'A billion... That mountain is worth more than a billion?'

'It'd take me ages to earn that much money and I won't have enough even after getting paid for being a Female Fortress leader! I even...'

Y/N abruptly turned her head to glare at Taehyung, her gaze full of murderous aura.

'This jerk, I'll definitely kick you away once I regain my glory! Even Kai and Jin are cuter than you!'

When she returned home at night, she was surprised to find that both Kai and Jennie were not at home.

"Go to bed, Darling, I still have some work to do."

Jennie had been abnormally obedient at school lately and even her teachers were touched by her obedience.

Seeing how enthusiastic Y/N was about helping others, Jennie felt that she could not fall behind. As soon as class ended and she received the news about Taehyung going home, Jennie packed up quickly. She was more than twice as fast as she normally was.

"Jennie, since we got off class early today, our classmates are planning to go for a meal together, do you want to come along?"

Jennie had been rather mellow and amicable lately, thus many of her classmates would take the initiative to talk to her and ask her out.

Looking at the student counsellor at the side and her classmates who were all staring at her, Jennie resolutely declined.

She thought that Y/N would come home together with Taehyung and if she didn't go home earlier, Kai would definitely slander her in front of them!

"I'll pass. You guys go ahead, it'll be my treat."

Jennie patted her chest generously.

"That doesn't seem appropriate, you're not going..." "It's alright, just order under my name," Jennie said as she took out a membership card of a certain restaurant.

The student counsellor took the card and looked at the name of the restaurant on the card, only to be stunned.

It was a famous restaurant in the city and since there were so many of them, the meal would definitely cost at least tens of thousands of yuan!

"No, this place is too expensive, we'll go have barbecued meat or something..."

Just as the student counsellor was about to hand the card back to Jennie, she suddenly said sternly, "It'd be such a joke if I can't afford to treat you guys to a meal. Just go ahead, I have to get going now."

As she spoke, she picked up her bag and slung it on her shoulder before leaving suavely.

Her back view resembled that of Y/N when she was leaving after a fight.

When she passed by the ladies' bathroom, she heard the sounds of a girl shrieking, followed by the contemptuous laughter of a few other girls.

She knew clearly what they were doing in the washroom.

She had encountered such incidences before and the victim had even asked her for help but she simply ignored them.

But now...

Y/N's face suddenly appeared in her head.

'If Second Sister-in-law was here, she'd definitely beat them up into a pulp, right? I should earn the reward banner of being a helpful person, and show it to Second Sister-in-law!' Jennie clenched her fists and placed her school bag in a corner of the walls before taking a big step forward to kick the door of the bathroom open.

There was chaos in the bathroom.

There was a girl with an unkempt appearance huddled up in the corner, her clothes all tattered and torn, revealing her black undergarment. The four or five girls standing around her were obviously ignoramus gangsters. One of them was even taking photos of the victim with her cell phone camera.

Perhaps because they didn't expect Jennie to suddenly appear, they were all stunned.

"Aren't you people afraid of being expelled for bullying someone in school?" The girl who was taking the photos immediately shoved her cell phone into her pocket and said with a cigarette in her mouth, "Hey, aren't you Miss Kim?"

'Back Jennie up?'

Taehyung was bewildered.

Y/N glanced at him and said, "She got into a fight with someone at school."

"Yes."

She wasn't surprised to see the calm expression on Taehyung's face.

Jennie had been standing anxiously in the corner ever since she learned that the head-of-faculty had informed Y/N of the fight.

Her hair was messy and one of the buttons on her jacket had been removed too.

This time, she was careless to have let herself be alone while Jun-yeon had several people on her side.

If she did not have some skills in martial arts, her outcome would have been worse.

However, she was doing a kind act of helping others this time! It was said that Jun-yeon had bullied that girl this time because of a boy she fancied too.

That boy was Jun-yeon's new crush, and the girl who was beaten up happened to be the boy's tablemate.

"I've notified your family members. Jennie, Jun-yeon, this is one of the most prestigious educational institutions in our country, and you two are going to tarnish our reputation!"

The head-of-faculty turned pale.

"You especially, Jennie. Haven't you been behaving yourself lately? Your second sister-in-law is so busy everyday but she still has to clean up the mess that you create. Aren't you scared?"

He could still remember the scene where Y/N got physical in the school office the previous time.

She was really aggressive and the mere thought of it made him feel scared.

Jennie shuddered and even Jun-yeon couldn't help but be terrified.

Jun-yeon thought, 'Oh gosh, I was too preoccupied with wanting to take revenge on Jennie but I completely forgot that she has an incredible sister-in-law.'

Jennie had already cursed the head-of-faculty thoroughly in her heart.

'This old man can't tell right from wrong. He obviously knows I'm scared but he still proceeded with contacting Second Sister-in-law. He could have called Kai too! Is it wrong to help others?'

"Jennie, is this all you are capable of?"

She heard Y/N's voice before she even saw her.

Jennie shivered and the first thing she did was to check if there was a feather duster in the room.

"Jennie, I'm asking you a question!"

The head-of-faculty's eyelids twitched, for fear that Y/N would get physical in the office again. He said, "Jennie is still young so she's inevitably capricious. She had good intentions this time, Second Young Madam Kim, please don't get angry!"

Y/N did not find any feather duster in the room and she casually picked up the newspaper on the desk before rolling it up. "Jennie, are you deaf?"

Jennie said in a shaky voice, "Second Sister-in-law, I'm here."

Y/N turned around and only then did she see Jennie who was now between the bookshelf and the wall.

She furrowed her beautiful brows and said murderously, "Is that all you're capable of? What are you doing hiding there?"

'I'm scared of being hit by you!' Jennie was wailing in her head.

Y/N smacked the newspaper against the table and said, "Come over."

"Second Sister-in-law, it's really not my fault this time. Jun-yeon and her gang have really gone overboard..."

Jun-yeon was really terrified of Y/N and when she saw how aggressive she was, she was so stunned that she dared not make a single sound.

"Look at the way you're behaving. Show your prowess and dominance as the heiress of the Kim Family! Jun-yeon is just an illegitimate daughter, she can't compare to you at all!"

Being poked in her sore spot, Jun-yeon immediately sulked.

Jennie thought, 'Second Sister-in-law...'

"This girl is so unruly." Y/N walked towards the girl next to Jun-yeon.

She raised her arm and swung it aggressively, smacking the girl with the rolled-up newspaper in her hand.

The newspaper didn't actually cause her much pain but the sound was frightening.

The female student was trembling profusely.

"Jennie, how many times do I have to teach you this? Next time, don't yank your opponent's hair in a fight. Did you forget the spots and body parts that I told you to attack?"

Jennie looked at Y/N pitifully and said sobbingly, "Second Sister-in-law, I forgot about it."

Y/N waved her hand and looked at Jun-yeon again. "Do you not understand simple instructions? Must you make me beat you up again?"

Jun-yeon was immediately enraged to have been accused like that.

Seeing that she was glaring at her, Y/N continued to rebuke, "What are you glaring at? You're from a rich family after all, why are you behaving like a gangster? You're so evil and malicious."

"Jennie, tell us clearly, what is going on?

Feeling extremely aggrieved, Jennie said, "Second Sister-in-law, I turned down my classmates' invitation to lunch today because..."

"Get to the point," Y/N interrupted without mercy.

Jennie panicked. 'I'm talking about the main point!'

She continued, "When I was going home, I passed by the ladies' bathroom and heard the sounds of crying coming from inside. Second Sister-in-law, I know that you like helping others and since I'm your sister-in-law, of course I have to follow your example and save those who are in need. So, I dashed into the washroom and discovered that Jun-yeon and her gang almost stripped this poor girl naked!"

At this point, Jennie rubbed the tears in the corner of her eyes.

Everyone thought she teared up because she was sympathetic to the girl who had been bullied but Jennie knew very well that it was because she was intimidated by Y/N.

