Chapter 381 - Doesnt he have anything more to ask? (1/2)

Zhao Ming was startled when she heard his question. Her body froze hearing his words which made her body go stiff.

She cautiously raised her head and looked into his eyes which seemed to be looking at her with an unexplainable gaze.

She pursed her lips and wanted to get up when she realized that he had loosened his grasp around her back. She looked at him and felt uncomfortable under his gaze.

She didn't wait for a minute and got up from him. When she got up in a hurry, she felt a cramp in her neck.

' Ah, it hurts. Wasn't Zhao Ming active enough? Then why does my body feel so stiff? Is it because I don't do anything the whole day?'

She wondered if because of her laziness, this body has started to get tense.

A frown appeared on her face when she felt a sharp pain in her neck. She raised her hand to massage her neck but before she could do so, Ji Cheng had already sat up and stretched his hand to touch her neck.

Zhao Mng was stunned for a minute when he stretched his hand towards her. She dodged his touch due to her reflexes.

Ji Cheng's gaze darkened when he saw her actions.

Zhao Ming felt slightly guilty seeing his gloomy expressions.

Ji Cheng reached out again and this time Zhao Ming didn't avoid his touch.

She was stunned because Ji Cheng was massaging her neck. The Emperor of the Ji Dynasty was massaging her neck?

' What an honor.'

Ji Cheng didn't say anything to her and started massaging her neck.

Zhao Ming turned his back to him so that he could massage her neck properly.

She trembled when his cold hands came in contact with her skin. She felt relaxed because he was using the correct amount of force.

She closed her eyes and enjoyed his massage. Ji Cheng didn't say anything and was massaging her neck.

His gaze faltered when she gathered her hair and pulled them to the front. Her pearl white slender neck came into his sight.

His palms started feeling hot.

When Zhao Ming has thought that Ji Cheng forgot about his question and was started to relax,

At that moment, Ji Cheng spoke again.

” You didn't answer my question.”

Zhao Ming opened her eyes in shock and was bewildered because she has no idea how she should reply to this question.

” Ahm, your highness, I am not sure what you're trying to ask? Of course, I didn't get my memories yet, otherwise wouldn't I have informed you before about it? ” She stuttered while lying to him.

She felt guilty because the truth is she does not have memories. After all, she is not Zhao Ming. She was panicking inwardly because she was worried if he had found out something.

' Did that old man tell him about something?' She remembered about the Old man who came to check on her earlier and was also Zhao Ming's uncle as well.

….

Ji Cheng's hands paused which were massaging Zhao Ming's neck.

” Oh.” he didn't say anything else and just casually replied and continued massaging.

Zhao Ming: ” - _-”

Zhao Ming was puzzled when she heard his one-word response.

' That's it? Doesn't he have anything more to ask?'

” Your highness, why did you ask that question?” she cautiously asked him while turning around to face him.
