Early summer, idyllically beautiful.
The air was permeated with the faint scent of flowers, as if one could reach out and still grasp the retreating spring. The curtains of the floor-to-ceiling windows fluttered in the wind, scattering dappled golden rays that slipped into the dark room and only added to the emptiness and chill instead of warming it.
From the floor, a painful murmur resonated, less saccharine than a delicate woman’s whisper.
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
“Mom, be careful….”
On the large bed covered in black sheets and a brocade quilt, traces of the ore’s restless tossing wrinkled the once smooth sheets. In his dream, his forehead was covered in fine beads of sweat, and his long, white hand tightly clung to the quilt.
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
“Don’t go…Mom….”
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
“Don’t leave me…”
After an unknowable amount of time, the dream ended. The person woke up, his ten fingers whitening from gripping the bed sheet, slowly opening his tightly shut eyes.
What kind of eyes are these, almost indescribable by words or brush strokes. Eyes containing countless stars, shimmering like the smooth surface of a lake, carrying confusion and an underlying, lingering sadness and melancholy, as if bearing witness to bone-chilling despair and the ravages of time.

The diffused light filtering through the curtains indicated to Jeon Jungkook that it was already dawn. His disheveled hair, damp with sweat, stuck to his glowing skin, framing his face with an air of decadent beauty.
His right hand slowly lifted, covering his forehead. Through the gaps between his fingers, his eyes gazed hollowly at the ceiling, giving no hint of his thoughts.
A good while later, he sluggishly sat up, leaning against the bed, his gaze drifting to the floor-to-ceiling window across from him. Unconsciously, a gloss coated his eyes as a complex mix of emotions tossed incessantly within his chest.
Well, it was the same dream again!
This damned nightmare was as vivid as always…
Removing the quilt, Jungkook climbed out of the bed, selected a casual outfit from the wardrobe, and with slow steps headed towards the bathroom.
Jungkook looked at himself in the mirror, closed his eyes swiftly, then reopened them after a few seconds. The hurt and emptiness in his eyes were swept away, his eyes relaxed, and a subtle smile graced his rosy lips. Indifferent, aloof, as if a mask was put on!
Quickly freshening up and changing into a black casual outfit, Jungkook leisurely walked out. Halting in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, Jungkook reached out for the curtain. The sound of the curtain being drawn was exceptionally clear in the quiet room.
Jungkook released the curtain, stepping out onto the balcony. Overlooking the numerous rosebushes filling his vision, the lingering scent of roses seemed to soothe his restless heart.
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
💭Well, the roses are blooming again, huh!
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
💭Mummy, you find them beautiful too, right?
A gentle breeze tousled his hair, his thoughts began to drift. The piercing collision noises, the eye-ravaging redness, the brittle voice of a dying woman, they all seemed to replay right before his eyes, as clear as day, as heartrendingly painful.
The faint sound of footsteps echoed from behind. Submerged in his thoughts, Jungkook’s eyes flickered, a gentle curve tugged at the corner of his lips. However, this smile carried a warmth that was not present earlier, with no trace of falsity.
An unexpected darkness before his eyes, he felt a warm hand. Without needing to guess, Jungkook knew exactly who it was. A light laugh escaped his lips.
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
“Yueyue, why didn’t you notify me earlier about your arrival?”
The person behind him heard the ore’s words and, with a hint of amusement on his cherry-red lips, obediently let go of his hand.
Jeon Ziyu/Kook
Jeon Ziyu/Kook's Twin
“Hyung, I’ve told you not to call me ‘yueyue’. It sounds like a girl’s name.”
Standing next to Jungkook, the man with a height of 1.80 metres was slightly taller than him by five centimetres, spasmodically brushed his random chestnut-brown hair. The top two buttons of his white shirt were unfastened, revealing his gracefully delicate neck.
His fresh smooth skin, painterly eyebrows and eyes, and his features—resembling Jungkook by six parts—revealed a tenderness and elegance that drew anyone in his vicinity in effortlessly.
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
Jungkook looked tenderly at the man next to him, disregarded his protest, “Yueyue, where are Bai Jue and Tian Xuning?”
He remembered that his younger brother and the other two had gone to France not too long ago.
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
💭Why did they run back so soon this time?
Though he disagreed with the nickname, he had gotten used to the name he had been called since childhood.
Jeon Ziyu/Kook
Jeon Ziyu/Kook's Twin
With arms crossed, leaning against the railing, ziyu said, “Tian returned to the Fortress. Don’t know where Bai Jue has run off to this time.”
Of the three, Bai Jue most enjoyed trotting all over the world. If they didn’t have a unique way to contact each other, trying to find him would be more difficult than attempting to scale a skyscraper.
