Chapter 404 - Little Zhao (2/2)

” Oh, really. Then it's good that I got ready quickly otherwise you will keep waiting for me.” Zhao Ming joked as she sat down beside Ji Cheng.

Wen Ru chuckled and was about to say something when he felt the air getting chilly around him. He could feel the gloomy atmosphere around him.

He looked to the side and was startled seeing Ji Cheng glaring at him.

It was the first time he has witnessed Ji Cheng staring at him so dangerously. His gaze was implicitly swearing at him.

He felt goosebumps seeing his gaze. He pursed his lips and didn't say anything and just smiled stiffly at Zhao Ming.

.

…..

Ji Cheng who was glancing at Zhao Ming and her radiant smile was stunned when he heard Wen Ru calling Zhao Ming, ' Little Zhao.'

He was already annoyed that these days, he is getting along quite well with her. Sometimes, Zhao Ming talks more with Wen Ru than him.

And now, Wen Ru called her Little Zhao from Sister Zhao. He kept crossing the line and was calling her so intimately.

Even he doesn't call her so intimately. Only recently, he started calling her Zhao Ming from Consort Zhao or the Empress.

But his brother keeps getting closer to her at the fastest speed than him.

…

Zhao Ming also witnessed Ji Cheng glaring at Wen Ru and smiled awkwardly. He doesn't leave even his own brother.

” Ahmm..Little Zh.. sister, are you planning to explore the local market after breakfast?” Wen Ru asked Zhao Ming as he gestured to the maid to serve the dishes.

He was about to call her Litter Zhao but stopped in the middle when he felt the air around her getting chilly. He knows why the atmosphere suddenly turned gloomy, that's why he changed the way he addressed her.

Zhao Ming smiled when she heard Wen Ru's words and chuckled lightly. She glanced at Ji Cheng before replying to him.

” Yes. I am thinking of visiting the local market before going to the palace.”

Zhao Ming wanted to look around the area and wanted to see how the local market here works. She wanted to go out yesterday but Ji Cheng didn't allowed her to go out because of the incident with Yu Kang.

She didn't probe further because she understood as well. Since everyone saw what happened yesterday, she was feeling awkward to go out to look around.

However, since they have to return to Palace today, she wanted to look around for a while before going back.
