After a long nap, Seohyun finally woke up at 11:30pm. As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Yoong. At first, she was a little shocked. But, she quickly regained her composure.

"Seo Seo..."

"All that matters is that you're OK," Seohyun said with a raspy voice as she looked at Yoong. "I want to sleep a little while longer."

Yoong reached out his hand and held onto Seohyun's right hand as he tried his best to speak gently, "Sleep. I'll be right here."

Seohyun gently closed her eyes. However, a moment later, her eyes suddenly flew back open, "I'm not dreaming, am I?"

"Of course not," Yoong replied as he held onto her hand tightly. "It's my fault for being late again."

"You don't need to say pointless things like this. I know that you didn't have a choice. You should give your parents a phone call, they're really worried about you." After speaking, Seohyun closed her eyes. This time, she was going to get a good night's rest.

Yoong didn't know how to comfort Seohyun. Only at this point did he realize how sloppy he was.

Although he didn't know if Seohyun would like it, he felt that there was one thing he could do...

So, he lifted Seohyun off the bed and carried her straight out of the hospital.

Seohyun was shocked by his sudden movement, so she quickly grabbed onto his neck and asked, "What are you doing?"

"I'm taking you somewhere." After speaking, Yoong placed Seohyun into his car and drove straight into the woods. Soon, the car arrived at the peak of the mountain. This location felt extremely close to the sky.

Yoong opened the roof of the car and allowed Seohyun to lean against him as he wrapped her tightly in a blanket.

"In the entire Korea, this spot has the best view of the night sky."

Seohyun understood his thoughtful gesture. But, her heart began to race as she leaned into Yoong's embrace and felt his firm chest muscles press against her back. In fact, she could even feel his heart beat.

"I'm sorry for making you worry."

"I'm not sure what got into me either. All I know was, I arrived here and I wasn't going to give up. But, I never expected my body to be so weak."

Yoong did not say a word as he hugged Seohyun especially tight.

In his 30+ years of life, he had never been in a relationship. He once thought that it required practice, but now that he was hugging Seohyun in his arms, he finally understood that a person's body was dominated by emotions and was beyond his control.

He wanted to hug Seohyun; he liked Seohyun.

Although the night sky was beautiful, Seohyun soon started sneezing from the cold. Yoong was aware that she couldn't stay out in the night wind for too long, so he quickly helped her back into her seat and directly headed for the Lim Family Home.

"This isn't the way back to your home."

"Uh huh," Yoong agreed before he jumped out of the car and carried Seohyun in his arms again.

The Lim Family were shocked. Yoong had never brought any women home, yet he was now carrying one straight into the house. Of course, Mother Lim and Father Li were amongst those that were shocked. They were stunned by the sight as they followed Yoong to his room.

"Son..."

"Mom, can you prepare some soup?"

"OK," Mother Lim quickly turned and left. Meanwhile, Father Lim stood to the side and cleared his throat. He was still in shock. His son was being much too brave. His relationship with the young woman hadn't even truly started, yet he directly carried her home.

Of course, Seohyun was also shocked speechless, so she pretended to have fallen asleep to prevent any awkwardness.

"Yoong, come out for a moment." After seeing Yoong help Seohyun settle, Father Li called his son out to the living room. "What's this all about? Why did you suddenly carry the young woman back here?"

"She waited for an entire day and night outside the military camp for me and fainted. I was worried that I wouldn't be able to take good care of her..." Yoong replied.

"This child must be the Lee Family's adopted daughter?" Father Lim asked.

"Yes."

"She looks like a well behaved child. Is there really nothing going on between her and her brother?"

"Nothing," Yoong replied with complete confidence.

Father Lim trusted his son's judgment, so he nodded his head, "OK. Since you already brought her back here, your mother and I have nothing to say. We don't have any special requirements for our daughter-in-law, as long as she is kind-hearted."

"You will find out after you get to know her," Yoong guaranteed.

Soon, Mother Lim finished preparing some soup and brought a bowl into the room for Seohyun. At this moment, Seohyun could no longer play dead because Mother Lim had already seen through her act.

