"Besides, they're just a few girls and you can't even beat them. You're so weak. Jennie, I feel ashamed for you!"

Girls?

A woman was belittling them because they were girls?

"Hey! Don't think you're some big shot just because you're the daughter-in-law of the Kim Family. I bet you'e not welcome in the family. Otherwise, why would Taehyung have kept your marriage a secret for such a long time and gone abroad? You've got a foul mouth too. Disgusting."

Suddenly putting on a warm and gentle smile, Y/N asked, "Are you calling me disgusting?"

"Yes, you and Jennie are equally detestable!"

Jennie was infuriated. No matter how much she disliked Y/N, she wouldn't let an outsider scold her.

Besides, now that they knew Y/N's identity, insulting her would be tantamount to insulting and humiliating the Kim Family.

"Jun-yeon, you..."

Not waiting for Jennie to finish, Y/N suddenly waved her wicker and whipped Jun-yeon's buttocks forcefully with it.

Jun-yeon screamed miserably, and her face turned pale.

She covered her buttocks, gritted her teeth, and glared at Y/N. "B*tch, how dare you hit me?"

"Why can't I hit you when you outnumbered someone and beat her up? Aren't you very capable? Call your little sisters here and get them to fight me. I'm standing up for Jennie now!"

'Damn it!'

'This woman is so arrogant!'

Jun-yeon clenched her fist. In complete disregard of the head of department who was rushing over to stop her, she was all ready to grab Y/N's hair. Once again, Y/N whipped the wicker against the back of her pale hand, causing a large red patch to form on it instantly.

"You must be tired of living. B*tch, I'm going to rip your face up!"

Jun-yeon was so infuriated that her eyes were red and she was rushing forward without hesitation. Y/N turned to the side a little and the wicker landed on her back.

"Now, I'm just defending myself. You're an heiress, but your actions are so vulgar and uncouth. I feel so ashamed for your family!"

As she spoke, she whipped her with the wicker again. "How dare you bully Jennie? Do you really think there's no one else in the Kim Family? You went for a breast augmentation surgery and turned your perfectly fine bosom into a pair that resemble the Mount Everest. Those who don't know might think that you're in a shameful profession..."

She lashed out at Jun-yeon and scolded her with all sorts of nasty words, leaving the latter with no chance to retort at all.

"Your brother has to address me respectfully when he sees me. Who are you to think of hitting me?"

The head of department and several other female students were hiding in the corner and shivering, afraid of being implicated despite being innocent.

'Jennie's second sister-in-law is too brutal. No wonder the Kim Family has been keeping her identity a secret!'

Standing still at the side, the dumbfounded Jennie stared with eyes wide open.

Especially after hearing Y/N say "How dare you bully Jennie? Do you really think there's no one else in the Kim Family?", she felt incredibly complicated.

'I treat Y/N so harshly, but she still treats me as her family?'

'No, Y/N must be trying to impress me because I'm the daughter of the Kim Family and she wants to use me to secure her footing in the family.'

'Yes, that must be the case!'

"In the future, if you want to bully Jennie, you have to go through me first. If I find out that you've laid a finger on Jennie, I'll burn every inch of hair on your body!"

Jun-yeon's body trembled violently, and she looked at Y/N with indignation and fear.

'What a madwoman. Why would Jennie's second brother marry such a violent, brutal, uncouth, and cheap woman?'

At this moment, the door of the office was pushed open again and a young man walked in.

He was wearing a T-shirt and jeans, with a silver chain hanging around his neck, looking hip and cool.

"Brother, Brother, you're finally here! Brother, this woman actually dared to hit me. Look at these bruises, she caused them all!"

Seeing the jarring red welts on Jun-yeon's arm, Jun-ho cursed and was prepared to flare up. However, when he turned his head, he saw Y/N standing beside him.

Convulsing with fear, he almost fell onto his knees. "Sister Y/N?"

"Seems like you remember me."

Jun-ho nodded straightaway and said, "Of course I remember, of course I do. Sister Y/N, you're a beautiful heroine with a heart of gold. I must remember you."

How could he not remember her?

He was almost thrown into prison by her. It would be hard not to remember her.

He was lucky enough to have gotten away with what happened previously. All he received was a warning, but that actress was doomed.

If he had known that Y/N was that menacing and cruel, he would have never done anything to provoke her.

Widening her eyes, Jun-yeon asked, "Brother, what did you call her?"

Jun-ho glared at her and chided, "Shut up, Dad said you fought with someone. Who is it this time?"

"My sister-in-law."

Y/N suddenly interjected.

Feeling a cold chill down his spine, Jun-ho turned around to face Y/N in shock. "Your... sister-in-law? Sister Y/N, who's your sister-in-law?"

Y/N looked at Jennie who seemed furious.

'Isn't this the incompetent daughter of the Kim Family, Jennie?'

'Jennie is Y/N's sister-in-law?'

'Doesn't that make Y/N the wife of Jennie's brother?'

If there was any significant news in the upper class circle, everyone would definitely get some information, especially since the Jun Family had a high status in the circle.

He had met the wife of Jennie's eldest brother. She was a gentle, demure and dignified woman who was the complete opposite of the demoness in front of him.

'Is it true that Kai has already proposed to her?'

Thinking about how cowardly Kai was in front of Y/N, he felt that it was really possible.

He thought that Kai must have succumbed to Y/N's domineering might and was forced to marry her.

Knowing that he had gotten the wrong idea, Y/N said calmly, "Kai isn't worthy of me."

'Huh?'

After being confused for a while, he thought of Taehyung.

'Seriously?'

'Could it be him...'

"It must have been Jun-yeon who started the conflict first. Miss Kim, you and Jun-yeon have been classmates for so many years, and we're at least all in the same circle. We often see each other on a regular basis too. Why don't we just forget about this matter?"

Jennie was confused. 'Is Jun-yeon's brother apologizing to me?'

Jun-ho was much more of a playboy then Kai, and he was notorious for committing all sorts of acts of bullying...

'How is it that after seeing Y/N, he is like a different person?'

"Brother, why are you being so subservient to this shameless b*tch? The Kim Family isn't invincible and Jennie was the one who seduced the man I fancy!" Jun-yeon viciously complained, and her tone was extremely arrogant.

