He scolded her for being naive, but she couldn’t help but keep laughing.
The scene of the three chatting, completely unaware, caught the attention of the woman inside the coffee truck.
Noticing her gaze, Sam-young shot another look at both of them, then quickly approached her, chatting with a nervous laugh.
“Boss. Are you by any chance from Le Cordon Bleu Pink? The cookies are fabulous!”
“Oh, thank you. Would you like another one?”
“At this rate, I might end up eating everything here, but I’d be grateful if you give me another one. Haha.”
Reaching out both hands, when he did, she grabbed one more cookie and handed it to Sam-young’s left and right hands side by side.
“Oh my! Two of them!”
Holding one cookie in each hand, smiling, the woman asked her cautiously.
“Um, by the way…”
“What?”
Bowing her upper body, she quietly asked while glancing at San.
“Is he a rookie actor?”
“Who?”
“The man next to actor Seo Kang over there.”
“…Ah.”
“He’s incredibly handsome. It’s my first time seeing him.”
…So, she kept glancing over there?
Sam-young, smiling mockingly, replied to her repeatedly experienced question.
“Ah, he’s not an actor. He’s our company’s security chief.”
“Really?”
“Yes. Handsome enough to rival an actor, right?”
“Oh my, I naturally thought he was an actor.”
“So, wherever I go, it’s tiring. I don’t know if I’m Kang’s manager or the security chief’s manager. Hahaha!”
“Is that so…”
“Oh, by the way, about these cookies. Are there other flavors?”
Sam-young tried hard to divert her attention by combing through the menu with enthusiasm.
While Kang, as if observing them from a distance, San quietly asked, showing no interest in that side.
“What were you talking about earlier?”
“Huh?”
“With Yang Shin-hwi. It seemed quite serious.”
“Ah, about that…”
She blurred the end of her sentence, casually brushing it off as nothing important.
But, as if he had been listening to the conversation next to him, San asked specifically, as if poking at her.
“Why? Upset that he didn’t come to see you?”
“Huh?”
“Didn’t he ask if you waited for him?”
“…Did you hear the conversation from there?”
Obviously, right?
Instead of answering, he grinned and asked again.
“So, what did you say?”
After a moment of hesitation, Kang spoke up belatedly.
“What did I say… I naturally said I waited for him.”
“…Waited for him?”
Looking at San, whose eyes were directly twisted, she laughed without answering.
“Could you at least listen to Korean till the end?”
Gently pressing her slightly narrowed forehead with his index finger, Kang, sipping coffee, said.
“I meant I waited for Moon Sung-jun, not Yang Shin-hwi.”
“…”
“Understand what I mean? I missed the male lead.”
“Did he understand it that way?”
“He understood it right away. He seemed disappointed.”
Watching Kang with a troubled expression, he asked.
“Is it bothering you?”
“I guess I feel a bit sorry.”
Having said that much, she looked at San and spoke in a slightly lower voice.
“But I think it’s inevitable. I don’t want to cause you any worry, and to do that, I have to take care of my safety first.”
“…”
“You are the most important to me.”
Of course, putting aside other issues, it didn’t mean she would ignore Shin-hwi forever.
But for him to rise on his own strength, he shouldn’t use his own pain as someone else’s weakness and shake it.
That was what Kang believed; she knew she could offer help at any time, but ultimately, he had to overcome it himself.
However, San seemed not to have heard anything else.
“I am the most important to you.”
That one sentence was all that stuck.
And to him, it sounded like an unequivocal declaration that he would support whatever choice she made.
When she first talked about the existence of the Celestial being, she showed a reaction that he had never expected.
“So, is the Celestial an ally or an enemy?”
“To you, they’re allies. They are beings who protect you from forces trying to kill you.”
“I’m asking if they consider you an ally or an enemy.”
“…?”
“Whether it’s a Celestial or a Mongma, they haven’t acknowledged your existence in the same way. I don’t believe they are inherently good.”
Living as the first and only existence, he thought it was a loneliness he had to carry.
Therefore, he never dared to ask someone to understand the resentment he held.
However, Kang was the first person to understand and respect those feelings.
And more than anything else, he was the one who considered himself the most important.
“So, I…”
… How could I not love him?
Unable to complete his sentence, Kang asked again.
“What did you say?”
Instead of answering, San slowly scanned the surroundings.
In his gaze, a tent set up as a temporary resting space came into view.
Pointing lightly in that direction, with a flick of his fingers, the support barely holding up the tent wobbled without any wind.
“Hey, hey…!”
Suddenly shaking support made one of the nearby staff hurriedly reach out.
However, the tent collapsed powerless, and in that moment perfectly obscuring everyone’s view, San grabbed Kang’s cheek with both hands.
Then, he lowered his head, pressing his lips deeply against Kang’s.
A faint coffee scent emanated from the moist lips.
It was an impulsive action because he couldn’t endure the overwhelming affection shown by her so casually.
Although it was a short time, he tried to respond to Kang’s feelings in that way.
Her eyes, like a startled deer, widened at the unexpected stolen kiss.
The staff became busy rebuilding the fallen tent.
“Why did this suddenly collapse?”
“Don’t we need a heavier support? We should fix one more in the middle.”
Belatedly, Kang, suspecting that it might be something San did, asked while rolling up the lips he had touched.
“Did you do this?”
“Yeah.”
She muttered seriously, stroking her lips with her fingertips.
“…Gosh. It’s so thrilling.”
Watching the amused Kang, San quietly laughed.
In every moment of every minute, the you who was there was affectionate and precious.
It must be the reason why Father looked at Mother, and Mother looked at Father with such eyes every moment.
He seemed to understand the meaning of the words Romi once said, “The more you look at me, the more I resemble Father.”
It was because his appearance in love resembled his father in love.
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.
