Chapter 200: Chapter 200: Hang in there, Your Highness; don’t lose your dignity! Chapter 200: Chapter 200: Hang in there, Your Highness; don’t lose your dignity! Xia Weibao, “…”
He must want to infuriate her to death so he could inherit her snacks!
Thinking of snacks, Her Majesty the Empress felt even cooler inside.
She wondered if those two big bags of local products had been eaten yet.
Watching Lu Hualiang enter the master bedroom with eagerness, Xia Weibao couldn’t help but follow.
Lu Hualiang, who had just reached the door, couldn’t help but lift the corners of his mouth almost imperceptibly upon hearing her call.
Xia Weibao scratched her head, “It’s only eleven o’clock…”
“Let’s play another round of the game.”
She grinned, all eagerness to please.
She was just one game away from a triple crown, the excitement was too much to bear—how could she give up now!
Seeing her sparkling expression, Lu Hualiang really wanted to laugh, but he held it back.
“Playing another round is not impossible…”
Xia Weibao immediately beamed with joy, but the next second, she froze.
She saw Lu Hualiang speak leisurely, “Let’s do it tomorrow.”
Then he closed the door with a bang.
Once again barred outside the door, Xia Weibao, “…”
He must want to infuriate her to death so he could monopolize the snacks in the room!
Huffing back to her own room, who cares about not playing—she didn’t need it!
Her Majesty could win all by herself!
Upon logging into the game, she discovered that damn Hualiang was also online!!!
The blaze of fury inside Her Majesty the Empress burned fiercely. He said he was going to sleep, yet he sneakily came online!
And the game had already started!
She had just returned to her room, and he had already begun playing, what did this imply?
It meant he wasn’t going to sleep at all—he just didn’t want to play with her!
With this in mind, Her Majesty the Empress was even more incensed.
With a burning rage, she stomped over to the master bedroom door and pounded on it forcefully.
“Lu Hualiang, open the door for me!”
To sneakily play a game without including her, it was maddening!
Inside the room, Lu Hualiang listened to the angry pounding on the door and the corner of his mouth slowly curved up in a smirk.
He took out a packet of her favorite snacks and opened it unhurriedly.
Xia Weibao pounded on the door for a good while with no one coming to open it, leaving her fuming.
Everything could be negotiated except for gaming and snacks—these were sacred!
So Her Majesty the Empress, driven to the edge of fury, lifted her leg and gave the door a mighty kick!
With a bang, it flew open.
Housekeeper Fu was just planning to go back to sleep when he heard the kicking upstairs, and his eyes twitched severely.
The young mistress was dismantling the house again—sigh, he would have to find someone to fix the door tomorrow.
Upstairs, right after Xia Weibao kicked the door open, she saw Lu Hualiang lying on the bed, leaning against two pillows.
He was playing the game comfortably, with an opened bag of snacks beside him.
And looking so content while eating.
Xia Weibao swallowed, sorely tempted to ask for some…
Then she snapped back to her senses, shaking her head. No way!
She needed to have some backbone!
She was there to settle accounts with someone, not to beg for food!
Thus, with a stern face, she furiously confronted Lu Hualiang.
“Didn’t you say you were tired and going to sleep?”
Lu Hualiang’s eyes brimmed with mirth, but his face remained calm, ignoring her rude behavior.
“Didn’t you see that I’m already lying in bed?”
“But you are clearly still playing the game.”
“Who says you can’t play a game before sleeping? I merely said I was too tired to sit, not that I didn’t want to lie down.”
He made such a good point, she was left speechless.
Her gaze lingered upon the tempting-looking cake beside him, “What are you eating?”
The smile deepened in Lu Hualiang’s eyes, “Some local specialty a friend brought back.”
Xia Weibao swallowed hard, then waited for him to continue.
Normally, in such a situation, one would politely ask, Do you want some?
Just as long as he asked, she would immediately say she did.
