《Yours, Ours, Us》Her Past (1)

Advertisement

When it was time to set off, the prince finally left Madame, and I found my chance to go talk to him. Of course, I won't be talking to him in person. I would probably be destroying my own reputation by doing that. So I used talked to him with my spiritual powers.

"Your Highness, is it alright if I fly or jump on clouds to follow you guys, instead?"

"Why?"

"The carriage is not comfortable at all. I feel like I will get a headache from at the banging my head has to do in this carriage."

"I'll let them change your carriage for you."

"No, no need! Don't worry, I'm smart. I won't get myself in any trouble, so please?"

"No."

Fine, then, let me use a trick. "Your Highness, if you let me fly, I'll go invisible and let the only person to see me be you with me sitting on your lap. If you let me jump on clouds, I promise I'll do whatever you ask of me."

Damn, this girl! With these choices how could I resist? But she has given me an idea, Prince Wu thought with a sinister smile. "I give you permission to do both."

"Really!"

"The first is flying. Hurry up."

"Okay!" Although I feel uncomfortable that I have to sit on his lap halfway through the ride, it doesn't really matter because I can finally go and see the scene. Not only that, I can get out of this horrible carriage.

"Aunt Qi, Hao'er, I'm leaving to His Highness, I'll see you guys later!"

Feeling ecstatic, I flew right away to the prince. And I kept my promise to him. I became invisible wile letting him be the only person who can see me. And I sat on his lap.

"Took you long enough."

"I didn't want Aunt Qi or Hao'er to worry about me, so I had to them first."

"You look pretty with a smile."

"Eh?" *Blush* Your Highness, please stop trying to get any closer to me or I'll die. Literally, I'm not lying.

"Haha... You said I can ask you to do anything for me if I let you jump on clouds."

"Yeah?"

"I never knew you could jump on clouds."

"Lu Ming taught me how to jump on clouds to travel. Once someone surpasses the rank as an advance-Godly, they become a god and is an immortal."

"So, he is an immortal?"

"Yep. He said immortals traveled by leaping on clouds. I was so fascinated by it that I begged him to teach me. You know, he once said that my fascination and curiosity is what would kill me."

"That's horrible."

"But what he said is true. Say, do you want to know about my forbidden past?"

"I do, but I don't want to force you to tell me."

"Your Highness, I'm not sure if I'm making the right choice or not, but I want to tell you about my past right now. I want to tell you as a warning. During the past few days that you have been visiting my court, I somehow came to start to feel something for you."

I guess I did make progress in making her mine, but what does she mean by warning?

"When you came over everyday to bring me my meals, stayed with me and talked to me, when you protected me from the jealousy of the other women. I felt like I was falling for that kindness. Seeing you be kind to me is not something I would have ever thought of. 10 years ago, I made a vow to never fall in love again. Yet, here I am falling for you. Even with me saying that you may think I am a fake person after saying this, do you still want to hear the story of my past?"

"Yes."

"It all started when I was 6 years old... My family chose to throw me away because of my scars on my body. My mother thought that it would heal overtime, that if I got the care I needed it would heal, but as I grew up, the scars never disappeared, but became more visible. I had all types of scars on my body. Burns, cuts, scrapes, bruises, and then... My face. My mom was a beauty renowned in the entire country, yet her child was ugly. Yes, my face was ugly. The face you see now is but a mask that Lu Ming had created for me."

"What hurts most was the fact that my family had thrown me away for my appearance. I was still a talent though. I was talented. When I was born, my spiritual powers surpassed that of the highest rank. But now, my powers are nothing. My family threw inside of a forest. Can you guess what the name was?"

"What was it?"

"It was called 'The No Return Forest'. Do you know why it was call 'The No Return Forest'?"

Just from the name itself, I can already tell why it was called that.

"When I was thrown into the forest, I had thought, I don't care if nobody wants me, I know that mother loves me. I took that illusion and made every effort to escape from the forest. After returning back to the Min House, I looked for my mother. When I found her, she told me she didn't want me. She told me I was trash. So I made every effort again to get her to accept me. I showed her all me talents from musical to fighting, everything, but all she saw in me was a money maker."

"Don't tell me she made you into a-"

"No, she sold me to the Demon King. I was sold at a high price. I think he was expecting to see a very beautiful woman with talents that could satisfy him, but when he saw me, he was pissed off and beat me up. For 2 years, any small little mistake I made, he would torture me for it. I curse the gods at that. What had I done so wrongly that I was to be punished like this. And then, my stress build up was so much that my emotions got so out of control, I became a demon myself. My scars disappeared and showed my true face."

"Ling'er..."

"I had beauty unrivaled of. When everyone saw my beauty, they all fought for it, but the one who won it, was the Demon King. For 5 years, he constantly chased me and when I finally gave in, I was nothing but a tool for him. I was his weapon and shield. My immortality gave him his shield and my powers gave him his weapon. My beauty was used for seducing men and women. Did you know, I did everything I could to run away, but I couldn't?"

"Why?"

"Because he had cast a curse on me. A curse that if I left him, I would die, but I didn't to die, yet. Back then, I was always thinking that my mother had loved and gave me to the Demon King because she wanted me to have a better future. After all, that's what she told me.
