Claims

Yuna tried to gather all of her courage, dropped her knees on the ground, and started sobbing.

"That man who is wearing a combination of green and blue clothes with a bandana in his head is trying to ditch me after he got my virginity!"

Rin just looked at Yuna with a confused expression and stood right next to her, not knowing what to do. The people in the market started to look at Yuna. She already got their attention with her 'hip and trendy' outfit, but when she shouted at even sobbed, more and more people got curious about her.

Yuna's sobs became more evident. She succeeded in making people gossip about Min and her.

"He had the guts to leave me in the air after all the things he did to me—" Yuna said in between her cries, and to make it more believable, she even shed tears.

She could finally see Min rushing to her as he squatted in front of her and held her wrists, guiding her to stand up. "Hey, stop that act and stand up."

But upon hearing Min's words, Yuna just ended up crying her heart out and said, "He just wanted me to stop crying! Boohoo."

Min closed his eyes and exhaled sharply. He could definitely feel his blood pressure rising because of Yuna. She had no choice because Min and Rin were the only people she knew in this unfamiliar place.

Securing a place to stay is the best thing to do for her. And Min was the answer for that.

Yuna decided to step up her game and made a strong lie again, "I even came from the land ruled by the Song Dynasty, pretended to be an envoy just to be toyed by him!" She continued in between her sobs, "How can I come back to where I came from? Uwaah,"

Everyone started to stare at Min like he really was the bad guy Yuna made him out to be.

'That young lady is so pitiful," A commoner observed.

"That young man has the guts to make a young lady from the land ruled by the Song Dynasty cry," A merchant said. "What if the people there would wage war into our country? What would happen to us?"

A smirk plastered on Yuna's face when she heard the people's opinion. Her acting was not too bad, and it seemed like they were in favor of her too. The acting classes she attended was DEFINITELY worth it.

Min leaned in to whisper in Yuna's ear and softly said, "I lose. You win; I will let you stay in our house for a night, young lady. Nothing more, nothing less. Okay?"

"Are you sure?"

"Yes,"

"You are not going to be a man if you break your promise, okay?"

"Okay,"

After the commotion Yuna created earlier, Min was quite in a bad mood, and Yuna could see it.

But she did not care at all. It was the least of the things she had to worry about. After spending a night at Min and Rin's house, she had to think about her next move.

How will she be able to come back to her world?

It seemed to her like she was transported back in time, and the trigger seemed to be that painting she saw in the library: the white tiger and the bamboo tree.

Now that she thought about it, the old lady who had a gold plated tiger pendant in her necklace seemed suspicious too. Could it be that she was the reason too?

Yuna knew how special the white tiger was. She remembered how magical it looked like in the painting made by an unknown artist. It was the same as the mythical creature she saw in the mountainous area.

Yes. The white tiger seemed to be the answer.

Does she have to find the white tiger and ask how she would come back to her world?

Yuna sighed deeply.

"Sister, do you have something troubling you?" Rin asked as she was holding Yuna's right hand. "Can you tell me? I might not be able to solve your problem, but maybe I can help you feel better!"

Rin did not fail to make Yuna smile.

How can this ten-year-old girl be so mature for her age? She just felt so happy that she coincidentally met Rin in the mountain. Her adorable chubby cheeks just made her want to pinch her.

"Thank you so much, Rin," Yuna replied with a smile.

"Are you trying to steal my younger sister?" Min asked, raising his brows. "You better not, okay?"

"I am so happy," Rin cheerfully said. "Sister, can you be my mother then?"

Yuna was surprised and did not expect what Rin said. Meanwhile, Min just furrowed his brows, and a crease appeared on his forehead.

"And I will be the father?" Min asked, but disgust was obviously written on his face.

"Oh my God," Those were the only words that came out of her mouth. She turned her head to the side and realized that Min was holding his younger sister's hand, and the three of them looked like a happy family.

"That's impossible, Rin," Yuna awkwardly laughed. "I am only nineteen years old; it's impossible for me to give birth to you."

"Sister, I know," Rin laughed, and Yuna just let Rin live in her fantasy. She realized that the young girl might not have shown it, but she must have craved for a typical family.

How happy could she have been to at least experience it now?

Yuna just patted Rin in the head and said, "You must have had it hard too."

After a series of conversations, Yuna, Rin, and Min finally arrived at their destination. It was Min and Rin's house. It was definitely far from the heart of the town and an hour and a half type of walk.

The house was made up of woods, simple but habitable. Min and Rin's mom could have been there but heard no one.

"Min,"

There was a faint sound coming from the inside, and they wasted no time entering the house.

It was something that the three of them did not expect to see.
