Ah, what a troublesome chapter -for me, lol- )': the 2nd Prince can be a little annoying and silly, but he's been also quite decent, and it's true that his affection for An Qi never wavered, it's also true that he paid attention to her almost immediately, and he didn't get shocked by her actions despite his big fantasy about her (which it was my biggest issue with him), maybe if he had met her first or in different circumstances... ah, I don't need it, why can't he be as scummy as the Crown Prince? It'd be easier to reject and hate him, haha.
Hearing An Qi last words in this chapter reminded me of her poison, I can't believe that I almost forget it. I was practically marrying our main couple already, but it's true that she just got entangled with the Demon Prince solely because the circumstances that put at risk her life, she needs him as much as he needs her so both can survive, and no one will be free until they find a cure. It's not like she really loves him 100% which yeah, I guess it's cool but somehow sad, haha.