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
A flicker of expectancy passed through Jungkook’s face. 💭That Bai Jue really is…
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
“Have you seen Grandpa yet?”
Speaking of Grandpa, a touch of softness could be traced in the depths of Jungkook’s eyes.
Jeon Ziyu/Kook
Jeon Ziyu/Kook's Twin
Ziyu obediently nodded, “Hmm, I just had breakfast with Grandpa.”
Jungkook squinted his eyes, looking up at the azure sky, while Ziyu silently kept him company. The atmosphere took on an undisturbed calmness.
Jeon Ziyu/Kook
Jeon Ziyu/Kook's Twin
After a while, Ziyu couldn’t resist asking, “Hyung, are you going back to capital?”
Jeon Ziyu/Kook
Jeon Ziyu/Kook's Twin
💭If Grandpa hadn’t unintentionally let it slip during breakfast, would he plan to leave him alone and face that bl*ody past alone?
Jeon Ziyu/Kook
Jeon Ziyu/Kook's Twin
💭He couldn’t let go of what happened seventeen years ago, let alone his elder brother. The incident from seventeen years ago became a demon within both of their hearts.
Jungkook maintained a calm façade, not surprised that he had already known about his secret. Thinking about it, he also knew who had told him.
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
💭It seemed that Grandpa still could not dissuade me from returning to capital and used Ziyu to persuade hme.
Jeon Ziyu/Kook
Jeon Ziyu/Kook's Twin
Seeing Jungkook remain silent, an impatient Ziyu, fixed his gaze on him, “Hyung, are you planning on leaving me here and returning to capital alone?”
Capital was full of danger. The group of wolves and tigers viewed both of them as thorns in their eyes. There was no way he was going to let his elder brother go back on his own.
Jungkook turned to look at him, seeing a touch of blush stain his fair face due to anxiety, a smile curved on his lips, as he pinched his cheek.
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
“Why are you so agitated? How could I abandon such a cute little brother like you, right?”
Used to Jungkook’s behavior, Ziyu looked into his deep eyes, but failed to understand his thoughts.
Though they were twin siblings, he couldn’t predict what his elder brother really felt.
Jeon Ziyu/Kook
Jeon Ziyu/Kook's Twin
“Hyung, I’m serious, what are you thinking in your heart?”
Since he couldn’t gauge out what his brother was thinking, it was better to directly ask him rather than wasting his thoughts over it.
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
Jungkook pulled back his hand, his gaze was as calm as ever, “Yueyue, it’s time to settle the scores that we have endured for the past seventeen years.”
Leaving them alone doesn’t mean that he has already forgotten everything. The painfully intense agony that has tortured both his and Ziyu for seventeen years, how could he forget? It’s time for those miscreants to reap what they have sowed.
As expected, Ziyu felt a jolt inside his heart, his eyes were a little scattered, but he eventually regained his senses. His gaze fell upon the brightly blossoming roses in the distance.
Jeon Ziyu/Kook
Jeon Ziyu/Kook's Twin
💭Yes, it’s been seventeen years, already such a long time.
They should start clearing those debts one by one.
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
Before he could even speak, Jungkook’s voice resounded once again, “Yueyue, you stay here for now. I will return to Capital alone.”
Jeon Ziyu/Kook
Jeon Ziyu/Kook's Twin
At his words, Ziyu instantly lifted his head to look at Jungkook, the traces of laughter near the corner of his mouth vanished, “Hyung, you promised you wouldn’t leave me and we had agreed to get back what belongs to Mommy together.”
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
Jungkook raised his eyes to meet his, connecting with his stubborn and anxious expression. His lips slowly pulled upwards, "Yueyue, I’m only asking you not to return to Capital just yet. I am not abandoning you. Don’t worry, I won’t forget what we’ve agreed upon.”
He wouldn’t stop him if he wanted to settle accounts. However, for some who were excessively loathsome and sordid, he didn’t want him to encounter too many of them.
Jeon Ziyu/Kook
Jeon Ziyu/Kook's Twin
Facing Jungkook's words, Ziyu always had an implicit faith. He moved a step closer to him, “Hyung, when can I come to capital to find you?”
He wouldn’t let him go, so he promised him. However, he couldn’t take too long, or else he would sneak off to capital.
Taking a glance at his soft, chestnut-brown hair, Jungkook lifted his hand and gestured for him to lower his height.
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
💭Man, the difference in height was really annoying!
Ziyu looked at him, a little puzzled, but still bent his waist slightly. Jungkook’s slender hand landed on top of his head. He messed up his hair, turning the originally soft strands into a bird’s nest.
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
“Yueyue, remember to listen to your big brother, otherwise….”
Jungkook saw through his little thoughts instantly, causing Ziyu to roll his eyes helplessly.
Jeon Ziyu/Kook
Jeon Ziyu/Kook's Twin
💭Ah, having such a cunning brother, i was quite distressed.
As for others, Ziyu was fearless. Even his Grandpa’s authority was occasionally put to the test, but in front of Jungkook, the tiny tiger instantly turned back into a kitten. Grandpa Jeon was well aware of this and often used Jungkook to scare Ziyu.

