Then Noah’s voice interrupted her thoughts.
“Is that okay?”
“Huh? Oh, yes, that’s fine.”
Amy nodded too quickly, which seemed to make Noah suspicious.
“Really?”
“Yes, there’s a solid basis and precedent.”
She believed even Joseph, a legal expert, would agree.
“Opposing it would be more trouble than it’s worth. There’s no guarantee of success.”
After Amy spoke decisively, Noah’s face finally relaxed.
“If Amy says so.”
“Heh, so let’s leave early tomorrow. We’ll leave at dawn, right?”
Dwain blinked in confusion, and Jack clicked his tongue in annoyance.
“The same as always… Leave before dawn, when it’s still dark. Listen more carefully, will you?”
“Because you clean your ears only once a year.”
Bradley joined in, and soon Dwain lunged at him in anger. Vernon, ignoring the scuffle, spoke to Amy.
“Understood. I’ll speak with the butler and make the necessary arrangements.”
“Thank you.”
Joseph also quickly added.
“I’ll prepare a new contract.”
After Vernon and Joseph left the room, Jack followed them, frowning at the quarreling pair. Amy, sitting back in her chair, stretched out.
“Having sorted out the servants and only left Vernon’s group and the mercenaries… this is going okay.”
She had expected some discomfort but was pleasantly surprised. Vernon and Jack, who took initiative in their work, made things easier. Amy savored a rare moment of relaxation as she lifted her teacup.
“…….”
As Dwain and Bradley awkwardly got up from the floor, Amy stopped them.
“Wait.”
“Yes?”
Amy put down her teacup and addressed them.
“Which of you is better at infiltration?”
“…….”
The question ignited their competitive spirit.
“Obviously, it’s me.”
Before Bradley could finish, Dwain scoffed.
“Oh, so good that you got kicked by a horse while hiding in the stable~.”
“That was because I didn’t know the horse was giving birth… And you got caught by little Mark and pelted with stones.”
As they resumed their bickering, Amy looked exasperated.
“It’s clear neither of you is suited for infiltration.”
She then turned away.
“The task will have to be handled by the captain of the mercenaries.”
“Understood.”
“No, I can really do well…”
Dwain protested too late, hastily shutting his mouth as Amy glared at him.
‘I thought they would be useful, but they’re just flounders.’
Clicking her tongue silently, Amy turned to whisper with the captain of the mercenaries.
“…It’s all because of you.”
Bradley whispered to Dwain, who pouted in response.
“Isn’t the stewardess really scary? She looks so pretty, but inside, she’s like a morning star.”
As they looked on regretfully, Noah quietly approached them.
“That technique just now, it’s from the South, isn’t it?”
Dwain was startled by Noah’s sudden engagement.
“Oh, Your Highness, the Second Prince…”
Bradley, quicker on the uptake, nodded.
“Yes, that’s right. It’s a martial art from the Southern foreign legions. We learned it when we lived near the South.”
“…”
Noah glanced briefly at Amy, who was absorbed in her conversation, then narrowed his eyes at Dwain. Confused by Noah’s reaction, Dwain looked puzzled.
“Morning star…”
“Eh? What did you just say?”
Dwain, not quite catching Noah’s muttered words, perked up his ears. Noah shook his head as if to dismiss it and whispered softly.
“I’d like to learn that too.”
“Really?”
Bradley’s eyes widened as he scrutinized Noah from head to toe. Noah’s slender frame didn’t seem to have a single muscle. Dwain’s mouth fell open in shock before he eagerly raised his hand.
“I’ll teach you!”
Then he turned to whisper excitedly to Bradley.
“I’ve always wanted to take down a royal.”
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.
