Chapter 994: Chapter 994: Face-Slapping! 9
She hates betrayal!
"Did something else happen?" Lu Hualiang asked.
He drove all the way here, not knowing what had happened.
Moreover, he doesn’t follow the entertainment industry and generally isn’t aware of what’s happening online.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been taken advantage of by Yan Weiyang’s popularity for so long last time.
He’s very busy, with companies on the surface, underground forces, and the situation with Xia Weibao taking down the White Elephant Hall hasn’t completely blown over yet. There’s a lot going on.
He also has to make time to accompany his wife.
Even if all his subordinates are capable of handling things on their own, a lot of issues still come to him.
Lu Hualiang raised his hand, touched her head, and seriously reflected on whether he had been too busy lately and neglected her.
"Honey, if something happened, you can tell me about it."
Xia Weibao still lacked interest; she couldn’t tell Lu Hualiang about this.
Otherwise, he would definitely connect the dots and realize it was Ruan Shushu who set the snake loose.
It’s not that she’s a saint; people are already after her life, yet she’s still kind-hearted.
But she felt that with something so serious happening, Ruan Shushu’s life was already ruined.
The online uproar was already overwhelming, which was the greatest punishment; there was no need to add fuel to the fire.
However, her silence didn’t mean Lu Hualiang wouldn’t investigate.
Given her safety, how could he not take it seriously?
When he found out her prop had been replaced with a venomous snake, he had already arranged for Yang Li to investigate.
Coincidentally, Yang Li’s findings were sent over at that moment.
Behind Ruan Shushu’s name, there was also a link attached.
There’s no denying, Yang Li understands Director Lu the best, knowing exactly what he wants to know.
Without needing instructions, he sent it over.
Lu Hualiang opened it, eyes slowly narrowing, finally understanding why she was in low spirits.
She values loyalty, yet was stabbed in the back by a friend.
Issuing an order, Lu Hualiang put down the phone.
He pinched Xia Weibao’s chin, turning her head, then his cool lips pressed against hers.
Lightly kissing her soft lips.
Xia Weibao neither rejected nor responded, just sat still, letting him kiss her.
Really not in the mood.
After the kiss, Lu Hualiang stepped on the gas and left.
"Where are we going?" Xia Weibao asked sullenly, "I’m not in the mood right now, don’t mess with me."
Lu Hualiang was a bit speechless, "Honey, I just wanted to take you out for a change of scenery; where did your thoughts wander?"
Xia Weibao breathed a sigh of relief, "Oh, I thought you wanted to take me to a hotel."
"Do you see me as that kind of person, forcing you when you’re in a bad mood?"
Though he did want to.
They had a cold war for five days, then she had her period, then she was locked up in Imperial City University for six days—a total of eleven days.
For someone like him, who’s like a carnivore, enduring eleven days is a miracle indeed.
If she had been in a good mood today, he might have really taken her to a hotel.
Xia Weibao showed a slight disdain in her eyes, "Honey, I’ve noticed that you really lack self-awareness."
You!
Do you not know your own animal instincts?
Is there even a need to ask if you’re that kind of person?
Lu Hualiang chuckled, realizing that she still got angry, indicating her mood was somewhat better.
"Where exactly are we going?"
"Is there someplace in particular you want to go?"
"Horseback riding on the grasslands."
Lu Hualiang, "..."
"We can’t go for now."
"Why?"
For goodness’ sake, of course, it’s because you’re too wild to handle.
"I’ve been really busy lately, no time."
Xia Weibao didn’t even want to look down on him. Being so busy but still driving three hours to find her—who is he fooling?
