Chapter 767 - War or Brothel? (2/2)
Ji Cheng pursed his lips and said, ” Who are you? You can't be Zhao Ming, I mean Xie Ming. She never acts like this.”
” Zhao Ming, did...did you return to your body?” he asked, afraid that after the ritual, they have changed bodies again and have returned to their original bodies.
”.....”
Zhao Ming's expressions hardened upon hearing his words. She glared at him and asked in an icy-indifferent tone which caused the temperature in the room to decrease miraculously, ” You seem to be happy about it!” she commented making him stiffen at her sudden interrogative tone.
” Oh?” Ji Cheng blinked when he heard her words in which she enunciated on every word slowly, making it even more chilling.
” No...I wasn't-
” Hah. Do you think I can't be gentle and nice to others? What do you think I am? Am I a heartless person to think about myself all the time and ignore others?”
” Do you think that only the real Zhao Ming can be gentle and act like a mother-goddess, then what I am? A villainess who always tortures the weak and laughs crazily upon seeing others in pain?” she asks coldly without stopping in a way to catch her breath.
Ji Cheng's mouth fell open when she saw her characters changing from weak rabbit to blood-thirsty beast. She is Zhao Ming indeed.
Her ferocious change made it clear to him that she is Zhao Ming and hasn't changed back. However, seeing her changing attitude like she was changing clothes is surprising, now he understood the words that Jia shi has told him before coming to the chamber.
” Your Majesty, Zhao Ming is over 12 weeks pregnant now. Pregnancy not only affects the mother's physical condition but mental as well. Along with feeling nauseous and tired all time, she might look different as a person as well.”
” She might get angry at you at one moment, and at the other, she will be crying. These things cannot be controlled with medicine nor can be treated. It's normal in pregnancy. So you have to be understanding and not aggravate her.”
Recalling Jia shi's words and seeing Zhao Ming's ferocious glare as if she will eat him alive, he understood. It's better to seal his mouth shut, he might be an Emperor who has returned from the bloodiest war, but in front of her, he is just Ji Cheng...her husband and soon going to be a father.
'Let's get through this with patience.' he took a deep breath and listened to the sharp words throwing his way.
” Since I am pregnant, do you think that I have changed? Do you not like me anymore? Did you find another woman while you were out in the war? Don't tell me you brought another consort for me? ” She gasped in shock thinking about how he brought Xiao Li after the war.
Suddenly the atmosphere changed and she started sobbing while questioning him.
”....”
Since her crying like this, he felt like crying too. He was hoping for some romantic moments with her but why was he being questioned as if he went to the brothel than the war?
Zhao Ming felt her heart ripping in heartache as the emotions were taking over her, making her act like crazy and she only wanted to cry and cry. The deep emotions from the nightmare that she just had and the overwhelming emotions of his return were taking over her sanity.
As she was crying, while not knowing why she was crying, she suddenly felt a pair of lips clashing over hers, making her stop in an instant. Her eyes widened as she looked at Ji Cheng's face from close and those eyelashes looked even longer and deeper with his eyes closed.
Seeing that she stopped crying and wasn't angry at him, the corner of his lips stretched into a smile as he whispered against her lips, ” Did you forgot to close your eyes again? Don't tell me you want to keep staring at my face while kissing?”
” Hmm?” Zhao Ming was surprised upon hearing his words. These words seem similar, her ears turned crimson due to embarrassment as she immediately shut her eyes close and surrendered to his slow-tickling kiss.
