### Summary
Following a narrative detour focused on the newly official side couple, Noah and Leo, the story has returned its attention to the main protagonists, Giovanni and Felix. The current chapter centers on a conflict arising from Felix's return to college, where he faces ageist remarks from a younger classmate. In a move celebrated by readers as both "petty" and protective, Giovanni orchestrates an elaborate public humiliation of the antagonist. Rather than engaging directly, he arranges for Felix's father to appear, effectively "flexing" on the classmate and defending Felix's honor in a cunning, indirect manner. This act has solidified reader adoration for Giovanni, with many comments praising him as the "best husband" for his sly and fiercely protective nature. While fans are thrilled to see the main couple again, there is a shared, lighthearted disappointment over a teased "Christmas smut" scene that did not materialize. The chapter, which also features the return of a character named Secretary Kim, reportedly ends on a cliffhanger, leaving the audience eager for the next installment.
