“Don’t come any closer.”
Yoon retreated further as Kang Hyun approached.
“Is this balcony yours?”
“Then I’ll go in.”
“Do as you wish.”
However, it didn’t seem like Kang Hyun would make way. Moreover, he spread his arms wide as if ready to chase a rabbit.
Kang Hyun’s face was as cold as ever, but there was a subtle smile.
Looking at his face, Yoon hesitated to approach him, even though she was sure he was teasing her. It felt as if a different atmosphere was flowing between the two, possibly because of the place.
After all, they were in a honeymoon suite for newlyweds, and it was night, and they were alone. Yoon kept backing away.
On the other hand, Kang Hyun felt slightly upset as Yoon continuously avoided him. Moreover, her eyes were filled with fear, as if she were seeing a molester.
“Are you scared of me?”
Kang Hyun was dumbfounded. Other women were desperate to cling to him, but Yoon was busy running away. It was a strange situation that he had never experienced before.
Oddly enough, as Yoon kept avoiding him, he wanted to cling to her more.
“That’s not it…”
“Come here.”
Kang Hyun extended his hand.
“Why are you doing this?”
As Yoon spread her hands to block him, Kang Hyun barked in frustration.
“Geez, anyone who sees us might think I’m really trying to eat you. I was just teasing you because you were being so annoying. Fine, I get it. I get it. I’m going in. Are you happy now?”
Kang Hyun grumbled and turned away. Only then did Yoon let out a sigh of relief.
But Kang Hyun, who was heading inside, suddenly turned around and strode towards her with a grin.
“Eek!”
Yoon was startled by the wind, lost her balance, and staggered. Kang Hyun, seeing this, quickly approached to support her by grabbing her arm. However, Yoon fell backwards and plunged into the water.
“Agh!”
The water was not deep, but as she fell backwards, Yoon couldn’t control her balance and floundered in the water, screaming in panic.
Seeing Yoon scream, Kang Hyun quickly threw off his robe and jumped into the water.
As Kang Hyun went to floundering Yoon and lifted her in his arms, Yoon clung onto his neck tightly.
“Huff, huff!”
Whether she had swallowed some water, Yoon was panting heavily. Kang Hyun patted her back gently.
“Can’t you swim?”
“Cough… No.”
Yoon coughed. Now, she wrapped her legs around his waist.
Afraid he might let her go, she clung onto his neck even tighter and buried her face in his broad shoulder.
His shoulders, which seemed terrifying a while ago, now felt like a lifeline.
In reality, the water only reached her chest, but to the frantic Yoon, it felt like a deep pool where her feet couldn’t touch the bottom.
On the other hand, Kang Hyun found it amusing yet not unpleasant that Yoon, who had been avoiding him all this time, was now clinging to him and had no intention of letting go.
It seemed as though she thought she would die if she let him go. Seeing Yoon clinging to him more and more even stirred feelings of pity in him. So, he held her even tighter.
“Do you have a fear of water?”
As Yoon was shivering, Kang Hyun asked out of concern.
“No.”
However, Yoon felt as though she might develop a fear of water from now on. She felt as if she was going to die when the water continuously rushed into her mouth and nose while she floundered.
Having nothing to depend on and being unable to grab onto anything was a terrifying experience.
“I think I’m feeling a bit better now.”
Yoon’s coughing subsided, perhaps because she had calmed down.
“I want to get out now.”
She found her current situation, being held in his arms, rather embarrassing when she regained her composure. However, she couldn’t estimate the depth and thus, she felt awkward, unable to lower her legs or let go of her arms.
“Now that you’re in the water, how about swimming? I can teach you.”
Kang Hyun whispered in her ear, chuckling.
“No, I just want to get out.”
Feeling ticklish where his breath touched, Yoon blocked her ear with her shoulder and spoke. Moreover, she felt uncomfortable as her body was in too close contact with his.
Upon discreetly checking, as expected, her thin white tshirt had clung to her body due to being wet, exposing her underwear.
‘What do I do.’
Yoon’s ears turned hot.
Kang Hyun, who had started it all as a joke, also found the situation awkward. She seemed slim, but surprisingly, she had some volume.
Feeling her moist hair due to being soaked in water, and her soft skin, he felt his mind growing dizzy.
“Uh! Yeah, let’s get out.”
As if making a pledge to himself, Kang Hyun spoke and lifted her body to take her out of the water. As soon as Yoon got out, her legs seemed to give out and she collapsed.
“Are you okay?”
Kang Hyun, who had followed her out, asked as he helped her up.
“……I’m okay.”
Yoon, drained of energy, managed to spit out the words. Then, she quickly turned her gaze away upon seeing Kang Hyun in his wet underwear.
She was relieved to find out he was at least wearing underwear underneath the robe, as she thought he hadn’t been wearing anything.
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.
