“Sigh……”
Su Yeon’s breath, which she had held back in bits, burst out hot.
She had always lived comforting herself that everything was okay.
Even though she was abandoned by her biological parents, being adopted by the Taeshin Group meant that she was incredibly lucky.
Compared to other children in her situation, who had no idea what parental love was, she had been incredibly fortunate.
But every time she thought that way, Su Yeon couldn’t hold back her tears in sadness.
She had never hoped to be abandoned or adopted.
Su Yeon had merely endured each day, breathing with the guilt of being born, and it had led her to this point.
She was not at all happy with a life where she could do nothing as she wished.
Every moment was so painful and miserable that she longed for death.
Deciding to die now, life for Su Yeon was nothing but hell itself, to the point where nothing could hold her back.
“…Yeah, I’ve endured this much. I’ve done enough.”
Su Yeon murmured softly.
The smile at the corner of her mouth was painfully pitiful.
Her precarious steps approached the railing of the bridge one step at a time.
Her weak hands gripped the railing, and both her legs climbed over it.
Su Yeon slowly closed her eyes.
The warm wind, inconsistent with the season, tousled her hair and passed by.
The wind that blew at the moment she decided to die was cruelly filled with warmth.
Su Yeon thought.
She had to end her life before being caught by Chairman Choi again, but for a moment.
At the moment of facing death, she wondered if she could enjoy this little respite.
Then her last moments might be a little less painful and sad.
How long did she stand like that?
A warm smile, like the wind, found a place at the corners of Su Yeon’s mouth.
All the moments in her life when she dreamed of death, she had such thoughts.
What would she think when she truly decides to die?
She thought there would be a lot that would come to mind.
Because it’s usually like that in dramas or movies.
But there was not much that came to mind.
As if the only happiness to recall was just that.
It was somewhat empty, but she didn’t care.
Su Yeon put strength into her hands gripping the railing and lifted one foot.
But at that very moment, an unfamiliar voice seeped in from behind Su Yeon.
“It’s dangerous to stand there like that.”
Su Yeon was startled and quickly turned to look behind her.
An unfamiliar old woman was standing not too far away.
Su Yeon, momentarily taken aback, fumbled around, unable to choose words.
Only complicated thoughts about the share that the Taeshin Group, her birth family, and the TK Group, her marital family, would have to bear if this incident was reported and made public came to mind.
Not knowing Su Yeon’s speed, the old woman continued to speak.
“Such a beautiful young lady, your face looks like it’s dying.”
“……”
“You seem to be having some trouble, right?”
Sympathy filled the voice that reached Su Yeon’s ears.
It seemed like an effort to somehow delay time and save a life, sensing the extreme choice.
At that moment, Su Yeon snapped back to reality.
Once she jumps and dies here, the world will indeed go into an uproar.
Even as an adopted child, being the eldest daughter of the Taeshin Group and the youngest daughterinlaw of the TK Group was a position too good for issues.
But that had to happen after her death.
She never hoped for such turmoil while she was alive and breathing.
So she had to avoid this situation without raising suspicion from the old woman.
“It’s not like that. I just… like the strong wind.”
Su Yeon replied with the most nonchalant face possible.
But the old woman didn’t buy it.
The old woman chuckled and retorted.
“If you like the strong wind, you should go to the Han River Park, not stand on the bridge railing. It’s dangerous.”
Caught off guard by the unexpected comment, Su Yeon’s eyes wavered.
Realizing belatedly that her actions were suspicious to anyone, she quickly climbed down from the railing.
Her flustered lips anxiously licked.
Having shown such a state just before, it was clear that whatever she said would be nothing more than an excuse.
Still, she had to say something.
“Just now, that was… just…”
“There’s no need to worry if it’s just the ramblings of an old woman who has no place to mumble in her old age.”
The old woman cut off Su Yeon’s words with a fairly firm voice.
Su Yeon’s pupils vibrated finely.
It felt as if her inner thoughts had been completely exposed.
The old woman’s pupils were not normal.
They were filled with conviction.
There was no trace of wavering, and it even seemed relaxed as if she had already seen everything inside her.
I’ll comfort the days when your heart had to turn into ashes because it was so darkly burnt.
It seemed as if she was saying just that.
She was momentarily shaken, but she held on firmly.
The old woman’s gaze may not be normal, but it was impossible to know if it was really such a feeling.
It’s not that people can see through the insides.
Isn’t the hypothesis itself absurd?
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.
