Zhao Ming was perplexed seeing the dress. The night dress was made of silk which was extremely soft and light. However, it was not like her normal night pajamas which has several layers to it and covered her from head to toe.
It was just a silk gown with loose full sleeves which was surprisingly short according to dresses in this era.
Though it was not revealing according to her and was a decent dress, it was a very bold and revealing dress for this era.
The neckline was a little deep and it has no layers under or over this dress. It is slightly longer than her knees.
That's why she was so surprised. For her, it was just a normal night dress but for others, it might be inappropriate and indecent.
But when she thought that Ji Cheng would be sleeping here, she felt uncomfortable because the night dresses are bothersome, because they tend to rise while sleeping.
It will not be a right choice while sleeping with him. She pursed her lips and looked at the dress in her hands, which looked extremely soft and comfortable.
" What happened? You don't like it?" Ji Cheng asked when he saw her hesitation.
Zhao Ming pursed her lips and asked, " Your majesty, you're not going to your room? It's not good if you keep sleeping here." she tried to kick him out so that she can sleep comfortably in this dress.
.
Ji Cheng frowned hearing her words. He gave her the dress and here she is kicking him out.
' That's very nice of her'.
He pursed his lips and didn't say for a moment. Suddenly, he started removing his upper robe.
Zhao Ming was startled when he suddenly took his clothes off. She was caught off guard and hurriedly closed her eyes.
" What are you doing?" she shouted as she turned her back to him.
.
Ji Cheng chucked seeing her actions. " Nothing. I am just feeling tired. So I thought that I should change as well and sleep."
" But you don't have your clothes here. Go to your room if you want to sleep. " Zhao Ming said, disregarding all the formalities.
Ji Cheng realized that she tends to talk to him informally, when she is agitated or excited.
That's good. He also wants to see her more excited and agitated. He has his ways to do that.
His lips curved upwards as he changed his pajamas while looking at the girl who had turned her back to him.
" I am done." he said as he sat on the bed after changing his clothes.
Zhao Ming frowned and turned around hearing his words. She wanted to send him back, but her eyes widened in shock when she saw that he was sitting on the bed.. Half n.a.k.e.d?
" You… Why are you not wearing anything on top?" Ji Cheng changed his pajamas only and didn't wear anything on top.
Zhao Ming could see his muscular yet tanned body. He looked tantalizing and she unconsciously swallowed seeing the appealing view in front of her.
Ji Cheng's lips curled upwards seeing her reaction. He was satisfied the way, she was appreciating his body.
" You were right. It's indeed too hot today. So I removed the top, so that I can sleep comfortably. You should hurry up and change as well. It's getting late." he prompted her to change her clothes.
" So you're not planning to go?" she gritted her teeth as she glared at him while holding the dress in her hands.
" That's right. It's my Empress's room, why should I leave. " he casually replied while shrugging his shoulders.
Zhao Ming scoffed and thought for a while.
' Why was she being shy? It's just a night dress. If he can sleep half n.a.k.e.d, then she can wear this dress to sleep as well.'
' It's not like it is new for me.' Zhao Ming thought that this dress was not that revealing and she has worn many short dresses in the past.
She didn't feel embarrassed that time, then why was she being shy and embarrassed all of the sudden?
Seems like her mind has become old fashioned after staying here for some time.
She shook her head and said, " Fine. Do whatever you want. I am going to change my clothes." she prepared to go out of the room with the dress in her hand.
Ji Cheng was fl.u.s.tered and called her out, " What are you doing? Why are you going to the bathroom to change?"
The bathroom is outside, and if she went out to change her clothes, then everyone would see her in this dress.
This dress is not appropriate and he does not want others to see her in this dress.
Zhao Ming turned around and saw his fl.u.s.tered expressions, " What?"
She didn't know what happened to him suddenly? Why can't she go to the bathroom to change her clothes?
" You can change in the room. Don't you know that it is a night dress and it will be appropriate to come back wearing this dress. There are guards outside, how can you think of going out to change into this dress?" he cannot believe that she wanted to change this dress in the bathroom.
She has become so strange after she lost her memories. How can she think of going out to change?
Zhao Ming frowned and remembered that this dress was indeed appropriate. She sighed and said, " Then you go out. I will change here."
" How can I leave? Can't you see that I have changed my clothes? I am not wearing anything on top, it's not appropriate for me to go like this. Otherwise people will talk about it." he said in a low voice.
He wanted to stay here with her, can't she see that? Since the day they kissed in the bathroom, he wants to taste her sweetness again but she always denies her romantic approaches.
He glanced at her and saw that she was indeed considering his words. His lips curled upwards and felt that his plan was working.
Since they have talked about their problems he felt much more comfortable with her. He realized that there is no excitement in their relationship.
If he wants to make their relationship better, he needs to take initiative to make their relationship better. He felt much more confident since their kiss in the bathroom yesterday.
Zhao Ming thought for a while and pondered on his words.
It would not be good for her to kick him out like this and if he went out half n.a.k.e.d, people would think that they were doing something in the room.
" But you can wear something on top and then go out. Who is asking you to go out half n.a.k.e.d?" she furrowed her brows as she glared at him.
Ji Cheng's lips twitched when he heard her words.
" It's too hot and I don't want to wear these clothes again. Why don't you just change your clothes here? I will close my eyes. I will not look at you." he said seriously.
Zhao Ming's lips twitched when she heard his words. He wanted her to change in front of him?
