So Myung, seemingly unable to hold back her anger, raised her head and spoke.
“You’re just a piece of human trash.”
“Hey!”
At So Myung’s words, Ji Sung’s eyes filled with anger.
“I lived with someone like you for 10 years, like a fool. Now, I’m finally getting away from you, why would I want to have a drink with you? Get lost.”
So Myung felt the anger that she had been suppressing rise to the tips of her hair.
As she vented, Ji Sung looked at her silently, with a regretful look in his eyes.
“I’m sorry.”
“That kind of talk won’t work with me. You’re just a bad guy who cheated on his wife. You’re not worth being associated with… let’s not see each other again. That’s my wish. Do you know why I’m not suing?”
“Suing?”
“I despise the idea of being tied to you and that woman for 6 months to a year it takes to sue. It makes my skin crawl.”
“So Myung… So, I, in my own way…”
“So you think you can compensate for what you did with that petty property division?”
“Why have you become so bitter?”
“It’s you who’s bitter. Let’s never see each other again.”
Listening to all the vitriol coming from So Myung’s mouth, Ji Sung’s heart ached. He even felt guilt for turning her into such a state.
So Myung had vowed not to cry in front of Ji Sung, but unknowingly, tears began to roll down her cheeks.
She thought it was pathetic to show him this kind of appearance.
‘Why am I crying? On such a good day…’
Swiftly, So Myung wiped away her tears with her hand. She did not want to show any signs of weakness in front of him.
With Ji Sung watching her, she turned her back to him and walked away with dignity.
After getting into the car parked in the parking lot, she tried to start the engine and drive, but the suppressed emotions exploded, and a whimper involuntarily seeped from her mouth.
“Sob, sob, sob. Ah, sob, sob, sob.”
For a long time, unable to drive, So Myung cried in the car.
Even after So Myung left, Ji Sung couldn’t easily leave his spot.
The image of her looking at him with resentful eyes kept flickering in front of him.
‘So Myung, is it really over between us?’
Do Ha finished his work and arrived at the underground parking lot of his house.
As he was walking towards the elevator, a familiar face caught his eye.
It was So Myung.
She seemed to be returning from going out, wearing a dress and high heels, and her hairstyle also looked different from before.
Caught off guard by her different appearance, Do Ha unknowingly stared at her. She hadn’t noticed him yet and was trudging along with slumped shoulders.
He had a feeling that something bad had happened by the look on her face.
Worried, Do Ha was looking at her when he made eye contact with So Myung, who had slightly lifted her head.
So Myung looked surprised when she saw Do Ha, her eyes widening. Then, as if awkward, she gave a slight smile and greeted him with her eyes.
Do Ha also smiled back at her and greeted her.
“Hello.”
“Yes. Hello. You seem to be coming off from work.”
“Yes. It seems you’ve been out. Your outfit.”
“Ah. Yes. I’ve just submitted my divorce papers today.”
Surprised by her words, Do Ha’s eyes widened.
‘Divorce!’
She was looking at him with determined eyes, as if she had made a decision.
“I’ve been really sorry and grateful all this while.”
“Huh?”
“When the one month period of reflection passes and all the paperwork is perfectly arranged, I’m considering getting a smaller house. The house is too large for living alone. I’m also not sure when we might meet again, so I wanted to say my thanks in advance. I was really grateful all this while.”
Do Ha was looking at her while he spoke, without taking his eyes off So Myung.
“Sober, are you?”
“Huh?”
“Let’s have a drink.”
“A drink?”
“Yes. We agreed to be friends, didn’t we?”
“…Did we?”
“Go up and change into something comfortable.”
For a moment, So Myung wore a slightly flustered expression, then gave a small smile as she looked at him.
“Yes, right. Well.”
So Myung and he took the same elevator up to their homes.
He had stolen a glance at So Myung and her expression looked incredibly sad. He felt like he understood her feelings.
While she spoke as if everything was normal when she looked at him, he wondered how much her heart must be aching.
Seeing her sad expression, he couldn’t understand why his heart ached so much. He thought that maybe it was because he saw his own reflection in her, which made it even more pitiful and painful.
He couldn’t comprehend how her husband could have done such a thing to such a beautiful woman.
Soon, the elevator stopped and as So Myung stepped out, she spoke to him.
“Would you like to see me in about 10 minutes?”
“Yes, let’s do that.”
As Do Ha responded with a slight smile, she looked at him and spoke.
“Director, your impression looks much better when you smile.”
“What?”
Caught off guard by So Myung’s sudden compliment, Do Ha’s eyes widened in surprise. With a smile, she spoke.
“I’ll go in now.”
“Okay.”
So Myung keyed in the door password and entered her house.
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.
