Eternal Love: A Love Story

Chapter 117 - She Is Behaving Oddly.

"But Miss, his highness has sent them especially for you. If you don't wear them, he will feel bad. You should not deny his gift like this." Lu shi said cautiously.

Hearing Lu shi's words, Zhao Ming looked at her for a while and thought for some time.

Meanwhile, Lu Shi heaved a sigh, at least she was thinking. She can't let her make a mistake and reject his Highness gifts. I need to help Miss to recover her memories otherwise, she might ruin her relationship with the Emperor if this goes on.

After contemplating for a while, Zhao Ming looked at Lu shi and smiled, "You don't need to return these gifts to him." She said with a smile on her face.

Hearing this Lu shi's face lit up but her next words made her stunned.

"You don't need to return the gifts to him. But I will not wear these clothes tomorrow. I will pair the accessories with the dress of my choice."

"I know even if I tried to be low key, but my beauty will not hide. Hah. I am too beautiful to be true." historical

"And now my skin is more soft and white." As she said, she started admiring the softness of her skin.

' Even after using high-end quality makeup, my skin wasn't this smooth. Though I am beautiful than many other girls out there but the quality of this skin is something else.'

' Without many cosmetics, the skin is smooth and looks healthy. I think it's because of the fresh air and less pollution.' Zhao Ming thought about it.

While she was busy in her imaginations, Lu shi was looking at her with an amused expression.

It was the first time she had heard Zhao Ming praising herself so shamelessly. Earlier she used to degrade herself, her self confidence became very low due to Empress Dowager's constant scolding.

Zhao Ming looked up at Lu shi, who was staring at her with her mouth wide open and the other two maids were also looking at her with surprised expressions.

At first, the maids were not happy to be placed in service of Zhao Ming as it was well known that Empress Dowager doesn't like her.

And the servants of Empress Dowager and Xiao Li will look down on them if they worked for Zhao Ming.

The servants also have hierarchy in them, which is decided by the reputation of their Masters. And the reputation in the Harem is no better.

And she is such a pushover, that she won't be able to protect them. But now they had witnessed a different side of Zhao Ming.

The servants were surprised. They had heard that Empress has changed after waking up from the coma, but now they had witnessed it themselves.

The Empress has changed a lot.

After staring at Zhao Ming, Lu Shi finally spoke, "But Miss, tomorrow's banquet is really special. You're the Empress, you just can't wear normal clothes tomorrow. It's a special occasion. It's Empress Dowager's birthday. "

" There will be many princes and princesses from other states and ministers in the banquet. You should consider wearing them, you can't lose to Xiao Li in terms of look tomorrow." Lu Shi pleaded to Zhao Ming.

She doesn't want her Miss to be looked upon.

Zhao Ming glanced at worried Lu Shi, she sighed and said, "Lu Shi, I know I am the Empress. I don't need you to remind me all the time."

"And don't worry. No one will be able to look down on me. You just see how I dealt with Xiao Li. Do you think anyone can step on me just like that." Zhao Ming said with a devilish smile.

Zhao Ming continued, "?And keep this dress carefully. If something happened to it, we might need to pay it with our lives." She said with a tensed face while looking at the dress.

Lu shi wanted to say something but no words came out. She knows that her Miss is right, but she can't help but think that she should wear this dress.

She sighed. ' She can't do anything if she doesn't want to wear it.'

She took the dress and ready to leave the room picking up the clothes and jewelry with two other maids when she heard the voice of Zhao Ming.

"Lu shi, after keeping these things safe, and bring me something to eat. I am hungry now." Zhao Ming said while rubbing her stomach.

Lu shi looked at her Miss and sighed.

' Miss is behaving really oddly. '?Without saying anything she nodded and went back.

Zhao Ming looked at the back of Lu shi and smiled. This girl reminds her of Yu Mei.

Yu Mei was always worried about her relationship with Liwei. And she was the only one, who took all the tantrums from her and never left her.

Lu shi is just like her.

Remembering about the past, she felt heavy-hearted. She thought that she doesn't care, but she was missing her home.

Though she always fought with Liwei and his family, but still there was some sort of feelings connected to them.

She can't forget them just like that. Even one gets attached to the street dog if seen often, but she lived with Liwei for about a year. And he particularly that bad. Maybe it was also her fault to always exaggerate things.

It's hard, to not have any feelings. She has given her memories to Zhao Ming happily, she thought she doesn't care.

But... it's upsetting. To live the life of someone else, leaving everything behind.

And it's not like she had chosen this. She can't control her own life, herself.

This place is different from her world and it's been only a day when she came here but she was already very tired. It's exhausting to pretend to be someone else.

She sighed.

' What a hard life, Xie Ming. You must have offended someone from above, that you're facing this kind of fate.' she thought to herself while shrugging her shoulders.