"My hand is itching today, maybe..."

Y/N spoke casually, but before she even finished, Jun-ho suddenly raised his hand and slapped Jun-yeon fiercely.

"Shut up and apologize to Miss Kim."

Jun-yeon covered her face with her hand and stared at Jun-ho with her eyes wide open with disbelief. "Brother, you actually hit me for an outsider? Are you afraid of Jennie's sister-in-law? Or do you want to toy with her because she's pretty?"

Jun-yeon was extremely callous with her words, and even the department head was a little repulsed and disdainful.

Jennie muttered 'b*tch' under her breath and reached out to yank Jun-yeon's hair. "Your brother isn't worthy! Jun-yeon, before you speak, take a clear look at whose family you're scolding!"

Soon, the two of them got into a scuffle.

The department head smacked his legs and said, "Ah, you two, please stop fighting. This is the school! Second Young Madam, Young Master Jun, please stop them!"

Indeed, she was Taehyung's wife...

Jun-ho had been grounded lately and hence did not know anything about the latest news of the entertainment industry. This time, he was only allowed to go out because his father had heard that Jun-yeon had caused a stir in school again.

As a result, he landed himself in trouble again.

It was a terrible situation!

'Damn it!'

'No wonder this woman is so arrogant. She's the wife of Kim Taehyung!'

"Sister Y/N, leave this to me. You..."

"No need."

Y/N hesitated as she stared at the wicker in her hand, observing her surroundings. She finally fixed her gaze on the feather duster in the painting basket.

She reached out and pointed at it. "Can I borrow the feather duster?"

The department head nodded. "Second Young Madam, you can use the things in this office as you please."

Y/N picked up the feather duster and waved it like she was performing a sword dance.

Sure enough, out of all the weapons in this world, she was the most skillful with the feather duster.

The department head and the few female students watched in puzzlement while Y/N strode towards the two girls who were in an intense fight under Jun-ho's frightened gaze.

Reaching out, she grabbed Jennie's collar and forcibly pulled her over, after which the feather duster in her hand landed on Jun-yeon.

"I warned you, if you lay a finger on Jennie, I will burn every single strand of hair on your body. Don't come out if you're blind and deaf!"

The power of the chicken feather duster was much stronger than the wicker. When the feather duster landed on Jun-yeon, she felt that she was about to die soon.

Holding her buttocks with tears in her eyes, she yelled, "Madwoman!"

In the 19 years of her life, even her parents had never beaten her. Yet, she was beaten up in such a humiliating way by Jennie's sister-in-law whom she thought was a b*tch.

Jun-yeon's chest heaved up and down and she yelled with murderous ferocity in her eyes, "Go to hell!"

She casually grabbed the scissors on the desk and rushed towards Y/N. The eyelids of those present twitched and they were all terrified.

"Hey, get out of the way!"

Jennie hurriedly spoke up, but Y/N raised her hand with the chicken feather duster and swung it at the right moment.

Smack...

The scissors fell and it was followed by Jun-yeon's screaming which rang in their ears.

The red mark was like a snake that coiled around her fair arm.

Y/N continued to wave the feather duster in her hand, hitting Jun-yeon to the point where she was scurrying around the room frantically.

"Brother, help me. Brother, hurry up and call the police. This b*tch is going to kill me, Brother!"

Jun-ho could not help but swallow his saliva. "I told you to apologize long ago, but you didn't want to listen to me. You're courting death and you want to drag me down with you too?"

'Y/N is not to be offended!'

'No one can beat a fierce shrew!'

'She managed to ruin the established Jung Brothers. Dad has so many mistresses and illegitimate children out there. I'm not trying to exaggerate, but if anything happens, Jun-yeon will definitely be the one to be abandoned!'

Not expecting her brother who would usually throw his weight around like her to say such things, Jun-yeon was anxious and infuriated.

"Jennie, I'll apologize, alright? Tell her to stop, Jennie!"

Jennie watched as Jun-yeon, who often went against her, got chased around and beaten up by Y/N.

She was thrilled!

'Turns out Y/N is so good at combat.'

"Um, you can stop. If you beat her up and cripple her, the Kim Family will have to take responsibility."

Y/N stopped as she was told, but she suddenly turned around and hit Jennie.

"Ah! Y/N you actually hit me!"

Jennie saw a clear red mark on the side of her waist which was exposed and glowered at Y/N scornfully.

"You have the cheek to call yourself a member of the Kim Family when you can't even win a fight? If you have the ability to cause trouble and get into a fight with others, you damn well have that ability to win!"

Feeling particularly embarrassed to be berated by Y/N in front of so many people, especially her arch nemesis, Jennie couldn't help but mutter softly, "You're acting like you could've won."

"When I was fighting an entire fort... an entire team alone, I at least wouldn't let myself be injured. Look at you now. Don't tell others that you know me. It's embarrassing!"

'She actually hit her own family too. Second Young Madam Kim is too scary.'

Jun-yeon, who originally still wanted to scold Y/N, immediately became speechless.

However, was she going to take this beating for nothing?

"Brother, our family is dignified and prestigious in this city. Are you really going to stand by and watch your sister being beaten by this shrew? Brother, you..."

"Shut up, all you do is get into a fight with others instead of studying hard. You even had the guts to bully Miss Kim. How bold of you."

'What...'

'Aren't you the same?'

'You were more of a bully than I am in the past!'

Jun-yeon clenched her fists and muttered furiously, "I won't just let it go like that. I'll tell Dad when I get home..."

Y/N knew when to stop appropriately and had merely hit Jennie once.

She turned around and was ready to walk towards the sofa. When the people in the room saw her moving, they pressed their backs tightly against the wall, petrified.

The department head wiped the sweat on his forehead and asked, "Um, Second Young Madam, how do I explain that you've given Jun-yeon a beating when Mr. Jun asks about it?"

'Why did the school accept these two troublemakers!?'

"I don't care how you explain. She bullied a member of my family, why can't I bully her too?"

It sounded strange, but it made sense too.

Looking at Jun-ho with squinted eyes, she said, "Jun-ho, there's no problem with me teaching Jun-yeon a lesson on your behalf, is there?"

