Eternal Love: A Love Story Chapter 232 – Don’t forget that.

Ji Dynasty. 

Zhao Ming and Ji Cheng went into his study followed by Wen Ru and Xiao Li. 

Ji Cheng held Zhao Ming’s hand to support her in walking which surprised her. Though she is now used to walking a little in this long dress unless she has to climb stairs or walk on a rocky path. 

But the palace was perfectly fine for her to walk as it has neither stairs nor an uncertain path. However, she still let him hold her hand because Xiao Li was following them and she could not leave this chance to burn her to death. 

When they reached the study which has a round table in the middle surrounded by a few chairs for guests. 

Though it usually has two chairs, however, Feng Ju has prepared the other two chairs for Xiao Li and Zhao Ming. 

When Zhao Ming entered his study, her mouth was open in awe. Her eyes widened in excitement seeing the large rooms which were their so-called study and it was ridiculously artistic and beautiful. 

She still couldn’t be used to their luxurious yet casual living. Though she didn’t come from the lower or middle class in the 21st century however she felt very lower in this place. 

Jin’s were the most wealthy and powerful family in the country however their wealth and luxurious lifestyle cannot be matched with this Ji Empire. 

Even their study room which is used only to deal with work and ministers but it was ridiculously large, filled with an immense amount of books and paintings and porcelains. 

Everything in the room was artistic and carved with extreme care. She looked at the pen stand which was placed at the desk in the room which Ji Cheng uses and it was carved with figures and flowers on it. 

If this single pen was sold at the exhibition then she could easily earn millions from it. Her eyes were lit bright seeing all the antique items in the room. 

It was so precious that she doesn’t even dare to touch these items.

‘ What if she breaks them? These items are so expensive that she could even lose her life in exchange for these items.’ 

Zhao Ming forgot that she does not come alone and left Ji Cheng’s room when she entered the room and started roaming around alone while looking at every single item and painting in the room. 

Ji Cheng was speechless when Zhao Ming withdrew from his hand just to roam around. 

But he didn’t stop her instead he was amused by seeing the surprised and shocked expression on her face whenever she sees any painting or vase. 

Xiao Li and Wen Ru followed them to the study and saw Zhao Ming casually roaming around like she was in a garden. 

Wen Ru was surprised and amused to see Zhao Ming who was normally an elegant and calm person was behaving very different from her personality. 

He was confused about what is so special about the study. 

Though the study room in the palace is more extravagant but it is not to the extent that she has to be this shocked. 

However, he considered that she does not have her memory and recently woke up from the coma, so it might be surprising for her to behave this way. 

It was still very amusing and interesting to see her behaving this way because he has seen many women who always eat less, speak less and always care about their so-called noble image and elegance. 

However, Zhao Ming was totally different and instantly catches one’s eye. 

Xiao Li entered the room behind Wen Ru but he was standing at the door still blocking her way. She got annoyed and stretched her head to see what is so interesting that they’re both Ji Cheng and Wen Ru was standing like fools. 

Her eyes narrowed and hands tightened into a fist seeing that they’re watching Zhao Ming who was stupidly looking at the things in the study. 

‘ What is so interesting about the fool who is looking at the normal things with such interest and amusement?’ she snorted and said in a light voice,

” Master Wen, why are you standing here? Let’s go in,” she said while gritting her teeth. 

She was annoyed by how they are giving all attention to Zhao Ming who does not deserve all this. 

Wen Ru came out of his trance when he heard Xiao Li’s words and cleared his throat when he realized that he was staring at Zhao Ming intently. 

He did not say anything and went towards the table in the middle of the room with Ji Cheng and sat on the chair on Ji Cheng’s left with waiting for Xiao Li. 

Ji Cheng sat in the middle while Wen Ru sat on the chair on its left. 

Xiao Li’s eyes shone when she saw that Ji Cheng’s right side was empty and Zhao Ming was still strolling around. 

She hurriedly walked to the table while keeping her manners in mind and was about to sit on the chair on his right when she heard Ji Cheng’s cold words. 

” Xiao Li, what are you doing?” she was about to sit on the chair when she froze in the air with her body bend and half squatted to sit down. 

It was an awkward position in which she stopped hearing his cold and distant words. 

She looked at Wen Ru and saw a mocking smile on his face. 

She immediately stood up straight and fixed her posture and turned to look at Ji Cheng with her gentle smile and asked, ” Is there anything wrong, his highness?” 

Ji Cheng raised his brows when he heard her question. 

He looked at her coldly and said, ” This seat is for Zhao Ming. Xiao Li, don’t you know that the seat beside the Emperor is always for the Empress.” 

” How could you dare to sit here. Though we’re not in any public affair but it is still her position. You know that you cannot sit on the Empress’s seat. Don’t forget that. ”

Xiao Li’s face turned crimson red from embarrassment. She was told off by Ji Cheng just because she wanted to sit beside him? 

She glared at Zhao Ming who was busy adoring the study. 

Wen Xu never treated her this way and always give her the seat where Zhao Ming sits when Ji Cheng was not in the country. 

She always treated her like an Empress and Zhao Ming like a mere concubine with lower status. 

She never thought and treated Zhao Ming as the Empress when they were alone and whenever Ji Cheng was not in the country. 

Because at that time all the power and responsibilities come into her hands as she was the Empress Dowager and always behaves arrogantly and rudely to Zhao Ming. 

Now when Ji Cheng scolded Xiao Li who was trying to sit on the seat of the Empress, her blood boiled as her ears turned red from anger. 

She tightly clenched her dress and silently nodded and sat on the chair next to Wen Ru without looking at him. 

Her face was solemn and expressionless. She has become white from anger but can’t show it like this. 

She was digging her nails in her palm to control her anger.
