Capítulo 5: In memory of him
"It's been so long..." - Liang Si Yao sighed, looking into the mirror that showed a beautiful, dream-like girl.
She didn't use makeup, because even without it, her face was perfect. Nevertheless, her flawless face radiated only a coldness that made her feel uncomfortable.
A young girl dressed in a white dress tended to Liang Si Yao's hair. The more she looked at her face in the mirror, the more distracted she became.
"God... You are so beautiful. You're almost like a fairy from heaven. No wonder so many men are in love with you!"
Liang Si Yao didn't say anything back to the girl's words. She didn't even seem to hear what she was saying.
Decorating her hair with a red hairpin the girl couldn't help herself and spoke again:
"Why don't you let your hair grow? With your incredible beauty, you would look even better with long hair."
Regret flashed in Liang Si Yao's cold eyes and she whispered:
"A long time ago, I was in love with a man, but he did not reciprocate my feelings and even hid from me, only a few years later I found out that he was dead. I do not grow my hair in memory of that man."
"Huh? "The girl was stunned by the revelation.
Liang Si Yao was only sixteen years old and had never left Shentou City ever since she was born, so who was she talking about and when did this happen?
She really wanted to ask that, but she knew she shouldn't. Trying to dispel the gloomy atmosphere in the room she spoke again:
"Heh, your husband-to-be must be anxious to get the wedding ceremony over with as soon as possible, considering how much he loves you and is afraid of losing you."
"My husband-to-be…" - A small wave of bitterness flashed in Liang Si Yao's eyes. - "I don't know anything about him, neither his name nor his appearance. After the wedding, I won't let him lay a finger on me." - She said in a firm tone.
The girl suddenly laughed, Liang Si Yao's words did not surprise her at all, on the contrary, if she had been ready to accept him with open hands she would have been stunned.
"I know that you have little interest in him, but your future husband's name is Chen Ge, he is the most handsome man I have ever seen and he is the heir of the Chen clan."
Suddenly she felt Liang Si Yao shudder.
In the eyes of the girl Liang Si Yao was quiet and calm as the moon, it seemed nothing could disturb her, that's why such an intense reaction frightened the girl.
"What happened young lady?" - Hurriedly she asked.
"..." - Liang Si Yao's breathing was a little rapid, only after a few dozen breaths did she regain her composure. She shook her head slightly before answering:
"Nothing... I just remembered someone, someone who died a long time ago."
"Someone dead?" - Exclaimed the young girl, she was quite surprised.
Knock! Knock! Knock!
A sudden sound at the door interrupted their conversation.
*****
"Come in!"
Hearing the cold voice, Chen Ge suddenly flinched and his memory flashed back to the incredibly beautiful but cold countenance of the girl.
She was one of those who pursued him in every way, seeking mutual love.
'It's just a similar voice, it can't be her…' - Chen Ge thought. She was in the third heaven and it was absolutely impossible for him to meet her here.
Taking a few deep breaths he entered the room.
It was festively decorated, but that's not what caught his attention, his attention was drawn to the two women in the room.
Although the young girl dressed in a white dress looked quite beautiful, from just one look Chen Ge realized that she was just a maid.
But when he saw the second woman, Chen Ge froze and swallowed all the words he wanted to say.
In the center of the room sat a young woman, her head adorned with a Phoenix crown, and a veil of beads hung from the crown in front, making it impossible to clearly see her face. Only her cold, seemingly emotionless eyes were visible. Although her face was hidden, Chen Ge sensed that she was extremely beautiful.
'Is she my fiancée?' - Chen Ge thought.
While thoroughly digging through the memories of the body owner's past, he didn't find anything about Liang Si Yao, which was very strange.
All Chen Ge remembered was just a glimpse of her figure, but that wasn't enough to fall in love with her, at least to such an extent.
Chen Ge felt a little sorry for the previous host, because in all the time he had been chasing her, he had never once seen her or even been able to make out her face.
Now, he saw that the girl he was supposed to marry had a devilish beauty but even that wasn't enough for Chen Ge to change his mind about breaking up the marriage.
But while he was thinking about it, he didn't notice Liang Si Yao shudder when she saw him.
Suddenly, she crashed straight into Chen Ge.
"Chen Ge…"
Hugging him so tightly, as tightly as if she wanted to squeeze him into mush, Liang Si Yao cried and screamed:
"You... Idiot... Why did you hide from me... They told me you were dead…"
