ETERNAL LOVE : A LOVE STORY

Chapter 729 - The Curse (4)

Zhao Ming was shocked to see the wooden plank on which English was written. There is no way that something like 'Welcome to the Hotel' will be written on the board, that too in English.

She was standing frozen in her place, her mind was not processing as she could not believe that what she was thinking had actually happened.

" Is this...21st century?" she murmured in shock. She pinched herself and winced at the pain.

" It's real. It's fu*&ng real!!" she shouted in shock while turning to Ji Cheng and shaking his shoulders in disbelief.

On the other hand, Ji Cheng who was wondering about this place, frowned at her actions seeing her acting like an overly excited kid. He frowned at her as he wondered what she was speaking in an alien language.

"Why are you acting as if you lost your mind? Can't you mind your behavior as the Empress of Ji Dynasty?" He commented but his rude comments were not effective on her as she couldn't help but laugh.

What kind of strange situation is this? They landed up in the same place where she was planning to visit before she died by drowning in the swimming pool.

The day she fell into the swimming pool and died and went to the Ji Dynasty and became an Empress overnight, a day before that she was planning to go to the newly inaugurated five-star hotel in the suburbs.

In the suburbs of the Xia city, it was the only hotel that was beautifully designed based on the traditional palace architecture, called The King.

Not only that, it has an artificial hot spring and various other things to see. She remembered it clearly because she had argued with Liwei over it because he was not letting her visit here.

The hot spring that she had seen in the pictures only, she never thought that she would get to see this place this way.

She stared at Ji Cheng in disbelief and wondered how come he is here? How did he manage to follow her to this world?

She looked at him with shocked expressions as she was overwhelmed with the emotions.

" We're not in Ji city but...Xia city. It's my...my world." She whispered hesitantly worried about his reaction.

He frowned as he couldn't hear her words properly and only heard her say...my world.

" What are you saying? And we need to hurry up and get out of here. Everyone must be searching for us at the palace.

She pursed her lips and before she could make him understand the situation they were in, she heard an unfamiliar voice from afar,

" Hey. Who is it in the spring? Didn't you know that no one is allowed at the spring today?" The guard who was assigned to check the hot spring came towards them when he noticed the two figures standing in the water while he was checking everything.

He stood afar, at the surface, and glared at the couple who were wearing traditional heavy outfits in the hot spring.

He couldn't help but frown at their strange clothing. In their spring, no one is allowed to go in wearing their clothes, they can wear swimming suits, or gowns provided by the hotel but no personal clothes.

However, they were not only standing in the water without permission and were wearing clothes as if they were dressed for a fancy dress competition.

" Who are you? How did you get in here? Come out here." The guard demanded coldly.

Zhao Ming pursed her lips as they were caught by the guard. She cursed under her breath and wondered what was going to happen if he found out that they are not the guests.

Ji Cheng frowned seeing the man being rude to them. He gritted his teeth and shouted, " HOW DARE YOU? Do you know what could be the consequences of your rudeness?"

Zhao Ming was startled when Ji Cheng shouted, with his dark expressions, showing his power at the guard who was looking at him with grim expressions now.

' His Emperor syndrome is gonna put both of us in jail if this continues. ' she wondered seeing how he was shouting at the guard.

Poor him! He doesn't even know that even the guard here has more power over them. Because technically they are nothing more than the illegal immigrants, the only twist is, they came from the other world and not the country. She wondered and shook her head helplessly.

" What? You're the one who entered the prohibited area and arguing rather than apologizing. You both...come out!"

" You want the Empe-

Ji Cheng was about to counter-attack when Zhao Ming stopped him from speaking by squeezing his hand.

"Just your mouth," she whispered, making him frown.

"What did you say? Don't forget that-

He was starting to give her a lecture but she turned to look at him and give him a pleading look," Please! If you don't want to become a criminal then just shut up and follow me."

"-_-"

He couldn't understand if she was requesting him or ordering him. The more confusing thing was the guard's clothes and the extreme casual language which also had some unfamiliar words to him.

Is it a foreigner?

He couldn't understand where they were and why Zhao Ming looked so scared.

He held her hand and assured her, Don't worry. I will protect you. " He said, pulling her behind him, taking the guard as one of the thugs.

"-_-"

Zhao Ming couldn't help but stake her head in disbelief. How could she break his bubble that he is not the Emperor anymore? Along with his identity, his power as an Emperor disappeared as well.

' Just don't do anything. I beg you.'

Ji Dynasty.

Wen Ru looked at Feng Ju and the other guards and pursed his lips. The news that they have given him, shook him so much that he was not speechless.

They were now in Ji Cheng's study and gathered to discuss the events that had shaken the foundation of the palace.

" Feng Ju, what do you mean you couldn't find them? Even if His Majesty jumped into the lake to save her, he must be there, shouldn't he?"

" You not only failed to protect her highness but his majesty as well." He said coldly.

It's been hours that they were trying to find them but they were nowhere to be seen. It's as if they disappeared into the thin air.

When Feng Ju reached the lake, he was shaken seeing the situation. He soon jumped to look for Ji Cheng but they were nowhere to be found.

After hours of checking, they're finally back at the palace while some guards were still stationed at the place of the accident.

" Don't tell anyone for now about the event today. We need to find His Majesty before our enemies find out about the situation." Wen Ru commanded.
