### Summary
The central misunderstanding between Hwayeon and Muyeong escalates into a comedic climax, as Hwayeon delivers an instant and firm rejection. This event directly follows Muyeong's display of violence, which triggered Hwayeon's deep-seated hemophobia from her past life and led him to misinterpret her terror as personal hatred. Readers find the "rejection before the relationship even started" hilarious, focusing on the comedic suffering of the "lovesick" Crown Prince. Muyeong, who continues to conceal his royal identity, is perceived as a straightforward but emotionally devastated "poor wolf pup," with his shocked inner thoughts providing a key source of humor. This development amplifies the series' core dramatic irony, as Hwayeon unknowingly pushes away the very man her family is trying to protect her from, with her brother Gangyun still acting as Muyeong's unwitting matchmaker. The scenario, particularly the hidden identity trope, has prompted numerous reader comparisons to the series "Father, I Don't Want This Marriage." Overall, this chapter is seen as a comedic peak, effectively using the ongoing misunderstanding to create a moment of "emotional damage" for Muyeong that has delighted the audience.
