Chapter 325 - Sent the matching jewelry. (1/2)

After Zhao Ming left to take a bath, Ji Cheng read his documents for a while and after that went to his chamber to get ready as well.

Now he wants to take a bath with cold water as well. He tried to focus on his documents but he couldn't do so.

He keeps remembering how beautiful she looks with her face scarlet red with embarrassment. Also, his heart beating becomes fast when he remembered how smooth her skin was when his lips brush by her nape.

As he left her chamber, he saw Lu shi who was coming back from the kitchen. Seeing him Lu shi bowed in front of him in greeting.

Ji Cheng looked at her and said, ” I am going to my Chamber to get ready. Tell Zhao Ming later that I will come to pick her up for the feast. Also, I will send you the jewelry for Zhao Ming to wear at today's feast. Don't forget to give her.” He instructed her as he left with his long strides.

Lu shi stared at him with her mouth open. Now the Emperor is giving her direct tasks as well. With Zhao Ming's relationship getting better with Ji Cheng, she was also getting tasks from the Emperor and this will make her feel superior in front of other servants as well.

Lu Shi bowed happily seeing Ji Cheng walking away.

...

When Zhao Ming was done taking a bath, she changed into her clothes for the night which was a yellow-colored gown and an orange-colored robe over it.

The color combination was her liking and she has matched this pair by using different pieces.

Originally, there was a bright and glittery dark yellow color robe over this gown but she used orange-colored robe from the other dress because it looked more beautiful with it.

The orange-colored robe was simple and elegant while the inner gown has some handmade embroidery and also expensive beads on the dress making it look royal.

After coming out of the bathroom, she went to her chamber and found the door half-open.

She stopped before the chamber and was hesitating to go inside. Her face was getting red just at the thought that Ji Cheng would be there.

She felt her whole body burning up when she remembered his shameless words. She took a deep breath and placed her cold hands over her burning face to calm down her nerves.

She can't forget what happened between them before she went to the bathroom. His shameless words were ringing in her ears making her feel weak in legs.

She finally gathered her courage and decided to go inside the chamber.

When she entered her chamber, she found no one in the room. Her expressions fell seeing no one in the room.

Just as she was wondering where Ji Cheng went, she heard a cheery voice behind her.

She turned around and found Lu Shi standing there with a tray in her hand.

” Miss, his highness has gone to his Chamber to get ready.” Lu shi said with a bright smile on her face.

She was so happy that her Miss was getting along well with His highness.

She was so glad to see how Ji Cheng was treating her Miss and he also gave her the powers that she deserves. Before when she didn't have any powers, everyone looked down on them.

Now no one will dare to look down on her Miss. Also, she can live in the palace with her head held high as well.

When Zhao Ming heard Lu shi's words, her expressions fell. She pursed her lips and felt a little disappointed.

She was expecting to see him here waiting for her but he went to his room.

'It's not that I am missing him or dying to see him, but how can he leave just like that?'

She bit her lower lip as a frown appeared on her face.

” Did I say anything? Why are you speaking nonsense when I didn't ask you?” Zhao Ming pouted as she pretended to be not interested.

Seeing the disappointment on Zhao Ming's face, Lu shi smiled brightly. Even if she tried to hide her interest, she could feel the disappointed look in her eyes.

” Miss, Master has asked me to relay his message. He said that after getting ready, he will come to take you with him to the feast. He asked you to wait for him.” she said with a smile on her face.

Ji Cheng picking up Zhao Ming himself is a big deal. This is not a public event and only Xiao Li and Wen Ru will be there other than Zhao Ming and Ji Cheng.

However, despite only a few people attending, Ji Cheng is coming to pick her up.

This means that he is giving her face and it will also show others that Zhao Ming is not an unwanted Empress.

'His Highness loves her Miss, that's why he is treating Zhao Ming this way. ' Lu shi smiled seeing Zhao Ming happy. She was glad that her Miss has finally got her happiness.

The relationship between her and Ji Cheng is improving.
