I Finally Found Him...

The days passed by in boredom for Zhao Ling. Although she had to deal with daily house affairs, they were unimportant to her. While thinking about about how boring the days were, she remembered how the prince had promised that whenever she wanted to go out, she just needed to tell him.

While having that thought in her head, she decided to pay the prince a visit after finishing with all the documents. The prince hasn't been visiting her because he knew how busy she was.

Before she could leave her though, she had some unwelcomed visitors.

"Haha! I never knew that she didn't even have someone to announce you visitors. Is she that poor? And she is 'favored'."

"Sister, don't speak such harsh words. Remember that we came here for something."

It was the 2 other concubines that had previously came with me. We never interacted and even if we did, it was merely a greeting. "I apologize, but this one is sure she has more riches than you do. Also, whatever you are asking of me, I can't you with. Do you think the prince is so dumb to know about your plans? I'd rather save myself than help you and get myself killed at the same time."

"You!"

"What? If you want to fight me go ahead." The first concubine, the short one, came and tried to slap me, but failed to do so. Instead, she got thrown against the wall with a force. The force wasn't strong enough to do her heavy harm, but it was enough to push her back.

"Yo-you! Just wait! I'll definitely tell the Madam about you having a tryst."

"I see. Then I will wait for my punishment. Perhaps I can finally have an excuse to leave this damn mansion. Sigh... It's so boring here. I'm not suited for the harem, I'm much better for the wild wind."

"Sister, let's leave." The second concubine, the tall one, calmed the other one and they left.

"Hao'er, make sure that whatever happens in this room, whether present or future, never gets out to the world. Including the people of this mansion."

"Why? The prince loves you and Madam seems to favor you."

"Some things are much better off kept secret. I'll head to the prince now."

"Okay." Hao'er had on a confused face for not understanding her mistress, but there are some things she can't say when she knows nothing at all. Also, it'd be much better for her to focus on her training that the mistress had given her. She wants to be useful to her mistress after all.

Somehow, it seems that every time I visit the prince, he is always with Shu Xienghao. Not I care, I'll just hurry up with my request and leave. "Your Highness, this concubine has a request. It won't take that much time. I'll leave immediately after I have gotten your answer."

"Go ahead."

"The outing you promised me. Can we go on it soon?"

"Of course. I'll make preparations for it. We'll leave in 3 days."

"Thank you. I'll take my leave now."

I tried teleporting back to my room, but somehow, I got teleported to the prince's room instead. If there was anybody shameless enough to lock me up in their room, it would be the prince. Seems like I just have to wait.

I waited for a while and then thought, it's getting late, I should leave, but when I was trying to leave, there was a wall blocking me from leaving. Did the prince really have to use a magic wall just to make sure I'm imprisoned in here? Sigh, seems like I really have no chance. It's not like I'm going to die. It wouldn't hurt to stay in here anyways.

"Were you waiting for a long time?" After waiting for what seems like 2-3 hours, the prince finally came.

"What do you think? Why don't try locking up yourself in a room?"

"Haha... I'm sorry. It's just... I haven't gotten to see your face for so long. I missed you so much. Did you not miss me?"

"No. Also, we were only apart from each for a week."

"A week is equal to 7 years apart for me."

"Are you copying the heavens?"

"Yes."

"Sigh... Your Highness, let go of me."

"Mother and I we are going to get rid of all the women in the harem except you."

"Huh? Why?"

"I love you and Mother agrees with me that you are perfect."

Honestly, I was a bit shocked to hear that, but I don't think I planned to stay here forever. Their ideas were too overboard, but I don't want to destroy their bubbles, so I should just keep quiet. "What about your reputation? In this time, many men already have at least 4 wives."

"I don't need four wives. I just need you." He embraced me and then carried me to the bed. He also seemed a bit weird today. What was wrong with him? Of course I agree that he is a bit romantic sometimes, but he never really took things to the next level. It was always just a kiss or a hug. It was never a thing such as making out like he is doing to me right now.

Wait! Why am I so calm about this too? Come one, you are not suppose to fall for him. However, no matter how much I debated in my head, my body was reacting to his every touch.

His touch was hot and it heated up my body. His kisses heated up my body. His hands that were tracing my outlines, was making me feel hot. I haven't felt this way before. Nobody has made me feel this way before. Before I could even think, the prince had already stripped me of my clothing.

"Your Highness, ple-please wait."

"Your snow white body is flushing a red cherry. You are so beautiful and cute right now."

"Your Highness, this is embarrassing. Can you turn off the light at least?" Wait why am I saying this? I should be saying to stop. What is wrong with me today?

"I am going to be seeing you again. No need. Get used to it."

With that, we spent this night making love to each other.