"Child, sit up and have some soup, otherwise you'll catch a cold. I know you're not actually sleeping."

Seohyun had no choice but to sit up and apologize, "I'm sorry, auntie. I didn't know what to do..."

"You're not the only one. We are still confused as hell," Mother Lim spoke in a young and hip manner. "But, since you're here, it must mean that there are mutual feelings between the two of you, right?"

Seohyun's face turned red, but she had no choice but to nod her head.

"Great. Find a chance to seal the deal and you guys will be official..."

Was Mother Lim afraid that she'd run away?

Seohyun was a little frightened by this family...

...

Tiffany quickly heard about what Seohyun did. Not only had she run off to the military base to wait for Yoong, she was even carried home to meet his parents. They were moving at a similar speed to when her and Taeyeon first got together.

But of course, as a friend, she was happy that Seohyun had found happiness.

Meanwhile, 'The Ant Queen' officially started filming...

But, from the moment that Cate arrived in Korea she continuously played tricks. Initially, she had already added a few extra conditions to her contract with Qiao Sen. Yet, just before filming, she requested to add more.

Qiao Sen was so angry that he didn't eat for an entire day. He couldn't accept it, but he also had no choice.

After all, she was one in a million. So, he had to persevere.

At this time, Taeyeon had not started on set yet. Only a few supporting characters had started their scenes. As the entire crew vowed to confidentiality, the other actors had not seen the two leads yet. All they knew was, the female lead would be played by the French actress, Cate.

Cate was everyone's dream girl, but Qiao Sen knew that once everyone came in contact with her, there would be a huge drama.

Qiao Sen ended up telling Tiffany what happened with Cate. Although Tiffany didn't want to see Cate, she ended up personally dealing with her for the sake of the film's smooth progression.

Cate's team was very arrogant. After all, if not because of the money offered, Cate would never join a production like this.

Apart from the one benefit of money, a production team that had no fame at all was probably bound for complete and utter failure.

They were claiming to be the first serious sci-fi film in South Korea, yet they ended up hiring a French actress in the end. If they were that great, they should have hired one of their own.

"What a bunch of trash!" they thought.

The woman was aware of Tiffany. After all, she had stirred up the international arena quite a few times.

But regardless of who they were up against, Cate's team was confident that their extra conditions would be added to the contract.

"In France, I am treated like a national treasure. Everywhere I stay is at a 5-star standard. But look at the hotel here in Korea. Even the air conditioner is broken."

"I don't want to stay in a place like this."

If someone complained that Hollywood was mistreating foreign actors, they would have to endure it, because it was Hollywood. But, who did Superstar Media think they were in comparison?

Cate's team was prepared to battle it out with Tiffany. They already had a thousand reasons to convince Tiffany to accept the new conditions.

But, they had obviously underestimated Tiffany's abilities as a manager and boss.

They thought she was here as an actress.

But, from the moment that Tiffany stepped foot into the meeting room, she was no longer the actress Tiffany.

The white suit on her body made her appear mature and gorgeous. Cate suddenly found that she was unable to tell what Tiffany had planned.

Cate had brought along a few lawyers as well as her manager and assistant. All up, there were five of them. But, Tiffany simply brought along Sunny.

"I heard that your team requested additional conditions," Tiffany said straightforwardly.

Cate did not say a word. Instead, her manager spoke on her behalf, "Our Cate is famous in France and has a considerable status in the international arena. We have the right to receive better treatment."

"You should have discussed these conditions when you first signed the contract. Since the contract is already signed, then you have the responsibility to abide by it. Or do you think Superstar Media is easy to pick on?"

"The contract was set by us, so there's always room for adjustments. Plus, you were the ones that invited Cate here. Shouldn't your responsibilty be to satisfy her needs?" the manager asked expectantly.

"If you want to blame someone, you should blame yourselves for not having anyone in South Korea that is comparable to our Cate. Otherwise, why would you travel so far to beg us?'

"So what do you plan to do?" Tiffany crossed her arms.

"Our lawyer will discuss with you the conditions that our Cate wants," the manager thought that Tiffany was coming to a compromise, so he began to mention the lawyer.

