ETERNAL LOVE : A LOVE STORY Chapter 167 - Seduce him in bed.

Ji Cheng stood beside Zhao Ming's bed, staring at her intently. 

He was bothered seeing her sobbing like this. Her condition was vulnerable. Her face was ashen and tears kept rolling from her eyes. 

It was the second time she was crying like this after waking up from the coma. 

He was surprised seeing her so weak. She shut everyone's mouth with her badass attitude in the banquet.

And now she was crying like this. 

Seeing her condition, Ji Cheng felt a pain in his heart. 

' I could never understand her heart. She must have been very hurt earlier at the banquet but didn't show anything. And now she is even crying in her sleep.' he felt bad seeing her like this. 

He squatted down at the ground and looking at her from her level.

He looked at her and touched her forehead with his cold hand, slowly caressing it and called out to her, " Zhao Ming."

" Don't cry. Wake up and see that everything is fine. Don't be afraid. I am with you. I promise I won't let anyone hurt you anymore. I might not be a good husband before, but I will not let you suffer in this palace anymore until I am alive." 

" I might be ignorant before but I know what is precious to me and how to protect my loved ones. Now I am powerful enough to protect you from everyone. I cannot return all the years that you spent in agony."

" But I can promise, that I will do my best to return all the love you've given to me. Now you just stay where you are and I will make my way to you."

" Just don't cry and don't be hurt. Otherwise, my heart will hurt seeing you like this," he said with a heavy voice. 

On the other hand, Xie Ming couldn't hear his words as she was in sleep. 

He was calling out Zhao Ming's name but she was not Zhao Ming. 

She was still not used to be called Zhao Ming. 

Though she couldn't hear his words, but her struggle in sleep reduced a bit. The creases on his forehead disappeared and she was looking relaxed than before. 

His hand never stopped patting her forehead.

Ji Cheng smiled seeing that her expressions were getting better. 

In her dream, the situation changed and now she was in an enclosed room which was pitch black. 

There was not a single ray of light. 

She was in the middle of the room, squatting down on the ground holding her legs in her hands. 

Her position was like an abandoned kitty in the rain. She was shivering in fear and pain. 

Then suddenly a cold hand came and started patting her head. She couldn't see the person's face due to darkness. 

But she felt his presence and it gave her a sense of security. Her tension reduced a bit. 

She tightly held onto the hand as her last hope. 

In reality, Zhao Ming tightly held onto Ji Cheng's s hand which was patting her forehead. 

He was startled when she suddenly grabbed his hand and brought it to her chest and hugged it tightly. 

At first, he felt kind of awkward as she hugged his hand tightly. 

He could feel her soft mounds and his face blushed red. 

The moment she woke up from the coma, he feels like he became docile in front of her. It seems their roles reversed the moment she woke up. 

She was very different from the way she was before. 

The reserved and pure Ming suddenly turned into open and clumsy Ming. 

He felt more familiar with this clumsy Zhao Ming.

He sighed seeing that she has no intention of leaving his hand. 

And he could not bear to wake her up now. She seemed to be relaxed and sleeping peacefully. 

He was worried that if he woke her up now, she would struggle to sleep again at night. 

He was looking at her adoringly when the Chamber's door opened. He looked towards the door and found that it was Lu shi.

Lu shi was first startled to see Ji Cheng looking at Zhao Ming like this and she noticed his hand in Zhao Ming's grasp.

Her mouth opened in surprise but she quickly closed it to not to be rude.

She smiled in delight. 

' Aiyaa. Miss seems to not care about his highness, but she was planning to seduce him in bed now. She is progressing so quickly.' she thought inwardly. 

She hadn't seen Zhao Ming's condition, so she thought that Zhao Ming was seducing him to bed. 

Ji Cheng looked at Lu shi who was standing at the door. He signaled her to go back.

She nodded and left after bowing to him. 

He turned his gaze toward Zhao Ming. 

He took a deep breath and raised the blanket that Zhao Ming was using. 

He raised the blanket and went inside it, lying beside the small space left on the bed. 

Though the bed was big enough for two people but she was sleeping with her body stretched and using the lost of the space on the bed. 

So there was only a little space on the bed and he tried to adjust and lay into that little space. 

He silently and without making many movements went in and covered himself and her with the blanket property. 

Then he scooped her up and placed her head on his arm that he already stretched out. 

He was laying on his side, and the other hand was in Zhao Ming's grasp. 

Zhao Ming who was holding onto his hand felt something beside him. 

While sleeping, trying to find a comfortable position, she placed her hand on his waist and hugged him closer. 

She sniffed his fresh and manly smell and hugged him tighter. 

Her face was in his neck, her hand was wrapped around his waist and she placed her legs on top of him.

She was stuck to him like a koala.

Her sudden movement, made his body froze on the spot. 

He was just planning to sleep holding her in his embrace silently, but he didn't think that she would hug him like this while sleeping. 

Her sleeping position was not ladylike. Her hair was in mess and she was drooling from the corners of her mouth.

But he couldn't be bothered by her messy appearance. 

When he felt her hot breath on his neck, his back stiffened. 

He was out of breath. He couldn't breathe properly and he dared not to breathe heavily as it might wake her up. 

So he tried to hold his breath. 

This made the situation worse. He felt uncomfortable with her holding onto him like this. 

He tried to breathe carefully as he was out fo breath. 

As he breathed out in relief, Zhao Ming felt his breath over her head. 

In her sleep, she unconsciously, snuggled into his embrace and rubbed her face against his neck. 

This made Ji Cheng gulped in nervousness. 

He was the Emperor and had a great sense of control over his body. 

But in front of Zhao Ming, no control of his body was working.

He was regretting the decision when he decided to accompany her to sleep. 

Now he can't wake her up neither sleep peacefully. 

A/N: " Why are you so stupid? I am allowing you to progress in your relationship with her and you want to sleep while holding hands? Aren't you being too innocent?"

JC: " I am not innocent. I just don't want to force her again. You know our history is no better."

A/N: " Liwei is much better at these things than you. At least he knows how to take advantage of these situations." Sigh.

JC: -_-

While sleeping Zhao Ming felt hot as she slept in her dress. Though the dress was not that heavy and was comfortable but it was not suitable for sleeping.

Her forehead creases as she felt uncomfortable while sleeping.

Ji Cheng has his eyes closed but he was not asleep completely. He couldn't sleep beside her.

And on the other hand, she was sleeping like a log. She was a heavy sleeper and couldn't be bothered by her surroundings while sleeping.

When Ji Cheng felt some movements beside him, he slightly opened his eyes but his eyes opened wide in shock.

His mouth and eyes opened wide in shock. He couldn't believe what he was seeing in front of his eyes.

He looked at her in disbelief.
