Chapter 400 - She looked extremely.... tantalizing

When Zhao Ming entered the bathroom, her mouth opened in awe. 

As she expected, the bathroom was as big as her room. 

It was very luxurious as white colored sheer curtains were making this bathroom more luxurious and beautiful. 

She could see a large bathtub through the layers of the curtains. 

She felt that the bathroom in this pavilion is much more luxurious than hers in the palace. The bathroom in the palace has more dark and natural vibes. 

There was a large bathtub in Palace as well but there were no white curtains. However, she liked these curtains because it gave her luxurious and natural vibes.

She turned to shut the door but realised that there was no lock. 

She was dumbfounded when she found out that  there is no lock. 

-_-

" Did they use all their brain on the decoration and forgot about the lock?" she shook her head as she was speechless. 

She couldn't believe that they didn't have a proper lock. 

She didn't know that this is Wen Ru's bathroom and other than him no one enters in this bathroom, so that's why he hasn't put any lock. 

There is another bathroom for guests on the other side of the corridor. Master Wen doesn't like to put locks and since no one comes here other than him, so he never bothered to do so.

" Haish. Leave it. I will take a quick bath and be done with it. After all , it's afternoon time, so I don't think anyone else will come here." She murmurs as she shut the door tightly and walked towards the bathtub. 

Zhao Ming walked towards the bathtub passing through the curtains. She looked at the bathtub filled with clear water. She slipped her hand in the water to check the temperature. 

It was cold and refreshing. Zhao King hurriedly removed her clothes and tied her hair in a bun as she did not want to wet her hair. 

It's a hassle to dry her hair because there is no hairdryer and Zhao Ming has waist long black hair. 

It is very troublesome to manage Zhao Ming's long hair. 

After removing her clothes she hurriedly slipped inside the water. She shudders at first when her body touches the cold water. 

But she felt comfortable when her body started to get used to the temperature. 

The water was cold and refreshing. Since it's summer time, it's really uncomfortable to wear these double-triple layer clothes. 

There is no air conditioner which makes it more difficult for her.

" It feels so good" she leans back and rests her head against the edge of the bathtub. She places her both hands to the side of the bathtub. 

She closes her eyes to relax. 

….. 

After chatting for a while with Wen Ru, Ji a Cheng goes back to his room. 

" What are you doing here?" When he opened the door of the room, he found Lu shi in the room. 

Lu shi almost jumped in shock when she heard Ji Cheng's voice. 

She turned back and replied, " Ah.. Your highness,I was just placing these gifts that Master Wen Ru has sent for Miss." she spoke with her quivered voice. 

JI Cheng glanced at the tray on the table and nodded. He looked around and frowned when he didn't see Zhao Ming. 

" Where is Zhao Ming?" 

. 

" Ah.." Lu shi's body trembled slightly as she felt nervous in front of Ji Cheng. 

" Ah.. Miss… She went to take a bath." she answered  his question hesitantly. 

" Oh. You can go now." he waved his hand asking her to go back. 

Lu shi bowed in front of him and hurriedly went out. 

Ji Cheng walked towards the bed and just as he was about to sit down, his gaze stopped at  something on the table. 

He walked to the table and picked up the towel that Zhao Ming had forgotten in the room. 

' She forgot to take her towel?' he frowned as he wondered what she would do without it. 

Ji Cheng pondered for a moment then walked out of the room with a towel in his hands. 

He decided to bring this towel to her since she has forgotten to take it. 

Lu Shi has told him that Zhao Ming went to the bathroom which was on the end of the corridor. 

He had also seen that bathroom when they were looking around, so he directly went to the bathroom which was near to their room. 

He stood in front of the bathroom and looked at the door in front of him. 

He looked down at the towel in his hand as he pursed his lips. 

He took a deep breath and knocked on the door. A frown appeared on his face when he didn't hear any voice from inside. 

He knocked again and called out her name. 

" Zhao Ming." 

When he didn't get any response and heard nothing from inside, he got worried. 

" She is inside right?" he muttered as he was confused why there was no sound from inside. 

He pursed his lips and tried to push the door. 

Surprisingly, it opened right away. He was shocked because he was not expecting to open it so easily.

He hesitated for a while, but entered the bathroom anyway. 

He looked around the spacious bathroom and saw the slender figure in the bathtub. 

The curtains were putting a layer which covered the bathtub but since they were of sheer fabric, he could see the figure laying in the bathtub. 

His face turned scarlet red at this sight. His palms turned sweaty as he tightened his grip around the towel. 

He gulped and called out her name. " Zhao Ming?" 

But a frown appeared on his forehead when he saw that she was not moving at all. 

Her eyes were closed and she was not moving at all. This made him worried as he didn't wait for another minute and walked towards her.

He pushed the curtain aside as he walked nearer to the bathtub. His steps came to halt when her pearl white skin came into his sight. 

She was looking extremely…. Tantalizing.

Her hair was tied in a bun and her slender white neck was exposed to him. Though most of the body was inside the water and could not see properly because of the foam in the water . 

But her hands which were placed on the side bathtub revealing her milky white smooth arms. 

He gulped seeing this sight. 

" Zhao Ming?" he called out again as he didn't know what to do.

He was surprised when he heard his voice which had turned hoarse. 

His throat has turned dry and his temperature felt rising. 

It was getting difficult for him to stay calm seeing her in this state. 

. 

She was n.a.k.e.d in front of him, though he couldn't see her full body, but he could imagine it. 

And that wild imaginat ion was making him crazy. 

He furrowed his brows when she didn't open her eyes after he called her out many times.

He grew worried as he walked to her. He bent down and patted on her cheeks while calling her name. 

. 

" Zhao Ming. Zhao Ming."

At this moment he couldn't be bothered about her n.a.k.e.d body in front of him and was feeling rather worried than excited. Because she was not responding to his words.
