Three days after the suicide incident at the lake, an article was published.
The article’s title was “Affair Woman who Murdered the Heir of S Corporation and Committed Suicide.”
The content was as shocking as the title.
A naive and innocent daughter from a rural area seduced, took away her father’s fortune, and swapped her name and life with the wife, even going so far as to swap the name and life of the newborn daughter with the mistress’s daughter—a drama involving the S Corporation heir and the mistress that plunged one woman into ruin.
The public was enraged, and though only mentioned by initials in the article, those familiar with S Corporation knew it was Song Hyun Electronics.
Of course, Surmun Group was not mentioned in the article at all.
The entire nation vented their anger, and with the uncovering of the past of the deceased couple, the witch hunt continued for a while.
Amidst the investigations based on the truth, Song Hyun Electronics, engulfed in controversy, remained silent.
This was also part of the agreement made when Yongjin met with Chairman Min.
Regrettably, shifting the blame onto the deceased son and mistress, Chairman Min persuaded Yongjin that feigning ignorance and withdrawing from the controversy would not harm the corporate image and stock prices.
Although the son committed the crime, it was Chairman Min’s decision to build the Songhyun 3rd factory on the land purchased for a low price, knowing about it.
Meanwhile, the Surmun side actively responded to protect Tae-hee and her mother.
After releasing a brief interview of the belatedly reclaimed name and life of the mother and daughter, each media outlet announced that they would no longer cover them as news, hoping for the belated happiness of the mother and daughter.
While there were no perfect secrets, they rigorously controlled the media to prevent the leakage of Ok-hee and Tae-hee’s identities.
The deceased have no voice, and after more than a month, the public’s interest gradually waned.
Around that time, successive entertainment industry issues, prepared in advance, erased the public’s attention from the mother and daughter.
As they dealt with the aftermath, Sa-jun’s desired wedding date on the last day of October became the date for the formal meeting.
Arriving at Heegu’s hometown, Ok-hee had summoned the courage to come for her daughter but was in a state of deep fear.
The current situation was not only embarrassing and awkward but also filled her with guilt.
Regaining her name, her life was taken away like a fool, and the guilt of creating her daughter like that weighed heavily on her. The self-loathing of not deserving to be a mother in this position also surged.
Heegu, meeting Ok-hee with open arms, warmly welcomed her.
“Oh, the son-in-law is here!”
Heegu willingly took Ok-hee’s trembling hand first, expressing gratitude continuously.
She thanked Ok-hee for raising her daughter well despite the difficult circumstances. In response to the words of gratitude, Ok-hee burst into tears, saying that if it weren’t for her daughter, she wouldn’t have dated and would have aged alone, looking at her grandson and feeling guilty about herself and her son, which moved Heegu.
To Ok-hee, Yongjin handed a handkerchief and teased her that now only happy things remained, and Tae-hee playfully taunted Ok-hee, asking why she looked so happy on this joyful day.
Upon this, with tears streaming down her face, Ok-hee said with teary eyes,
“These are tears of joy. Can’t I shed tears of joy?”
“If you cry like this at the meeting, won’t my mom sob uncontrollably when we enter the wedding hall?”
In response to Tae-hee’s words, Ok-hee lightly patted his back, saying he had no words to express his feelings without hurting her.
Thus, Ok-hee stopped her tears, and finally, the meal began.
During the meal, the topic of marriage did not come up.
Discussions revolved around the taste of the food, preferences, and occasional bragging about their children. Laughter was interspersed throughout.
It was the start of a not-so-bad formal meeting.
After the meal, they decided to have tea under the cool autumn breeze in the garden gazebo.
Heegu praised Ok-hee, comparing her to his son Yongjin.
“In such unfavorable conditions, raising our son-in-law and daughter-in-law without giving up is a task worthy of my son-in-law’s respect. This is why they say maternal love and paternal love are different, don’t you think? Unlike my son-in-law, who had nothing in the past, this guy, who has everything, pretended not to know his precious son for almost 30 years, looking out for his wife.”
“Why do you bring up that story again, Father?”
“Your wrongdoing is your wrongdoing! Admit it like a man and learn from your father-in-law!”
When Heegu made a sharp comment, Yongjin quickly adjusted his expression and solemnly said to Ok-hee,
“It’s not because of my father, but I truly respect my father-in-law.”
To Ok-hee, who didn’t know how to react to the compliments from both of them, Heegu kindly smiled and said again,
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.
