Xie Ming stopped sobbing hearing his words. She wiped her tears and stared at him in confusion. How can he look so calm and why didn't he say anything after he found out about her?

Or was he talking about something else?

She was still not sure if he was talking about her secret or something else.

" You..you...what you know? I mean how do you know what I am about to say?" She said whatever came to her mind, not knowing what to say

Her head was not clear and she can't think of anything else.

He chuckled seeing her acting like this. His dull mood was replaced by delight seeing her looking so adorable.

He raised his hand and rubbed her cheeks lovingly and said, " I know that you're not Xie Ming, but Zhao Ming. Right?"

"-_-"

.

She stared at him in shock and asked, " How? I..mean...like..just how?"

He sighed and asked, " You remembered that you treated a woman on the street? Doctor Lu's aunt?" She nodded as she remembered that woman.

"The next day, a strange lady came to my office, she introduced herself as Shen Jia. She claimed that she is your aunt but she said that you are not Xie Ming but Zhao Ming." He said while remembering Shen Jia's words

Xie Ming pursed her lips in a thin line knowing that Shen Jia came to meet him but only she couldn't meet her.

" At that time, I didn't think much about her and thought that she must be talking nonsense. But many things happened which were unexplainable. You suddenly know how to cook, you know about Chinese medicine and could do acupuncture better than any Oriental doctor "

" Not only that, your attitude, your way of talking, eating everything changed. Only your face was the same. I tried to ignore many things but they just left an impression on me." He said as he remembered how everything seems to be clear when he thinks about it from this perspective. It's like, all of his questions are being answered.

" Then I tried to find out about the Zhao Ming and Zhao Bai that you mentioned earlier. At that time I found out that the great Master of Chinese medicine Zhao Bai has a daughter named Zhao Ming. Not only that, but she is also the Empress of the Ji Dynasty. I was shocked that there is actually a girl named Zhao Ming and was also related to Zhao Bai, you also always react to word Empress. "

"I know about only this much about you. Although it was just an assumption, however, now everything seems clear seeing your reaction. So you're Zhao Ming, right?" He asked in a low voice while staring at her.

Xie Ming's fists were clenched tightly. She felt even more guilty knowing that he knew everything about her all along and she was shamelessly lying to him.

" Liwei.." she called his name in a low voice as tears started to form in her eyes.

" Hmm," he hummed while rubbing her back and this time he didn't ask her to stop crying. Sometimes crying is better rather than holding them back.

" I..am sorry. I shouldn't have lied to you. Even though I have no idea how all of this happened but still, I shouldn't have lied to you. I am sorry. " She said in a choked voice.

She raised her head and looked into his eyes. She was afraid to see the doubt in his gaze but her heart melted seeing his gentle expressions.

He sighed and patted her head, " It's good that you didn't tell me anything before. This way, I get to know you and our relationship is now stable enough that I can handle any strange or weird news. The only thing I can't handle is our separation. Xie Ming, no, Zhao Ming, you will not leave me right?"

" Just like in stories, you won't disappear, right? You will always be by my side right?"

Her heart ached to hear his insecure questions. He was not asking for any details or more about her past but was asking her to stay with him.

Which girl can stay strong hearing these words? Her heart melted and she burst out in tears.

He was helpless seeing her crying like this. He just hugged her pulling her into his embrace and rubbed her back trying to calm her down.

After some time, when she calmed down, she sat straight and looked at him.

He wiped her tears and asked, " Are you feeling better now?"

She nodded. She prepared herself to tell him everything, but he placed his finger on her lips and said, " Not now. We will talk about this later. First, let's eat. I don't want to let the feast that you have prepared go waste. "

She pursed her lips and nodded. She was glad that he gave her some time to calm down. This way she can get some time to relax as well.

...

On the dining table, they eat the dinner in silence. Xie Ming glanced at him while nibbling on the food with her chopsticks.

His expressions were indifferent and cold. She felt her heart sinking because he has never acted like this towards her. At least not from the day, they decided to take their relationship seriously.

The dinner ended and nobody spoke during that time. This was not the dinner that she had expected.

She bit her lower lip and wondered if she had made a big mistake by revealing her identity. Even though he had doubts about her identity but speaking about it, she just made it more complicated.

After dinner, Liwei went upstairs and entered the bathroom without looking at her.

She quietly followed behind him and wondered when he was going to look at her. She quietly sat on the bed as he went inside the bathroom to take a bath.

She was sitting on the edge of the bed and looked down at her hands which had gone cold due to nervousness.

Tears formed in her eyes and she burst it when her emotions took over her. She didn't know what she was feeling. This empty and blank feeling was making her uncomfortable. She was feeling suffocated and breathless. She just...wanted to cry.

She was afraid that Liwei might mind the fact that she was married before she came into this world. She knows that he is not that shallow and it is a very ridiculous thought, but she can't help but think about the worse situations at this moment.