"That girl is so pitiful, her body is covered in wounds and she's now being treated in the health room. I just wanted to help that girl but Jun-yeon ganged up with her friends to bully me!"

Y/N first glared at Jennie in disappointment before raising the rolled up newspaper and hitting Jun-yeon with it.

The loud sound of the newspaper made the people present tremble.

Jun-yeon was a little afraid of Y/N. After all, she had terrifyingly powerful combat skills.

Suddenly, the office door was pushed open and Jun-ho arrived in a dramatic way.

'Why is this scene somewhat similar to the last time?'

The head of faculty pushed his glasses up his nose and had already prepared an escape plan.

Previously, when Y/N and Jun-ho appeared together, they created a huge commotion.

"Brother, I..."

As soon as she saw Jun-ho, Jun-yeon's eyes lit up and while feeling particularly aggrieved, she pounced onto Jun-ho and was ready to give him a hug.

Jun-ho avoided her with a straight face before slapping her on her face.

"I told you not to provoke Second Young Madam Kim and Miss Kim, are you deaf?"

'Damn it, I painstakingly managed to catch Sister Y/N's attention and get into her good books but now it's ruined. Ugh! Atrocious!'

Jun-ho immediately turned around and said subserviently to Y/N, "Hehe, Sister Y/N, I don't know Jun-yeon well, you can punish her as you please!"

"Brother!" Jun-yeon yelled indignantly.

'I'm Jun-ho's sister, what does he mean by this? Why is he siding with outsiders?'

Jun-ho immediately berated her hostilely, "All you do is get into fights all day long! You even had the guts to bully Sister Y/N's family member! Didn't you learn your lesson last time? Are you starting to defy me?"

Jun-yeon gritted her teeth.

'Jennie's sister-in-law is really something, she even managed to subdue my brother who gets up to malicious acts all the time.'

Nowadays, school bullies would be boycotted.

As a bully, Jun-yeon was supposed to be bullied but she was spared on Jun-ho's account.

However, her family had to compensate the victim with a large sum of money.

The Jun family also had to pay for all of the victim's medical expenses and future psychiatric treatment.

Jennie followed Y/N out of the office, still feeling gleeful and lofty.

'Second Sister-in-law didn't hit me and even came to back me up! It is indeed a good thing to help others!'

Jennie followed behind Y/N sheepishly.

"Second Sister-in-law, I stayed at Anna's place last night, and I really didn't create trouble today, it was Jun-yeon who went too far. Second Sister-in-law, you didn't see how badly that girl was bullied."

"I know."

She was not an unreasonable person, and indeed Jennie was not at fault for what happened this time.

However...

'She's been my sister-in-law for so long, why hasn't she progressed at all? Doesn't she know that if she can't beat her, she could have just called the police?'

Y/N walked towards the black car at the entrance of the school, pulled open the door of the backseat, and got inside.

Jennie thought about it and decisively chose to sit in the passenger's seat.

As soon as she sat down and was about to turn around and complain to Y/N about Jun-yeon, she saw Taehyung who was seated behind.

Jennie shivered and exclaimed in shock, "Second Brother, what are you doing here!?!"

Taehyung was reading a document and after hearing what she said, he glanced at Jennie nonchalantly, "This is my car.

"..."

'How did I forget to look at the license plate number just now? Second Sister-in-law alone is enough to keep me on tenterhooks and now I have to face Second Brother too...'

She started sobbing...

'Is it too late to jump out of the car?'

"Second Brother, are you done with handling your business overseas? I heard Uncle Zhang say that you'll be back only after the new year, why have you come home so many days in advance?"

Jennie asked the obvious.

"Why? Can't I come home?"

Jennie shook her head vigorously and answered, "Of course you can! The person who is the happiest about your return is definitely Second Sister-in-law!"

Y/N raised her eyebrows and glanced at Jennie. 'What does it have to do with me?'

"I heard that the school called our family up because you were being helpful."

Taehyung placed one hand over the other on his knees and questioned in a low voice.

"I just simply couldn't stand seeing Jun-yeon bullying someone. Second Brother I was really saving the victim, I swear! I've turned over a new leaf!"

Taehyung had never paid too much attention to Jennie's academic problems.

It could be said that he habitually made it a point to complete his own responsibilities and didn't show any concern for his family's affairs.

He was the CEO of the Kim Group, and although he was Jin's younger brother, he had more authority than him.

Taehyung and Jin rarely went home while Kai and Jennie stayed in Seoul all year round.

'When did I start paying so much attention to my family?'

Taehyung looked to the side and saw Y/N.

'Am I just curious about her behavior and demeanor ever since the first time I heard rumors about her? Or is it because Kai and Jennie talk about her all the time?'

Y/N did not know what Taehyung was thinking about at this point. Her main concern was that Jennie was really too weak.

She was initially planning to recruit Jennie as a member of Black Cloud Fortress in the future and earn some money...

Y/N was a little hesitant now.

As soon as the car pulled over, Kai strutted out of the house, clad in slippers and biting onto an apple.

"I heard that the school has called us up because of Jennie again! Second Brother, you have to discipline her, this is the second time this has happened!"

'You dog, Third Brother, you're smearing me again! Second Sister-in-law just gave me a bag of potato chips that day, what's the big deal?'

"Second Brother, Third Brother has been getting involved with women out there and he knocked someone up. That woman got angry at Second Sister-in-law because Third Brother refused to acknowledge the baby she's carrying and Second Sister-in-law got into deep trouble because of her. Second Brother, you must teach him a lesson!"

Kai nearly jumped to his feet and he retorted, "Nonsense! I was maligned and that woman was purely out to cheat me!"

"How can anyone try to con you if you didn't go out and mess around?"

"Jennie, are you itching for a beating?"

Y/N rubbed her ears and asked, "Why are the Kim's such oddballs?"

"Darling, since you've married me, you have to take my last name, so that makes you a Kim too."

Y/N was puzzled but she retorted, "I'll keep my last name, you can take mine, though. Mr. Kim, if you can't accept it, we can get divorce at any time."

After saying that, she strode towards the villa.

'Won't take my last name?'

Taehyung raised his thick eyebrows.

Kai stopped arguing with Jennie too. 'Actually, given Second Sister-in-law's capability, Second Brother can be the submissive one.'

The filming of "The Tumultuous Harem" had already progressed far.

In fact, the main thing was that Empress Heo, who was played by Y/N, was finally going to poison Concubine Rong to death.

Concubine Rong was played by Dia.

Y/N arrived at the set bright early in the morning.

She heard that a famous celebrity as going to appear at the set today together with the biggest investor of the film.

At this moment, the crew was getting busy.

"Y/N, since you're the supporting actress, go with me later to receive the investor. I heard that he is hot-tempered, so try not to argue with Ji-eun and Dia in front of him."

Chen Keyi specifically came to admonish her.

Y/N was still having her makeup done and when she heard his words, she simply looked up nonchalantly and assented. "Okay."

"By the way, I heard Lee Dong-wook say that you and Jimin have a good relationship because you two worked together on 'Female Fortress Leader'. So, you should pay more attention to Jimin, it's not easy for us to hire him as a guest star."

'Jimin?'

Y/N finally looked Chen Keyi in the eye and asked, "You mean Jimin is going to make a cameo appearance in our drama as the prince of the desert?"

"Yes, Lady Luck must be smiling at us. It's very hard to book Jimin for a filming slot, especially since we're just inviting him for a cameo appearance this time. I don't know how we got so lucky this time. I merely asked him tentatively if he would like to be a guest star and he agreed right away. He even brought his stylist with him."

"Hah...'

Of course he would agree, his beloved Little Pepper was there.

"Jimin is quite hot-tempered, so I'm counting on you, Y/N. I'll go check if the refreshments are ready."

The thought of Jimin's chattering made Y/N feel troubled.

"Sister Ji-eun, you look gorgeous!"

