Chapter 627 - The Curse..has Not Ended Yet.
The next day from the release of Eternal Love, Xie Ming's phone buzzed which was placed on the side table. She frowned and glanced at the time and it was only 8 in the morning.
Not only her but Liwei's sleep got disturbed because of her phone ringing. Since it's Saturday, they were sleeping in and she didn't go for her training today.
She picked up her phone and saw an unfamiliar number. Just as she picked it up, she heard a familiar voice.
Xie Ming sat straight on the bed and replied hesitantly, " Yes, Mr. Han."
" Xie Ming... I mean, Mrs. Jin, I hope I didn't disturb your sleep. And I apologize if I did." He said politely.
"-_-"
She was speechless seeing the way he was talking to her. She has never heard him being so polite to others.
" No.. it's fine. And Mr. Han, you can call me Xie Ming like before. You don't need to use formalities with me. " She said in a low voice.
She felt awkward being called Mrs. Jin like this. Since they have found out that she is Liwei's wife, everyone has become too polite and nice to her.
Mr. Han sighed lightly hearing her words. He was also tired of using formalities but he was afraid to anger Jin Liwei.
He wasn't aware before that she is Mrs. Jin. He can't believe that Jin Liwei's wife, Mrs. Jin made her debut in his movie.
It's a proud moment for him. He can't be happier than this.
" Mr. Han, you called me this early for something?"
He cleared his throat upon hearing her question and said, " Ahem, Yes. I just wanted to tell you about the box office result of the first day. I just couldn't keep the excitement to myself. "
Xie Ming became serious hearing his words. She saw the comments last night before sleeping.
They were positive, so she was expecting a good result.
" Eternal Love has crossed the 70 crore collection at the box office in just one day. In one day! This is one of the best collections that a movie has earned in just one day in my entire directing career. Not only that, but our movie is also the only historical movie to reach this level." He said proudly.
When he found out the results of the box office collection, he just couldn't remove the smug smile off his face.
He was worried about what happened at the premiere. First, Yuan Lei's issue and then Xie Ming's big revelation. Everyone was talking about their scandal but not the movie.
He was quite worried about it, but after knowing the results, he just couldn't control his big smile. [ Read this novel on W e b n o v e l . c o m ( remove spaces).

Xie Ming was surprised as well. She was not expecting it to do well but not this much. Hearing Mr. Han's booming voice, she can assume how good these results must be.
" Xie Ming, it's all because of you and your performance. Everyone is talking about the Empress and your acting. I am glad that I chose you as Meng Huang."
Xie Ming smiled and said, " Mr. Han, this movie is successful not only because of me but it's because of everyone's collective hard work. And I should thank you for giving this opportunity to me."
After talking for a few more minutes, she hung up the phone. Just as she was about to place the phone down, she heard Liwei's voice.
" So my wife's movie topped the box office collections, hmm?" His voice was husky since he just woke up.
She turned to him and asked, " You heard everything?"
He nodded and pulled her in his arms, he gave her a peck on her forehead and said, " I am so proud of you, My Empress."
"-_-"
Her smile froze when she heard his words. Hearing the word Empress from his mouth feels different and a little strange.
Liwei saw her uncomfortable expressions and pursed his lips. Something tucked in his heart as he suddenly remembered Bai Ju's words.
However, he dissipated those thoughts from his mind instantly. It's better to not think about things that don't have any reason.
...
After a few days, Xie Ming returned to the Jin Villa from the hospital after giving an acupuncture session to the woman.
She has checked her previous reports and was satisfied seeing her progressing condition. Two months are about to complete and her condition seems much better.
If this continues, then she will get better in less than three months. Everyone was surprised to see her condition improving so much. She looks much better than before and her face color has returned as well.
She changed her clothes and went to her room to take a nap after having lunch. Since she has nothing else to do, she decided to take rest.
When sleep came to her as soon as her head touched the pillow, she felt the darkness in front of her eyes. It was pitch black but she could hear someone calling her name.
" Zhao Mi." The voice was low and she couldn't hear someone calling her name.
"Zhao Min."
" Zhao Ming"
The voice was very low but familiar at the same time. Her brows scrunched up while sleeping as she tried to focus and hear the voice properly.
" Zhao Ming."
Her hands trembled slightly as she murmured in her sleep, " Aunt Shen Jia?"
The darkness was still there but she could hear her weak voice.
" Zhao Ming, I hope you could hear my voice, my child. This is the only way I can connect to you." Xie Ming's face turned pale when she heard this.
" Zhao Ming, I don't want you to worry about anything as you live your new life. The girl in whose body you're in, she is living here as you, the Empress of Ji DYnasty. However, you don't need to worry about her, that girl is quite strong and brave and is living her life well."
" I just wanted to inform you about this so that you can live as Xie Ming without any guilt. And there is one more thing that I want to tell you."
" The curse..has not ended yet. You need to find that thing..which is joining your present with the past to get out of this circle of the curse. You need to destroy that thing to get away from this curse...You..and Xie Ming...are.." the voice suddenly turned weak and soon it stopped.
Instead of Shen Jia's voice, she heard her phone ringing. Her eyes flew open as she woke up from this bizarre dream.
She sat on the bed in shock and was panting heavily. She was covered in sweat and her face had turned pale.
" What..what was that dream?"
