ETERNAL LOVE : A LOVE STORY Chapter 253 - The biggest enemy in any relationship was lack of trust.

Jin Villa. 

Xie Ming spent the whole week while resting and sleeping. Liwei didn't let her do anything for the whole week. 

For the first few days, he accompanied her at home and took care of her. He never left her side even for a minute. 

Xie Ming started to feel weird because he stuck to her all day. Sometimes she felt frustrated because he didn't let her do anything and she felt bored by just lying on the bed the whole day. 

With much difficulty, she finally persuaded him to go to the office and made him believed that she was fine and will take a rest and do nothing. 

It was so hard to make him believe that she was fine. She had to ask the doctor for his opinion and when he said that she can walk on her own but needs to take caution and should not walk much for a week, then Liwei agreed to go for work. 

Otherwise, he would have stayed at home for the whole week and helped her take wherever she wants. 

The days he stayed at home, he always carried her to the washroom and wherever she wanted. He didn't let her place her foot on the ground as he was afraid that her infection will get serious. 

He does not want her to get hurt more and wanted to pamper her and took care of her like a princess. She felt like she was some kind of porcelain doll that needs to be protected at any cost.

These days, they both slept together on the bed but he didn't touch her and controlled himself because he knows that she was sick and he could not go overboard. 

He does not want to hurt her again. These past days, their relationship has improved a lot. 

Now Xie Ming does not feel uncomfortable while sleeping with him. She felt that these past days their relationship has improved a lot and they have become closer. 

She was sitting on the sofa in her room while flipping through the English book. These days after Liwie joined the office, she went to his study and searched for a few books of English to read. 

The real Xie Ming has studied abroad and English was a language in which she was very fluent and stable. 

However, Zhao Ming was unfamiliar with this strange language. But she needs to learn it from the core to not let people be suspicious of her. 

Moreover, she has Xie Ming's memories and it was not much difficult when she started to read the books to learn the language. 

When she picked up the book, she realized that many things looked familiar and for some reason, she can adapt to it well. 

These days she has used it to learn English so that people won't doubt her anymore. Because English is a language which has become very common and if she can't speak English, then people will doubt her. 

It was Saturday and she has to go to the hospital on Monday as the doctor has asked her to get a checkup before resuming her work. 

After the incident, she had informed Tang Nian about what happened. Liwei had asked her to explain everything to her because if there is any problem in the future than it would be Tang Nian who has to manage everything. 

When Tang Nian heard it, she was shocked to know that someone kidnapped her in front of the Global World. She became panicked but Xie Ming assured her that she was fine and just needed to rest. Xie Ming has omitted the part of how she was rescued because if she were to tell her the details then it would be difficult for her to hide Liwei's identity.

Tang Nian understood everything and asked her to rest and not think about anything else. She knows about the workshop that was supposed to be held next week and told her that she will see what she can do. 

Xie Ming got bored by reading the English grammar book, so she picked the English fashion magazine. 

On the cover page of the magazine, there is a cover photo of Jian Yan. She remembered him as she has met him in the mall with Mrs. Wu. He was her son and was the guy whom she has assumed to be the serial killer when she met him for the very first time at Global World.

In the photo, he was not wearing anything on the top and was only wearing black trousers and exposing his bare skin which displayed his six-pack abs. His body was perfectly toned and showing off his s.e.xy physique.

Though she never looked at him like this before, but he was also very handsome. In fact, among the actors of his age, he was the most handsome and desirable man. 

But to Xie Ming, he still lacked in charisma and attractiveness in front of Liwei. For her, no one could compare to him and his charm. 

She just flipped through the magazine without any thought and looked at the fashion articles in the magazine. 

Xie Ming's specialty was in fashion, so she was trying to get herself aware of the latest fashion trends and was reading fashion magazines daily. 

She has understood that if she has to stay in this world, then she had to get herself aware of the trend and Xie Ming's lifestyle here. 

She felt that this was her new life and does not want to waste it as well. She was glad that she got the chance to come into this world and get to see the era where women can work freely and especially in the entertainment industry. 

In her past life, women were treated as commodities and the women who earned their living by dancing and engaging themselves in entertainment activities were treated as p.r.o.s.t.i.t.u.t.es. 

It was very saddening that art like dance and music was considered as low and cheap that's why the women from the noble families were allowed to learn only poetry and classical music. 

They were not allowed to sing or dance apart from classical music and poetry. That's why they were treated as novel and respectable. 

However, Zhao Ming has never learned poetry and classical music and whenever she went with her father far off places, they like to sing songs on their way and the songs were heartwarming and anyone could sing them, unlike the classical music. 

But when she entered the palace, she realized the difference between them when one day Wen Xu asked her to sing a classical song in front of her friends when they came to visit her in the palace. However, she didn't know how to do so. 

Xiao Li took the lead and sang the classic song and everyone praised her for being well brought up and noble. Whereas Zhao Ming was titled as good for nothing and lowly Empress. 

At that time, Ji Cheng was out of the village and went to the nearby country to settle the trade and political relations between the empires. 

Now when she thinks about it, Wen Xu and Xiao Li always act up against her whenever Ji Cheng was not in the palace. And when he was in the palace, Wen Xu never ill-treated her in front of him. 

And Xiao Li becomes extremely sweet and caring in front of him. At first, she always thought that it was he who hurt her or ignored her but it's been days since she came into this world. 

When she went back to her past life in her dream and saw the expressions on Ji Cheng's face, she was shocked because those were the expression she never gets to see. 

After that incident, she always wondered if that was her dream, hallucination or did she went into the past and saw his expressions. She still remembered his gaze and the way he looked at her. 

His gaze was gentle and full of guilt. Her heart ached whenever she remembered his face. 

Whenever she thinks about her past life she realized that there were many problems between her and Ji Cheng. 

She can't completely blame Ji Cheng for never standing by her side because she made many mistakes as well. 

The biggest mistake from her side was that she never told him how Wen Xu was behaving with her behind his back. 

Whenever he comes back from the war or far off country, he asks her if she was uncomfortable in the palace or have any issues adjusting to the palace life. However, she never told her problems outright and pretended to be strong and fine. 

She got much time since she came into this world to think about her behavior. She doesn't like to be weak and never shared her hardsh.i.p.s with anyone. 

She was afraid that he would blame her for not living peacefully with Empress Dowager and would hate her. 

It seems like the biggest enemy in their broken relationship was not Wen Xu or Xiao Li. But it was their lack of communication and trust. 

If both of them have opened their hearts to each other then they wouldn't have to see the painful end of their relationship. 

Xie Ming looked at the magazine and closed her eyes briefly. She has always blamed Ji Cheng for not treating well and making her life hell.
