Chapter 409 - She needs to show her, who is the boss here. (1/2)

Zhao Ming pursed her lips as she was trying to control her laughter because  Xiao Li's expression was too funny.

She came to degrade her but Wen Ru didn't give her any chance to do so.

Xiao Li brought Wen Xu to the entrance because she wanted to show Zhao Ming that even if Ji Cheng is on her side, she has Wen Xu with her.

And she can't get away from Wen Xu's wrath. But her plan totally failed when Wen Ru distracted Wen Xu's attention.

” We should go in now. Empress Dowager, we just came from a journey, so if you want to talk, then at least talk inside.” Ji Cheng said as he pulled Wen Ru from Empress Dowager's arms and asked her to talk inside.

They were talking while standing and he saw earlier that Zhao Ming was flinching while standing.

Her legs might have gone sore due to being in sitting position for long. That's why he doesn't want to talk while standing anymore.

Wen Xu glared at Ji Cheng but nodded anyway. She knows that she can't say anything to him.

” You can go and freshen up. And come to my chamber quickly. I want to talk to you about something.” Wen Xu's expressions turned stern as she said her words.

” You also come with him” Wen Xu looked at Zhao Ming and asked her to come as well.

Zhao Ming pursed her lips as she nodded. She can see from Xiao Li's expressions that she has said something to Wen Xu about her.

Wen Ru shut up his mouth and stood there while glancing at Zhao Ming. He was worried that she might have taken Wen Xu's attitude to heart.

But to his surprise she was nodding like she has no problems with it. She was acting very differently from her past self.

She doesn't seem to be bothered about it at all.

…

Zhao Ming went to her chamber to freshen up. Ji Cheng was trying to follow her but Zhao Ming stopped him because if he went to her chamber then Feng Ju would have to get his clothes for him to her chamber.

That's why she asked him to go to his chamber and freshen up.

When Zhao Ming came back to her room, she sighed as she plopped on her bed. She wanted to rest on her  bed peacefully but as soon as she arrived at the palace she was welcomed by Wen Xu and Xiao Li.

She has thought that the next few days would be peaceful for her but seems like her life won't go as she has planned.

” Miss, do you want to take a bath? Should I prepare water for you?” Lu shi asked as she placed the items that Zhao Ming had brought from the market.

Zhao Ming glanced at the items and smiled. The time she spent at the market was the best time of her life.

She has never enjoyed so much in her life. She felt so much pleasure while shopping in that market that she didn't have while she used to shop in shopping malls.

After she took a bath and was standing in front of the mirror, rubbing her hair from the towel.

” What is it?”
