right for a shoot.

At this moment, Taehyung suddenly turned his head to the side to look at her side profile before slowly planting a kiss on her cheek.

His kiss was so light and gentle that Y/N felt as if a feather was grazed lightly against her skin, making her heart race rapidly.

Lee Dong-wook couldn't help but sigh with admiration. 'Good-looking people are just so pleasing to the eye. The outcome of this shoot must be excellent.'

By the time she returned to the room, it was already midnight. Staring at the moderately-sized bed, Y/N said, "Why don't I ask the village chief to arrange for you to stay in another room? Mr. Kim, I believe as a gentleman, you won't mind."

"This bed is fine. It's just nice for the two of us, Darling."

"Mr. Kim, we're under someone else's roof now and we're considered guests. It doesn't seem appropriate for us to be sleeping in the same room, does it?" While speaking, Y/N winked at Taehyung and continued, "Or is it that you've overcome your fear towards women and you're starting to lust for more?"

"Darling, when have you become so good at observing?"

Y/N licked her lips, twisted her slender waist, and walked towards Taehyung. She then reached her arms out and wrapped them around his neck while saying sultrily, "Mr. Kim, I actually do miss you a lot. Since you don't mind being awkward here, why don't we just..."

At this point, Y/N freed up a hand and began unbuttoning Taehyung's shirt. "Mr. Kim, even your Adam's apple is so sexy. I've been lusting for your body for a long time. Since you don't seem to be very resistant to me now, let's get the deed done."

Taehyung remained silent and watched her every move.

Y/N had completely wrapped herself around him like a snake, constantly letting her hands wander around on his body.

Seeing that she was almost going to remove his shirt, Taehyung finally pressed her hand down and interjected, "Enough."

"Mr. Kim, it seems that you're not only suffering from misogyny." She glanced at his crotch and continued, "You seem to have some other difficulties too!"

That was the typical way that female protagonists of novels would anger the male protagonists. It was tried and tested, and proven to be absolutely foolproof.

However, Taehyung wasn't like ordinary men as he didn't seem to be offended in the slightest.

'I'm just scared you won't be able to take it, Darling," he said calmly.

'Won't be able to take it?'

Y/N was stunned but she suddenly recovered from the shock. Despite being thick-skinned, she couldn't help but feel shy.

"Ahem, how would I know if I don't give it a try?"

For the sake of filming, Y/N didn't use any skincare products so her cheeks had been rather rosy from the cold weather lately. Moreover, she was incredibly awkward now so it looked like she was blushing with shyness.

With an ascetic expression, Taehyung stood up and leaned against the window instead. Staring at Y/N with his arms folded, he said, "Darling, your estrogen is in overdrive, you can try relieving yourself."

'What's going on?'

Y/N was dumbfounded and her eyes widened in shock. 'Estrogen is in overdrive? Relieve myself?'

After giving it some brief thought, she instantly understood what he meant.

Feeling ashamed and furious, Y/N picked up a pillow behind her and hit Taehyung with it. "Taehyung, you're shameless, vicious, evil, and lewd!"

Taehyung caught the pillow and tossed it back to Y/N. He said with a smirk, "I was just giving you a kind reminder, Darling."

Y/N humphed coldly. 'No wonder Jungkook always calls Doggy Taehyung a cunning fox. Not only is he a cunning fox, he's an absolute villain who is vicious and doesn't dare to admit to his true feelings.'

'He's a combination of a weasel and a fox.'

After setting the pillow straight, Y/N removed her jacket, lifted the blanket, and lied down on the bed in one fluid action.

Taehyung merely looked askance at her without saying anything else. He then turned around and took out the computer bag that Assistant Wen had just delivered to him. After placing his laptop on the table, he took out a small black electronic device and plugged it into his computer. He then started working diligently.

It was very quiet in the room so the sounds of his fingers clicking against the keyboard could be heard. Unable to stand it any longer, Y/N finally sat up and saw that there were many documents opened on the screen of his laptop. "The Internet connection network here is so lousy, how did you manage to get connected?"

"Electronic technology research and development is one of Kim Group's core businesses."

After taking a look at the device connected to his laptop, Y/N chose not to speak up.

By the time Taehyung closed his laptop, it was already three in the morning. He turned around, only to realize that Y/N had surprisingly not fallen asleep yet.

