### Summary
The romantic progress from the previous chapter is violently shattered when Heechan's abusive father returns home and physically assaults him, forcing a horrified Jinhyuk to witness the event. Jinhyuk's subsequent internal conflict and decision to walk away without calling the police became the chapter's central focus, creating a deeply divided reader response. A significant portion of the audience, many of whom shared personal experiences with domestic abuse, defended Jinhyuk's inaction. They argued that involving authorities without the victim's consent could escalate the violence and lead to severe retaliation against Heechan, making it a pragmatic, if painful, choice. Conversely, another vocal group of readers condemned Jinhyuk as a coward, frustrated by his passivity and questioning why he didn't intervene or offer Heechan shelter at his own empty house. While a few readers noted subtle character growth in that Jinhyuk at least considered helping this time, the overwhelming reaction was one of heartbreak and anger over the traumatic scene, with universal condemnation for Heechan's father and profound sympathy for Heechan. The event has shifted the story to a much heavier tone, overshadowing previous romantic developments with the stark reality of Heechan's suffering.
