Chapter 96 - Re-written Fate (2) (2/2)

His face froze as if to digest it for a second. His heart was erratic and his breathing was uneven. He looked at Yi Ling and saw her blushing as well.

"I said that?" he wanted to confirm.

"Yes, you were adamant about it. No matter how I refused, you wouldn't agree. You said you will wait no matter how long. That you will certainly make me agree to it." Yi Ling recalled their conversation.

At that time, she was actually about to say yes. Just that someone visited the King when they were eating together.

"Do you still trust me?" Yi Ling asked again. She knew it was hard for someone without memories to just believe what she just said.

But for some reason, King Jin nodded. In his heart, he believed her.

"I keep my promises. If I did made that promise, Then I will wait no matter how long for you to become my woman." King Jin kissed Yi Ling lips.

That was his request. For Yi Ling, to become his. No matter what happens, he was willing to trust this woman. Though he lost his memories, his judgement never fails him. He could tell that she was telling the truth.

"Then promise me that as soon as you are finish here, you will come and visit me in Jin Kingdom. I will wait for you Ling'er." He caressed her soft cheeks. He knew he was already fond of her. Was it love at first sight?

"En. I promise to go to Jin Kingdom to see you. Wait for me." Yi Ling held his hand.

If they really weren't meant to be together, Then she'll treasure this small moments she had with him.

King Jin kissed her hand and her forehead. "Until then my Ling'er... Yu Ran, let's go." King Jin let her hand go and left.

Another tear fell down on Yi Ling's face. It'll be a while before she will be able to see him again. For now, She has to unlock all of her Seals. Her priority changed again. Her heart was no longer hers.

Seeing everyone left, Mei Ling spoke again.

"Since you choose the harder path, then I will tell you a little secret. You're mother is in one of the High Kingdoms. That's all I could tell you."

"Thanks, that's already good enough for me."

"Since the calamity has been taken care of, I will need to go. Take care of Mu Xin and Minzhe for me. I will meet you again when you break your Fourth seal." Mei Ling voice faded on her head.

Yi Ling sighed. She went back inside the sect and went to her chamber. He walked towards the table and grabbed the ring.

Mu Xin who was waiting inside, got excited. She's back! Thank god she's alright! He thought.

Yi Ling gulped, she could sense Linyu's anger and Tefei's amusement. But most of all, Mu Xin glaring at her. Thank God she wasn't connected to Minzhe's emotion, or all hell broke lose. He was angrier than anyone else.
