Knowing she was easily embarrassed, he wisely changed the subject.
"By the way, after your encounter with Long Xuanye, how would you rate his strength?"
Xia Weibao finally lifted her head, her face flushed yet pretending to be calm. "Stronger than ."
It was rather frustrating to realize that; she had always thought she could dominate in this foreign world with her martial arts and Inner Strength.
Unexpectedly, two n arrived who could completely overshadow her.
Lu Hualiang and Long Xuanye pushed her down to third place.
Oh, wait, there’s also Nan Yi.
Although she won against him the last ti, it was purely because she used drugs.
Which ans she ranked fourth...
Oh!
How sad!
Lu Hualiang wasn’t as convoluted in his thinking; his expression rely darkened slightly.
Xia Weibao’s soul wasn’t perfectly aligned with her body, limiting her Inner Strength usage, at most only activating seventy percent of power.
However, even just seventy percent was not to be underestimated!
Yet she couldn’t even match Long Xuanye...
"Between him and , who do you think is superior?"
"I don’t know your strength," Her Majesty the Empress suddenly beca excited. "Co, co, let’s spar, Your Majesty."
In her past life, she’d wanted to have a match with him, but each ti he would just tease her, never seriously engaging in a fight.
He always said won are to be cherished, not fought against.
Please, she just wanted a proper fight, okay? Who needed him pampering her all the ti?
He didn’t spare her on the bed.
Moreover, him treating her like a cat toying with her during a spar, while ticulously ensuring her safety, indicated his strength far surpassed hers by no small asure!
Lu Hualiang chuckled lightly, "No need to fight, I can’t beat you."
In her presence, he was always the loser.
He had given her his heart, his life, how could he win?
Xia Weibao rolled her eyes at him, "Boring. By the way, Long Xuanye might know the Golden Bell Shield or Iron Shirt techniques, otherwise, how could all those explosions not kill him?"
Speaking, she punched him on the shoulder, "Do you know them?"
Lu Hualiang silently handed her a fruit knife, "Try stabbing ."
Xia Weibao, "..."
The two chatted and laughed, soon reaching the Xia Family grounds.
Long Xuanye had returned too.
On the Xia Family turf, everyone tacitly ceased fire; none dared to start a fight here.
After all, the father-in-law was around; offending Xia Jinsong might jeopardize their chances of getting his approval to entrust his granddaughter to them in the future.
Those drugged by Xia Yongxuan hadn’t yet recovered; Xia Weibao found herself with more free ti.
But Lu Hualiang beca busier, daily occupied with various video conferences.
Knowing he was busy, Xia Weibao didn’t disturb him, wandering aimlessly around the Xia Family grounds.
Her favorite spot was the Peach Forest.
The Xia Family’s Peach Forest was beautiful; she planned to sneak here with Lu Hualiang for a rendezvous at night.
Peach blossoms fluttering around, how romantic.
While sweetly fantasizing, the last person she wanted to see suddenly appeared in her sight.
Xia Weibao, "..."
She turned to leave.
Long Xuanye called out from behind, "Junior sister."
Avoidance never suited Her Majesty the Empress; since soone sought trouble, why not be forthright!
Turning back, she eyed the pale-faced man, clearly heavily injured, and felt no sympathy.
She wasn’t Guanyin Bodhisattva; if soone wanted to harm her husband, she wasn’t going to greet them with smiles.
"What do you want?" Her tone was indifferent, practically disdainful.
Such an attitude caused Xuanye internal pain, his face paled further.
His body swayed slightly, on the verge of collapse, "Do you really want to kill ?"