Meeting her dangerous gaze, Jun-ho shivered, "No problem at all. Of course there's no problem. I was the one who asked you to help me discipline Jun-yeon."

Y/N nodded and looked askance at the department head. "Did you hear that?"

"Yes, yes, yes, I heard it."

"By the way, you don't have to thank me for disciplining this feisty young lady of the Jun Family on their behalf. Just don't come and disrupt my peace unnecessarily."

The people in the room were not fools, so they naturally understood what Y/N meant.

In other words, she meant that the Jun Family ought not to blow things up by settling scores with her after this matter.

Jun-ho nodded profusely and said, "Rest assured, Sister Y/N."

"Your sister doesn't seem very satisfied."

Jun-ho turned around to see that Jun-yeon was glaring at Y/N with a murderous gaze. After smacking the back of her head, he warned, "Avoid Miss Kim in the future."

Even though she was reluctant, Jun-yeon had no choice but to nod her head.

Finally satisfied, Y/N tossed the feather duster onto the sofa and said, "Jennie, come home with me."

This time, Jennie did not continue criticizing her. Instead, she obediently followed her.

Looking at the backs of the two of them leaving one after the other, Jun-yeon was full of jealousy.

'Why does Jennie have such a violent yet protective sister-in-law, while I have to fight for attention with a bunch of illegitimate children?'

When they reached the school gate, Y/N pointed to the Kim Family's car and said, "Behave yourself and head home straight."

Jennie questioned hostilely, "Where are you going?"

Y/N retorted, raising her eyebrows, "What does it have to do with you?"

"I... Do you think I don't know that you're having an ambiguous relationship with that Best Actor? Y/N, let me tell you, even though you've helped me out today, I won't let you off if I find out that you betrayed my Second Brother!"

"What can you do to me with your lousy moves? Mind your own business. I feel ashamed of you for getting beaten up so pathetically."

After saying that, she left without looking back.

Astounded, Jennie stood in place and after Y/N hopped into a cab, only then did she subconsciously look at her body.

"..."

'Atrocious, I made a fool out of myself in front of Y/N!'

'It's that wretched girl Jun-yeon's fault! Next time, I must beat you up till you start weeping!'

When Lee Dong-wook returned to the set, he saw Jimin losing his temper and throwing a fit.

He was standing in the crowd wearing a white singlet and a bald head, swaggering in front of others.

"I'm not going to shoot if Little Pepper isn't around."

If not for the fact that Jimin's face was extremely suitable for the male lead, Lee Dong-wook wouldn't work with Jimin even if the latter knelt down to beg him!

Holding his anger back, Lee Dong-wook handed the cup of iced water deferentially, "Jimin, Second Young Madam Kim was looking for Y/N, so Y/N couldn't possibly turn her down. After all, she's the investor of our film!"

"Replace her then. She's so ugly and revolting that she's ruining my appetite."

Jimin pointed at an actress who played a minor role and was sobbing at the side.

Lee Dong-wook pursed his lips and thought, 'She used to be the school belle after all. How is she ugly?'

"Jimin, it's not easy for a young girl like her to make a living in this industry. Shall we give her a chance?"

Jimin replied childishly, "She ate the reddest apple that I saved for my Little Pepper. Tell her to spit it out then."

Lee Dong-wook pinched his temples as he thought, 'How did this weirdo come about!?'

'Why do I have to flatter him and be at his beck and call!?'

'Okay, it can't be helped since he's famous.'

Y/N heard their conversation clearly and walked towards them sulkily.

"Y/N, you're finally here. Jimin refused to film without you!"

Lee Dong-wook's eyes lit up, as if he had seen his saving grace.

'Little Pepper is back!'

Jimin turned around gleefully to face Y/N. "Little Pepper, I missed you so much!"

'What?'

Everyone on the set was astonished.

Jimin's manager wished he could go over and knock him out.

'The 'Best Actor' is flirting again. What do I do?'

'Why is such a flirty and coquettish male actor liked by so many fans?'

Seeing that Y/N was ignoring him, Jimin pursed his lips and complained like a girl, "After you left me, I had been worrying about your safety. Little Pepper, you're not comforting me at all!"'

"I don't want to comfort you at all. In fact, I want to beat you up."

Y/N rolled her eyes.

Like a retard, Jimin pretended to be using a bow and arrow to shoot something at her. "It's alright. I'm suave and dashing, I'd definitely be able to win your heart!"

He then acted like he was blowing the muzzle of a gun and exclaimed, "I struck you! Little Pepper, are you shocked by my suaveness?"

"...."

Y/N smirked mirthlessly. "Silly, get lost!"

"Seems like Jimin is deeply in love with Y/N!"

The assistant shook her head.

The manager glared at him. "Is Jimin the type to genuinely like someone?"

"Doesn't seem like it."

The film was about the female lead Gyeong-ae returning home proudly with her underlings and picking up the seriously injured male lead, Sejong, on her way back to the village.

It was almost dusk, and the rays of sunset scattered through the dense forest, casting on the trail.

Y/N was making her way over from afar on a large maroon horse, with some wood stick in her mouth.

The crew was shocked to see that.

It was beautiful!

Lee Dong-wook hurriedly snapped a few photos and intended to use them as the promotional photos. "Okay, you can start filming!"

Y/N was a very talented actress. At least, she was fully immersed in the role of Gyeong-ae throughout the few scenes that she filmed.

Gyeong-ae was a bandit from a young age, beautiful yet unaware of it herself.

She was an expert in fighting, robbery, and flirting.

That was the vibe that Y/N gave off too!

"Boss, there is a monk lying there!"

Gyeong-ae spat out the wooden stick in her mouth and instructed, "Go, strip him and see if there is anything valuable on him."

Her underlings quickly turned the monk who was lying face flat on the ground over, and they were immediately greeted with a handsome face.

"Boss, it's a hunk!"

Upon hearing that it was a hunk, Gyeong-ae hurriedly jumped off her horse and clamored, "Get out of the way and let me have a closer look!"

As soon as she approached, the man lying on the ground suddenly reached out and pulled down his clothes to reveal a large part of his chest. He then placed one hand on the back of his head seductively.

All the actors and crew members were dumbfounded.

Y/N was speechless.

'What is this silly actor doing?'

