YooHan was simply euphoric. While he was on the boat that was heading to Jeju, he couldn't help but stand on the promenade deck and look at the sea, thinking about YeonWoo's expression after seeing him. YooHan promised to buy a nice present for Ha Neul too, she was about to marry him just to help her cousin, her heart was so pure that it was almost angelic.

Yeonwoo instead... he didn't see the situation like that. What did Ha Neul mean by that telegram? She surely meant that she didn't care about him... that she wanted to marry YooHan no matter what, just because she loved him, how could her cousin blame her for that? She was a woman, she had the right to marry a man like YooHan...

The first period on Jeju wasn't that bad, but that telegram sent from the offices of Hanyang managed to change every aspect of the frail life that YeonWoo carefully created on Jeju... the work wasn't enough for him, he let the papers on the desk of his office, the governor started wondering what was wrong, why didn't he respond to any of his missives?

After a journey of a few days, YooHan finally landed on Jeju. He looked around smelling the salty air of the harbor and feeling the sun hitting his pale skin. A bright smile was adorning his face.

"Lord Choi, the governor is really concerned now, he said that if you want to take a rest you should just say so... but you shouldn't lock yourself in the offices without letting anyone inside... and it looks like your conditions are getting worse... are you sure you're alright? Your highness?" the servant asked behind the close doors of YeonWoo's quarters.

"Excuse me, I must see Lord Choi YeonWoo, is he busy at the moment?" Yoohan asked as he spotted the servant. The man looked at him a little confused, he stuttered for a moment before responding.

"Actually... he is here... in this room... but he doesn't let anyone inside... the governor is quite worried. Do you want me to announce you? Maybe he will change his mind. What is your name young master?" the servant asked

"Go YooHan" the guy answered

Before the servant could even dare to say a word, YeonWoo immediately opened the door. He coughed for a while and fell in front of YooHan.

"YeonWoo!"

"Stop right there! Don't dare to kneel! I won't experience that again..."

"But YeonWoo... you're... my god... look at you, go call a doctor" YooHan said turning to the servant who nodded and ran away.

"You should think about Ha Neul... she will be your wife... just promise me you will treat her as a queen..."

"What are you talking about?"

"Don't act like you don't know anything! She loves you deeply! She wants to... to..." YeonWoo shouted angrily, however... he accidentally looked up at YooHan who was already staring at him. It wasn't as painful as the first time, YeonWoo's face got slightly warmer while a cold sensation ran from his feet and his hands until he felt that he didn't have the force to keep his eyes open.
