### Summary
Following the previous chapter's cliffhanger, the man successfully confronts Soohee, but she attempts to reject him. Readers note her flimsy reasoning, pointing out her embarrassment over his "mean" appearance and her fixation on their negligible two-year age difference, which the audience finds absurd. The confrontation takes a shocking turn when the man breaks down into a dramatic, theatrical crying fit. This sudden display of vulnerability initially fools many readers, who find his tearful face endearing. However, the tactic proves to be a calculated manipulation; after Soohee relents and allows him into her apartment, he is seen sporting a cunning smirk behind her back. This reveal completely reframes his character in the eyes of the audience, who now overwhelmingly label him a "sly fox," a "manipulative hottie," and a "red flag" they are nonetheless excited by. The chapter ends with him inside her home, with readers noting he seems to be plying her with alcohol and eagerly anticipating an imminent sexual encounter, or "snu snu." The audience's prior "second-hand embarrassment" for Soohee has been replaced by amusement and anticipation for the dynamic between the two cunning leads.
