ETERNAL LOVE : A LOVE STORY Chapter 132 - Did I Hurt Him?

She looked at the few stairs, which looked like climbing down the mountain in this dress and that too without heels. The dress was quite long and will disrupt walking by getting into her steps. And there were no heels either which will help to manage the dress. 

She took a deep breath and unwillingly loosened her grip on his hand. 

She said apologetically, " Ahem, I am sor.." before she could complete her words, her words were cut in between by his next action.

As she was going to pull her hand away from his arm, he held her hand and s.h.i.+fted it from his arm to his palms.

At this action of him, Zhao Ming was stunned. She hasn't expected that he would do something like this.

Feng Ju and Lu s.h.i.+'s mouth were kept open. They were shocked to see his Highness like this. 

As Ji Cheng held her hand in his, one can see a slight smile on his face. But he changed his expressions in a split second.

But Feng Ju and Lu s.h.i.+ noticed his smile and they were stunned to see him smile like this. He never smiled like this before.

To them, his smile was kind of ' eerie'.

Feng Ju and Lu s.h.i.+ glance at each other, when their gazes met, they immediately retracted their gazes. They felt awkward.

Whereas seeing Ji Chen's smile, Zhao Min was also shocked. She had never expected this kind of move from his side.

She thought, ' So, this iceman can also smile.' Thinking this, her lips curled upwards. And she tightened her grip on his hand too.

She looked at him and said, " Let's go. We're getting late." she said casually while smiling at him.

He looked at her, seeing her beautiful smile his heart skipped a beat.

He avoided eye contact with her. He thought, ' Why she is smiling like this? She never smiled like this before.'

Thinking about her smile, his cheeks blushed red. ' But ...her smile is beautiful' he can't help but smile.

Zhao Ming and he climbed down the stairs. She held on his hands tightly while climbing down as she was scared to fell.

' I should have altered the length of this dress too. AHH, it's too long. Why there are no heels?' she felt annoyed thinking about this.

As she held tightly on his hands, he felt his throat going dry. After their marriage night, they never have any kind of skins.h.i.+p.

It felt kind of awkward holding hands after so long. And moreover, their wedding night was not something desirable too.

He was drugged by his mother and does not remember the events of that night clearly. He felt bad for ruining their special night like this, and his aloof att.i.tude does not allow him to apologize to her.

He sighed as he remembered about their first night.

He looked at Zhao Ming and seeing her carefully holding her dress, he smiled.

At the last step of the stairs, she lost her balance and almost fell. But he immediately held her waist and pulled her into his embrace.

As he held her waist immediately, he pulls her towards him to make the balance. But she fell into his arms.

Her face was on his chest. As he held her, she sighed in relief. She was glad that she didn't fall, otherwise, it would be a big embarra.s.sment.

She sighed in relief.

She was still in his arms and her chest heaved as she sighed. She was not uncomfortable being hugged upon. She lived abroad for so long and hugging and kiss on cheeks were normal greetings for her.

But there is someone, for whom it was a big deal.

As Ji Cheng pulled Zhao Ming towards him and she fell into his arms, he raised his head higher to not touch her head.

His breathing becomes irregular as her chest heaved as she sighed. She was in his embrace, their bodies were stuck together.

He could feel her chest moving up and down as she was breathing. He felt uncomfortable. His throat became dry.

When Lu s.h.i.+ and Feng Ju saw this scene, they felt embarra.s.sed. They turned their backs on them to not see the romantic moments of their Masters.

After gaining her balance and calming her nerves down, Zhao Ming parted away from him. But as she looked up, she saw him looking sideways.

She looked in his direction, and there was nothing but a garden? She looked at him again and noticed the sweat beads at his forehead.

He looks like he was in trouble. Though she doesn't know why he was behaving like this.

She thought, 'Did I hurt him when I smashed into his chest? Was my head that heavy to make him this uncomfortable?" She widened her eyes at this thought.

Sensing her gaze on him, he looked down and smiled awkwardly. He doesn't know what to explain to her.

He coughed lightly and asked, " Are..you okay? did you hurt somewhere?" 

She raised her eyebrows at him and said, " I...I am fine. But ...did I hurt you somewhere? You seem you're in pain." She asked hesitantly.

He looked at her and don't know how to answer her question. He took a deep breath and said, " No I am fine. I was just... worried about that you must've hurt yourself." He lied on her face.

Then without waiting for her reply, he walked further, leaving her behind. He doesn't want her to see his flushed face. 

Zhao Ming looked at his back and confusedly said,' Did I hurt him?' then she followed him behind.

Ji Cheng stopped in his steps as he noticed that she was still behind. He turned around to look at her and noticed she was struggling while keeping her pace with him and holding her long dress.

She was struggling to walk in this dress. She was clumsily walking towards him, and when he looked at her, she awkwardly smiled at him.

' Ah, that was embarra.s.sing. Why can't they make comfortable dresses for ladies. His outfit was perfectly fitted then why my dress is like this? ' she frowned thinking about this.

He looked at her walking clumsily and chuckled. Right now she was looking the exact way, as she looked when she was 10 years old.

The same innocence and smile was on her face.

He chuckled seeing her walking clumsily while holding the end of her dress.
