From Sidekick To Bigshot (S1) C5: Male Lead Is Hit Private Tutor

Bo-gum continued to talk to Taehyung.

Kim Bo-gum

Take a week of leave from school and reflect on what you did. Do you hear me?

The way he dealt with things was more swift and decisive than their father.

Taehyung nodded and agreed firmly.

Resting at home for a few days was also good for him.

When this happened in the original novel, Bo-gum had also treated Taehyung harshly.

However, it was not because Bo-gum didn’t want to recognize this brother of his. But rather, it was because he was his younger brother, Bo-gum had to be strict with him. He wished for his young brother to become a better person.

As Bo-gum was the eldest, he rather treasured his younger brother.

And because he had high hopes, he appeared to be so strict.

However, Taehyung had failed to notice the intentions of his elder brother. Rather, due to Bo-gum’s attitude, their relationship became tenser and tenser.

Neither of these two would directly reveal their true feelings. One is introverted whilst the other is rebellious.

Neither of them would admit defeat which led to misunderstandings and eventually, the dislike of one another.

And in the end, Bo-gum lost his brother completely. He transferred the affection he had for his brother onto the mature, sensible and understanding female lead, Mo Shiyun. Later on, he was a great help to Mo Shiyun.

After reaching home, Namjoon and Bo-gum both had things to deal with so they both went to their respective rooms.

Taehyung didn’t immediately go back to his room. Rather, he went to his second brother’s study room in an attempt to find a microscope.

Every child of the Kim family had their own study room. The second brother of the Kim family was currently studying biology overseas.

To facilitate his studies and research, the second brother of the Kim family had set up a small laboratory that included several microscopes.

Among them, there was one that was used for medicine. It was extremely valuable and ordinary people would definitely not have such equipment in the house.

Of course, there remained a gap between this microscope and the one which was used for surgery. However, for now, this was sufficient enough for Taehyung to practice with.

As it was very troublesome to carry the microscope, Taehyung simply decided to stay in his second brother’s laboratory to practice operation exercises.

Taehyung’s first experiment items were eggs that he took from the kitchen. He stitched together the membrane of the egg surface.

After damaging a few eggs, Taehyung went to the kitchen again and this time he took a pig’s foot to experiment with.

Other than staying in his second brother’s study room, Taehyung spent the remainder of his time surfing the internet. He typed furiously on his keyboard and appeared to be very busy.

Whilst Taehyung was concentrating and being busy, the Kim family welcomed a special person. Seventeen-year-old Jung Hae-in.

He was the male lead for the original novel.

In the original novel, the male lead’s mother was the first love of the head of the richest and most powerful family of Beijing. It was after they broke up that the mother realized that she was pregnant.

Later, she gave birth to the male lead and raised him by herself. The life of the mother and son was quite difficult. However, the male lead worked very hard and relied on himself to achieve great heights.

At this time, Jung Hae-in did not know that he was the illegitimate child of the aristocrats. He also did not know that he would become the leader of the aristocrats in the future.

The reason why he appeared at the Kim family right now was that he got a well-paid job from Bo-gum. The pay for this job could help him solve the problem with his tuition fees.

The details of this job asked him to be Taehyung’s private tutor. While tutoring Taehyung’s studies, the most important thing was to teach Taehyung how to become a better person or to ‘turn over a new leaf’.

In the original novel, Jung Hae-in became Taehyung’s private tutor.

With an outstanding appearance and a patient way of teaching, he became a beacon of light to Taehyung who felt as though he was distrusted by his family and betrayed by the rest of the world.
