@neenadoe @Kuroos_kenma I mean, look.

Now, a small announcement. Those who wait for an update of my Mumyeong/Jihwa fic (long overdue, sorry about that) might have noticed this is no longer a single story, but a collection. More bits and pieces to come, but aside from the Seungho fic, those three will get their turn:

must’ve been a servant from whom Jihwa learned about the matter, and he sees this servant ask Jihwa if he’s alright after being dragged out by SH and go down on his knees to help Jihwa up. Only then does SH mention his idea about Jihwa planting a spy.