She was laying flat on her back and staring at the ceiling while spacing out.

"Aren't you going to sleep yet?"

"It's too boring. Before you leave, lend me that device that strengthens the internet signal. I'm going to start rotting if I continue being deprived of watching drama."

Ever since she transmigrated to this era, she didn't have any other hobbies except binging on local television dramas.

"Darling, is it convenient for you to take two days off from work?" Taehyung suddenly asked.

Y/N was stunned and she squinted at his handsome face. "What are you planning to do?"

"There's a place that I'd like to take you to for some fun."

'Fun?'

Seeing how hesitant she was, Taehyung added, "Yuanyun City, the border between Korea and the neighboring country. There are diamonds and other ores to mine for." At this point, he paused before continuing, "Team No. 1 will be receiving us, are you sure you don't want to come along?"

(Yuanyuan city is not real, It's imagination)

'Diamond mining?'

Y/N instantly perked up and she agreed with glistening eyes, "Yes, we have to go. Do those diamonds belong to us?"

Taehyung nodded. "Yes."

"You're not trafficking them, are they? Are they illegal products?"

'Does he want to send me to be a scapegoat?'

Taehyung's lips twitched and he said, "No, there's a force that has been coveting it for a long time."

Y/N had an epiphany. 'Does he want me to be his bodyguard?'

However, since they were going to protect some diamond material, it would be worth it.

"Well then, I'll..."

"Go ahead and choose as you please."

Y/N was grinning widely from ear to ear. "I'll go, I'm going for sure. Don't worry, Mr. Kim, I'll . definitely get those diamond materials back safely."

Y/N was very efficient in acting in the first place. Besides, now that Taehyung was around, Lee Dong-wook approved of her leave without even thinking.

In fact, he even gave her an extra day off.

Yuanyun City was once very barren and suffered from poverty but later on, it was selected as a filming location for a certain drama or movie, and since then, it became extremely famous on the Internet, especially since it was located on the borders.

Most of the people living here were ethnic minorities, and the entire city exuded a rich cultural vibe.

It was Y/N's first time being here.

Ten members of Team No. 1 were there, including Taemin and their leader, Ji-woong.

Y/N's headphones were hanging on her neck and she tagged along behind Taehyung slowly. She didn't look like she was there to protect the diamonds but rather, for a vacation.

"Second Young Master, why is Second Young Madam Kim here?"

Y/N may be good at martial arts but to Ji-woong, she was still just a girl.

This time, their confrontation with the enemies would involve firearms, which was really no laughing matter.

"Ji-woong, do you have something against me?" Y/N asked before Taehyung said anything.

Ji-woong bowed respectfully and answered with a straight face, "No."

Y/N humphed coldly perfunctorily.

"Tonight you will head over together with the Second Young Madam Kim." Taehyung instructed. He then turned to look at Y/N again and said with an affectionate tone of voice, "Just let her do as she pleases."

Ji-woong and the rest of Team No. 1 looked at Taehyung unanimously with disbelief.

'Second Young Master, have you been bewitched by her charm? We're now facing lawless crooks who are absolutely merciless and care about nothing except money. This is not child's play in the base camp! If they're carrying any firearms, Second Young Madam Kim will die even if she can fight very well!'

Ji-woong hurriedly lowered his head and said, "I wouldn't dare to."

Y/N discovered that Taehyung seemed to be implying that he wouldn't be coming along.

"Where are you going?"

Taehyung reached out and rubbed the top of her head before answering calmly, "To earn money and provide for you."

"..."

Taehyung's subordinates witnessed the lovey-dovey interaction!

Pretending to be shy, Y/N pressed her thumb and index finger together before waving it a little. "Hey~ you're so annoying~"

"I have other things to deal with. Have fun and I'll come pick you up tomorrow night." Taehyung ignored her pretense and turned around to leave without looking back after saying those words.

'Is he here to pick me up after such a dangerous and laborious task? But...'

Y/N squinted. 'It's been a long time since I did something so exciting, if I could...'

She first looked at Ji-woong who was just like a blockhead, and clicked her tongue against the roof of her mouth in disdain before turning to look at Taemin, at whom she curled her fingers.

