Damn, guy didn't even feel a shred of guilt as he asked for money...just throw him to the curb.
I'm so happy for them ( ToT)...!!!
I would like to add that Lucius looks so stunning all the time, I have to stop and stare for a minute before scrolling.
One of the rare stories where I can say "can't wait to see her die" and mean it in a positive vibe (￣∇￣")...
Y'all are spreading incorrect and skewed spoilers (T-T)lll... I finished the novel and I promise you, the story and Heejae is really not that dark or twisted. Please don't trust MTL. The series is very cute. My only complaint is it's too short.
1.) Nothing bad happens in this story, Heejae and Seyoung don't break up. They're a cat-dog couple so they have some minor misunderstandings here and there but nothing tragic happens.
2.) Heejae is kind of petty and childish, but he's not evil. He's younger than Seyoung and is still in his early 20s, he's truly just acting his age.
He was in love with Sesam but after being dumped and cut off for no reason, he goes to look for Seyoung, and sees him happy and smiling with his coworker. He's angry because even though Sesam chased after him, she's kind to everyone else except him. He also has a bit of past trauma with suddenly losing his loved ones. He doesn't understand Seyoung's behaviour and why he's being treated this way.
3.) Because he was bitter, /initially/ Heejae was planning to make Seyoung fall in love with him and then dump him for revenge but he quickly dropped that idea when he realized he fell in love with the real Seyoung. He realizes this in Ch 21 (after chasing Seyoung in the snow). Of course he's upset about his car, but he's far more scared of being hated by Seyoung. Heejae then decides he wants Seyoung to fall in love with him for real. He's not scheming to hurt Seyoung anymore. This dumbass gets the butterflies when Seyoung smiles.
The next few chapters in the raws is Heejae's POV arc (it's really long in the novel too), which is why he seems sus. It's not the case, it's a flashback explaining his thoughts. The novel covers it in more detail than the webtoon.
Heejae is an intense and expressive person with a lot of duality. He's always thinking and feeling different things at once. He can be both upset at Seyoung but also deeply smitten by him at the same time. He's also very romantic and plots a lot of dumb schemes just so he can have a date and hold hands with Seyoung, who he knows isn't very good with receiving affection or doing couple-y things. Heejae seems unhinged but it's more like "the end justifies the means" to him. Seyoung calls him a lunatic, but he's just really smart and achieves results. And he does, actually, always achieve results.
Seyoung does eventually like Heejae back but he's not yet comfortable with physical intimacy (yet). So even though he also likes Heejae, the guy is also too cringe for him sometimes (lol).
The one aspect I like about Heejae is that he's normally a rational person, but when it comes to Seyoung his IQ drops to -100 and he ends up doing carzy things. For example, he's not a foolish spender, but he's dropped down some serious cash in the spur of the moment on something just because he thought it'd make Seyoung happy.
--- Additional Spoilers ---
4.) Yoona is not deeply in love with Heejae, but she's prideful and just as petty, and wants to be the center of attention. She's also rich and invested a lot of money into ruining Heejae's Rumble Tumble clan out of revenge.
5.) The guild is accepting of Seyoung, and they later have a guild war against Yoona because she sniped up a ton of their members and is trying to rank #1.
(Seyoung's female bestie, is secretly a PVP ranker in the game and helps out.
She's a seriously cool gal.)
OH MY GOD THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SUMMARIZING ALL THISI WAS SERIOUSLY UPSET BC THE COMMENTS QERE THINKING HEEJAE IS EXTREMELY SUSPICIOUS AND THAT HE WANTS TO HURT SEYOUNG:(((( I haven't red the novel but already red the raws, and I can indeed say that DO NOT trust mtl
I love you pookie
Thank you for the spoiler!
ily
Thanks a lot <33
i love you for this fren
Thank you so much for clearing that up!! I could have waited for the later chapters but I really did not like how Heejae looked all angry and cold when he hugged real Seyoung in the earlier chapter. It made me truly believe he wanted nothing except revenge!!! But I’m glad we just need to look at ch 21 to see passed that and see Heejae changing! <3
Omg...these names. The author seriously likes boba, coffee, and tea.
(fair, me too---)
Tbf I've never met anyone who doesn't like boba, coffee, and tea
I’ve never tried boba and dislike both coffee and tea.
You're not real
But I am
I don't believe you
At least I know what boba is, unlike my cousin.
No... There's no way... Your cousin is an alien
That would be cool but no… just an average non-boba human who is obsessed with coffee
Well at least they like coffee
Actually, I'm guilty as charged... I don't like any of those. I prefer mineral water, juice, and well, infused water (￣∇￣)
Well damn, another alien
Ikr... Me too... Well I do like boba but on its own or with some other drink (like juice or smoothies or milkshakes). And I absolutely hate coffee, I even dislike tea unless it's lemon tea (surprisingly I don't hate lemon tea)
..............
......Last chance to look away.

Sorry, but the Duke is just a red-herring. He's not around for most of the story. Actually, I don't even know if you could really even consider him the 2nd ML with how uninvolved he is in the plot. But Lili and the Prince really do get way more development and he loves her way more than the Duke.
Heejae seems sorta but isn't actually a psycho. He has no qualms resorting to extreme means, but he's actually a very sly and calculating person, and eventually explains his thoughts actions thru his POV chapters, so look forward to it ^^) --- and yes, he's genuinely crazy in love with Seyoung. To the point it makes him do stupid things.
Awwwwww thank goodness I was scared he might actually be an actual psycho
do you have the novel chaps past 23
I checked out the raws just in-case but, the translation is a little off here (which is why it reads so strangely) and there and it could use proof-reading. Also I'm pretty sure it's meant to be Margrave and not Markgraf. Margrave is a title given to a prince.
Margrave and Markgraf are the same thing, You can always search it up if you're not convinced.
I see. From a (jp) speaker, I don't ever see markgraf used over margrave. But from a translation standpoint, it's just a little strange to see an origin spelling instead of the modern global, given that the other names or titles used the latter.
It's either a translation error or they deliberately used the German term instead of the English margrave or the French marquis, because of the settings or something like that. I'm good with either of them.
