Blackening the Affectionate Male Lead (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 82
Whitney sat in a rocking chair, warming herself by the fireplace.
The rain had let up compared to before, yet it still showed no sign of stopping. It wasn’t even monsoon season—how much more rain could possibly fall later?
“Are you not cold?”
“No, I’m fine. You have something to say, don’t you?”
“While speaking with the investigator about the case, I heard a strange tale. It came from a courtier closely tied to the royal family—his cousin, apparently. I thought Your Grace should know about it.”
Honestly, Sir Aaron seemed to have connections everywhere. Whitney couldn’t even get news from the capital through newspapers, yet here she was hearing all sorts of rumors through him.
“What did they say?”
She fanned herself, trying to temper the heat from the fireplace. Lighting a fire in midsummer—people from the capital would click their tongues in disapproval if they heard. But the relentless rain had lowered the temperature and raised the humidity, making the fireplace necessary just to stave off the dampness.
Occasionally, lighting the hearth was essential to maintain dryness. Though Whitney’s clothing was far lighter than what she’d wear in the capital, she couldn’t appear too relaxed in front of the servants, so she kept her fan firmly in hand.
‘Still, my body feels pleasantly drowsy.’
Just watching the firewood burn away made time pass easily. Besides, with little reason to exert herself, she remained calm—and that made it all bearable.
But Aaron’s words shattered her composure. She nearly toppled over as she rose too hastily from the rocking chair.
“…Did you just say His Highness Prince Chester has entered the succession struggle?”
“Yes. It’s not confirmed, but apparently His Majesty the King discussed educating Prince Karl alongside him with the Chamberlain.”
He must mean Sir Walter—the Chamberlain. One of the King’s most trusted confidants.

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.