Taemin was extremely terrified of Y/N. Seeing this, he trembled and walked towards her. "Second...Second Young Madam Kim, do you have any orders for me?"

"It means that our goods may be robbed if someone is coveting them, right?"

Taemin nodded profusely. "Yes."

"Who are we going to face this time? Do they have goods too?"

"They're a force from the US who are quite close to the Park family. They're business partners who seem to be on friendly terms with the Kim family on the surface but often get up to sordid acts in private."

Y/N rubbed her ears and barked, "Get straight to the main point!"

She wasn't interested in these family feuds. All she cared about were the goods.

"There's a large plot of land away from here that does not belong to any state or country, but it's a place that we definitely have to pass by. This time, we're sharing the unearthed raw materials and mining land with them but we were lucky enough to have gotten a larger share from the ground belonging to us."

Y/N nodded. She understood the situation.

The land that was tantamount to the origin of diamonds was divided into two between both families but the Kim Family was lucky to have gotten the better half of the land.

"No matter how much is dug up, they'll still have some goods, right?"

Taemin nodded and said, "Yes, it should be quite a large amount too, though lesser than our share."

With a shiny glint in her eyes, Y/N said, "Is it illegal for them to be robbing us? Are there any police forces?"

"Second Young Madam Kim, that plot of land does not belong to any country. If anything happens, we can only blame it on bad luck. Even the Interpol will not meddle with it."

Stroking her chin with one hand, Y/N said, "But we can't be so timid and cowardly. We have to make the first strike."

She had a bizarre and sinister smile on her face that made even Ji-woong shiver uncontrollably.

Late at night, a heavily modified cargo truck was driven over along the muddy road.

In the dark of the night, the cargo truck seemed particularly conspicuous.

It suddenly pulled over and the driver quickly opened the door before scurrying into the forest with his hands on his crotch.

"Boss, are you sure this is the Kim family's van? How come there isn't even a bodyguard, just a driver?"

On the other side, more than ten people were lurking furtively behind a few withered trees. They were wearing uniform clothing and holding weapons in their hands.

"Maybe they're deliberately trying to make us lower our guard."

"Doesn't seem like it. Maybe there's a greater conspiracy behind this. Maybe their people are also hiding somewhere and are just waiting for us to throw ourselves into the net. This is a big deal, we can't afford to be careless. Let's just wait and observe the situation."

...

Less than five kilometers from them, Y/N sat down on a boulder, clad in clothing that resembled the attire of an assassin in ancient times and munching on an apple joyfully.

Ji-woong, Taemin, and two members of Team No. 1 were behind her. 103.140.135.225

"Second Young Madam Kim, the Park family, and Chris are cooperating this time and they're both formidable figures. Why don't we just forget it?" One of the team members could not help but persuade.

'We're here to snatch the goods but she only brought these few? Should I call her innocent or ignorant?'

Y/N glared at him hostilely and questioned, "Why should we forget about it? Or are you scared?"

'You must be kidding, of course, we're scared! God knows how many people they've brought with them.'

Of course, they didn't dare to voice their thoughts out loud or vent their anger so they had no choice but to force themselves to bear with it.

When Y/N was almost done with her second apple, the other party's cars were driven over slowly.

There was a total of three cars, with the one in the middle being a minivan. The cabin was sometimes bright and sometimes dim but the driver could be seen making a phone call.

Y/N casually tossed the core of the apple away and rubbed the corner of her lips with the back of her hand. She then stood up abruptly and said, "Get ready to work. Stay here and if you see anyone from their side sneaking away with the goods, hold him down and strangle him to death."

After saying that, she pulled up the black scarf on her neck and sauntered towards them with a wrist-thick tree branch on her shoulder.

The night was dark and breezy. All of a sudden, a figure darted out and the three cars came to a halt at the same time.

In an instant, more than twenty tall, foreign men got off the car and spread themselves out skillfully.

The leader of the group seemed to be a Eurasian. He asked, "Who are you?"

Y/N put a hand on her waist and thrust the tree branch into the ground with the other. She said extremely arrogantly, "This is my road, if you want to pass, leave the diamonds behind."

Ji-woong and the others who were standing nearby pursed their lips.

'Sister! Do you really think we're acting in a movie now? They're genuine outlaws who won't hesitate to kill, not the background actors of your filming crew!'

