Chapter 26
Taemin was in a foul mood for the rest of the day because the memories of his past had been raked up. When Minjun sent Sena to school, he didn’t even dare to greet her. Taemin was cooling off in the garden when Steward Zheng and the other servants pushed each other to approach her as none of them dared to disturb him. Finally, Taemin discovered their presence.
Kwon Taemin
What’s wrong?
Steward Zheng
Ahem, Second Young Mistress, your phone keeps ringing.
Steward Zheng
•Hahn Taemin’s cell phone over respectfully.•
Taemin was holding a copy of ‘The Da Vinci Code’ in is hand and was reading it with great interest. Hence, he forgot about his cell phone.
Kwon Taemin
Oh, Thanks
Steward Zheng
You’re welcome. Second Young Mistress, Third Young Master just called to say that Miss Jun is at school. He’s meeting a friend at noon and will not return, so what would you like to eat at noon?
Just as he was about to say something, his cell phone began ringing again.
Kwon Taemin
📞Hello?
Tian wei
📞Ah, Tae, you’ve finally answered the call. Hong Bin called me this morning and agreed to play the male lead of my film. I was really shocked!
Kwon Taemin
📞Director Tian?
Tian wei
📞It’s me, well since both leads have been decided, I will find someone to produce the promotional posters. Shall we announce the film tonight?
Kwon Taemin
📞I’m only responsible for acting.
In other words, he was not concerned about the other matters. Tian wen simply treated Taemin and the mysterious ‘Second Young Mistress of the Jun Family’ as if they were gods to be worshiped.
Tian wei
📞Yes, yes, yes. Um, Tae, actually I am quite curious about something.
Kwon Taemin
📞Director Tian, go ahead and say it.
Tian wei
📞Um, about Second Young Mistress… I’ve asked around privately, but it seems that no one knows anything about Second Young Master Jun’s marriage. Um… did you make a mistake? Is the investor Young Mistress Jun not Second Young Mistress Jun?
Kwon Taemin
📞No, they’re just keeping their marriage a secret because both him and Mr. Jun like to keep a low profile.
Tian wei
📞Oh, I see, but no matter what, you must thank Second Young Mistress for me. he’s a huge benefactor.
Taemin’s delicate face turned sullen. After hanging up, he hesitated and contemplated if he should inform his in-name husband about what he had spent 100 million yuan on. His cell phone rang again, but it was a call from a number that he didn’t recognize. The number seemed rather auspicious too.
Kwon Taemin
💭Since when did I become so popular?
Kwon Taemin
📞Who’s speaking?
Anybody
📞Hello baby, does my beloved feisty little pepper miss me yet?
Kwon Taemin
💭Lei pepper? Baby?
Standing at the side, Steward Zheng started listening intently. It’s the voice of a stranger!
Steward Zheng
💭Has Second Young Master been made a cuckold?
Taemin knew who it was as soon as he heard his playful and shameless voice. It was the pompous ‘Best Actor’ Hong Bin.
Kwon Taemin
📞What is it?
Hong Bin
📞After the Best Actor got beaten up by you, he suddenly found you so charming that his heart is beating hard for you. Soo, on your account, I’ve decided to star in Tian wen’s film.
Steward Zheng
💭Best Actor Who?
Steward Zheng secretly hated himself for not paying enough attention to the entertainment industry. However, he had obtained a very important piece of news. Taemin had somehow beaten up the ‘Best Actor’ who seemed to be a masochist and had thus fallen for him! ‘What a sin.’ Hong Bin continued to rattle on and on about not minding the fact that Taemin was an unimportant actor and that he didn’t mind his uncouthness.
Kwon Taemin
📞 Oh
Hong Bin
💭Oh? I’ve said so much and all I get is an oh?
Hong Bin
📞Lei pepper, I’m worth more than a billion won and even Hollywood directors have to make an appointment in advance if they want to hire me!
Bin ’s tone was boastful when he said those words.
Kwon Taemin
📞 Okay.
Hong Bin
📞Hey, can’t you say something else? Can’t you say that you’re thankful that I’ve decided to star in this film for your sake?
Kwon Taemin
📞I don’t want to talk to stupid people, that will make me stupid.
Kwon Taemin
•hung up the phone•
Hong Bin
…..
Hong Bin
💭Anybody actually has the audacity to hang up on the Best Actor who’s the most handsome and most famous actor with the most number of fans?
Hong Bin swallowed his saliva and looked at the documents of information about Taemin on the table.
Hong Bin
💭This little pepper is so much to my liking!
Seeing how cold and merciless Taemin was to the mysterious Best Actor, Steward Zheng secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
Steward Zheng
💭I knew it, how can Second Young Mistress be unfaithful towards an outstanding man like Second Young Master who’s hard to come by?
At eight o’clock in the evening, Director Tian wen, who was once popular but had disappeared from the entertainment industry for a long time and was then gradually forgotten by the world, posted something on Internet.
Tian wei
💬Tian wen: This is a new film and it’s exciting in a unique way. Our female lead @BanditLeader and our male lead is @Hong. Once again, I’d like to specially thank the Second Young Mistress of the Jun Family who was willing to invest in this film.”
He attacked a montage of Taemin and Hong Bin which was forcibly pieced together. As long as Hong Bin ’s name was mentioned, all news about him would make it to the hot search, even more so since the person who posted it was a once-famous director. Soo, the news that Tian wen was producing a new movie that Hong Bin was going to be the lead actor spread throughout the internet.
“No way. The last production of Director Tian was awful, and his character is vile. How is it possible that Hong Bin is going to star in his film?” “Isn’t Taemin that beautiful omega who beat up Sung to get himself some fame in the entertainment industry? He may be innocent in that incident, but he’s just a background actor who isn’t worthy of starring alongside Hong Bin .” “Hong Bin , if you’re being kidnapped, blink. I will risk my life to save you!” ”Am I the only one whose focus is on the ‘Second Young Mistress of the Jun Family’? How can Second Young Master Jun, the godlike CEO of Jun Group be married?” ”CEO Jun can’t be married. If he’s married, how come there is no news about that at all? I’d believe it if it’s Mr. Jun’s sister-in-law. Well, I’m sure this is a conspiracy.” “Are you serious? Since when has there been a Second Young Mistress Jun? Hong Bin , did you get cheated? Tian wen has a bad reputation!”
At first, everyone’s attention was still on Hong Bin playing the male lead, but later, they started discussing the Second Young Mistress of the Jun Family who seemed elusive. Taemin was lying on the soft pillow and scrolling through wen. He had long expected that reaction from the gossip-loving netizens. Unfortunately, there was really a Second Young Mistress Jun who was also the actress playing the female lead. In order to prove that he did not lie, Tian wen posted the receipt of the 100 million yuan funds transfer, but he erased the name of the sender. Given Tian wen’s tarnished reputation, certainly no one would be silly enough to invest in his film, what more a hundred million yuan. Only a fool or someone with too much money would do that. Hence…
“Damn it, there’s really a hundred million. Did my domineering CEO really get married behind my back?” “No, I don’t accept it. I don’t want to accept it. Only fairies are worthy of someone like CEO Jun!” ”I’m in trouble. Doesn’t this mean that the playboy Third Young Master Jun is the only bachelor left in the Jun Family? He might be handsome too but he…” All of a sudden, the news of Tian wen producing a new film became a hot topic. On the third day after Taemin received the script, the shooting of the movie in which he would be playing the female lead for the first time in his life officially began.
