Xie Ming looked at the pasta that Liwei has made for her and used her fork to taste it. When she took a bite of it, Liwei was staring at her anticipatingly.

  He cooked for someone for the first time and that person was his wife. He wanted to look perfect in front of her.

  In fact, there are only a few dishes that he can cook and shrimp cream pasta is one of them.

  Xie Ming's eyes widened in surprise when she tasted the pasta. It was so creamy and perfectly seasoned.

  The shrimps taste so good that she can't stop eating them.

  She looked up at Liwei and exclaimed in astonishment, " Wow. It's so delicious. I never thought that you can cook such delicious food. Hmm, nice." Xie Ming praised him while taking another bite of the pasta.

  Liwei smiled radiantly hearing her words. He was glad that he cooked his specialty. But even though it's his first time cooking for her, it's very pleasant seeing her eating food made by him cheerfully……

  He took a sip of champagne from his glass while glancing at her while eating his pasta……

  Xie Ming who was eating pasta and drinking champagne was feeling excited. She thought it would be difficult for her to adjust to the food of this world because people eat western food so much these days and Xie Ming also liked them as well.

  But surprisingly, she liked western food as well. Even though traditional food is best, she likes western cuisine as well.

  She has tried the new cuisine after coming into this world and it made her realize that if she had died without tasting them then it would be such a waste.

  Liwei watched her eating happily and felt really content.

  …..

  Ji Dynasty.

  Zhao Ming did not dare to raise her head and was looking at the floor due to embarrassment.

  After all, she has hugged Ji Cheng from back in front of everyone. Though it was not a big deal for her, but their reactions definitely made it a big deal out of it.

  ' How can she not feel embarrassed about it?'

  Ji Cheng looked at her and smiled lightly seeing her flushed cheeks and how she had held her head down in embarrassment.

  Just a while ago, she revealed the fraud by Yu Kang bravely and suddenly she became a shy and embarrassed girl.

  ' This girl has so many faces to her.' He couldn't help but wonder how come this woman looks so different and refreshing every time.

  She changes in minutes. Sometimes she is lovely and immature, sometimes she shows her intelligence by doing something incredible.

  It feels that Zhao Ming is not Zhao Ming he knew before. Or maybe he didn't know her properly?

  While Ji Cheng was busy staring at Zhao Ming, Wen Ru asked someone to close the front gate.

  After the gate was closed, Zhao Ming raised her head and found Ji Cheng staring at her with an unexplainable gaze in his eyes.

  Ji Cheng didn't say anything but Wen Ru found the situation uncomfortable, so he breaks the ice and said, " Ahm, Zhao Ming, I am really sorry for whatever happened."

  " You helped me a big-time by revealing the dirty deeds done by Yu Kang and in return you have to hear such sickening words. I didn't know that Yu Kang was such a cheap person."

  " He always pretended to be a loyal and well-mannered man in front of my family. That's why no one ever doubted him. He has worked with my family for so long and yet he cheated on us. "

  " If not for you, I wouldn't even know that I have given my shop in the hands of a thief. " Wen Ru thanked and apologized to Zhao Ming at the same time.

  He is really thankful for her because if not for her he wouldn't even know how much funds Yu Kang has stolen from the shop.

  Zhao Ming looked at Wen Ru and gave him a polite smile.

  " I did nothing significant Brother Wen. We are family after all. I am glad that I was able to help you. And about what he said," Zhao Ming paused as she thought about Yu Kang's words, her face darkened.

  Ji Cheng looked at her and saw her expressions changing. His heart ached seeing her troubled expressions because someone actually dared to say such disgusting things about her in front of him.

  His hands turned into fists as he saw her gloomy expression.

  Zhao Ming controlled her emotions and looked at Wen Ru again, " About those words that he said……I won't say that I didn't mind. I do mind because no one… No one can say such things about me or anyone else."

  " But you don't need to apologize on his behalf because you did not do anything. I don't care much about his words, because he is nobody to me. But I won't forget the words he said today and will never forgive him. " she said firmly.

  Yu Kang was just a servant and yet he dared to say such things to her. Even though she doesn't like getting into fights and all but she can't accept this insult.

  Wen Ru looked at her and nodded. He was surprised hearing her words because the Zhao Ming he knew, was very kind and compassionate.

  She used to get emotional easily and could have forgiven Yu Kang seeing that he has a wife and two children. But she didn't, which really surprised him.

  Ji Cheng smiled seeing Zhao Ming's strong-headed attitude and that she didn't forgive that man just because he has a family.

  The ones who use their family to hide their wrong deeds are sickening people because if you're that worried about your family, then you shouldn't have done the wrong things in the first place.

  After doing something outrageous, you're using your family to get away from the punishment is such a cheap trick.

  " Let's go. You should rest. You must be tired." Ji Cheng walked to Zhao Ming and held on her arm, urging her to go and rest.

  He could see the sweat beads on her forehead and how pale her face looks at this moment. He was worried that this kind of incident might give her stress and she will feel sick.

  Zhao Ming looked at him and smiled seeing him worried about her.

  She still can't forget the way he has beaten Yu Kang for her. It feels so satisfying and happy.
