49 Times Left, Master! (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 257
“An opportunity? Gonggong, what do you mean?”
“Only His Highness the Thirteenth Prince will go on this mission. Please consider it carefully, Bi Jeonha.”
After Song Taegam left, I realized what he had been trying to say. The Emperor had given me a chance to switch the paternity test tool.
Otherwise, no matter how secret the task needed to be, he wouldn’t have sent only the Thirteenth Prince.
‘His Majesty has made a great decision. Of course, if the Sixteenth Prince fails to undergo a proper paternity test, he’ll never receive His Majesty’s favor for the rest of his life. But at least he’ll surely avoid punishment.’
If the Sixteenth Prince is confirmed as Yo Lin Hwa’s child, one of Yo Lin Hwa’s punishments will definitely be reduced.
Yet even so, I felt helpless. Even if Yo Lin Hwa’s crimes were reduced by one, my family was still in danger.
After all, the Emperor had already declared that Father’s false confession—whether under coercion or not—was a crime. He also said Yo Lin Hwa discarding the antidote in front of His Majesty was a crime.
Even if Yo Lin Hwa’s child is confirmed as legitimate, unless those two crimes are erased, saving my family remains impossible.
Moreover, Father’s false confession wasn’t truly Yo Lin Hwa’s crime—it was practically unrelated to the matter of the Sixteenth Prince.
‘Ah!’
At that moment, I finally understood what Yo Lin Hwa’s request—cut off mid-sentence by the Thirteenth Prince—had been.
‘The joint statement! The joint statement Yo Lin Hwa entrusted to me! She asked me to use it!’
Yo Lin Hwa must have told the Emperor about this as well.
The Emperor probably guessed I would use that joint statement to save my family.

My Arch-enemy Sealed My Memory and Said That He is My Husband
This is an incredibly captivating story that you absolutely shouldn’t miss! I’ll give a brief introduction here, and below you’ll find a detailed synopsis of the plot.

The female lead is a fierce and powerful demon king. The male lead is a once-in-a-millennium celestial lord, admired by the entire cultivation world.
They are equally matched, legendary rivals who have battled for centuries.
In the final duel, the female lead is gravely injured. The male lead saves her, seals her memories, and hides her true identity. He tells her that he is her fiancé. His entire life has been flawless—except for the one thing he never expected, never controlled, and never wanted to control: falling for his greatest enemy. She is his inner demon, his obsession.
When the female lead regains her memories, she is furious at his deception.
She makes his life a living hell.
And somehow, the male lead—possibly a total masochist—doesn’t mind at all. In fact, he’s happy she’s paying attention to him.
Yep, we’re back to my favorite trope: male lead suffering. If you love this kind of story, jump into the pit with me now!!!
Intro
Dong Xia lost her memory.
Her handsome and extremely powerful fiancé Li Qing comforted her: “It’s okay if you can’t remember. I’ll always be with you.”
Everyone thought Dong Xia’s ancestors must have burned incense to get such a perfect fiancé. He was the number one person in the immortal realm, yet he remained chaste and only loved her.
…
The day before marrying her fiancé, Dong Xia finally remembered everything.
She wasn’t suffering from memory loss at all.
Her arch-enemy had made her fake her death, destroyed her cultivation, replaced her memories, and pretended to be her deeply in love fiancé.
No wonder he said, “It’s okay if you can’t remember”!
Dong Xia laughed coldly as she pulled out her long knife: Li Qing, prepare to die 🙂
*
Li Qing, as the supreme being of the immortal realm, was the people’s shining beacon.
The only unknown stain in his life was his affection for Dong Xia, the ruler of the demon realm.
In the final battle of the war between immortals and demons, the sky collapsed and the earth shattered. The ruler of the demon realm was finally slain under the sword of the supreme being of the immortal realm, and everyone in the immortal realm applauded.
The cultivation world lost a ruler of the demon realm.
And in the back mountain of Li Qing’s cave dwelling, he secretly hid away a fiancée.
Notes:
1. The female lead is white on the outside, black on the inside, and the queen of flattery; the male lead repeatedly tests the edge of darkness, a VIP guest at the crematorium.

That’s a blessing ML is smart and the situation is probably will be resolved quickly, otherwise I would’ve rage flip because of that never ending misunderstandings.
I hoped that after main story ending they finally will stop that habit of lying in every little thing, it’s a pity I expected too much 🫠
I can understand ML’s jealousy, but really, why not to let his wifey pay her karmic debt and then live happily ever after?
