Epilogue

Three hundred years later, demon prince Eimu had decide to leave the serpent kingdom and moved upon the earth near the village. He wanted to stay alone at there without talking to others. When he landed himself at above world. He was searching a safe place for him to stay longer. Then, he found the broken well near the forest. The villagers didn't seem come closer to that well often. So, he landed down in the well and turned himself into the serpent body and sleeping. But one day, the young girl came near the well and playing near the forest. He heard that child's giggling sounds. He knew someone was coming here often. That thing didn't corrupt him at all. Years passed and the girl was being a teenager however she liked to come over to the well. There were beautiful fireflies flew around the well and forest those are things she loved to watch the most. She hadn't friend to play with since she was a kid. There was a person who came after her and watch everything she does. Because of that person she was being frighten and suddenly she slip and fall down into the well. At that day, the demon prince and the girl met in the first time. He thought she might be scare because she saw his real form. She was glancing at him with her starry bright eyes. Then, he looked at her closely and clearly. He gasps for himself and said with softly voice "that was her". He wiped his eyes and looked at there again "Yes, the girl who was smiling and glancing at him without scaring by his natural form. First, he thought that girl was weird. After that, the memories came back to him one by one. His heart said that might be his Shu Ying". He changed his snake body to human form and picked her up and jumped out from the well.

She was just hanging him tight all the way. When he's landing safely, he put her down to the ground and said "are you okay miss". She said "Yes, I am fine, I am sorry for bothering you". At that time, he was surprising over the word she said right now "Are you bothering me, how". She looked away to the forest and said "I knew you are here in the well sleeping all the time but now I accidentally falling into the well and waking you up so I said sorry". He asked her "how did you know I am here". She was looking back at him and said "since I was a kid, I like to play here but my parents and other villagers said don't go there, there was a giant snake sleeping inside the well". Then, she continued "I once looked down to the well and I heard you snoring voice but I won't afraid of you and I thought you might feel tired". They kept their conversations continue until the night fall. When the sun fell down, he decided to take her back to home. She said "don't worry my parents aren't worry about me anymore". He was being shock by her again and he asked "why was that". She said "because they were planning to arrange my marriage with the rich man in town". He said "really, didn't they ask your wish at all". She said "No, they don't". He thought "What the heck! She was being much a like to his Shu Ying all the time". On their road back to home, they did say many things. After he sent back to home, he tried to figure it out what was she talking about. He changed himself as a snake and hearing the words what her parents said inside their bed room. And then, he heard that guy name. He went over the mansion of Yue family. He was trespassing into the mansion and searching Cheng Yue who would marry her soon. When he founded him at the right wing of the mansion, he wanted to kill him right away because he was the person who made her frighten and depress all the time. But he held his temper back and decide to stay by her side and protect her.

Over the whole week, they were together always. Before she went marry to someone, he take her to the temple of Dragon god for praying. The timing was so great because it was lantern festival time. When they arrived the dragon temple, it's the night time. She kneeled in front of dragon god statue and she closed her eyes and put light on the lotus lantern and make a wish. He didn't know what she wished for but this must be the thing he can do for her. He decided to stand by her side always to protect her. After she done wishing, they took that lotus lantern to the river and let it go for sailing all the way to dragon god. The letter she wrote was arriving to dragon god directly. In the letter, she wrote "please, dragon god I am begging you I don't want to marry that ugly rich man in town and I don't want to betray my own heart desire, so please hear my wish and fulfill this once". At the water kingdom and dragon kingdom knew who she was so right now she did this wish from her heart. The Kings made the discussion group and make a decision to help her or not. At last, they got a decision for her. Prince Eimu was watching all her steps and situations all the time. He afraid of her leaving him again. He had a belief if she was marrying the other she could live much longer.

The days came to weeks and the weeks came to months, the wedding day arrived everyone was being happy and celebrating the great wedding ceremony. There had a person who couldn't be happy. That was Mu Yin the girl who was reincarnations of Princess Shu Ying. During the makeup time, she cried softly as herself. Her maids knew she was being so nervous now. But that's not what she felt, inside her heart the blood was boiling and her heart was aching so hard. Then, she was fainting over the floor and then everyone was shocking so they called the doctor for checking her condition. At that time, demon prince arrived and take her to the well. There she was laying over his snake body and falling asleep, an hour later she turned back to normal and then she looked around. She said "where am I". He said "you are with me in the well". She said "what about my wedding ceremony". He said "you are fainting to the floor and I carried you away from there without your permissions". She said "what about my father and mother". He said "don't worry we will greet them later". She raised her eye brow and said "we! What do you mean by that". He used the words which came out from his heart "can you marry me". She was shocking at that time by saying a word "how". He said "we will figure it out later but now I knew that I don't want you to marry that man". She said "can you see inside my heart and mind". He said "No I don't but if you wanted to go back then I can send you back". At that time, she hugged his slippery body and said "I don't want to go back and I don't know how we can be together". He said "we can stay like this forever until the life end". She said "I can't live inside the well forever" with giggling voice. He said "who said".

Then, he stopped for a moment and she looked at his eyes again by playing with his long silky black hair. He held her hands and he said "I am sorry for couldn't let you go again, I am the demon prince of serpent king". She was looking him straight with her starry eyes again but this time the meaning in her eyes was being much different. Then, she said "I remember you always inside my heart I can't marry someone rather than you". She continued "I knew you are bad, but it doesn't matter to me". She said the very last word "whatever you are, you always be my hubby". Then, they were hugging each other. At the deep side of the ocean, the serpent king and dragon king were watching the scene of them loving each other, in the mirror the reincarnated Shu Ying was the bride wearing the red dress and phoenix head dress and the other was the serpent prince who wore the black clothes. The serpent king said "you are kidnapping the bride again". Both of them laughing out loud and they will meet more difficulties and struggles of life. They said "we hoped they can pass through all of those things with the power of love". At the end of their word, they heard the voice and they looked back to the door. She was her eldest sister who took the throne after her. She said "I hoped my dearest sister came back here one day".
