Empress Of The Lost Kingdom Chapter 171

He waited.
He patiently waited for long seven years for Li Juan to regain her memories.
As he promised to Li Qin, Lee Tae Yang never forced Li Juan to remember the time they spent together and accept him as her boyfriend.
When Li Juan got enrolled in Jing university and shifted to Jing city, he came with congratulatory gift and left it with Li Qin.
A chain with sun shaped pendent, like a reminder for Li Juan...to remind her own "Sun" who always watched and protected her from distance.
Whether it's her birthday or exam days or graduation day, on every important day in Li Juan's life for the last seven years, he was there for her, like a guardian angel,
Li Qin used to believed that, whatever relationship which bloomed between to young kids would not survive the tough realities of adulthood, especially someone like Lee Tae Yang who hailed from a wealthy family.
No matter, how free-spirited someone is there will be a period where every youngster is forced to settle down. She thought Lee Tae Yang will give up on Li Juan, but his stubbornness and preservence has made Li Qin regret her decision.
She prohibited Lee Tae Yang from meeting her daughter, yet he never stopped looking after Li Juan.
Once Li Juan finishes her studies, Li Qin was planning to tell the truth to her daughter and giving her permission for their marriage. But before that fate has took Li Qin's life on the surgical table, leaving Li Juan in ignorance, in loneliness.
The moment Lee Tae Yang landed in Jing city's airport, cancelling his foreign trip, he was bombarded with Hao Ren's phone calls and messages.
Li Juan tried to end her life, again.
Her mother's death was hard for her to accept.
If Li Juan's professor was a bit late to arrive, she would've bled to death.
With Hao Ren's influence in city hospital, he helped Lee Tae Yang to stay beside Li Juan in the ICU.
While lying unconscious, Li Juan had that nightmare and broke down before him, once again.
It was excruciating for him to see her hounded by that nightmare, even after five years.
The nightmare where Li Juan witnessed the death of a Queen.
The neurologist in Lee Tae Yang, forced himself to believe that Li Juan's mental state has been altered by her brain injury and trauma. However, his heart said the opposite.
He was not a person who believed in reincarnation and past life, but unable to see her going through such an ordeal, he went and met few monks and showed Li Juan's birth chart.
What ever Li Qin and his grandma said was true, she was cursed,
It was a blood curse.
One of her ancestors made a soul sacrifice and swore a blood promise with the heavens. Her soul was trapped somewhere and as the descendant, only Li Juan could bring redemption to the woman who was appearing in her dreams.

While Li Juan went back to her normal life, Lee Tae Yang tried to look for the root cause of this curse.
He went searching for Bai Ze's family and came to know about the alliance between Guan family and Bai family from his uncle, Guan Tian Long's father.
He believed that his parents and Bai Ze were classmates, but there was another link which connected them with each other,
Just like his mother who was a descendant of a royal family which holds hundreds of year's pedigree, Bai Ze belonged to a royal family.
As Lee Tae Yang learned more about Yu clan and their kingdom which was erased from the history, he was left mind blown.
Li Juan, who lived with her mother in poverty, who became orphan after her parents death, actually belonged to a big royal family who still practiced matriarchy,
She was heir apparent to the Jade throne of Yu palace, the young miss of Bai family.
The direct descendant of the Queen whom she saw in her dreams,
He was so excited to share the truth with Li Juan and that's when Lee Tae Min came to C country and joined as research intern in professor Han Guang's team.
When he came to know from Lee Tae Min that his beloved Juan Noona's research was based on a queen and her lost kingdom, he was left fascinated by Li Juan's decision.
She was the model student in their department, the rank holder. While everyone tried to recruit her to participate in high end projects, Li Juan was actually searching about her own roots, through her dreams and hallucinations.
Bewildered by her, Lee Tae Yang was the one who took the root map which was kept as treasure in Guan family's ancestral home and gave it to the head monk of the monastery in Tu valley.
It was Li Juan's dream, her life's goal and he wished to help her fulfilling it.
That was when the head monk, explained Lee Tae Yang about the fate they wrote for a woman, who will search about the Yu kingdom and bring back their Queen home.
"The girl who born on the peak of the full moon night will be manifested with the Yin energy at its epitome,"
Cold but nurturing,
Passive but refuses to be dominated,
Dark, but not evil,
She had the worst fate, one could possess,
A troubled childhood, loss of her parents, shadowed by death,
The Yin energy surging on her will bewitch every single man who comes closer to her,
It is fated that she will be surrounded by men until she finds out the right person to compliment her Yin with his Yang,
There was only one man in the entire world who could compliment Li Juan's Yin...it was Lee Tae Yang.
But Tang Wei Sheng's entry into Li Juan's life, overthrown all of his hard work.