After waiting for a moment and realizing that Y/N still hadn't made a move on him, Jimin abruptly opened his eyes and exclaimed, "Little Pepper, I've already posed for you, hurry up!"

'Why does Jimin seem to be waiting for me...'

'Damn it!'

Y/N stood up and kicked Jimin. "You'd better act decently. Have you ever seen such a coquettish monk?"

Jimin retorted in displeasure, "That's what the female fans like nowadays. Otherwise, why don't you ask the women present if I was very charming and handsome just now?"

Y/N clenched her fist and snapped, "It took Director Lee five years of hard work to write this script. Don't accept the offer if you don't want to act properly. Your acting skills are so lousy and yet you won the Best Actor award. Are those judges blind?"

It was true that Jimin was not a particularly excellent actor, but he wasn't as bad as she described.

After spending so many days on the set together, everyone in the team more or less understood Y/N's character.

She was a violent person, just like Gyeong-ae!

Jimin who usually liked flirting with beautiful women had never met a feisty one like her before.

"Little Pepper, don't be so fierce to me. I'll act the way you want me to."

Jimin pouted his lips like a woman.

Usually, the on-screen Jimin gave everyone the impression that he was a flirtatious and devilish hunk who was exceptionally gentle to his fans.

No one thought that he'd... be so squeamish and coquettish.

In comparison, Y/N seemed more masculine than him.

"Get on the ground and lie down properly. Later on, you are not to move no matter what I do to you. Just be a tool."

Jimin grinned and laid down on the ground sheepishly. "I don't mind being your tool. Little Pepper, my suaveness..."

"Shut up, I don't want to kill someone!"

Y/N flew into a rage, wishing she could kick him unconscious.

'How can there be such a cheap and shameless man in the world? Compared to him, Kai is simply a little angel!'

At this moment, Kai was seated on a bench at the entrance of a park, holding a beautiful woman in his arms.

"Third Young Master, is the crew of the film that Second Sister-in-law invested in still short of an actress?"

The moment the beautiful woman spoke, Kai got upset. He moved his hand away from her shoulder and snapped hostilely, "She's my second sister-in-law, not yours. Why are you addressing her that way? I'm sick of you now, you can scram!"

Upon hearing her words, the beautiful woman immediately put on an aggrieved expression and said, "Third Young Master, did I say something wrong? I'll change, alright? Third Young Master, I don't have any evil intentions. I've just always wanted to be an actress since I was a child, but I've never had the chance to..."

"Isn't it normal for ugly girls to be denied a chance to become an actress? Get lost, I don't want to see you!"

Just as she was about to speak, she met Kai's menacing gaze and had no choice but to fall silent and retreat.

'I heard that Y/N went to Jennie's school today. Jun-yeon is as shrewish as Jennie. I wonder if Y/N will be hurt.'

Kai patted his face and thought, 'How can that brutal and impressive woman get hurt?'

'But what if she gets set up?'

'After all that old fogy of the Jun Family almost set Second Brother up.'

'Yes, since Second Brother is not around, I'm obliged to protect his wife.'

At the thought of this, Kai sprung up and got into his sports car.

It was silent in the massive mansion.

Jennie sat cross-legged on the sofa with a bag of potato chips in hand, keeping her eyes peeled to the large LED TV on the wall.

A costume drama in which Y/N made a guest appearance was being played on the screen.

'When did Y/N become so incredible that even a spoiled brat of a wealthy family like Jun-ho is afraid of her?'

'Does Second Brother know about this?'

'Has that woman just been pretending to be cowardly and timid at home in the past?'

'What's her motive?'

Several thoughts were running through Jennie's mind.

She had gained a new impression of Y/N today.

Especially when Y/N hit Jun-yeon and said those words to her, she treated her as her family member...

When Kai returned home, he saw Jennie seated on the sofa with her hair tied up into a bun.

"Jennie are you trying to scare your own brother to death?"

Jennie glared at him and picked up the remote control to switch on all the lights in the living room.

"Third Brother, where's Y/N?"

"How am I supposed to know? I was just about to ask you if she had gone to your school today to beat someone up?"

Jennie raised her eyebrows and stared at Kai with some surprise. "How do you know?"

'What else would Y/N do besides fighting and berating others?'

The fact that Jennie was safe at home meant that Y/N must have shown her prowess at Jennie's school!

"Tell me, what did Y/N do?"

Tossing the bag of chips in her arms onto the couch, Jennie dashed barefooted towards Kai and complained, "Third Brother, I was hit by Y/N! Not only did that woman hit Jun-yeon, she even dared to hit me with a feather duster!"

"Y/N hit you with a feather duster?"

Kai widened his peach-blossom-shaped eyes and asked, "Are you being serious?"

Fearing that Kai would not believe her, Jennie showed him the marks on the side of her waist. "Third Brother, that woman actually beat me in front of that wretch Jun-yeon!"

At first, she thought that Kai would be enraged and immediately call Y/N to come home so that he could take revenge for her, but in the end...

"Good, you deserve the beating!"

'Seems like Y/N does not favor girls over boys. She hit Jennie for her wrongdoing too.'

He felt much more at ease.

Jennie stared at Kai in disbelief.

'Third Brother, are you out of your mind?'

Suddenly, Zhang Guoquan's voice sounded at the door.

"Second Young Madam, you're back!"

The two of them turned around in unison and saw Y/N walking in with two cups of milk tea.

She was wearing a white cheongsam that accentuated her slender figure, coupled with a pair of high heels on her feet that made a crisp sound when she stepped on the floor.

She looked extraordinarily poised and elegant. No one would have imagined how terrifying of a woman she actually was.

"Yan..." As soon as he spoke, Kai saw the dangerous gaze in Y/N's eyes and quickly corrected himself, "Second Sister-in-law."

Jennie looked at Kai with astonishment and wondered, 'Since when has Third Brother become such a coward?'

"Good boy, I'll reward you with milk tea."

Y/N smiled, which was a rare thing for her to do, and passed the milk tea to him. She then turned to look at Jennie.

Jennie stood in front of the sofa and looked at Y/N, neither servile nor overbearing.

After a long time, she finally humphed and looked away.

"Miss Kim, seems like you haven't been beaten severely enough?"

