I'm on chapter 67 and what I'm finding I like most about this story is that the men who are pursuing her thus far (i.e. Duke and Prince) are getting rejected but still still sick around. It shows that they truly live who she is as a person and even if they can't be with her, they still do nice things for her. Are the two men hoping for more? Sure. The point is though that they aren't /expecting/ anything in return. They hope their kindness will make her happy and if it woos her, all the better. There is nothing transactional about their relationships despite there literally have been transactions. They are just respecting business vs friend interactions. If it's business, it's a contract. As friends, they gift with no expectation of reciprocation.
Also Sirs? Where are your nipples? This is a manga/hwa/hua pandemic at this point!
Dear thieves: RETURN THE NIPPLES! (lol)
Most of my predictions are too far along in the plot to have been able to prove out or not but I did NOT see THAT coming. I mean as soon as he touched the bottle I knew it was likely he drank it but I didn't think for even a second that mc would sabotage himself for his assistant. I mean it is true to his character but it was his big plan. Someone that determined sadly usually wouldn't let that bother them. They would more likely just think “will I'm not going to be here anyway so who cares if I accidentally take someone else out so long as my target does and I die that's all that matters.” I mean I'm not personally like that. I'm a bit of a pushover and would have likely fallen in love with the guy who killed my family with the excuses of “is a political war he had no choice”, “I mean, at least he let my brother and me live” and“out was either them or him, he didn't have a choice.”
Oh yeah, absolutely. The author did a great job on this entire thing. Because I'm an author myself, it's not often I'm surprised and I'm always happy when it happens, assuming it's because the author is good at their job and not that there is a surprise that is really unlike what the character of story could ever hope to achieve.











That's not where the clitoris goes...
Also, anyone down for some power thrusts with their hotdogging? I think he's spinning to damage his dick and her pelvic bone as fast as humanly possible, only using each body part in the process.
This was adorable but no. That's not...just...no.
