It is nice that Yuulin is quite independent that she doesn’t want to always depend on Reishou pampering and doing things for her. This has something to do with her upbringing since she can only rely on herself to help her family and clean up her father’s mess/debts. It doesn’t help that the rumors about her as the Queen being overly spoiled that she might cause Reishou’s downfall. Of course, there are times when being helped by others is a good thing and it also shows that they are concerned about her. There are limits to what she can do so, I think moderation is the key here. Not overly dependent yet, not too independent to refuse everyone’s help especially if it is a dangerous or troublesome situation. It also does seem like she doesn’t want to trouble Reishou about her and her problems especially since he is the king. If Yuulin finally gets the ‘right mix’ of when to depend on herself and on Reishou, they will be more like a couple by then. ^^ Unfortunately, she never wonders why he treats her in a special way which somewhat goes beyond acting as a ‘fake couple’. ^^; And, it turns out that Kokuu is just one of Reishou’s men and not his brother, like I originally thought. I guess Dai looks disapproving of him since they are in the same line of work and probably, Kokuu isn’t doing a good job at it?
