Chapter 248 - Stay here for a night (2/2)
Ji Cheng who was unaware of the situation and her real motive to let the man stay felt that she wanted the man to stay because she wanted to talk to him and know about her past. Though he does not trust the old man however he could not reject Zhao Ming who was requesting him earnestly.
He just looked at the old man in front of him and said in a heavy and domineering voice, ” Master Li, you have come a long way to visit us, so it will be a waste to go like this. Please stay a night here and give us a chance to show our hospitality to you.”
Zhao Ming who was standing by his side nodded her head frivolously and said, ” Yes, You should stay here and talk with me. I have many things that I want to ask you. After all, she is...I mean I am like your daughter, aren't I? So you should give me a chance to serve you. You can't go like this without giving me a chance to welcome you and serve you.” she desperately smiled and was clenching her fist waiting for his response.
She almost said that she was like his daughter. She was talking about Zhao Ming but almost forgot for a second that she was now a Zhao Ming.
The old man didn't say anything and slightly smirked at her seeing her try so hard to make him stay a night at the palace. He didn't say anything to her instead turned to Ji Cheng and nodded his head slightly, ” If his Highness, wanted me to stay here, then how can I reject your request? I will stay the night here, ” he said calmly.
Zhao Ming felt glad when she heard his words. It was a happy moment for her because this stubborn man finally agreed to do something that she wants.
Ji Cheng nodded at him and waved Feng Ju to come over. When Feng Ju came to him, he ordered to prepare a room for Master Li and take him to rest for a while.
At that time, Zhao Ming didn't say anything and let the old man take a rest because she was planning to go later to talk to him alone.
She wanted to know why that man was behaving this way with her and does he knows something about her or does he knows that she was someone else and how does she come here?
This was an unfamiliar place for her and he was the only person who was behaving strangely seeing her and seems to know something. So how can she miss the opportunity to meet him.
She sighed in relief when she saw Feng Ju take the old man away with her.
Ji Cheng who was standing beside her, saw her sighing like this and raised his brows in amusement. He has no idea what she was planning but seeing her being so worked up and desperate he understood that it was not something normal.
However, he could not point out what's wrong with her? He didn't dwell on the situation much and said to her, ” You don't need to take the words of the man to heart. I believe in you.” his voice was low and tender.
Zhao Ming who was looking at the back of the man who was walking far away suddenly heard a manly deep voice from behind and turned to look at him when she felt that he was standing too close to her.
She could sense the warmth of his body and if she moved a little she will bump to his chest.
His words rang in her ears,' I believe in you' which left her face turn red in embarrassment.
She somehow felt bad when she heard his words. Because, indeed, she was not his Zhao Ming and she was just a girl who came into this world and was now in his wife's body.
She could not comment on their relationship but the way she has observed him does not appear that he was a bad guy, instead, she felt that there might be some problems and misunderstanding between Zhao Ming and him.
She does not about their relationship in detail that's why she could not comment on that. However, he does not seem like a bad guy to her.
