That statement was true. Serin’s mother, who picked her up when she was divorced and had nowhere to go due to her unfaithful husband, was Han Jiseon.
“Then, without any shame, let me ask you a favor.”
“Sure, anything.”
“Do you know Kang Taejun?”
“Kang… Taejun?”
“Yes. Probably because of the incident 20 years ago, there would have been a lot of contact.”
“Oh…”
“It’s a favor. Can you tell him everything you know, just as you know it?”
Although she had assured that she could listen to anything, when she heard a statement she hadn’t thought of, Han Jiseon was slightly taken aback. But soon, Serin’s low voice echoed in her heart.
“When I was young, she promised. She said she would take me to the amusement park I’ve been wanting to go to so much on this birthday. She made such a promise, but my mother didn’t keep it. I lived my whole life carrying that question… in my heart.”
“…”
“At this point, you’re a person with sufficient qualifications.”
A person with sufficient qualifications.
That single phrase stung Han Jiseon’s heart.
Not knowing might be better, but the death of a loved one leaving a lifelong question was as painful as the cruel truth.
“I’m not forcing you. I’m asking. The choice is yours, ma’am.”
Han Jiseon nodded with teary eyes.
And while doing so, it was time for Han Jiseon to go through the boarding procedure to take the plane. Turning back with regret, she still had lingering questions in her heart.
“But… how do you two know each other?”
How could Serin earnestly request like this if they were not close?
However, with her words, Han Jiseon’s questions were neatly resolved.
“He… is my husband.”
“Your husband… you said it with such affection when you called him your husband.”
As Han Jiseon spoke, recalling the emotion of that time, her voice became choked, and even trembled.
But after hearing Han Jiseon’s story, Taejun’s eyes eventually turned red.
He remembered that day vividly. On the day Han Jiseon returned to New York, he declared divorce to her.
But on that day, she met Han Jiseon for him.
Ha… how heartbreaking it must have been.
Even now, the questions she had raised when she announced the divorce lingered in his ears like a ghost.
[Dash] Why… why… are you more hurt than me?The one who had seen his pain first.
Guilt and regret rushed in. He realized that what he thought was the best at that time was a selfish choice stemming from his own inexperienced judgment.
Yes, it was purely his greed. It was harder for him to endure that truth if he stayed by her side. He thought it would get better if he distanced himself a little.
Now he realized that the methods he claimed were for her were ultimately selfish choices because he couldn’t bear that pain.
If he had just been a little more patient.
If he had waited until this truth was revealed.
At least, you wouldn’t have suffered so much.
His mind turned blank. Guilt and regret mixed together, and he couldn’t think of anything.
To him in that state, Han Jiseon extended a warm hand and comforted him.
“You know, fate is so fascinating. Did Mrs. Jeong know? Is that why she took care of Serin so affectionately?”
“…”
“So, live well. Even if it’s just for the memory of your late mother.”
Indeed, it was fate.
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.