Recalling what had happened in the day, Jennie shivered and exclaimed, "Don't think I'll be grateful to you for helping me beat up Jun-yeon!"

"You are wrong. I beat her up purely because she offended me," said Y/N with a contemptuous smile. She continued, "Help you beat her? Jennie, do you think you deserve my help?"

"..."

Jennie somehow felt that she had been belittled and humiliated by Y/N.

"This time was an accident. Next time, I will definitely beat her up!"

"There's going to be a next time? Do you want me to go straight to school to collect your corpse?"

"..."

For the first time in her life, Jennie realized that she was actually so weak!

Looking at Y/N, she hesitated for a long time before saying in a hostile tone, "Hey, I'll treat you to a meal tomorrow."

"Treat me to a meal?"

Y/N was a little surprised.

Jennie turned away and said in an especially arrogant tone, "Don't think too much about it. I still hate you very much, but I'm an impartial person. You've helped me this time."

She was young but hot-tempered.

However, Y/N really didn't come back for Jennie this time.

"Kai, did the PR staff of your company all grow up eating garbage?"

Kai, who was called out of nowhere, was confused.

'What...'

'I came back specifically to see if you were bullied, and you actually called my company's staff garbage eaters?'

"Answer me."

"The PR staff of TG Entertainment were directly transferred from the headquarters of Kim Group. How can they be useless?"

Y/N picked up Kai's phone and smashed it on the ground. "I've been getting slammed frequently in the past few days, but the PR staff did not do anything. If they're a bunch of wastrels who won't work, they should get lost!"

Today, she made it to the hot search list again because of Jimin, though she was at the bottom of the list.

The hot search was about her landing herself the role of the female lead through underhanded means and pulling connections with a rich investor. They even accused her of trying to seduce Jimin.

'Damn it, who was the one who was doing the seduction?'

'Why would I be attracted to that fool?'

When they were wrapping up, Lee Dong-wook came to ask her why the PR staff of TG Entertainment hadn't come forth to help her clarify and deny the scandalous rumors the past few times.

It was only then that Y/N realized that there was something known as public relations.

Kai looked at his newly purchased cellphone that had been smashed onto the ground, feeling an immense heartache. He thought, 'If you're angry, smash your own cell phone instead!'

'Why did you smash mine?'

"Go out and tell those wastrels that I'll break their legs before kicking them out if they're still going to do nothing about this!"

She then turned around and headed upstairs without looking back.

Kai froze in place.

Jennie frowned as she watched Y/N's back disappear from sight. She then said, "Third Brother, I remember you called the head of the PR department before."

Bewilderment was written all over Kai's face. "Huh?"

"You told them to ignore all rumors and scandals that Y/N is involved in."

Kai's handsome face grew sullen.

'Damn it!'

'Was there something wrong with my brain then!?'

Jennie sincerely wanted to treat Y/N to a meal this time, but mainly, she wanted to test her and find out what else she was hiding.

'How could a detestable woman, who had always been obedient, timid, and mild-mannered since she was a child, suddenly change so drastically in a short while?'

'This doesn't make sense at all!'

The only explanation was that Y/N was too good at acting and had hidden it from everyone.

After going to the beauty salon to have a spa treatment and meeting some other wealthy heiresses to splurge during a shopping spree at the mall, Jennie slowly walked back to the mall. There was less than half an hour left before the appointment time.

Walking alone in the spacious underground parking lot that was rather empty, Jennie felt a chill down her spine.

As soon as she reached her car and was about to open the door, a hand was pressed against her mouth.

A thought popped up in her mind at the very last moment before she lost consciousness.

'Once Y/N finds out who the kidnapper is, they must die!'

When Y/N arrived at the restaurant that Jennie had made a reservation in, Kai was already seated obediently and waiting for them.

"Are you alone?"

"Women are just troublesome. Jennie went to the beauty salon."

Y/N nodded, pulled out a chair, and sat down. "She's brainless. No matter how pretty she makes herself look, she's still a dimwit."

Kai fell silent, somehow feeling a little attacked.

After all, he had achieved a terrible score of 59.5 for Language when he was in school.

'Ah, how infuriating!'

"Call her. I'm very busy and I don't have much time to spare."

Y/N ordered with one leg crossed over the other in a roguish manner.

Kai dared not procrastinate. Without delay, he immediately whipped out his cell phone to call Jennie.

The phone rang for a long time...

"No one is answering."

"Keep calling then."

Kai proceeded to make several calls but no one answered. The last time Kai called, the cellphone was shut off.

"What is Jennie getting up to? She suddenly switched off her phone."

'Switched off?'

Y/N took out his own cell phone and said, "Call her using my cellphone."

'Did that wretched lass block my number?'

That was the first thing that came to Kai's mind. He carefully grabbed Y/N's cell phone and dialed the numbers gently, for fear that he would be beaten up again if he damaged her cell phone.

A few minutes passed...

Kai returned the cell phone to Y/N awkwardly. "It's still switched off. Um, Jennie may have bumped into her silly friends. That's just what she's like. Why don't we..."

"Call the police."

Y/N suddenly said.

Kai blinked. "What?"

"I said, call the police."

"No, are you thinking that Jennie has gotten into a mishap? She's quite a fighter and she's the daughter of the Kim Family. She..." At this point, Kai widened his eyes and said, "Could she have attempted suicide?"

'Has she decided to kill herself because she embarrassed herself in front of Y/N?'

'My dear sister, I've suffered the same thing, but I didn't think of suicide!'

Y/N frowned and barked, "I repeat for the very last time, call the police immediately, now!"

Not daring to ask any further, Kai immediately called the police to report that Jennie had gone missing.

Upon hearing that she was the daughter of the Kim Family, the police immediately took action.

"Yan... Second Sister-in-law, are you thinking of getting the police to bring Jennie over? In fact, it is not necessary, I can do that."

Y/N straightened out the hem of her skirt and stood up. "Help me apply for a leave of absence with the filming crew. Does Jennie have any traceable items with her?"

"Her cellphone!"

'How simple.'

Kai was about to check the location of Jennie's cellphone address when Y/N suddenly kicked him in his leg.

"Ouch! Why did you kick me?"

Expecting better from him, Y/N chastised, "I told you to call the police. What are you tracking her phone for? I'm asking you if there's any other device of hers that can be tracked?"

