The fierceness in Taehyung's expression had long disappeared, all that was left was worry and helplessness.

He wrapped Jennie's legs with clothes he removed from his own body and rubbed her hands between his until her extremities warmed up. Only then did he gently let go of her legs and look at her unhappily.

"I'm OK," Jennie quickly said. Afraid that Taehyung wouldn't believe her, she stressed, "Really."

Seeing Taehyung remain silent, she continued to explain, "I am an A-Grade model. You should know better than anyone that I am not easy to deal with. I got to where I am today, not because of my tolerance. I know what I'm doing, so can you not be so worried?"

Taehyung remained silent as he diverted his attention to Chanyeol who was currently sizing him up through the rearview mirror.

Chanyeol had to admit, out of all the people he'd ever met in his life, no man had a gaze as piercing as Taehyung's.

When facing Jennie he could be gentle, but when facing others, he had to be dominating like a king.

This man was Jennie's hidden man. Up to this point, Chanyeol still found it hard to believe.

"I will give Her Vision a call and tell them to send over a new photography team..." Chanyeol quickly said.

"We will use our own photography team, I will pay for it. Her Vision only has this one photography team and we already eliminated them," Taehyung said coldly. "I remember Cheng Tian has a photography team called 'Fearless'..."

"Although they work for Cheng Tian, in recent years, they have only been following Li Danni and Hua Yuan around. The internal departments have already taken it as a fact that they are pretty much their own personal photography team," Chanyeol explained. From what he gathered, did Taehyung want to fight over the photography team with Li Danni and Hua Yuan?

Regardless, President Kim, Cheng Tian is someone else's company, how could you know more about the company than its staff does?

"Contact them..." Taehyung's voice was cold, "If someone has the guts to scheme in secret, then they should understand the consequences!"

Chanyeol froze. Did Taehyung already know who the culprit behind the photographer was?

Regardless, Taehyung's words reminded Chanyeol, now that Jennie joined Cheng Tian and was the one they were supporting and training, she naturally deserved the best resources. As well as that, from what he knew, Li Danni did not have any active jobs. In other words, the photography team were currently on a break. Since they belonged to Cheng Tian, then why couldn't they use them?

Jennie felt a little helpless because Taehyung preferred to talk to Chanyeol than to turn and look at her.

She knew Taehyung was angry, but because there were others in the car, she didn't say much. It was not until they returned to Dynasty Hotel that she finally approached Taehyung from behind and embraced him in a hug to give her explanation. However, after receiving a phone call from Suga, Taehyung grabbed a jacket, left a note on the table and left to meet up with a business partner...

...

Chanyeol and Nayeon returned to the hotel opposite. As they neared their rooms, Chanyeol's footsteps became uneven, it seemed he was hesitating about something. Seeing Chanyeol's actions, Nayeon couldn't help but snicker before placing her hands behind her back and lifting her eyebrows at him, "If there's something you are curious about, then ask."

"I want to know if President Kim is married? Is he serious with Jennie or is he just playing around?"

"He's married..." Nayeon replied casually.

"Then how can Jennie continue to be with him..."

"If you want to know, then listen to me carefully. The person he is married to is Jennie. They are husband and wife," Nayeon rolled her eyes. "When I first found out I was even more surprised than you. I even thought at one point, in order to get back at her jerk of an ex-boyfriend, she had married herself to an old sleazebag. It was only later that I found out Jennie had married Big Boss."

"However, Jennie does not wish to reveal their relationship. At the moment, they have a hidden marriage status."

After hearing Nayeon's response, Chanyeol let out a gentle chuckle.

How much more did Jennie have hidden from him?

"Chanyeol, it wasn't easy for Jennie to get to where she is today; she depended on her own ability. Although she is the wife of Big Boss, she is still a professional model. So, I hope you can treat Jennie the same as you did before.

Chanyeol glanced at Nayeon. He realized she had a deep understanding for Jennie.

"This secret, I will take to the grave," Chanyeol did not intend to treat Jennie any differently. If Jennie was someone that wanted quick success and benefits, there was so much she could have done; she didn't need to waste time on fighting like this.

But in reality... Jennie was Jennie. Even if she was married to Taehyung, she still had an aura that belonged to herself.

However, he couldn't deny, Taehyung being Jennie's husband was definitely unexpected...

Here he was, thinking the man behind Jennie was living off her. In the end, it turned out she had married the most powerful man in the entertainment industry...

Absolutely! Unbelievable!

Chanyeol felt like his face was swollen from Jennie's face-slap.

Of course, this wasn't the first time he had been slapped in the face by Jennie.

...

Because of the incident with the photography team, Her Vision's shoot was temporarily postponed. Jennie had no idea what Taehyung had said to Her Vision, but at least, word had not spread back to Beijing about Taehyung dealing with the photographer; in fact, not even a word was leaked.

This was consistent with Taehyung's principles; if he wanted to do something, there was nothing he couldn't do.

Jennie gently sighed as she continued to wait for Taehyung. It was not until it was late into the night did Taehyung finally return to the hotel. Seeing Jennie standing on the windy balcony with thin clothing, he immediately grabbed a blanket and walked out to wrap her up tightly, "Are you planning to kill me with anger? Huh?"

Jennie gently laughed as she replied, "No one wants to anger you, you are doing this to yourself."

Taehyung gave her a slightly disheartened look as Jennie took advantage of the situation to grab onto his hand and explain seriously, "You know I need you more than anyone. It's because I need you that I don't want you to help me in this way..."

"I know what you're thinking. But it's impossible for me to watch you suffer and stand idly by. If it was you, would you be able to watch me being bullied?"

Jennie looked down and thought for a bit before replying, "I wouldn't be able to do it either. But, the Taehyung I know would not allow others to bully him. If that day really does come, you wouldn't want me to see you in such a helpless state. So, I will not appear in front of you, because that is your pride."

Taehyung was stunned; what Jennie was saying was the truth...

"However, I will remember all those that have bullied you and I will do all I can to make them pay...Even if we have to perish together, I will not allow them to be any better off than you!"

Hearing these powerful words, Taehyung's handsome face finally softened as he pulled Jennie into his embrace, "If all you want is for me not to interfere with you, then you have successfully convinced me."

"Uh huh. However, I must admit, seeing you teach the photographer a lesson today, was extremely satisfying," Jennie praised in a serious tone. She then placed her face against Taehyung's chest, "Tae...just wait for me a little longer."

Taehyung tightened his embrace as he whispered in Jennie's ear, "Haven't I always been waiting for you?"
