Plagued by bad reviews, but the top actress!-Chapter 796: Honey~

Seeing her take the medication last night felt odd to me, so I took a pill for analysis.

I wanted to see what it was made of, but to my surprise, it turned out to be birth control.

Hah!

Lu Hualiang suddenly found it somewhat ironic. His wife, his rightfully wedded wife, was actually taking emergency contraception after they had been intimate!

Did she really not want to have his children, or was she still waiting for the one in her heart?

Even though she had given her body to him, she still hadn’t considered creating a complete family with him.

Lu Hualiang leaned back in his chair, sinking into the soft leather, as a gloomy air seemed to encase him.

Then what did her readiness to help with anything lately mean?

Could it be that, when she was in bed with him, she was actually thinking of another man!

He closed his eyes, shutting out all the hostility within.

He wanted to rush over and ask her clearly, but he couldn’t.

Fearing that he would hurt her in a moment of impulsive anger.

The loss of control from their wedding night was vivid in his mind; if she were to appear in front of him now, he didn’t know what crazy thing he might do.

At eight o’clock in the evening, Xia Weibao checked the time for the fifth time, and Lu Hualiang still hadn’t returned home.

She frowned. Since their marriage, he had rarely worked overtime, especially after their wedding night; he almost always couldn’t wait to get home early. Why was it so late today, with not even a phone call?

She made a call to him, but no one answered.

Xia Weibao became even more puzzled. "What’s going on?"

She called again, and it was hung up.

Xia Weibao, "..."

After some thought, she sent a message, "Husband, why aren’t you home yet?"

The office was dark and oppressive, with just a tiny red light flickering dimly.

Lu Hualiang had been sitting from noon until night; it was dark, and he hadn’t turned on the light.

Darkness can cover all sins and also calm a person’s heart gradually.

He didn’t know how many cigarettes he had smoked; the ashtray on his desk was already full of butts.

The phone screen lit up again, displaying a message from Xia Weibao.

He glanced at it, and under the harsh light of the screen, the man’s face looked forebodingly grim.

The ominous chill made the early winter night as cold as the Antarctic glacier.

Home?

Ha, so she still has a concept of home in her heart.

How ironic.

If she truly considered Lu Garden their home, why wouldn’t she want to have his child?

He didn’t move, just took another drag of his cigarette. The smoke irritated his insides, making him somewhat uncomfortable, but it also seemed to share some of the pain at the location of his heart,

Half an hour later, another call from Xia Weibao came in, which he didn’t answer.

The light of the screen came on and off, flickering repeatedly.

By ten o’clock at night, she sent another message.

"Husband, where are you? Answer my call."

"Husband, husband, are you still working? When will you come back?"

"Husband, aren’t you done with work yet? I’m getting sleepy~"

Seeing the last message, which sounded like coquetry, his heart involuntarily tightened.

Damn it, even when she was so heartless, he still felt pained for her.

Thinking of her, sitting alone in the room, forcing herself to stay awake waiting for him, his heart ached dully.

Xia Weibao, what exactly do you want!

My pride, dignity, principles, even my life, I’ve given you everything; how much longer will you torment me?

Ultimately, he couldn’t hold back and replied to her message.

"I have to work late; you go to sleep first."

When she finally saw his response, Xia Weibao felt a surge of elation.

Then she scowled, her brows knitting tightly together.