The group of foreigners looked at each other in puzzlement, obviously not understanding what Y/N was saying. However, the Eurasian man who was the leader of the group laughed loudly and looked askance at Y/N with an extremely contemptuous look on his face.

"Girl, do you think we're playing a game here? Get lost quickly. Be careful, our fists don't have eyes."

Y/N ignored him and said, "You either leave the goods behind or prepare to die. Take your pick."

With her chin raised arrogantly, she was just like a female bandit leader.

"Other things aside, Second Young Madam Kim does have the potential to be a bandit because she really looks the part now that she's acting like one, "Taemin muttered softly to himself.

Ji-woong glared at him and instructed, "Call the other members of the team and tell them to come here quickly to provide support."

Previously, his impression of Y/N had changed a little because of her actions but now...

Ji-woong felt that there was definitely something wrong with Y/N's brains.

The Eurasian man laughed out loud and tossed his lighter at Y/N.

Y/N moved slightly towards the side and the lighter brushed past her before landing on the ground with a light thud.

Her smile faded immediately and she stared at the Eurasian man with an icy cold gaze. "Apologize."

"What?"

Y/N repeated patiently, "I said, apologize."

"Do you know who I am? You've got quite a good figure. Care to have some fun with us?"

Seeing that his lecherous hand was about to touch her shoulder, Y/N swung the tree branch and hit the man's arm with it.

Seething in pain, he glowered at Y/N and questioned, "Do you have a death wish?"

The chilly wind came blowing over, causing the leaves to rustle.

Ji-woong and the others watched as Y/N shuttled through the men smoothly like a mudskipper.

She had peculiar reflexes and martial arts moves. Although they had fought in countless battles, they still couldn't figure out her moves.

The bunch of burly men who looked like they could easily crush a woman to death was rendered powerless by Y/N.

Soon, Y/N regained her balance while the bunch of men started wailing loudly on the ground.

In full view of everyone, Y/N strutted towards the van. The van driver was sitting in the driver's seat and shivering while staring at Y/N.

"What are you shivering for? Hand the goods over," Y/N ordered ferociously.

The driver shivered even more vigorously and he handed the keys to her with shaky hands. "I want the key to the van, not the back door..."

"Go open the door."

"I..."

Y/N squinted and stared at him with folded arms. "Hmm?"

Sensing an eerie chilliness, the driver opened the door and crawled out of the van before stumbling towards the back to open the door.

Y/N turned slightly sideways while keeping her eyes fixed on the back door.

Soon, the back door was opened and Y/N was greeted with the sight of a thick, metal briefcase.

Y/N shoved the driver aside and got into the van. The lid was rather heavy and it took her a great amount of effort to open it, only to be immediately presented with diamond material.

"I've struck a windfall this time."

Y/N's eyes lit up and she whistled at Ji-woong and the rest.

Dumbstruck, Ji-woong looked at the other members of Team No. 1 before walking towards the van robotically.

When Y/N ordered them to carry the briefcase out of the van, the Eurasian man had already slowly gotten up on his feet.

However, before he could regain his balance, Y/N glared daggers at him, causing him to shudder and fall back onto the ground again.

Silently watching everything unfold before him, Ji-woong finally swallowed his saliva.

He felt that she was quite...

It was quite out of the blue.

Compared to the amount of raw materials that the Kim Family had dug, they indeed had much lesser but this crate was definitely worth a lot of money.

Y/N even suspected that Taehyung became rich by peddling diamonds.

'He's a diamond magnate! I have to extort a huge sum of money from him before we get divorced. Otherwise, I'd be letting this marriage down!'

Even till now, Taemin still felt that everything was so surreal when he was holding the large crate in his arms. "Captain, we've snatched their goods away, haven't we?"

Ji-woong glanced at him in disdain, as if he were looking at a retard. "What do you think you're carrying in your arms then?"

"..."

All of a sudden, Y/N who had been walking in front, suddenly turned around again. A few of the members of Team No. 1 stopped as well, completely treating her like she was a god.

Y/N said, "Madam Park has instructed me to tell you that if you want to confront anyone, go look for Jungkook."

The corner of Ji-woong's lips twitched.

