Zhao ming felt that Ji Cheng felt bad for making Zhao Ming suffer like this in the past and her going into a coma might have frightened him and he wanted to fix all those things that he has done before.
But she felt burdensome accepting his apology as she was not the one who has faced everything and she could not forgive him just because he has behaved nicely to her. She was not the real Zhao Ming and could not make the decisions on her behalf.
She felt uncomfortable and decided to keep quiet about this matter. She looked up at him which has a tender expression on his face and his eyes were reminding her of an abandoned puppy which was the opposite of his cold and hard-hearted personality.
At this moment, she felt her heart melting away. She was not feeling as unyielding towards him as before.
She shook her head to remove all the extra thoughts from her mind and straightened her back and glared at him, " Your Highness, this is not the main point. The main point is that why are you sleeping here? You have your chamber and it is more luxurious than this one. You can go to sleep there. Moreover, I am also tired and need rest. So please go." she directly confronted him and told him to go.
She almost got into his words and forgot about this issue. She has no idea was it him who changed the topic or is it her who changed the topic? However, she felt slightly uncomfortable under his gaze which was looking at her with his gentle eyes.
She looked away and coughed a little as she felt burdensome under his scorching gaze which keeps looking at her without blinking his eyes.
His lips curled upwards seeing her ignoring his words and his question. Though he was sad about it but he was not feeling that bad because she didn"t reject him right away. It means there is a hope to remedy their relations.h.i.+p and he just needs to try more to make her feel better and comfortable around him.
He stared at her with his head slightly tilted on his side and was smiling at her pet.i.te face which was looking more lovable and adorable when she tries to look away and tries to avoid his question or eye contact with him.
He chuckled lightly and said, " I am not going anywhere. I am tired so I will rest here and take a nap here. Moreover, this is my consort"s room, so why would I go anywhere?" he said as a matter of factly.
A mischievous smile was plastered on his face which makes her heart flutter when she looked at him. The cold and dangerous Emperor looks very charming and cute whenever he smiles.
While smiling he looks harmless and more approachable. Unknowingly, a smile also placed on her lips making her stare at him for no reason.
She looked at him and felt like getting trapped under his spell. She blinked her eyes to keep her head straight. She sighed lightly and said, " Your highness, you can stay here but I also need to rest. As you know my body is weak and I need to take a rest as well. And both of us cannot sleep in the same bed as there is not much s.p.a.ce. The bed is not as big as the one in your room, so it would be better if you go thee to rest." she forced a smile while speaking her mind.
She wanted him to go out of the room but he kept being stubborn and wanted to stay here. She does not want him to stay in her room as she was tired as well. She wants to sleep too and she has eaten too much which was making her sleepy and tired. But the man in front of her does not budge from her bed and was treating it as his bed.
Ji Cheng raised his brows at her and smirked lightly, " You want to sleep?"
Zhao Ming nodded her head firmly.
" Then there is no problem. We can sleep together. And the bed is no small. We have slept together last night and you do not seem to have any problem sleeping beside me. Let"s not stretch this topic anymore and lets" sleep. I am tired. Aaaww" he said while yawning as he put his legs on the bed and laid on the bed without listening to her words.
He laid on the bed and cleared a s.p.a.ce for her to sleep as well. He patted the s.p.a.ce beside him and said, " Come and sleep. You must be tired." he said while looking at her with his charming smile.
She just looked at his shameless behavior with her mouth open. She could not believe that this man does not even get off from her bed instead he was asking her to sleep beside him.
At this moment, she felt that the words he just said a while were to distract her from this issue as he was aiming to make her sleep with him on the same bed.
Her face turned crimson seeing him shamelessly asking er to sleep beside him. Last night was different because she was pretending to be sick but this morning she was laying over his chest in her sleep and she was feeling uncomfortable to sleep beside him.
She knows that she has bad sleeping habits and could not control the movements of her body while sleeping.
In the morning when she woke up wrapped in his arms and her head rested in his nape, she felt extremely embarra.s.sed as it was her first time to be so close to a man. She never has gotten into an intimate relations.h.i.+p with Liwei and they were like strangers living together.
She looked at him and stuttered while avoiding his eye contact, " Wh..what sleep? I can"t sleep with you. I.. can"t sleep peacefully. I tend to move a lot while sleeping and it"s not good for highness to sleep with me. What if I hurt you while sleeping?" she tried to convince him that it will be dangerous to sleep with her.
He raised his brows in amus.e.m.e.nt and chuckled a little seeing her sheepish act and her ruby red face and her cherry-like earlobes which are red from embarra.s.sment.
" Why is she so cute?" he chuckled lightly.
Zhao Ming looked at him and was laughing lightly and his laugh was mellow to her ears making her state at his smiling face which was glowing with happiness.
He looked at her and did not say anything. He just stretched his hand and tugged at her hand and pulled her towards him. This sudden action made her lost his balance as she fell on the bed and he caught her in his embrace
He was laying on the bed lazily while facing her and when he pulled her down, she lost her balance and fell with her half body over him and her face was in front of his and they were so close that she could feel his breath on her face.
When she looked at him from close, she could see the dark circles under his eyes and those eyelashes which were black and long making him more charming and attractive.
She felt her heart beating crazily when she felt his breath on her face which was hot and making her body tremble with the weird sensation that she was feeling from this sudden proximity.
Ji Cheng who was also surprised by this looked at her jade white skin which was glowing under the light coming from the outside. Her face has turned red from embarra.s.sment making her look more adorable and cute.
He pulled her slightly just to make her lay on the bed but he didn"t expect her to lost her balance and fell.
He could see her peach-like plump moist lips which were tempting him to taste their sweetness. He swallowed his saliva in nervousness while looking at her ripe peach lips.
He could feel her heartbeat which was beating like crazy. He slightly looked up at her and met with her tempting and orbit like eyes which were looking at him straight in his eyes. The atmosphere was very ambitious and was making hard for him to control himself anymore.
