Chapter 1857: Chapter 1854: Love, Does It Matter Who Came First? (Part 3)
Xia Weibao felt a bit bitter.
She always believed that she and Lu Hualiang were meant to be, that a thousand years ago they were already in love, were married, and she bore children for him.
The appearance of Long Xuanye made her very resistant, believing that this man wanted to wedge himself into her and Lu Hualiang’s relationship.
But, if what Long Xuanye said is true, if that script is also true, then who exactly was interfering with whose relationship?
Does love care about who came first?
She didn’t know, utterly confused.
After holding her for a while, Lu Hualiang finally released her once the tension of fearing losing her eased away.
He cupped her face, gently wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes with his thumb, "Why are you crying?"
Xia Weibao sniffed and shook her head, "I miss you."
"If you miss me, why did you run around everywhere? Not answering my calls, hmm?"
Only God knows how worried he was!
Both Nan Yi and Long Xuanye were in the Imperial City, and neither of them should be underestimated. What if she ran into them?
If anything happened to her, he didn’t dare think further.
Without her, he’d go crazy!
"I’m sorry, I was just in a bad mood."
"Why were you in a bad mood?"
Xia Weibao choked, struggling with what to say. If the truth came out, given his jealousy, he could drown her!
No, before drowning her, he’d go after Long Xuanye!
She used to want to kill Long Xuanye, but knowing the truth now, if she indeed wronged him first, how could she bear to do it?
Her conscience wouldn’t allow it.
Lu Hualiang was still waiting for her answer, making Xia Weibao a bit troubled. Finally, she shot him an irritated glance, "Isn’t it because of you? You were so overboard last night, my waist still hurts."
Lu Hualiang, "..."
He lightly furrowed his brows, clearly not convinced by this reason.
Xia Weibao knew she couldn’t fool him, but she really didn’t want to talk, so she turned and started walking back.
"Let’s go, I want to go back and rest for a bit."
It was only midday, and though the two had lunch together, Lu Hualiang wanted her to rest at Lu Corporation. But Xia Weibao felt uneasy and didn’t want to face him.
She just wanted some time to herself to calm down, so she insisted on returning to Lu Garden.
Unable to stop her, Lu Hualiang had no choice but to let her go.
After seeing Xia Weibao off, he immediately called Xu Jiayang, "What happened today?"
Xu Jiayang explained the script incident.
Lu Hualiang’s expression was deep, "Send me a copy of the script."
Xu Jiayang hesitated for a moment but eventually had the script sent over.
When the script arrived, Lu Hualiang was buried in urgent documents.
Having not managed Lu Corporation for so long, there was a huge pile of issues, keeping him extremely busy.
However, the moment he saw the script, he abruptly stood up, threw down the documents, and rushed out.
Back at Lu Garden, Xia Weibao changed and lay on her bed, pulling the blanket over her head, engulfed in darkness.
When the world falls into darkness, a restless heart slowly settles down.
The contents of the script flashed repeatedly in her mind, and she wanted to call Long Xuanye to ask if that was their past.
Yet, she dared not call.
Afraid it was all true.
If so, how could she face someone she had abandoned for two thousand years, someone who had chased after her for two thousand years?
Being with Long Xuanye wasn’t possible, regardless of the reasons they separated back then. Now, the person she loves is Lu Hualiang; she’s his wife.
Amidst her turmoil, the door to the room was flung open with force.
Xia Weibao pulled back the blanket in surprise to see Lu Hualiang striding in, his face full of tension.
