I had explicitly told Ken not to think about giving up everything.
“Haha…”
“…Looks like you’ve already done something.”
“Well, um… That’s right. Ha… Is there no way?”
“A way… Well, think about it. But don’t expect too much.”
Without saying much in response to that, I nodded my head. In fact, it was fortunate enough to have noticed this much.
“Yes. Then, I’ll be back soon.”
“Sure, don’t keep me waiting.”
Right after the farewell, Hwang Doju waved his short arms vigorously, shaking his hand in the air.
With that, I returned to the room after exchanging greetings.
Perhaps due to going to bed late the previous night, Luedello was still asleep, and Shasha was poking Luedello.
“Piggyyy. Wake up. I’m bored.”
“Shasha, you shouldn’t bother a friend who’s sleeping.”
“Sis!”
Shasha ran towards me without hesitation and hugged me tightly.
“Where were you?”
“I had something to do. When did Shasha wake up?”
“Just now! I woke up, but you weren’t there. So, I wanted to see you and was about to go look for you, but… I kept getting worried about the pig. So, I woke up the pig to go look for you!”
While chattering about the brief incident, Shasha moved her mouth as if enjoying the conversation and then grinned.
“But, Sis, you seem a bit thin.”
“Huh?”
“I felt it before, and you keep getting thinner. Sis, are you sleeping well?”
Shasha shook my hand in all directions.
“Uh-huh, I’m hungry. Should I ask for a meal? Luedello might wake up from the smell of food.”
“Okay! Pigs are definitely going to wake up if they smell food. You don’t know how cute he is when he eats. Exactly like a squirrel. I saw a squirrel in a book this time, and it was so lovely with its cheeks full of food.”
Shasha, talking like that, was just as adorable as all the animals in the world.
“Yeah. I need to get healthier. I feel sorry for Noah… But I have people to protect.”
I was weak in both lives, but this time, I had a chance.
A chance for my weakened self to protect others. Therefore, I was more determined than ever. Of course, I knew that just making up my mind wouldn’t change anything, but all I could do was try my best with what I had.
When the meal was ready, Luedello slowly got up. Wiping his eyes, Luedello, who came out of the bedroom as if bewitched, took a seat in front of the dining table.
“It’s really a pig! He truly woke up because of the smell of food!”
“Ugh, I slept well!”
“Huh? Luedello seems a bit strange today!”
Looking at Luedello, who hopped over to us, Shasha tilted her head with a grin.
“Am I strange?”
“Yeah. Extremely strange. Something… like the old Luedello.”
“Is that a good thing?”
“Yeah! It’s a good thing!”
“Right, it’s good to be like the original Luedello! So think of it positively.”
“Queen Mama and Shasha say that… so it must be true.”
“Then, shall we quickly have a meal and go out? Let’s go to the library together after a long time.”
Upon hearing that, both kids nodded simultaneously.
Perhaps it was due to our collective exhaustion the previous day. The mealtime was sweeter than usual. Despite the food being no different from usual, everyone was busy eating in a hurry.
After finishing the meal, we went to the library, and as usual, we picked out books.
Unnoticed by the children, Hwang Do-joo, who had been up on a bookshelf much higher than the children’s line of sight, nodded silently. It was only then that I could understand.
Luedello’s memories were sealed.
That evening.
We had previously agreed not to invite any guests to the Star Palace for a few days after the wedding. So, to confirm the situation, I personally called Serhelus.
The children had already fallen asleep, and Ryan had informed me that she would be late today.
“I didn’t expect you to call right after the wedding.”
“Sorry. I have something to ask.”
“Something to ask?”
He personally moved a terrace chair so that I could sit comfortably. Once I took my seat, he also sat beside me.
“Serhelus, do you happen to know about magic that seals memories?”
“I do.”
“What kind of magic is it?”
Just in case, I asked him as well. If it’s Serhelus, wouldn’t he know something different? Since Hwang Do-joo had been in the library, magic could have significantly advanced.
“It’s just as it sounds. It’s a magic that seals memories.”
“Could it possibly bring up only specific memories?”
“No.”
Contrary to Hwang Do-joo’s words, Serhelus was quite firm.
“It’s not possible?”
“Yes.”
“Oh…”
It’s not possible to bring up only specific memories? Then how on earth did Luedello…
‘I don’t think the child lied.’
I trust Luedello. If so, could Hwang Do-joo’s words be wrong?
“In the rare case it happens, it’s probably because the memory-sealing magic was cast multiple times.”
“Casting it layer by layer and releasing only the necessary part when needed.”
“That’s right.”
Male lead is a Destined Young Husband (Female-dominant)
One-sentence summary: Wife-master, listen to my explanation!
Li Ruantang, a young lady from a prestigious family, stumbled and fell. When she woke up, she saw a noble and beautiful young man sitting by her bedside, wiping away tears.
The young master had slightly reddened eyes, and his every move exuded charm.
The sight made Li Ruantang’s eyes hot and her heart flutter. After all, she had made a bet with the young master Meng from the neighboring family. If she couldn’t marry a husband before the end of the year, she would have to admit defeat and give up the jade she had worked so hard to obtain.
Outside the window, the flowers were in full bloom.
Rather than losing the bet, the jade, and her face, Li Ruantang calculated that it would be better to seek marriage with the young master in front of her, killing three birds with one stone.
…
Meng Jun never thought that an accident during a spring outing would lead to them rolling down a cliff and into a river, yet still survive.
Now they were trapped in an unknown village, and Meng Jun had overheard that the family who had rescued them had their own intentions.
After all, it was Li Ruantang who had lost her mind and sought marriage first. He was only trying to protect himself!
Glancing at Li Ruantang, who was listing her own merits, the young husband’s voice softened, and he blushed as he lied, “W-wife-master, Wife-master, don’t you remember me?”
The young husband’s voice was clear and handsome, coaxing Li Ruantang’s heart to be soft and sweet, and she spared no effort to protect him.
It wasn’t until they returned to the capital that Li Ruantang suddenly remembered.
When they had fallen off the cliff, in order not to implicate Wei Yunruo, whom he secretly admired, the young husband had instead pulled her, who was slightly farther away, down the cliff with him…
Short summary by Yuushi L: Initially, the male lead (ML) liked another girl, while the female lead (FL) liked the ML. Both fell off a cliff. The FL temporarily lost her memory, and the ML, fearing others might take advantage of him, claimed FL was his wife while they were staying in a village. Later, when they returned home, the FL regained her memories and remembered that the ML liked someone else, so she kept her distance from him. However, during their time living together in the countryside, the ML’s view of the FL had completely changed. From this point, his pursuit of the FL begins.