'Damn it!'

'Y/N, I'm going to fight you...'

'Forget it.'

"I don't know."

Kai humphed coldly.

Y/N raised her eyebrows and looked askance at him with a squint. "Repeat yourself."

Kai shivered and said, "Oh yes, there is. She once got lost when she was a child, so there's an additional tracking device in all of her watches."

"Check."

Y/N had a gloomy gaze. 'I've yet to deal with the Jun Family, but they've sent themselves here, huh?'

It was hard not to associate the fact that Jennie suddenly became uncontactable with Jun-yeon because of what happened yesterday.

In the van, a ferocious-looking man was holding onto the steering wheel steadily and a tall and burly man was seated in the passenger seat beside him. He was smiling sheepishly with his cell phone in hand. "Miss Jun, we've already kidnapped her. The money..."

After Jun-yeon said something, the man wiped the saliva at the corner of his mouth and said, "No problem. We haven't tried tender-skinned college girls like her..."

Jennie felt extremely dizzy and she could clearly feel that her hands and feet had been tied up. The ride was jerky and the unpleasant stench of gasoline permeated her nostrils.

She seemed... to have been kidnapped.

Realizing this, she suddenly snapped out of her daze. She could hear the stranger's voice in her ear.

"This girl seems to be dressed in expensive clothes and her skin is in good condition too. Is she really from an ordinary family?"

"Definitely. If she's from a wealthy family, Miss Jun wouldn't get us to kidnap her, right? Since we took the money, we have to do the job. After this, we'll go to another city."

"This chick's skin, tsk... It's so tender and supple. Let's have some fun tonight. We won't get an opportunity like this again if we miss it."

Jennie listened clearly to their conversation and became even more nervous.

She had really been kidnapped!

'Who else can Miss Jun be except that vicious bitch Jun-yeon?'

'If I can escape alive, I must chop Jun-yeon up!'

'But can I really make it out alive?'

'Those two lecherous men actually want to violate and defile me!'

'What do I do!?'

'What do I do now!?'

Jennie was so scared at the moment that teardrops were rolling down her cheeks continuously.

...

Y/N was sitting on the passenger seat beside Kai who was talking to the police.

When he hung up the phone, Y/N finally asked, "How is it?"

"The surveillance camera footage of the beauty salon showed that she seems to have been taken away in a van."

Kai was rather solemn, which was a rare sight.

"I'm asking you, how's the progress in tracking Jennie's location!?"

Y/N ordered sternly.

Kai shivered and couldn't help but swallow his saliva. "She's near an abandoned factory in the suburbs in the west."

"Drive."

Kai asked in surprise, "Are you not going to wait for the police?"

"What's there to wait? Until the cow comes home? I'll give you half an hour. If we can't reach the destination, I'll castrate you with chemicals!"

Kai subconsciously put his legs together. "We should at least stay with the Kim Family's escort team. This is obviously a kidnap. Who knows how many people they have?"

"I wasn't afraid to take on ten people at once in the past. Why would I be afraid of a few cowards in your modern era?"

'Your modern era?'

'You're making it sound like you're not from the modern era!'

"Cut the crap and drive. Do you dare believe that I'll poke my finger through your head?"

'This brutal woman Y/N!'

Kai gritted his teeth and started the car aggrievedly.

He was just afraid that Y/N wouldn't be able to handle it, and then all three of them would be kidnapped!

Jennie was carried out of the car and when the blindfold was removed, she finally realized that she had been brought to an abandoned warehouse.

The two men in front of her were fierce, and their wolf-like gazes gave her goosebumps as they gawked at her.

Jennie asked in a shaky voice, "Don't try anything funny. If you let me off, I can give you a lot of money. I'm the daughter of the Kim Family. You know about the Kim Family, don't you?"

The two looked at each other.

"She said she is the daughter of the Kim family. Is that true?"

"Jun-yeon is not a fool. Would the Jun Family dare to offend the Kim Family? I heard that the three scions of the Kim Family are not easy to deal with."

The fat man looked at Jennie and asked, "So what if she really is the Kim Family's daughter? We've already gotten the money. Who will know if we run away after toying with her?"

"That's right."

The two of them removed their clothes quickly and they turned on the video recording function of their cell phone before placing it in a certain spot. They then walked towards Jennie with a lewd smile.

Jennie continuously moved towards the corner of the wall and exclaimed with tears in her reddened eyes, "I'm really the daughter of the Kim Family, as long as you let me off, I can give you as much money as you want!"

"We haven't toyed with tender girls like you. If you serve us well, we will naturally spare your life."

"That's right, as long as you don't say anything, who will know you've been defiled?"

"If you are obedient and cooperate with us, we can spare you from physical torment. Otherwise... there will have to be some suffering," said the fat man as he twisted her wrist.

Jennie glared at him angrily and hollered, "Dream on! If you have what it takes, kill me. If I get the opportunity to escape, you will regret being born in this world!"

"Wow, you've got quite a hot temper."

"Strip her!"

A rough and dark hand slowly reached out to Jennie, and soon, it landed on her shoulder.

With the sound of fabric ripping, the fine fabric of her clothes were torn, revealing the nude-colored strap of her bra.

Jennie turned pale and she looked at the both of them in horror. "Please, I'm begging you, don't be like this. You can have as much money as you want, just let me off!"

"We want both the money and you. Let us enjoy ourselves and we'll let you leave later."

The man forcibly picked her up and tossed her onto the tattered sofa. As the tall figure loomed over her, Jennie bit her tongue and stared at the people in front of her as if she was ready to die.

If these two people really dared to violate her...

She would immediately bite her tongue to kill herself.

"Chick, your skin is so tender..."

Jennie trembled incessantly as she glared at the two of them with reddened eyes. At this moment, she was in incomparable despair.

She didn't expect to die here after being a tyrant for 19 years.

'What do I do? I'm so indignant...'

She closed her eyes and her hands were tightly clenched.

Just as the last piece of clothing on her body was about to be ripped away, the closed door of the warehouse was suddenly pushed open.

A blinding light shot in from outside the door.

"How dare you touch the person I protect? I must beat you up badly today!"

Jennie heard two shrilling cries.

