Li Ke Xin
"Where am I?" Li Ke Xin slowly opened her eyes as a dazzling light met her eyes. "Where is this place?" She asked.
"Young miss is awake!" A maid in blue uniform called out. Immediately, a few maids rushed in and a man around his thirties, too, rushed in.
"My dear Zhu'er, how are you?" The man asked Ke Xin.
Ke Xin all looked at them, dumbfounded. Why was she here? She though. Didn't she die? Didn't she fell off a cliff when trying to collect a special kind of 'wind', but was killed by the energy located at the bottom of the cliff instead?
"Zhu'er, you are dozing off. Are you OK?" The man asked Ke Xin once again.
Ke Xin once again looked at the man and asked, "Who are you?"
The man stared at Ke Xin. "Zhu'er, did you really forget me? I am your father!"
Ke Xin looked around her. All the maids around her nodded their heads while Ke Xin sat on the soft bed that was below her.
Suddenly, a sharp pain followed as the memories of the previous owner flowed into her. She slowly regained posture and replied, "Haha, father, how could Zhu'er forget father?"
The man and the maids around all sighed silently. "Master Lin! There is news that the 3rd Prince had returned!"
"Great! Wonderful!" Master Lin exclaimed. He then turned towards Ke Xin and told her, "My dear Zhu'er, your betrothed has returned back. In a few days, you are going to meet him! Aren't you excited?"
Ke Xin nodded her head, pretending to be ecstatic, but was actually sulking inside. A few days eh? Not enough time for myself. And why do ancient people marry so fast? At the age of 15? Seriously?
"Quickly, Zhu'er, lie down, right now, you need to rest so that you can prepare for the marriage!"
Ke Xin rolled her pearly black eyes before lying back onto her bed into a deep slumber...
Lin Zhu'er
When Zhu'er woke up, she realized that she was in a white room filled with...White. That was the only way she could describe the place. White. Everything was white.
She tried sitting up but immediately laid down instead due to the intense pain. "Hong'er..." She called out. No reply. "Qin'er..." There was still no reply.
She started to get annoyed.
Where was Hong'er and Qin'er? They were her personal maids. How could they just leave their mistress alone?!
Zhu'er then heard a voice outside.
A few minutes later, the voices died down, and instead, was the voice of a young girl.
"How is she?" The voice demanded before charging into the room.
"Ke Xin! You are finally awake! How have you been!"
Zhu'er looked at the young girl.
Then suddenly, intense pain filled her. The memories of Li Ke Xin flooded into her mind.
Oh...so she is now in the body of Li Ke Xin...the well-known genius illegitimate daughter of the Jin Clan.
Seeing that Zhu'er was not responding, the girl looked at Zhu'er with a worried expression. "Ke Xin? Are you alright?"
Zhu'er then realized that she was not alone and nodded her head mildly.
The young girl smiled weakly at her and tucked her back to 'bed', where she soon dozed off...