But, as soon as Cate's lawyer stepped forward and handed Tiffany some documents with Cate's conditions, Tiffany stuck out her hand and gestured for them to stop.

"Before you make any new requests, I think you should sign this document first," Tiffany gestured for Sunny to hand over a document that was typed in French and placed it in front of Cate's manager.

"A contract cancellation agreement?" the manager was shocked.

"Superstar Media may have a lot of money, but we aren't stupid. The first time you made requests, I already had the intention to send you packing back to France."

"I have three reasons for this."

"Firstly, my country may not be well developed, but I still have access to entertainment news. At the very least, I know that Miss Cate's acting in France is skilled, but her reputation is a mess. So don't tell me that you get treated like a national treasure in France. Do you think I've never been to France? Or did you expect me to never go to France? How embarrassing..."

"Secondly, it's not that South Korea has bad actresses. It's just that Cate suits the role we are trying to fill. If it wasn't because I was pregnant, I don't think she would have stood a chance. According to statistics, my influence in the Western Market seems to be much higher than hers..."

"Thirdly, from what I've heard, Miss Cate has reached a point in her career where she is trying to change her style, but she hasn't found any suitable roles and ended up partaking in a few flops, causing her agency to suffer. If we were to cancel our contract now, and your agency blames you for their loss, not only will Cate stay in a room with no air conditioning, she may be left with no room at all!"

"In conclusion, Superstar Media were the ones that chose you, not the other way around."

"So, go ahead, sign the contract cancellation and go home. Let's not waste anymore of each other's time."

The other party never expected for Tiffany to say such harsh words.

So, Cate looked especially displeased.

"Sunny, keep an eye on them as they sign the agreement. I don't have time to waste on them," Tiffany said before she turned to leave. However, Cate's manager suddenly held her back.

"I can sue you for breaching the contract and request for compensation."

"The first time that we revised the contract, we already confirmed it as the final revision. In other words, you have no right to request for a second revision, or you'd be breaching the contract. So, I'm afraid the person that will end up paying compensation is you..."

The manager froze after hearing these words.

Obviously, they came here intending to get benefits from Tiffany, but never expected that she never wanted them from the start.

What a bunch of trash!

Although Tiffany expected foreign actors to receive special treatment, it was unreasonable for Cate to be so pampered.

Tiffany's standpoint was clear, her approach was firm and her message was simple: either act or go home!

"Come on, sign it," Sunny said in English.

But, the manager pretended not to understand English and refused to sign it.

Of course, Sunny did not expose him. After all, Tiffany didn't truly want them to leave. She simply wanted them to know that Superstar Media weren't pushovers.

Afterwards, the manager called Qiao Sen over and spoke to him in a much more polite manner.

Qiao Sen was quite surprised. It seemed, from now on, Tiffany would need to personally deal with these matters.

After this incident, Sunny waited for a suitable time to speak to Tiffany, heart to heart, "I thought you'd take this opportunity to send Cate home and take on the role yourself. I never expected you to keep her around."

"Tiffany, both Sooyoung and I think that a domestically produced sci-fi film should starr one of our own. Otherwise, it wouldn't feel as pure and authentic."

"Neither of us feel like we can accept it."

"You worked so hard to prepare for this film. If you end up making Cate famous, the only face in everyone's memories would be hers."

"Even if you couldn't take the role, you should have found someone else from South Korea to take it..."

"I didn't make the decision," Tiffany replied. "I'm sure Qiao Sen made his decision from a business standpoint. Let's just stick with it for now and see how we go."

"Once the film begins shooting, there's no turning back," Sunny reminded. "Plus, both Sooyoung and I don't understand why you must give up your identity as an actress. Even though you're a manager now, why can't you still act?"

"Xu Xin's incident wasn't your fault..."

Tiffany did not say a word. To be exact, there was nothing she could say.

"You are currently a highly sought after manager and actress. Whether it's your popularity or your acting, no one can compare to you..."

"Sunny, that's enough," Tiffany rubbed her stomach as her gaze darkened.

"OK," Sunny sighed helplessly.