Since Taehyung was a longtime rival of Jungkook, he knew Jungkook very well.

'Hence...

'Is Second Young Madam Kim creating trouble for Bo-young or Jungkook?'

'Why does Second Young Madam Kim seem to be rather vicious? She's actually a little bit like Second Young Master.'

Everyone watched as Y/N sauntered away with the escort team and the goods.

Taehyung met up with them the following afternoon.

The Park family and Chris's family were already in a huge mess now as they had completely fallen out with each other. The helmsman of Chris's family even declared that he would teach Bo-young a hard lesson.

Y/N sat cross-legged on the sofa with a lollipop and a tablet in hand. She looked just like a rogue and nothing like a rich man's wife.

"Seems like you had a lot of fun last night, Darling," said Taehyung who had just heard Ji-woong's report.

Y/N bit down on the lollipop to crush it. "Mr. Kim, thank you for the compliment. I went through painstaking means and risked my life to fight a hard battle against those burly men, in order to get the goods. Don't you think I'm entitled to half of it?"

Ji-woong couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat on his forehead when he heard that.

'How bold of Second Young Madam Kim to say that.'

To his surprise, Taehyung was particularly generous. "Darling, you can have the entire crate."

Y/N suddenly sprung up and asked with glistening eyes, "Really?"

"Of course."

While Y/N was about to instruct Ji-woong to have the goods moved to her room, Taehyung said again in an alluring voice, "Darling, you have to return to the mountain for filming so I'll safe keep the goods for you for the time being. If you think you'll miss them, you can pick out a few pieces and keep them with you."

'Damn!'

"Are you taking me for a ride?" Y/N glowered at him with her beautiful, round eyes wide open.

"I'm just exercising my rights and authority as your husband within a reasonable degree."

'You call that reasonable? As if I'd believe you. Doggy Taehyung is really vile.'

Y/N picked a few of the largest pieces of diamond material and watched in agony as the briefcase was taken away from her.

Taehyung gently pinched her cheeks with his bony fingers and said, "Let's go."

"Where to?"

"For a meal," he said coldly and indifferently.

Y/N blinked. "Have you recovered?"

Taehyung answered expressionlessly, "No."

"Why did you touch me then?"

"You're my wife, it's okay to touch you."

Ji-woong quietly left them to their public display of affection.

It was no wonder Assistant Wen would often clamor about wanting to get a girlfriend in the chat group.

He envied Y/N and Taehyung.

Taehyung took Y/N to a riverside fish restaurant that was owned by an elderly couple.

The restaurant seemed to be rather aged as the interior decor was a little shabby. However, it was very tidy and clean.

The restaurant was by the riverside and it offered an excellent view. Dining here was indeed quite enjoyable.

Y/N looked around and couldn't help but ask, "Why is there no one at those tables? Are you sure the food here is good?"

Taehyung calmly poured a cup of tea for her and said, "You'll find out after you eat."

Y/N looked at him with suspicion and and suddenly understood that Taehyung must have booked the entire place.

Soon, the lady owner whose hair was almost entirely gray came over with the menu, and looked at Taehyung with a benevolent smile. "Little Kim, do you want the usual?"

'Little Kim? Taehyung is a regular customer here? But this place is quite far from the city!'

At this moment, the lady looked at Y/N and said, "This girl is so pretty. Little Kim, is she your girlfriend?"

Taehyung was very polite to the lady. He smiled and said, "She's my wife, Y/N."

"Your wife, I see. Wow, Little Kim, you're married. Oh well, it makes sense. I haven't seen you in almost three years, it's only normal for you to be married. How about a dish of pickled vegetables and fish?" While speaking, the lady looked at Y/N again and said, "Miss, we serve the best pickled vegetables and fish, I promise you'll be satisfied."

Y/N was rather sick of fish. When she first took over the Black Cloud Fortress, they were extremely poor and her underlings had no choice but to go down the mountain to fish. She then had fish for several months in a row.

However, she didn't want to dampen the spirits of the lady so she said, "Okay, we'll have fish and pickled vegetables then."

After they left, Y/N tugged Taehyung's sleeve and asked, "This place is thousands of miles away from the city, how do you have the time to come here so often?"

Taehyung looked up and said, "It's more convenient to use this route for the transportation of some goods."

