He seemed to be heading somewhere, but he didn’t mention any destination.
‘Where could he be going?’
After a while, I could determine the destination only when I saw Daejin Hospital gradually approaching.
What? Was the destination the hospital where my parents are?
“If you’re going to the hospital, you should have told me in advance.”
Jae Ha’s lips drew a gentle curve, perhaps having heard my murmuring.
Dr. Kim briefly talked about the condition of my parents and then left the room.
Their unchanged appearance remained the same.
Neither getting better nor worse.
To the question of whether there was a possibility of recovery, the doctor merely shook his head weakly.
Perhaps it was a miracle that they were enduring like this.
Since my grandfather passed away in a previous life and they followed soon after.
‘To endure breathing like this…’
How could this be the best?
But still, it was a comfort to have them by my side like this.
I recalled that the doctor suggested surgery with a low success rate.
However, I couldn’t gamble with my parents’ lives on a chance like that.
“I’m sorry. I can’t bear to let my mom and dad go yet.”
It might be a selfish desire not to be alone. A pitiful daughter’s desire to hold on to them, even like this.
It was a moment when my trembling hands were clenching my fists.
[Ding] Drrring.The sound of the door opening was followed by Jae Ha returning after being absent for a while.
He held a vase of flowers, which I didn’t know when he had prepared.
When he placed it on the table between my parents’ beds, he wore a suit on a weekend morning.
Why did he dress up like this? Oh, right, he must have wanted to see my parents.
“Since Jae Ha didn’t tell me where he’s going, I don’t know what to wear.”
Jae Ha approached me, who was contemplating the wardrobe, and spoke.
“Ah, dress neatly. Because we’re going to meet the most respectable people in the world.”
The most respectable people he mentioned were my parents.
In the midst of the sudden wedding preparations, I hadn’t thought about finding my parents together with him.
‘I was planning to come alone.’
Considering that Jae Ha also seemed busy lately, I had thought I should go alone.
But I didn’t expect him to come to the hospital first.
What he prepared didn’t seem to be just a hospital visit.
Jae Ha, who put down the vase, approached me, who was looking at him from a distance.
Then, he took my hand and led me to the bedside where my parents were.
“Father, mother. I’ve visited several times, but greetings are overdue. I am Seo Jae Ha.”
“…….”
“We’ve set the date for our wedding. It’s at the end of this month, next week to be exact. So, I’ve come to formally greet you. It’s too late, but…”
As Jae Ha’s unexpected words continued, I looked at him with surprised eyes.
Jae Ha, sensing my gaze, continued his words towards my parents with polite gestures.
“Chairman Yoon understands better than anyone the concern about being the only daughter left when my grandfather passed away. Dr. Kim said you don’t have much time allowed, but it’s all because of Yeo Jin worrying about you.”
It seemed like he heard the doctor’s opinion that they wouldn’t last long without surgery.
Along with my guilt towards my parents…
“Yeo Jin isn’t alone. I will be by her side. So, please don’t worry too much, Yeo Jin.”
My heart tightened.
Jae Ha, feeling my trembling hand, glanced at me as if to sense it.
Then, he firmly grasped the hand he held, preventing it from trembling any further.
“Lastly, thank you for raising this person so beautifully and properly.”
The man, who didn’t bow to anyone else, greeted my parents confidently.
Jae Ha’s words, so sincere and full of respect, made my heart heavy.
Indescribable emotions surged, and my throat choked up.
I didn’t know it would go this far…
“Yeo Jin, greet them too.”
As I met Jae Ha’s eyes, tears welled up.
He was looking at me with eyes more affectionate and warm than anyone else.
Perhaps it was because I felt his sincerity, a deep sense of remorse for revenge surged again.
‘Now I don’t know. Are the things I’m doing the right ones…’
I wanted to deny the weakening of my heart like this.
Why did I come back at that moment when I was dying.
Did I really come back for revenge? Or is there no other meaning?
When I woke up at the wedding, what if I had called my parents instead of looking for Ji Han? Could I have saved my family?
If I had given up revenge, what kind of life would I be living now?
Countless possibilities created a complex whirlwind in my mind.
With the belated remorse, my nose became stuffy. It felt like tears could fall at any moment.
“I’ll be back in a moment. I’m saying hello.”
Jae Ha handed me tissues and left the room.
Seeing my reddened eyes, it seemed like he purposely gave me space.
Wiping away tears with the tissue he gave, I approached my parents.
Still, the warmth of my mom and dad’s hands could be felt.
“Mom, Dad. Did you see the flowers Jae Ha brought? It’s a gift for both of 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.