Tiffany was currently pregnant, so she couldn't have too much ambition nor ideas. For now, being a mother was her main identity.

Taeyeon put aside his work for Tiffany's sake. So, for the sake of her daughter, Tiffany had to take good care of her body.

There was nothing more to think about...

As for Cate, it was best if they didn't end up using her. But, even if they did, Tiffany would never allow Sunny's worries to come true.

But, of course, she had no idea that her battle with Cate had only just begun.

...

It was currently early in the morning.

After resting at the Lim Family Home for an entire day and night, Seohyun finally had the energy to get out of bed.

But, Yoong was not by her side and she was in someone else's home. How was she to walk around? It was certainly awkward.

"Aiya, Seo Seo...why are you out of bed?" Mother Lim's voice echoed from the distance. "Yoong returned to the military base already. He asked me to take care of you. Are you still feeling unwell?"

"No, Auntie..."

"I know it's hard for you to adjust to this place. The two of you aren't anything yet and he already brought you here. His father and I were also quite surprised. But, since the two of you have the intention to take things further, we have nothing to say. So, don't feel so conscientious," Mother Lim said with a grin. "Treat this place like your own home."

"But, from now on, don't let people doubt your relationship. After you get married, you can immediately move in here."

Seohyun: "..."

"Actually, I still have work to do. I'm going to return to work now."

"This child. Don't act like an outsider. Come drink some chicken soup."

Seohyun: "..."

Seohyun had never experienced the warmth of a family, so Mother Lim's enthusiasm was a little overwhelming. But, it wasn't hard to tell that Mother Lim was an open-minded mother who held her son's opinions in high regard. This was something the Seohyun had never witnessed in the Lee Family.

So, this chicken soup was a little hard to swallow.

"Don't be so silly from now on. If you wait too long for the rascal and don't see him, then go find someone else. It's better to torture the jerk than to torture yourself and make your body suffer."

This time, Seohyun felt extremely embarrassed...

In fact, she was beginning to question whether Mother Lim was Yoong's birth mother.

Luckily, at this time, Xia Hanmo had already finished filming overseas and was back in South Korea. So, Seohyun was summoned back to her side. If not for this, Xia Hanmo wouldn't have known how to excuse herself from the villa.

Mother Lim didn't want Seohyun to leave; she had wanted a daughter for many years. Plus, it was a rare occasion for Yoong to bring home a woman, so Mother Lim had to take advantage of her time to enjoy being taken care of by a daughter.

It was all Yoong's fault for being too reliable and not allowing her to experience the joys of being a mother. He grew up way too quickly...

But, apart from growing up, he spent most of his time at the military base and had a cold expression the majority of the time.

"Seo Seo, please visit often."

"OK, Auntie," Seohyun was quite frightened. Even so, she still felt a sense of warmth spread through her entire body.

After arriving at Xia Hanmo's home, Xia Hanmo stared at Seohyun and noticed a soft smile on her face. It was obvious that she had made progress in her love life.

"Are you happy?"

"It's a bit overwhelming," Seohyun summed up her experience at the Lim Family Home.

"Yoong is a good person," Xia Hanmo said in seriousness. "Cherish him well. The two of you have gone through a lot together. If you get married in the future, you will definitely be very happy."

Hearing the word 'married', Seohyun was suddenly reminded of Lee Young-Min.

Lee Young-Min was getting married soon.

Later that night, Seohyun finished work and headed downstairs. As she left the building, she spotted Yoong's car and quickly ran over to it.

"My mom told me that you left, so I assumed you'd be back at work."

"Yeh, Auntie was being too enthusiastic," Seohyun said in an overwhelmed tone as she boarded the car.

Yoong did not say a word. Instead, he leaned over and placed a kiss on Seohyun's cheek.

Seohyun was a little surprised by his action.

"What was that about?"

"Nothing."

Yoong's lips slightly curved upwards as he started the car and drove Seohyun home. But, just as they arrived, Seohyun suddenly said to Yoong, "My brother is getting engaged. Can you come with me to the engagement party?"

"Since it's your brother, then, of course, I'll go,"
