Even if it took time, she wanted to find the house and land with her own strength, but now that the variable of pregnancy had emerged, it was better to find another way that suited it.
She endured it for her pride, but pride didn’t feed her. So, why not just let go of that trivial thing?
As Sajun came to mind, Taehee let out a sigh. “Why aren’t you calling?”
In the past, when they were in love, Taehee acted like she would die without Sajun, as if she really liked him.
For two days now, there hadn’t been a single call from Sajun.
It felt like going back to the old days. The time when, no matter what happened, Sajun never contacted her first, when the relationship between A and B was clear.
Do you really not have even a speck of affection for me? Was our 13 years nothing to you?
“Sajun, you’ll regret it a lot if you let me go. So, please don’t do this.”
She confessed her love, even said goodbye, but getting no response meant one of two things. Either there was not a speck of affection, or once again, Taehee was waiting for her to give up first and come back.
I had anticipated it, but when the situation unfolded exactly as expected, it felt bitter.
Knowing that I should cleanly give up, it seemed like the baby in my belly kept whispering not to give up.

“Let’s give it one last try for the sake of our Ilpro.”
Even so, if Sajun still showed no reaction, then I would decide to let go of Kang Sajun for real.
With determination, Taehee made a call to Min Seontae.
Wearing only the upper part of his outfit, Sajun was in a confrontation with another man in the ring.
One was a current player for Road FC, and the other was a fitness enthusiast obsessed with exercise.
The sweaty, muscular upper body shimmered sexily, making it enviable even for Jiwon, who was also a man.
Jiwon glanced down at the belly fat that began to sway after turning thirty.
Should I try starting to exercise again? If I don’t, I might get muscles similar to yours.
After tapping his belly with a firm hand, Jiwon looked up at the ring again.
“…What the.”

Even though Jiwon knew nothing, the active player seemed to be falling behind.
Unlike the player who seemed to be struggling, Sajun, apart from his split lips, looked perfectly fine.
No, more than fine. He looked exquisite, almost like shooting a music video.
As Sajun focused on his opponent, each step he took made his black hair gently sway.
Each punch and kick, when repeated, caused the muscles to explode with momentary energy.
At that moment, the gym director approached Jiwon and said, “Kim Jiwon, what’s going on with Sajun?”
“Why?”
“It’s already the third person since he came back after a long time. If the injury is severe, he can’t even train.”
The director’s face was full of concern.
“And his first opponent is our deputy director, who used to be a champion. You know, right? Players climb into the ring with the determination to die on it rather than surrender. If the upper body touches the ground, it’s over, but if it wasn’t for that rule, an ambulance would have been dispatched.”

Jiwon’s pupils shook violently.
Facing an active player, and moreover, a champion for the third time, Sajun, with only split lips, seemed like a monstrous being that Jiwon couldn’t ignore.
“So, please save me. Even if it’s an excuse, take Sajun out for a while. Today, it seems like he’s here to destroy all our gym members.”
“Ah, still, Sajun takes better care of us than playing games. We all know that there’s no money coming in these days because it’s off-season.”
Jiwon took Sajun’s side. He was an absolute boss who took care of my boss and took responsibility for my future.
“Hehe, well, that’s true, but…”
It was at that moment.
The gazes of the director and Jiwon simultaneously turned to the ring.
With consecutive powerful impacts, the player was staggering.
Taking advantage of the slightest gap, Sajun’s glove swiftly struck the face for the final blow.

“Krruk!”
Thunk. As the player collapsed onto the ring, the emergency bell rang hastily, and the director cursed under his breath.
“Ha, X. Hey, bring Jongwoon out!”
The fallen player staggered and tried to get up again, but the gym director gave a meaningful glance to another player.
Sajun, who still hadn’t moved, was watching the fallen opponent like prey, as if he would attack again the moment he set foot on the ground.
Sharp eyes beneath sweaty hair, angry muscles radiating vitality.
The player trying to get up again was dragged out of the ring.
Only then did Sajun slowly take off the glove he had held in his hand and lightly brushed his sweat-soaked hair.
It was a sight not seen in a long time.
Even during his university days, Sajun, known as a genius, cleverly concealed his fierce nature under the title of genius.
Only Jiwon knew about it.

Despite wanting to fully demonstrate his skills and play as a player, he gave up due to his grandfather’s opposition.
Instead, he enjoyed duels with players in the ring once or twice a month.
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.
