To Love You Again

Xiong Zhi felt her whole body was submerged in an endless wave.

She was getting in and out of consciousness as if she was sinking. She doesn't know how much time had passed until she felt someone fished her out from the water.

She felt a pair of giant hands get hold of her and enclosed her gently.

Xiong Zhi could not tell what state she was in. She wasn't choked by the water nor could she feel being wet. As if all her senses were purposely hindered.

'Ah...This must be a dream.'

The quick-witted Xiong Zhi realized this one thing.

That's when she could see the scenery in front of her.

As she had guessed, she was seating on a pair of hands. Two huge silver-blue moons hung above her head. The sky was strikingly the color of silver.

Xiong Zhi always thought that the pair of two rounded silver-blue was two moons. It was now that she realized that those were pair of eyes.

How familiar...

[You have done well.]

A gentle voice echoed everywhere. It was pleasing to the ears.

Xiong Zhi remained silent. Her mind was clear, and she remembered everything.

Her death...Her remorse...

The first meeting with this deity-like person...

Her wish and this deity's wish.

Her granted second chance.

It all remained clear.

"...Did I truly succeed?"

The silver-blue moon turned into a beautiful crescent.

[Yes. You have overcome your fate and you helped me attain my wish. This is enough payment.]

Xiong Zhi's heart that was tense all this time finally relaxed.

The monster in her nightmares had died. The people who wanted to harm her have received their retribution and disappeared.

Although there were foes who came her way, she defeated them all.

New obstacles may come, but she believed she could overcome them with Linfeng by her side.

Now that they both overcome their tragic fate, no matter what comes to them, they would not be separated again.

Xiong Zhi felt grateful. She bowed to express her gratitude. "Thank you...I could not express how grateful I am. Thank you for choosing me to get this precious second chance."

There are no more words that could describe Xiong Zhi's gratitude toward this deity-like existence.

She might not understand how supernatural phenomenon such as this works. She doesn't mean to understand it at all. As long as she could live again with Linfeng by her side, she would not question any means.

This might be a gift from God, a demon, a fairy, a witch, or a deity. No matter where this second chance came from, Xiong Zhi was thankful for it.

[There's no need for you to be indebted towards me. As I am the one who wronged you first. Now, each step you take would rewrite your new fate. Your life would depend on your actions. This would be our last meeting together.]

Xiong Zhi raised her head.

Their last meeting...

So from now on, her life depended on her decisions and actions. The past she had lived was rewritten and new fate awaits for them.

[Strong soul, I would leave my last words to you.]

The giant finger caressed Xiong Zhi's head.

[Don't let the past hinders your future. Let the scar in your heart heals, that's the only way you will be freed and embrace a new life.]

As the gentle voice traveled in the silver sky, everything around Xiong Zhi was starting to fade and disappear.

[Farewell, Strong soul. Give my descendants a hug, will you?]

Then everything was submerged in darkness.

***

When Xiong Zhi woke up, she found her hands tied by a necktie.

Xiong Zhi: ???

She looked at the man who was sleeping soundly next to her. Between them was a pillow.

Xiong Zhi: ??

What's this strange situation?

She untied the necktie first through her mouth. But this slight movement woke up the man next to her.

Linfeng opened his eyes lazily, "You are awake now, Zhi'er? How are you feeling?"

Xiong Zhi successfully unbounded her hand. "My head felt heavy and my arms felt sore. Why are my hands tied?"

Xiong Zhi's question made Linfeng remember the bitter night.

Linfeng's lips twitched, "I realized...that I would never let you become drunk unless it is a last resort."

Xiong Zhi: ??

Linfeng sat up and assisted Xiong Zhi to sit up. "It seems that you don't remember what happened. I'll bring you a hangover soup while you think about the torment you inflicted on me last night."

Xiong Zhi: "..." Torment?

Linfeng stood up. Xiong Zhi noticed that he was still wearing the same shirt and pants he used yesterday.

The clean and neat Linfeng never missed a bath at night no matter how much tired he was. So it was strange to see him in an unkempt figure.

Perhaps something really did happen last night?

Xiong Zhi then looked at her own clothes and realized she was in a new pajama. There was no smell of alcohol in her.

Linfeng must have given her a bath. So why he did not take one?

Xiong Zhi tried to remember what happened yesterday night. She remembered Jang Shin dancing like a monkey and their cheerful singing. Then in the midst of laughter, she slept halfway?

Then a flash of memories came to her.

It seemed like Linfeng carried her to the room...she vaguely remembered Linfeng giving her a bath and changing her clothes...then..she topped Linfeng?

She doesn't remember much. It was like blurred clips were flashing into her head.

In the end, the headache prevented Xiong Zhi from remembering the details of yesterday night. So she stopped and contemplated about her strange dream.

Right, she remembered it all.

The deity's existence and her second chance...

Even the time Lu Jin stood in front of her tomb and mourn for the people that he and his father had killed. It was a distant past where she hold onto him as a deranged ghost and madly desired for revenge.

But now, the future had changed.

A new unknown future awaits for her and Linfeng.

As the deity said, was it really alright for her to live the rest of her life the way she wants?

Was it really alright to forget the past and live for the future?

Can she rest now and live happily together with Linfeng?
