The Price is Everything of Yours (76 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 82
From the moment Neris became a nominal orphan, Nelusion began subtly sending her necessities.
But they weren’t truly essential items for Neris—rather, things a duke’s son would consider tasteful gestures, like handkerchiefs or expensive slippers.
Such gifts were awkward to refuse. She couldn’t even bring herself to use them without feeling resentful.
Thus, tucked away in a corner of Neris’s small room sat a chest filled with Nelusion’s gifts, placed there specifically to keep them out of sight as much as possible.
At the mention of Nelusion’s name, Cledwin’s eyes darkened with displeasure. Could that fellow really still be oblivious to how much he was disliked?
“I’ve left him alone so far because I assumed he had some ulterior motive, but if it bothers you, I’ll stop accepting anything he sends immediately.”
“It’s fine. He really does have an agenda. Besides, it’s been less than a month anyway.”
Even the most self-centered person wouldn’t keep insisting on warm correspondence with a new governess who clearly wasn’t welcome.
Just recalling Nelusion’s recent letters—ostensibly checking in kindly while subtly probing whether Neris would consider formal adoption into a cadet branch—was genuinely tiresome.
Nelusion’s intentions were painfully obvious.
Among her peers in the nobility, Neris was already fairly well-known.
And since she belonged to the Sheridan faction, her name was also familiar to the elders of the capital.
Now, Neris Trude alone was valuable enough to serve as a useful tool in marriage negotiations. If she even nominally bore the Elantria name, her worth would be beyond question.
Of course, it seemed Nelusion didn’t yet consider her valuable enough to formally register her into the main house.
‘I need to leave quickly before that happens.’
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.

The male lead being so proud of his wife is honestly adorable, even when he gets jealous.
And the female lead is so elegant and beautiful—I can’t wait to see this scene illustrated
Haha, did the ML really just say that to the FL? He’s so cute when he gets a little jealous.
Can’t wait for next chapter
The ML is so considerate of his wife. He treats her with so much care and gentleness, even when she doesn’t say a word—he just understands her. He’s honestly so perfect, I can’t 😭
I really hope the FL can overcome these painful feelings soon. I can’t bear to watch her suffer this much. 💔
