Roses Are Red

PROLUGUE

"After everything I've done for you, this is how you repay me?" Bai Luoheng said, looking at Li Xiaoping with an expressionless face.

"What did you do for me, huh?" He started with a questioning look. "With my memories not deceiving me, I'm sure that the only thing you did was make me look bad to the whole city, you foolish woman!" Li Xiaoping shouted.

"Well, I'm pretty sure you want me dead, and even if I'm alive, my emotions are already dead, so there's no point in living." 

Bai Luoheng looked at the guard beside her and removed his sword, immediately stabbing herself. It happened so quickly and swiftly like the wind that the guard couldn't control his jaw from dropping.

"Close that filthy mouth of yours before a fly goes in. Haven't you ever seen someone as fast as that and even faster than that?" Li Xiaoping yelled in irritation.

"Yes Prince, I'm sorry," the innocent guard replied immediately.

"Quickly discard this body far in the bushes. The vultures will surely do their job happily. What are you still doing standing there!"

"Oh, sorry prince," the guard said and quickly started to drag the body.

"Sometimes, I do think that vultures and ants are more sensible and hardworking than you foolish humans who have no sense of reasoning," Li Xiaoping said with an irritated frown and walked away.

'Like you're not a human too,' The guard thought in his mind. 

If it wasn't for his family and food, he wouldn't have been here doing these filthy unclean jobs for the prince. In fact, in this whole city, no one would ever believe that Prince Xiaoping would do such a thing to a woman, to his wife for that matter.  He was not human at all, just a devil in sheep's clothing!

"Hey brother, where have you been, I've been searching for you everywhere!" Li Mo Zhi pouted, waving her hand as soon as she set eyes on her brother.

"Ah, Little Zhi... I was just settling some matters but it has been resolved though," He lied

"What matters?"

"Its none of your business"

Li Mo Zhi frowned.

"But I'm here now, there's nothing to worry about," Li Xiaoping said laughing. "By the way, what happened?" Li Xiaoping asked tactfully, trying to avoid any more unfriendly questions.

"Mother has sent for you" Li Mo Zhi answered indifferently and turned away to leave, but suddenly, her face brightened.

"Aha! Before I forget, do you perhaps know where Sister Louheng is?"  

"...No, I don't."

"I've been looking for her for what seems like ages and I can't find her still."

"I better get going before mother gets upset." he said and walked away.

"Tsk, what's the hurry?" She sighed and said dreamily, "Love can do wonders, I can't wait to get married. Anyway, it's none of my business as brother said."

Li Mozhi walking away, still searching for Bai Louheng.

CHAPTER 1

"oh, it was just a dream" Bai luoheng said holding her head "it's so comfortable here" she thought.

"a dream that contains things I've never seen before" she said and smiled.

Fully opening her eyes, she saw herself in an environment that she has never seen before. a very strange environment.

she stood up and walked around the room. by the side of the room, she saw a mirror. she was a completely different person now. she looked at her hands and the strange outfit she was in. then suddenly, she regained the memories of her past life.

she clenched her fingers in anger.

"I transmigrated" she said with a scoff. she didn't know the reason why she wasn't even surprised.

everything became clear to her. what she thought was a dream, was actually memories of the real owner of the body.

she was poisoned by her own sister which led to her death.

she was being mistreated by her classmates because she is a nerd and is kinda foolish.

she doesn't have any friend and is always on her own.

"an unfortunate girl with a poor fate. don't worry, know that I posses this body, no one will try anything stupid"

"mum, I'm very sure. she's dead. It was hard for me to believe too," Bai huizhen said pretending to be sad.

"it's not possible, I don't believe it," Wang Yinan said tearfully. "I should see her for the last time at least." she walked hurriedly to Bai luoheng's room with Bai Huizhen following her at the back.

"someone is coming" luoheng said in her mind as she heard some footsteps.

Wang Yinan opened the door slowly and was surprised to see her child looking at her.

"Umm... huizhen, I thought you said that she was dead. or you just wanted to scare me?"

"no mum, I'm very sure... I mean I.... I saw her and her face was pale.... I even felt her pulse.

"well, she's alive"

"it's not just possible. I'm sure that I... "

"mum, sister, hi. are you guys here to see me or something else?"

"oh, sorry princess. we thought you are dead but surprisingly, you're alive!" Wang Yinan said and hugged luoheng.

"how is this even possible. I personally fed her that poison and I watched her drink it until the bowl was empty. it can't be possible that she's alive! if this is a dream, it will be better if I wake up now!" huizhen thought and used her handkerchief to wipe off the bids of sweat from her forehead.

she clenched her fingers and left in anger, not bothering to greet her sister.

