“Grandfather Yul wants to meet me?”
She had asked Yeon-hee to arrange a meeting with him a while ago, but today, she didn’t want to hear those words.
Would it have been less shocking if she had heard it tomorrow?
She had been overwhelmed dealing with consecutive incidents since last night. Seo-yeon felt dizzy at the strong call of a powerful presence.
Was it that her heart wasn’t ready yet? Or should she ask him to wait until her heart was ready?
Various thoughts crossed her mind in a short moment.
But delaying it wouldn’t make the situation any better.
“Would it be better to face it head-on?”
Realizing that she was comparing love and marriage to a business deal, Seo-yeon felt disheartened without being able to express it.
[Is this too sudden?]“No, it’s not.”
[If it’s too burdensome, I can somehow talk to Father for you.]While grateful for Yeon-hee’s consideration, she was also worried about what harm might come to her from speaking with her.
If she couldn’t avoid it, she had no choice but to move forward more confidently.
“It’s okay. If you let me know the time and place, I’ll go.”
[Father prefers to meet at home, but the location is up to you.]“I’m fine with anything.”
Actually, meeting in the middle of the street would be fine. After all, the important thing was the conversation that would take place.
Yeon-hee, who hesitated for a moment, opened her mouth with difficulty.
[Father might make you uncomfortable. Even if he can’t exert much force, I’ll be by your side.]Her heart, which had been tightly curled up and crumpled, felt a sudden release at Yeon-hee’s words.
“Just hearing your words gives me strength. Thank you, Mother.”
[Honestly, I won’t be much help. I turn into a coward in front of Father.]At Yeon-hee’s words about being a coward, for a moment, thoughts of Kwon Yul came to Seo-yeon. The words he had said to her when she let go of the difficult emotions for the first time.
In Yeon-hee’s words, who resembled her beloved, there was somehow comfort.
“If it’s okay with you, can I come to your house that day? I want to hear some precautions about Grandfather.”
[Sure. And about Yul… ha. I’m sorry. It feels like I’m telling you to lie to Seo-yeon.]“No, it’s okay.”
Still feeling sorry, Yeon-hee added a word of thanks for understanding.
Seo-yeon didn’t miss the mixture of apology and gratitude.
“I… Mother. Just to clarify, about the rumors of an affair with CEO Choi Min-hyuk.”
When the atmosphere wasn’t bad, she felt she should somehow make an explanation, not an excuse.
“It’s not true. Absolutely not.”
[…….]“It will eventually be revealed, but someone played a prank in the meantime.”
Even if it revealed that it was Bora’s doing, Seo-yeon thought it would be more effective if Bora confessed herself.
“I’m asking you to believe me, even if it seems like I’m forcing you.”
Yeon-hee remained silent for a moment.
‘Did I think wrong?’
Since the atmosphere wasn’t good, Seo-yeon considered bringing Bora from the warehouse to have a three-way meeting with Yeon-hee.
[If I wasn’t surprised, it would be a lie… but I believe you.]“Really?”
[If the affair rumors were true, Won-jun’s mother would have mentioned it in passing.]While relieved, Seo-yeon waited for Yeon-hee’s next words.
[We don’t know what will happen between the two of them in the future. Yul wants to observe a bit with you. So, even if not supportive, I’ll try to understand.]“Thank you. Thank you so much. Mother.”
Although Yeon-hee’s expression was not visible, her tone and the atmosphere seemed more friendly than when they first met.
At that moment, the anxious feeling that had been trembling in response to the call from his grandfather gradually found its place again.
Han Gyeol’s heart felt at ease. Finally, they could exchange warm greetings and share everyday stories.
With Yeon-hee’s assurance to send the address soon, the call concluded, and Seo-yeon’s eyes lit up with enthusiasm.
Dealing with the rumors about her relationship with Min-hyuk seemed to pass without any issues. Although it was somewhat ambiguous, Yeon-hee’s clear indication of not openly opposing was a positive signal.
Upon this, the uneasy feeling that had lingered disappeared completely.
Seo-yeon focused her attention on how to conquer his grandfather, as if she were someone assigned a new mission.
Tap, tap, tap…
Seo-yeon, who had been tapping the desk with her sparkling nails, quickly picked up the phone.
“Secretary Choi, please bring Jin Bo-ra from the warehouse. Right now.”
As soon as she hung up the office phone, Seo-yeon swiftly pulled out her mobile phone and began tapping the keys.
To meet the absolute authority figure of the Kwon Yul family required thorough preliminary research.
Seo-yeon wrote down specific questions and sent them back to Hojin. Soon after, they arranged to meet.
Between a few texts with Hojin, a knock on the door was heard.
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.
