Yeon Hee carefully laid the weary, long-flight-traveled Hyun Woo on the bed.
She stroked his forehead, and the usually cheerful child, now sound asleep, responded with a gentle smile even in his slumber.
His long, damp eyelashes bore the sad traces of silent tantrums, a testament to his reluctance to part from his mother again. Deep like his mother despite his young age, Yeon Hee gazed at her grandson with a tender look.
Your mom will come to get you soon, Hyun Woo. I think your dad might come too. She’ll do whatever it takes to live with you. So let’s wait a bit, Hyun Woo…
“Heavens, what a situation…”
After a heavy sigh, Yeon Hee covered Hyun Woo with a warm blanket, asked Jessica to stay by the child’s side, and then stepped out of the room.
“Is Hyun Woo alright?”
“Yes, he’s managing.”
When Yeon Hee entered the couple’s bedroom, Professor Uhm placed a cup of herbal tea on the table and seated his weary wife.
“So Yeon must have had her reasons. I trust my daughter no matter what others say.”
“Who’s saying what? So Yeon has been struggling on her own for so long, that’s why I’m so heartbroken.”
“So, who is Hyun Woo’s father?”
“He seems to be an actor she works with. But my heart was pounding so hard, I didn’t ask any more.”
“Hmm… We’ll find out in due time. Things aren’t looking too bad, considering Hyun Woo’s situation.”
“That’s why I told her to bring Hyun Woo’s father. He’s probably been living peacefully until now, I want to hear what he has to say in front of his child.”
“You did well.”
Eun Hyuk and Yeon Hee shook off their worries with deep sighs and warm smiles.
Until late into the night.
So Yeon had suddenly asked for a few days off and left for Jeju Island.
There were many reasons to dissuade her, but she was let go. She promised to explain everything upon her return, and her expression was so earnest it felt pitiful.
But understanding So Yeon, who hadn’t been in contact for three days, was hard. Jun regretted not being more direct about marriage instead of vaguely suggesting living together. He worried if he’d only suggested ‘cohabitation’, and if that had offended her.
He tried to dispel these mixed thoughts with intense exercise and a long shower.
Late in the evening, Seo Jun, just out of the bathroom, picked up a bottle of sparkling water and lounged in the armchair by the window in his master room.
Normally, he might have enjoyed a cold beer, but today, feeling he might see So Yeon, he refrained from alcohol. He was ready to rush to her side as soon as she contacted him.
Seo Jun habitually flipped through an old classic book.
A 19th-century royal family tale, the novel’s unique psychological portrayal and setting always drew him back, despite multiple readings.
The provided Korean text has 23 lines. Here is the English translation, maintaining the exact same number of lines as the original:
The queen, abandoned by the royal family for giving birth to a black prince.
And a doctor who time-slips from the future to the past, tenaciously unraveling the unjust story of the dethroned queen and the black prince, proving the legitimacy of his royal succession, always gave Seo Jun a thrilling shock each time he read it.
The black baby born to two white parents was a highly improbable genetic anomaly. Such a setting in the 1800s was curious, but possible, given the novelist was a genetic biologist.
Seo Jun glanced out the window.
Looking intently at the half-cloud-covered moon, he felt drawn to look at the photo of Hyun Woo on his phone.
He had always felt the child looked familiar, but why?
Could it be the child of someone he knew?
Seo Jun methodically reviewed everyone close to him. Definitely not Gu Won Hu. And even less likely were Chief Bong or Park Sung Ho. Then, Jo In Ha? No, not him either. If it had been him, he wouldn’t have backed off so easily from Eom So Yeon, using the child as leverage.
Then who could it be…
Seo Jun lined up everyone he knew, trying to find who Hyun Woo resembled the most. But no one seemed to fit.
Suddenly, a moment flashed in his mind.
That time in the jacuzzi when Eom So Yeon gestured towards him. His mind went blank, and he felt a chill down his spine.
Especially since she said she’d explain everything after coming back from her trip.
“Could it be… me?”
Though still leaning towards disbelief, Seo Jun’s hand trembled as he hurriedly called Chief Bong.
Yes, Director.
“Do you know the birth date of Eom So Yeon’s son?”
Mid-September, according to Ye Do Soon….
Seo Jun ended the call before hearing the rest.
If he met Eom So Yeon in late December, and the baby was born the following September… If she hadn’t been with another man before him, the likelihood of him being the father…
Realizing the high probability that he was the father, Seo Jun looked intensely at Hyun Woo’s photo. His brow furrowed, and his deep eyes narrowed then widened repeatedly.
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.
