Chapter 1817: Chapter 1817: Not Continuing?
Unknowingly, she fell asleep.
When Lu Hualiang returned, he saw Xia Weibao leaning against the headboard, her head tilted, sound asleep.
The phone in her hand had slipped onto the blanket.
This sleeping position made him feel a pang of heartache.
He tread lightly over to her, wanting to lay her flat.
But as soon as he touched her hand, Xia Weibao woke up.
In a daze, she opened her eyes and saw Lu Hualiang’s face.
She smiled slightly, but she was too tired, making the smile seem a bit weak.
"Hubby, you’re back."
She spoke, picked up her phone to check the time, and it was already half-past three in the morning!
"Why so late?" Xia Weibao was somewhat displeased; no matter how busy, he shouldn’t go without sleep.
"There were some things to deal with. Why aren’t you lying down to sleep?"
"I was waiting for you."
Lu Hualiang felt a wave of heartache, "Waiting for me to do what? Didn’t I tell you that I’d be back late these days, for you to sleep first?"
"I missed you."
With a slightly coquettish tone, Lu Hualiang’s heart softened, "Silly girl."
Xia Weibao sat up, "Hubby, you rest awhile. I’ll go run a bath for you."
Hubby worked so hard, she ought to be a good wife and mother, right?
Lu Hualiang pulled her back, pressing her down on the bed, "No need, just a shower is fine."
It’s so late, no soaking in the tub.
Moreover, with so many things going on these days, he’s too tired; if he were to soak, he might fall asleep.
He bowed his head and gently kissed her forehead, "You sleep first, no need to wait for me."
After speaking, he took his clothes to shower.
When he came out, Xia Weibao hadn’t slept yet.
Lu Hualiang dried his hair and lifted the blanket to lie next to her.
Xia Weibao immediately burrowed into his arms.
Lying on his chest, she looked at him with a smile.
Lu Hualiang bent his arm, wrapped it around her back, and held her tight.
He didn’t immediately turn off the light. After leaving the Xia Family, he’d been so busy that he couldn’t make time; every night he returned, she was already asleep.
He left too early in the morning, not wanting to wake her, and they hadn’t exchanged words for several days.
Looking at his pretty and endearing wife in his arms, Lu Hualiang felt a surge of affection.
How long had it been since they consummated their marriage?
Ever since she became Patriarch of the Xia Family, she’s been busy running around Eastern Countries, barely having any downtime.
And he’s been globally occupied, dealing with Yang Zixin, Long Xuanye, and handling Nan Yi.
Their times together are rare, and those few times weren’t fully satisfying.
Since leaving the Xia Family, he’s been even busier.
After all, at the Xia Family, everyone had to mind the family’s dignity and wouldn’t go too far.
But after leaving, there was no restraint!
The couple couldn’t even find time to talk, let alone anything more.
Lu Hualiang lowered his head, pressing a deep kiss on her lips.
His hands also became restless, constantly kneading her slim shoulders.
With a little force, her collar loosened, exposing a large area of fair skin, making Lu Hualiang’s eyes redden.
The kiss moved down from her lips; he softly bit her earlobe and then kissed her neck.
Munching and ravaging her sexy collarbone.
Xia Weibao’s breath quickened; she couldn’t quite handle such stimulation.
She couldn’t help but let out a slight, soft moan.
Damn it!
Lu Hualiang cursed silently; that enchanting sound at this moment, purely teasing him!
Just as Xia Weibao thought he would continue down, Lu Hualiang once again pressed his lips to hers.
A fierce, lengthy kiss ensued.
Yet, holding her, he calmed the turmoil within.
"..." Xia Weibao, "Not going further?"
