I reincarnated in ancient China with him ??

The next day came and when I woke up, I found myself in an unfamiliar bedroom... I thought that I was still dreaming, so I began exploring every corner of the room : The bedroom was similar to the ones I saw in dramas picturing Chinese traditional cullture.

The bed was in the middle, stick to the wall. On the left, there was a delicate folding screen picturing a crane in some landscape and beside was hanging a lamp. Just next to it, there was a mirror, certainly different from the perfect ones we have in the modern time : it was a mirror made in bronze and adorn by multiples luxuries. And then, I was shocked to see my appearance : Long silver hair and golden eyes. And finally, the body of a five years old child ?? It was like I dyed my hair and put on contact lenses. I pinched my right cheek and cried a pained moan. I was drawn to this strange appearance but still decided to go on. 'Okay, so let's think later. Let's explore the room first'. I then switch my attention to the closet.

The mirror was put between the folding screen and a closet. In there was laying several pieces of fine clothes, soft and meticulously sewn with intricate designs. I closed the wardrobe and went to check the right side. There was a window near the bed dividing the bedroom with another one. It seems to be a study as it contains the smell of ink and paper mixed with woods. Next to the window was a make-up table with two drawers. One containing hairpins and combs and the other one containing bracelets, necklaces and earrings.

Then, a woman opened the door in front of the bed and saw me. She seemed to be a maid from her attire. She addressed me.

"Good morning my lady, I did not figure you would wake up so early. My apologize. Please, punish me."

"It's fine." I said with a cold voice while panicking : 'Okay, so to sum up, I am now a lady in a rich family it seems. Wow, what the h*ck ? Why did I even come here ? Is it really not a dream ? It seems so real and fantastic at the same time. I don't know anymore.'

When I regain my wits, I saw my reflection in the mirror. The haircut was done and I was dressed in a beautiful yellow gown.

"The master and the mistress are waiting for you to begin the breakfast my lady."

"Let's go.'' I said nonchalantly. It seems that my behaviour was in accord with the owner of this body. I wasn't sure but I just acted so naturally that it was frightening. I stepped outside of the room and my eyes were opened to the maximum. I knew that I was in ancient China but knowing it and realizing it was completely different ! There was a huge courtyard decorated with bamboo and trees. In the middle was a table with several dishes. A man and woman were sitting on chairs and seemingly talking in a very affectionate way. I made my way to the table.

"Father, mother, I wish you both a good day." I said curtly while feeling conflicted about this situation.

"Come eat quickly my dear child.''

"Sit next to mother this time, will you ?" She said so with a big smile...

I replied with a smile myself and nodded. But then, someone came and announced a guest, my supposed fiancé or rather this body fiancé.

"Oh he finally arrived ! Tell him to come and eat with us." 'My father' exclaimed.

After several minutes, the guest finally made his appearance.

"Good morning Sir, Madam and lady. I brought you some souvenirs."

"Oh my, no needs for formality like that." 'My mother' replied.

"Right, there is no need to do so next time, don't worry.''

However, my chopsticks fell down. Why ? Why is he here again ? Why him in particular ? He was the one who charred my heart. He was the one that I hated so much.

''Did you miss me so much my lady ?'' He asked playfully and smiled gently. He was indeed him or more accurately a younger self of him. The same habit, the same mole on his left ear.

"You must be joking. Why would I be missing you ?" Did he also retain the memories of modern Earth and reincarnated here ? If that was the case, what about my real family ? Did they come here like me ?

The boy was staring at me and smiled knowingly. ''Well, I do remember a certain lady crying over my departure a year ago."

I just smiled and cursed the owner of this body. I cursed the heavens putting me in such a situation. And I cursed myself.
