The Tyrant's Terminally-Ill Childhood Friend (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 57
In hindsight, it had been a rather disjointed question. It was so out of the blue that Lowell even wondered whether, in her weakened state, she might be hearing things.
After all, René had been wearing a face full of concern for her health—yet what he actually asked was about her feelings toward the Emperor. She couldn’t help but frown.
“‘Do you love the Emperor?’ Really, René? That’s so random. Why on earth would you ask that all of a sudden?”
“Because your health has worsened.”
“Make sense. What does my health have to do with the Emperor?”
At her sharp retort, René’s brow furrowed as he looked down at her. Without a trace of a smile, he appeared intensely cold and distant. Whenever Lowell saw that expression on René, she was always reminded anew of how astonishingly gentle he was whenever he was with her.
Instead of answering her question, René reached out and brushed his fingertips against her pale cheek.
“You weren’t like this when you were at Martinek.”
“That was just luck… My physician said it wouldn’t be surprising if my condition suddenly worsened.”
His fingertips felt cool—perhaps because fever had flushed her skin. Come to think of it, it had been an awfully long time since she’d felt René’s bare skin against hers. He always wore leather half-gloves, and except for when they were both at the mansion, their interactions usually happened through his shadow demon.
Even at the mansion, they hadn’t been close enough to act casually around each other, so this almost felt like the first time.
‘No, wait—that’s not right. I think it’s happened before.’
But when? Her mind was too foggy from her worsening condition to recall clearly. Lowell slowly closed her eyes and leaned her cheek against René’s cool hand. After a brief silence, his voice lazily reached her ear once more.
“It’s strange that you, who were perfectly fine at Martinek, suddenly deteriorated like this. You’re naturally sturdier than an ordinary person—unless you’re actually ill. So I wonder if it might be psychological.”
“I’ve never thought of myself as sturdy—that’s funny… There’s no psychological issue. If anything, it’s just what I mentioned to my brother about my birthday.”
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.
