Even if Your Regret Holds Me Back (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 32
“What are you staring at so intently?”
For a brief moment, the fine hairs on the back of her neck stood on end, but Helena answered calmly, forcing composure.
“I saw a bluebird that seemed lost, so I gave it some directions.”
“…?”
Baffled by her cryptic answer, one of Ian’s eyebrows arched upward.
It was an expression Helena rarely saw, so she found herself staring at his face longer than usual.
“…Is there something on my face?”
“No, I just… wanted to see you, that’s all.”
It was a direct, instinctive truth, yet the tips of Ian’s ears faintly reddened. Trying to mask his embarrassment, he rubbed his eyebrow with the knuckle of his thumb.
The motion made the paper bags in his arms brush against each other, producing a soft rustling sound. Helena’s gaze, which had been fixed firmly on Ian, scattered.
‘He said he was going to the general store… Did he really need that much?’
Helena absentmindedly peered into one of the paper bags and spotted a long rolled-up parchment. Though he’d bought other trinkets along with it—likely to avoid suspicion—it was clearly a map.
Since she’d given Putoa’s map to that man just moments ago, this one was probably of a different region.
Moreover, earlier that morning, she’d overheard him tell the innkeeper to charge him only until tomorrow—a stark change from his usual habit of paying for his stay well in advance.
‘So he’s finally leaving?’

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.
