Chapter 891: A Promise from the Past Life, Fulfilled in This Life
The Dog Emperor also promised her that when the Crown Prince grew up, he would abdicate and take her to roam the Jianghu.
Unfortunately, he didn’t have the chance to fulfill his promise before he was gone.
What he left her was a cup of poisoned wine.
"What are you thinking about?"
Seeing her suddenly quiet down, Lu Hualiang was puzzled.
Xia Weibao looked up, hiding the pain in her eyes.
There’s nothing to be sad about; although she died in the past life, they still have this life.
The promises unfulfilled in the past life can be completed in this one.
She flashed him a bright smile, "I want to go to the grasslands."
Looking at her smiling face, Lu Hualiang felt a bit dazed.
A bell-like voice seemed to echo in his ears, ’Your Majesty, I want to see the grasslands.’
His heart inexplicably tightened with pain.
"Husband, husband?"
Xia Weibao’s voice brought his thoughts back.
"What?"
Lu Hualiang seemed a bit confused, with a tightness in his chest, yet he couldn’t remember anything.
Why did he have this feeling?
It seemed as if he owed someone a promise.
"What are you thinking, are you going to regret again? You just said you’d take me to the grasslands."
"Okay, I’ll take you."
’Okay, I will take you, Empress. When the Crown Prince grows up, I will take you to see the grasslands, the desert, accompany you through the magnificent mountains and rivers, accompany you to roam the Jianghu.’
In his mind, words echoed like ancient relics, followed by endless heartache.
Lu Hualiang pressed a hand to his chest, his brows knitting together tightly.
When he thought about it closely, that voice disappeared again.
However, the pain in his chest intensified.
It seemed like he had forgotten something very important.
It seemed to be a person, a woman to whom he once made a promise.
This thought emerging made Lu Hualiang’s face change.
Impossible!
His memory was complete; he remembered everything from his childhood until now. His brain hadn’t suffered any major trauma, nor had he been seriously ill, so it was impossible that he had forgotten something.
Besides, he was a married man, he loved Xia Weibao, he loved her very much.
There was no doubt about that!
Apart from her, he never made any promises to any other woman!
"When are we going?"
Xia Weibao asked enthusiastically, seeing him spacing out again, and she was a bit displeased.
She waved her hand in front of him, "Return to your senses."
Lu Hualiang came back to reality, looking at her a bit out of sorts, "I won’t betray you."
Xia Weibao frowned. She was just asking when he would take her to the grasslands.
What was he talking about?
Her face suddenly changed, "What did you just say? Not betray me? Oh, Lu Hualiang, did you do something behind my back that wronged me? Spill it!"
There must be a reason for suddenly talking about not betraying her!
She clawed at his ear, "Confess and be lenient!"
Lu Hualiang returned to his senses, cursing himself for drifting off, "Nothing."
"There must be something!"
"With a wife as beautiful as mine, do you think I would betray you?"
"Hmph!" Xia Weibao snorted coldly, letting go of his ear, her face carrying a warning, "If you’ve entangled with me, don’t think of anyone else, if you dare find another woman, I’ll kill each one I find!"
No one is allowed to touch her man!
As someone from ancient times, she didn’t have such strong legal awareness.
Maybe killing seemed terrifying to others, but to her, it was just a matter of moving her hand.
It wasn’t as if she hadn’t killed anyone before.
Although her body was modern, her subjective consciousness was still her own.
One could say that apart from receiving this body, she hadn’t absorbed much information from the original owner, otherwise, she wouldn’t have needed a moment to realize that Durex was a condom.
