After Losing My Memory, I Left My Husband and Daughter

[The second male lead was supposed to be the official partner, but now he’s reduced to being the other man for love, while the heroine doesn’t even want him (because Jinjiang won’t let her choose him).]

[The male lead is the current official partner: cool and chaste, driven mad by the second male lead’s manipulative sweetness.]

Blurb:

Shen Qinghe has lost her memory.

Fortunately, although she cannot remember anything, she has a loving family and a husband who loves her more than life itself.

Her only complaint is that her husband, Venerable Xuan Cang, is the leader of the righteous immortal sects and far too cold and chaste. He is practically a walking fossil.

She even wonders how she could have fallen for this fossil before losing her memory!

Apart from that, Shen Qinghe thinks everything is wonderful!

Until one day, the cultivation world holds a grand debate on the Dao, with all the major sects gathered in one place. Then the Demon Lord Ye Jingqiu bursts in with a little girl who looks just like her.

As the sect leader’s wife, Shen Qinghe sits beside her husband, Venerable Xuan Cang, at the head of the hall, and hears Ye Jingqiu accuse her to her face: “Shen Qinghe, you seduced me, abandoned your husband, and left your daughter behind!”

A bolt from the blue!

At that moment, Shen Qinghe watches her supposedly cold and chaste husband’s eyes blaze with fury. “Madam, care to explain what kind of relationship you have with this other man?!”

Shen Qinghe: ...Explain? Explain what? She has lost her memory. What does the person she was before have to do with the person she is now?

Venerable Xuan Cang half-believes her and gets into a fierce fight with the Demon Lord on her behalf. The entire cultivation world soon learns that the Venerable’s wife is involved with the Demon Lord!

Later...

She remembers.

Oh, before she lost her memory, she had picked up a little girl and tricked the Demon Lord into thinking the girl was their child. He believed her and married her.

Then she got bored and abandoned her husband and daughter.

And after losing her memory, she found herself a new lover!

Later still...

The Demon Lord secretly visits her behind her current husband’s back and asks, “If you really don’t want to go home, I can bring our daughter and move in as your concubine!”

Shen Qinghe: ...?

No, you don’t want that. This is Jinjiang, you don’t want to be a concubine!

And besides... how is she supposed to tell him that the girl isn’t their daughter, and that she made the whole thing up?

The Demon Lord: “Then I’m younger. That fossil is old and past his prime. I can wait until he kicks the bucket!”

Shen Qinghe: ...?

Maybe the Demon Lord is a tiny bit younger than her current husband, but only a tiny bit! He actually wants to wait for her current husband to die? That’s hard to judge.

But faced with the Demon Lord’s intimidating stare, she gives in through her tears. “Fine. Wait as long as you like!”

The Demon Lord is satisfied. Then she turns around and sees her current husband’s face dark as thunder!

Shen Qinghe: ...I have reason to suspect the Demon Lord did that on purpose.

Message: Being the other woman is no good.
