Could it be that he wants a night with her? Was that what Director Yoon meant by offering her body?
Director Yoon smirked, as if he already knew Yuna’s thoughts.
“Hahaha. Look here, miss. You’re not my type. I prefer a more voluptuous figure.”
Yuna bit her lower lip at Director Yoon’s explicit words.
Feeling as if she were being ridiculed, Yuna’s pride was hurt.
However, he seemed indifferent to her feelings.
Lowering his voice while tapping his fingernails, he said,
“Your father’s recent movements seem suspicious.”
“Why are you telling me that?”
“Does a hunting dog eat its owner after the rabbit hunt is over? Haha. It leaves a bitter aftertaste. Considering the time I’ve worked for your father.”
“…….”
“Can’t a hunting dog bite its owner?”
Director Yoon’s eyes glared dangerously. A venomous gaze.
Yuna had almost never seen such a gaze.
With a desperate determination not to fall behind, she barely opened her mouth.
“So, what do you want?”
“Well, I’m still considering. What to choose. Money? Honor? What can you offer? Think carefully.”
“If it’s money, I don’t have any. Where would I have money? As a mere office worker, I can’t give honor either. Director Yoon chose the wrong person to threaten. If you wanted something like that, you should have dealt with my father. I thought the Director would have a couple of weaknesses of my father. Threatening me won’t get you anything.”
“Really? If your father is such a careless person, I wouldn’t be here dealing with you, like a naive child. Your scandal? I could expose that. But you’re overestimating yourself.”
Director Yoon clenched his fist and said in a menacing tone. Yuna’s pride was being crushed.
“Scandals like yours, calling you a troublemaker, a useless, destitute daughter, would be enough. If you were a person who could collapse the genuine congressman with just one thing, you wouldn’t be a presidential candidate. I want a stronger blow.”
“What is it?”
At Yuna’s question, Director Yoon’s face, which had a bitter smile, turned ominously scary.
His voice crawled into Yuna’s ears as if it were lying on the floor.
“A USB with a video. That’s what I need.”
“What kind of video is it?”
“Drugs, sponsorship. Just keep it brief. It’s probably in your father’s study safe.”
Yuna swallowed hard. Unbelievable stories were coming out. She doubted if the stories about her father were true. But if Director Yoon was telling them, it was hard not to believe.
“Bring it within a month. Otherwise, I’ll tear everything valuable from your body and sell it. Even without a kidney, you can live well, right?”
Cold sweat dripped from Yuna. How did things get tangled up like this?
Drdrdrdr.
Seoha’s phone was ringing loudly.
There was something uneasy about Gyuwon’s call.
Seoha calmed her trembling heart and answered the phone.
“Yes. This is Seoha.”
Seoha! Taekyung is moving his fingers. Hurry, come up!
Seoha, without even realizing it, had large teardrops fall.
He had come back after the long wait.
At the crossroads of life and death, he returned to me.
Seoha rushed into the hospital room without thinking. Hyojae followed her.
Today, even the elevator stopping on each floor was irritating Seoha’s heart.
Seeing Seoha anxiously biting her nails, Hyojae, who was next to her, held her hand.
“Calm down.”
“Yeah….”
Seoha nodded her head with a face that seemed like she might burst into tears at any moment.
When the elevator arrived at the 14th floor where Taekyung’s hospital room was, Seoha started running with all her strength as soon as the door opened.
Breathing heavily, it felt like her heart was about to burst. She opened the door to the patient’s room and rushed in.
The medical staff had already arrived in the room.
Carefully, unlike when she rushed in, Seoha approached Taekyung’s bed.
“Oppa! Oppa! Can you hear me?”
Taekyung’s eyelids trembled. As if responding to Seoha. Seoha grabbed his hand even more desperately and called him.
“Oppa. Taekyung Oppa! Open your eyes! Wake up, please!”
In response to Seoha’s desperate plea, Taekyung’s fingers twitched a little more, and his eyelids opened little by little.
When Taekyung opened his eyes, Seoha shivered while holding his hand. It seemed as if she vowed not to let go again.
“Mr. Han Taekyung? Are you conscious? Do you know where you are? Would you recognize the person next to you?”
“Hos…pital? Seoha? Where is Minjoon?”
“Oppa!”
Taekyung slowly nodded.
The doctor asked Taekyung several questions and checked his reactions.
For Seoha, the short time the doctor spent examining him felt longer than ever.
“First, there doesn’t seem to be any major issues. We need to conduct more detailed tests, but since he has regained consciousness, you can relax now. However, please ensure the patient can rest sufficiently.”
The doctor said to Seoha with a pleased smile. Seoha expressed continuous gratitude and bowed.
Hyojae and Gyuwon also watched, shedding tears.
“Thank goodness. Really fortunate.”
“Seoha, are you okay? What about Minjoon?”
Due to a long period of sleep, Taekyung’s voice lacked strength and sounded hoarse. Still, even that voice sounded pleasant to Seoha.
“Minjoon and I are okay. Minjoon went to kindergarten. Oppa, thank you for waking up. Thank you so much.”
“I wanted to see you. I wanted to see you and Minjoon even in my dreams.”
Taekyung faintly smiled. Seoha hugged Taekyung as he did.
Amidst all the medicinal scents, Taekyung’s scent wafting in was incredibly sweet. Seoha embraced Taekyung, crying, while he comforted her.
“It’s okay now. Don’t cry. If you cry, it hurts me.”
“Do you know how worried I was?”
“I’m sorry.”
“Why did you act so recklessly! What if you got hurt even more!”
“I’ll do better not to worry you.”
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.