"Sister Ji-eun is really great, you are the highlight of our crew. I heard that because the investor is coming so Director Chen specifically requested to shoot the scene where you will be crowned consort today."

"Yes, this scene is the most exciting, Sister Ji-eun can finally suppress someone."

After Y/N had just gotten her foundation makeup done, Ji-eun walked over with a few actresses by her side.

Through the makeup mirror, Y/N could see the costume Ji-eun was wearing today.

She was wearing a gorgeous violet palace gown that was embroidered with large begonia flowers.

There were gold threads at the hems and the golden tassel hairpins in her hair swayed with every step she took. She looked especially beautiful.

Ji-eun was bare-faced.

She was known for her pure and girl-next-door beauty in the entertainment industry.

The costume she was wearing was beautiful, but she lacked the vibe that an imperial concubine should have.

By coincidence, Y/N had seen a real consort before.

That consort's aura was unmatched.

Y/N was completely mimicking the behavior of the empress that she had seen before, when playing her role this time.

She paid attention to every single move.

She admitted that she still lacked a little bit of vigor and could be more feisty.

"Y/N, the investor will be coming soon. Director Chen waiting for me to put on makeup to meet with him. Can you let me have my makeup done first? If I leave a good impression on the investor, it will be good for everyone in the crew."

While speaking, Ji-eun had already sat on the chair beside Y/N's.

The makeup artist paused and said, "Sister Ji-eun, Y/N's makeup will be done in ten minutes. Why don't you wait for a while?"

Ji-eun's manager was irked and she said sarcastically, "Are actresses nowadays so spoiled and like to put on airs? You're just a supporting actress but you're acting like you're playing the female lead. If we end up offending the investor because you're getting in the way of Ji-eun getting her makeup done, who's going to bear the responsibility?"

Being put in an awkward position, the make-up artist had no choice but to look at Y/N with a pleading gaze.

Y/N drank a mouthful of yogurt and said, "Oh.'

'Oh?'

Ji-eun's manager felt that her words had fallen on deaf ears.

She had been talking for so long but Y/N only replied to her with one word.

"Y/N, I know it's not right to interrupt you while you're having your makeup done but the investor is coming soon and since Fangfang is on leave, we only have one makeup artist..."

Y/N ignored her.

Ji-eun was already displeased but she was still maintaining a poised smile on her face. "Y/N, there must be a reason for our request. Can you let me have my makeup done first? The investor is coming so I have to go receive him."

'It's just an investor. Must you make such a big deal out of it? Have you considered the vain Jimin's feelings? Do you think you're the president?'

"Y/N, can you let me do my makeup first?"

Ji-eun was certain that Y/N would definitely agree at this point, especially since there were so many people around them.

Y/N stretched and picked up her phone to look at the time before answering slowly, "No."

Ji-eun choked.

'This little b*tch Y/N is forcing me to use my trump card, huh?'

"Y/N, you'd better let Sister Ji-eun have her makeup done first. After all, as a representative of the crew who is going to receive the investor, she can't afford to be late!"

"Yes, I think you just need to put on some blush and lipstick. I'm quite good at makeup, why don't you let me finish putting on your makeup while Ji-eun does Ji-eun's makeup?"

"No!"

Y/N squinted and clipped while staring at the mirror.

"Hey, you are just the supporting actress but you're being so arrogant and smug just because you're in an ambiguous relationship with Mr. Kai and Jimin. Ji-eun was the female lead in the last film that Mr. Jeon invested in and this time, he picked Ji-eun to be the female lead again. Are you sure you want to offend Mr. Jeon and Ji-eun at this time?"

'Mr. Jeon? So it's Jungkook who's coming!'

'I forgot that Jungkook is also the investor of this drama.'

The people around them all thought that Ji-eun might have something on with Jungkook.

Besides, Ji-eun seemed to be a little guilty, thus confirming their conjecture.

'Is Ji-eun Mr. Jeon's secret girlfriend?'

All eyes were on Y/N and they wondered if Y/N was going to be in trouble next.

Ji-eun's manager looked at Y/N arrogantly.

Y/N did not answer for a long time.

"Y/N, Director Chen chose me because I've worked with Mr. Jeon before and he thought that since we know each other, it would be more convenient. Besides, if I leave a good impression on Mr. Jeon, he might invest even more money into the production, and that'd be a good thing for all of us!"

In addition to Ji-eun's lapdogs, everyone nodded in agreement.

The CEO of Jeon Corporation was known to be hot-tempered.

They thought that although the last film that Ji-eun starred in did not have a good reputation, she had at least worked with Jungkook before and hence, it was less likely that Jungkook would suddenly lose his temper.

Y/N rubbed her ears and picked up the lipstick before handing it to Ji-eun who was behind her. "Continue, just ignore these nobodies."

"Y/N, how can you be so selfish and self-centered?"

Ji-eun's manager was enraged.

Ji-eun hurriedly pulled her back and pretended to be reasonable and understanding. "It's alright, let's just wait, I will personally explain to Mr. Jeon."

"If Mr. Jeon gets angry with the whole crew, can Y/N afford to take responsibility for this?"

'It would be best if she can't and ends up getting kicked out of the cast by Mr. Jeon.'

'No matter how arrogant Y/N might be, she still has to swallow her pride and be subservient to Mr. Jeon.'

After thinking about that, Ji-eun's mood got better and she said, "Since Y/N started having her makeup done first, let her finish. It's alright, I can explain to Mr. Jeon."

Ji-eun smiled and specially instructed the makeup artist, "Ji-eun, Y/N is acting as the empress so you have to pay more attention to her makeup!"

"Rest assured, Sister Ji-eun."

Ji-eun was immediately applauded and praised for her behavior.

'Why would I be scared of Jungkook?' Y/N thought to herself.

As expected, Jungkook arrived when Ji-eun just had her base makeup done.

The assistant director hurriedly came to the dressing room and asked, "Is Ji-eun not ready yet? Hurry up, you guys. Y/N, come along too, Mr. Jeon wants to meet the main cast and creators."

Ji-eun was a little nervous as she answered, "Assistant director, my makeup is not done yet..."

Her voice was very soft and she even sounded a little aggrieved.

The assistant director frowned and looked at Ji-eun. "What's the matter? Ah, forget it, just show up like this. Ji-eun, you're naturally pretty so you look great now too."

Ji-eun bit her lip and nodded. "Okay."

When Y/N followed the troops out, Jungkook had already arrived.

He was wearing a suit and a shirt with coat on top, as per his usual practice. His short hair was a little messy and he was giving off a strong roguish vibe.

His features were sharp too.

Due to his good looks, Jungkook was ranked among the top ten most handsome hunks in the city and had just as many fans as Jimin.

Some actresses who saw Jungkook already started screaming uncontrollably. Their voices were loud and deafening.

Y/N rubbed her ears and took the initiative to stand at the end of the crowd.

"Mr. Jeon, thank you very much for taking time out of your busy schedule to visit the set. We haven't been shooting for long but our overall progress is quite fast. If nothing goes wrong, we will be able to wrap up in advance."

Chen Keyi stood beside Jungkook with a wide grin on his face.

Jungkook had his hands behind his back while several bodyguards followed him.

"Yes, not bad."

At this moment, Ji-eun walked over while lifting the hem of her dress. She then pretended to do an ancient salute towards Jungkook.

"Mr. Jeon, welcome to our set. I'd like to greet you on behalf of everyone."

Ji-eun was smiling smugly. She had once had a brief conversation with Jungkook when she was still filming for 'Islander'.

He even complimented her skin.

Jungkook stared at Ji-eun for a long time condescendingly. "You..."

Ji-eun subconsciously touched her face and said in a gentle voice, "Oh, I was held up by something today so I arrived late at the set. When I went to the dressing room, our supporting actress was having her makeup done so I waited for a while. That's why my makeup isn't completed yet."

As soon as Ji-eun said that, everyone turned to look at Y/N who was at the back of the crowd.

