The Saturday morning designated for the trip dawned. Si-hyun sang along with a humming tune while checking her suitcase.
“Swimsuit, hat, charger, sunscreen….”
It was still late August. Though the intense summer heat in Seoul had subsided since mid-August, Jeju Island had perfect weather for swimming.
“Is it really that good?”
Taeha, who had come to pick up Si-hyun long before, asked with a smile. Instead of the usual suit, he wore a sky-blue piqué shirt with bright beige chino pants, making him look unusually young for his age.
“Of course!”
During summer vacations, the small family used to go on vacation to their beach house, but Si-hyun had never been taken along. Si-hyun always stayed at home with the housemaid ahjumma.
Although she didn’t really want to go with them, she couldn’t help but envy how dark and tan Ah-hyun would come back, holding hands with her mom and dad.
So, it was the first family trip since she was born. In fact, what made her happy wasn’t the trip itself but having a family to travel with. That family was Taeha, Huisun, and Leon, even more.
It was thrilling to think that she could actually ride a private plane like the ones in the movies.
“I made a promise with Miss Mi-joo. We’re going to take a hundred pictures on the plane!”
Taeha burst into laughter.
Si-hyun, wearing a short jumpsuit that reached her thighs and a wide-brimmed hat, walked out of the house with Taeha, dancing like she was dancing.
“Auntie? Shouldn’t we pick her up and take her with us?”
“Don’t worry. Father said he would bring her.”
The two got into the car and headed to the airport. Leon was already there waiting.
“Wow, sir!”
Seeing Leon in a sky-blue shirt, white jeans, and sunglasses, Si-hyun couldn’t close her open mouth.
How could he look so fresh at that age? No wonder netizens would argue about whether the son was better or the father.
“How is it? I wore whatever the secretaries picked.”
Facing the somewhat awkward question from Leon, Si-hyun raised her thumbs.
“Auntie will fall in love with you at first sight!”
Now that she thought about it, Huisun wasn’t visible. Si-hyun looked around.
“Where’s Auntie?”
“I sent her to the store to pick up the car, so she’ll come to pick us up soon. Have you guys had breakfast?”
Taeha answered.
“We only had a cup of coffee because we were in a hurry.”
“Then you can eat on the plane. Just endure a little longer.”
I’m really on a private plane!
Si-hyun was so excited that she felt like she was about to fly into the sky. Suppressing the urge to jump around like a child, she suddenly heard her phone ring.
It was Mi-joo.
“Hello? What’s going on?”
[Dash] Si-hyun, I think I’m going to die.Mi-joo’s voice, always lively, sounded like that of a dying person, and Si-hyun was surprised.
“Why? Where does it hurt?”
[Dash] I think it was a mistake to eat raw fish bibimbap yesterday. I’ve been vomiting all night and it’s a mess.“What should I do? Don’t you need to go to the hospital?”
In Si-hyun’s sympathetic ears, the next moment, a thunderous statement rang out.
[Dash] So, the thing is, Si-hyun, can you go to the wedding for me later?“What? The wedding?”
Come to think of it, today was Boram’s wedding. It had been decided that only one person from the team would go to deliver the congratulatory money, and Mi-joo had drawn the short straw.
Si-hyun protested in a lowered voice.
“Are you crazy? You want me to go to Boram’s wedding?”
[Dash] Then what should I do? I can’t go because I’m sick. I’ve already received all the congratulatory money. Someone has to deliver the envelope, right? You can’t pour it out at the wedding, can you?“Even if that’s the case!”
[Dash] Let’s pretend not to know between us, okay? I’m counting on you.“What are you asking for? I don’t even know where it is!”
[Dash] I’ll send you a mobile wedding invitation.“No, I can’t. I’m on a trip right now. I’m at the airport…!”
[Dash] Ugh, not again!With a desperate scream, the call was abruptly cut off.
“Miss Mi-joo? Miss Mi-joo!”
As Si-hyun was at a loss about what to do, Taeha approached and asked, “What’s wrong?”
“Why?” Si-hyun replied. “Mi-joo suddenly fell ill. So, she asked me to attend Boram’s wedding on her behalf today… What should I do?”
By asking “What should I do,” Taeha meant how to resolve this situation. There was no consideration of canceling the trip to attend the wedding.
Though she felt sorry for Mi-joo, Si-hyun wanted to ask Taeha’s secretary to deliver the envelope on her behalf during the weekend.
However, after a brief thought, Taeha decisively said, “Let’s go to the wedding.”
“What? What about the trip?”
Si-hyun jumped in surprise.
“We can go another time. Mi-joo has already collected the envelopes from people. If we can’t deliver it, it will put Assistant Director Mi-joo in a difficult position.”
“But…!”
While the two were discussing, Leon intervened this time.
“What’s going on?”
After listening to Taeha’s explanation, Leon sighed lightly.
“Well, we can’t help it. The trip will be with me and Rose.”
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.
