The hotel’s celebration party was canceled. Park Chairman, with a twisted face, grasped onto another trivial matter this time.
“Why is my great-grandson still called Yoo Siwoo and not Cha Siwoo?!”
Having repeated the same repertoire for the past two years, Jung-hyuk let out a long sigh.
“I told you. I promised Yoo Dajeong not to make Cha Siwoo. Yoo Siwoo is Yoo Siwoo. Yoo Siwoo likes being Yoo Siwoo, so why is Grandma like this?”
As he expressed his irritation, Dajeong intervened, saying, “Dear, please,” gently patting his back. After waiting for the heated atmosphere to settle a bit, Dajeong opened her mouth.
“Grandma, take it easy. If Siwoo wants to follow Dad’s last name later, it’s not too late to change it then.”
“In any case, there’s nothing pleasing this old woman’s heart! Anyway, if it’s not Cha, I won’t pass on the company. Keep that in mind, all of you!”
In response to Chairman Park’s command, Jung-hyuk burst into laughter with a carefree tone.
“Grandma, don’t worry. Siwoo is going to be a tiger caretaker. Originally, he wanted to be a dinosaur caretaker, but there are no dinosaurs. The child is realistic.”
“What?”
Chairman Park sighed. A child is a child. However, if the child’s father is like that, well. Chairman Park found the child useful in running the company.
While the elderly were in turmoil, Jung-hyuk continued to laugh heartily.
“And, Grandma. My heart decides whether to pass it on or not. Why can’t Grandma give it up? You’ll die when the time comes.”
“Mr. Chajunghyuk!”
While Dajeong was greatly surprised by her husband’s lack of tact, Chairman Park’s evaluation swayed again.
“You’re still calling your husband by his name like that?!”
“Sorry, Grandma. I’m embarrassed… I just…”
Dajeong let out an awkward laugh. She thought she had improved a lot regarding the issue of addressing names, but whenever she was surprised or embarrassed, the old habits popped up.
“The whims of old people. If I don’t call him Chajunghyuk, then what should I call him?”
Jung-hyuk stiffened. Unseen by him, Dajeong discreetly grabbed his sleeve.
“Siwoo’s dad…”
Unseen by him, Dajeong discreetly grabbed his sleeve. If you keep doing that, the more your grandmother will dislike only me, so stop.
But this man always lacks sensitivity.
“My name is my brand. Grandma said that at last year’s ceremony in front of all the headquarters employees. She said people should be called by their names. If you’re only called someone’s wife or someone’s dad, you lose your true value. But when it comes out like this, it becomes a word that Chairman would use to scare employees… What do you think, Jongsun?”
“Oh, my, in the world! I’m so happy right now that I can’t control my expression. What should I do, dear?”
Hyeongsuk couldn’t hide her joy. She grabbed her husband’s shoulders, bouncing her buttocks on the sofa, expressing her good mood. But no matter how she expressed it, it wasn’t enough to arouse him.
Seeing Hyeongsuk’s delighted appearance, Su-gyeong, who was relieved inwardly, sat side by side with Do-jun, making eye contact and smiling.
Two days ago, the two who returned to Korea immediately sought out their parents to obtain permission for marriage. Su-gyeong’s house was the first place they visited yesterday to pay their respects.
Feeling grateful for calling back the daughter who seemed unlikely to return from the United States, the prospective father-in-law and mother-in-law treated Do-jun with care. They didn’t even know that he was the culprit who originally sent her to the United States.
As expected, the happiest person is Hyeongsuk.
A lawyer daughter-in-law. Finally bringing a legal professional daughter-in-law into the house left no room for complaints.
Moreover, she’s not an ordinary daughter. She’s the youngest daughter of the director of the Han River Hospital, so there was no way she would leave her son-in-law’s house empty-handed.
“What are you going to do after getting married? Will Father set up a law firm for you?”
In Hyeongsuk’s cautious voice, a subtle expectation shone through. In response to Hyeongsuk’s question, Su-gyeong smiled widely and nodded.
“My father doesn’t consider in-laws as children to be taken care of. Why would he set up a law firm for someone who is not his child? If I get married, I might do free legal consultations for an NGO organization.”
“Free…?”
Ding. Gracefully lifting a teacup, Hyeongsuk, who made a squeaky noise, couldn’t say anything for a moment. Soon, she regained her composure and scratched her head.
“Wait a minute. Did you just say free legal advice?”
“Yes. Mr. Do-jun will be working as a senior official in a volunteer organization that builds houses for free. I should contribute too.”
“….”
With the teacup suspended in the air, Hyeongsuk froze in place.
After the intimate family meal ended, Su-gyeong went into the kitchen with Hyeongsuk to prepare fruit. Hyeongsuk didn’t miss the opportunity when they were alone.
“Hey… Sae-a. Still, wouldn’t it be a waste to squander your talent like this? My dream was to have a lawyer daughter-in-law….”
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.
