Chapter 479 - I Believe You No Matter What. (Revised)
After they were done eating, Zhao Ming stood up and walked around the room to look at the painting on the wall.
Ji Cheng also stood up and walked to her. He stood beside her and looked at her from the side.
" Zhao Ming, earlier you asked Xiao Li about how she found out about Ah Leng. You asked if she was keeping an eye on you. Do you have any suspicion on her?" Ji Cheng as he stood beside her looking at the painting in front.
Zhao Ming was stunned when he suddenly asked her this question. She pursed her lips and thought for a while.
She took a deep breath and said," Will you believe my words even if I don\'t have anything to prove at this moment?"
Ji Cheng\'s brows twitched when he heard her question. He turned to look at her and stared into her eyes.
" What do you think? "
Zhao Ming smiled when she heard his question. She sighed and said, " Last time when I went to meet Master Lu in his eyes room, I saw someone lurking around the room. There was a person who was following me and was trying to hear our conversation. And that was Consort Xiao Li\'s maid."
" I saw her following me many times like this."
Ji Cheng\'s face darkened when he heard her words.
" Is that the same girl you told me about before during the feast? "
She nodded and said, " At that time, Consort Xiao Li claimed that she doesn\'t know anything and it\'s not true but I think she knows it very well. I just didn\'t have the evidence to prove that."
" Even now when I am saying things like this, because I think I don\'t need evidence for everything to prove myself, at least in front of you."
" Then why didn\'t you tell me this earlier? You could have said this on her face. If you had asked for inquiry I would have taken some action. I didn\'t interfere at that time because I thought that it\'s just between both of you." His fists clenched tightly.
Zhao Ming was slightly surprised seeing how agitated he looked.
" Ermm.. because I didn\'t have any proof. So I was not sure if I should tell you or not." She shrugged her shoulders casually.
She wasn\'t thinking to tell him because she has nothing to prove her words. She is not a fool to say such things without any proof.
" Then why did you tell me now? You still don\'t have the evidence." His lips curled up in a smile as he stared at her.
Zhao Ming was caught off guard when she heard his words.
She pursed her lips and realised that he was right. Why was she telling him now?
" Erm..I don\'t know. I just feel like, you will believe me?" She looked at him unsurely.
She didn\'t realize this but her relationship with him has gotten more comfortable and she has started to trust him and started to open up to him.
It was a very strange feeling for her. It\'s been years since she felt so comfortable and close to someone.
When you get betrayed from your closest ones, your heart automatically builds up a wall around him to protect you from getting hurt again.
But it seems like that the wall around her heart has started to break.
Ji Cheng smiled when he heard her words.
" Yes. I will believe you no matter what. So please do tell me if something like this happens again. Don\'t just keep it to your heart like always." He patted her head while saying this.
" Also, If you found something strange then tell me right away. You don\'t need to go in circles to say something."
She felt a surge of emotions in her heart hearing those words.
\' I will believe you no matter what.\' This was the biggest statement she has ever heard. Because by now no one believed her words if she didn\'t have any evidence.
" Yes. I will tell you if anything happened in the future." She nodded and said with a bitter smile on her face.

On Saturday,
After meeting with Liwei\'s friends the other day, the days went by in a blink as Xie Ming stayed at home studying her script while Liwei was busy with his work.
After getting ready Xie Ming looked at the time. It\'s already 10:15 in the morning.
" Ting."
She checked her phone and saw Doctor Su Jin\'s message.
" I will be there by 11. Be ready."
She sighed and went downstairs to join Liwei for breakfast.
" Why does Doctor Su Jin want you to meet her Grandfather?" Liwei asked as he held the chair for her..
" I don\'t know as well. She said that she told everything to her grandfather and he wanted to meet me. I couldn\'t deny her seeing the way she insisted."
She started eating her toast and said, " Moreover, I think she is a very interesting personality." She chuckled while sipping her tea.
Liwei frowned and said," But you have to be careful. You\'re going to meet a person about whom you don\'t even know much. I don\'t feel good about it."
She looked at him and sighed. She held his hands and said, " Liwei, don\'t worry. I promise I will take care of myself. I won\'t let myself be in a dangerous situation again."
She was serious about her words because that\'s why she is training so hard. She still felt embarrassed that even knowing martial arts, she let herself get kidnapped like this and couldn\'t even protect herself.
He sighed and said, " Fine. Go ahead. But don\'t forget to call me or message me as soon as you reach there. You should take the driver as well."
" No it\'s okay. Su Jin said that she will drive, so there is no need for the driver."
Liwei raised his brows seeing the way she was calling Doctor Su Jin by her name. Seems like they have gotten too close in the past days
He shook his head and focused on his breakfast.
….
After breakfast, Liwei left for the office.
After a few minutes, Su Jin also arrived.
" Are you ready? Shall we leave now?" Su Jin asked Xie Ming as soon as she got out of the car.
Xie Ming who was standing outside the villa was surprised to see Su Jin in a sunflower yellow flower dress which made her look more youthful.
She was not wearing much makeup and was wearing her goggles.
Xie Ming was shocked because it was the first time she had seen her wearing such bright clothes that too with no makeup.
" Ermm.. I am ready. But aren\'t you coming in for a while? You should at least drink some tea or coffee."
Su Jin shook her head and said, " No it\'s fine. We should hurry so that we can reach there by lunch."
Xie Ming carried her bag and sat in the passenger seat.
She looked at Su Jin from the side and pursed her lips.
She realized that the first impression is not always the last impression.Sometimes, a person is more than that first impression.
