Chapter 224: Chapter 224: The game is precious, but integrity is worth even more, Your Highness

A bright yet blurry face, looking at him with a mischievously narrowed gaze…

Lu Hualiang’s heart suddenly throbbed, then fiercely tightened.

Just as he tried to make out the face, the vision disappeared.

However, the feeling of heartache was exceptionally clear.

With slightly furrowed brows, whose face had he just thought of?

He absentmindedly replayed Xia Weibao’s song, but that feeling did not re-emerge.

As the end of work approached, Lu Hualiang, with a stoic face, downloaded the online music video onto his phone.

His expression grew colder, a surge of emotions churning in his chest. He saw the astonishing number of downloads and a bunch of comments coveting his wife’s beauty below.

Suddenly, he felt like hacking Allure’s drama crew’s official Weibo…

When Xia Weibao arrived home, Lu Hualiang was already there.

He was sitting on the living room sofa with his phone.

The moment she stepped through the door, Xia Weibao had an odd illusion that this man was waiting for her to come back…

Damn it, he just slammed the door on her yesterday, how could he possibly be waiting for her.

She really wanted to ignore the man and go upstairs, but then she remembered what Yang Li had said.

It was Lu Hualiang who had helped her, and he had gone to great lengths to dig up the dirt on Qian Guoan and Lin Siqian, leaving Xia Weibao somewhat overwhelmed.

She hated owing favors the most!

Especially favors that were utterly unnecessary.

So, she had no choice but to brace herself and walk over, sitting down on the sofa opposite Lu Hualiang.

From beginning to end, Lu Hualiang did not look at her directly, instead, he was engrossed in his phone.

The atmosphere was a bit awkward. Xia Weibao chuckled nervously, “Director Lu, what are you up to?”

“Playing games.”

Xia Weibao’s eyes immediately lit up. She had been too busy preparing for the singing competition these past few days to play any games!

So she eagerly moved closer.

“Holy shit! Another penta kill!”

No sooner had the words left her mouth than Her Majesty the Empress immediately covered it, darn!

She cursed again, so damaging to her image.

She wondered if it was because she’d been getting too heated in trash-talking while gaming recently that her image had become increasingly tomboyish, with curses coming readily to her lips.

This was bad, she needed to change.

She was obviously a cute girl, how could she be so crude!

Thus, Xia Weibao said cheerily, “Director Lu, you didn’t hear anything just now.”

“Didn’t hear what?” Lu Hualiang did not even look up.

“You didn’t hear me say ‘holy shit.’

Lu Hualiang, “…”

Xia Weibao twisted her body a bit and awkwardly scratched the back of her neck, “Um, about the thing with Lin Siqian… thank you.”

The corners of Lu Hualiang’s mouth curved ever so slightly, “It was nothing, don’t worry about it.”

He said not to worry about it, but his expression seemed to suggest, I’ve helped you, remember this favor, and be obedient in the future.

Her Majesty the Empress was close to exploding with frustration, what a suffocating situation!

A matter she could have resolved by herself had its credit completely hijacked by someone else, and yet she still had to thank them with a smiling face.

So infuriating, but still, she maintained a smile.

“Want to play?” Lu Hualiang’s smile turned into a charming arc, clearly in a good mood.

“Sure!”

The Empress cast aside all her frustrations at the prospect of someone to play games with.

Blurted out in excitement, she felt she might have seemed too eager.

Clearing her throat, she feigned indifference, “As it happens, I have some time, let’s play a couple of rounds.”

Lu Hualiang’s mouth twitched slightly. This woman, all principles abandoned at the mention of games.

How adorable.

He really wanted to hold her in his arms and give her a squeeze.