Jeon Ziyu/Kook
Jeon Ziyu/Kook's Twin
“Hyung, you haven’t answered my question.” Ziyu lets Jungkook mess up his hair, bending down compliantly without moving, his “brother-obsessed” traits clearly showing.
Jungkook gazes contentedly at his head of hair, which now looks like a chicken coop. The untidy strands lend a touch of wildness to his gentle, handsome face.
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
He withdraws his hand to his side, “Well, I’m not sure yet, but you won’t have to wait long.”
His ambiguous words make Ziyu frown. Seeing that he clearly doesn’t intend to say more, he swallows the additional questions he had intended to ask.
Never mind, He doesn’t have to worry too much about his brother’s mischievous nature. After all, he hasn’t seen anyone who could take advantage of him, not even sly characters like Bai Jue and Tian. Even they would not dare to offend his brother. The people in capital surely can’t be worse than Bai Jue and Tian.
Jeon Ziyu/Kook
Jeon Ziyu/Kook's Twin
“Hyung, when are you leaving?”
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
“Tomorrow.”
Jeon Ziyu/Kook
Jeon Ziyu/Kook's Twin
“Have you told Grandpa?”
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
“Not yet, come with me to tell him.”
With that, Jungkook turns and heads towards the door, with Ziyu following closely behind him.
“Tick–tock–tock.”
In the grand sitting room, the ticking of the pendulum is particularly clear, making the room seem even more empty.
Downstairs, there is not a single person in the sitting room. Ziyu frowns.
Jeon Ziyu/Kook
Jeon Ziyu/Kook's Twin
💭Wasn’t my grandpa usually sipping tea and reading the newspaper in here at this time?
Just as he is about to go and find someone, an middle-aged man walks in. His sturdy build and steady steps immediately give away his disciplined background.
Uncle Qin
Uncle Qin
“Young Masters!”
Uncle Qin is a trusted confidant of Grandpa Jeon. He helps manage the day-to-day affairs of the manor. Jungkook and Ziyu both grew up under his watch, and the siblings are quite close to him.
Jeon Ziyu/Kook
Jeon Ziyu/Kook's Twin
“Uncle Qin, where is Grandpa?” He asks cheerfully.
Uncle Qin
Uncle Qin
“He’s in the study. He’s been waiting for both of you, hurry over,” Uncle Qin replies with his square face full of paternal affection.
Jungkook nods, takes Ziyu’s hand and they leave together.
The door to the study is not closed. Ziyu slips in first, only to stop at the sound of a strong and amused voice.
Jeon Deok-Hwa/Grandpa Jeon
Jeon Deok-Hwa/Grandpa Jeon
“Yueyue, what are you sneaking around for?”
Ziyu halts, then struts in with exaggerated swagger. Looking at the figure seated on the sofa with its back to him, he raises an eyebrow.
Jeon Ziyu/Kook
Jeon Ziyu/Kook's Twin
“Grandpa, how did you know it was me who came in?”
Jeon Ziyu/Kook
Jeon Ziyu/Kook's Twin
💭He hadn’t even seen me yet, but named me directly. Why didn’t he assume it was my Hyung?
Jeon Ziyu/Kook
Jeon Ziyu/Kook's Twin
💭Do his Hyung and grandpa both have some kind of special ability?
Grandpa Jeon folds the newspaper and casually places it aside. Looking at his grandson who just sat down across him, he can’t help but let out a hearty laugh.
Jeon Deok-Hwa/Grandpa Jeon
Jeon Deok-Hwa/Grandpa Jeon
“Little Kook wouldn’t be as bored as you.”
No one else but him would keep playing this game after being called out so many times.
The elder man sits straight on the sofa in his plain clothes. The defined features of his face hint at his handsome youth. The wrinkles on his face mark the passage of time. He wears a pair of glasses on his high cheekbones, giving him an air of kind gentleness and scholars’ elegance.
Who would ever think the kind and elegant old man before them was once the mafia boss who once rocked M country.
Jeon Ziyu/Kook
Jeon Ziyu/Kook's Twin
Ziyu huffs, “Grandpa, you’re biased!”
Jeon Deok-Hwa/Grandpa Jeon
Jeon Deok-Hwa/Grandpa Jeon
Grandpa Jeon laughs heartily, the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes involuntarily revealing themselves, “If I don’t favor Little Kook, who else should I favor?”
Jeon Deok-Hwa/Grandpa Jeon
Jeon Deok-Hwa/Grandpa Jeon
💭My Little Kook deserves to be cherished and adored.
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
Jungkook, who has just entered, hears his grandpa and brother’s conversation, shakes his head and chuckles softly, calling gently, “Grandpa!”
Jeon Deok-Hwa/Grandpa Jeon
Jeon Deok-Hwa/Grandpa Jeon
“Little Kook, come sit over here.” He pats the seat next to him, laughing kindly.
Jungkook settles down beside Grandpa, crossing his legs, his body as soft as if it had no bones, comfortably nestled in the sofa.
Only in front of his grandpa would he show such defenseless behavior. Ziyu smirks.
Perhaps reminded by something, Grandpa Jeon looks at Ziyu without leaving a trace. Meeting his grandpa’s gaze, Ziyu shrugs helplessly.
Jeon Ziyu/Kook
Jeon Ziyu/Kook's Twin
💭I couldn’t do anything about it. If their grandpa couldn’t persuade him, I was doomed.
Grandpa Jeon snorts looking at Ziyu, but in reality, he had expected this situation. He shifts his gaze to Jungkook.
Jeon Deok-Hwa/Grandpa Jeon
Jeon Deok-Hwa/Grandpa Jeon
He sighs lightly, “Little Kook, take care of yourself in Capital. If you feel aggrieved, tell Grandpa and I will back you up.”
Since he could not stop him, he would do everything in his power to protect him.
Jeon Ziyu/Kook
Jeon Ziyu/Kook's Twin
💭Yes, my Hyung is cuter this way.
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
Jungkook tilted his head and laughed with affection, answering his grandfather’s soft gaze, “Hmm.”
Grandpa Jeon lifted a hand to pat the top of his head, their harmonious interaction reminiscent of a typical grandfather and grandson duo.
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
Sitting up straight, Jungkook affectionately rested his head on his grandfather’s shoulder, wrapping his arm around his, “Grandpa, you must also take care of yourself. I’ll be back soon.”
Jeon Deok-Hwa/Grandpa Jeon
Jeon Deok-Hwa/Grandpa Jeon
“Alright".
Looking unintentionally at the silver hair at his temples, Jungkook suddenly felt a pang in his heart. Grandpa was getting old, really old.
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
“Grandpa, while I’m not here, don’t sneak drinks. I’ll have Uncle Qin keep watch on you.” Keeping his melancholy feelings aside, Jungkook advised him, his eyes gleaming humorously.
