Blondie was the one who challenged Taegu with mind games then he's the one who ends up showing his jealousy.
Also, from their conversation, I'm glad Mr. gangster is there for the mc during one of the roughest parts of his life back when he was younger. I really hope Taegu will remain an older brother figure for the mc, not a second love interest.
Outburst was valid but I'm with the mc on this. His past relationship obviously did a number on him, which made him self-blaming. Also, back in the old chapters, you can see how terrified he was when the love interest fell with him in the ravine and blamed himself too hard, thinking he might be the reason why the love interest might have to quit. Pretty sure his reaction was connected to what he experienced in the past as well.
It obviously taken him a lot of courage to open up about his vulnerability in this chapter and it's sad that he was met with anger. To me, his confession about his worries was more focused on how his actions drove his ex away and might do the same to the love interest too, not compare how the love interest might potentially react like the way his ex reacted. It's like the mc and love interest are looking at different ends of the lens.
Idk man, I wish I was more eloquent to explain how my mind understood this chapter.
So does that mean the mcs father was killed simply because he saw through the grand prince's plans? Also, man... choosing the "lesser evil" often fails because most of these power-hungry politicians don't stay "lesser evil" for long as evidenced by real world events. Once they are given the power, their greediness wins, which pushes them to shed other people's blood for their own gain.











I can't take this chapter seriously when that cute purple monster is acting like that lmaoooo the way he's being all serious while the mcs and the adorable blondie were talking is so hilarious. And when he was just like >--|O after the love interest's outburst got me dying
When he crossed his arms it was just so hilarious
Yes! Truly funny and waaaay too cute!
