Chapter 249 - I allow you to be as rude as you want (1/2)

After Feng Ju left with the old man, Ji Cheng walked towards Zhao Ming's bed without saying anything.

Zhao Ming looked at the man who was walking towards her bed and seems to have no intention to leave her room. She raised her brows in confusion because now the old man has also left and there is no need for him to stay back.

She wanted him to leave so that she can make a plan as to how she should ask the man about the strange things he said? She just can't ask directly that if he knows that she is Xie Ming, not Zhao Ming. It would be ridiculous if she did that.

However, he does not seem to have any intention to leave instead he went to her bed and patted her pillow and prepared to lay on the bed.

Her eyes widened in surprise as she walked in long strides towards him and said,” Your Highness, what are you doing?”

Ji Cheng who sat on the bed and was ready to lay on the bed looked up at her in confusion and fluttered his long eyelashes and casually replied, ” I am preparing to lie on the bed. I am tired and want to rest.” he said as a matter of fact.

Last night, he wasn't able to sleep because she was kicking and hugging him while sleeping and it was getting hard for him to just sleep like this. He controlled himself with much difficulty and only get a few hours of sleep which was not enough for his body to rest.

Even in the morning, he has to suffer torture from her as she was moving around too much while sleeping and also his mother and Xiao Li created a fuss in the early morning.

After that, he had to go for work and due to the series of events, he did not get the chance to rest even a bit. Now when he brought the doctor to check on Zhao Ming, though he does not like the result, however, he believed that she must not have any serious problems with her.

She seems better than before and he will get another doctor to check on her as he could not believe the words of Master Li. Now everyone has left, he wanted to rest for a while and want to straighten his back.

He was hell tired as the exhaustion was visible in his eyes and the dark circles could be seen under his eyes.

Zhao Ming didn't noticed his condition and could only see him lying on her bed like it was his own. She always felt uncomfortable sharing her bed with someone else.

She did not say much last night because he forced himself to sleep with her because she was sick. But now she was fine and there is no need for him to accompany her.

Moreover, she also wanted to sleep for a bit. She has eaten too much for lunch and there is nothing to do either. She wanted to take a nap for a while before going to meet the man and ask about the details that he knows.

However, she could not sleep with him around and laying on her bed especially when it's day time. In the night, it was completely dark and she didn't feel his existence much but in the morning she could see him clearly as the light was coming in the room from outside.

There is no electricity, so they use lanterns to keep the room lit and brighten. In the day time, the lanterns were not required as the sun rays brighten the room.

Zhao Ming stared at him for answering the question this way. She was speechless when she heard his answer. She didn't mean it that way. She wanted to know why he wasn't going to his room to sleep but was trying to sleep in her room?

She felt her patience losing as she took a deep breath and asked again trying hard to remain as polite as possible, ” I mean if you're tired than you should go and sleep in your bed. Your bed must be much bigger and better than mine. Moreover, how can I keep you in my room. What if Empress Dowager comes to know about this and will come at me again?” she spoke while gritting her teeth.

Ji Cheng sat on the bed with both hands placed on the bed supporting his body as he was tired to sit straight. However, she doesn't let him lay on the bed and keeps asking questions.
