I Pretended To Be Dead And Ran Away (22 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 57
Reniel was visiting the imperial palace for the first time. Thus, she was extremely nervous right from the main gate onward.
Seeing her tense shoulders as she gazed out the window, Tanasis smiled with satisfaction.
To him, she resembled nothing so much as a nervous little rabbit.
He felt certain that once they stepped inside, she wouldn’t be able to run off on a whim anymore.
Tanasis, on the other hand, seemed visibly relaxed—his expression even brightened.
Terison, who had been closely observing Tanasis’s expression, began to doubt whether this person before him was truly the Crown Prince he once knew.
It was already strange enough that he had suddenly disappeared and returned with someone he intended to make a lady-in-waiting.
He might accept male attendants, but he rarely even encountered maids—even when they were hired, since maids were only needed for cleaning.
Even that was usually handled by male attendants in the Crown Prince’s quarters, as Tanasis habitually kept his distance from women.
It was widely understood that his aversion to women likely stemmed from his mother and sisters.
After all, Tanasis’s sisters were truly formidable individuals—
Notoriously ill-tempered and malicious, to be exact.
Terison often wondered if Tanasis’s warped disposition might have been shaped by the Empress and the imperial princesses.
Of course, the Emperor himself—indulgent and arrogant—also played a significant role.
“What’s so fascinating?”

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.
