Chapter 617 - Arent we going to bed? (1/2)

Zhao Ming was surprised hearing Ji Cheng's concerned words. She was expecting him to stop her from working but his concerned reaction was a bit surprising to her.

Her lips curled up in a smile as she said, ” It's fine, I can manage both. Moreover consort Jia shi is also there to help with the harem work. Because of her, my work has reduced to almost half. ”

Ji Cheng nodded and didn't say anything afterward.

Even Wen Ru was also surprised seeing that Ji Cheng was not reacting the way he had expected.

In the end, Zhao Ming agreed to Wen Ru's proposal to help him manage his account books and also, produce items to sell in his shop.

She was pleased that she can finally do the work she enjoys the most. She has learned business and can manage it well, however, her main interest is in the fashion field.

She loves to create new items and products herself. And this will be a great opportunity for her to create new items which she can sell in Wen Ru's shop.

Moreover, Ji Cheng has also supported her idea to work with Wen Ru. She was pleased that Ji Cheng is different from the other men in this world.

He is not only very caring but supportive as well.

...

Wen Ru left the chamber after having a sumptuous dinner with Ji Cheng and Zhao Ming.

He was relieved that Zhao Ming had agreed to manage his accounts and this reduced a great burden from his shoulders.

After the dinner, Zhao Ming decided to take a bath to refresh herself. She was rummaging through her closet to find her purple-colored nightgown which was given to her by Ji Cheng.

That nightdress is more comfy and comfortable.

” Ah, here it is.” She picked up her dress which she found deep under the heap of clothes. She made a mess of the clothes which had been neatly arranged by Lu shi. But she wasn't guilty a bit.

” What are you doing?”

” Ah, you scared me!”

She screamed in surprise when Ji Cheng suddenly approached her from behind and whispered in her ears in a low voice. [ Read this novel on W e b n o v e l . c o m ( remove spaces).

He didn't make any voice when he came behind her and hugged her from behind all of a sudden because of which she almost dropped her dress.

She patted her chest while trying to calm herself as she replied, ” I was just searching for this nightgown to wear. But what are you trying to do here? Were you trying to kill me from the startle?”

His expressions turned dark as he stared at her with his cold expressions.

She pursed her lips and avoided his fierce gaze.

' Does he have to be so serious about it? It was just a joke'

” What is it?” She asked again when he didn't say anything.

” I am tired.”

”-_-”

She was confused hearing his words. If he is tired then go and sleep.

” So?”

” I want to take a bath.” He said with indifferent expressions.

She nodded and said, ” Then go ahead. I will take one after you.” She prepared to walk towards the bed when he grabbed her wrist and forced her to stay in one place.
