Chapter 404 - Little Zhao
Zhao Ming took her clothes from Lu shi\'s hand and was about to go to the bathroom when Lu shi spoke, " Miss, his highness has said that you should go to the bathroom which is on the other end of the corridor. It is for the guests and it has a lock as well."
Lu shi was confused when Ji Cheng asked her to tell Zhao Ming about the other bathroom but she conveyed the message anyway.
Zhao Ming halted in her steps and turned to look at her. She pursed her lips because she understood what Ji Cheng meant.
Last night after Zhao Ming went to her room, Ji Cheng asked Wen Ru about the bathroom and at that time he found out that the bathroom near the bedroom was for Wen Ru only.
He didn\'t put a lock because he doesn\'t like to lock the bathroom and no one enters his bathroom anyway. There is another bathroom at the end of the hallway which was for the guests.
Though Ji Cheng couldn\'t understand his reasoning why he don\'t like the lock in the bathroom.
At that time Ji Cheng understood everything. Zhao Ming didn\'t know that there was another bathroom and took a bath in that bathroom which didn\'t even have the lock.
That\'s why he asked Lu shi to tell her to go to the bathroom on the other end of the hallway.
…
Zhao Ming felt her ears turning red when she realized that Ji Cheng doesn\'t want her to go to the same bathroom like yesterday.
She sighed and went to the bathroom which was on the other end of the hallway and this time she checked that it had a lock.
After getting ready, Zhao Ming went to the dining room where Wen Ru and Ji Cheng were already waiting for her.
She stood outside the room as she felt nervous seeing Ji Cheng sitting on the chair who looked intimidating yet charming at the same time.
She felt strange since she didn\'t see him last night. They didn\'t talk much when she got up from her nap in the evening and ate their dinner.
After dinner she went back earlier and didn\'t even see him before going to sleep. And even today, she didn\'t see him in the morning so she felt a little strange seeing him now.
Ji Cheng who was talking to Wen Ru? was interrupted when the maid announced Zhao Ming\'s arrival.
He looked over and saw Zhao Ming standing there. She was wearing the orange colored gown in which she looked more bright and cheerful.
He looked at her from top to bottom and his gaze stopped on her peachy lips. They were slightly tinted with rose color and looked more beautiful and fuller.
He swallowed his saliva as he controlled his urge to kiss those lips.
He cleared his throat and looked away in embarrassment. He kept reminding the scene where she was sleeping in the bathtub with her eyes closed and was fully naked.
Wen Ru didn\'t notice the atmosphere between them and welcomed Zhao Ming, " Little Zhao, you came on the right time. We were both waiting for you." he said as he gestured to her to sit down.
Zhao Ming was little surprised but smiled when she heard Wen Ru calling her, \' Little Zhao.\'
Previously, he has agreed call her sister, Her highness is too formal and she doesn\'t want to be this way with him
Since she feels comfortable around him that\'s why she wanted him to drop formalities and call her comfortably. Moreover, she is younger than him in terms of age so calling her Little Zhao is fine.
" Oh, really. Then it\'s good that I got ready quickly otherwise you will keep waiting for me." Zhao Ming joked as she sat down beside Ji Cheng.
Wen Ru chuckled and was about to say something when he felt the air getting chilly around him. He could feel the gloomy atmosphere around him.
He looked to the side and was startled seeing Ji Cheng glaring at him.
It was the first time he has witnessed Ji Cheng staring at him so dangerously. His gaze was implicitly swearing at him.
He felt goosebumps seeing his gaze. He pursed his lips and didn\'t say anything and just smiled stiffly at Zhao Ming.
.
…..
Ji Cheng who was glancing at Zhao Ming and her radiant smile was stunned when he heard Wen Ru calling Zhao Ming, \' Little Zhao.\'
He was already annoyed that these days, he is getting along quite well with her. Sometimes, Zhao Ming talks more with Wen Ru than him.
And now, Wen Ru called her Little Zhao from Sister Zhao. He kept crossing the line and was calling her so intimately.
Even he doesn\'t call her so intimately. Only recently, he started calling her Zhao Ming from Consort Zhao or the Empress.
But his brother keeps getting closer to her at the fastest speed than him.
…
Zhao Ming also witnessed Ji Cheng glaring at Wen Ru and smiled awkwardly. He doesn\'t leave even his own brother.
" Ahmm..Little Zh.. sister, are you planning to explore the local market after breakfast?" Wen Ru asked Zhao Ming as he gestured to the maid to serve the dishes.
He was about to call her Litter Zhao but stopped in the middle when he felt the air around her getting chilly. He knows why the atmosphere suddenly turned gloomy, that\'s why he changed the way he addressed her.
Zhao Ming smiled when she heard Wen Ru\'s words and chuckled lightly. She glanced at Ji Cheng before replying to him.
" Yes. I am thinking of visiting the local market before going to the palace."
Zhao Ming wanted to look around the area and wanted to see how the local market here works. She wanted to go out yesterday but Ji Cheng didn\'t allowed her to go out because of the incident with Yu Kang.
She didn\'t probe further because she understood as well. Since everyone saw what happened yesterday, she was feeling awkward to go out to look around.
However, since they have to return to Palace today, she wanted to look around for a while before going back.