Seeing that she was playing with her phone, those who were close to Ji-eun gloated.

'Mr. Jeon hates getting disrespected. So what if she can fight? She's going to be in trouble!'

Ji-eun hurriedly said, "It's not Y/N's fault. It's my fault for arriving late at the set, I can understand why the makeup artist did her makeup first."

'Will it kill you not to drag me into this?' Y/N rolled her eyes.

Jungkook's thick eyebrows were furrowed into a frown and he had a gloomy expression.

'This time, Y/N seems to have really offended Mr. Jeon!'

Even Chen Keyi was a little nervous.

Ji-eun was delighted. 'Y/N, just you wait, you'll get kicked out of the cast!'

In the end...

After a long time, Jungkook looked at Ji-eun with a puzzled gaze, "Who are you?"

Ji-eun was stunned and her smile stiffened greatly.

Seeing that Jungkook was really asking her a question in a particularly serious manner, she replied aggrievedly, "Mr. Jeon, I'm Ji-eun, the female lead of Islander. I had the honor of having dinner with you once."

Jungkook rubbed his chin with one hand and carefully recalled for a long time before snapping his fingers and saying, "I remember."

Ji-eun suddenly grinned widely while everyone looked at her with envy and jealousy.

"Why does your face look so different now? I remember that your nose bridge didn't use to be so high and your chin was a lot less pointed."

Y/N was on the verge of bursting into laughter.

'No wonder he used to be a gangster. He's got quite a sharp tongue.'

Ji-eun was a little flustered and she tried her best to maintain her smile. "Maybe... Maybe it's because I've been trying to lose weight lately and my workload has been intense. Don't they say that your features also become more pronounced after losing weight?"

Jungkook pondered for a moment before saying, "That makes sense."

Ji-eun sighed in relief.

In the end...

"Does breast size increase with weight loss? I remember that loser Hyun Bin saying that your only flaw is that you're flat-chested but you seem quite well-endowed."

Jungkook sounded very technical.

'Hyun Bin said such an intimate thing about Ji-eun. Could it be that Ji-eun is in an illicit relationship with Hyun Bin?'

He even talked about Ji-eun's bosom.

After Jungkook mentioned it, everyone also realized that Ji-eun's bosom had become larger.

'Tsk, she's still pretending to be a pure and innocent girl who hasn't had anything done on her face.'

'Mr. Jeon has exposed her this time.'

Ji-eun wished she could burrow into a hole in the ground.

'Isn't Mr. Jeon out to make things hard for her?'

"Mr. Jeon, did you misunderstand something? There's nothing going on between Director Hyun Bin and I."

Jungkook did not answer her and simply humphed. "Your relationship with Hyun Bin has nothing to do with me. However, there's room for improvement for your acting skills. Don't pull down the standards of the drama this time!"

For Ji-eun, who graduated from a film and television academy and had won a 'Best Actress' award, Jungkook's words were undoubtedly a slap in her face.

Besides, he said it in front of so many people.

Ji-eun secretly clenched her fist, but she could not do anything about it.

Jungkook was the CEO of Jeon Group.

It would be a piece of cake for Jungkook to ruin her reputation and destroy her career.

Ji-eun had no choice but to agree and answer subserviently, "I really still have a lot to learn and improve on. Thank you for the pointers, Mr. Jeon."

'Pointers? I didn't give her any.'

Jungkook humphed and stopped paying attention to Ji-eun. Instead, he started searching for Y/N.

Soon, he fixed his gaze at the end of the crowd and walked over. "Miss Y/N, you don't seem to welcome me."

'Does Y/N know Mr. Jeon?'

The crew on set were gossipy and eager to watch something exciting.

Y/N put away her phone and greeted Jungkook with a cold and indifferent expression, "Welcome, please make yourself at home."

"..."

'Make myself at home? You don't call the shots here at the studio.'

Jungkook had heard about what happened at the shooting range.

It seemed that she had defeated Mrs. Wang quickly and effortlessly.

Even he felt that Mrs. Wang's archery skills were superb.

"Miss Y/N, what game were you playing just now?"

"A game."

"What game? Can you show me?"

Y/N said with a look of disdain, "It's a game that requires critical thinking, it's not suitable for you, Mr. Jeon."

Jungkook's face turned sullen. 'Are you trying to say that I lack the intelligence for it?'

Seeing how familiar they seemed to be with each other, the surrounding people were shocked.

Chen Keyi also could not help but ask, "Mr. Jeon, do you and Y/N know each other?"

"She's Kim..."

"As a popular actress who is being actively promoted by TG Entertainment, which belongs to Kim Group, isn't it normal for Mr. Jeon to know me?"

'Is it appropriate of you to be so narcissistic?'

'Is it appropriate of you to talk to Mr. Jeon so arrogantly? It's over for Y/N, she's going to be boycotted by Mr. Jeon.'

Ji-eun was already ready to see Jungkook getting furious at Y/N.

Although she had been embarrassed by Jungkook today, she felt that it would be worth it if she could see Y/N being thrown out of the crew or even being boycotted.

Ji-eun secretly thought to herself.

"Let's be honest with each other. Miss Y/N, I really admire you, especially when you beat others up. Are you interested in joining my company?"

Y/N glanced at Jungkook.

'Join your company and become a gangster or a female attendant at an auction?'

Jungkook really admired Y/N the more he looked at her.

'This woman must be a damned drug I'm addicted to. Why do I want to see her all the time?'

'She's clearly a married woman who has probably slept with Taehyung several times before.'

He sighed...

'Men do have a penchant for holding themselves cheap, I'm no exception.'

Since he found that Y/N was not only violent and good at martial arts, but was also excellent at archery, he had been wanting to see her.

Y/N ignored the burning gaze in Jungkook's eyes and was just about to urge Chen Keyi to start filming when she heard a frivolous male voice.

"Little Pepper I'm here, Little Pepper, your Jimin is here to visit you!"

Jimin, who was dressed in peculiar clothes, suddenly rushed over.

He was just like a thirsty beast that was eager to pounce onto a beautiful woman.

Y/N's eyelids twitched and at the moment that Jimin was about to pounce on her, her feet swiveled and she moved to the side.

Jimin missed and nearly fell down.

"Little pepper, don't be shy, everyone likes watching us show off our loving relationship!"

The bunch of actors and actresses around them all looked at each other.

'What's going on? Has Jimin been rejected? There's actually someone who would turn down Jimin's hug? Y/N has gone too far!'

Y/N was troubled at the sight of Jimin.

She raised her hand and rubbed her temples before saying, "Jimin, stay away from me."

"No, I belong to you, Little pepper. I'll go wherever you go."

After saying that, Jimin spun around and blinked, trying to charm Y/N with his electrifying gaze. "Little pepper, how does my outfit look today? I had it custom made by a renowned designer. I feel like the most handsome man in the desert."

Jimin's cameo role was a desert prince who was an ethnic minority. Hence, his clothes were special and exotic.

Jimin's handsome good looks were really suitable for his costume.

Y/N answered with a straight face, "You look fine."

Jimin was ready to play coquettish but Jungkook could no longer stand it. He stopped, "Jimin, do you really not care about your image in public? You're a Best Actor titleholder after all."

Jimin turned around and was immediately displeased when he saw Jungkook. "What does it have to do with you? If you're jealous of my good looks, just say so."

Jungkook was speechless, and his facial expressions became extremely exaggerated.

Jimin must have a twisted mind for competing with another man in terms of looks.

"Why? Do you admit that I'm more handsome than you?"

Jungkook sneered. "Jimin, you're thinking too much. However, what are you doing flirting with Miss Y/N instead of shooting your scenes? What are your intentions?"

'Jungkook keeps pestering her. Does he think he can do whatever he wants just because he's rich?'

"Little Pepper, why are you in contact with that Jungkook? Jungkook is not a good person, trust me!"

"You're being so noisy. Director Chen, I'm almost done memorizing my lines, we may begin anytime."

