“Uh, do you not like it?”
It wasn’t until she heard the hesitant voice that Olivia suddenly snapped out of her thoughts. The child was looking at Olivia with an anxious face, wondering what if she got rejected.
“It’s too,”
Olivia said, raising her head.
“Too beautiful.”
“Really?”
The child brightened up as Olivia accepted the thread anklet.
With a relieved sigh and even a cute little laugh, Olivia affectionately stroked the child’s head.
The surprised child looked at the angelic lady.
Feeling proud and satisfied with the beautifully smiling figure, the child, who had become proud, chattered away.
“I’m really lucky that you said it’s pretty. Mom will be happy. She always says thank you to you.”
“Will you convey my thanks too?”
The child nodded with a grateful expression. One of the children said as if bubbling up.
“Our mom can make it too! I’ll give it to you later, Lady!”
Olivia smiled a little. In the meantime, the children, excited about recent events in this area, looked around Yenneb Street.
“You did well to come to Yenneb! We can see the lady, not wear robes during the day, and play freely.”
“That’s right! Me too! My aunt said this place is trustworthy, so I came here with difficulty.”
“I heard about this place from a grandpa, and it’s so nice!”
Grandpa? Was that grandpa also someone with green eyes?
But before Olivia could ponder, the children’s topic quickly changed. Soft laughter appeared on Olivia’s face as she heard their lively voices.
People on Yenneb Street, who were all holding their breath, breathed a sigh of relief and smiled inwardly.
Even though the lady was undoubtedly a noble who only used good things, they didn’t expect her to refuse such a thread anklet.
When people admired the lady even more for looking at it more precious, Olivia touched the thread anklet, thinking of something else.
No matter how much she looked, it was strikingly similar to her mother’s heirloom that she hadn’t seen since it was taken away by the nanny fourteen years ago. Despite searching from Lurehern Street to handicraft workshops, she had never seen anything similar to this thread anklet.
Even though they all had green eyes, she thought the lady would only use good things as a noble. However, when people admired her even more, Olivia played with the thread anklet, thinking of something else.
Could there be another secret related to my birth or people with green eyes? Olivia thought vaguely.
But the thought didn’t last long. Feeling the sensation of the thread anklet sliding through her fingers, it vividly brought back memories of her mother, who used to stroke her head when she was very young.
Her mother, who was as beautiful as a flower. Her mother, who always sang sweet songs like a canary.
Olivia reminisced. As she thought about the pitch of the song her mother used to sing, the sweet voice, like a canary, began to softly sketch the melody.
“What’s this?”
“Isn’t it a song?”
“I’ll get scolded by Mom if I do that.”
The children, who were speaking as if it were strange, gradually fell silent. It was when they looked at Olivia with eyes filled with admiration.
“Who is it? Who is singing?”
Suddenly, someone shouted from beyond the window. When their eyes met, Olivia saw the eyes of a woman extending her face through the window trembling.
As if frightened.
The woman’s face turned gray when she saw Olivia. When the woman, seemingly at a loss, came out to the street, a few people around also approached. Everyone couldn’t lift their heads as if this situation was uncomfortable.
“I’m sorry. We didn’t know that the lady was singing.”
“Is singing prohibited in Yenneb?”
“No, it’s not. We were just trying to prevent any unexpected situations. It’s just that…”
The person talking glanced at the children for a moment.
When the children, looking confused, distanced themselves at someone’s call, the woman spoke.
“…They say we have the blood of the Muhui. So, we tend to stay away from singing or dancing more, just in case we attract more unfavorable…”
The woman paused for a moment, looking at Olivia.
“…attention.”
Even Olivia could easily guess what the woman omitted.
Violence, insults, or even worse, disdain.
“I will go in now.”
The woman bowed to Olivia and went inside the house. Watching her back, Olivia suddenly recalled what Dian had said before.
“…Aren’t you the only one who doesn’t face persecution just because you have green eyes?”
Such strong contempt that singing itself was not allowed. Prejudice about the Muhui bloodline.
“…I couldn’t even sing freely just because of the color of my eyes.”
Olivia muttered with a heavy heart. And she looked at Yenneb Street.
The realization hit Olivia’s heart like a wave—it was not just this street’s problem; it was a problem with the whole structure.
Olivia scrutinized the people on the street, and now, with their eyes revealed, the children who were jumping around one by one. At that moment, a strange thought crossed Olivia’s mind.
There were undoubtedly people with green eyes among the Muhui. But not all Muhui had green eyes.
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.
