Chapter 5 Single by Strength!

Editor: Atlas Studios

Alright, this room was his, the bed too, and if he wanted to sleep, he would sleep.

But there was one thing she couldn't understand, was this man truly Emperor Xia Liang?

If so, then why was he so cold to her?

If not, then why marry her, a woman with such a notorious reputation?

Marrying her only to sign a divorce agreement?

Her Majesty the Empress wasn't one to trouble herself, so since she couldn't figure it out, she decided not to think about it anymore.

She flipped the blanket aside and went to sleep.

Speaking of which, these modern mattresses really were nice, soft and warm, much more comfortable than sleeping on a dragon bed.

She turned her back to Lu Hualiang, her body edging as far from him as possible towards the side of the bed, away from the man behind her.

If they were going to depose the Empress, might as well do it thoroughly.

Watching her actions, which seemed to avoid suspicion, Lu Hualiang's eyes deepened, followed by a derisive snort, Acting!

He was a light sleeper, and hadn't been asleep for long when he felt a pair of soft, boneless hands stealthily climbing onto his chest.

His eyes flicked open, dark as obsidian, sharp as an eagle's.

When he saw it was Xia Weibao constantly squirming into his embrace, Lu Hualiang's scalp tingled!

He had a severe case of mysophobia, hating others touching his body, especially women with such foul names!

With one hand, he pried Xia Weibao's arm off him, then lifted his leg and, with a sharp thud, kicked her off the bed!

Admirable, admirable!

Director Lu truly was a hero (good dog) living single by his own strengths!

This dashing kick made it seem like the road to coax his wife in the future would also be quite stylish!

Thud, a heavy object hit the floor.

"Ow~"

Waking from her deep sleep, Xia Weibao got up clutching her lower back, furious.

Rebellion!

Who dared to kick Her Majesty the Empress out of bed, their whole families must be tired of living!

Just as she was about to confront the offender angrily, she came face to face with Lu Hualiang's cold gaze.

Xia Weibao, "..."

"Do it again, and I'll break your hand!" Lu Hualiang gritted his teeth.

This woman, truly playing hard to get and revealing her true nature as soon as night fell!

Her Majesty the Empress claimed she was wronged, what had she done?

Just sleeping obediently, how did she provoke him?

Forget it, a wise woman does not fight with a despot!

After all, this man could execute her entire clan.

Just as she was about to climb back into bed, Lu Hualiang's piercing gaze frightened her.

"Go sleep on the couch!"

"I don't..."

Xia Weibao held back anger, itching to snap back.

But meeting Lu Hualiang's sharp, knife-like gaze, she felt the cow inside her cower.

Once again, those eyes confirmed that he was not someone she could afford to provoke.

She could only take a pillow and head to the couch.

As she turned around, tears of grievance trickled down inside her.

Dog Emperor, not even leaving me in peace after death!

When she woke up the next day, Lu Hualiang had already left.

She heard he would be away on a business trip for a few days, and Xia Weibao cheered!

Sitting on the couch, she opened her laptop and logged into her Weibo again.

For someone from ancient times, everything about this world was fascinating.

The status update she had posted before sleeping last night had gone viral, and she had also been viciously attacked.

——Dammit! Bitch Xia actually has the face to post on Weibo!

——Heheh, am I the only one who sensed the provocation in that sentence? Back then we worked together to drive her out of the entertainment industry, and now the first thing she says upon being discharged is "I'm back"

——You're not alone upstairs.

——It seems that this time Xia Ji has found herself a patron with quite the background, so arrogant [despise]

Xia Weibao read the increasingly nasty comments with relish.

Heheh, she really did find herself a big backer!
