When the deathly cold weather of Song had warmed somewhat, they finally managed to assert their presence in Song.
Having come to participate in the diplomatic negotiations, Ethan lowered his head to the man sitting at the table.
"You damned jerk."
Doyoon had come in place of the nobles of Song, and as soon as he saw Ethan, he began to curse at him. Ethan bowed to Doyoon in earnest before finding his seat at the table.
"You wicked bastard."
"Did you personally come to Song in place of the nobles so that you could curse at me, Your Majesty?"
The last time Doyoon saw Ethan, he looked like a man who had received a death sentence. Today, however, he seemed to have regained some of his old spirit. Could someone make such a transformation just because he found one woman? As a man who did not have a lover of his own, Doyoon found Ethan's current appearance to be very fascinating and awkward.
