She had been scared of her mother's reaction to the broken jade, but now she was even more scared of the Prince's reaction if he found out she had just lied to him. She could tell it was important to him, to find Mu-deok, if he came all the way here even after dusk. It wasn't easy lying to her mother, the leader of Jinyowon, but it was an entirely different feeling to have lied to the next leader of Daeho. And Cho-yeon could see in his eyes, that he did not quite believe her story.

It wasn't that she was smitten with him; on the contrary, she knew how loud he could get when he shouted orders when things weren't under his control. She had seen it first-hand when she, Yul and Dang-gu went to visit Uk and found him in the middle of a match with the Crown Prince.
Dang-gu's clear, melodic voice sliced through Cho-yeon's brewing worry. "But why did you not get the wedding rings made?" he looked at her. "I went to Chwiseonru to lend you my hand, but you weren't there." he sounded disappointed, even a bit sad. Cho-yeon glanced away from him, feeling even more guilty.

"I just...decided to postpone it." she blurted out, her voice filled with unspoken emotions. She had not meant to disappoint Dang-gu. She could not look into his eyes with such sadness in them. From the side, she could feel her mother's inspecting gaze on her face.
