Xie Ming was startled when Jian Yan asked that question. What does he mean? SAV highschool? When they were young?

She pursed her lips and tried to remember if Xie Ming had met anyone with the name Jian Yan. However, no matter what she can't remember anyone with this name.

Jian Yan pursed his lips seeing her complex expressions. " It's Wu Yan. My real name is Wu Yan," he whispered.

She blinked and tried to rummage her mind when something hit her. " Wu Yan?" she whispered in a daze.

Even though those memories were blurry, she remembered that Xie Ming had met a guy named Wu Yan at SAV highschool. After that day, things in her life started to go wrong. Her mother died soon after that, Xinyi and Rouxi entered her house while her relationship with Qin Jia became ugly. Not only that, she was accused of harassing a guy and had to leave the country.

Also, even though it was a brief meeting, she remembered it. That guy...she stared at Jian Yan with wide eyes, " You're that fat guy?"

The guy named Wu Yan in Xie Ming's memories is a fat guy who wore large glasses and was scared of those bullies but he was also the last person who was nice to her.

Jian Yan stared into her wide eyes and chuckled, " Yeah. I am that fat guy." he felt relieved that she didn't forget about him fully. It took her long to remember about him.

He sighed. If he had told her this earlier, or have met her earlier, then their story would have been different. She wouldn't be Mrs. Jin but Mrs. Wu.

Xie Ming stared at him in a daze. He looked different. If he hadn't told his name and that school's name, she wouldn't have able to remember him.

" So...you know that it was me all along?" she asked.

He nodded.

" I recognized you when I saw you for the first time."

" Then why didn't you say anything? I mean..you could have asked me before?" she asked.

He sighed, " I was just...waiting for you to recognize me. But If I hadn't said this today, then we might have had no chances to meet again."

Xie Ming smiled as she stared into his eyes. He looks too different from what he used to look when he was young.

She was staring at him when she saw something strange. Her eyes widened in shock as she saw something strange when Jian Yan, who was sitting in a pastel blue suit, his clothes changed into a traditional royal outfit. His suit changed into a dark blue royal robe, and his hands filled with rings made of precious gems and there was a heavy golden crown, embedded with precious jewels. His eyes...the innocent eyes that were pleasing to look at changed into something dark and dangerous.

She shivered when her eyes met his dangerous dark cold eyes.

" Xie Ming, Xie Ming, you okay?" Jian Yan looked at her in worry seeing her staring at him with her eyes wide.

She looked so scared that she broke out in a cold sweat.

Xie Ming who was staring at him was startled when he nudged her and she saw him changing back to normal. Her lips quivered seeing this change. Her hands shivered remembering that dangerous gaze.

" Xie Ming.." he looked at her in worry and was wondering if he should turn the car back and take her to the hospital when she said, "I...I am fine."

He looked at her but she didn't look fine at all. However she insisted on going home, so he had no choice but to start the car.

During the remaining ride, Xie Ming didn't say anything and just closed her eyes and rested her head against the window.

After he dropped her, Xie Ming smiled at him and urged him to go back to Ms. Wu. She would have invited him inside for tea or coffee but she was not in a state to offer him anything. She just wants to go upstairs and rest.

Her body was feeling as if she was going to faint the very next minute.

When she entered the house, Yu Ming greeted her in surprise, " Miss, you are back so early?" she smiled mildly seeing her, as she had taken a month leave and came back from her hometown.

" You're back," Xie Ming commented.

" Miss, you're okay? You don't look well." Yu Ming said in worry.

Xie Ming shook her head weakly and prepared to go up but her body didn't match with her actions. The strength she was holding onto all along snapped and her body swayed in the air before falling on the ground.

" MISS!" Yu Ming shouted in shock seeing her fainting all of a sudden. She walked to her and placed her head in her lap and patted her cheeks, " Miss, Miss."

The head butler and kitchen staff gathered hearing her shriek and were shocked unconscious Xie Ming on the ground.

On the other side of the world, Zhao Ming looked at the hairpin and lay on the bed while holding onto the jade hairpin tightly. After meditating for hours, she decided to take any action to remember those dark memories.

She was lying on the bed, with her black hair spread onto the pillow, and she was clutching onto the hairpin tightly and closed her eyes. Her chest heaved up and down as she relaxed her body and focused her body energy in one direction. She was using the method that she learned from Shen Jia from meditation.

Since she didn't get any dreams in the past month, she decided to take this action and meditate while holding the hairpin. Shen Jia told her about this method that it's very dangerous and her body might not be able to sustain its strong energy and she might fall into a dangerous situation where she cannot come back.
