### Summary
The narrative continues within the Joseon-era alternate universe, resolving the previous chapter's cliffhanger where the unsuspecting Yi-rim discovered the noble heir Cheong-ho at the start of his rut. The current chapter depicts their immediate and passionate sexual encounter in a forest setting. Reader commentary indicates this scene is explicit and highly praised, viewed as both physically intense and emotionally intimate, reinforcing the belief that the couple's love "transcends time." This development has solidified fan speculation that the union will lead to the conception of an alternate-universe version of their son, Yi-ho. While the AU is largely popular, the context shift has created minor confusion, with some readers mistakenly questioning if Yi-rim is already pregnant, conflating the side story with the main timeline's plot. Despite this and a lingering desire from some to return to the primary family narrative, the overall reception is overwhelmingly positive, with fans celebrating the art and the chance to see the couple fall in love again, and eagerly demanding more.
