Chapter 191 - Wasn't She A Proper Ladylike While Sleeping?
Ji Dynasty.
Zhao Ming lay straight on her back as Ji Cheng was sleeping beside him.
His eyes were closed as he lay on his side facing Zhao Ming. His breathing was normal and his expressions were calm as he was sleeping.
While Zhao Ming's eyes were wide open, her hands were placed on her stomach as she clasped them tightly.
It was the first time for her when she was sharing the same bed with a man.
She was having difficulty while breathing as she was nervous that it will wake him up.
When Ji Cheng decided that he will stay in her Chamber for a night as he was afraid to leave her alone, she tried to send him off.
But he was adamant about staying a night in her Chamber.
' Aish. I shouldn't have pretended to faint. Because of it, this clingy man got a chance to stay in my room. And I can't even send him off.'
' Logically, he is my husband. Though not mine but Zhao Ming's. But I am in her body. So technically, he is my husband. ' she wondered while staring at the canopy of the bed.
Her brows furrowed while thinking about it.
' What if he tried to do more than just sleeping? Will they kill me if I said no to him? I have seen in the dramas that women have no rights in the palace.'
' They change women like clothes. Will that happen with me too? Do I have to give him my body too? ' sweats started clouding on her forehead as she keep thinking about these things.
This place was strange to her and she doesn't have Zhao Ming's memories either.
This is the reason she was having more difficulty in coping with the environment.
And the few things that she remembered were not enough to live quietly here.
She sighed heavily as she realized the difficult situation she was in.
….
When Ji Cheng told her that he will sleep with her tonight, he noticed that her expressions were not good.
His expressions sank when he saw the way she was tried to chide him off.
But he was adamant to stay with her. Because by spending more time with her, he can solve the problems in their relationships.
She slept in the corner of the bed which was attached to the wall.
He noticed that she was trying to create a distance between them.
She lay straight on her back, with her hands clasped in the front. Her posture was rather uncomfortable for sleeping but she refused to lay comfortably.
She said that she was fine.
That's why he slept on his side to close the distance between them and so that he can look at her face at night.
He tried to keep his eyes closed and his breathing normal while he pretended to be asleep.
But her heavy breathing and sighing made impossible for him to sleep.
The room was quiet and the only sound was the sound of her heavy breathing. It was getting difficult for him to pretend to sleep normally.
He slightly opened his eyes to see her face and when he opened his eyes, he kept staring at her.
She was looking at the ceiling with her body rigid and her brows were furrowed.
He sensed that she was nervous with him sleeping beside her.
He noticed that her skin was glistening in the darkness of the night.
As it was the night time, he had ordered Feng Ju to blow off the lanterns due to this, there was complete darkness in the room.
However, he can vaguely see her in this darkness.
In this darkness, her white skin was glowing as he noticed her heavy breathing and noises from her sigh that were too sensual in this dark summer night.
He tried to control himself as he gulped in nervousness.
He wanted to sleep while hugging her but seeing her reaction he dismissed that thought from his mind.
Because he can't take a chance that will make her hate him more.
He sighed as he turned around and faced his back towards her to sleep.
In the middle of the night, he was sleeping on his side with his back to her, when his eyes flapped open in startle.
He looked down at the hand which was wrapped around his waist tightly.
…
After looking at the ceiling while lying in the bed, she eventually slept. She was tired the whole day as attending the banquet was exhausting.
Zhao Ming has bad sleeping habits. She cannot sleep straight on her back with her hands and legs in control.
When Ji Cheng was resting with his back facing Zhao Ming, she suddenly stretched her hand and wrapped it around his waist.
Ji Cheng was startled with her sudden action.
Not only that she moved her body closer to him as she snuggled her face into his back sending shivers to his body.
Ji Cheng's body trembled as she snuggled her face onto his back.
His breathing hastened as he felt her mounds on his back.
It was getting uncomfortable for Ji Cheng to control his emotions. He tried to remove her hands but was startled when she placed her on leg on him.
She placed her leg on him as she snuggled closer to him.
Ji Cheng couldn't even speak anything as he tried to silently remove her leg.
But instead removing she moved her leg a little to find a better posture to sleep.
He almost jumped in horror when her leg brushed against his.. little brother.
He was afraid that she might kick his little brother in her sleep. Because she was not a silent sleeper instead she was quite aggressive in her sleep.
Her leg was near his little brother and she kept moving it here and there. He tried to use his all will might to control his senses.
It was getting crazy as she was stuck to him like a koala.
He could feel her scorching breath on his back. Her chest was heaving up and down as she was breathing.
He opened his mouth but covered with his hands to not make a noise.
He was trying his best to not wake her up from her sleep.
' Since when she became so crude while sleeping? Wasn't she a proper ladylike while sleeping?'
' Does memory loss affects sleeping habits as well? Can a person forget all the hardcore training they have received for all their life in a blink of an eye. ' he wondered about her odd behavior as he stared at nowhere.
He sighed when she roams her hand on his chest.
