If You Wish For My Death (6 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 32
The terrifying look on his face revealed his thoughts clearly.
If she said even a word, he would leave. So they should both stay quiet, behave themselves, and part ways cleanly once their business was done. And Veronica had no choice but to obey his warning.
When a sufficient number of people had gathered, the Emperor raised his hand.
At the signal, the precious artwork brought from across the sea appeared. Pulling back the cloth revealed a painting inside an enormous frame.
“Oh, so this is it.”
The crowd surged toward the painting. Because it was so valuable, ropes had been set up preventing anyone from getting too close, and court servants stood guard on both sides.
Even someone ignorant of art could tell just by looking that this painting—supposedly depicting the grandeur of the gods—was undoubtedly worth a great deal.
It was obvious enough just from the fact that the Emperor had excitedly thrown a banquet and invited the nobles.
Those who had seen the painting were completely absorbed in giving their critiques.
They spoke only in praise—about its extraordinary worth, who had painted it, how it had come into being, and so on. Behind them, the Emperor watched them contentedly.
Having glimpsed the painting once through the gaps in the crowd, Veronica stood at a distance.
Beside her stood Cassian. He seemed utterly uninterested in the painting.
Glancing at his impatient expression, Veronica watched the tightly packed crowd and wondered how she might soothe Cassian’s mood.
But the opportunity for conversation slipped away as guests who had come to see the painting and others who had come specifically to greet Cassian arrived one after another.
After a rather tedious stretch of time had passed, Cassian suddenly straightened his posture.
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.

I can totally understand the fmc she don’t want fake friends cause she already has a experience where she thought someone was her friend but they where only using her for her status. I mean its always hard to trust people when u been betrayed badly. I can totally understand her having trust issues.
she must be thinking something really romantic is going on between them. If only she knew what her favorite is scheming in that head of hers.
I’m laughing so hard that Magnolia is so innocent and totally oblivious to the conversation, lol.
