Chapter 478 - You Really Don't Remember Anything?

Xiao Li was in the state of panic. She stood at her place in shock as she tried to process the hidden meaning behind his words.

Wen Xu looked at Xiao Li and asked after Ji Cheng and Zhao Ming entered the room , " Xiao Li, did you understand what Ji Cheng was trying to say? Is there something that he knows? Did you do something?"

Wen Xu tried to think about other things but there was nothing so serious that could send Xiao Li? to the cold palace.

Cold palace is a very cruel place and people were sent there only if they had committed some grave crime. But what grave crime did Xiao Li have committed that Ji Cheng gave her this warning?

Xiao Li was trembling in fear after hearing Ji Cheng's warning and couldn't even hear Wen Xu's words.

' Did he know something about that night?' her hands trembled when she remembered that Ji Cheng had asked her the question in the beginning about the night when Zhao Ming attempted to take her life by falling into the pond.

The argument later shifted to the other subject all thanks to Wen Xu but she was unaware if Ji Cheng knew anything about that night.

" Xiao Li, why are you trembling? Are you okay? Are you sick? Do you want me to call the Imperial doctor? " Wen Xu panicked seeing Xiao Li trembling.

Xiao Li glanced at Wen Xu and pursed her lips remembering that she didn't even say anything when Ji Cheng was dismissing her.

" I am fine." After saying this, she flung her hand and jerked Wen Xu's hand with force from hers and walked out of the area.

Wen Xu was shocked seeing Xiao Li behaving like this. She never has been rude to her before but now she left her alone standing there, that too after jerking her hands forcefully.

Feng Ju saw all the actions of Xiao Li and frowned. He walked up to Wen Xu and said respectfully, " Greetings to Empress Dowager. His majesty has ordered that no one will be allowed to stand here without any work. So Empress Dowager…" before he could finish his words, Wen Xu walked out of the chamber area.

Wen Xu felt humiliated seeing that now even a mere guard was also insulting her by telling her to go.

….

Inside the chamber, Zhao Ming forgot about everything the moment she entered the room.

This chamber was more luxurious and magnificent than her own. The room was large and spacious.

It was decorated with white and light blue soft silk curtains, the expensive antiques were placed in every single corner.

The walls were decorated with different paintings and portraits.

This was more like a luxurious VIP suite than a chamber. There were royal chairs around the small round table.

She also saw a large and soft bed which was hidden behind the silk curtains. The bed was larger and better than hers.

She was in love with the large chandelier in the centre of the room.

Ji Cheng smiled seeing her looking around the room in awe. He was now sure that she liked this chamber more than hers.

" There is a bathroom there as well. You don't need to go outside for that anymore."

Zhao Ming jumped in happiness when she heard that. She really hated going out to use the bathroom, but here the bathroom was inside the chamber.

Her smile soon faded and asked while pouting, " If you have a bathroom here , then can't you make one in my chamber as well? You were hiding such an amazing thing to you ".

Ji Cheng chuckled and said, " That's why I brought you here, so that I can share this with you." His lips curled up in a playful smile.

…..

Zhao Ming was gobbling all the food on the table because she was too hungry at this moment. After the meeting and the argument with Wen Xu and Xiao Li, the time for the lunch has already passed.

Now she was having a late meal with Ji Cheng since both of them haven't eaten anything yet. Ji Cheng chuckled seeing her filling her mouth with food like there is no end.

He still cannot find the mystery why her appetite changed so drastically after waking up from the coma.

" Ji Cheng?" She asked while picking the dumplings to eat.

"Hmm?"

" Why did you ask Xiao Li about the day Zhao…I mean I fell into the pond?" She almost said Zhao Ming.

'Sigh'

Ji Cheng looked up as his expressions turned serious. He pursed his lips and asked, " Zhao Ming, you really don't remember anything?"

She choked on her food upon hearing his question.

He patted her back and passed her some water.

She took a deep breath and replied, " Yes. I don't remember anything. Why? Is there something wrong?" She couldn't understand why he suddenly asked her this question.

Ji Cheng shook his head and said, " Nothing. I Just wanted to ask." He smiled forcefully.

….

Ji Cheng had some doubts about Zhao Ming's suicide attempt was that he had heard from Lu Shi that she knew swimming then why did she choose a pond to take her life?

Moreover, her condition was so bad that she was unconscious for over two weeks. How can her condition be so bad only after drowning?

Even the great doctors from the palace couldn't figure out the cause of her unconsciousness.

Recently, when Master Lu visited the palace, he went to talk to him personally about this matter. He asked him to not tell Zhao Ming about this because he doesn't want to give her any more stress.

After hearing everything, Master Lu has told him that this can only happen if she was poisoned when she fell into the pond.

Due to poison her body would have paralyzed and couldn't do anything to save herself and she drowned despite knowing swimming.

The doctors couldn't find that she was poisoned because it must be the new poison according to Master Lu which gets mixed with blood if water was consumed after that..

And if that happens, it becomes difficult to find out if a person has been poisoned or not.

Ji Cheng sighed because there were no leads to his doubts. He has suspicion on Xiao Li but no evidence.

Zhao Ming doesn't remember anything either. It's very difficult for him to find the truth about that night.

He has suspicion on Xiao Li because of the relationship between Zhao Ming and her.

But after observing Xiao Li's expressions, his suspicion is getting stronger that she has something to do with that incident.
