### Summary
Reader response to the current chapter is overwhelmingly ecstatic, celebrating a significant and playful advancement in the relationship between Peony and Richt. The central focus is a scene where the two engage in a game, which readers note is filled with palpable "sexual tension" and marks a clear shift in their dynamic from "cringe-filled disdain to all the giggles." A major highlight for the audience is a visual gag involving Richt's hair being styled in pigtails or ponytails, a look that readers find simultaneously adorable, hilarious, and unexpectedly attractive. This distinctive hairstyle has prompted numerous comparisons to other characters, specifically Choso and Garu. This chapter's lighthearted intimacy builds directly upon the previous chapter's romantic breakthrough, where Richt was seen blushing. The audience's comments are dominated by expressions of pure delight—including "giggling," "squealing," and "kicking my feet"—as they revel in the couple's burgeoning chemistry and the satisfying payoff of the slow-burn narrative.
