He discovered the circumstances of siphoning off scholarships and loans by selecting fake scholarship students.
It was a result obtained by forgoing sleep and meals for several days.
There was no problem even if his father suddenly woke up.
He judged that he would not call back into the company the son who had embezzled slush funds and did drugs.
Of course, if his mind was in the right place.
However, the existence of his father always hit Nok Hyun’s back of the head with unexpected events.
Nok Hyun remembered the day his father brought Cheop home. That day, he stood up to his father for the first time.
His mother was already exhausted from struggling.
Then, his father, Cheolhan, slapped Nok Hyun’s cheek.
He might have hoped for this moment from the time he saw Yoo Ran proudly scanning the house, and Jiwon, hiding behind Yoo Ran and gazing around with fascinated eyes.
Having prepared, Nok Hyun fed Stella and stroked her head. At that moment, Stella suddenly started barking fiercely.
Stella, who had never barked once since he brought her home.
“Shush, quiet.”
Stella, who had stopped barking, started dragging at Nok Hyun’s hem this time.
“Why, are you bored?”
Stella, who seemed to be frustrated, chewed at his hem again and barked loudly.
Nok Hyun, who had been staring at Stella, called Taein.
Tae In’s phone was off.
Nok Hyun checked the live camera on his phone. He turned off the screen showing nothing and clicked on the recorded video.
Nok Hyun, who had been staring at the screen, frowned and called Lee Kyung.
Even as an adult, Tae In often thought about her childhood.
Her family was wealthy, and Tae In was pretty, smart, and kind.
Perhaps because of that, Tae In was always loved. By friends, by adults, and by her family.
It was the happiest time in Tae In’s life. It was the only time when she neither hated anyone nor was hated by anyone.
Her troubles started when her mother decided to start a new life abroad.
Perhaps because of her mother, her father became a different person and was unusually cold to Tae In.
Around the time she sensed something was off, Tae In was forced to study abroad.
Returning home for the holidays, Tae In was taken aback by the dramatically changed atmosphere.
All the staff working at home had been replaced, Se Ji’s mother was acting like the lady of the house, and her room was occupied by Se Ji. The gifts her parents had brought from their overseas trips and the shoes and bags she had collected were being used by Se Young as if they were hers.
Se Ji’s mother, Young Mi, was originally a kitchen staff at the house.
Se Ji and Se Young were her daughters. They were of a similar age and had been close since childhood.
In the absence of her family, Tae In filled the void with Young Mi, Se Ji, and Se Young.
However, while Tae In was abroad, they had busily filled Tae In’s vacant position and had taken her place.
There was no room for Tae In to interfere.
Ironically, Tae In still had the desire to be loved as a family member.
Even though her family treated Tae In as invisible, she tried. At least until she saw their true colors.
And then Arin was born.
Arin, unlike her sisters, was gentle and fragile.
She resembled Tae In’s childhood a lot. The only difference was that unlike Tae In at the time, Arin was not loved.
Arin grew increasingly withdrawn, and Se Ji and Se Young’s status only grew.
Tae In decided to become strong. To become unbreakable by anyone.
She achieved results, got rid of weaknesses, and thought things were going smoothly.
But that was a misjudgment. After all, she almost got killed.
Tae In got up and looked outside. Unlike before, big men were guarding the front.
Seeing the men standing firmly as if to suppress her hope of escape, Tae In despaired.
They would be hired by Se Ji, or Young Gap, so it would be clearly difficult to persuade them with any words.
Then, a scream came from outside.
It was a man’s voice. Sounds of something breaking and shattering could also be heard.
Was there a fight? If not, could it be…
“Seo Tae In, are you here?”
The door opened with a bang.
The owner of the voice that called Tae In was Lee Kyung.
“Lee Kyung?”
“Accidents, amnesia, confinement in a mental hospital. Seo Tae In’s life has been quite eventful, hasn’t it?”
Lee Kyung spoke and then laughed. Lee Kyung, who made such a remark, had blood smeared on her hands, and her clothes were a total mess.
“Your life has also been quite eventful, Lee Kyung.”
At Tae In’s unusual tone, Lee Kyung tilted her head but seemed to prioritize escape over questioning, grabbing Tae In’s wrist and leaving the prisonlike hospital room.
Outside, bodyguards of similar stature were fighting each other.
After spotting Tae In, Lee Kyung kicked a man who approached and created distance, then started running.
Tae In ran outside without even properly putting on her shoes.
She didn’t even have the leisure to calmly wait for the elevator, so she rushed down the stairs. The footsteps chasing her made her heart pound like it was having an attack.
Black sedans imposingly lined up, and in the middle of them, leaning against a car, Nok Hyun came into her sight.
Nok Hyun approached and embraced Tae In.
The cool scent and the cherry fragrance mingling inbetween had a strong effect on her.
“Are you okay?”
At Nok Hyun’s voice, tears poured from Tae In’s eyes.
Why did I leave you, and why are you in front of me again?
“Let’s go, to our home.”
Our home.
At his sweet and affectionate words, Tae In blankly looked at Nok Hyun.
Having been alone ever since becoming an adult, surrounded by enemies, and lonely, Nok Hyun had created a calm daily life for Tae In.
It was also nice to receive a cake so sweet it would rot your teeth on a birthday nobody cared about, and to have meals together.
‘If our marriage is a business tool, then I am confident I can be the best partner.’
Nok Hyun’s words of becoming the best partner, not the best husband, also appealed to her.
She may have liked him from the moment she saw him.
It was sufficient reason to like a man who had better conditions than her, was handsome, and didn’t bother her.
He knew when to laugh appropriately, and as long as he didn’t cross the line, he seemed like he would be on her side for the duration of their marriage.
But at some point, the man who replaced cigarettes with illfitting cherry flavored candies, and who took care of Tae In at uncomfortable family dinners, found a place in her heart and shook Tae In.
Nok Hyun hugged Tae In and sat her in the back seat of the car. Lee Kyung promptly started the car.
As if it were a matter of course, Nok Hyun sat next to Tae In, looking over her for any injuries, and her heart painfully throbbed at the sight of him.
Tae In made a point to avoid his gaze and looked out the window.
I know that Gang Nok Hyun isn’t on my side.
He might even be closer to being an enemy.
But as far as I know, Gang Nok Hyun is the sweetest enemy in the world.

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.
