Chapter 459 - Do You Really Love Me?

Zhao Ming looked at everyone and smiled seeing their stunned expressions. 

" So if no one has any questions, should we end the meeting here? Hmm?" 

Wen Xu frowned when she heard Zhao Ming's question. 

" Hmph." Wen Xu didn't say anything and stood up to leave without any word. 

She couldn't understand why she was even bothering to ask when she doesn't want to do according to their wishes. 

' She should have sent the announcement letter to them rather than holding the meeting.'

It was such a waste of time to stay here.

It's better to leave this meeting and meet Ji Cheng to talk about the issue of the warning letter. She needs to talk about their monthly budget cancelation as well. 

' How can he do that to her? She is his mother.'

… 

Zhao Ming didn't say anything when WEN Xu stood up to leave without saying any word. Xiao Li followed the suit and left the study room. 

" Let's officially end the meeting here. If you have any problem you can ask me but let me remind you, I won't be polite to those who are rude to me. So if you have any problem you can approach me but please keep your attitude in check. Otherwise I will have to teach you how to talk to the Empress. " Zhao Ming said with a smile while staring at Xie Mei. 

Xie Mei pursed her lips and quietly stood up to leave. 

After everyone left, only Jia Shi, Xue Lang and Zhao Ming left in the room.

" Sis… I mean Empress Zhao Ming, you were so amazing just no. You were so bold." Xue Lang praised Zhao Ming for her boldness. 

Zhao Ming smiled and said, " It's okay. You can call me sister. Also, if you ever have any problem in the palace, you can just tell me. I will help you "

Zhao Ming felt responsible towards Xue Lang because she was so petite and cute. She felt like an elder sister towards her. 

Xue Lang was touched when she heard Zhao Ming's words. She nodded and turned to Jia Shi," Sitter Jia Shi, congratulations. Now you're the head Consort." 

" Thank you." Jia Shi responded with a mild smile. 

Zhao Ming was satisfied that she made the decision to let Jia Shi take the position as the Head Consort. 

At first she wasn't planning this, because she received the warning letter sent by Ji Cheng through Feng Ju at the last moment. 

However, when she saw Jia Shi and her attitude when she entered the study room and apologized politely, she decided that she wanted this girl to be the Head Consort. 

Jia Shi is polite and reliable. She was sure that she could do work much better than Xiao Li. 

***

Jin Villa.. 

Xie Ming took a bath after Liwei carried her to their room and asked her to freshen up. She was in daze, not from her sleep but because of the strange dream. 

She was trying to figure out if that was her dream or the truth? If it was true and she really went to the Ji Dynasty and saw Ji Cheng in her dreams, then who was that girl? 

Because she is the real Zhao Ming and is now in Xie Ming's body. Then who is the girl who is pretending to be Zhao Ming in the Ji Dynasty? 

She had a headache just thinking about it. She thought that Xie Ming had died after giving her the memories, so who could that be? 

After spending some time in the bathroom she came out of the bathroom wearing her bunny printed pajamas. The towel was wrapped around her hair as she made her way to the vanity table to put on her night cream. 

After she was done drying her hair, she proceeded to go downstairs for dinner. Just as she was about to open the door of the bedroom to go out, it was pushed open from outside. 

She was startled for a second but looked at the man outside the door holding a tray in his hands. 

She smiled seeing that he brought their dinner upstairs. 

" I thought that you must be tired, so I brought dinner over here. It's good to have dinner sometimes in the bedroom cozily." he entered the room and passed by her to place the tray on the coffee table. 

Xie Ming smiled and followed behind him, and hugged him from back.

" You're the best husband in the world. "

Her actions caught him off guard when she suddenly hugged him from behind. He could feel her soft skin even through his shirt. 

He held her hand tightly which was wrapped around his waist. 

" You're right. You won't be able to find someone as good looking as me. I am the exclusive piece you know. Only for Mrs. Jin." he boasted while rubbing her hands with his thumb. 

Xie Ming smiled hearing his words. 

" Liwei." she called him out in a serious voice. 

Liwei raised his brows sensing the change in her mood. 

"Hmm? "

" Do you really love me?" she asked as she rubbed her head against his back. 

" You still have doubt? Hmm?" Liwei asked as he felt his back stiffened. 

He didn't know why she was suddenly asking this question. 

She shook her head in denial when she heard his counter question. 

How can she doubt him? She knows how much he loves her. 

" Then? "

Xie Ming closed her eyes as she felt strange by just imagining what if one day she woke up and found herself in the Ji Dynasty?

The thing she is most afraid of is that everything would go back to the same as before. 

What if she went back to Ji Dynasty and Liwei won't be there? What if he doesn't even realize that she has changed and was no longer the same Xie Ming whom he has loved? 

What if he didn't feel bothered by the fact that she wasn't the same as before? 

After that dream where she saw her past self sitting beside Ji Cheng, she started to feel strange. A sense of insecurity started to form in her heart. 

Because she never had such a conversation with Ji Cheng before. It must be her imagination, right?

Now when she has finally accepted her life and is living her life quite well, she doesn't want to go back in time. 

She has finally given her heart to someone, she doesn't want all of this to break again.
