Chapter 507: Chapter 507: As Long as You Stay by My Side, I Can Endure (Extra for Feifei… Rewards and More) Chapter 507: Chapter 507: As Long as You Stay by My Side, I Can Endure (Extra for Feifei… Rewards and More) How could this happen.
She shook her head, her mind was blank, and it took a while before she ca to her senses.
Looking at the woman who had fallen asleep on the bed, then looking at the photo in her hand, she thought about her emotional outburst just now.
The person in her heart must look very similar to him.
That’s why she lost control upon seeing a similar photo.
Suddenly, she felt sowhat self-mocking.
So it turns out, she really was just a substitute.
Turning around, she walked to the liquor cabinet, took out the strongest bottle of alcohol, and went to the balcony.
Through the French windows, she could see the person sleeping on the bed.
Her heart was fiercely torn apart once again.
The next day, when Xia Weibao woke up, she was alone in the room.
Her eyes felt uncomfortable, she rubbed them, and then she rembered what happened last night.
She struck her head hard twice, filled with regret.
What happened, why did she break down all of a sudden.
And to have said those things in front of Lu Hualiang, she also didn’t know what he would think.
She looked around the room and didn’t see him anywhere.
The blanket beside her was neat and tidy as if no one had slept there.
Feeling sowhat powerless, she dropped her shoulders and sat for a few minutes.
Then she got up to wash up.
When she ca downstairs, so servants were cleaning, but she still didn’t see Lu Hualiang.
Just as she saw Housekeeper Fu instructing soone to change the potted plants, Xia Weibao walked over.
“Housekeeper Fu, where is Director Lu?”
“Sir is over in the garden.”
“Oh.”
Taking his word for it, Xia Weibao stepped out in her slippers.
When she arrived at the back garden, she saw Lu Hualiang sitting under a grape trellis reading a book.
He was wearing a set of beige casual clothes today, holding a book in his hand, with sunlight streaming through the gaps of the grape trellis.
Spots of light fell on him in a dappled pattern.
The perfect profile of his face seed like nature’s proudest work.
Lacking his usual sharpness, he was as quiet as the boy next door at this mont.
It was like being in a different world.
The sunlight was so handso it set her heart racing.
Thump, thump, Xia Weibao’s heartbeat accelerated by two beats.
Her sense of guilt grew even stronger.
Despite not liking him, knowing she belonged to Emperor Xia Liang, but her heart still raced for his face.
She knew it was wrong.
It was not only a betrayal of the Dog Emperor but also a disrespect to Lu Hualiang.
Yet, she couldn’t control her own heart.
Feeling her gaze, Lu Hualiang looked up and smiled at her.
That smile, facing the sunlight, made Xia Weibao’s heart stop for an instant.
It was like an electric current passing through.
It was very warm.
She never knew that Lu Hualiang could have such a sunny and warm smile.
He extended his hand to her and said, “Co here.”
Xia Weibao walked over hesitantly, at a loss of what to do.
Last night’s incident was like a thorn that lay between them.
She knew he must be hurt, but she didn’t know how to explain.
Because she couldn’t explain.
She was the Empress of Emperor Xia Liang, and that was an unchangeable fact.
Therefore, she couldn’t return his feelings.
Lu Hualiang extended his elegant and noble hand, took her fair and delicate hand, gave a gentle pull, and she was sitting in his embrace.
The book was put aside, he wrapped his arms around her waist, and gently kissed her face.
His tone was tender, “Have you had breakfast?”
Xia Weibao shook her head, obedient like a child who had done sothing wrong.
“I’ll eat with you.”
Xia Weibao’s eyes flickered, “Director Lu, about last night, I…”
She had barely spoken when Lu Hualiang suddenly kissed her, stopping her words.
Their lips touched without any further movent.
A mont later, he released her, their noses rubbing gently against each other, indescribably affectionate.
“As long as you stay by my side, I can endure.”
