Chapter 5 - Charming?
When Liwei left the room, he met with the doctor to know more about her condition and doctors also confirmed that she has amnesia because of being in a coma for the past three months.
They told him that, her memories could come if she gets proper rest and she should not take any stress.
He thought to himself that, 'So she lost her memories. But her behavior was very different from the previous Xie Ming that I know.'
'She seems... Somehow a little charming?' he thought for a while then suddenly shook his head.
'No, it was I who lost his mind. Yeah. That's right. I am the one who lost his mind that I am finding her charming.'

After a few days, Xie Ming got discharged and the past days in the hospital, she had asked Yu mei about everything that she needed to know about the real Xie Ming.
She got to know more about the relationship between her and Jin Liwei. She married Liwei because of her grandfather's last wish.
But he doesn't love her, and they were living like strangers in the same room. They even sleep in different rooms.
Yu mei told her about the relationship of real Xie Ming with her father, Xie Rong.
The relationship between Xie Ming and Xie Rong has been estranged since he brought his mistress Rouxi home after Xie Ming's mother died.
Not only that, he also brought his daughter Xinyi whom he had with Rouxi.
The age difference between Xie Ming and Xie Xinyi was only a few months apart.
It angered her that her father cheated on her mother. Not only that he had the guts to bring his mistress and daughter home.
After her mother died, he forged the documents and transferred all the inheritance to his name.
She got to know that he had married her mother just because of her inheritance and property.
Only her maternal Grandfather loves her truly. He was the one who arranged her marriage with Jin Liwei with his friend, the old Jin, who was the grandfather of Liwei.
After knowing all this, Zhao Ming started pitying the real Xie Ming because after facing all this betrayal, hatred from her own family, she must have been devasted.
Yu mei told her that Xie Ming went abroad when she was only 15 years old and has spent 7 years of her life, alone in that foreign country.
' She must have been so lonely alone there.' Zhao Ming pondered about the real Xie Ming.
After hearing Yu Mei's words she realized that Xie Ming may not be as bad as people think about her.
She was just a girl who lost her mother at a very young age and his father cheated her mother also brought a daughter as same as her age to home.
Not only that he wanted to stay peacefully and lovingly with Xinyi in the same house.
Her relationship with her father was distant and estranged.
….
When Xie Ming left hospital with Yu Mei, she noticed a strange large thing made of tin and stared at it in bewilderment.
Yu Mei passed the luggage to the driver and went to Xie Ming who was standing at the hospital entrance in a daze.
She tapped on Xie Ming's shoulders and said, " Miss. let's go. The master has sent a car for us. We should hurry and go, it seems that it's going to rain soon." she said while rubbing her hands together.
The weather was cold and the sky was getting dark with all the dark clouds gathering and hiding the bright sunlight.
Xie Ming looked at Yu Mei and asked while pointing towards the car, " What is this thing?"
Yu Mei: " -_-"
She smiled awkwardly and replied, " Miss, this is the car. We should hurry and sit it in. It would take us to the Jin Villa where you live." she said carefully.
Yu Mei was used to explain things in detail as she asks questions after seeing every small little thing.
Xie Ming didn't understand but still decided to sit in the car.
When she sat on the backseat of the car, she looked at the interior in awe.
The car was spacious and the interior was lavishly designed.
Xie Ming was startled when the car suddenly starts moving.
She tightly clutched Yu Mei's hands and said, " It's moving. AHh. This thing is moving very fast. I am feeling dizzy." she screamed in fear as she tightly held on the seat in front of her.
The driver who was driving at the speed of turtle was shocked to see her overdramatic reaction.
Yu Mei tried to pat her hand slightly as she coaxed her to be fine.
After a while, Xie Ming felt fine and she looked out of the window and admired the beauty of this city.
" Waah. This place has many strange tin boxes moving on the road. And the buildings are all so high and different. This place has changed a lot." she mumbled to herself.
She was the Empress who came from the past to the 21st century.
She must be the only person who has witnessed the evolution of the world by time with her own bare eyes.
This place has changed drastically with time.
Everything became so fast and crowded and different. Many strange things can be seen on the road.
Girls were also wearing very independent as they could also work and wear so little and strange clothes without being judged by anyone.
She was shocked seeing this culture change and surprised as well. The condition of girls was not as same as in her times.
They can marry someone on their own accord and have the right to study as well. Everything seems so progressed and different.
She was wondering what if she has originally born in this world.
' Would her life be different if she had born in this century?'
