Chapter 370 - Back Hug. (1/2)

Zhao Ming couldn't control her emotions anymore and started walking towards Ji Cheng.

Ji Cheng stood up and pulled Yu Kang up to beat him more and was holding him by his collar, he froze when a pair of hands came into his contact and hugged him from behind.

He felt Zhao Ming sliding her hands from behind and hugged him from back, she placed her face against his back and murmured in a low voice, ” Stop it. Don't hit him anymore otherwise he will die.”

She wanted to stop him not because she was worried about Yu Kang whose face has turned red and purple in bruises but because Ji Cheng's fists were also bleeding slightly due to beating her with so much force.

' Why does he have to waste his energy on such a sc.u.mbag?'

Ji Cheng was still holding Yu Kang by his collar. He was so stunned that he suddenly released his grasp on his collar and Yu Kang plopped on the ground miserably.

Ji Cheng's hand froze in the air. He was shocked rather than surprised by Zhao Ming's reaction.

By now, she was running away from his touch and was finding ways to avoid him. Even though that day she showed initiative by kissing him on his adam apple but after that, she started avoiding him again.

He wanted to hug her to sleep but was afraid to upset her but now… she hugged him herself.

Her soft body was against his back and he could feel her warmth on his back.

Feng Ju saw Zhao Ming hugging him from the back. He was shocked as the Empress hugged his highness in front of everyone.

His mouth opened in shock but he used his intelligence and pulled Yu Kang away to let him live.

Otherwise, if he stayed there any longer, Yu Kang would die for sure. And his future does not seem to be bright either because he has said such disgusting words about the Empress.

There is no way the Emperor would let him live. He could have lived if he hadn't said anything to Empress and would be charged only with embezzlement and defying the Empress.

But now the punishment won't be as light as before.

While he was dragging Yu Kang away, he looked down and saw his face which has become unrecognizable.

He has become unconscious from all the punches from Ji Cheng because his every punch is quite powerful.

He works out almost daily on top of martial arts, and archery. He is the most outstanding man in the country because as an Emperor he has to learn everything.

….

Zhao Ming didn't care about everyone's gazes and didn't realize what she was doing.

In the heat of the moment, she walked to him and hugged him from behind. She was overwhelmed by the emotions and couldn't hold herself anymore.

JI Cheng didn't move an inch as she hugged him. He held onto his breath from her sudden action of intimacy.

Wen Ru who was standing on the side was shocked as well. No one has ever hugged someone in the public before let alone the Empress.

The initiative of physical intimacy in public by women is not appreciative. It's not a big deal for Xie Ming but every era has its rules and limitations.

And hugging and kissing in public is not so common at this time that's why everyone was shocked because she hugged him suddenly.

People surrounding the shop who were looking at the argument earlier were shocked when they saw this scene.

Their mouths opened in shock and some ladies even shut the eyes of their children.

They started whispering seeing this and this small step taken by Zhao Ming caused an uproar in the surrounding.

After a few minutes, when Zhao Ming calmed down and opened her eyes, Ji Cheng's sturdy back came into her sight.