Chen Keyi nodded and arranged for Jungkook to sit next to him to watch.

Jungkook did not have much time, and the first scene to be filmed today was an important one.

Ji-eun finally felt that she was in charge and back on her turf again.

The scene of Heo Hwang-ok poisoning Consort Rong should have been filmed today but it was temporarily postponed because of Jungkook's visit.

They filmed the main scene instead.

Jimin played the desert prince who provoked the emperor and vied with him for the character played by Ji-eun, during the reception banquet.

The prince of the desert, Tony, and Zhou Pinyun met a long time ago. When Tony was injured in an accident, it was Zhou Pinyun who saved him.

Hence, he vowed to marry her.

At the reception banquet, the Empress Heo Hwang-ok wanted to show her prowess in front of Zhou Pinyun but was insulted by Tony.

Ji-eun was looking forward to the scene of Jimin teaching Y/N a lesson.

In the grand and opulent hall, a group of courtiers were sitting on both sides of the hall.

The emperor was sitting high on the dragon's throne with concubines and consorts of various sizes.

The desert prince Tony was seated on the right in front of the emperor.

He was dressed in a fiery red native costume with his hair draped over his shoulders. Holding a cup in his hand, he squinted his narrow eyes and looked exceptionally sinister.

"The beauties of your nation are really stunning."

Tony spoke while sipping on some wine but his gaze was fixed on Zhou Pinyun.

The previous incident between Zhou Pinyun and Tony had spread like wildfire and all the people present understood the meaning of his words.

The Empress Heo Hwang-ok suddenly said, "Consort Zhou has specially prepared a dance for this reception banquet."

Zhou Pinyun was known to be a good dancer, and hence, everyone looked at her curiously when they heard that.

Zhou Pinyun bit her lower lip and looked absolutely alluring.

Next, it should be the scene of her interaction with the prince.

"I..."

Smack...

The group of actors were getting into the mood when Jimin suddenly slapped his hand on the table.

"Cut, cut, cut."

The assistant director smiled and quickly asked, "Jimin, what's wrong?"

"That woman is now acting as the emperor's concubine, right? Why is she looking at me with such a thirsty expression?"

Jimin reached out and pointed at Ji-eun, furrowing his brows deeply.

'That woman? Jimin, you've worked with her so many times. You shouldn't have forgotten her name, right?'

'Besides, you've once publicly confessed to Ji-eun!'

Ji-eun had already prepared to go hard against Y/N just now but she was suddenly interrupted by Jimin. In particular, Ji-eun felt insulted after hearing Jimin's words.

The reason that she tried so hard to have that scene filmed today was that she wanted to show Jungkook and Jimin that she would always be better than Y/N.

'What is going on with Jimin? Wasn't he willing to offend the investors for my sake in the past? It's all Y/N's fault.'

Ji-eun thought to herself as she looked at Y/N.

Since Y/N debuted, Ji-eun had lost a significant amount of popularity to her.

Besides, in 'Female Fortress Leader', the role of Gyeong-ae should have gone to her and the person who was widely appreciated for playing the role of Gyeong-ae, should have been her!

'That woman snatched my role, and now she still wants to snatch the person I fancy away from me?'

Y/N picked at her nails and noticed the gaze of jealousy that Ji-eun shot at her. However, she nevertheless looked at her calmly.

"Jimin, I... If there's anything wrong with me, please enlighten me."

Ji-eun quickly calmed down and grabbed the hems of her skirt with both hands pitifully.

Jimin was an impressive figure.

He couldn't be treated like a normal person.

If others saw the look in Ji-eun's eyes, they would definitely hug her and comfort her. Yet, Jimin's reaction was exactly the opposite...

"Hey, don't cry, others might think that I bullied you!"

Ji-eun sniffled and tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes. "I didn't, Jimin, I just..."

"If you're not crying, what are you tearing up for? So, vulnerable women are not that good. Look at my Little Pepper, she's tough as nails!"

Y/N was speechless.

'Thank you. You're an illusory existence!'

Jungkook squinted and looked at Jimin in displeasure.

'This vain man is more and more of an eyesore.'

"Director Chen, what's with all the actors in the crew? Did I pay them to come here to argue?"

Jungkook used to be part of the triads and was famous in Seoul.

Seeing that he had lost his temper, Chen Keyi couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat on his forehead. He frowned and then looked at Ji-eun in displeasure.

"You won the Best Actress award after all. Show me what you're capable of."

Ji-eun felt innocent and wrongly accused.

Regardless of whether that scene was exciting or not, Ji-eun felt that she had performed well and thought that Y/N had clearly said something to Jimin previously to incite him to make things hard for her.

"Got it, Director Chen." Ji-eun then looked at Y/N again. "Y/N, I'm sorry, I know that the rumors about me and Jimin that spread previously have made you displeased. Since you and Jimin are close, I'll pay attention and keep an appropriate distance from him."

She pushed all the blame to Y/N with her words.

She was obviously trying to say that Jimin had previously picked on her because of Y/N.

Many people began to discuss privately and pointed fingers at Y/N.

"Y/N is just getting a benefit because she's rumored to be a couple with Jimin. Sister Ji-eun debuted many years ago and the number of productions she has starred in is several times more than Y/N!"

"However, I have to admit that Y/N has been performing better lately."

...

Y/N frowned and glared daggers at Ji-eun. "Don't say that, the rumors about you and Jimin have nothing to do with me. Don't stir trouble for no reason. Let me warn you, I'm very violent, so don't blame me if I hit you!"

"Y/N, you..."

"I like Miss Y/N's straightforward character. Unfortunately, she's already ma..."

Before Jungkook finished, Y/N immediately interrupted, "According to what you said and the rumors about you, I understand that you're destined to be alone for the rest of your life..."

At this juncture, Y/N sighed again.

'Destined to be alone for the rest of my life?' Jungkook's smile stiffened.

Chen Keyi had planned to give Jungkook a good impression of the entire cast of the drama today.

However, he lost the opportunity because of Jimin... Ahem, because of the uncooperative crew.

Before leaving, Chen Keyi almost knelt down in front of Jungkook, for fear that he would withdraw the investments all of a sudden.

In the entertainment industry, Chen Keyi was one of the top directors whom many respected.

However, in the world of capitalism and in the upper-class society, he was a nobody.

Society is just that realistic and pragmatic. He knew very well that he cannot afford to offend Jungkook.

Ji-eun followed behind and stared at Y/N's back with a disgruntled grimace.

"I have to get a reliable paparazzi to expose the photos I took last time."

After saying that, she smiled sinisterly.

'Y/N, I'll let you have the test of having your reputation ruined soon. Jimin likes you very much, huh? I'll let him see your true colors!'

Y/N felt that she might have been targeted by the paparazzi. Otherwise, why would she constantly feel a chill in her back?

Taehyung had just returned from the office. Recently, the Kim Group participated in a project to develop the Western region and alleviate poverty.

It was a key project that the nation was focused on this year. If they succeeded, it would be of great help to Kim Group.

Assistant Wen specifically delivered a large stack of documents and as soon as he finished reporting the situation, Jennie came running over agitatedly.

"Second Brother, bad news. Second Sister-in-law might really make a cuckold out of you soon!"

Taehyung's handsome face instantly turned gloomy.

Assistant Wen trembled and instantly paid more attention, for fear that he would miss some gossip.

'Is Second Young Madam Kim so bold as to make Mr. Kim a cuckold?'

Jennie had obviously just sprinted as she had her hands on her knees while gasping for breath. She said, "I heard that today, Jungkook and the 'Best Actor' Jimin went to Second Sister-in-law's film set. For Second Sister-in-law's sake, Jimin publicly provoked an actress whom Second Sister-in-law doesn't like while Jungkook stood up for Second Sister-in-law."

