This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

Ji Cheng looked at Liwei who was dressed in strange clothes of this world but his face was undeniably good-looking and it made him even more uncomfortable seeing Zhao Ming talking to this man casually.

He was confused and did not know if he was feeling this way because of Xie Ming who is the real Zhao Ming and his love or because of Zhao Ming who is originally Xie Ming and this man's wife before she went into another world.

He looked at Zhao Ming who was looking at the man with a smile and was laughing while talking to him.

Liwei looked at Zhao Ming and chuckled, " Were you playing in the water before coming here? Why are your clothes dirty and damp? Aren't you cold?"

Zhao Ming sighed and responded with a sigh, " It was a Hot Spring, not mud. And I am feeling freaking cold. But Yu Mei didn't let me go upstairs and change." she said with a frown.

" Oh. She did a good job though," he said in a low voice, making Zhao Ming frown at him.

Xie Ming looked at Zhao Ming in worry and said, " Ah, I am sorry. I should have let you change earlier. You can go upstairs and change into my clothes." she said while looking at her worriedly.

Zhao Ming nodded and asked Liwei, " My clothes and stuff are in my room, right?"

"...."

Liwei pursed his lips and glanced at Xie Ming in awkwardness.

" Don't tell me you threw my stuff? Xie Ming, how can you do this? I still have your stuff carefully stored with me. How can you throw mine?" Zhao Ming said upsettingly. She treats Xie Ming (Zhao Ming) as her soul sister, she even let her stay with Liwei despite her upsetting relationship with Ji Cheng, and here no one was thinking about her.

Xie Ming has Liwei, Ji Cheng is still concerned about Xie Ming, while she doesn't have Liwei nor Ji Cheng who used to love her. In the end, she is the only one who is alone and has no place to return to.

" I haven't thrown your stuff. But I have asked Yu Mei to shift your stuff to the other room. Your clothes and makeup and accessories, everything was placed there carefully. But are you going to change into that? You know I can lend you my clothes." Xie Ming asked worriedly.

Xie Ming's original clothes were all short dresses and quite fashionable while hers were to her taste, simple and conservative. But she was worried that Ji Cheng might not like Zhao Ming changing into something scandalous since his mentality is not as open as Liwei.

Zhao Ming shook her head and said with a smile, " It's okay. I want to wear mine clothes. It's been months since I have worn comfortable clothes." she said before walking upstairs with Xie Ming.

Liwei looked at Ji Cheng who just changed into his grey pajama trousers and a black t-shirt. His clothes perfectly fitted Ji Cheng's muscular body and made him look like a model.

He couldn't help but frown seeing how good-looking he looks in his pajamas. What? Why is he overly handsome for an Emperor? They went downstairs and waited for the ladies to arrive. He took Ji Cheng to the dining room and sat on the chair while waiting for the ladies to come downstairs.

Liwei glanced at Ji Cheng who didn't say anything all this while and wondered what this man was thinking. Technically they are competitors but he couldn't help but feel intimidated by his strong presence.

" Erm...You...Your Ma-

" You can call me by my name, Ji Cheng. There is no reason for me to call with the title in this world." Ji Cheng stoically.

Liwei nodded and asked, " So Ji Cheng... you're not planning to take Xie Ming with you, are you? I mean to take Zhao Ming back to your world. See..let me make this clear first, she is my wife now. You can't take her away. I don't care about the relationship that you had with her before but now she is my wife and we love each other. I won't let you take her away from me."

" She has already suffered so much with you, I don't want her to get hurt and be disturbed by your presence. I hope you can keep your boundaries in check while staying here. " He said indifferently.

Ji Cheng didn't say anything and stared at the man with a frown seeing her teaching him how to behave in his house and before he could say anything, he heard Zhao Ming's playful voice from behind.

" Tsk, Tsk. Liwei, I never thought that you're a coward. You should fight for your love and not beg him like this. Have some self-respect at least. Do you think that Mr. Majesty can keep his anger in check just because you asked him to do so? He is Emperor for god's sake. Don't take him so lightly, " Zhao Ming, who had just heard Liwei's words, commented and walked towards the dining table.

Liwei raised her brows seeing Zhao Ming standing there. wearing her night pajamas. He glanced at Ji Cheng and said hesitantly, " Ahem, isn't it...too short?" he asked while being wary of Ji Cheng. He was not sure if these clothes were suitable for her to wear in front of Ji Cheng who has a conservative personality and has a similar mindset because of the world he came from.

Ji Cheng raised his brows to look at Zhao Ming went to Liwei's side and sat beside him.

However, his eyes widened in shock when he saw what she was wearing. Her clothes were shorter than he had imagined.

She was wearing a grey full sleeves silk shirt and matching shorts underneath. Her silk pajamas were short, revealing her long smooth legs.

" You. What are you wearing? Are they even clothes? They aren't even covering your skin properly." Ji Cheng said coldly while looking at her strange clothes.

Zhao Ming raised her brows seeing Zhao Ming reacting this way and pursed her lips.

" Your Majesty, this is not your world where you can tell me what to wear or not. Also, these are my clothes, the clothes I used to wear before going to that world. If you don't like it, it's not my problem."

" I am sorry for not dressing according to your taste. I am not Zhao Ming you know, I have different tastes and likes about clothes." She said which caused Ji Cheng to frown at her words.

Liwei also frowned and nudged her, " Why are you bringing Xie Ming in your argument? Don't drag her in this."

Zhao Ming scoffed seeing how he was being so protective of her. He never took her sides like this and now he was following Xie Ming like a hungry puppy.

Ji Cheng frowned seeing their interactions and couldn't help but look at Liwei with hostility.

' This man, why does he keep touching and nudging her?'
