Book:Reborn as A Princess Published:2024-5-1

“Clap!” Another slap runs to her face. “Hey, stop playing innocent, you can’t fool me! You should feel a great honor that I chose you for my royal concubine, even though you are a cold-blooded woman!” Sung says coldly, continues, “You listen very carefully now, my heart is to Lacey now. No matter what kind of trick you do, it’s not gonna work.” Wendy stares at him blankly, she doesn’t understand what the hell he is talking about? “Please, hold on, could you tell me what happened?” She asks in a weak voice. Someone needs to give her a clear answer, indeed. She died perhaps, and there’s no wound on her chest. Then those unpleasant memories rush through her mind. She gets eager to know what exactly happened to her! “Wait, time traveler?!” A word runs to her head, alright, this makes sense! She used to watch those movies about the time travelers on Netflix. Those people woke up from an unknown place, especially in a different dimension. As we say we human beings live in the third dimension. Then somehow at some points, our aura fields get connected with other dimensions. Then we move there, automatically.
Noticing this, Wendy is in a panic, “Why… What the fuck?! I don’t wanna be here, I want to go home!” She starts to complain, panting, her head gets blank. However, Sung doesn’t pay attention to her. He puts the black silk gown with python gown on, which is sewed by the golden threads; Then a golden belt with jades; And his black lambskin shiny boots.
Sung glances at Wendy with his cold glares, says one word each time, “I will never forgive you, if my Zoe won’t wake up! I will make you suffer!” Wendy grabs his hand, trying to ask more. In the meantime, her aura field crushes to something else again! With two kinds of memories combined. She can’t figure it out which one belongs to her now? The other memory confuses her. “I’m Wendy from the 21st century, I’m Wendy…” She murmurs, tries to deepen the impression of her true self! Sung lets her hand go, glances at her in ruthless, “As you know, Lacey will become my new concubine tomorrow. It’s her big day! If you still want to keep your position, I suggest you be quiet! Otherwise, I will exile you, though my mother will against!” He throws his sleeves angrily, then heads out.
The moment he’s out, a maid and a nanny run in. “Are you okay, Princess?” The nanny covers her with a coverlet, asks in amazed. While, the maid is in a panic, crying. Wendy watches them, curiously. Her maid looks around 14, in a very young age. She wears a navy blue dress. She looks fragile. Her nanny looks older than her mom, about 50. She wears gray. “Nanny Chen, and Daisy…” Two names appear to her mind. One is Nanny Chen, that old lady; The other is the girl, her maid, Daisy.
At this point, she tries to calm herself down. She has no way out anyway. “Hey, don’t worry. I’m fine. Can any of you go fetching my clothes, please?” She orders very gently, as if she is the real Princess. Her gentle and calm have shocked them, “Princess, if you feel bad, just cry it out! That’s feeling better!” Chen says carefully.
“Well, why should I keep indulging myself in this pessimistic?” She smiles then notices the bloodstain on the sheet. Well, if she needs to cry for a reason, then perhaps something about her virgin. Chen and Daisy notice the red mark on her face, from the slaps. They sigh, maybe she’s trying to be tough and durable, they think. They remain silent, then help her get off the messy bed.
They offer Wendy a seat, helps her with the clothes. Wendy looks at herself, the magnificent golden gown, shining with five-colored golden Phoenix on it. She looks glamour, as those Princesses on the TV! However, she still seems sad, she misses the world she belongs to, and her parents. They must be worried about her right now! And her brother, how sad of him if she died in that world… She sighs, then heads up to check this fancy room. Different kinds of furniture which made of redwood, are placed in stylish. The gray marble floor looks so glossy and clear, which she can see her reflection on it. There are two big pillars as well in this room, the five-colored Phoenix are decorated on them, look as if they were alive. Next to the windowsill, a big white fur carpet is placed beneath, next to it, is a redwood tea table. Looking up, A China blue and white porcelain vase is on the table, with a bunch of white and yellow Lily in it. The decent smell of the lily, brings a peace to the room. For the dressing table, it’s placed near the tea table. It’s a large scale table, made by redwood for sure. Different kinds of jewelry boxes lie on it, each contains rouges with different smells from different flowers like rose, daisy or lily, etc.
Wendy moves to the carpet, closes her eyes and takes a deep breath. She tries to recall her deep memories of this world.
Her name is Yasmin, 18, from Hou royal family. She has a good looking in town, same as Lacey, her younger sister. Their mother is a princess of the Zixu royal family. So we could say Wendy is a princess. Since Yasmin was three years old, she had made her marriage with the third prince of Anqing, Sung. And Yasmin became the royal concubine after then. About tomorrow, her little sister will marry to Sung as well, which makes Yasmin jealous. A lot. Both of them fall in love with the same man, how tragedy of it! Yasmin and Sung they used to love each other. However, things changed after that day… One year ago, the day before her marriage, a girl named Zoe accidentally fell under the bridge. Everyone thought Yasmin did it, cause Zoe loved Sung as well. People thought Yasmin revenge her. But she never did it. It’s someone else who tried to kill Zoe.