"what's up with her. she behaves abnormally these days I don't know why. sorry, let me talk to her. I'll be right back." Wang Yinan said

"no mum, don't bother about it. when some people don't accomplish their mission, they tend to get angry."

"how do you mean?" Wang Yinan asked confused.

"don't worry mum, you won't understand."

"well, I'm still willing to talk to her. it's an act of disrespect." Wang Yinan said and walked away.

"I feel free, like something which was closed has been opened. a really weird feeling." luoheng thought and sat on her bed.

"hello master."

"who is there?" luoheng asked looking all over the room.

"I'm Feibai. I live in you that's why you can't see me. look at your wrist"

"what the.... why is this mark on my hand?"

"don't you'll know sooner or later. In the main time, you no longer have blocked meridians"

"that means I'm free to cultivate right?"

"yes, but is this really a thing to be sad about?"

"it's none of your business"

"no, what I mean is, I'm giving you a very good news but you're totally expressionless. not happy and not sad"

"is there a way to seal that mouth of yours?"

"alright, I'll keep my mouth shut"

luoheng walked up to her door and locked it to ensure that no one disturbs her when cultivating.

she started cultivating but there was something that was strange not right about it.....

CHAPTER 2

Red and blue flames were all around Bai luoheng.

when she opened her eyes, the two were different colors, red and blue which was constantly exchanging their colors.

12 tails suddenly appeared on her back. six were red and the other six were blue, they were constantly exchanging colors too.

suddenly, she started flying in the air still with her meditating like position and was also rotating.

after a few minutes, she heard someone knocking. she released herself and landed steadily with her feet on the floor.

she opened the door and was surprised to see her mother and Bai huizhen.

"oh, mum you're here."

"yes, and your sister came with me"

"oh, I see you got to convince her. I think that's why you look so tired" Bai luoheng said looking at Bai huizhen.

"sister, you should mind your language" Bai huizhen said

"why, I didn't say anything wrong. what I see is what I believe. at least I'm better than some people who try to kill their own blood all because of not minding their business right sis?"

"you better behave yourself luoheng, or else...." Bai Huizhen said pointing her forefinger at luoheng.

"or else what, huh?" luoheng said as she held huizhen's hand and brought it down.

"what strong power she has. my hand still hurts badly. I can't believe luoheng has changed so much. or was the poison meant for another thing entirely?" Bai huizhen asked herself "but I can't just sit here and allow her to keep saying these things. mum would become suspicious" Bai huizhen thought, stealing a glance at her mother. luckily, Mrs Bai was looking away.

"or maybe you'll try killing me for the second time. right?"

"oh, sorry if it's for the incident that happened. forgive me sister" Bai huizhen said and hugged luoheng.

"seriously, is this all you can do to cover up your shameful act?" luoheng whispered in Bai huizhen's ear.

"I'm very glad you're alive sister. I can't imagine what would have happened if you didn't wake up" Bai huizhen said in a loud voice and smiled.

"I'm glad you're alive too. you should also be thanking God for keeping you alive to see this hour. none of us knows when death will come you see. some even get killed because of jealousy." Bai luoheng smiled back.

"I'm so happy you're back but I've got a headache and there are some things I have to do. sorry I couldn't spend much time." Bai huizhen said and turned to walk away.

"oh, don't worry, the headache is only natural for people like you" she smiled "but don't worry sis, we'll surely have a discussion again. bye" Bai luoheng said with her hands on the shoulder and her mouth, 3 inches away from Bai huizhen's ear. then she smirked.

"wait, not so fast.what was that just now?" Wang Yinan asked.

"you can try asking sister huizhen, I'm pretty sure she get the situation more than I do. right sister?"

"yes" she said with clenched fingers and gritted teeth. "it was nothing mum"

"what incident happened that had her almost killed?" Mrs Wang assked

"umm... no mum, an accident happened some months ago when you were not home. I and luoheng were practicing an experiment but it didn't turn out how we thought it would"

"so where's the scar?" Mrs Wang asked

the question made Bai huizhen to freeze but God helped her that she was lucky to see a cut on luoheng's wrist.

"there mum" Bai huizhen said pointing at it

"oh, but that's just a small cut. and why does it have a weird shape."

"it was not a very big failure in the experiment I think it healed"

"oh, then you guys have no reason to quarrel over that. how childish." Mrs Wang said and left.

to avoid anymore ugly situation, Bai huizhen followed her at the back and closed the door behind her.

"right, about this." luoheng said touching her wrist. it was actually the mark that 'she couldn't know about'
