ETERNAL LOVE : A LOVE STORY

Xie Ming, who was sleeping in Liwei's arms frowned. Her expressions turned uncomfortable when she saw a familiar place in her dream. It was the palace. 

She saw her chamber in her dream. Everything was so familiar. However, the scene in front of her was foreign to her. 

In her dream, Ji Cheng was sitting in her room and beside him.. She was sitting beside him? She felt dizzy when he saw her past self sitting beside him. 

However, her mind turned hazy when she heard his words. 

He was telling Zhao Ming who was sitting beside her how helpless he was at the time they got married and how he was unaware of her hardships. 

She felt a tug at her heart seeing the regret on his face. She could feel his sincerity and regret in his eyes. 

His hatred seems to be fading away when she hears his words. She always thought that he was ruthless and cruel to her, but she never knew his side of the story. 

Now since  she is  in love with Liwei and was happy in her life, she didn't feel regret about anything. Since all this led to her current happiness. 

But what made her perplexed was, how can she sit beside him? Because this has never happened in her previous life. 

She never talked to Ji Cheng about things like this. She was sure that it was not her memories of him. 

Then what is it? 

" Xie Ming" 

. 

" Xie Ming, wake up. We have reached." Liwei shook her to wake her up as they had already reached home. 

She was startled and woke up with a shock when he suddenly woke her up. 

She was in daze when she woke up. 

She couldn't comprehend the dream. She could not understand if that dream was true or just her imagination? 

However, it felt so real that it was difficult to call it a dream. 

" If I am here, then who was she?" She was confused because she had no idea what happened to the Zhao Ming in the Ji Dynasty. 

She clearly remembered the face of the girl sitting beside Ji Cheng. It was her past self. 

Shouldn't she die in the Ji Dynasty if she is here? Then why was there another Zhao Ming? What exactly happened to her past self? 

Am I dead in that world or not? 

She felt uncomfortable just thinking about the possibility of what if she is still alive. What if she has to go back leaving Liwei behind? 

She felt strange as she didn't understand if her dream was true or just a casual dream. 

Liwei saw her that she was not moving and was still in her sleepy state. 

He sighed and picked her up in his arms and carried her inside the Villa. 

Xie Ming didn't struggle and snuggled into his embrace when he picked her up. 

He smiled faintly seeing her obedience. He thought that she was being like this because she had just got up and was still in her sleepy state. 

' Was all that real?' She wondered who would be that girl if she was in this world. She wrapped her arms around his neck as she felt scared of leaving him. 

… 

Ji Dynasty. 

After talking to Zhao Ming about the past and opening his heart to her, Ji Cheng felt much better. 

Their deep conversation made them more comfortable with each other. 

Ji Cheng ordered Lu shi to bring their dinner and after a few minutes Lu shi brought a tray which was full of various dishes which made Zhao Ming salivate for them. 

Zhao Ming grinned seeing so many items and got ready to eat and picked up her chopsticks. 

Lu shi frowned because Zhao Ming again forgot that his majesty should eat the dishes first and then she could start eating. 

However, Ji Cheng was now used to it and signaled Lu shi to go back. Lu shi bowed to him and left the room.

" Ahmm. It's so delicious." Zhao Ming happily exclaimed when she tasted the tender meat.

Ji Cheng smiled seeing her dancing with her hands while eating. He chuckled and said, " Then you should eat more." he placed another dish of meat in her bowl. 

She grinned and said," I will."

He chuckled because generally people respond with, ' You should eat as well' but she said, ' I will.' 

During their dinner, Ji Cheng was staring at her with a faint smile on his face as she was gobbling all the food on the table. 

" Ahh, I am full." Zhao Ming rubbed her stomach after eating most of the dishes herself. 

Ji Cheng pursed his lips as he glanced at the empty plates. 

Of course, she is full. She has eaten almost 5 out of 8 dishes herself. There were around 8 dishes on the table excluding the side dishes. 

" I think I should take a walk in the garden. Otherwise I will become fat in no time." Zhao Ming lazily got up as she decided to go out and take a stroll. 

Ji Cheng smiled and got up as well. Zhao Ming looked at him in confusion wondering why he got up. 

" I am coming with you as well. " he said with an expression on his face, ' Isn't it obvious?' 

Zhao Ming was caught off guard because she was not expecting him to accompany her. She nodded unconsciously as they walked out of her chamber. 

Zhao Ming was relaxed since she felt much better after talking to him about his past. Just as she has imagined, he is not a bad guy. 

He was misled and many times misunderstood. She felt that he was like her in some ways. 

She was misled due to her rebellious nature after experiencing betrayal from her close ones and has hurted the people who cared about her. 

Even though it was not her intention to hurt them but in some ways she did hurt their feelings. 

She turned to the side to glance at him and a smile appeared on her face seeing his attractive look. She has never even thought in her wild dream that one day she would be taking a walk in the garden with an Emperor. 

" Zhao Ming, now since we have talked about many things, I want to tell you one more thing." Ji Cheng said as he glanced at her. 

Zhao Ming stopped in her steps when she heard his words. She became attentive and looked at him with curiosity. 

Ji Cheng saw her curiosity and said," Now since we have talked about things, I hope you don't keep anything in your heart. I want you to tell me everything and does not want to hide anything from me." he said with seriousness and warmth in his eyes. 

" Also, I want you to know that since you have the powers of the Empress, you don't need to worry about anything or anyone. I am giving you the assurance that no one can do harm to you or can take these powers from you." 

A smile appeared on Zhao Ming's face when she heard his words.  His words were indirectly hinting that she can deal with people in her way and doesn't have to be afraid of anyone. 

" Even if that person is your mother? " she said with a hint of curiosity in her voice. 

She doesn't want to be this straightforward but for some reason she can't control her tongue and speak her mind in front him.
