Eternal Love: A Love Story

Chapter 327 - This Girl Is Really Peculiar.

When Zhao Ming and Ji Cheng reached the palace, they directly approached the dining area where the arrangements for the feast had been made.

For the sitting arrangement, a small table was placed on the ground while they will sit onto the cushions placed there. This authentic kind of arrangement gives a more comfortable and royal feel.

Zhao Ming was looking at the flowers arranged on the way to the room. The different lightings were used to light the way to the dinning. Xiao Li has done the arrangements luxuriously.

She has spent so much on this simple feast. It's just a welcome dinner for Wen Ru. There was no need to make it like a banquet.

This time, Xiao Li has done these decor arrangements. Generally, Zhao Ming does all this, but since she was weak and sick, she was exempted from all this work.

When Zhao Ming and Ji Cheng reached outside the dining area, Zhao Ming could see inside what's going inside. They didn't enter immediately, instead, Ji Cheng was busy instructing the guard about something.

Meanwhile, Zhao Ming peeked inside the dining room and saw Xiao Li and Wen Ru had already reached and was sitting at the table opposite of each other.

Xiao Li was trying to start a conversation with Wen Ru while looking at him with her petite face and was smiling beautifully.

She wanted to look beautiful and desirable in front of him but he didn't seem to be interested in her.

Xiao Li has noticed that he has started to give much attention to Zhao Ming and not her. He never gave her any attention in the past as well, but he didn't care about Zhao Ming as well.

Xiao Li loves to be surrounded by people and likes when they give her attention and praise her. But since Wen Ru was doing this and instead of talking to Zhao Ming, she didn't like it.

Zhao Ming and Ji Cheng didn't enter yet and were standing at the entrance but she could see Xiao Li's antics from far away.

' Hah. She never disappoints me. She says that getting close to another man is not right and here she was trying everything to be noticed by Wen Ru. What a hypocrite.' Zhao Ming scoffed lightly while holding onto Ji Cheng's arm from the side.

Ji Cheng who was standing by her side looked over and saw the mocking smile on her face.

His brows raised in interest but didn't say anything.

While Xiao Li was sitting on the cushions with her both legs folded elegantly.

Her hair was done in a bun fixed with a hairpin. She was wearing a red-colored gown and robe with heavy embroidery and beautiful gems were adorning her gown.

She looked like she came for a wedding and that's why she was wearing heavy bangles and a necklace.

Wen Ru who came a few minutes ago sat opposite her. He just greeted her casually and didn't say anything since then.

He was avoiding eye contact with Xiao Li as he was not interested in her conversation.

But she keeps going about how good she can sing and paint and all. He was not interested in her hobbies but she didn't stop.

Xiao Li who was telling Wen Ru about how Wen Xu praises her for being a filial daughter in law and blah blah was interrupted by the announcement of the guard.

" His highness and her highness has arrived." a guard came inside to announce the arrival of Ji Cheng and Zhao Ming.

After that, Zhao Ming and Ji Cheng entered the room by holding hands with each other.

Xiao Li stopped talking when she heard the announcement. Her body stiffened as she sat straight while hiding her bright smile.

Wen Ru was surprised as well when he heard the announcement.

' They're coming together?' this thought popped into his mind.

Before this, they never came together. They always came together and Zhao Ming was always the one who arrived first.

That's why he came early today to see her but to his surprise, today he didn't see Zhao Ming but Xiao Li.

He was counting the every minute passing, but when she came, she came with Ji Cheng.

He was not at the Banquet, so he doesn't know that their relationship has improved a lot.

He thought that Zhao Ming and Ji Cheng were pretending to be a happy couple in front of him earlier.

But there is no need for him to go to her chamber and come together to show off only.

His expressions fell when his gaze landed on their interlocked hands.

Whereas Xiao Li was taking deep breaths seeing their hands interlinked with each other. Zhao Ming was looking beautiful and was smiling innocently.

' She clearly came dressed up like this to gain their attention. What a bitch.!'

.

Zhao Ming was wearing a beautiful gown which was not too heavy and too simple. It was just perfect for this occasion.

She was wearing something on her face which made her skin glowing and fairer. She was looking beautiful.

Xiao Li hated how she was looking more beautiful than her. Her dress was very different and contrasting colors make her look more endearing and gorgeous.

She clutched her hands in a fist as she pursed her lips seeing how Wen Ru was looking at Zhao Ming in a daze.

…

Xiao Li and Wen Ru both stood up to greet Ji Cheng and Zhao Ming.

" Greeting to his highness." Xiao Li bowed in front of Ji Cheng while Wen Ru bowed slightly and nodded at Zhao Ming.

Zhao Ming who was standing straight and nodded at their greeting.

She looked at Xiao Li and she was smiling at her as always.

' Did she forget what happened in the morning? She tried to blame me for abusing my power and now she was eating happily in front of me?'

' This girl is really peculiar.'

Zhao Ming faked a smile and turned to look at Wen Ru, " Brother Wen, I am glad we got a chance to hold this feast. Hope you like this welcome feast." she slightly bowed in front of him.

Ji Cheng who was standing by the side frowned seeing her talking so politely and gently to Wen Ru. The word, ' Brother Wen' was annoying him.

Wen Ru smiled and said, " I am happy that I am getting this chance to know more about you. Also, the arrangement is just beautiful.".

Zhao Ming smiled awkwardly and said, " It's not me. Actually…" before she could tell him that the arrangement and food were not done by her but someone else.

" Brother Wen, this arrangement is done by me. Sister was still sick and should not work, so I have done all the arrangements. This setting and the flowers were all arranged by me. I am glad that you liked it." Xiao Li spoke interrupting Zhao Ming with a bright smile on her face.

This time, Zhao Ming didn't do anything so she finally got a chance to show her skills. She has asked for the most expensive and beautiful flowers to be placed at every corner.

Everything was done by her except food. She has ordered the kitchen to cook a few dishes, but Zhao Ming went there to check and then kicked Hao Mei out of the kitchen.

She still didn't forget this humiliation but was trying to be not so obvious.

She did not like the way Wen Ru was giving the credit of her work to Zhao Ming, so she spoke and informed him that it was she who did everything.

Zhao Ming did not do anything and it just slacked off while she worked so hard for his welcome feast.
