### Summary
This chapter resolves the previous cliffhanger's tension, confirming that Kang Junil acted honorably and did not take advantage of a drugged Han Nokyoung, a revelation met with widespread reader relief. The narrative pivots sharply from suspense to romantic comedy, focusing on the rapidly escalating and overtly flirtatious dynamic between the two leads. Junil, in a direct contradiction of his earlier claims that Nokyoung was not his type, now engages in smug, teasing advances that readers find both charming and amusing. Their interactions, often set in a gym where little exercise occurs, are characterized by a "frienemies" banter that highlights their growing chemistry. The chapter's central comedic set piece involves a classic rom-com trope: Nokyoung displays open jealousy towards a woman he assumes is Junil's date, only to face "second-hand embarrassment" when she is revealed to be his cousin. While readers express frustration over Nokyoung's continued naivete—such as his lack of a phone password and misguided fitness attempts—they are largely captivated by the couple's "cute" and "adorable" progression, firmly establishing a lighthearted tone for their budding relationship.
