When You Forget Me (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 23
Was she drunk? As he turned his body, spotting the faint light, Gi Ju thought so. It felt even more that way because it came from the greenhouse on the path toward the separate annex where the lodging was.
The foot that had been ignoring it and walking suddenly veered off the path right after that.
The closer he got, the more clearly the brightly lit greenhouse came into view. Gi Ju stepped inside the open entrance without hesitation. Something hard immediately crunched under his foot. When he lifted it, it was a cable tie.
Frowning slightly and craning his neck, the completely ruined greenhouse came fully into sight.
The glass walls of the greenhouse were covered in dust, the spots where flowerpots should have been were empty, and the watering can lay crumpled as if someone had stepped on it lay upside-down on the floor. It was the trace of a hasty cleanup.
In the middle of it all stood Eun Chae. Her small hands were clenched tightly, and she didn’t move an inch. Gi Ju crossed the wreckage-like greenhouse and brushed the back of his neck.
He seemed to recall hearing whispers that they were going to turn the greenhouse site into a pond. Under the pretext that the old greenhouse was an eyesore.
Gi Ju mentally retraced the whole sequence of events as he passed by her standing there.
Eun Chae lifted her bloodshot eyes and looked at him. Watching his lazy gait made her throat feel like it was blocked solid.
Soon Gi Ju bent his knees and crouched in front of a broken flowerpot. He stared for a moment at the sand covering the area around it, then swept his hand through it.
“Don’t be too heartbroken.”
“…….”
“It’s not like it’s the first or second time something’s been taken from you.”
Eun Chae barely managed to steady her uneven breathing.
Did her heart stop for a second at those words? It felt like it might have.

The Male lead Always Seduces Her with His Beauty (Matriarchy)
Xin Jiao Zhou is the leader of the world’s premier sect. She has just experienced betrayal from all sides, was poisoned in an assassination attempt, and faced death squad attacks while the poison was taking effect. After finally clearing out the scum from her sect, she was drugged again while trying to detoxify.
After waking up from a night of unconsciousness, she gained a “beautiful and kind-hearted” husband.
Xin Jiao Zhou: “???”
He fell ill.
She came to see him, bringing breakfast.
As she put down the breakfast and was about to leave, his hand slipped while holding the spoon. “Clank!”
She turned around upon hearing the noise.
He looked up at her, his eyebrows drooping: “My hand… has no strength.”
“Shall I… feed you?” she asked tentatively.
He opened his mouth cheerfully: “Ah—”
Thinking she was drowning, he jumped in without hesitation to save her, but nearly drowned himself. In the end, it was she who swam over to rescue him, giving him air underwater.
After emerging from the water, his ear tips turned red. He lightly brushed his cheek, tucking his sideburns behind his ear, revealing delicate, pink-tinged ear tips. He lowered his gaze, too embarrassed to look at her.
Xin Jiao Zhou: He’s truly beautiful, kind-hearted, and adorable.
A certain someone when disciplining subordinates behind the scenes: “If they don’t obey, just kill them.”
What’s that? She might already have someone she cares about in her heart? A certain someone: Find out who it is, kill them, and then there won’t be anyone.
What? She met a man by the riverside? What? That man even hurt her? A certain someone: Whichever hand hurt her, chop off his entire arm.
