Yoon’s steps were exceedingly urgent as he entered the hotel restaurant. As soon as he was led to the room, he flung the door open without a knock.
Inside the room, Kim Seo Jung, dressed in refined attire, sat with poise.
“You’re late.”
“Please sort out the house problem.”
Without even sitting down, Yoon hastily began to speak.
“It depends on what you do.”
Yesterday was the day Yoon’s family moved. They packed their things early in the morning and arrived at the new house. However, when they tried to open the front door, it wouldn’t open.
They had certainly cleaned the house the day before, and there was no reason for the passcode to have been changed. So they called the landlord, but only a disconnected tone sounded.
Getting a bad feeling, they ran around and found out that there was a different landlord. In short, they had been scammed. Ho Sik and Ok Soon could only sit down right there.
The documents were so perfect that anyone could have been fooled, causing even real estate agents to shake their heads.
Moreover, they thought they had signed the contract through a real estate agency, but the scammer had tried to save the agency fee and even coaxed Ho Sik, making it impossible to receive compensation.
Therefore, Yoon’s family was now in a situation where they had to sit on the street. They stored their luggage in a truck borrowed from a hardware store and lodged the two in a nearby inn.
They reported to the police, but it was only daunting whether they could catch the scammer somewhere.
While Yoon was running around today, he received a call from Kim Seo Jung’s secretary. The secretary just told him the location and hung up the phone.
“Where is that scammer?”
“What are you talking about?”
“Why on earth are you doing this to us?”
Yoon’s body trembled with rage.
“Get married.”
“I’m… I’m going to report to the police.”
“I don’t understand what you’re saying at all. What are you accusing me of doing? To a person who’s offering to help you.”
Seo Jung shrugged it off.
“Ha…..”
What kind of money was it? It might have been a mere pittance for them, but it was money Ho Sik, who worked as an apartment guard, and Ok Soon, who cleaned buildings, had painstakingly saved up.
It was money they had scrimped and saved for almost two years, not eating, not spending, to look less shabby to their granddaughter’s boyfriend.
“Just by getting married?”
In the face of Seo Jung’s ruthlessness, going so far as to meddle in this, Yoon asked out of desperation.
Then Seo Jung thrust a photo in front of Yoon.
“You’re starting to talk sense now. As I said before, it’s Executive Director Cha Yu Hyun from Woo Sung Construction. He’ll solve the house problem right away.”
“Why are you doing this to me now? Didn’t we cut ties?”
Yoon, who had run straight to the beach city immediately after dawn 10 years ago, fainted right in front of Ho Sik and Ok Soon.
It was due to the sudden release of tension. Yoon, who was immediately admitted to the hospital, was diagnosed with malnutrition.
Ho Sik and Ok Soon were also greatly shocked when their granddaughter, whom they hadn’t seen for two years, turned up looking like she hadn’t had a decent meal.
Then, a little while later, Secretary Seo Ji Man came to the hospital. Ji Man said this on the phone that the secretary handed over:
“You left on your own. I won’t accept you even if you come back. I’m abandoning you. So, you’re a stranger now.”
Upon hearing that, Yoon was so moved that she picked up her phone, even bowed, and said,
“Thank you so much. For abandoning me.”
Yoon, reminded of what happened ten years ago, shuddered once again.
“You’re still on the family register, aren’t you?”
Seo Jung coldly retorted.
“You said back then that you’re a stranger now.”
“Why do you think you’re on the family register? Even if you were young, it’s because of your somewhat decent face. He knew you’d be useful like this.”
“What did you say?”
At Seo Jung’s snide comment, Yoon glared at her.
“Accept it gratefully. It’s an opportunity to marry the crown prince of Woo Sung Construction. Do you think you’re worthy of it?”
“If it’s such a good opportunity, then your daughter Yu Jin should go.”
At Yoon’s words, Seo Jung yelled out loud.
“Are you out of your mind! Why should our Yu Jin…?”
Then, as if afraid that Yoon might change her mind, Seo Jung trailed off her words.
Yoon found Seo Jung’s words somewhat predictable. Her words meant that she couldn’t send her own daughter to an undesirable place.
However, Yoon knew but could do nothing about it. If she refused again, this woman could commit a worse crime than housing fraud.
“Stop being noisy and meet here next Saturday at 3 p.m.”
“Then, please solve the housing problem first.”
Yoon suppressed her boiling anger and spoke up.
“It seems like you’re having a hard time, so I’m helping you.”
Seo Jung answered with a brazen face.
“Pay her, secretary.”
Then, as if there was nothing more to say, Seo Jung got up and left the place without any hesitation. As Seo Jung left, Yoon opened her phone and checked the deposited amount.
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.
