A small girl stood in the garden, plucking the sunflowers ruthlessly as she gazed at the gate impatiently. Where was he? He said he would be here! She stomped her feet in a tantrum.
"Lan'er, what is it? Why aren't you coming to play?" A small boy came behind her, dressed in a designer suit worth a small fortune not a thread out of place. He stared at the flowers on the ground solemnly, his little face set in stone.
"Nothing, Lin-ge, just go back. I am waiting for someone." She sighed, her little fingers playing with the edge of her dress as she looked at the ground, feeling sad.
Honglin's face scrunched in confusion. "Who?"
Chunlan was about to ignore him when she heard a sound at the gate, the stone landed on the ground with a thud. She became excited. "He's here."
She ran to the gate and jumped up to unlock the gate. She smiled. "You are here."
The cute little boy gazed at the girl with amazement. She was like sunshine in his dark world. As young as he was, he understood a lot of things happening around him. And he always wanted to live in a house just like this before him.
She grasped his hand and tugged."Come in."
They walked to the middle of the garden, where a group of children were playing ball. Two girls tried to team up against one boy as they tried to cheat.
"Hello, everyone. I have a new friend here who wants to play." Her soft tiny voice called out.
They stopped playing, looking at the boy dressed in clean but worn out clothes. A girl dressed in a red dress and a red bow tied around her hair looked at him in disdain and muttered. "Oh, She found a beggar!"
"Mengqi!" Su Menxiang chastised. She tilted her head in curiosity. "Lan'er, who is this?"
"This is my new friend, Jihai." She looked at her friends with determination and threat in her eyes. If they refused to play with him, she won't play with them either!
Honglin who watched quietly recognized what that look meant and sighed in defeat. He walked forward and stretched his little hand in greeting. "Hello Jihai, I am Wen Honglin. Welcome to the family."
************************************
Chunlan saw her world shift as she found herself in another garden. She walked around trying to recognize where she was. She finally saw a feminine figure sitting at a table in the middle of the garden pouring tea.
"Oh, you are here. Come sit."
Chunlan walked with caution to the table, shocked at the woman's beauty. She wasn't sure there was any woman who could compete with this one in front of her. "Who are you?"
Gesturing her to sit, the woman pushed a cup to her. "I am Tamara, the goddess of Transmigration. I want to talk to you."
Chunlan was shocked. "Transmigration?"
Tamara chuckled at the sight before her. "Surely you didn't think what was happening to you isn't a universal phenomenon?"
"I guess so." Chunlan finally sat down.
"Well, here is the thing. My father gave me and my brother Talros, the god of Reincarnation an assignment in order to make us grow a "conscience". She rolled her eyes at the word. "Whoever wins this assignment gets a reward which I cannot tell you."
"So what was the assignment?"
Chunlan asked.
"Make a story of happy ever after."
Chunlan felt her blood freeze. So she was just an experiment? Her whole life was whisked into another world and it was just an ASSIGNMENT?!
Unknown to the reactions on Chunlan's face, Tamara continued. "So I picked you and started your story which my father wrote thinking I was on the right track, right? Unfortunately, you messed things up in your former life! Completely messed things up! You were a failure!" Her beautiful face were in dismay.
Happy that this woman wasn't happy, Chunlan asked. "So that means you lost, right?!"
Tamara's eyes flamed up, before they became drowned in guilt. "Never! I have never lost to anyone, especially Talros. So I cheated, by using his powers without his knowledge to give you a second chance."
"What?"
Tamara narrowed her eyes. "Are you complaining? You have a second chance to start all over with Jihai! This time, make things right!"
Chunlan became quiet."Alright."
Tamara's lips tugged into a smile. "Good. Oh! I forgot, you must remember, some things won't change even though you try to change it and some things would change as you change them, maybe good or bad so be prepared, alright? Well, time for you to go. Good luck!"
Chunlan suddenly felt something click and asked. "Wait, if your brother picked this same story, that means....."
"-yes, someone near you is reincarnated. Someone near you knows about this story, other than you." Tamara explained.
"What?!"
"Bye!"
With a faint headache, Tang Chunlan woke up.
