Chapter 755 - The Curse ( 30 ) (2/2)

Zhao Ming placed the bouquet of pink roses that was her mother's favorite on the ground and caressed the tree with a bitter smile, ” Mom, it's been a long time, isn't it?”

” See, whom I brought with me to see you? He is Ji Cheng, my husband, and your son-in-law,” she said with a quivering voice. She clenched her fists and was doing her best to not let the tears fall.

” Mom, I am going to be a mother, can you believe it?” she laughed and tried to brush off her tears. ”Please give us your blessing.” she bowed, while tears gathered in her eyes. Ji Cheng rubbed her back and supported her shoulders, he looked at Li Nian's photo and said, ” Mother, don't worry. I will take good care of your daughter. I won't repeat the same mistakes again. I promise.” he said, making Zhao Ming turn her head to look at him.

” Please give us your blessings. Your blessings will make her at ease.” He said, at which Zhao Ming could only smile.

At night, Xie Ming was in the car while Zhao Ming was sitting beside her in the back seat. Liwei was driving while Ji Cheng was sitting on the passenger seat. She pulled down the window and looked at the brightly-lit full moon that was following them.

She sighed softly seeing the full-moon. It was the moon that is going to change their lives forever.

However, there was a fear rippling in her heart, what if something goes wrong? What if the curse doesn't end even after doing all this? What if Zhao Ming and Ji Cheng couldn't go back and something happened?

All the bad thoughts were giving her a headache. She let out a tired sigh and glanced at Zhao Ming who had her eyes closed and was resting. She placed a hand on hers and realized how her hands were trembling in nervousness.

” Zhao Ming..” she called her out in a low voice, making her open her eyes. Zhao Ming saw a worried look in her eyes and shook her head, assuring her that she is fine.

She was trying to be fine, but fear was making her hands tremble in nervousness. She is not alone, she has another little-life to take care of now. She remembered that Shen Jia has told her that this ritual is not easy.

It's not only energy draining but can be life-threatening if not executed correctly. I hope everything goes fine. She wondered.

She looked at the hairpin in her hand and took a deep breath, to gather her courage.

After getting off the car, Zhao Ming frowned as she looked at the strange-secluded place, where no one could be seen. The area was dark, with no light around. There was only moonlight to show them the way.

She rubbed her hands due to the cold night-breeze and how creepy the whole atmosphere was. She was startled when Ji Cheng placed a jacket on her shoulders from behind and whispered in her ears, ” Wear it.”

They are now wearing the same clothes that they wore when they came into this world. Since they need to go back, they can't possibly go back in the clothes of this world.

How would people react if they were found to be wearing a short dress, while Ji Cheng in tight jeans and shirt? They will fain out of shock. However, she was surprised that he has the sense to prepare a spare jacket for her, to protect her from the cold.

” What place is this? It's so dark and creepy?” Zhao Ming asked while looking around, it looked like some abandoned-old palace.

” It's Ji Palace. By the time, it has not only lost its grandeur but also got ruined in the long span of time due to wars and invasions.” Xie Ming stated as she looked at the palace, which doesn't look royal and exquisite, all left there were ruined walls and debris to see.

Zhao Ming and Ji Cheng looked at each other before turning to the palace, the palace which was built in the center of Ji city and was known for its lavish and grandeur architecture, was nothing but a ruined-palace now.

Seeing the place, no one can say that it was once a palace, which served as the symbol of the power of the Ji Dynasty. The palace that was desired by many kings and sovereigns to live in this palace for a day, was ruined to the point that it cannot be even recognized.
