“Mr. Yool, you know.”
Seo Yeon first called out his name.
Then she pondered what words would be best to start with.
‘Do you know Ms. Park Shia? Did you two ever flirt before?’
Then she suddenly found it amusing.
It’s like they’re a couple who kiss, truly acting like a real girlfriend and boyfriend.
As Seo Yeon’s eyes shook intensely while looking at Kwon Yool, he asked,
“Why? Did you leave something in the car?”
“No, it’s not that…”
Suddenly, a person holding a black bag in both hands passed by Seo Yeon’s side.
At that moment, Kwon Yool gently wrapped his arm around Seo Yeon’s shoulder and pulled her into his embrace.
The refreshing scent of wood grazed the tip of her nose.
As she smelled the familiar scent she liked, Seo Yeon closed her eyes momentarily, then opened them again.
‘Wasting this precious time would be a foolish thing to do.’
Seo Yeon reminded herself that she had been indoors for two weeks due to an injury.
“Mr. Yool, follow me closely. It would be a problem if you looked elsewhere.”
With sincerity in her words, he tightened the grip on the hand he was holding.
Seo Yeon, whose mind had changed, began to thoroughly enjoy their market date.
They roamed around the row of shops that lined the narrow path, marveling at a variety of fabrics.
Seo Yeon was so engrossed in looking at fabrics with subtly different shades that she lost track of time, considering how many new products had arrived since she last visited.
Even Kwon Yool kept asking questions about the types of fabric rolled up in large rolls, as this was his first time visiting a fabric market.
“Mr. Han, did this come in on Monday?”
“The cost is higher than expected.”
“Ahaha. Everyone knows you’re raking in money, yet you still complain.”
“Who’s spreading such rumors? I’m just barely getting by!”
Seo Yeon didn’t back down.
She touched the new fabrics herself and carefully compared their colors.
Kwon Yool leaned forward more and more, as if he found Seo Yeon’s haggling amusing.
In front of high-quality fabrics imported from England, Seo Yeon pondered for a long time.
“If the limited edition jackets for this fall get a good response, we’ll add more.”
Seo Yeon spoke while receiving the product numbers and samples of the fabrics she had agonizingly chosen.
“It’s quite something that a boss like you personally comes to look at the fabrics.”
The fabric shop owner, who had known Seo Yeon for a long time, handed out both affectionate praise and unreserved jokes.
“Mr. Han, would you like to meet my doctor nephew?”
At the urgency of trying to introduce a man to Seo Yeon, Kwon Yool’s eyebrows instantly furrowed.
“Mr. Han, save your golden doctor nephew for later. Please just clear the back space here.”
As Seo Yeon smoothly brushed it off, the fabric shop owner’s gaze turned to Kwon Yool.
“Is he an employee? Or a boyfriend?”
The fabric shop owner gestured toward Kwon Yool, who stood behind Seo Yeon.
“What do you think?”
“Let’s see. He has an extraordinary look and aura… A bodyguard?”
Seo Yeon chuckled and took a quick glance at Kwon Yool.
Then the previously quiet Kwon Yool abruptly stepped in.
“He’s my boyfriend.”
“!”
Seo Yeon’s eyes widened at his courageous declaration.
Kwon Yool stared at Seo Yeon as if to say he was closer to being a boyfriend than a bodyguard.
“Ahaha. You’ve gotten a boyfriend since I last saw you, huh? Quite… reliable.”
As the fabric shop owner hastily changed the topic, Seo Yeon added another scoop.
“In commemoration of bringing such a large boyfriend, please write the quote at this price.”
As Seo Yeon quickly pressed the calculator, the fabric shop owner snatched it away and tapped on it again.
The two haggled over the price for quite some time.
But as they had been doing business for more than just a day or two, they eventually both compromised a little.
After the transaction ended, Seo Yeon purchased a small amount of high-quality imported shirt fabric.
“I’ll carry it.”
As Kwon Yool quickly took the load, Seo Yeon gently grabbed his hand.
“We’ve bought everything we need. Let’s put away the stuff and go eat.”
“Sounds good.”
The two loaded the black bag into the car and began contemplating what to eat.
“Let’s just have tteokbokki and mini kimbap.”
Seo Yeon led Kwon Yool past motorcycles laden with goods to his usual street food stall.
They both happily shared tteokbokki and mini kimbap, the latter accompanied by mustard sauce, on a plastic plate wrapped in a plastic bag.
They then roamed around, eating sweet street snacks until 3 in the morning.
Both had eaten so much that there was no trace left of the food as they roamed the night streets.
“Are your legs hurting?”
Kwon Yool asked as Seo Yeon’s walking pace started to slow.
“My heels hurt because I’m wearing high heels.”
Looking at Seo Yeon’s reddened feet, Kwon Yool bent over.
“Climb on.”
“I can’t, I’m heavy.”
Despite Seo Yeon’s quick hand movements to decline, Kwon Yool did not stand up from his crouched position.
“No, seriously, I’m heavy. Huh? Move. Uh, why won’t you budge?”
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.
