Chapter 15 - Wake Up Ming.
When Ming went to her room, she shut the door behind her and started thinking about what just happened.
She unconsciously touched her lips, and the scene of Liwei kissing her came to her sight.
She stared in a daze at nowhere.
More than feeling excited she was feeling strange as she don't know what to feel?
She was the wife of another man a few days ago and suddenly came into a different world and became Liwei's wife.
It would be wrong to say that she hated coming to this world. Instead, she felt that she was feeling more relaxed and happy after coming into this world.
This was the first time, she had experienced something like this.
In her past life, though she had consummated her marriage with Ji Cheng, however her first or last night with him was not out of love but can be called lust.
When he came into their wedding room, his eyes were blood red and when he saw her with his hazed eyes, he lost all his senses.
That night, she was tortured to death. But she thought that this is what happens between husband and wife.
She was unaware of the gentle and loving relationship between husband and wife.
She didn't complain about how worn out she was after that night. But her heart ached when he never visited her after that night.
He was always in wars or went to another country. They never get time to spend time together, nor she saw the gentleness in his eyes that she was searching.
But the kiss with Liwei was gentle and loving. When his lips touched hers, she trembled at that sensation.
That feeling when he kissed her was foreign to her. She never received this kind of love in her life, so she was scared and reluctant to receive it.
Does she even deserve to be loved like this? She is not Xie Ming but is it fine for her to be happy?
She had no idea what to feel at this moment.
She thought about the conversation that she had with Liwei. She couldn't understand what went wrong in their relationship which forced them to take divorce or to take suicide?
' Was it his fault that their marriage turned out like this? Or is it Xie Ming?' She sighed when she couldn't understand what happened between them.
He had to marry Xie Ming because of his grandfather.
Although he never loved her, at least he never humiliated her or nor Xie Ming had to face any grievances from her in-laws like her past self.
The main reason that Zhao Ming's life ruined was because of the Empress Dowager and Xiao Li. If they were not in her life, then they might have been living happily together.
She felt that in Xie Ming and Liwei's case, both were equally at fault for their broken marriage. If they had made efforts then they could have made their marriage successful.
But what happened that made Xie Ming to take her life? Was it really a suicide?
Hearing about her, it doesn't seem like that she was a girl who would take her life for someone.
Without Xie Ming's memories, she can't figure out what happened.
Or what is the reason that she came only in her body? Is there any connection between them?
But what connection could there be between the people of two different worlds?
She felt exhausted when she thought about all these things.
After a while, she walked towards the mirror, looking at her reflection she said, " I don't know where you are, but I hope you will be in peace. I don't know the reason why I came to this world, and why I had to take your place."
" I believe that there are many things that they don't know about you. I realized that they had a very bad perspective about you. But I don't know why do I feel that you were not like you pretended to be."
" I know that always what we see and hear is not the truth. Sometimes there is more to the story that nobody knows. You also must have a story that nobody knows." Zhao Ming looked in the mirror and spoke as she looked at her reflection.
For her it was like that she was talking to the real Xie Ming because being in front of the mirror she felt uncomfortable as it was different from her own reflection.
She looked at the mirror with her gentle eyes when suddenly she felt a penetrating pain in her head.
She clutched her head tightly with her hands and squinted her eyes to calm down.
The pain was unbearable as sweat beads appears on her forehead.
Soon, her body was drenched in sweat as her body trembled.
Her legs went weak and her vision went blurry when she collapsed on the floor.
She was still holding her head because the pain was unbearable. The tears flowed from her eyes as she can't control this pain.
She didn't have the energy to call anyone for help. She kept crying and was breathing heavily as it became difficult for her to breathe.
After a while, her vision became hazy and eyelids became heavy and soon closed her eyes.
She fainted as her energy was drained because of the exhaustion and the severe pain in her head.
After some time, Yu Mei knocked on the door who came with the medications of Xie Ming.
She kept knocking on the door and also called out her name but nobody responded.
Liwei who was in the opposite room to Xie Ming heard Yu Mei's voice.
He opened the door and came outside, " What happened? Why are you shouting so much?" he asked her as he was disturbed by her shouting.
Yu Mei looked at him with worry and said, " Master, I came to give these medicines to Miss. But she isn't opening the door. I am worried if something.."
Yu Mei didn't get to complete her words when Liwei's expressions turned dark as he stepped forward and slammed the door with some force and the door opened in an instant.
The door was shut tightly but not locked.
Yu Mei was trying to open it but it was jammed and with Liwei's force, it opened in an instant.
Liwei went inside and was shocked to see Xie Ming who fainted on the floor.
Her face was covered with her hair and the whole body was drenched in sweat.
" Miss." Yu Mei shouted when she saw Xie ming in this condition.
Liwei hurriedly went by her side and removed the hair from her face.
When he saw her pale exhausted face, he panicked.
He tapped her face and realized that her whole body was cold.
" Call the doctor. Now," he shouted at Yu Mei as he picked her up in his arms and led her to her bed.
He carefully laid her on the bed and covered her with the blanket.
He tried to wake her up patting her face and rubbed her ice-cold hands but to no avail.
He rubbed her hands to warm them up.
" Wake up Ming" he whispered slightly as he looked at her ashen face.