Despite the old man looking hale and hearty, the effects of his excessive drinking in his youth were now starting to show. Bai Jue had more than once told him to limit his alcohol intake, but the old man, who had enjoyed drinking for more than half his life, found it hard to give it up completely. Whenever Jungkook and Ziyu weren’t home, he found his way to the cellar to sneak a few sips, only to be busted by Uncle Qin each time.
Jeon Deok-Hwa/Grandpa Jeon
Jeon Deok-Hwa/Grandpa Jeon
A hint of embarrassment flickered in Grandpa Jeon’s eyes as he lamely agreed with a laugh, “Got it, you cheeky one!”
Watching their grandfather sheepishly eat his words, Ziyu couldn’t help but laugh, reveling in his misfortune.
Jungkook let out a cunning laugh and snuggled up to his grandfather, planting a kiss on his cheek.
Caught off guard, the old man chuckled merrily, his earlier gloom disappearing instantly, leaving a joyful aura around him.
Jeon Deok-Hwa/Grandpa Jeon
Jeon Deok-Hwa/Grandpa Jeon
“Hahaha!”
Jeon Ziyu/Kook
Jeon Ziyu/Kook's Twin
Ziyu, who witnessed Jungkook’s affectionate moment with their grandfather, was now envious and complained loudly, “Hyung, you’re too biased towards Grandpa.”
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
“Want me to give you a kiss too?” Jungkook arched his eyebrows and teased.
Jeon Ziyu/Kook
Jeon Ziyu/Kook's Twin
💭Certainly!
Ziyu’s eyes lit up as he moved closer. Just as he was about to offer his face, a well-calloused hand brushed him aside.
Jeon Deok-Hwa/Grandpa Jeon
Jeon Deok-Hwa/Grandpa Jeon
“Off you go, how can a grown-up still act like this.”
Jeon Deok-Hwa/Grandpa Jeon
Jeon Deok-Hwa/Grandpa Jeon
💭His sweetheart, Little Kook, could only kiss him – not this meddling kid.
Jeon Ziyu/Kook
Jeon Ziyu/Kook's Twin
Ziyu twitched his lips at the sneering tone of the old man – 💭maybe his age made him believe he himself was still young?
Jeon Ziyu/Kook
Jeon Ziyu/Kook's Twin
💭They were clearly hogging the affection, how audacious!
Even though he believed in respecting his elders and caring for the younger ones, this behavior was unbearable. He began to argue with his Grandpa.
Jungkook, nestled comfortably on the couch, watched peacefully as Ziyu argued with Grandfather. A radiant smile lit his eyes, his gaze drifted out the window, seemed as though it could pass through the sky to reach Capital.
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
💭Ah, Capital! I'm coming!!
....
The summers in Capital approach unusually quickly. After a heavy downpour, the sweltering sun instills irritability in everyone.
The airport was teeming with people coming and going, playing out scenes of departures and reunions filled with both tears and laughter. Every day, accompanied by the sweet voice announcing over the speakers, planes take off and land one after the other.
Stepping off the plane and out of the airport, he was greeted by the unfamiliarity of this foreign land. Jungkook hid most of his stunning face behind a large pair of sunglasses to keep his identity undisclosed. Dressed in a black shirt, jeans, and sneakers, hia casual attire couldn’t conceal the nobility in his demeanor.
NovelToon
Without any signs of luggage, carrying just a black backpack, he appeared to travel lightly. His bulky suitcases had been taken care of by his grandfather’s staff yesterday. Hence, Jungkook just hopped onto the plane with his backpack.
After texting his grandfather he arrived safely, Jungkook took out a duck-billed cap from his backpack, casually placing it on his head before hailing a taxi outside the airport.
Despite the vast crowds at the airport every day, taxis are readily available, especially during the day. Within a few minutes, Jungkook had already hopped into a taxi.
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
“Take me to Bangtan!” Jungkook announced his destination before turning his gaze to the window.
The driver looked curiously at the ore in the backseat –Bangtan was home to the elites of Capital. What was this young ore doing there?
Considering it to be none of his business, the driver didn’t try to pry further and immediately hit the road.
The car sped along the streets, the sights outside quickly passing by. Uninterested in the changing landscape, Jungkook leaned back to rest his eyes.
Seventeen years since he last set foot in capital.
Returning to capital after seventeen years, he still struggled to find any affection for it!
When he opened his eyes again, glimpses of extravagant and exquisite villas could be seen through his car window, surrounded by lush gardens with scattered fragrant flowers, even perfuming the air with hints of floral scent.
The residence chosen by his grandfather was indeed excellent, a decision he approved.
In the blink of an eye, the taxi pulled over. Jungkook handed the driver a few banknotes from his bag, uttering thanks.
Taking the money, the driver realized he had paid extra. As he looked up to inform him, he found he was already too far away. Looking at the banknotes in his hand, he shook his head in resignation.
Oh well, anyone who could afford to live in this part of the town would not worry about such petty cash.
Considering it as a tip, the driver left the place cheerfully.
...
Based on the information he had gathered earlier, Jungkook quickly located his villa. The villas were distanced from one another providing ample privacy. He preferred the tranquility.
Looking at the code-lock at the entrance, without a second thought, he typed in some numbers. “Beep”, the gate opened.
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
💭Indeed, it was my birthday contraseña!
Opening the door, instead of entering immediately, he busied himself with the lock, the glint in his eyes revealing his expertise. The swift motion of his rounded and manicured fingertips was a sight to behold.
In no time, he retrieved his hand with a relaxed demeanor, slung the backpack on his shoulder and strolled in, closing the door behind him.
Admiring the interior for a bit, Jungkook proceeded upstairs. After an entire day sitting on a plane, he needed sleep.
After a refreshing shower, he let his hair air-dry and crashed into the bed. Pulling the blanket over him, he was ready to fall asleep.
As soon as his eyes closed, the familiar ringtone echoed. Squinting his eyes, he felt around for his phone by the bed, grabbing it and answering without checking.

