After knocking and receiving no answer, he opened the door to find Chairman Cha, back turned, staring out of the window.
Min Woo approached, making his presence known as it seemed Chairman Cha was unaware of his entry.
“You called for me, Chairman.”
After a moment of silence, Chairman Cha slowly turned his body around.
Smack.
As soon as Chairman Cha turned, he strode up to Min Woo and landed a hard slap on his cheek.
Caught off guard by the sudden strike, Min Woo was unable to react before another blow landed on his cheek.
“You! You’ve ruined everything? All because of that useless girl?”
“Father!”
“I told you three years ago to give up those petty feelings, and yet here you are, messing up because you can’t let go! If you can’t let go of your feelings, you should at least behave properly when meeting. What is this mess!”
He instantly knew that this was about Ji Yeon and Se Ah.
“Please listen to my side of the story, Father”
“What need is there to listen! What are you going to do! Do you know how much money Onyu Pharmaceuticals has invested in us? It’s 200 billion, 200 billion! And what’s more, we are at a crucial point where we have to discuss the extension of the contract this year and negotiate additional investments. What are we going to do if they pull out!”
“……”
“And what is that girl Ji Yeon saying? What does she mean by saying there’s no legal relationship!”
Chairman Cha’s voice, crimsonfaced with excitement, got even louder.
“Well…”
Min Woo who was about to speak the truth, swallowed his words.
Telling this story to Chairman Cha, who was already very angry, would be like pouring oil on fire.
“There’s been a bit of a misunderstanding. Ji Yeon misunderstood something and I’m trying to resolve it.”
“Whether you resolve the misunderstanding or not, it doesn’t matter. The extension of the Onyu Pharmaceuticals contract must be made by any means, just solve it!”
“Yes, understood. Don’t worry. I will meet with Chairman Eun and resolve that issue.”
“And that girl you’re involved with, bring her home this week! I need to see her face myself!”
“I will let you know about Se Ah at the appropriate time.”
Feeling awkward upon hearing Chairman Cha’s words about meeting Se Ah.
He felt it wasn’t the right time for Se Ah to meet Chairman Cha.
“What do you mean by the appropriate time! No need for that, bring her this week!”
Chairman Cha ignored Min Woo’s words and turned around as if he didn’t want to see him, gesturing for him to leave.
Upon seeing Min Woo’s swollen face as he left the room, Secretary Choi looked surprised but didn’t say anything.
“Sigh…… what is this.”
Min Woo, who looked at his face in the bathroom mirror, headed straight to the parking lot.
After several annoying incidents, he didn’t want to stay at the company anymore.
‘I should go to the indoor range and hit some golf balls……’
If he didn’t hit something now, his mood wouldn’t calm down.
Upon arriving home and opening the front door, Min Woo felt something was off.
There were several pairs of unfamiliar shoes scattered at the entrance, and he could hear the noisy chatter of multiple people from inside the house.
“Ma’am, should I wash the curtains today?”
“No, please wash the curtains next time. Today, please clean the living room and the room, and after washing, you need to iron. There are a lot of things to iron.”
“Yes, ma’am.”
The person who received Se Ah’s instructions went inside the room, and another person came closer to Se Ah and asked.
“Ma’am~ there are still side dishes left, so I’m planning to cook today. You asked for galbi and japchae, right?”
“Yes, my husband likes that. He also liked the dish you made last time. Please make it not too salty, like the last time.”
Min Woo felt a shiver of disgust.
Had the food that had been served every day been made by bringing someone to the house? And had she lied as if she had done it herself?
“Jung Se Ah! What is this!”
At the sound of Min Woo’s voice, which was almost a shout, Se Ah and the people helping with the housework all froze for a moment.
“Mi… Min Woo, what brings you here at this time?”
“Jung Se Ah! I’m asking what you’re doing right now!”
Se Ah was so startled by Min Woo’s yell that she fell to the floor, and the people who had been watching from the sidelines quickly slipped out of the house.
Min Woo took big steps towards her.
“Did you find my words that funny? How much time has passed since I said that for you to do this? Did I ask you to do something so difficult? Did you find it funny to see me being fooled every time you lied as if you had made the food yourself?”
“What… what are you saying, Min Woo. I just prepared food from someone who’s good at cooking because I’m not good at it. You also said it was delicious.”
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.
