So, imagine the plot twist,
SH saying NO lol
Like, he can read NK perfectly and knows what's going on, and refuses to engage if that's the reason. Though, being real, I don't think we can count on that actually happening, he's too horny and has NK's consent for the very first time, so yolo
5 more days!
Now imagine him saying yes. The previous chapter prepared us for the ''comfort scene''.. Both Nakyum and Seungho are hurting, the latter for years. I know it's better if SH refuses him but truthfully that's going to be too much of a dramatic character change:-
1. SH needs it just as much
2. It is already established that SH has been careful around Nakyum in the hope that Nakyum will relax around him and he can pursue a physical relationship with him.
3. SH refusing to bed the object of his obsession/desires wen offered on a platter? Really?
4. SH looks like he will do anything for Nakyum.
On the other hand SH is definitely smart and has a heart. There is the possibility that he wants more of Nakyum than a bed partner...and that he CAN actually wait. I am thinking of the red dot he put on him which symbolizes marriage and the pampering and kindness he has bestowed on him. If he does not sleep with him maybe he will comfort him by hugging him and sleep. (except that he we have already seen that scene so i'm not sure there will be a repeat)
So if he does refuse Nakyum I think it will be clear that he has more than a sexual interest in him and actually wants to nurture a lasting love. That he does not want Nakyum to come to him again because of that disgusting Sir. That's a shot at his pride too.
Will we see a romantic version of SH or SH giving in to temptation? ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭
Nice, great comment! I totally agree with the points you made. I'm so curious which way this is going to go now. I do think it's most likely SH will do as NK asks. There is also a reason why we saw redhair and we know he's making his way over there amd he could walk in on them or at least realise why he's not allowed to see SH at that moment. The story progresses and the tension is be growing, I wonder how many more chapters before shit hits the fan lol

Loved the cuddly scene!
Also, NK blushed feeling SH lower part close to him while they slept :) Now, we were suspecting that the medicine NK didn't want to take anymore, because it made him feel weird was some sort of aphrodisiac and that's why he was so easily aroused when touched earlier. But at this point in the night, I tink it would've been gone already, it's been a while since he took it in the evening. So, what I'm getting at is, he blushed not because of the medicine(most likely aphrodisiac) but because of feeling SH so close to him :) It's just.... nice
Or am I seeing things lol
He's not reacting this way with other men (inhun) around him since the beginning I never thought that the medicine was on purpose making him desired. I think since he was sick the medicine is too strong for his body and then he has more difficulties to resist his sexual desire and that's why he thinks it was because of the medicine but it's just that bc of his sickness he is more sensible to seungho. That's what I think
Oof, now that's interesting! I actually thought he was refusing it, but took it in the end, because of what the servant said (that it was expensive etc). But maybe he didn't take it and was feeling all that naturally. Could be, since he did have badum badum badum after he woke up in ch34. There's so many badums, he even wonders why he's feeling all that :) One thing is sure, and it's been made clear throughout the story already. Nakyum is gay, he loves erotic painting, he enjoys seeing man have sex and possibly experience it himself, but he repressed himself like crazy, almost to the point he can't let go. I'm not sure, but I have a feeling SH will play an important role in his life of that force that will set his sexuality free. Hopefully
I also think that Nakyum was attracted to SH for quite some time but first he was repressed thanks to Sir, also his feelings for Sir were stronger before and we are now seeing NK slowly taking Sir off the pedestal he put him on.
As for his attraction to SH which subtly comes through in the paintings as his focus is always SH and more obviously when he has that internal monologue during SH's last night with Jihwa in chap.15 where after catching his eye over and over again and remembering the other nobleman's comments about SH looking at NK, he tells himself not to delude himself that SH is looking at him. Like it bothered him that SH could not want him.
Spoiler. What's going on...??

Guys, I don't follow. There's few more raw chapters and I'm completely lost. Did anyone read it?
Is this really the end?? Or is it end of the season? This was supposed to be the last season, that's what author said in previous Q&A. Maybe she changed her mind. Because this would be such a weird and abrupt ending.
SPOILER

So, do you guys think Nakyum might once again lose his memory due to fever and being sick? Or maybe not lose, but not remember everything well?
Everything leading up to him getting sick seemed to have happend in the course of what, past 24h -ish from the moment they had finished having sex. The violent scene in the pavilon, bath, chasing after Seungho with the sword, blowjob, running away in the morning, coming back and having sex till night or early morning next day. I wouldn't be surprised if he had hard times remembering all that, since it happened in the short amount of time, and, though very traumatic, coulde seem more like a dream/nightmare to him now.
So, could it be that Seungho might use that as an opportunity, kind of like a second chance, to approach him in a different manner, now that he seemes to possibly have some reflection over his behaviour? And it's not like I think it will be all love and butterflies now, nah :)) I'm thinking more like, he saw that his actions were troublesome and problematic long term, so he has to reconsider, if he wants to keep Nakyum for himself longer. There's still room for romantic developement, it's yaoi after all, but I'm looking at it from his selfish and entitled point of view for now.
Also, you know how old servant asked for some medicine for himself (if the fan translation were correct)? I'm thinking what he might use it for. Add it to Seungho's water to make him sleep, so he wouldn't hurt Nakyum? Or maybe that's just something extra to help Nakyum heal better/faster? Interesting
That sounds like some redemption arc, and I’m in on it. I’d prefer if he loses his memory while running away from Sunghoe
This is just my little add on to your theory: Sunghoe keeps raping NK until the teacher finds out and for some reason gets killed because of it (I just want him gone tbh). NK runs for his life, goes into the woods, he trips and hits his head in some sort of rock. Sunghoe finds him bleeding from his head, carries him back to the villa. He treats his injury while he’s in a coma, then weeks later, NK wakes up and has amnesia. Surprised, Sunghoe leaves him in the room and realizes it was the perfect opportunity to make NK love him. He starts treating him gently, after lying that their lovers of course. We see a lot of lovey dovey shit, and when things are about to reach a happy ending BOOM ! Jiwha comes back to remind NK about what really happened, Sunghoe tries to fix it but is too late. NK kills himself... THE END
Sup guys, is there a new raw chapter today? Or has something changed?
New Chapter 42 raw was uploaded to lezhib today
Awesome, thanks!
