ETERNAL LOVE : A LOVE STORY

In the morning, Xie Ming gathered everyone in Liwei's study room. Ji Cheng and Liwei were sitting on the sofa while Xie Ming and Zhao Ming were sitting on the chair across them. Liwei looked at Xie Ming in confusion and asked, " What happened? Why do you guys look so lost? And what's this meeting for?"

Ji Cheng also looked at Zhao Ming in puzzlement. They called them to meet in the morning and were staring at them without saying anything. Their hesitation was making them confused and worried. 

Xie Ming pursed her lips and glanced at Zhao Ming before saying, " We have called both of you guys here to..tell you something." she said hesitantly. 

" Tell us something? What else has left to tell now?" Ji Cheng asked coldly. Their expressions were telling them that there is something big that they are hiding. 

Zhao Ming knitted her brows and said, " The reason why I and Zhao Ming changed bodies. We thought that before we do anything, you guys should also know that. Our past, and yours too." she said while looking into Ji Cheng's eyes which made him a little flustered. 

" Our past?" He asked in a questionable tone, not getting her words. 

Zhao Ming smiled at him and nodded, " That's right. Our Past. I have already told you that Liwei is your reincarnation just like me, but there is a connecting past of all of our lives, that you should know." 

Ji Cheng and Liwei frowned, not understanding what they are trying to say. They glanced at each other in confusion and looked at their wives to explain clearly.

Ji Dynasty

Shen Jia was lying on the bed weakly. Her face has turned pale and haggard since the day Ji Cheng and Zhao Ming went missing. The rumors have spread in the palace like a wildfire among the servants and guards. However, when she overheard a maid, she was not so surprised upon hearing this news, because she was already aware of their whereabouts. 

It was her who saved Zhao Ming another day when she fell into the lake. Thanks to the special power that she had received from her ancestors, she managed to feel the danger in which Zhao Ming was in, after all, she is related to her by blood. It was not so difficult to find out the condition in which Zhao Ming is in. 

The plan she was supposed to execute a few days later, she decided to do that time. She used all her powers she has saved in these past months and helped her cross the worlds once again. She was planning to do this to solve the mystery of this curse and send her across the world to burn the hairpin together with Xie Ming. However, who would have thought that something like this would happen before that. 

It was a sign of danger, the threat to Zhao Ming's life. 

After using the special method to invade Zhao Ming's dreams, her body became weaker and haggard. Most of her hair turned grey while her face was turning pale. The excessive use of her special powers given to her by her ancestors was taking a toll on her body. 

She sighed tiredly and closed her heavy eyelids, " I hope she understands my words. The danger is approaching now." she murmured before falling asleep again.

Xie Ming stared at Liwei who was still in shock and was staring at her with his lips parted in bewilderment. " Liwei…" she called out in a low voice, worried that he might be angry with her. 

Liwei woke up from his trance upon hearing her voice and looked at her in surprise. " Xie Ming, so..you're saying that we're connected from the past? You and I...used to love each other in the past as well?" He asked in disbelief. 

He used to feel jealous of Ji Cheng who had married her before, has seen her growing and her childhood while he knows nothing about her past. How she used to look or anything but knowing that they were connected from past lives made him feel elated than upset.

Xie Ming was relieved seeing his reaction and nodded. She was getting worried thinking that he might be angry but his reaction was different than she had expected. She did the right thing by telling them about their past and the curse. 

Zhao Ming bit her lower lip seeing Ji Cheng who seemed to be deep in thought. Even though they are connected from their pasts, things were changing and taking a different course by the time, however, the result was the same. The separation and death. If not for Shen Jia, they were supposed to face the tragic end once again. both she and Zhao Ming were supposed to die without experiencing the love from their partners. 

After thinking for a while, Ji Cheng stared at Xie Ming and questioned, " What if we failed to find that hairpin and burn it tomorrow night as you guys are saying, what will happen then?"

Xie Ming was caught off by his sudden question but responded calmly, " We don't know about that far as well. However, whatever will happen won't be good. The chances of happening the same thing are probably high, especially to Zhao Ming and me. We are the cursed one, after all." she said bitterly. 

Ji Cheng didn't comment on that and turned to Zhao Ming who was staring at him cautiously. He remembered about the dreams that he had sometimes where he used to see a girl named Tan Xiu and had unexplainable feelings and things going in his head afterward. 

So this was what those dreams were about? He wondered. 

Although he doesn't remember their past life clearly, hearing what happened made him sad for some reason. How can he fail to protect her in that life and this as well? She almost died again because of drowning in the lake, he almost lost her again. 

What happened between him and Zhao Ming in the past was bound to happen, however it does not reduce the fact that he was at fault but some things were not meant to be. However, in his relationship with Xie Ming who later became Zhao Ming, their relationship flourished naturally, there were trust and mutual understanding between them. 

The questions he was trying to solve, the answers to those questions were in front of her all the time. He was just not acknowledging those answers as right.

" Let's go then." Zhao Ming and others looked at Ji Cheng in confusion when he suddenly stood up. 

" Where?" Zhao Ming asked. 

" Didn't you say that we need to find the hairpin to end this curse? Let's go and find that hairpin," he said. 

" But where? Didn't I tell you that I might have lost it at the lake? How can we go back?"

" You said the lake, right? Then I know where we can find the hairpin." He smirked mysteriously, making everyone look at him in confusion.