He had unintentionally chanced upon this restaurant too. He was a picky eater but he approved of the fish here.

Suddenly, the lady came over with two more fishing rods and said, "Miss, why don't you and Little Kim go fish in the river by yourselves? The fish that you catch yourselves will definitely taste better."

'Fish?'

Y/N looked at the river outside, feeling a little awkward.

She had gone fishing several times before but she had never once succeeded in catching a fish.

Before Y/N could answer, Taehyung had already held onto her arm and stood up. "Let's go, I want to eat the fish that you catch, Darling."

Y/N blinked at Taehyung and said with a sweet smile, "I prefer catching you, Mr. Kim."

Taehyung said aloofly, "Darling, we're in the presence of an elderly couple here. Please be more reserved."

Taehyung was the most boring person in the world.

Taehyung and Y/N used the same fishing rod under the pretext that they were trying to help him cure his abhorrence towards women.

Y/N sat on the chair with one leg crossed over the other, holding onto a bowl of fried peas and snacking on them. Taehyung was standing right behind her. He bent over slightly to put his arms over her neck. Clearly, the fish had taken the bait.

Y/N shoved the fried peas into her mouth and began to get anxious. She exclaimed incoherently, "Let me do it, let me. Ah, this fish must be really heavy!"

The fishing rod was bent and out of shape.

Seeing that Y/N was about to mess things up as she flailed her arms around, Taehyung's handsome face turned sullen and he said, "Sit still, don't mess this up."

As soon as he said that, the fish suddenly broke free from the hook and fell back into the river.

"Taehyung, it's all your fault!"

"Darling, you were the one who messed up."

Y/N sulked and said with animosity, "Obey my commands next time."

After nearly an hour of fishing, they still didn't catch a single fish.

Y/N suddenly realized something. Taehyung wasn't almighty.

'At the very least, he doesn't know how to fish and he's stupider than I am!'

In the end, the pair chose to have fish that had already been caught and was available at the restaurant.

The fish sold at this restaurant was indeed very delicious, especially the fish soup and rice. Y/N had already had two bowls of it.

Taehyung had a clean small plate in front of him and was concentrating on picking out the fish bones.

"How do you guys handle the raw material of diamonds?"

Taehyung answered patiently, "We process and polish it."

"..."

'So, how in the world did this boring man get married?'

In the Kim Family's manor back in the city.

Kai was now at the stairwell while Jennie was seated on the couch, holding the hem of her skirt tightly.

Seokjin and Jisso were seated opposite each other and the current ambiance was really bizarre.

There was a stack of documents on the coffee table and the words "Divorce Agreement" were particularly eye-catching.

Jisso placed both hands on her knees and straightened her back. She was wearing a purple vintage dress and looked particularly elegant.

"I don't need anything from the Kim family and you, I'll leave without a single cent of yours. Now, I just need you to sign this agreement, Mr. Kim." She spoke softly, but with obvious firmness as she glanced at Seokjin calmly.

She had once fallen in love with him at first sight and her heart would race whenever she saw him but now, she could only face him calmly.

"I will announce to the public that I divorced you for my own reasons, and it won't cause you any trouble."

After saying that, Jisso couldn't help but look around. "I won't step foot into this place and cause you any trouble either."

Seokjin didn't say anything and instead stared at the divorce agreement on the coffee table.

Usually, he would wear a smile on his face all the time and he seemed like a gentleman. At this moment, he had a cold expression on his face and it seemed impossible to find out what he was thinking.

Jennie suddenly grinned and said, "Ah, we're all a family, why do you have to make things turn out this way? Sister-in-law, did Brother make you upset? Just let me know. We're all on your side."

Jisso had a good impression of Jennie.

She shook her head with a smile on her face, still maintaining the posture of a dignified mistress of the family. "Jennie, your big brother and I just don't have feelings for each other, and if we continue staying married to each other, it won't be good for either of us. Once we get a divorce, your brother will finally get to marry the person he genuinely likes."

"But Grandpa only approves of you. Big Brother, quickly say something!"

Jennie began to get a little anxious. 'Second Sister-in-law likes Jisso so much. If she finds out that Jisso has left while she's away for filming, she'll definitely confront Kai and me.'