📞“Hmm… I’ve arrived.”

📞“Kook, you went to Capital and didn’t even let us know. That’s not very considerate!” The man’s deep voice on the other end of the phone carried a hint of laughter.
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
Jungkook let out a small chuckle, 📞“Alright, how about if I take Yueyue with me? Would that be considerate enough?”
Tian Xuning/Jungkook
Tian Xuning/Jungkook's frd
The man on the other end of the phone was silent for a few seconds, then his tone turned somewhat hurt. 📞“Kook, it’s not fair when you always use yueyue to threaten me.”
Tian Xuning/Jungkook
Tian Xuning/Jungkook's frd
💭Does this mean our friendship can be so easily tossed aside?
Tian Xuning/Jungkook
Tian Xuning/Jungkook's frd
💭Oh, I surely didn’t make the right friends!
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
Jungkook scoffed,📞 “Really? Have I threatened you?”
The man on the other side of the phone seemed accustomed to this manner of conversation with Jungkook and swiftly shifted the topic back to the main subject.
Tian Xuning/Jungkook
Tian Xuning/Jungkook's frd
📞“Alright, Yueyue is worried about you. Take care of yourself and call us if anything happens.”
A warm feeling flooded Jungkook’s heart, a softness filled his eyes, he hummed in response before making a playful jab at the guy on the other end of the phone.
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
📞“I suppose yueyue hasn’t run off to your place again, has he?”
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
💭My innocent little brother was too easily fooled in front of that guy. As his brother, shouldn’t i give him a gentle reminder?
Tian Xuning/Jungkook
Tian Xuning/Jungkook's frd
The man chuckled awkwardly then said matter-of-factly, 📞“Not at all, I am over at your manor right now.”
Jungkook couldn’t deny it, and his sleepiness crept up. Without much conversation, he ended the call.
....
Over the next few days, Jungkook barely stepped outside. He ordered takeout for meals, and everything he needed was in the house, so he didn’t need to go out for shopping.
While lounging in the living room and playing with his computer, he glanced at the view outside the floor-to-ceiling window. An idea crossed his mind.
With such great weather, why not go out for a stroll?
Without further delay, Jungkook closed his laptop and put it aside, then went upstairs to change his clothes. Dressed in a casual black outfit and a duck-billed cap, he grabbed his vintage compact camera, put on a pair of canvas shoes, and headed out.
Bangtan, located at the outskirts and away from the bustling city, offered a beautiful, natural view and fresh air that lifted Jungkook’s spirits.
This was his first time venturing out after moving in. He leisurely strolled around, appearing blissfully carefree, much like a lazy Persian cat, casually snapping pictures of the surrounding scenery now and then.
Photography was one of his few hobbies. Now, he habitually carried his camera wherever he went.
He disliked certain people in capital, but he held no grudges against these beautiful sceneries.
When he reached the lotus pond, Jungkook stopped and clicked several pictures with his camera, a satisfied smile playing on his lips.
Holding the camera in one hand, Jungkook propped himself up on the railing in front of him, swinging his feet in the air. The sense of suspension was so comforting that he squinted his eyes, his curled lashes flickering enchantingly under the sunlight.

