Chapter 684 - The thing. (2/2)
Xie Mei was tired, but she still followed her. What else can she do?
' Worry? You're here, that is my worry.' she gritted her teeth but smiled forcefully and said, ” No. I am not worried at all. However, I just hope you can send His Majesty to our chambers to visit as well. You always spend nights with him, it's not fair for us, is it? We are his consorts, after all, however, we are being treated poorly than concubines. At least they get to see the faces of their man sometimes.”
Zhao Ming pursed her lips upon hearing her words. She doesn't feel good when someone talks about it. But can she reject her request? No. They are indeed Ji Cheng's consorts. Be it marriage alliance or whatever. They are her legal competitor in love.
She sighed and said, ” I will ask him. However, I can't be sure. It's his choice if he wants to visit here or not. You know, it depends on his Majesty's will to come here.”
Zhao Ming walked to the small wooden table in the center and sat on the chair. She picked up the teacup and took a sip of it while asking some random questions.
Xie Mei was uninterested but she still tried to not ignore her directly.
Xie Mei was drinking her tea when she accidentally spilled her tea over herself, which soaked her dress.
”Ah…” she grimaced in pain and immediately stood up due to the burning pain.
The tea was hot and it must have burned her.
” Consort Xie, you okay? Let me find a cloth for you to wipe it.” Zhao Ming stood up to find some cloth for her.
They have already sent the maids out and right now, only two of them are in the chamber.
Zhao Ming worriedly stood up and looked around to find a clean cloth to wipe her dress. She walked towards her wooden closet to find something for her to clean up.
Xie Mei's eyes widened in shock when she saw that she opened her closet.
” Zhao Ming, what are you doing? How can you….” She panicked and tried to walk towards the closet but stopped when she realized that her dress got stuck by the wooden prick in the chair.
She gritted her teeth and tried to free her dress from the chair. On the other hand, Zhao Ming was not a bit surprised by her tone. Xie Mei has always been rude and an asshole.
Right now, she was just being normal. She ignored her words and continued to rummage her closet.
” Oh, here it is.” Zhao Ming's eyes lit up seeing a white cloth that she can use to wipe Xie Mei's dress. She pulled the white cloth which was hidden under the clothes. However, just as she was about to close the closet when a silver-made box decorated with detailed flower embroidery fell on the ground causing her off guard.
However, the next moment her expressions turned solemn when she saw the thing inside it. The box opened due to the force and the thing inside it came in open.
Zhao Ming was speechless and stunned seeing the thing while Xie Mei's expressions turned pale as she had seen a ghost.
