### Summary
The relationship between Kowloon pharmacist Weijing and the mysterious Liuwi Jiang continues to be defined by a volatile mix of intimacy and peril. Following a flashback to his abusive childhood, Weijing has developed a cynical view of love, explicitly rejecting the label for his complex bond with Liuwi, even as their dynamic sometimes resembles that of a married couple. The previous chapter's intimate moment, which some readers saw as a romantic milestone, was heavily overshadowed by a pervasive sense of anxiety and foreshadowing, with a specific fear that their clandestine interaction would be discovered. The latest reader comments confirm this dread has been realized in a shocking cliffhanger. An unidentified antagonist has abruptly interrupted the pair, an event described by readers as a "jumpscare" that has left them terrified. The hostile nature of the interruption, met with comments like "Don't shot them" and "you greedy asshole," confirms that the characters' brief moment of connection has placed them in immediate, critical danger, leaving the audience in a state of extreme suspense.