With that thought in mind, Jennie quickly winked at Kai who was at the stairwell.

Kai covered her mouth and coughed twice. "Jennie is right. It's normal for married couples to have a tiff. Don't get divorced just because of that. Grandpa is waiting for you to give him a great-grandchild and Second Brother's illness can't be cured so soon. Grandpa can only pin his hopes on you and Brother."

As he spoke, he winked at Jennie again.

"Yes, yes, Third Brother is right. Grandpa has been wanting to have a great-grandchild. You and Brother are both so good-looking, your child will definitely be good-looking too. I'm already looking forward to seeing him or her."

Jisso did not get angry and instead just smiled at them. "I believe your next sister-in-law will definitely fulfill Grandpa's wishes. There's no point in forcing a failing marriage to work. That will only cause us to be distressed."

Seokjin did not expect Jisso to be so determined.

Seokjin had indeed always resented this marriage, and he had said that she was the most suitable person for the position of Young Madam Kim.

He pressed his lips together and removed his white coat to reveal his gray turtleneck sweater beneath. "Are you sure you want a divorce?"

He had always known Jisso to be a woman of virtue who knew her place and how to act appropriately. She also had a good temper and was gentle to everyone. She had never embarrassed the Kim Family in front of outsiders.

When she mentioned a divorce previously, he only thought that she was joking or throwing a tantrum.

"I said, I can give you anything you want except my true feelings. Jisso, don't be unreasonable."

Jisso was a little angered but she still had an elegant smile on her face. "I can get what I want on my own, I don't need you to give it to me."

'Since he can't give me his true feelings, why should we force it? Y/N is right, it's time I start living for myself.'

With that thought, Jisso took the initiative to flip to the page of the signature segment of the divorce agreement and placed a pen in front of him.

She smiled a little with a warm and tender gaze. Even her voice was warm and gentle too. "Mr. Kim, we have a long life ahead of us each. Why don't we let each other off? When we got married you told me before that we can get a divorce whenever either of us wants to. Now that I want a divorce, I hope that you can grant my request."

Seokjin's gaze was cold as he stared at Jisso's face in a bid to see some melancholy in them but there wasn't any.

He frowned but nevertheless grabbed the pen. This time, he signed the papers without the slightest hesitation.

However, when he put the pen down, he suddenly felt really empty.

Jisso finally heaved a sigh of relief and carefully placed the divorce agreement into the document case before standing up to bow to Seokjin. "Congratulations, Mr. Kim, you've become single again. I've already packed my things. As for the other things that I didn't take with me, you may dispose of them if they're an eyesore. I hope that you can find a woman to marry soon and have a happy marriage. Let's never meet again."

"Sister-in-law..." Jennie stood up in a moment of panic. "Sister-in-law, you..."

"Jennie, if you don't mind, just call me sister Jisso like you used to when you were a child. You and Y/N are always welcome to visit me."

After saying that, Jisso went upstairs, and soon, she was seen carrying a red suitcase down.

The suitcase was extremely small and it could barely fit any clothes.

Jisso stood at the stairs, looking at the familiar surroundings and living room downstairs. She took a deep breath and smiled again. "I'll get going. If you need me to explain to Grandpa, just contact me."

When Jisso's figure completely disappeared from sight, Jennie stomped her foot and glared at Seokjin. "Big Brother, did you really just sign the papers?"

Seokjin didn't seem to have been affected by the matter. He pressed his lips together and stood up. "There's indeed no point in prolonging a marriage that was built on the basis of business interests and not love."

Y/N and Taehyung had just finished eating and were getting ready to return to their place of accommodation at the moment.

"What's the matter?" Y/N said in annoyance when she saw the incoming call.

Jennie had called her five times in a day. 'Is she in love with me or what?'

"Second Sister-in-law, Second Sister-in-law, bad news. Big Brother and Jisso are getting divorced!" Jennie exclaimed.

Y/N glanced at Taehyung who was beside her and stifled a yawn as she stretched her arm. "Oh."

'Oh? Second Sister-in-law is so calm about this?'

'Isn't Jisso her favorite person in the family?'

"Second Sister-in-law, I said, Big Brother and Jisso have gotten divorced. They're really divorced, and she has moved out too!"

'We've lost a sister-in-law!'
