Chapter 745 - The Curse (20)

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

Zhao Ming squinted her eyes when she saw the familiar figure walking inside the restaurant. " OH? Isn't that..Brother Ji Zhelan?" She asked in confusion, not sure if she was dreaming or hallucinating. How can Ji Zhelan be here?

Thinking about him, she couldn't help but think of that horrendous dream that was not only a dream but her tormenting past. She never thought that Ji Zhelan was that ruthless Emperor's reincarnation.

He looks like a fine man but since Ji Cheng has told her that he was the one who had planted that bodyguard behind her when Xiao Li spread the rumors about her and was planning to do treason, it still sent shivers to her spine. How can a man with such a puppy-innocent face be so evil?

Ji Cheng raised his brows and looked in the direction she was looking and frowned when he saw a man with pale skin and was fairly tall entering the restaurant with his face covered with a black mask and was wearing a cap.

" Are you talking about that man who just went inside? You can recognize him even though he is hiding his face? I think you're just talking nonsense." He said, seeing her talking about seeing Ji Zhelan in this world. How can he be here?

However, upon hearing her words, he couldn't help but worry about what he must be planning, and since he was not there to check the situation, it was making him even more anxious.

" Did I see wrong?" she frowned and blinked her eyes in wonder.

-

Upon entering the restaurant, she looked around and searched for Ji Zhelan but frowned seeing that no one was there other than a few more customers who came to eat just like them.

"Was it my illusion? But I clearly saw him entering the restaurant." She muttered.

Ji Cheng, who was standing behind her frowned seeing her looking for another man, " Aren't you hungry now? And hold your bags yourself. How can you ask me, 'The Emperor of Ji Dynasty' to hold your bags?" He complained, leaving her to stare at him in disbelief.

' Why is he being so sensitive all of a sudden? Isn't he holding them fine all along?'

" Well, you're not the Emperor anymore, so who cares?" she murmured, only to earn a glare from him.

After settling on one of the tables, she looked at the menu and smiled seeing all her favorite dishes that she couldn't have at Ji Dynasty. Although the food they served at the palace was the best and especially the Special noodles by the Head Cook at the royal kitchen.

But she was excited to eat the food that she couldn't eat there. Living at the palace with no junk food was giving her anxiety and making her nervous. She needed to please her taste buds as well to have peace of mind.

" So..Mr. Emperor, what do you want to eat?" She looked at him curiously.

Ji Cheng who was looking at the menu frowned seeing that everything was written in a language that looked like a random drawing to him. She chuckled seeing his lost expressions and looked at the waiter who was standing beside their table, " Erm..Please give us medium pepperoni and vegetable pizza each, spaghetti with lobster, garlic bread, and two cans of chilled beer. Thank you." she said and passed the menu back to the waiter.

Ji Cheng looked at her in surprise as she ordered in English. Seeing her speaking in a foreign language that only the highly educated ambassadors who deal with foreign trade and relations could understand and even they can't speak with this ease. He couldn't help but stare at her in awe.

However, when the waiter brought the dishes, his eyes widened in shock. " You ordered this much? Can you eat all this?" He asked while looking at the strange dishes and wondered if they were edible or not.

She glared at him and made him shut up. " Do you doubt my appetite? You should know better than anyone how my appetite is." She commented, making him choke at his water.

He pursed his lips, remembering how she used to finish all the dishes one by one when they used to eat together. Her real appetite was hidden behind her gentle appearance. She might look like she can't eat much but she alone can eat three people's portions.

She served him pizza and gestured to him to try it. However, he was hesitant but when he tasted it, his brows raised in surprise automatically.

What is this taste? It's very...different from what I have eaten in my whole life?

It is soft, chewy, and savory at the same time. The tomato sauce was addicting and the white thing on top was complimenting the red sauce very well. Zhao Ming chuckled seeing him picking up the other piece of the pizza when she wasn't looking. However, her eyes were on him all the time, it just he was the one who was unaware.

" Who would've thought that I would get to see him enjoying pizza?" she murmured and shook her head helplessly.

As she was eating the spaghetti, she frowned when she saw Xie Xinyi and her mother Xie Rouxi entering the restaurant who were giggling and was holding the numerous shopping bags and took a seat on their right.

Zhao Ming frowned seeing the duo of white snakes and placed the fork on the table with a force, startling Ji Cheng who was struggling to eat the spaghetti that was like a new world to him.

He raised his brows seeing her face turning cold and indifferent. He noticed her glancing at the table on her right side and frowning even more.

' Does she know these people?'

-

Xie Xinyi placed the shopping bags on the empty seat beside her and looked at Rouxi after placing the order, "Mom, do you have any plan to deal with that 'bitch Xie Ming'? I can't believe that she has the nerve to throw us out of her office. Does she think that she is some hot-shot just because she is Liwei's wife?"

Xie Rouxi took a deep breath and scoffed, " I feel frustrated at Liwei. How can he be so stupid? How can he choose that piece of trash over my precious daughter?" She said while looking at Xinyi affectionately. If she had gotten married to Liwei then she would have been the Mistress of Jin Family and their company would not have been in this condition.

Zhao Ming frowned who could hear everything since they were sitting across them and scoffed in disbelief.

So they don't have any topic to talk about other than speaking ill about her?

Ji Cheng frowned upon hearing their words and glanced at Zhao Ming who was sitting there with stiff expressions. Her expressions were different than before and her smile was replaced by a frown when she saw the pair of mother and daughter.

Are they talking about Xie Ming? But who can they be? He wondered and glanced at Zhao Ming who was frowning at their words.

" Mom,?do you think that she will help our company? Because of him, Liwei has ruined our business completely. After that scandal, the company's reputation went downhill and on top of that, Liwei is using all his connections to make us out of business." Xinyi said in worry.

After Xie Ming revealed the scandal about her bullying in school, there was a new article almost every day and her identity was also revealed, which caused great harm to her image. She was also fired from the new place that she found after leaving Jin Corporation. When she decided to handle the company affairs with her father, the company's reputation was ruined because of her and people were talking nonsense about her.

Xie Rouxi pursed her lips and smirked, " If she doesn't help, then I have my ways to make her do what I say."

Xinyi raised her brows and asked curiously, " What? Do you have something that we can use against her? She has become too foxy now before she used to be fearless but naive at least." she shook her head helplessly.

" Now she doesn't leave any weaknesses behind. How can she be so crafty?" she scoffed thinking about how she changed public opinion with her words only and later that boy's statement changed the whole game.

Zhao Ming who was listening to their words, was left dumbfounded and scoffed in speechlessness, '" What? Naive? Are they really talking about me?" she can't believe that they used to think of her as naive. She agrees with the brave attribute but naive? She has never been naive, she would have felt happier if they had called her bitchy or strong-headed but naive?

Ji Cheng pursed his lips and placed a hand over her hand, " Ssh. Don't speak too loud."

She rolled her eyes seeing him acting like this.
