Chapter 612 - Beautiful Guy

Zhao Ming was bewildered seeing the way Ji Cheng was acting so mysteriously. He never acted like this with her.

What is so special about the guest who is inside the room that he was not even letting her in? And not only that, he was trying so hard just to send her back. 

Strange thoughts were going in her head. She pursed her lips and asked, " Why can't I …".

Before she could say anything, she heard someone's voice from inside.

" Your Majesty."

Zhao Ming's brows knitted because Lu shi told her that Wen Ru has come but it's not Wen Ru's voice.

She recognizes Wen Ru's voice but this voice was calm and different from Wen Ru's deep voice.

' If it's a man then why is he acting like he was hiding his mistress inside?' She was speechless founding out that the person inside the room is a man and not a woman.

Seeing Ji Cheng's mysterious behavior, she assumed that he was hiding a woman inside. 

She was preparing herself how to break his bones afterward but in the end, it's not a woman but a man?

Then why did he create so much suspense?

Ji Cheng frowned when the man greeted Zhao Ming from inside, but she still couldn't see him because the door was half shut and Ji Cheng was standing in the way.

However, before he could close the door, someone pushed open the door fully.

Zhao Ming was dumbfounded seeing the ridiculously handsome man in front of her. Unlike Ji Cheng, he does not have a manly and cold aura around him. Instead, he was neat and very charming.

She pursed her lips as she stared at him with her mouth partially opened because he looked like he had jumped out from a manhwa. Why is he so cute? 

However, even though he looked like a decent guy, Zhao Ming felt that something was amiss. The gaze in his eyes was not matching with his bright smile. 

" Greetings to His Majesty. It's our first time that we are meeting right?" The man fully opened the door and looked at Zhao Ming with a subtle smile.

Zhao Ming woke up from her daze and realized that Ji Cheng was beside him and he would get mad if she tried to check out another man in front of him.

She pursed her lips and said, " Yes. I don't think we have ever met before. " She said politely.

Ji Cheng pursed his lips and made way for her to enter the room.

She gave him a side glance before entering the room. She could feel that the atmosphere in the room was quite cold and suffocating.

What's happening here?

Upon entering the room, she saw Wen Ru was sitting on the chair. She brightly greeted him while he responded with a smile.

However, his expressions were awkward and he avoided her gaze. [ Read this novel on W e b n o v e l . c o m ( remove spaces). If you are reading this elsewhere, then this novel is pirated. Support the original author, not thieves. Regards Kamlyn]

She sat beside Ji Cheng, while the beautiful guy was sitting opposite of her.

She turned to Ji Cheng and was waiting for him to introduce her to the beautiful guy but he said nothing.

"-_-"

Seeing that Ji Cheng had no intention to start the conversation, she was about to say something when the beautiful guy spoke, " Your Majesty, I have heard a lot about you. But never got a chance to meet you."

" However, I am so glad that Brother Wen Ru brought me here today. Because of him, I got to meet you and Brother Cheng. I am so glad to be back like this."

Zhao Ming pursed her lips as he hadn't said his name yet. Seeing her confused expressions, the man smiled and said, " Ah, I forgot to say my name right? I am Ji Zhelan." he laughed a little on his clumsy actions.

However, Zhao Ming's smile froze when she heard his name.

' Ji Zhelan? He is the Prince Ji Zhelan?'

Her eyes widened in shock as she remembered what Ji Cheng had said about him before.

She has heard that he is Ji Cheng's brother but from another mother. According to what she knows, he has left the palace after Ji Cheng's father died but what's more shocking is that Ji Cheng has told her earlier that it was him who had planted the bodyguard in the palace and it was because of him that Zhao Ming got into the whole scandal.

Ji Zhelan raised his brows as he looked at Zhao Ming, " Seems like you know about me." He paused and smiled, " Mother and I left the palace after father's death. But coming here after years feels very different. This palace hasn't changed a bit but many faces have changed. I mean, Brot...his Majesty got married but I couldn't attend your wedding." 

" It feels a little strange that I am meeting you after two years of your marriage. However, I hope we can get along well in the future," he said with a smile on his face, his eyes were sharp and clear. 

She was surprised seeing his expressions because he looks very innocent and a nice boy. If she doesn't know about what he did to Zhao Ming, she might have been deceived by his beautiful smile.

Her smile faded as she turned to look at Ji Cheng. He pursed his lips when he saw her shocked expressions. He sighed because that's the reason he doesn't want her to meet him.

He was also surprised to see Ji Zhelan with Wen Ru. But since he has come to the palace in the name of meeting Grandmother Shuren and since Wen Ru brought him, he can't say anything.

Also, Ji Zhelan never did anything out in the open. He knows that he planted his person in the palace to keep an eye on him, but there is no evidence to prove that. There is a silent war between them, no one is saying anything but both of them know what's going on. 

He wants Zhao Ming to be away from him because like before he doesn't want her to get into his trap. But now since she is already here, he can't do anything but let her meet him. Moreover, it's better to deal with him directly rather than playing hide and seek.

Also, since she knows about him, he is sure that Zhao Ming won't be deceived by his looks or his innocent smile. He believed that she is capable of taking such decisions.