“Mr, please don’t seek death. If you have something to say, let’s talk. Don’t be so pessimistic.”
Just when Jungkook was about to doze off, a crisp voice resounded from behind, a puzzled expression crossing his face.
He turned around and saw several silhouettes in the glaring sunlight—two men and a ore. He looked around and didn’t find any other person, which made him realize they were referring to him.
Jungkook’s lips twitched, and he didn’t know whether to burst into laughter or tears.
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
Jeon Jungkook/Ore/ Elder Twin
💭That young ore sure let his imagination run wild!
Seeing Jungkook showing no intention to get off the railing, the ore from earlier panicked and rushed forward as if he was afraid Jungkook would jump off any moment.
Kim Minjae/Kim
Kim Minjae/Kim's 1st grandson
“Jimin!”
Kim Hoseok/Kim
Kim Hoseok/Kim's 2nd grandson
“Jimin!”
The two men who were with the ore hadn’t anticipated his sudden move and quickly yelled in alarm, anxiety lacing their voices.
Watching the hurried ore sprinting towards him, Jungkook felt a throbbing headache. If he collided with him at full force, Jungkook was sure he’d be knocked off the railing. At this moment, he strongly wondered if this ore was actually trying to m*rder him!
Kim Jimin/Ore/Youngest grandson
Kim Jimin/Ore/Youngest grandson
“Oh my God, help!”
Jimin moved too fast, combined with the slippery ground around the lotus pond. He couldn’t stop himself in time. His pretty little face lost color as his arms wildly flailed in the air.
Kim Jimin/Ore/Youngest grandson
Kim Jimin/Ore/Youngest grandson
“Ah…”
The two were about to crash when Jungkook, agile as a cat, caught hold of the ore’s collar and spun him around, thus saving him from the momentum that could have sent him straight into the lotus pool. He also saved himself from falling into the pool.
Kim Jimin/Ore/Youngest grandson
Kim Jimin/Ore/Youngest grandson
“Phew, that scared me to d*ath!” Jimin patted hus chest, murmuring with lingering fear.
Seeing that the ore was fine, the two men let out a sigh of relief. They exchanged surprised glances, then looked at Jungkook with a hint of amazement in their eyes.
Such nimble movements were not something that could be achieved without years of practice.
Unaware of their thoughts, Jungkook hopped off the railing, graceful as a gazelle, grabbed his camera, and was about to leave.
Kim Jimin/Ore/Youngest grandson
Kim Jimin/Ore/Youngest grandson
“Hey, wait!” Seeing Jungkook leaving, Jimin quickly blocked his path.
Kim Minjae/Kim
Kim Minjae/Kim's 1st grandson
“Minnie, stop fooling around.” A gentle voice rang out, filled with indulgence.
Kim Jimin/Ore/Youngest grandson