When I woke up, I felt a pain from my hips. I've never felt this pain before. It was all his fault! The man who had caused me this pain had also disappeared. Where did he go? Sigh, first of all, does this beast not have an idea of holding back? We did so many rounds... Wait, what am I thinking about?

I slapped my cheeks trying to destroy that thought on my head. I started to berate myself by mumbling out loud saying things like, "Zhao Ling, how can you do this? You stupid girl. How can you fall for someone so easily? How can you give you body so easily? You stupid stupid girl. What if things didn't go right in the future?"

"Things will go right in the future."

"Huh?"

"You'll give me plenty of kids and I will supply you with loads of happiness."

I didn't know what to say, but my face was blushing ferociously from his words. Kids? I've never thought about kids before. Wait, if I get pregnant here, doesn't that mean I'm stuck here?

"Don't give me such a sad face. Do you not want to give me a child?"

"No, I am angry at you. Have you never heard of the word holding back before?"

I a teasing voice he said, "Whatever do you mean, my wife?"

"Yo-! Ugh... Who cares. I'm going back to my room."

"Not yet."

"What more do you need?"

"I want to have another taste."

"Another taste my ass! I'll punch you out of bed if you dare!"

"Fine, fine... I'm sorry. Ling'er move to Chrysanthemum Residence."

"Why?"

"You are going to be the main wife. Chrysanthemum Residence is close to my Ponder Residence. I can see you more and besides it will be a gift to you."

"No need. I want to stay in my Winter Court."

"Well, whether you want to move or not is not your decision because I've already moved everything to Chrysanthemum Residence."

"What!!!!!!??????? How could you?! And without my permission??!!"

"Alright, stop screaming now. It's bad for your health to get angry so much. Well, your face looks cute angry anyways."

"Hmph! Cancel that outing. I don't want to go out anymore."

"Eh? Why not?"

"Why not!? Sigh... I'm not even going to explain..." This stupid man left me disabled, how am I going to continue daily affairs? This stupid idiot!

Who cares about going out with people anyways. I can go on my own. I should go to a snow mountain and calm my nerves down before I kill someone. Sigh... Even if I can't walk, I can still fly. Thank god I can fly. I'll just teleport out and leave the mansion. I'll leave a letter for Hao'er to read so that she doesn't freak out.

I ignored the prince and left on my own to a mountain anywhere. I had teleported, but I couldn't stand still and lost my balance back in my room. I wrote a letter telling Hao'er where I had gone off too. Then, I flew off without anybody knowing.

After flying in the sky for about an hour or so, I found a perfect cave up in the snow mountains. This place is isolated and not only that, the view is quite pretty. Beautiful white snow stacked on top of another layer of white snow. It was pure snow that has never been stepped on. It was quite a calming sensation.

When I went inside of the cave, I was surprised to see that it was so beautiful in its own way. Not only that, it was spacious and filled with many rare things. There was also a hidden cave door. It could be considered well hidden in human eyes, but with godly eyes, you could sense the power coming from the door.

I was curious about what was behind the door, so I used my powers to try to destroy the door. However, no matter how much I tried, it wouldn't break. Then I wondered, perhaps it had some mechanism to it. While thinking about how to unlock it, I also wondered when there was such a door. My human self had read the book, so going back on the info of that book, everything was wrong. Perhaps it was because of my entrance to this world.

After thinking for a while, I decided to play my flute to scour the area and to see if the magic of the flute would open it. Everything seemed to be boring for me these days, so something that striked my curiosity definitely was something satisfying. After playing the flute for a while, it seemed that it also didn't work. Still being unable to open the door, I decided to sing a song. My voice was magical. It was not only beautiful, but it had special powers that allowed me to do things even the demons and gods can't do.

I then started to sing.

In the midst of the rainy season

Today, after the rain

a lukewarm wind

blows through the quiet night streets

Summer draws near

Shining with light

it steals my gaze

I want to hold it

I want to try touching it

You are just like this firefly

Finishing my song, I opened my eyes to see that the door was finally opened. That's weird... My voice is a song, the flute I played is also a song, so why did the flute not work? Well, there is a small difference between them, but how would this door be able to differentiate that? Well, let's ignore that and just welcome ourselves.

I entered the cave. In the middle of the room was a table. On top of the table there was lying on it as if they were in hibernation. The room smelled of the scent alike to sandalwood. The energy I sensed from the room was dark energy. This cave must belong to demons then, I thought. There was nothing else other than pure sparkling water that surrounded the table bed.

The bed was shining in red below the person who was sleeping on it. My curiosity got the best of me, so I went to look. Who would have thought that I would discover what I have been dreaming since the day I woke up from my slumber.

I finally found him...
