Zhao Ming was confused about why Ji Cheng did not want to go to his room and was adamant to stay with her?

  He casually laid beside her with his legs stretched out and loosened his robe to relax. When his robe loosened, she could see his chest slightly which was peeking behind his layered clothes.

  When she spotted his chest peeking out through his clothes, she couldn't help but gulp in anticipation.

  He laid by her side and also forced her to lay as well. He patted her head like a baby to coax her to sleep which made her feel uncomfortable.

  She felt a tingling sensation in her stomach when he patted her head. His cold hand was patting her head like she was a baby.

  Just as she was about to open her mouth to say something, she heard a knock on the door.

  Feng Ju's voice came from outside saying, " Your highness, I have brought the documents that you have asked for."

  Ji Cheng asked him to bring the documents a while ago when they were following Zhao Ming to her chamber.

  This time Feng Ju didn't come inside, instead, Ji Cheng went outside to take documents from him.

  Zhao Ming was surprised to see Ji Cheng getting up from the bed and going out to take the documents from him. He could have called Feng Ju in, there is no need for him to go out.

  Zhao Ming: " - _-".

  ' We're not doing anything then why does he have to be so secretive? He could have called him instead. ' her face turned red thinking about the way he went outside the documents rather than calling him in.

  It felt like they were doing something. She couldn't help but cool down her boiling face with her cold hands.

  Ji Cheng went out to take documents because Zhao Ming was laying on the bed and was rather comfortable with her appearance. Her hair was slightly disheveled and her appearance was not upright.

  She looks more beautiful in her laid back appearance and he does not want to let anyone see her in this way other than him.

  When Ji Cheng returned, he came with documents in his one hand and a tray in the other on which fruits and tea were placed.

  Zhao Ming who was sleeplessly laying on the bed immediately sat up and asked him in surprise, " These…"

  She spotted him coming with a tray full of fruits and tea which looked delicious. She was itching to eat something sweet.

  She didn't complete her words when Ji Cheng placed the tray in front of her and said, " I thought that you must be hungry so I asked Feng Ju earlier to get some fruits and tea for you."

  Zhao Ming was touched by his words. She was indeed feeling hungry.

  Though she had lunch in the afternoon, however, after all the drama, she has no energy and she needs something to eat to charge her energy.

  She picked up the aromatic tea and smelled it. The tea here is much more aromatic and healthy.

  It does not have any artificial chemicals and only handpicked organic tea. That's why it is more healthy and delicious.

  In her time, she used to drink expensive organic tea but even that failed in front of this one. It smells so nice that she can't get over it. In her last life, she isn't fond of drinking tea and only drinks expensive imported tea but after coming here she drinks tea with some fruits.

  'But she still wants coffee. ' she frowned thinking that it's been days that she hasn't drunk coffee.

  Though she liked tea here still she was missing her coffee as well.

  Ji Cheng didn't go to the table in the room to read his documents instead sat on the bed beside her with his legs stretched out making him look domineering and charming.

  Zhao Ming was surprised when he sat on the bed again. She was expecting him to sit at the table since he got his documents and it will be comfortable that way. But he sat on the bed beside her.

  With him on the bed, the large bed seems to be shrinking and she felt that there is not much distance between them.

  Zhao Ming who was drinking her tea choked up seeing him laying on the bed so comfortable that it is his bed.

  Her mind started running like a wild horse and she imagined herself pouncing on him like a wild fox and stripping his layers of clothes on by one. This scene made her face flush in embarrassment.

  ' She could write some wild novels as well.' she gulped when she looked at his charismatic face.

  She started coughing unstopping when she choked on her tea. A hand came to her from behind startling her and started patting her back gently.

  " Are you okay?" Ji Cheng who was reading his document, saw her getting choked and immediately went to pat her back.

  Zhao Ming widened her eyes in shock and turned away her scarlet red face. She was so embarrassed because her wild imagination is taking her senses away.

  She never thought that she could have this side to her as well. She wanted to be an elegant and respected lady as well but her hormones are not helping her at all.

  Ji Cheng: " - _-"

  Ji Cheng has no idea what he has done wrong. But when he noticed her earlobes which has turned red and she was holding the cup tightly in nervousness, his lips curled up in a smile.

  He knows that she must be thinking something else which made her face red in embarrassment.

  ' This girl……'

  …..

  After eating some snacks, she felt better. She wasn't as tired as before anymore.

  She looked at Ji Cheng who was reading his documents seriously. His aura is very different and was looking very charming at the moment.

  She shook her head and tried to get off the bed.

  Sensing her movements, Ji Cheng looked up and saw her getting off the bed. He raised his brows and asked in confusion, " Aren't you sleeping anymore? Where are you going?"

  Zhao Ming who was trying to get off the bed stopped in the middle and was sitting in a dog pose as she suddenly paused in her actions.

  Her both hands were placed in the bed and hearing his words, she looked towards him in her same dog pose.

  Ji Cheng's brows twitched seeing her in this seductive position. His swallowed his saliva seeing her looking at him in this position

  Her hair was open which was feeling on her hair making her look more tempting and beautiful.

  Zhao Ming raised her brows and said casually, " I am not tired anymore. I am going to take a bath."

  Ji Cheng looked at her in confusion and asked, " Bath? At this time? Why?".

  He was confused about why she wanted to bathe at this time. The sun was about to set and in a few hours, they will have their dinner.

  So what's the reason for taking a bath at this time?

  Zhao Ming rolled her eyes at him with a perplexed expression," Doesn't we have a welcome feast in a few hours?"

  Zhao Ming wanted to take a bath and get ready prettily, after all, it's a welcome feast. She can't possibly go to the feast in her normal clothes.

  The meaning of welcome feast should be like dinner parties which were held in her time where they all get dressed up prettily and show off their richness.

  'Here it should be a similar thing? Isn't it? '

  Ji Cheng looked at her in deep thought and said, " Yes. But you can just change your clothes if you want. There is no need to bathe and get dressed up. This is just a family gathering, so there is no need for all these formalities." he said casually.

  He does not want to make her feel uncomfortable because he knows that she doesn't like to get dressed up much.

  She prefers to be comfortable and simple.

  Zhao Ming rolled her eyes at him.

  ' Only family? But the problem is, there are not 3-4 people in the family. There are so many because he has consorts other than Xiao Li and then Wen Ru. Even though Wen Xu isn't here but Xiao Li is here to give her trouble.'

  " It's okay. I wanted to get ready for the feast. After all, it's brother Wen Ru' s welcome feast, I shouldn't be too casual for it." she said with a smile on her face.

  She wanted to get along with Wen Ru because he can help her to set her business here or maybe she can find some new fun things to do here as well.

  She doesn't want to die from boredom here.

  Ji Cheng's face darkened hearing her calling Wen Ru so intimately.

  ' Brother Wen Ru?'

  " There is no need to do all this hassle. Come and sleep here. I will wake you up when it's time for dinner. Come." His tone suddenly became cold and Zhao Ming felt chills around her as he patted the side beside him.

  She blinked her eyes innocently at her. She has no idea why this man was behaving this way.

  He suddenly became so stern, ordering her to not bathe and get ready.

  Doesn't he want his wife to look beautiful and attractive, so that other people also admire her, just like they do to Xiao Li?

  She always dressed up beautifully and everyone admires her. Doesn't he want her to get the same attention?
