He was walking through an endless tunnel. It was pitch dark, with no distinguishable features even a step ahead. Nevertheless, Taeseok continued to walk.
Suddenly, he thought about how much time had passed. He had to go for the shoot.
It felt like there was barely 10 minutes left, and at the same time, it felt like several years had passed. Sometimes, the surroundings brightened as if floating, but it was brief, and darkness dominated the space again.
Taeseok had been sleeping for three days, but he hadn’t been in a deep sleep all this time. There were frequent attempts to wake up, and some of them were almost successful. However, the faint remnants of the medicine and fatigue put him back to sleep.
A murmuring voice echoed through the walls.
A crying voice.
“… Oppa, are you okay?”
It sounded like Summer. It seemed like she had come.
Taeseok laboriously lifted his eyelids, but they didn’t flutter like concrete. His body didn’t respond at all.
“…Please… just confirm.”
Damn. Why is she crying? Choi Yeoreum.
Taeseok fell back into sleep, gathering his forehead with a frown.
When he opened his eyes again, there was an unfamiliar but pleasant fragrance of nameless flowers at the tip of his nose. It was a delightful scent that reminded him of spring.
Is it really the right time to open my eyes?
He rolled his eyeballs and deliberately blinked them hard. As his vision gradually brightened, the space came into view. It was an unfamiliar but familiar white ceiling.
It was the hospital where he had lain helplessly two years ago.
Only now did memories pour out like water. There was an accident during the shoot, and the vehicle overturned, causing him to lose consciousness. Feeling around, he noticed bandages wrapped around his abdomen. Fortunately, there wasn’t much pain.
He gradually awakened each sensation in his body. He moved his head and legs, felt the returning senses slowly, and raised his arm, but something caught his hand.
It was Summer.
More precisely, it was Summer’s hand. Summer was holding Taeseok’s hand and sleeping.
This scene, which was damn crazy, seemed like a dream. He had dreamt an incredibly realistic dream and eventually summoned Choi Yeoreum in that dream. At this point, it seemed like I’m really going crazy.
Taeseok cursed inwardly.
‘Well, if it’s my dream, I can do whatever I want.’
After removing his hand from Summer’s, he gently caressed her face. Then, while she was asleep, she twitched and opened her eyes, lifting her head.
Slowly widening pupils looked at Taeseok. Tears welled up in his eyes, expanding the pupils. Summer covered his mouth with both hands.
“It’s too vivid.”
After a few days, Taeseok spoke with a hoarse voice.
“Ah, you’re awake. You’re awake. Thank you. Luckily. Oppa, can you see? Do you recognize me?”
Summer urgently held his hand, tickling her face with his hand. Tears were messily gathered.
“I was so worried. I’m sorry. I’m sorry for leaving you alone. I was so foolish. I made you like this.”
Summer cried her heart out.
The tears pained Taeseok, and he frowned. If it’s a dream he created, it should only show a pretty smiling face; why is it crying, causing heartache, is incomprehensible.
“I broke up for Oppa’s sake. I’m sorry. I was hurt too, but I didn’t know Oppa would be this ruined. I love you. I’m sorry. I was wrong. Ugh… sorry….”
Summer is crying. Continuously.
Taeseok moved his hands and feet once again, fully waking up. It wasn’t a dream.
In reality, Choi Yeoreum was crying.
“Yeoreum.”
“Yeah… ugh, yeah.”
Taeseok’s narrowed forehead didn’t seem to relax easily.
“Thud.”
Taeseok moved, raising his upper body. As he did, Summer quickly got up and helped him. Taeseok slightly smiled, resisting Summer’s touch and using the bed remote for support. At the moment, Summer seemed to lack the strength even to lift a spoon.
“Don’t cry. I’m sorry.”
Even if he apologized endlessly, it seemed insufficient. I just…
“I apologize to you every day. I’m sorry for leaving you without knowing anything. So, don’t cry.”
“No. You apologized last time too. I’m sorry. I did wrong. I promised to love you without any secrets, but in the end, I made a lot of secrets and left. I’m sorry, Oppa. I ended up ruining everything.”
Summer shook her head, denying his apology. Taeseok quietly raised his hand to wipe away the tears. Summer overlapped her hands with Taeseok’s, holding onto them.
“…By the way, Choi Yeoreum. What did you say a little while ago?”
Unless his ears were severely injured, he questioned hearing something unreasonable. If he didn’t mishear, then certainly.
For example, “I love you.” It sounded like he heard the same words.
Even while crying, Summer didn’t let go of Taeseok’s hand.
“I’m sorry. I said I’m sorry.”
“Other than that.”
Using his finger to wipe away tears, Taeseok asked again.
“Other than that. Next.”
“I… I love you…”
“Say it again.”
“I love you. Ugh. I love you. I’m sorry.”
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.
