Chapter 365: The Bed... Collapsed
"What?!!!"
The sudden news sent Her Majesty the Empress into a rage!
She had thought that in a few months she would be divorced, free from this man, but now she was told that the divorce agreement had been torn up!
Facing her fury, Lu Hualiang spoke slowly.
"There was only one copy of the divorce agreement, and now it’s gone. You can forget about getting a divorce!"
"Shameless!"
Xia Weibao didn’t care about being discovered and immediately started fighting with him in the barracks.
She leapt up and then, raising her foot, she ruthlessly stomped on the man lying on the bed!
Bang—
A loud crash ensued, and the bed...collapsed.
Her Majesty the Empress had stomped the bed to pieces...
Both tumbled off the bed, and even Zhuang Xuejun, who was sleeping beneath, rolled out.
The loud noise from the barracks alerted all the patrolling guards outside.
"What was that noise!"
"Over there, hurry!"
Hurried footsteps approached chaotically, and Xia Weibao’s face turned pale.
"Hurry up and go!"
She hissed in a low angry whisper, then quickly pulled out a silver needle and pierced the acupoints of Zhuang Xuejun, Yin Guo, and Qiao Li.
The three, drugged by the knockout drug, slowly came to and looked at all the soldiers rushing in, bewildered.
What’s going on?
Xia Weibao glanced at the still-swaying curtain and sighed with relief.
She had nearly been caught.
She withdrew her gaze, pretending to be just as startled and confused as the others when awakened, and stood with them.
Pleading ignorance.
The final conclusion was that someone had broken into the barracks and accidentally collapsed Xia Weibao’s bed.
Fortunately, no one was hurt.
"All right, go back to rest. I have to report back to the commander," said the deputy camp commander reassuringly, worried the five girls would be scared, so he ordered someone to stand guard outside.
This incident happening in the military camp was his negligence.
Lu Hualiang returned to Lu Garden with a grim expression.
Having a wife who was too violent wasn’t good either.
If a single kick could collapse a bed, what if she accidentally kicked where she shouldn’t in the future? He’d have to become a monk for the rest of his life?
This behavior had to be corrected.
He felt some regret in his heart, wishing he had just kept quiet about the divorce agreement being torn up.
Otherwise, he might have gained some more benefits or, with a little more provocation, might have settled the whole matter.
He would have to be more careful next time.
Lying on the bed, he stared absently at the other side.
The owner of that place could only be her!
But the man in her heart was not him.
Just thinking about her and Fang Lilin being in the same military camp, possibly together at any time, made him want to kill!
He dialed Yang Li, "Find a way to help Du Yin escape across the border tomorrow, and also leak word to Fang Lilin."
Dream on if he thinks he can stay in the military camp to hit on his wife!
Woken up at three in the morning, Yang Li was so angry he wanted to smash his phone!
Having such a sly and taciturn boss really drove him to despair.
What else could he do but keep enduring?
After hanging up, Lu Hualiang took out a photo.
He had just found it on Xia Weibao.
At the time, he had found it strange why she was carrying a photo so close to her body, so he took it.
When he saw the person in it, his pupils shrunk sharply.
Is this...a picture of him and her together?
Only, he had no memory of taking a photo with her, and they were dressed very oddly.
She was in ancient attire, while he was in a Dragon Robe.
Lu Hualiang narrowed his eyes slightly; had she Photoshopped this picture? Why would she create such an image?
Could it be...the man in her heart was actually him?
This thought, once it emerged, immediately thrilled Lu Hualiang to the core!
He stared at the photo for a few seconds, then suddenly found it somewhat familiar...