She subconsciously opened her eyes and saw Y/N beating up those two men with a bare wooden stick.

"Security in society is bad because of scumbags like you who are a waste of space. I might as well kill you now."

When she hit them with the stick, the sound of flesh being cut open immediately sounded.

"Hey! Where did this crazy woman come from?"

"Stop it, stop it."

Y/N's delicate face was sullen, and she was wielding the stick skillfully. Clearly, she was experienced.

"Where is that little b*tch Jun-yeon? Get her to come out and fight with me. Damn it, do you really think I'm spouting nonsense? Jennie, count how many strands of hair you have lost."

Jennie looked at Y/N in shock before looking over at the two men whom she had beaten up and were rolling all over the ground.

She burst into tears again and tried her best to calm down at this moment. She said aggrievedly in a hoarse voice, "So many strands of my hair dropped. I'm almost bald!"

Y/N suddenly stopped, glanced at Jennie whose clothes were unkempt, and then tossed the carpet of Kai's car towards her.

"Drape it over yourself." She then barked at the door, "Kai, you can get your ass here now."

Kai immediately appeared in the warehouse and walked straight towards Jennie.

Seeing her in a disheveled state, he furrowed his thick eyebrows and said, "Yan... Second Sister-in-law was right, you're a dimwit. How did you get kidnapped?"

???

'Third Brother, I'm your sister!'

'Shouldn't you comfort me?'

Y/N was done beating them up too. She turned on the video recording function and pointed her cell phone camera at the two of them. "Call Jun-yeon now."

Indeed, after being beaten up brutally, they became cowards.

"Yeah, Miss Jun is the one who instigated us. Miss Jun said that that woman snatched her boyfriend. We were just paid to do the job!"

"Shut up, I told you to call Jun-yeon. If you yell again, I will tear your mouth apart immediately!"

"Please don't hit me, I'll call her immediately right away."

The fat man picked up the phone with trembling hands.

"Just say that the matter has been settled. Make sure to coerce Jun-yeon into admitting what she had done."

"Yes, yes, yes, I definitely won't spout any nonsense."

The two of them were badly bruised but their faces were intact.

Y/N stepped on the chair and placed the rod on her shoulder. "Hurry up."

The call got through quickly and Jun-yeon asked anxiously, "How is it?"

"It's been taken care of."

"Where's that b*tch Jennie?"

When she heard Jun-yeon scolding her, Jennie opened her mouth and was ready to yell at her, but Y/N glared at her.

Kai consciously covered Jennie's mouth.

"She..." The man looked at Y/N and continued, "She has fainted... We used some method to knock her out, lest she woke up and spoiled the fun. "

Jun-yeon sighed with relief. "Very good, where is the video? Send it to me."

"Um... our phone ran out of battery all of a sudden while filming. I have to go home and charge it."

Jun-yeon exclaimed in a sharper voice, "It's out of battery? Did you get the video then? I'm telling you, if you mess up, don't think of getting a single cent!"

'Damn it, I won't be able to get the money even if I didn't mess up.'

Glancing at the ferocious Y/N from the corner of his eye, he answered, "Yes, yes, it ran out of battery when we were taking the video."

"Okay, throw that woman onto the streets. I want to see the video within an hour."

Jun-yeon hung up immediately after saying that.

"Since you've hit us, will you let us off now? We..."

"Let you off? Don't you know that I'm an outstanding citizen who just wants to get rid of evil for the public?"

The two of them were still thinking about what Y/N meant, but several police officers had already rushed towards them.

Y/N kept her back straight and said, "Okay. I've already caught the criminal. It's up to you to decide how to handle them."

The police officer who was in charge smiled and looked at Y/N with some surprise. "Miss, may I ask if you are..."

"Jennie's second sister-in-law."

'Second Sister-in-law?'

'Wouldn't that be?'

"Take Jennie along, let's leave."

Y/N ignored the police officers and shot Kai a glance.

Suddenly reminded of something after leaving, she turned around and added, "By the way, you don't have to thank me for nabbing the crooks. You can just send me a certificate of appreciation and write 'Enthusiastic Citizen Ms. Y/N' on it."

Enthusiastic Citizen Ms. Y/N?

The few police officers subconsciously looked at the two men on the ground who were in disarray.

'She's... quite kind and enthusiastic...'

Y/N did not continue making any vicious remarks and instead instructed Kai to send Jennie home, as well as hire a psychiatrist.

Staring at Y/N's extraordinarily pretty face, Kai asked, "What about you?"

"I'm going to see the Jun Family."

The Jun Family?

'Is she planning to take revenge for Jennie?'

Kai was feeling a little sour. 'Does it feel great to be protected by Y/N?'

After glaring at the troublemaker Jennie, he said to Y/N, "I'll accompany you. Jun-ho's father is not to be trifled with."

Y/N asked with raised brows, "Do I seem like I'm to be trifled with?"

"..."

'You've got 100,000 volts of energy!'

"Ahem, the Jun Family's residence is quite far from the Kim Family's estate. You might not be able to go in on your own. I'll send you there. At least, it'll bring you some glory."

Y/N considered it for a while before nodding in agreement. "Okay, but we'll send Jennie home first."

Squeezing the blanket tightly, Jennie said, "I'll tag along."

"What for?" Kai questioned with displeasure. "Go home and reflect on yourself. As the Kim Family's daughter, why are you so weak?"

'Well, I'm a girl too!'

Jennie glanced at Jennie and asked in a mellow tone, "Can I... tag along?"

Y/N nodded. "Of course you can. Since we are going to seek revenge, we should go together as a family."

'A family...'

Both Kai and Jennie were equally surprised. It was not the first time they heard Y/N saying that.

They clearly disliked her and ostracized her, but she still treated them like family...

In fact...

In fact, Y/N was not too bad. She was beautiful and a good fighter too.

Jennie looked away and coughed awkwardly. "Um... thank you."

Y/N glanced at her and said, "We can talk after the fight."

After taking Jennie to get changed, Y/N finally brought the pair of siblings to the Jun Family's mansion to settle some scores.

In the Jun Family's mansion, Jun-yeon was seated on the couch while gripping her cell phone tightly and grinning non-stop.