After saying that, Jennie took a deep breath before standing up with her hands on her waist. "Second Brother, Jimin has worked with Second Sister-in-law before in the past, and they've even filmed a kiss scene together. Will Second Sister-in-law really be unfaithful towards you?"

Taehyung looked up but he did not answer.

"And Jungkook too! Everyone knows that Jungkook is your rival! He even tried to openly flirt and snatch Second Sister-in-law away from you! Second Brother, Second Sister-in-law is a money grubber and Jungkook is so rich. She managed to get millions from him!"

Apart from his face that was growing increasingly sullen, Taehyung didn't seem to react much.

Therefore, Jennie began to suspect something.

'So what does Second Brother think after hearing about these?'

"Second Brother?"

Taehyung glanced at her. "Yes?"

"Aren't you angry?"

Taehyung raised his eyebrows and replied rhetorically, "Why should I be angry?"

'That's your wife and she has so many outstanding suitors. Even Third Brother might be harboring designs on her. Yet, you're not angry?'

'You're very magnanimous, huh?'

Jimin behaved like a sissy and Taehyung remembered that Y/N mentioned before that she liked scheming men.

As for Jungkook...

"I'm richer than Jungkook."

Taehyung suddenly said indifferently when Jennie was already getting ready to go upstairs.

Jennie froze in shock. "Huh?"

"Grandpa has arranged a blind date for you."

Taehyung did not answer but changed the subject.

Jennie sprinted back into her room. "I haven't gotten over my last relationship yet, I'm still healing!"

After a long time, Taehyung suddenly raised his arm and looked at his wristwatch. He then handed the document to Assistant Wen, and then unbuttoned the first button of his shirt before standing up casually.

"It's time to cook."

'Cook?'

Assistant Wen suspected that he was hearing things.

Taehyung had already entered the kitchen, and the cook who was preparing the ingredients immediately bowed when he saw him.

"Second Young Master Kim, why did you come in?"

"My wife likes my cooking."

'Wife?'

'When did Second Young Madam Kim eat the food Second Young Master cooked?'

'Besides... can Second Young Master cook?'

Taehyung ignored the cook's gaze of astonishment and pulled open the refrigerator door to select some of Y/N's favorite food ingredients.

"You guys are done for today."

"But..."

"You're not needed here."

"..."

They had passed the Michelin culinary exams before...

However, they had no choice but to obey since he was the boss.

Assistant Wen stood at the door and looked at Taehyung who rolled up his sleeves and began cutting vegetables.

To be frank, he seemed rather skillful.

Y/N just arrived home, and instantly smelled the fragrance wafting from the kitchen.

Her eyes instantly lit up and as soon as she reached the kitchen door, she saw Taehyung carrying fish soup out of the kitchen while wearing an apron.

"My wife, you're back."

Taehyung said in a particularly calm voice.

Y/N blinked and pointed at the apron that Taehyung was wearing. "You... You are..."

'What's up with Doggy Taehyung?'

"I made dinner, Darling, get ready to eat."

'Cook?'

Y/N looked at Taehyung suspiciously, moved to the dining table, and looked at the food on the table with glistening eyes.

'Oh right!'

She forgot that Taehyung could cook.

"Is the sun rising from the west today?"

Y/N looked out of the window.

"Darling, you used to really like my cooking when we were in America."

Taehyung pulled out the chair for Y/N in a gentlemanly manner. "Have a seat."

Y/N sat down while Taehyung took a seat on the chair beside her.

There were four dishes and one soup which smelled heavenly and looked appetizing. Y/N reckoned that they would definitely taste great too.

Taehyung scooped a bowl of soup for Y/N. "Have some soup first."

Y/N stared at Taehyung's handsome face.

'What is Doggy Taehyung doing? He's being so nice out of nowhere, he must have a hidden agenda!'

Kai and Jennie went downstairs only at dinnertime, but when they arrived downstairs, they realized that Y/N and Taehyung had already begun eating.

"Second Brother, Second Sister-in-law, you didn't even get Uncle Zhang to inform us when dinner was ready."

Jennie pursed her lips and was just about to take her seat when she realized that not only had she and Kai not been notified, but there wasn't any crockery for them either.

"Exactly, why didn't Uncle Zhang inform us?"

Kai didn't dare to complain to Taehyung, so he simply put the blame on and ordered Zhang Guoquan to get the crockery while he was seated.

Zhang Guoquan, who was habitually holding the electronic tablet in his hand, couldn't help break out in cold sweat when he heard that. "Second Young Master personally cooked dinner tonight."

The two siblings, who were ready to help themselves to the food, stiffened when they heard those words.

They then looked at Taehyung in unison.

'Second Brother cooked dinner tonight?'

'Second Brother can cook?'

They hurriedly retracted their hands and were scared that they would be poisoned to death after eating the food he cooked.

Kai suddenly recalled the noodles that Y/N cooked for him previously.

They were really... ordinary.

'Second Brother is much more spoiled than Y/N...'

Seeing that the two of them did not move, Taehyung did not bother to pay attention to them and simply pushed the bowl of soup towards Y/N.

"Doggy... Mr. Kim, your culinary skills have improved again. Well done."

Y/N said in a muffled voice as there was still rice in her mouth.

Kai and Jennie looked at each other.

'Since Second Sister-in-law has decided to eat too, should we...'

They picked up their chopsticks resolutely.

"Second Brother, the food you cook is actually so delicious!"

"Second Brother, when did you secretly learn to cook?"

They polished off all the food.

Jennie touched her round stomach and sighed. "Second Brother, you should cook more."

Only then did Taehyung glance at her and say, "You have to thank your second sister-in-law."

'Huh?'

Just as she was about to ask for the reason, Y/N's cell phone suddenly rang.

Very few people would usually call her.

Y/N glanced at the caller ID and realized that it was from Tzuyu.

As soon as the call went through, Tzuyu immediately said with guilt, "Y/N, I'm sorry, Mu Mu and I got you implicated. Rest assured, I'll clarify things."

Y/N was confused.

"What is it?"

"Have you not seen the hot search list?"

'Hot search?'

Y/N blinked and wondered, 'Am I on the hot search?'

"It's okay, I'll just clarify, don't worry about it."

"Slow down, don't be in such a hurry."

'Let me see what's going on this time.'

Y/N comforted Tzuyu before hanging up and logging onto Instagram to see that she had already received more than 99 private messages.

She opened one of the messages to see that it was from a fan.

"You've really disappointed me. I idolized the wrong person, goodbye."

'There is something wrong with these people...'

She tapped on the hot search list and saw her name on the top at first glance.

"Y/N's Illegitimate Son Exposed'"

'Illegitimate son? When did I have an illegitimate son?'

She clicked the link which led her to an article that was said to be written by the top paparazzi of the industry and there were more than a dozen photos attached to the article, all of which were of her and Mu Mu.

Y/N was very familiar with that scene. It was on the central square and they seemed to have been photographed on the day that she had helped someone out of kindness.

She was photographed squatting down and talking to Mu Mu, which was indeed quite loving.

However, those were not the main points. The main point was the content of the article.

"The illegitimate son of the leading actress of 'Female Fortress Leader' has been exposed. The child seems to be about four years old but Y/N has yet to reach the age of 23. In other words, she should have gotten pregnant at 17 years old. Who is the biological father of the child? Please look forward to the revelation next Friday."

The latter sentence fully aroused the curiosity of the majority of netizens, and the paparazzi who wrote the article, also had a sudden surge in fans.

Y/N's face was gloomy and she was emitting a murderous aura.

'Great, No. 1 Paparazzi, huh? I'll soon make you the No.1 stray dog!'

Smack!

Y/N slammed her clenched fist down against the table, giving Kai and Jennie a great shock.

Taehyung didn't say anything and simply looked at Y/N's face, seemingly deep in thought.

"Make yourselves comfortable, I'm going to go do some boxing."

After saying that, she abruptly got up and went outside the villa.

'Boxing...'

