We sat in the grassy field where you can see the meadow where the rainbow rises, facing the blowing wind.
And I placed the predrawn rosemary in the center. I couldn’t get rosemary all of a sudden, so I cut out rosemary flowers on paper last night.
“The game we’re going to play from now on is this.”
I handed over the drawn rosemary to Sicar and Kian.
“The flower language of rosemary is the happiness of the family. The person who takes off one flower at a time in order from this stem with the heart for the happiness of our family, and says that he loves the person on the right when all the flowers are off.”
The person on the right side of Kian was none other than Sicar. Kian looked to the right and sighed, then looked at me on his left and smiled.
“Okay.”
“Then, shall I start and take off one flower from the stem?”
That’s how the game started. We started with me and turned to the right to take off one flower at a time, and as planned, Kian was caught.
Before Kian plucked the remaining flower, he sighed once, bowed his head and said ‘love…’ and then turned his head towards me and said,
“I love you. Mom!”
This can’t be… Kian broke the rule… what should I say…!
Kian’s cheeks, blushing like a shy peach, were so cute.
Instead of getting angry, all my rational circuits were paralyzed as soon as I heard Kian say ‘I love you, Mom!’, and my mouth was open.
I couldn’t handle this overwhelming emotion and was about to hug Kian tightly, but thanks to Sicar who put down the rosemary saying ‘what a childish play’, I could come back to my senses.
The reason I started this game was to say that we love each other under the pretext of play.
They say that if you say you love, even closed hearts will open.
First, I’ll open the word of love from Kian to Sicar, and if I change the place and continue the game, I can aim for a situation where even Sicar makes Kian say he loves him.
So it was very difficult to gloss over it like this. So I hardened my heart and said to Kian in a slightly stern voice,
“Kian. You have to keep the game rules. What did I say? You have to say you love the person on the right. Let’s pass this time, but next time you must follow the rules, okay?”
Kian did not answer immediately and just squinted his eyes. It seemed like he didn’t like it, so I held Kian’s hand tightly.
“It’s just a game, Kian.”
Convinced by the word game, Kian looked at me and nodded with a faint smile.
So the game started again, and this time I was caught. Then, Kian’s face really brightened up compared to before.
Kian smiled brightly as if he was very happy, and Sicar played with rosemary here and there as if it was not fun.
And I whispered the words that Kian would want to hear.
“Kian. I love you.”
Kian, who opened his mouth in a happy smile, cheered with his hands covering his face, blushing to the tips of his ears.
“Ha!”
I teased Kian more by holding his arm.
“Why are you like that, Kian? Are you embarrassed?”
“Haha! I, I don’t know!”
How am I supposed to handle this adorable son who doesn’t know what to do because he’s shy about saying I love you?
I couldn’t bear the laughter that reached my ears and rolled my legs and laughed.
“Is the game over now?”
Thinking that Sicar might say ‘Now stop this childish play’, I immediately stopped the joke I was playing with Kian.
“No! We will continue. This is a family game for the harmony of our three family members.”
“Sure.”
Sicar, holding the rosemary, twisted as if to rip it apart and then held it upright again.
I picked up the rosemary next to me, shared it again, and started with Sicar this time.
We looked at each other and picked off one flower at a time. I wished in my heart that Kian would be the one, but surprisingly, it was Sicar who was caught this time.
Would Sicar really tell me he loves me?
The thought of Sicar saying such a thing to me was so absurd that I figured I wouldn’t mind if he mumbled something vague.
As expected, Sicar froze as if a curse had manifested throughout his body.
Of course, a curse had not really manifested. He was simply stiff because he didn’t expect to get caught and was embarrassed.
Seeing him so stiff, it seemed he was having a really hard time saying it. Such behavior only provoked my teasing more.
Let him pay for always threatening me with his knife.
“Sicar? What are you doing? You should follow the rules, right?”
Looking embarrassed, Sicar blocked his mouth with his fist, cleared his throat a few times, and then said the following.
“Suddenly, it seems like a curse has been activated and my pronunciation isn’t working well.”
“You’re speaking very clearly and accurately, aren’t you?”
‘Does it feel like your tongue is paralyzed trying to say something you’ve never said before?’
I was secretly very satisfied. This was a first in Sicar’s life, wasn’t it?
“Sicar. Kian is watching too, are you going to break the rules?”
“Who said I’m going to break the rules? I will do it. I’m just thinking of a more sophisticated method.”
It must be killing him to say something he’s never said before.
“I’d like to see that sophisticated method soon, Sicar. We also have our limits on waiting.”
Whether it was due to my prodding or not, Sicar surprisingly pulled out his dagger in a flustered manner.
“Why are you suddenly pulling out a dagger?!”
“To carve.”
‘Carve what? And where?’
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.