Tang Chunlan woke up with a gasp, her body covered with cold fear. If she hadn't transferred into another world or reincarnated, she wouldn't have thought this dream was real.But it was. As she placed her hand on the bed, she could feel that the sheets were damp. It would be a hassle to call a maid in the middle of the night so she took a bath, changed her clothes and the bedsheets. But unfortunately, she couldn't sleep and began to ponder on the situation.If what that woman said....what is her name?? Tamara, she remembered. If what Tamara said is true, then she must not make the same mistake again.Slowly but gradually, she formed a plan and fell asleep again."Miss! Miss! Please wake up!" An exasperated voice woke her. Opening her eyes, which was partly blinded by the rays of the sun coming through the room, she saw the outline of a femal
After the graduation ceremony that took place in the school, the elites decided to take the party back to the house. Waiters passed every guests, serving them while the parents and the two celebrants stood at the entrance welcoming the guests.Chunlan climbed on the stairs gracefully and turned to address them by hitting her glass with a spoon lightly.Having their attention, she cleared her throat lightly and said "Ladies and Gentlemen, thank you for coming to celebrate this auspicious occasion with us. The Tang family has always produced talents and scholars since ancient times. This has proved no different with the number of accolades my sisters have won during this graduation." She lifted her glass and smiled. "A toast to them, Tang Chunhua and Chunying!"The guests lifted their glass and murmured words of agreement and congratulations to the twins who stood bashfully.Chunhua stared at her e
Chunying followed her boyfriend, Zheng Wei shyly into the hotel room her heart beating loudly in her chest. Her nervous expression changed to astonishment."This-"Roses covered her feet from the door to the spacious bed with red curtains , the candles in the room giving it a romantic glow. The room designs were exquisite, fit for a queen. It was truly a grand gesture of love."Do you like it?" Zheng Wei gazed at the girl beside him.Chunying smiled shyly, her heart moved by the sight before her. All her life, she had always felt neglected and unwanted. When he had first approached her, she was scared and frightened. But with his constant love and patience, she knew what love truly meant. She now had no doubts."I like it."His eyes filled with pleasure. "Good."She lowered her head, smiling. Her long black hair and pale white skin gave her an innocent aura, a
Zheng Wei felt a cold chill down his back as he gazed at the figure by the door. She was vengeance and death itself as she seemed to be holding a........ stick?"Ha, ha!" He got up the bed and mocked her. "Its seem like we have company! The more, the merrier!"As he said this, the men rushed towards Chunlan intending to grab her."Sis...Sister!" Chunying wailed pitifully.Chunlan smirked. In her past life, she learned how to fight due to some pitiful circumstances. Gripping her iron rod tightly, her eyes narrowed. "Zheng Wei, you are dead!"When they tried to touch her, she maneuvered her body and swung her rod to one of them. But she barely managed to avoid a fist coming at her face. Angry, this time she hit the man's jewels making him yelp in pain. Running to the table, she grabbed the wine bottle and smashed it on her attacker's head.But she felt her head buzz in pain. Turning,
A scene from Tang Chunlan's first life....Tang Chunlan had just arrived home, her bodyguards and her personality assistant wearing gloomy expressions. They knew that Madame had just had a fight with Young Master again. Not that it was their business. But they were always the victims of the aftermath."Has my things arrived in my room?" Tang Chunlan's chilly voice echoed in the hall as she walked."Yes, ma'am.""You may go."As Chunlan walked, she sneered in her heart. Indeed, men could not be trusted. Didn't Bai Jihai promise her that she would never have to come back to this house? She was angry that he brought Shen Mengqi to the company to work after she had personally destroyed her family business!Was he trying to make me look like the bad guy? Then fine, I am the bad guy! Besides, didn't the male lead always eventually stand by the female lead in every story? Why was hers diff
Tang Chunlan felt her head throb due to the loud party music and this, staggered a little."Do you want to rest?" Bai Jihai steadied her.She looked at the handsome man in a black suit who had pushed her from the house to the Graduation hall and to the party in a wheelchair and suddenly felt a cold chill down her back. "No need." She shook her head vigorously.Bai Jihai looked at the girl in his arms. She was in a black long gown which showed her milky white shoulders but covered her arms. She had curled her hair and pinned it up in a loose bun accompanied with golden hairpins but left some curls down near her temples making her look stunning. "Does it still hurt?" He stroked her arm cast."A little." She inwardly winced at the pain on her right shoulder and gave a weak smile.She knew he was still a little angry at her recklessness, though he tried to conceal it.
She stepped in before Mengqi could reply. "This place is so hot and loud. Should we take this party somewhere else?"She turned to Honglin. "Why don't we go to your nightclub, Dark Raven?""No way." Jihai glared at her."Bu-""No buts. Nightclubs are crowdy and more noisy. You are just recovering, don't stress yourself." He cut her off coldly.Chunlan was speechless.You stubborn man! Can't you see I am trying to protect you?The doctors had advised her to rest but she has discarded their advice when she looked at the calendar a week ago.If I could change his fate today, she thought wistfully....She grabbed his sleeves with a tinge of desperation in her eyes. "Please."His raging eyes softened at her plea."We are departing at 10 pm.""Okay."10pm
Wen Honglin was speechless.Shen Mengqi who watched everything from a corner suddenly laughed nervously and said "Chunlan, why don't you let Jihai speak for himself? I am sure he didn't mean to misunderstand Lin-ge's intentions. Jihai, Lin-ge was always heartbroken when he saw you walking and toiling under the sun. We have been friends since childhood, is there any need to be this courteous?"Menxiang, who was hoping to restore the harmonious atmosphere agreed with her. "Yes, Brother Bai. No need to be courteous, just accept the gift."Chunlan glared at Honglin who seemed to have put a distressed yet quiet expression. "Forgive me, Lin-ge. We are happy with the gifts. Thank you."Honglin, don't blame me for this....."No need. Its just a gift of well wishes." His aura turned magnanimous.A gift of well wishes?! Honglin, this gift of well wishes put your friend,
