Emergency Medical Center.
The sedan, driven by Team Leader Nam, came to a screeching halt in front of the emergency room, its red sign illuminated.
Holding Hyojin in his arms, Exchange, who had been sitting in the back seat, hurriedly got out through the door opened by Team Leader Nam.
The medical staff, who had been contacted in advance and were waiting, quickly brought a moving bed.
“Teacher, this is the hospital. Hang in there just a bit more.”
Exchange, who had laid Hyojin, unconscious, on the bed, headed to the ward with the medical staff.
“From here, guardians cannot enter.”
The doctor, who had ushered Hyojin into the emergency room, blocked Exchange.
“Step aside.”
Having sent his wife alone into the operating room, Exchange, who felt powerless, unhesitatingly pushed aside the doctor and went inside.
“Guardian…!”
“I can’t take a single step away from here, so treat her in front of me!”
With a gaze as if shaking someone by the collar, Exchange forced the doctor, who had no choice, to check Hyojin’s pulse, blood pressure, pupils, and connect an oxygen respirator in front of him.
“What are you doing right now?”
Exchange stopped the doctor from cutting off Hyojin’s turtleneck with scissors.
“Due to contamination from the fire, we need to remove it, and we must wipe off the skin exposed to toxic gas.”
“Please, I’ll do it.”
No matter how much of a doctor he was, the touch of an outsider’s hands on Hyojin’s body was unpleasant.
After cutting the center of the T-shirt with scissors and pulling it off, Exchange, who inspected meticulously for burns on Hyojin’s neck, chest, and abdomen, where there was no lucky burn.
Fortunately, seeing that there were no abnormalities, Exchange stepped back, and a female nurse approached to wipe Hyojin’s pale skin.
“If there are symptoms of concussion due to the collision in the car, we’ll perform a CT scan.”
The doctor, having completed the emergency measures, moved with Hyojin, who still hadn’t regained consciousness, to the examination room.
“President.”
Team Leader Nam approached Exchange, who was watching the CT scan from the corridor in front of the examination room.
“The police contacted us, and they say Hwang Taeseong is in critical condition.”
“Damn it. What about the accident vehicle?”
“They’ve requested an investigation from the National Forensic Service. It seems they suspect that someone has premeditatedly set it up to catch fire if the vehicle is driven.”
Son of a…
He had been expecting it all along, ever since Kang Jae-ik went to find Hwang Taeseong.
Knowing that and still going to save Hyojin, he felt most resentful of himself, who ended up in danger.
“We need to do whatever it takes to prevent Teacher Bong from being harmed.”
If she went wrong too, he felt like he wouldn’t be able to forgive himself.
Past midnight.
“Patient Bong Hyojin. Family member?”
The tightly closed door of the examination room opened, and a doctor came out.
“How is the patient?”
Exchange’s heart anxiously waited for an answer as he held his breath.
“At the time of the transfer, there was no consciousness, so we suspected a concussion or intracranial hemorrhage, but the CT scan results are all normal. Consciousness has returned to normal as well.”
“Whew, that’s really fortunate.”
Team Leader Nam, who had been waiting anxiously, sighed with relief.
“How much longer do we need to stay in the hospital?”
Exchange asked, still unable to relax.
“For now, it would be good for her to stay at the hospital overnight while being monitored. Even though everything seems fine now, bleeding could occur later due to the impact of the collision during the accident. She has a lot of swelling on her forehead from the collision, so we are applying cold compresses.”
“Thank you. You’ve worked hard.”
The doctor bowed and called Exchange, who was about to enter the ward.
“Just a moment. The guardian should receive treatment as well.”
Exchange, who had burns on his back of the hand and elbow from pulling Hyojin out of the burning car, was still unable to feel pain due to his concern for Hyojin.
“Let’s first check on the patient.”
Knock, knock.
Hyojin, lying on the bed with an ice pack on her forehead, opened her eyes.
“…?”
Thinking it was a medical staff member, Hyojin turned her head at the familiar scent tickling her nose.
“…Dad?”
Exchange, who had been anxiously waiting in fear of any mishap, burst into tears at the sound of Hyojin calling him.
“Are you okay? Is there anywhere that hurts? Ah, it’s all my fault, really.”
Even though he tried to hide his tears by pressing his fingertips against his eyes, tears of relief flowed uncontrollably.
“Dad, why are you crying?”
Hyojin, surprised to see Exchange covering her reddened eyes and covering her with a sheet, had no choice but to get up.
“Why is your hand like this? Are you hurt?”
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.
