In the novel it is chapter 37

Itt is obsessed with his brother, Ing... Growing up, Itt always told Yok that Ing mistreated him (which is true, in a sense), and he uses this to manipulate Yok into helping him scam Ing. In the process, Yok begins to fall for Ing—though he doesn’t realize it until it’s too late. He’s immature and inexperienced; Ing is his first sexual partner, yet Yok had always believed that it was Itt he liked... 🥹 We’re in for some heartbreak...

I read the novel... The truth is, deep down, Yok doesn’t want to end things with Ing—which explains the change regarding his phone. When the moment arrives, his heart tells him no, but his rational mind warns him that if he continues to get more deeply involved with Ing, his brother, his parents, and everyone else around him—all of whom have certain expectations of him—will eventually find out. For this reason, he decides to take a break before his relationship with Ing escalates any further. You have to understand that all of this is entirely new to Yok; he faces significant family pressure and has always been a dutiful son and brother, having lived his life trying to measure up to his family’s standards and emulate his brother. He simply isn’t ready yet, and Ing doesn’t exactly make it easy for him. Their circumstances are quite different: while Ing is proud of who he is and lives life on his own terms, Yok still doesn’t know how to do that—let alone how to face it all.

Yok is attracted to Ing—there’s no doubt about it. The closeness and intimacy that have developed between them are genuine. Itt and Yok’s original plan didn’t include becoming intimate with Ing. However, because Yok has always been a devoted son and brother, he’s afraid that his family, his brother, and Itt might find out about his relationship with Ing.

Itt and Yok's plan 🥹 Stealing his stock and money... if you haven't had any spoilers, I hope this doesn't ruin it for you. We're going to suffer in this BL.

I see a lot of videos spreading misinformation. Itt’s plan was never for Yok to approach Ing romantically—let alone to become intimate with him. The plan was simply for Yok to withhold information and earn Ing’s trust so that Ing wouldn’t discover the theft. Itt would never have allowed Yok to be with Ing, much less touch him; that was never part of the plan. Everything that happened in episode 5 between Yok and Ing was genuine. Yok is experiencing everything for the first time and he enjoys it; he feels an attraction toward Ing, but—by his own account—it isn’t love, because the person he actually likes is Itt. In fact, later on, we’ll see Yok try to end things with Ing because Ing becomes very affectionate, and Yok is afraid that Itt, his brother, or someone else might find out about the intimate nature of their relationship. The plan was never to make Ing fall in love.

Don't worry!! Ing will make Yok suffer before he forgives him!! Believe me!!

I'm definitely also waiting for the stage where Yok begs ING 🤭😏

In fact, later on Yok will try to break up with ING because ING gets very affectionate and Yok is afraid that ITT will find out... The plan was never to sleep with Ing.

That's right, ITT's plan was simply for Yok to help him withhold information from Ing so he could steal from him, but Yok can't resist his attraction to Ing 😌

The book even says that for Yok it was addictive to have such a masculine man as Ing beneath him... The plan was only to omit information, not that he had an affair with Ing...

I see a lot of videos saying that Yok is acting, but let me tell you, no. Everything Yok did in this EP was authentic; the plan was never to make him fall in love with him. ITT would never allow Yok to be with his brother; the plan was solely to keep Yok from revealing information and prevent Ing from discovering the theft, since Yok was Ing's secretary. The plan was never to make him fall in love with him; Yok actually felt attracted to ING. He's
experiencing everything for the first time and he likes it, that's why he's letting himself go. According to him, it's not love, he's just a fool, but that's already been said.

Itt is in love with Ing 💀🫤

Yes, that's how a love triangle is... 😌

Exactly!! Itt likes Ing and wants him as a partner, he doesn't like Yok... he's sick because they're half-siblings, everything that's going to happen is manipulation by the brother.

Yes, Itt's anger wasn't out of jealousy towards Yok... Itt is jealous, but of Ing... He's upset because it bothers him that Yok can get Ing so easily and he can't... 🫩

Yok likes Itt, but Itt doesn't like Yok... he likes his brother Ing...

I think what he means is that Ing abused Yok first, and that does happen in the book; Ing performs oral sex on Yok without his consent, which makes Yok hate him even more.

Nooooo, Itt is crazy and obsessed with Ing... he doesn't want her approval, he wants her to love him... he's sick 🫩

Yes, the boy existed in the novel; he is the son of Ji Mingxuan's sister and ZhouYang... Mingxuan's sister passed away, and Mingxuan ends up raising him as his own son.