Kai's eyelids twitched. Based on his experience, every time Y/N went to the garden for a boxing session, it meant that someone was about to be doomed.

As soon as Y/N left, Jennie quickly pulled out her cell phone. However, before she could ask her classmates about gossip, she received a notification on her phone.

'Newly popular actress Y/N's illegitimate son exposed'.

'What the f***? Second Sister-in-law's illegitimate son exposed? When did Second Sister-in-law have an illegitimate child?'

Jennie hurriedly clicked on the news and read it all at a glance before finally handing the phone to Taehyung with a strange expression.

"Second brother, Second Sister-in-law, she, she..."

Taehyung raised his thick eyebrow and took the cell phone before taking a glance at it.

Kai also received a message from the head of the relevant department of the company.

"Second Brother, I've seen that little boy before when you asked me to pick up Sister-in-law. She's the son of Second Sister-in-law's friend, not Second Sister-in-law's."

She thought that Taehyung would be enraged or at least order people to find the so-called biological father of the child but in the end...

He returned the phone to Jennie with a calm expression, "I know."

"Huh?"

"This little boy doesn't resemble her nor me."

"..."

Jennie pursed her lips.

'Second Brother, you're so... Forget it, I won't mock you.'

Tzuyu had already gotten all her documents ready and in the beginning, she was thinking of informing Y/N about it and asking if she had any requests, but to her surprise, Y/N told her to stay silent.

Seeing that there were more and more people berating Y/N on the internet, Tzuyu felt even more guilty and ashamed.

"Mommy, didn't you say we're going to go see Mommy Y/N today?"

Mu Mu was carrying his favorite Transformers figurine, which was the gift that he planned to give to Y/N.

Tzuyu looked at Mu Mu with a sorrowful expression and forced herself to smile. "Mommy Y/N is busy today, shall we visit her another day?"

"But I even have a gift ready!"

"It's okay, you can just give it to her next time."

Y/N was all ready to beat someone up because there was obviously someone behind this. The mastermind was deliberately trying to smear her.

She hadn't been in this world for long but she had already made many enemies.

'No. 1 Paparazzi, huh? I'm coming for you!'

The trio stood at the door and watched Y/N box.

"Second Brother, why haven't you intervened yet? Once you do, won't the matter be solved?"

Kai nodded and said, "I'll have the PR department make some clarifications and report that No. 1 paparazzi."

Taehyung leaned against the door frame sluggishly with his arms folded. Upon hearing his words, he didn't even look up.

"She will take care of it herself."

Y/N would never let others interfere and help her settle her matters.

That was what he currently understood about her.

All of a sudden Y/N walked over aggressively and said, "Kai, go investigate and find out who that No. 1 Paparazzi is."

Kai gestured to show his acknowledgment and then pulled out his cell phone immediately.

'I'm the first person Second Sister-in-law approached. Did you see that? I'm the most useful person in her heart!'

Seeing this, Jennie pursed her lips and when she suddenly thought of something, she said with a deferential expression, "Second Sister-in-law, I have lots of friends, do you want me to get a few people to beat up that paparazzi and stand up for you?"

Y/N frowned slightly and asked with some displeasure, "Are you looking down on my martial arts skills?"

Jennie shook her head vigorously.

Y/N looked at Taehyung again, trying to ask him if there was something wrong.

Taehyung grinned and said, "Darling, if you need my help, feel free to let me know."

Y/N waved her hand and said, "I won't bother you, Mr. Kim."

She thought that dealing with a mere paparazzi wouldn't warrant Taehyung's help.

She just wanted to search along the clues and find out who that person was.

If this paparazzo was specifically following her, there was no way she wouldn't have noticed.

The only explanation was that someone who knew her and bore a grudge against her happened to be passing by at the time.

Having figured that out, she could narrow down the possible targets again.

Kai was indeed worthy of being a Kim. He was highly efficient and soon managed to get hold of the information of that paparazzi.

That paparazzi's name was Zhang Wei, who was 33 years old this year and was recently divorced, with a six-year-old child whose custody was granted to his ex-wife.

Zhang Wei had worked as a paparazzi for ten years, and during the first few years of his career, he relied on selling private photos of celebrities to make money. Later on, he gradually built his reputation and fame, and then started threatening celebrities with the news scoop that he had found. In order to prevent him from exposing the news about them, those celebrities had no choice but to give him money.

Later on, he became more and more famous, and even gained some fans of his own. He then began to follow the example of his seniors by creating previews for the revelation of the news he had.

He even outshone his senior.

He would give a preview for the rumors that he was going to expose and even deliberately concealed the identity of the person involved. He would also give some vague, descriptive hints.

Usually, many celebrities would jump to conclusions and think that they were the culprits. They would then contact Zhang Wei and pay him some money to buy some "peace" for themselves.

In the eyes of the general public, Zhang Wei was the source of gossip and truth about scandals for those who were extremely interested.

On the other hand, in the eyes of the artistes of the entertainment industry, they all wished death upon Zhang Wei.

Y/N finished reading the information about Zhang Wei and stared at the floor with a sly smile.

She decided that she would teach him a good lesson on behalf of her fellow artists of the entertainment industry.

Kai usually loafed around but he was quite reliable when it came to work.

Apart from the information about Zhang Wei, he had even collated all the interactions he could find recently.

"Where is Zhang Wei now?"

"Second Sister-in-law, he's nearby. He seems to have received news about your whereabouts and is trying to find the father of that child."

At this point, Kai subconsciously looked at Taehyung.

"Everyone, get in place."

Kai looked through his cell phone and said, "In a cafe about one kilometer away... No, he's seated on a long bench outside."

Y/N raised her brows. 'Good.'

There was a small garden next to Sky Café.

It was already dark at this time, and the park was getting less and less crowded.

On a bench near the expressway, a man wearing a black jacket and a baseball cap was hanging his head low and fiddling with his camera.

The cell phone next to him suddenly rang.

"Don't worry, with my intervention, even a world-famous actress will have to face the destruction of her reputation... Work ethic doesn't mean anything to me. As long as there's enough money, we can discuss everything..."

After hanging up, Zhang Wei updated his Instagram account again.

Half an hour ago, he released a new teaser.

It was a photo of the most luxurious villa area in Seoul.

"The father of Y/N's child is a certain big shot who lives in this villa area. She had a child out of wedlock at 17 years old. How much benefit did that man give her? Who is the owner of this villa and who adopted Y/N? The answer is about to be revealed!"

As soon as the teaser was released, there were already more than 100,000 comments, which were all expressions of anticipation and excitement.

At the same time, Y/N's Instagram followers also dropped by more than 100,000 in a short period of time.

When Zhang Wei received another incoming payment and a photo, he smiled smugly.

"Y/N you have yourself to blame for offending someone who is willing to spend money to teach you a lesson..."

He was typing away quickly on his cell phone screen and was just about to edit a new update before posting it. At this moment, a fair and slender hand reached out and snatched it away from him.

Zhang Wei immediately flew into a rage and was about to lash out at the culprit when he suddenly saw Y/N's face.

"You are..." Zhang Wei frowned and continued, "Y/N?"

Y/N glanced at the content he edited and said while chewing some gum, "Paparazzi Zhang, you've got great eyesight, you recognized me so soon!"

She wasn't dolled up and her pretty face was unforgettable. Anyone would recognize her.

Zhang Wei didn't panic at all. He simply took out a cigarette from his backpack and lit it, crossing his legs extra arrogantly. "Miss Y/N, are you here to buy evidence? Unfortunately you won't be able to afford it. I advise you to leave this city and go to a poor countryside where no one knows you, to live in for the rest of your life."

Zhang Wei glanced at Y/N with disdain. "Why don't I introduce you to one?"

Y/N did not get angry either and instead deliberately asked with a naive tone, "Why do I need to buy evidence?"

'What do you mean?'

Zhang Wei glared at Y/N in bewilderment.

"You don't need to thank me too much. I'm here to spread the news for you, so as to ensure that you become the most famous figure on the net."