On the very first day, Lee Tae Min met Tang Wei Sheng, he came home and warned his brother about Li Juan's high school crush.
He searched about Tang Wei Sheng and found more about Li Juan's traumatic past in high school,
After knowing everything, Lee Tae Yang couldn't help but notice the nearly death accidents which Li Juan experienced. Somehow every single tragedy happened with her related to Tang Wei Sheng.
Tang Wei Sheng was the one who actually brought adversities into Li Juan's life.
Every moment she spent with Tang Wei Sheng put Li Juan's life in danger,
When Lee Tae Yang realized the truth Li Juan has already left to Tu valley with Tang Wei Sheng.
He ordered Lee Tae Min to track down Li Juan's location and went to Tu valley.
As he calculated, Li Juan was attacked again.
To know the real master mind behind the attacks, he took a risky decision to shoot Li Juan and fake her death.
Lee Tae Yang hid Li Juan in his farm house in east sea island and waited for the master mind to come out, revealing his purpose.
But for someone reason's he was grateful for the people who attacked Li Juan. Thanks to them, he got an opportunity to spend time with Li Juan.
Though he saw her growth in these seven years, he never tried to get closer and the seven days spent with her in east sea islands, replaced the time he spent away from her.
Although Tang Wei Sheng's engagement broke Li Juan's heart, it made Lee Tae Yang closer to her.
While spending time with her , Lee Tae Yang realized that somewhere in Li Juan's memory, he still had a place. It was just she failed to recognize him as the man in her vague memory.
Rather than recognizing him as Lee Tae Yang, Li Juan found solace in the company of Liang, who was her best friend.
He was delighted to become Li Juan's friend,
He never stepped out of his boundaries and made an effort to get closer, yet Li Juan opened up herself to him...
He was treated like a savior by eighteen year old Li Juan, but the twenty five year old Li Juan treated him like a true companion.
He admired the woman who she grow up into, despite the adversities in her life.
He respected her for the life choices she has made,
He found himself falling for her once again,
He made sure to stay with her and witness how she overcame every struggle, willing to help her.
Without anyone else help, she found her family and her happiness.
Just like as he promised Li Juan on countless nights when she woke crying about her Queen, Lee Tae Yang went with her to fulfill her dream of finding the Queen and Yu kingdom.
The day, Li Juan found the remainings of Bai Ling Yue, Lee Tae Yang realized the amount of faith she had for him...he has become an important person to her.
That night, he was going to tell the truth and confess his love to her, but fate played a cruel game with them again.
Her memory was wiped clean once again.
When Li Juan become closer to Tang Wei Sheng after her accident, for the first time Lee Tae Yang feared that he will lose her forever.
But luck was on his side, he was chose to become the suitor for the young miss of Bai family by grandpa Guan.
This time, he decided to fight for her and he won.
-----------------------
Li Juan stood in front of the large building of Lee corporations head office in Jing city.
Since the office hours are already over, she was bit hesitant to go inside.
Li Juan took her mobile and dialed Lee Tae Min. After two rings, he took the call.
"Did you meet him, Noona?"
"No, do you think this is a good idea?"
"You are going to ask for a key from him, nothing else. I have already informed him about you, no need to worry," Lee Tae Min assured her.
"Okay," Li Juan took a deep breath and went inside of the building.
"Good evening, how can I help you?" The receptionist asked her.
"I need to meet Mr Lee Tae Yang,"
"Do you have an appointment miss?"
"No, can you inform him that Li Juan-Bai Yue Ling is here to meet him?" Li Juan corrected herself and introduced her.
The receptionist looked at her in contempt,
Li Juan was wearing a run down hoodie and blue jeans with sneakers. Apart from her normal self, she wore a pair of big spectacles and even had a travel bag with her.
She doesn't look like a person who has an appointment with the CEO.
"Please wait, Miss, let me check with Secretary wan,"
She dialled the number of CEO's secretary's desk.
"Secretary wan, oh, there is someone with an appointment to meet Mr CEO. Okay, I will convey it. Thank you," The receptionist ended the conversation and glanced at Li Juan,
"Right now, the CEO is at an important meeting. Can you wait for a while?"
"Okay. Thank you," Li Juan walked towards the lounge and took a seat to settle down.
It was in the morning that Lee Tae Min called her and informed about his brother's 30th birthday.
After her visit to K country with Lee Tae Yang, she made her decision to accept him and start a life together.

It is very difficult to show this work, but if I do not, I fear I will never improve and learn. So here it is. To anyone who lends the time to read all of this and any of my chapters. Thank you.

Deviant's Masquerade: The Huntsman's Quest (An Urban Magic Quest/RPG)
Jon Whitaker went to summer camp expecting a nice relaxing time as a newly minted counselor in training. He was not expecting to fight an army of monsters, work with a serial killer, enter a one-sided friendship with an eldritch horror, or study under a competing witch and dark lord. But regardless of what he was expecting, his summer is over and he's made his way back home where he can try and return to a normal -for him- life. Too bad life rarely goes as expected. --- Please Note: This is forum quest/RPG I run in the same city/setting as my other stories Hacking Reality and Get Ink'd, meaning that while a majority of the plot is made up by me, the major choices as well as what each chapter is about are usually made by the actual readers in forum votes. Additionally, given how this is essentially a story version of a Tabletop game there is also a background RPG system that while the characters aren't necessarily aware of, the readers can see these stats to know how each chosen 'Action' effects their character's development.
