Considering his affection for Hee Kyung, he tolerated Yun Hee’s tantrums, but he had reached his limit.
When he firmly told her he didn’t see her as a woman, Yun Hee disappeared in shame.
He thought she’d return to America on her own, but didn’t expect her to stay in Korea and lurk around him.
He never thought she would approach Da Hyun.
“Damn it.”
Her reappearance now seemed like a deliberate attempt to disrupt his and Da Hyun’s relationship.
“It’s too late to turn back.”
He couldn’t bring himself to tell the truth. He didn’t want to shock Da Hyun, especially during her pregnancy.
If something went wrong…
He didn’t want to entertain dreadful thoughts. Min Hyuk sighed and got up, unable to face her as if nothing had happened.
But he knew if he didn’t go out, she would come looking for him again.
Could he behave normally as always?
His muscles remained tense with anxiety.

Min Hyuk, with hesitant steps, opened the closed door.
Da Hyun, coming out of the bathroom, looked pale.
“I should go back up and rest.”
Before heading to the bedroom, Da Hyun hesitated, thinking of going to the study where Min Hyuk was.
“Oh? Min Hyuk.”
She brightened up on seeing Min Hyuk coming out of the kitchen with a cup of water.
Min Hyuk approached her with his usual gentle smile.
“Here, drink some water.”
“Thank you.”
Da Hyun weakly accepted the cup and quenched her thirst.
“I was about to come to the study.”
“Why? I can come to you.”
“You didn’t hear me knocking?”
“Oh? Yes.”
Da Hyun slowly scrutinized Min Hyuk. She had thought he didn’t answer because he was showering. But that wasn’t the case.
He hadn’t changed since leaving for work.
“You haven’t showered since you got home?”
“Uh? Oh, I came straight home. But you were sleeping, so I was just doing some work.”
Min Hyuk smoothly lied. Da Hyun couldn’t detect anything amiss in his calm demeanor.
But you didn’t answer the phone? Even though you were at home?
She felt a pang of sadness over just a missed call, a result of his usually being overly affectionate.
Da Hyun concealed her disappointment and nodded.
“Okay. Come up after you shower.”
“Sure. I’ll shower and be right up.”
“No, finish your work if you haven’t. I’ll just have another glass of water and go to the bedroom.”
“No need. I’m done. I’ll be up right after.”
Min Hyuk, shaking his head, took the water cup from her.
“I’ll get the water. Just sit.”
“It’s okay. I can get water myself, Min Hyuk.”
“I’m not okay with that.”
“You don’t even treat a child like this. It’s too protective.”
Despite her words, Da Hyun’s eyes softened.
“I have to protect my wife. Isn’t that a husband’s duty?”
Min Hyuk snatched the cup and went into the kitchen.
Da Hyun watched his back.
He’s my husband.
Her lips curled up uncontrollably.
This is true happiness.
The momentary feeling of being upset vanished as she contentedly followed him into the kitchen.
Then it happened.
“Min Hyuk, will we have a happy ending?”
“First, let’s see what decision your brother makes.”
“If things with Min Hyuk and Kang Si Hoon are resolved, can we meet openly?”
“Uh?”
Her steps froze.
What memory is this?
Da Hyun was disconcerted by the fleeting memory.
“What’s this?”
It was faint, but it was definitely her and Min Hyuk.
Seemingly in a cafe.
Da Hyun’s brow furrowed.
A dream? An illusion?
She pressed her temples with her hand.
“What’s this?”
“Da Hyun.”
Min Hyuk emerged from the kitchen and quickly approached Da Hyun, who was pressing her temples, worried she might be in pain again.
“What’s wrong? Is your head hurting again?”
His focus wavered. Holding a water cup in one hand, he placed his other hand on her temples where she was pressing.
“Min Hyuk.”
“Yes. Tell me.”
He waited with concern in his voice for Da Hyun to speak.
There was no apparent sign of pain like before.
She didn’t look to be in agony or discomfort.
He couldn’t make hasty judgments.
Meeting Kim Yun Hee had made him overly sensitive to her slightest reactions.
Da Hyun stared intently at Min Hyuk, who was showing concern for her.
“It’s strange.”
“What is?”
The Kang Si Hoon matter. What was that about?
“…I just feel like a child because you do everything for me.”
Da Hyun didn’t tell him the truth. She couldn’t say that a scene from a conversation she didn’t remember had flashed in her mind.
This is real, right? She was confused.
The scene was fleeting but unmistakably involved her and Min Hyuk, though they looked younger.
Da Hyun swallowed dryly.
It felt too real to be a mere illusion.
“Are you sure you’re not in pain? Then why are you pressing there?”
Min Hyuk, unable to dismiss his suspicions despite her assurances of no pain, remained concerned.
He was particularly sensitive to her being in pain.
It made sense for him to worry, but to her, his concern seemed excessive.
Especially on days when she showed any signs of discomfort.
Was it because he knew about her car accident? Even if he worried about after-effects, it had been two years since the accident. How likely was it for after-effects to appear after two years?
“Thank you for the water, Min Hyuk.”
Da Hyun, trying to act naturally, took the water cup he brought back.
His hand still lingered on her head.
The thought that he might be hiding something from her began to take root, stirring doubts.
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.
2. Fantasy cultivation world setting.