Jimin pouted, looking up at the man who had come up to him, “Big Brother, I wasn’t fooling around.”

💭I was clearly trying to save someone, okay?
Kim Jimin/Ore/Youngest grandson

💭Although…

💭Alright, I was the one being saved earlier.

Kim Minjae/Kim's 1st grandson
The man let out a light chuckle, flicked Jimin's forehead, then turned to address Jungkook, “Apologies, Mr. My younger brother misunderstood that you were s*icidal, which led to him reckless behavior. We hope you don’t mind.”
The ore’s indifferent demeanor intrigued him. His every move had a certain finesse to it, clearly a result of long-term cultivation. ore of such bearing wouldn’t contemplate s*icide, it was clear that his brother had made a big blunder.

Jungkook shook his head casually, pulling his cap lower, “It’s okay. Since I have things to do, I will take my leave now.”
Anyone who had access to Bangtan must possess significant power and influence in capital. And he didn’t want to entangle himself with them in any way.
Trouble was the last thing he needed!

Recognizing Jungkook’s aloof disposition, Jimin didn’t lose heart. A brilliant smile lit up his face, “Hello, thank you for saving me earlier. I believe that a great kindness deserves endless gratitude, so how about we become friends?”
Although he couldn’t clearly see the ore’s face, he felt inexplicably fond of him.

“My name is Kim Jimin. This is my older brother, Kim Minjae, and my second brother, Kim Hoseok.”
Upon finishing, Jimin looked at Jungkook with twinkling eyes, awaiting his response.
Although Jungkook had been in capital for only a few days, he had heard about the three super aristocratic families in the city. Among them, the Kim family held the top position, followed by the Cha family and the Lee family.
Almost every household in capital knew about the Kim family, and the saying ‘Kim family products are always of excellent quality’ was commonly heard. He wondered if he had just stumbled upon a lucky encounter by meeting the Kim family members on his first outing.
Jungkook partially lowered his eyes, showing no intention of engaging in further conversation.

