The Empress' Scandalous Paramour (5 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 57
“Gladly.”
Already, many people were dancing to the slow waltz tempo.
I took Shailo’s hand and slipped in among them—and instantly, it was as if the sea itself parted before us.
‘Oh… Did they notice me?’
Well, with twelve empresses already present, the sudden appearance of a thirteenth would naturally raise suspicion about my authenticity.
I placed one hand on Shailo’s shoulder and the other gently facing his, moving softly in rhythm.
Shailo’s leading was quite skilled, making this dance genuinely enjoyable after so long.
‘Come to think of it, I’ve never taught Meriem how to dance.’
I should teach him when I return.
He’s so adept with his body—he’d probably dance quite well.
‘But why place such great meaning on something as simple as teaching music and art?’
I didn’t fully understand Meriem’s deep affection for me, since I hadn’t done anything particularly grand for him.
I hadn’t destroyed an entire nation for him, nor draped him in a golden crown and a sable-fur cloak.
I hadn’t even named this luxurious cruise ship after him, let alone bought him a plot of land anywhere.
I’d given Meriem no tangible gifts.
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.
