However much JHo explained, Master Cheon-Ho did not open his eyes
JHo co Master Cheon-Ho's unh, JHo turned to leave with his tail and ears drooping
Even after JHo left the roo tails and close the door behind him, Master Cheon-Ho did not call JHo back
Du-Ito aiting by the door saw JHo leaving the roo JHo, Du-Ito noticed JHo's bad mood
It was scary for Du-Ito to ask about what happened because of how stony JHo's expression seeo?”
”…Just wait, his ansill coift was delivered to JHo that evening froift, JHo entered the bed chamber where Ho-Chi lied
The roo as quiet as possible, JHo pushed the blinds that separated the bed and the rooh the roo couldn't be heard
Inside the box, there laid Master Cheon-Ho's gift It was a white flower
It was the sa at while he was drinking his tea
When JHo realized as inside the hue to throw the whole box to the floor But, with much difficulty, JHo instead placed it onto the floor as he set down cross legged beside Ho-Chi
JHo bit down on his lower lip as he covered his reddened eye rims
”Look, the person whoifts for sent you this in return”
Fighting back the tears froripped his hands into fists to prevent the the flower
”Master Cheon-Ho didn't even reh you sincerely presented hiently spoke to Ho-Chi as lying on the bed
”My heart…was hurting”
Ho-Chi could not hear JHo's words
”When I spoke to Master Cheon-Ho about you, my heart broke”
And JHo felt relieved about the fact that he felt the pain
”When I cursed you,about who about cause me pain But I had no other choice In order to receive the fox bead, I had to If I showed any affection for you, Master Cheon-Ho would have delayed giving you the fox bead just to see what happens”
JHo was glad that Ho-Chi wouldn't be hurt by as happening
”But what is this, a flower Not a fox bead but a flower that contains barely enough energy to sustain your life I should just give you ht not be able to accept them as your own, it could be better than this”
However, JHo knew that Ho-Chi's origin of poas not him
It was y froh JHo scarred his heart by spitting out hateful things about Ho-Chi, Master Cheon-Ho did not grant JHo's request as he thought
JHo picked up the flower frole petal from it, JHo placed it on Ho-Chi's lips
When the petal lowed and disappeared into Ho-Chi's mouth
For aup the second single petal, JHo placed it on Ho-Chi's lips again
The petal disappeared once again with a light and, this tier
”What does that human means to you”
When the third petal disappeared into Ho-Chi's mouth, a wind blew in to scatter little strands of Ho-Chi's hair
Little bit of vitality returned to Ho-Chi's body Watching the change happen, JHo picked up the last petal and stopped histhe petal in his hand
”Are you…going back? When you open your eyes, are you going to return to that human?”
Ho-Chi as still in his sleep did not answer JHo's question
JHo stared down at Ho-Chi's sleeping face for a long while When he finally moved, JHo deposited the last petal between his own lips
JHo then bent down his body tonoise, JHo's violet hair fell from JHo's shoulders and formed a curtain around Ho-Chi
JHo stared at Ho-Chi for a low, the last petal disappeared, and JHo felt Ho-Chi's dried lips with his own
Ho-Chi opened his eyes and saw JHo
TN: One thing I aument with Master Cheon-Ho What was JHo's excuse for requesting Master Cheon-Ho to save Ho-Chi's life? It wasn't very clear in Korean either Maybe it's just !
