Love Me Just Once (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 157
It didn’t take long to find out who Deos had been referring to. Ophelia spoke to the man who, even after opening the door, couldn’t bring himself to step fully inside the room.
“You may come in.”
Idren entered as though he’d been waiting only for her permission and asked,
“Have you been crying?”
It was obvious just from her face, so she couldn’t lie—but she wasn’t proud of the fact that, at her age, she’d been reduced to tears.
When she didn’t answer, Idren asked nothing further and simply sat down beside her. Ophelia suddenly realized just how much her previous behavior—when he had cried—must have wounded his pride. She’d bluntly asked him if he was crying. And it hadn’t even been out of comfort—more like shock.
“…Next time you cry, I’ll pretend not to notice.”
She meant it sincerely, but Idren didn’t take her words with much gravity.
“It doesn’t matter. I’m used to it.”
Ophelia said nothing in response to his words, which seemed narrow-minded yet oddly not.
Since it wasn’t uncommon for her to fall silent mid-conversation, Idren carried on as if nothing were amiss.
“Were you close to that person?”
“I assumed you’d met Deos beforehand. Didn’t she tell you?”
Everyone entering the palace passed through Idren’s hands, and Deos’s earlier comment had hinted they’d met before.
“I didn’t ask about your relationship with her. I thought you might find it unpleasant.”

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.
