Chapter 442 - Even if that person is your mother? (2/2)

Their deep conversation made them more comfortable with each other.

Ji Cheng ordered Lu shi to bring their dinner and after a few minutes Lu shi brought a tray which was full of various dishes which made Zhao Ming salivate for them.

Zhao Ming grinned seeing so many items and got ready to eat and picked up her chopsticks.

Lu shi frowned because Zhao Ming again forgot that his majesty should eat the dishes first and then she could start eating.

However, Ji Cheng was now used to it and signaled Lu shi to go back. Lu shi bowed to him and left the room.

” Ahmm. It's so delicious.” Zhao Ming happily exclaimed when she tasted the tender meat.

Ji Cheng smiled seeing her dancing with her hands while eating. He chuckled and said, ” Then you should eat more.” he placed another dish of meat in her bowl.

She grinned and said,” I will.”

He chuckled because generally people respond with, ' You should eat as well' but she said, ' I will.'

During their dinner, Ji Cheng was staring at her with a faint smile on his face as she was gobbling all the food on the table.

” Ahh, I am full.” Zhao Ming rubbed her stomach after eating most of the dishes herself.

Ji Cheng pursed his lips as he glanced at the empty plates.

Of course, she is full. She has eaten almost 5 out of 8 dishes herself. There were around 8 dishes on the table excluding the side dishes.

” I think I should take a walk in the garden. Otherwise I will become fat in no time.” Zhao Ming lazily got up as she decided to go out and take a stroll.

Ji Cheng smiled and got up as well. Zhao Ming looked at him in confusion wondering why he got up.

” I am coming with you as well. ” he said with an expression on his face, ' Isn't it obvious?'

Zhao Ming was caught off guard because she was not expecting him to accompany her. She nodded unconsciously as they walked out of her chamber.

Zhao Ming was relaxed since she felt much better after talking to him about his past. Just as she has imagined, he is not a bad guy.

He was misled and many times misunderstood. She felt that he was like her in some ways.

She was misled due to her rebellious nature after experiencing betrayal from her close ones and has hurted the people who cared about her.

Even though it was not her intention to hurt them but in some ways she did hurt their feelings.

She turned to the side to glance at him and a smile appeared on her face seeing his attractive look. She has never even thought in her wild dream that one day she would be taking a walk in the garden with an Emperor.

” Zhao Ming, now since we have talked about many things, I want to tell you one more thing.” Ji Cheng said as he glanced at her.

Zhao Ming stopped in her steps when she heard his words. She became attentive and looked at him with curiosity.

Ji Cheng saw her curiosity and said,” Now since we have talked about things, I hope you don't keep anything in your heart. I want you to tell me everything and does not want to hide anything from me.” he said with seriousness and warmth in his eyes.

” Also, I want you to know that since you have the powers of the Empress, you don't need to worry about anything or anyone. I am giving you the assurance that no one can do harm to you or can take these powers from you.”

A smile appeared on Zhao Ming's face when she heard his words.  His words were indirectly hinting that she can deal with people in her way and doesn't have to be afraid of anyone.

” Even if that person is your mother? ” she said with a hint of curiosity in her voice.

She doesn't want to be this straightforward but for some reason she can't control her tongue and speak her mind in front him.