After saying that, she twisted Zhang Wei's wrist before he could speak.

Zhang Wei immediately shrieked in pain.

"What are you doing, Y/N?"

Y/N smiled harmlessly and said, "To deliver news to you! News that Y/N has beaten up the number one paparazzi and caused him to suffer from urinary incontinence for the rest of his life. How does that sound? Isn't that more newsworthy?"

Y/N pulled Zhang Wei's arms and put them behind his back. She then twisted them hard before letting go.

Zhang Wei was in so much pain that he almost stopped breathing. After recovering from it, he subconsciously raised his arm, only to realize that although it was a little red, there were no wounds or welts at all.

However, he was clearly in pain and could not catch his breath!

Y/N was not appeased and thus kicked him hard behind his knees.

"Quick, go and expose me and see if I'll paralyze you!"

Zhang Wei did not expect Y/N to be so good at martial arts. He had no idea how she found him too!

"Y/N, are you not afraid that I will completely ruin your reputation so that you can no longer survive in this city?"

Y/N nodded and said, "Of course I'm scared!"

Zhang Wei humphed coldly and forced himself to endure the sharp pain in his body. He then gritted his teeth and said, "Good that you're scared. I've seen plenty of female celebrities like you who sell their bodies to get to the top. You're just too unlucky to have offended the wrong person."

"You're quite unlucky too."

While saying that, she pinched Zhang Wei's jaw slightly harder, making him feel that his jaw was about to fall off.

The excruciating pain made his head feel groggy.

Zhang Wei wanted to beg for mercy but realized that he couldn't even open his mouth, and could only desperately blink at Y/N.

"What's wrong with your eyes? Let me help you remove your eyeballs, I'm good at removing them."

Y/N's voice was extremely gentle as she reached towards Zhang Wei's eyes with one hand.

Zhang Wei immediately closed his eyes tightly and shook his head profusely.

"You're scared?"

Y/N clucked her tongue against the roof of her mouth and let go.

Zhang Wei's face had turned purplish, and just as Y/N was going to let go, he started panting heavily while holding his chin with both hands. Even his tongue trembled.

"I... I'm going to call the police, just you wait!"

"Go on, let the police check if there are any injuries on you or not. If there aren't any, I will report you for slander!" Y/N said calmly with folded arms.

Only then did Zhang Wei remember to look at his wrists and ankles.

Apart from some redness, there were no wounds at all.

In fact, the redness would vanish after a while.

He gritted his teeth and glared at Y/N in exasperation.

Y/N did the action of gouging an eye out and asked sinisterly, "Do you really want me to gouge your eyes out?"

Zhang Wei's legs trembled.

'I've underestimated this woman, she is a psychopath!'

Y/N nonchalantly pulled out the pocket knife and played with it in her hand while saying, "Tell me, who gave you the money to expose me?"

Zhang Wei stared straight at the folding pocket knife in her hand and couldn't help but swallow saliva,

He would have never imagined her to be that brazen as to threaten him with a knife!

'Is she really going to assault me?'

"You have ten seconds. Hurry, there is a limit to my patience."

While speaking, Y/N moved her knife closer to Zhang Wei.

"I don't know."

"Huh?"

"Ma'am, I really do not know, the other party contacted me anonymously."

"What about the bank account that the money given to you was transferred from?"

"I have it, please wait a moment!"

While logging into the mobile banking app on his cell phone, Zhang Wei stole a glance at Y/N's knife with his peripheral vision.

"This is the account number."

Y/N took a picture of it before snatching Zhang Wei's cell phone and smashing it hard onto the ground.

"If you let me see you exposing any scandalous rumors related to me..." She smiled slyly and broke the camera tripod with her bare hands. "I will crush your bones."

Hearing the popping sound, Zhang Wei was so frightened that he almost peed his pants.

It was as if his bones had really been broken.

Y/N snored and left suavely.

Almost immediately after she left, a limousine stopped too.

Two men in black approached Zhang Wei with expressionless faces.

"Mr. Zhang, our CEO requests to see you."

'CEO?'

Zhang Wei asked apprehensively with puzzlement, "Who is your CEO?"

"Come with us and you will know."

Zhang Wei was almost forcibly shoved into the car.

As soon as he looked up, he saw the man sitting in the car.

He was dressed in a high fashion tailor-made suit and holding a wine glass in his hand. His features were handsome and he exuded a dignified aura.

Zhang Wei could see at a glance that the young man in front of him was rich and powerful.

"You are..."

He subconsciously became respectful and his instincts told him that he could not afford to offend this person.

The man put down his wine glass and crossed his legs while saying slowly, "Kim Taehyung."

'Kim Taehyung?'

Zhang Wei was astonished.

'Is he the legendary business elite, Kim Taehyung?'

"Oh, it's you, Mr. Kim. Is there a reason you're looking for me?"

Taehyung adjusted his necktie casually and asked, "Mr. Zhang, you seem to have an opinion about my wife."

'Mr. Kim's wife?'

Zhang Wei froze, trying to ignore the trace of ominous hunch within him. "Mr. Kim, who is your wife..."

"Kim Y/N."

As soon as Taehyung said that, Zhang Wei felt as if his head had exploded.

His pupils quickly dilated while his face gradually turned pale, and his tongue began to tremble.

"Mr... Mr. Kim, did you say that Mrs. Kim is... Y/N?"

Taehyung raised his eyebrow and asked, "What do you think?"

He suddenly remembered those scandals he posted about Y/N, and the image of Y/N beating him up just now.

Zhang Wei swallowed his saliva and was initially waiting to throw some more shade at Y/N, but now... he wished he could splash water at himself.

It turned out that Y/N was Taehyung's wife, who had been the talk of the town recently!

He tried to make himself digest this information and subconsciously looked at Taehyung. He hurriedly bowed and apologized, "Mr. Kim, it's my fault. I was too obsessed with money that I agreed to expose controversial content about Second Young Madam Kim."

If he had known of her identity earlier, he wouldn't have dared to do that regardless of how much money he was given!

Knowing that his purpose had been achieved, Taehyung waved his hand.

Zhang Wei still wanted to continue to express his feelings but he had already been dragged away by the bodyguards.

Y/N gave the bank account number to Kai.

"Find out the owner of this account."

Kai replied extremely quickly, "Yes, Ma'am!"

It was already late at night by the time she returned home, and to his surprise, Taehyung was not there.

Y/N looked at the weirdly shaped lollipop that she had bought and sighed.

'It's been a long time since I teased Taehyung.'

She was planning to do something exciting tonight but unfortunately...

Jennie headed downstairs with her cup, in a bid to get herself some water. She happened to run into Y/N who was holding an exquisite little bag.

"Second Sister-in-law, you're back, what are you carrying in your hand?"

Y/N glanced at her pocket before reaching her hand out to hand it to Y/N. "This is for you."

Jennie immediately looked flattered and surprised. "Second Sister-in-law, you're giving me a gift!"

"Yes."

Y/N nodded and walked upstairs.

Only after seeing her leave did Jennie look away and stare at the bag, which lifted her spirits.

'Second Sister-in-law brought me a gift. She's so good to me!'

She couldn't help but smile gleefully, unable to hide her joy.

She eagerly opened the bag, only to see a long paper box.

'Second Sister-in-law, you're so meticulous to have put it in a box. Is it a necklace?'

'The necklace given by Second Sister-in-law must be especially beautiful. After all, she has such great taste!'

She started sobbing...

'Second Sister-in-law has finally given me a normal gift!'

Feeling touched, Jennie opened the box and her smile stiffened.

This...

This...

The box contained a colorful lollipop.

However, the shape of the lollipop seemed a little phallic...

She blushed and before she could even look away, Taehyung and Zhang Guoquan had already arrived at the door.

The two of them saw the lollipop in Jennie's hand almost immediately.

Zhang Guoquan covered his mouth and coughed.
