### Summary
The narrative continues to deliberately delay the formal meeting between Bayan and Emperor Dhan, significantly amplifying reader impatience. This chapter shifts focus to Bayan, who awakens after sleeping for three days—a recurring pattern now connected to her bloodletting. Her internal monologue provides a source of great humor for readers, as she recalls the violent first encounter where she "bashed his head in with a rock" after he bit her. The maid, Suyeon, emerges as a pivotal and beloved character, praised for her loyalty as she actively obstructs an official to protect Bayan, a treasonous act that has won her immense respect from the audience. The dynamic between the two is a highlight, with readers enjoying Suyeon's terrified but steadfast reaction to learning what Bayan did to the emperor. Despite the comedic relief, the dominant reader sentiment is frustration with the "dragging" plot and "too short" chapters. The slow-burn romance is testing the audience's patience, with many commenting that they "cannot wait any longer" for the protagonists to finally meet in a sober state. The chapter successfully builds character relationships but leaves the audience in a state of heightened exasperation, desperate for the stalled plot to advance.