"Jun-yeon, what's the joyous occasion? Why are you so happy?"

Jun Hongwei closed the magazine and asked in a deep voice.

"Father, now that the Kim Family's second son is not in town, isn't it just the right time for us to take advantage of the opportunity to snatch some of their business?"

Jun-yeon would usually do nothing but go on shopping sprees, splurging her money to show off her wealth. Whenever he told her to gain more knowledge, she would act like she was getting killed. What was going on today?

Why did she suddenly show concern for the family's business?

"It's not that easy to snatch the Kim Family's business."

Taehyung was known to be ruthless.

He was even more terrifying than Hades.

"Although I've never seen that legendary Taehyung, I've met Kai and his incompetent sister! No matter how invincible Taehyung is, he can't handle his business in both nations. Why don't we..."

Jun-yeon paused and said, "Heng-yuan Real Estate is the Jun Family's main business, but other than that, we also have other side businesses. Some of the Kim Family's business resources would be very useful to us, wouldn't they?"

At this juncture, Jun-yeon smiled sinisterly and said, "Father, we can have a negotiation with the Kim Family. I'm confident of encroaching on the Kim Family's business resources and taking their shares of the market."

Everyone in the upper class circle cared about their pride.

The richer they were and the higher their status, the more they cared about their reputation.

If the unsightly and obscene video of the Kim Family's daughter were to be leaked...

"Jun-yeon, tell me honestly, did you do something?"

"Father, don't you always teach me and my brother that there are times when we can resort to all means, as long as we end up being the one to benefit? I only resorted to some tricks that will benefit our family. Father, you will forgive me, right?"

Jun Hongwei was just about to say something when he heard an arrogant and domineering female voice sounding from the gate.

"Jun-yeon, get your ass out here. I'm here to settle scores with you!"

A look of dismay formed on Jun-yeon's face. She subconsciously looked over, only to see Y/N striding over aggressively with a broom.

Kai and Jennie were following behind her.

'Why would Jennie suddenly appear?'

An ominous feeling arose in her heart, but Jun Hongwei reacted quickly. He frowned and barked, "Who are you? How dare you barge into our home?"

"I'm your ancestor! Old fogy, get out of the way. I must skin Jun-yeon alive today!"

She waved her hand to push Jun Hongwei away. She then aimed the broom at Jun-yeon's back.

"Ah!"

The sharp pain was so intense that Jun-yeon was on the verge of tears. Glaring at Y/N ferociously, she exclaimed, "How dare you come to the Jun Family's residence to hit me? I'm calling the police!"

"Call the police? If you're so cocky, why did you get two scoundrels to defile Jennie? If you have what it takes, do it yourself! If you're so capable, why don't you insult Jennie yourself? If you don't have any tools, you can use your hands!"

'Is this even humane at all?'

Jennie looked embarrassed as she felt that she had been insulted again.

Jun-yeon didn't expect to hear such brazen and uncouth words from Y/N.

'Is this really the Second Young Madam of the Kim Family?'

'How could the daughter-in-law of a rich family be so vulgar and boorish?'

Jun Hongwei first called his bodyguard and looked at Y/N furiously. "The Jun Family will settle this. Woman, I will put you behind bars for barging into my home and beating my daughter."

Once Y/N was angry, she would be irritated by everyone. Hearing his words, she began to spit her saliva onto Jun Hongwei's shoes.

Jun Hongwei clenched his fist and threatened, "You want to die?"

"Screw you, you're so old and you can't even take your daughter in hand. Sure, go ahead and call the police to put me behind bars! I'd like to see who gets justice in court."

Like a shrew, Y/N gripped the broom and waved it to smash all the ornaments on display in the house.

Clang...

The expensive porcelain ornaments were instantly shattered into pieces.

Exasperated and anxious, Jun Hongwei cursed the bodyguards in his head, 'A bunch of useless good-for-nothings! Why aren't they here yet?'

"Kai, who is this woman? I think you have to give me an explanation."

He squinted and looked at Kai with animosity, trying to exert pressure on him.

Kai didn't even bother to pay attention to him. He simply egged her on, "Smash them as hard as you can! There's a flower pot over there too. It costs more than a million won!"

Y/N was really about to smash the flower pot. Jun Hongwei's eyelids twitched and he questioned, "Lady, are you really not afraid to offend the Jun Family?"

"The Jun Family is nothing. Who are you? You're nothing too."

Y/N smiled with contempt.

Jun Hongwei's face became increasingly tempestuous and he secretly vowed that he would make this ignorant woman bear the consequences.

"I'm the chairman of Heng-yuan Real Estate and the head of the Jun Family."

Pretending to be surprised, Y/N exclaimed, "Turns out you're that money-minded and vicious scum who would scheme against his own friends too. I don't care how disgusting you personally are, but since your stupid daughter has the audacity to kidnap my sister-in-law today, I'll make sure she kneels before us and admits to her wrongdoing. Otherwise, I'll be sure to hit you too!"

'Did this woman say that Jun-yeon kidnapped Jennie?'

'Wait, Sister-in-law?'

'I've met the Young Madam of the Kim Family, so this woman...'

'Could the rumors be true? Is Taehyung really married?'

"What is your relationship with Taehyung?"

Y/N retorted sneeringly, "A scum like you is not fit to call my husband's name. You're so useless, you're not even fit to carry my husband's shoes. Now, let's settle the scores between your daughter and my sister-in-law!"

Indeed, it was just as he thought.

Jun Hongwei's gaze dimmed.

At this moment, Kai despised Y/N's words greatly.

'You keep mentioning that he's your husband. Others might just think that you're in a loving relationship with my second brother!'

'Pst, you're just riding the wave of my brother's authority.'

'Second Brother can't stand seeing you at all, he even dislikes how boorish you are!'

"Lady..."

"Call me Second Young Madam. You've been in the upper class society for so many years. Doesn't the Jun Family have any basic etiquette?"

Gritting his teeth, Jun Hongwei continued, "Second Young Madam, what's your reason for claiming that Jun-yeon kidnapped Miss Kim? Where is the evidence?"

Y/N glanced at Jun-yeon who began trembling continuously.

"Why would I show up at your place if I didn't have any evidence?"

Y/N played the voice recording of the conversation between the two kidnappers.
