Having given the first-floor guest room to Choi Hyeon and Seo Garam, Yeonu went upstairs. It was already one in the morning. Although it was late, for some reason, she felt reluctant to sleep and sat on the living room sofa. Seol Ji-oh, who had changed into pajamas, came out to the living room.
“Can’t sleep?”
“Just feeling a bit reluctant to sleep.”
Seol Ji-oh sat next to her and reached out, pulling her shoulder toward him.
“It was nice to see a friend after a long time, wasn’t it?”
“Yeah, it was. I felt really happy to see you again.”
Seol Ji-oh gently kissed Yeonu on the forehead. The warmth that touched her and gently fell away was sweet.
“We have a month left of our vacation. Let’s enjoy it diligently. I’m going to have a good time with you.”
Yeonu laughed at his words. They were already having an incredibly good time.
“This is the first time in my life that I’ve been so leisurely. I was always busy with filming, part-time jobs, and other things.”
“You’ve worked hard, Yeonu. Let’s take this opportunity to rest together. I really enjoy spending time with you.”
“Yeah, me too.”
Yeonu quietly accepted his hand, which was gently brushing her hair. Then, she cautiously asked something she had been curious about since earlier.
“Ji-oh, do you keep in touch with your mother?”
His expression changed slightly at her question. Yeonu became unexpectedly flustered as the smile disappeared from his face.
“Talking about my mother… do you really want to?”
Seol Ji-oh looked into the air, blinked, and then opened his mouth after a moment of silence.
“It’s been quite a while since we contacted each other. It just happened naturally when my mother went to the United States.”
Recalling the past, even when Seol Ji-oh lived next door, she rarely saw his mother. Whenever she asked him, he would always say that his mother was overseas for work or at the company.
Thinking about it now, it didn’t seem like a typical family situation. Raising a child alone without a father, and yet his mother was always absent from home.
Moreover, the house was too big and lonely for a child to stay alone. It was clear why Seol Ji-oh had come to her house every day at that time.
Yeonu was grateful that Seol Ji-oh had grown up well even in such a family environment. When she suddenly left in the second year of middle school, there was probably nowhere for him to go.
Oh, and there was an accident as well.
“Ji-oh, did you go through the accident alone?”
“Yeah, I did.”
Yeonu felt a bit angry.
Even if he was busy, he was her son. Was he just going to leave him alone after a serious accident?
“No, isn’t that too much? You were seriously injured to the point of losing your memory, and he just left you like that!”
“…”
Even as she vented her frustration, Seol Ji-oh remained silent, clenching his lips.
Frustrated but unable to continue with her anger, Yeonu stopped talking and examined his face.
Is he really okay?
Or has he become so accustomed to wounds that he considers this nothing?
“Are you… okay?”
“Wuna.”
Instead of answering, Seol Ji-oh suddenly called her name. He looked into the air, and his lips trembled for a moment.
Seol Ji-oh, seemingly hesitant to speak, finally uttered after a moment as if finding it difficult.
“If what you know about me… is not everything.”
“…What?”
“Are you going to leave me?”
He turned his head to look at himself. His pitch-black pupils were trembling ever so slightly.
Yeonu momentarily lost words at what to say.
Is it that what I know is not everything?
Are you going to leave? What kind of talk is that?
Yeonu stared at him with a bewildered expression, but he remained silent.
Is there something… he’s hiding from me?
A newfound fear was surfacing on his face as their eyes met.
Gohyeon-a was enjoying a more abundant day than ever these days.
Although she unilaterally rejected the drama “The Last Wish,” which she decided to appear in to take over Yeonu’s role, there was no aftermath at all. Instead, numerous advertisements kept coming in. Gohyeon-a thought to herself how powerful this could be.
In a state of resting from work on her projects, she occasionally did ad shoots, making her daily life leisurely. Of course, due to the special treatment from MH Group Chairman Lee Jun-young, she was frequently invited to go out, but that wasn’t burdensome.
Chairman Lee Jun-young was a divorced man in his forties with a middle school son. Considering his forties, he was handsome, well-mannered, and meeting him wasn’t uncomfortable at all.
Of course, it wasn’t a relationship based on love, but what’s so important about love?
Gohyeon-a was satisfied with her current life, except for one thing.
“Oppa, what’s really going on with you lately?”
“Why would you ask?”
Gohyeon-a swept her hair nervously. Seungjae’s attitude had suddenly changed too much.
Seungjae, who always acted as if he would do anything for her, suddenly became cold not only in his gaze but also in his actions.
He only helped as much as needed, and all conversations became strictly business-like.
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.
