Chapter 785 - Couples Party!!
A warm smile spread across Zhao Ming's face as she watched everyone's happy-smiling face while enjoying the other events at the banquet. Seeing everyone happy, all the memories that she has made after coming into this world were flashing in front of her eyes.
The horror when she slapped Ji Cheng on the face when she first saw him, the feeling of disbelief when she witnessed the luxuriousness of this palace at Empress Dowager's banquet that she first attended in this world.
The feeling when she gets to see the different side of Ji Cheng from his usual cold-cruel Emperor image was still vivid in her memory. The Emperor she had thought that would kill her if she made or mistaken is now an official Empress slave when they're alone.
The feeling of pleasure when she first got out of her virgin mary phase and turned into a full-mode pervert; her first kiss, her first se….erm...her first time, every feeling is still as it is in her memories.
The time has fled in a blink that she can't help but think that everything happened just yesterday. The curse that has brought her into this world, she was glad that it happened otherwise she would have missed the opportunity to have these beautiful kids with this man, her husband.
' I wonder what is happening in the other world. I just hope Zhao Ming is also happy and content with the life she has chosen for herself.' she sighed while wondering if she has any regrets about her choice or not.
She glanced at Yaling and Xiecheng who were watching the performance with their sleepy eyes and smiled, 'Because I don't regret choosing this life over my original one.'

" Yu mei, pass me the soy sauce and take out those small-fancy plates." Xie Ming was busy in the kitchen, cooking her signature dish, the spicy noodles with seafood. It's a busy day since she has been in the kitchen for hours and was busy preparing dinner for everyone.
Tonight, she and Liwei invited their friends home for a dinner party. There is no special reason but since everyone was insisting to have a get-together before Bai Ju could leave for Australia again, they arranged this.
Bai Ju has opened a new hotel branch abroad and needs to be there to manage its work since it's in the starting phase.
Liwei has invited- Bai Ju, Bai Xuiren, and Xiao Jun while she has invited Su Jin and Dr. Feng who not only works in the hospital but also the nephew of Ms. Yang whom she has treated on the road and later did her delivery.
Although Liwei has told her to call for a takeout delivery from outside or let the kitchen staff prepare the food, however, she insisted on cooking as she wanted to treat everyone to the food made by her.
" Miss, you should go and get changed now. It's almost time. The guests must be coming any moment, you should get changed now." Yu Mei insisted on seeing Xie Ming who was wearing the pale pink apron that has been stained with the sauces that she has cooked.
Xie Ming checked the time and realized it's almost 6 pm. " Ah, it's quite late. Then….let the broth boil for 10 minutes before turning it off. I am leaving it in your care then." She finally removes the apron of her and leaves the kitchen.

On the dining table, Liwei glared at Jin Liang who was sitting in front of him and was slurping on the noodles that Yu Mei has served for everyone, " Why are you here? We didn't invite you." He said coldly while looking at his brother who has shamelessly crashed into their party.
Jin Liang shakes his head and says, " Brother, don't you feel a bit of guilty seeing me here? You called everyone, even this cheapskate Xiao Jun, but not your brother, why? I am your brother for god's sake." he said dramatically while pretending to be shedding tears.
Xiao Jun who was sitting beside him chuckled and said, " This party is only for couples, not for singles." he commented, making Jin Liang feel even worse.
Jin Liang gritted his teeth and looked at Dr. Feng who was sitting beside Su Jin and was sipping on the wine, " Then why is he here? Isn't he single, like me?" he asked with confidence because he can't dare to question Bai Ju who was looking at him with his sharp glare and this Xiao Jun has already paired up with Bai Xuiren.
How can he even like her when she always treats him like a stray dog, he has no shame in being treated like a puppy and follows her everywhere brazenly.
Dr. Feng looked up in confusion, wondering what he had done when Su Jin who was sitting beside her glared at Jin Liang and scoffed, " Who said he is single? Mr. Jin, don't you think you're too confident in yourself?"
"...."
Xie Ming couldn't help but chuckle and said, " Erm...Su Jin is Dr. Feng's girlfriend." She introduced them finally to Jin Liang who came crashed into the party late, at the time of dinner only.
" Not only girlfriend but his soon-to-be wife. We're engaged!" Su Jin said boastfully, showing off her engagement ring to him.
" That's enough. You don't need to say anymore." Dr. Feng tapped her hands, telling her to not say anymore otherwise Jin Liang who was already hurt will end up crying.
In these years, he has left Global Entertainment and started his label but still, no one gives him attention. Why is he the only single one? Well, there is Bai Ju who is single as well, but who dares to call him out.
He will probably throw him out of here if he did that.
Bai Xiuren shakes her head seeing Jin Liang's antics and turns to Xie Ming, " So, how is to be the chief of the department? Isn't it hard?" she asked with concerned expressions.
Although she used to like Jin Liwei before, in these past years, not only her feelings for him have subsided but seeing Xiao Jun chasing after her relentlessly, she decided to give this stupid a chance as well.
He might be stupid but he is comfortable to be with, that's why she is bearing his stupidness.
Moreover, her relationship with Xie Ming has also improved, enough for them to talk over the phone and go shopping together. Since Su Jin has joined them sometimes for their outings, so they're not entirely strangers to each other.
Xie Ming clears her throat at the sudden question and says, " It's hard of course. I not only have to treat the patients but have to look at the other work of the department as well."
Since Grandfather Su has officially retired from his position, she was appointed as the new head of the Chinese department, leaving her head doctor position.
" But you're doing better than my grandfather. The expenses of the department have reduced since you have taken over. Do you know how much Old Feng has become relaxed after you became the chief of the department?" Su Jin laughs after revealing the true feelings of Old Feng who is the Director of the hospital and Dr. Feng's Grandfather.
Seeing everyone enjoying their time happily, a contented smile appeared on her face. In these years, things didn't change much but she only got busier and busier. Although she was busy and barely had time for herself, she was happy since she was doing the work she likes.
Liwei who was sitting beside her, saw her smiling in a daze and leaned closer, " Aren't they annoying? That's why I was saying that it's a bad idea to invite them over."
She turned to him and chuckled at his words. Why does he hate calling his friends over for a party? No doubt everyone calls him annoying.
