Chapter 753 - The Curse (28) (2/2)

He took a deep breath and placed a hand over hers, ” I..can't believe we're going to be parents.” he said in a trembling voice while clutching her hand in his.

Zhao Ming looked at his face and noticed his teary eyes. He was trying his best to not let those tears let down. The powerful-ruthless Emperor is emotional to the point that he is on the verge of crying. His weak side and the joy and surprise in his voice made her teary as well.

How long she had waited for him to talk to her. The day has finally come.

After Xie Ming announced that she is pregnant, she was shocked and worried as this was something she has never thought of. The thought of giving birth to a new life and taking care of it made her afraid and worried.

However, seeing his expressions, the insecurity inside her drifted away.

Ji Cheng closed his eyes and said in a low- quivering voice, ” I am sorry for not taking care of you. I..am sorry for being so mean to you. I...am sorry for being angry at you.”

She didn't say anything and rubbed his hand that was over the back of her hand.

” Rather than being angry at you, I was angry at myself that I vented on you by blaming you for everything. The guilt that Zhao Ming died because of me, was too much for me to handle. That's why I put all the blame on you.”

After pausing a little, he continued, ” It wasn't even your fault. You were truthful to me all the time, the moments we shared, the..nights we shared together, you were honest to me all the while. However, I failed to ensure you to make you feel secure enough for you to open your heart to me.”

” And even when I found out, I acted just like you feared. I am sorry for hurting you, for making you cry,” he said by looking into her eyes.

He pursed his lips and looked at her hesitantly, ” I will do my best to make you happy. Do you think I deserve a chance to redeem for my..mistakes?” he asked.

She pursed her lips and stared at him with a frown. ” Do you think you deserve one?” she asked indifferently.

His eyes wavered seeing her cold expressions. The happiness brewing in his eyes dimmed upon hearing her words. Yes. He doesn't deserve one.

How can he expect her to forgive him after what he has done? How can he ask her to go back and bring Zhao Ming back, when she was the one who was beside him when he needed a partner the most?

She was the woman he loved, she was the woman who made him realize what kind of person he is, she was the woman who became his addiction, yet he dared to claim that she is not his love, his wife.

Her lips curled up seeing his dimmed eyes and said in a low voice, ” If you want to redeem for your mistakes, make sure to treat me well. I am not a normal woman, I am a woman with mysterious charms you know.”

” You should feel lucky that you have me as your wife. As you can see I have many suitors in this world, yet I am ready to come along with you, leaving all the comforts of this world behind just to live in a place with no air conditioner, wifi, and phone,” she said proudly while putting her hair behind her ears.

Hearing her words, a bright smile crept onto his lips, ” I promise I will not let you disappoint. I will not only be the best husband but the best father as well. This child...we will do everything to become better parents for it.” he said with determination.

She laughed seeing his determined eyes and caressed his face with a smile, ” Yeah. If you didn't keep your promise, I will divorce you and will take half of your wealth in alimony.” she said with a meaningful smile, causing his eyes to widen in shock.

She chuckled seeing his face and pinched his cheeks, teasingly. ” How can a grown man like you be so cute?”
