Chapter 98 - Dirty Thoughts... (1/2)

When Zhao Ming hugged Wen Xu, everyone was dumbfounded with the drama in front of them. Even Ji Cheng was looking at Zhao Ming confusingly.

Before she was used to get intimidated around his mother, she was polite but scared. She never expressed her feelings in front of his Mother before but now she was suddenly confessing her love for his mother in front of everyone that too while crying.

Everyone looked at Zhao Ming and this scene can be only explained with one reason. All the guards looked at each other, Ji Cheng fixed his eyes on Zhao Ming and Xiao Li was watching Ji Cheng from the side.

The only reason for Zhao Ming to behave like this is that..... ' She is not in her right mind. Yess. She must be hallucinating. After all, she woke up more than a week later from the coma and she saw Empress Dowager in front of her.'

' She must be seeing her biological mother that died when she was young. She must be seeing her in the Empress Dowager. That's why she was crying like this. '

All the guards and servants watching from the side felt sad thinking about it. They looked at each other and nodded in understanding as if they can understand each other's thoughts without speaking.

On the other hand, Wen Xu was bending behind trying to manage her balance. Zhao Ming was clinging to her like a koala. It's been a few minutes that she was still clinging to her like this.

Now Wen Xu's back started to hurt. All the motherly feelings that she had few minutes back for Zhao Ming disappeared. Again, she assumed it to be another trick of Zhao Ming to gain everyone's sympathy.

She must be wanted to gain everyone's sympathy and wanted to make her Villain in front of everyone. When she remembered the way Ji Cheng questioned her for this b*Tch, she felt like her body was fuming in anger.

All the love and gentleness vanish from her eyes and disgust took place of it.

When Xiao Li saw the change of emotions in Wen Xu's eyes, she felt delighted. A moment back when she noticed gentleness in her eyes, she got scared that all her work might be wasted.

But now she was relieved. All this time, she had not wasted her time on Empress Dowager. She is one of those people who are easy to please but one needs to leave all their dignity and morals to please them. They should be shameless and knows how to butter up people.

And that's what Xiao Li was expert in. No matter whatever Zhao Ming does, but she can't compromise with her dignity or will never go around faking try to impress people.

....

Ji Cheng also saw the changing reaction of his mother. He understood what she was thinking. Before he could separate Zhao Ming from her. She forcefully separated herself from Zhao Ming and pushed her with all her strength.

As Zhao Ming was already weak and she was in a daze, with the use of force she was pushed back and staggered to keep her balance. But she failed.

When she thought she was going to fell, she closed her eyes, afraid of pain. She was waiting to be hit by ground and feel the enormous pain but it didn't come.

Instead, she felt a hand around her waist, it was warm and firm. She slightly opened her one eye slowly, then seeing everyone's shocked reaction she opened both eyes, to see what happened.