He acknowledged them with a nod, maintaining his distant demeanor, “Sorry, I have things to attend to. I need to leave.”

Jimin frowned slightly, but still cheerfully smiled, “Wait, you haven’t told me your name yet.”
His intuition told him, that this person before him was nothing short of extraordinary. With the hints he showed, many interesting things should happen around him.

Jungkook eyed the people close to him and subtly stepped back, looking aloof, “No need, we’re simply passing ships in the night.”
Minjae and Hobi shared a glance, silently observing Jungkook.

Jimin persevered, “But hey, meeting is fate, why not at least tell me your family name?”
Jungkook lifted his hand to press down on his hat, which was slightly lifted by the wind, and remained silent.

Catching a glimpse of the hat on Jungkook’s head, Jimin’s eyes instantly brightened up, “Oh, this is designed by March!”
March, a genius jewelry and clothing designer, who had suddenly emerged four years ago. Any item designed by March would stir up discussions and enthusiasm, and over the years, March had become an international top designer. However, March would not mass-produce designs, so purchasing a March design required more than just money.
Don’t ask how Jimin identified this as a March design. Those who’ve bought March’s products knew that March’s designs were embroidered with the letters “JY” using a special kind of thread which was impossible to imitate.
He had just recently seen this hat in a magazine, knowing it was limited to ten worldwide. He hadn’t expected to see one so soon.
Both Minjae and Hobi knew about March. Now their curiosity about Jungkook was even deeper.

💭Buying March goods wasn’t easy even for the wealthy. Who exactly was he?

Jungkook pinched the brim of his hat, a hint of resignation flashing through his eyes. 💭How troublesome!
Facing Jimin’s enthusiastic stare, Jungkook suddenly thought of his younger brother asking for his help.

After a moment’s silence, he finally spoke, “You like this hat?”

“Uh huh!” Jimin enthusiastically nodded.
He absolutely loved it, it was a design by the great March!

Jungkook’s eyes blinked, “Here, take the hat, but leave me alone.”
Hearing this, Jimin hesitated for a moment, appearing conflicted, but then quickly nodded.

💭See? Wasn’t i clever? I got a designer hat by March and could also find out this person’s name. It was like killing two birds with one stone.
Jungkook removed his hat, revealing his exquisite and beautiful face under the sunlight. Among his features, the most attractive was a mole under his lips adding an element of posh elegance to his appearance.

“Wow–” Jimin gasped in awe. The brothers were also slightly stunned.
Although all Kim family members were handsome and beautiful, they had to admit, the ore before them was extremely beautiful. In their minds, only one person could compare with his beauty.
Jungkook seemingly ignored their surprise. He handed the hat to Jimin, then turned and left, not giving them a chance to react.

“Hobi, he is not an ordinary person!” He commented.

Hoseok watched Jungkook’s receding figure and nodded, “Hmm, but I don’t remember ever seeing him in capital.”
Such a stunning beauty would definitely attract attention if seen in Capital.
Jimin’s reaction was somewhat delayed, by the time he came around, Jungkook had already disappeared. He suddenly looked at Minjae and Hoseok .

“He left long ago.”

“Oh no, why did he leave so soon?” Jimin stomped his foot, murmuring annoyingly.

Hobi took a glance at him then at the hat in his hand, “You’ve taken his hat, you can’t force him to stay?”
That ore obviously knew they were the Kim family but had zero interest in them. It’s clear he didn’t want any relationship with them. It wouldn’t be good if they annoyed him.

Jimin looked at the hat and giggled awkwardly, “This is a March design!”
He was so lucky today, meeting a beautiful person and getting a March-designed hat for free. He was over the moon!

“Brother, do you think he lives in Bangtan?” Jimin asked Minjae curiously.
Bantan was owned by their third brother. Their oldest brother should know something.

He shrugged, analyzing, “There’s a good chance. Except for Bangtan residents, nobody else can enter. And judging by his casual clothing, he probably lives nearby.”

Jimin was delighted, “That’s awesome! I’ll ask our third brother later.”

Hobi looked at his obviously happy brother, messed up his hair, “Let’s get going. Don’t forget we’re here to fetch our third brother. Our grandpa has given us the order.”

When reminded of this, Jimin’s smile froze momentarily. 💭Oh right, their grandfather had sent them here, i almost forgot.
Thinking of their grandpa’s thunderous and gloomy face, Jimin shivered, quickly picking up his pace to keep up with his brothers.
