But Sehee didn’t hear the voice at once.
“Sehee? Are you okay?”
The voice called Sehee again loudly.
Only then did Sehee slowly react.
Seongjae was looking at Sehee with a worried expression.
The moment Sehee saw Seongjae, she recalled what he had said last time.
“How well do you know that man? Do you trust him? Is he as sincere to you as you are to him?”
Those words Seongjae asked as a warning.
Only then did Sehee understand what those warnings meant.
Who Kyle was, and why he approached her.
Seongjae seemed to know everything.
Maybe even that she would collapse like this.
Sehee dropped her head weakly.
Seongjae, looking at Sehee oddly, realized what she was searching for on the screen.
It was about Kyle Graham Evans.
Seongjae instinctively knew that this moment was a prime opportunity.
For a moment, he felt the weight of his conscience, but his emotions toward Sehee overcame it.
“Sehee, you finally found out.”
Seongjae looked down at Sehee with a regretful expression.
“…Did you know, Seongjae?”
Sehee’s voice, fading away like a candlelight, seemed like it would disappear soon.
Instead of answering, Seongjae nodded heavily.
“Everything… all… did you know?”
Sehee’s slow question made her eyes waver.
Seongjae thought Sehee’s question was simply about Kyle’s identity.
So, he decided to make good use of this opportunity.
Since his conscience was temporarily set aside anyway.
“…I’m sorry. On the day of the wedding event announcement, I actually went to see him.”
Seongjae, lowering his head with a gloomy expression, spoke to Sehee as if confessing.
Seeing Seongjae in that state, Sehee forcefully suppressed the emotions welling up.
Seongjae, too, could clearly see that Sehee was suppressing her emotions.
Though it was so pitiful, Seongjae decided to push a little more for the sake of seizing the opportunity.
“Although I warned you not to deal with Sehee lightly…”
Seongjae feigned agony, once again observing the change in Sehee’s expression.
“I’m sorry, Sehee. I should have actively dissuaded you, but because it seemed like you were struggling, like yesterday, I could only indirectly talk to you. I’m really sorry.”
Seongjae grabbed Sehee’s hand, which was turning pale.
At this moment, he decided to be a villain.
To make Sehee’s heart change in the direction he desired, he resolutely made up his mind.
“From now on, I’ll protect you. I’ll be by your side. Sehee.”
Seongjae tried to pull Sehee into his embrace.
However, Sehee pushed Seongjae away and stood up.
“…Thank you for letting me know. But I will handle my affairs on my own.”
Sehee, whose expression had already disappeared, spoke stiffly and turned away.
Despite resorting to unexpected and desperate measures, Seongjae still had to face Sehee’s cold back.
Watching Sehee move away, Seongjae let out a heavy sigh.
Kyle Graham Evans and Lee Sehee.
Seongjae had a clear premonition that a fatal wound would emerge between the two.
Armed with a refreshing non-alcoholic beverage, Kyle was searching for the suddenly disappeared Sehee without a word.
Did she just leave?
Kyle was perplexed.
Was she that nervous?
Because of the haste, it seemed my little bird got scared.
How did I summon such courage that day?
With a silly laugh, Kyle once again surveyed the surroundings.
However, Sehee was nowhere to be found.
Feeling something strange, Kyle left the event hall and headed to Sehee’s room.
Upon reaching the room, Kyle pressed the doorbell, but the room was empty.
Could our paths have diverged?
Still, Sehee had her room key.
Despite knowing that Sehee wouldn’t find her way to her room alone, Kyle headed to his own room.
Again, Sehee wasn’t there.
Where on earth did she disappear to?
Now Kyle began to worry about Sehee.
He headed back to Sehee’s room.
At that moment, Sehee, walking toward her room, came into view.
Only then, relieved, Kyle quickly approached Sehee.
“What happened? How long have you been searching?”
Seeing Kyle asking with concern, Sehee, as if encountering a ghost, startled and stepped back.
“Why? What happened? What’s wrong?”
Confused by Sehee’s inexplicable reaction, Kyle was taken aback.
With each step Kyle took forward, Sehee, seemingly terrified, stepped back even more.
That behavior made Kyle more uneasy.
He reached out and grabbed Sehee, who was trying to escape.
Like a person who had lost their mind, Sehee, with dilated pupils, looked up at Kyle.
“What on earth happened?”
Kyle’s frustrated voice grew louder.
“…I, I’m not feeling well.”
Although Sehee knew it was an unreasonable excuse, she said it.
Why did you deceive me?
“Why did you do that?”
“Why did you act like that?”
I wanted to ask, but I couldn’t bring myself to speak.
When Kyle heard those facts directly from himself, who had already poured out his heart, he couldn’t bear the wounds he would receive.
So, he couldn’t bring himself to ask.
Looking at Kyle, who was approaching with genuine concern, Sehee couldn’t even believe this appearance, considering it all false.
No, she didn’t want to believe it.
Sehee was not at all prepared to accept this shocking truth.
With resentment in her eyes, Sehee looked up at Kyle.
“Where doesn’t feel good?”
Kyle asked.
Sehee’s condition seemed strange now.
Sehee’s expression wasn’t that of a person feeling unwell.
It was more like the expression of someone who had received a significant shock, a blank expression.
Moreover, Sehee’s gaze towards him had changed.
Just a moment ago, she blushed shyly, showing tension. Now, it was completely different.
“Where did you go? What happened?”
Interrogating, Kyle asked Sehee, but she didn’t answer.
“I’m tired. I just want to rest.”
Avoiding Kyle’s gaze, Sehee spoke.
As if she wanted to escape from his grip, she struggled with all her might.
“Then let’s go to my room. It would be better to rest together.”
Something clearly happened to Sehee.
Feeling an anxiousness that might make him never see her again, Kyle wanted to keep Sehee in his space.
“No, I’ll rest in my room. So, please… let go now?”
Sehee’s voice asking to be let go was chillingly cold.
“Sehee?”
In response to Sehee’s sharp tone, Kyle’s expression completely froze.
“…Am I angry because of my hasty behavior at the event hall? If that’s the reason, I’m truly sorry. I apologize sincerely. I was rude.”
In the current situation, Kyle thought that Sehee was reacting like this because of that incident.
As if she didn’t properly understand the expression asking him to stop.
“Let go of my hand, please.”
Even with Kyle’s apology, Sehee spoke with a very firm tone.
Surprised by Sehee’s unfamiliar attitude, Kyle, instead, tightened his grip.
“It hurts.”
As Sehee painfully furrowed her brows, Kyle’s hand immediately lost its strength.
Soon, Sehee, who had escaped from Kyle, entered her room without looking back.
What on earth is this situation?
Bewildered, Kyle stood still in front of the tightly closed door after Sehee had entered.
After a while, Sehee’s room door opened.
At that moment, a small sigh of relief escaped from Kyle’s lips.
However, in Sehee’s hand, which was sternly facing him, was Kyle’s jacket.
Checking his jacket, Kyle was quickly occupied by an overwhelming ominous emotion.
“Take it.”
Speaking coldly, Sehee handed Kyle’s jacket back to him.
And, turning back calmly, he went inside, slamming the door so forcefully that it made a loud bang.
The door that had been closed like that never opened again.
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.
