Chapter 160 - Enchanted performance. (2/2)

Zhao Ming unknowingly smiled.

She have imagined some strip dance or some lewd dance performance.

Don't know how but she had some serious kind of misperception towards the ancient men or one can say men.

Her previous traumatic encounter with the guy in high school left her making presumptions towards all men in the society.

That's why she had fought many times with Liwei because she believed that he was having an affair with Xinyi or cheating on her.

One because of her perception about men, another because of Xinyi's character and provocation.

She sighed in relief.

Though she was interested to see what Ji Cheng has prepared but she was happy that it was a cultural dance performance.

And throughout the Banquet she got some time noticing Ji Cheng, and got to know him.

Otherwise she doesn't get time to know him, because she was in her Chamber and he was in his.

She doesn't let him stay back. So they don't get time to know each other.

After the performance, the girl bowed in front of everyone.

Zhao Ming was so excited that she started clapping loudly after their performance. She has never seen something so beautiful.

Though she doesn't like traditional music and dance, because she finds it quite boring.

But today's performance was not only beautiful but enchanting. The music was sorrowful but it has some rays of hope.

Without lyrics, one can feel the music.

Everyone nodded at the girls who just performed, as they were in bowing position.

But Zhao Ming started clapping loudly.

Everyone looked towards her.

These rich and royal people will never clap for anyone as they have to maintain their poise and elegance.

They just nodded at them.

But she was not just clapping but doing it very loudly.

Suddenly the whole banquet went silent and one can only her hear her loud clapping voice.

Other people were clapping but in an elegant manner and those claps were for formality only.

The girls standing there smiled at Zhao Ming's heartwarming gesture.

Nothing is more touching than when your hard work is being appreciated.

Before Wen Xu could say anything, Ji Cheng also started clapping.

Zhao Ming who felt awkward because everyone was staring at her, she smiled awkwardly and want to stop clapping, when she saw that Ji Cheng started clapping with her.

.

.

He noticed that she sincerely liked the performance, not like others who were just fulfilling the formality.

He also saw others stare and Wen Xu's angry face, so he started clapping with her to share her happiness.

When he started clapping, other people looked at each other and started clapping as well.

' How could they sit silent when Emperor itself was praising the girls.'

The girls who just preformed were moved to tears by the applause they were receiving, they went in bowing position and started thanking everyone.

Xiao Li and Wen Xu also had no choice but to follow the suit.

Wen Xu gritted her teeth in annoyance.
