ETERNAL LOVE : A LOVE STORY

Chapter 750 - The Curse (25)

Zhao Ming frowned in her sleep as the familiar weak voice disturbed her sleep. She gritted her teeth as she put focus to understand the words of that voice which sounded like whispers, " Zhao Mi...Ming, you..have to...come back. The curse...burn that hairpin on the full-"

Her eyes snapped open when the source of the voice was cut off suddenly. She was sweating and panted to breathe; she looked around to find that it was still dark and realized that she was just dreaming.

The dream that cannot be seen but could be heard only. She turned to her side and looked at Ji Cheng who was sleeping beside her, still deep in sleep.

She caressed his face and commented," He sleeps like a baby." The cheeriness in her eyes was replaced by a worn look. Seeing his face like this, she was reminded of their past that has connected them with a thin thread.

She has forgotten the real reason for her to be in this world. She was so busy enjoying her life that she has forgotten that she needs to end the curse to prevent any biggest misfortune.

She might belong to this world, but Ji Cheng needs to go back. And there is no way that she and Xie Ming can stay together in one world. One has to go back, otherwise-

" I need to break the curse. I have no time left now," she murmured as she remembered how rapidly the weather is changing these days. The cold weather that was bothering her a few days ago was disappearing and was being replaced by spring.

Aunt Shen Jia has told her that to end the curse, she and Xie Ming have to burn the hairpin together on the full moon night when the weather would be changing. Although she doesn't understand much about these things, according to her description, this time seems to be the best.

Zhao Ming didn't go to sleep and went to look for Xie Ming. She slowly opened the door of Xie Ming's bedroom and peeked inside. However, a frown appeared on her forehead when she realized that Xie Ming was not on her bed.

" Where is she?" she wondered.

" What are you doing?" She jumped in startled when she heard a low voice, whispering in her eyes. When she turned around, she found Xie Ming standing behind her, staring at her suspiciously.

She sighed and patted her chest, " Why are you roaming in the house like a ghost?" Zhao Ming complained while patting her chest to calm down.

Xie Ming pursed her lips and responded, " It's good that you're awake. We need to talk." She said and turned towards the study room.

Zhao Ming looked at Xie Ming and hesitated before saying, " That curse- Both of them said at the same time. Zhao Ming looked at Xie Ming in surprise and gestured to her to speak first.

Xie Ming nodded and said, " Well, I think it's time we should discuss this. I didn't tell you earlier, but when Jian Yan confessed to me that day, I saw that..that Emperor Yang Hanying's appearance in me. Even though his face is identical to that man, I saw his appearance changing into that man. Although it was only for a brief moment, it was still very scary."

" You and Ji Cheng are also here. I don't have a good feeling about this. It's not that we both can exist in the same world at the same time for long. That is not possible in any way, I think..before anything can go wrong, we need to find a way to end that curse." Xie Ming said.

Zhao Ming nodded, agreeing to her words. " I also wanted to talk to you about the same. While sleeping, I had a strange dream. In that dream, I heard Aunt Shen Jia's voice, she was telling me to come back and asking me to burn that curse on the auspicious day of the full moon. She couldn't complete her words though, but I understood what she was talking about."

" Her voice, she sounded really weak. I think she tried to contact me through my dreams using her special technique. But I am afraid that it would have taken too much energy of her. She is already getting weak and on top of that, this-" She pursed her lips thinking about the effect of this on Aunt Shen Jia.

Xie Ming frowned upon hearing her words, " Full Moon?" she murmured while being in thought. Her eyes widened in surprise as she realized something, " If you're talking about the upcoming full moon, it's in two days."

" Two days? For real?" Zhao Ming asked in shock.

Xie Ming nodded. " Actually, since the day we came back from that strange dark place where we were trapped, I was having bloody dreams on certain days and realized that it was the full moon night. I found it strange so I started keeping track of days and full moon nights. Are you sure she talked about the full moon night?"

" But as long as I remember, when Tan Xiu died there was no moon. It was ghostly-dark night." Zhao Ming said in confusion. She can't understand why they are supposed to burn the hairpin on the full moon night.

Xie Ming thought for a moment and her eyes lit up as she found the answer, " No! There were clouds when she looked into the sky for the last time. It was a cloudy night, which means the moon might be there but could be covered by the moons. Then it makes sense why we need to put everything on end on the full moon day."

" But I tried to break the hairpin but couldn't. It's too powerful and strong. We can't break it with our bare hands." Xie Ming said, remembering the time she tried to break the hairpin, instead, she started to feel exhausted because of it.

" We don't need to break it, but burn it. The only way to end this curse is to combine our energy and burn both hairpins that we have altogether on the day of the full moon night. Only then it can end." Zhao Ming said hesitatingly.

" Both hairpins? You also have one? I used to think that only I have one, and it is the one I used in the palace." Xie Ming nodded as she found something new. She was not thinking that her hairpin was still in the palace.

" But...did you bring your hairpin here? I mean..didn't you and Ji Cheng come into this palace suddenly, did you bring it here with you?" Xie Ming asked, staring at her expectantly.

Zhao Ming bit her lower lip and said, " Well, I had the hairpin before I left the palace. However...seems like I dropped it in the lake when I was drowning in the water."

Zhao Ming pursed her lips remembering how she placed the hairpin carefully in the silver box before leaving the palace. However, right before leaving, she took the hairpin with her that day, she didn't know the reason but her instincts were telling her to take it away with her.

" Lake? You dropped it into the lake?" Xie Ming's eyes widened hearing her words. They found the hairpin with much difficulty and if she dropped it somewhere, it would have been difficult to end this curse before anything can happen.
