<h4>Chapter 1534:</h4>


    <h4>Another Ace Up Her Sleeves</h4>


    It was almost a year after what had happened with Little Apple.


    Huo Yunshen knew that Jing Xi had only buried that sadness and did not forget about it.


    But as long as it remained buried, Jing Xi would still be able to live happily.


    The word “apple” had be a taboo in their family.


    They would never eat apples nor did they have any art rted to apples. Huo Yunshen every threw away all his Apple products.


    ...


    As time flew, Christmas Eve arrived.


    Huo Yunshen and Jing Xi were getting prepared for their n.


    The kids had already fallen asleep when they got home.


    After the shower, Huo Yunshen kneeled in front of his wife and was giving her a leg massage.


    “Hubby, I’m nning to let my mother perform tomorrow,” Jing Xi said.


    “Why’s that?” Huo Yunshen asked.


    Their original n was to let Jing Xi pretend to be Jing Ruyue.


    “I’m trying to fulfill her dream. I bet my dad wants to see mom on stage again,” Jing Xi said. “I will go on in her ce only if she’s not feeling well.”


    “I see...” Huo Yunshen paused and nodded. “All right, we’ll do that then.”


    Since it was Jing Ruyue’seback performance, there was nothing better than letting the real thing perform on stage.


    “I’m a little worried she might note tomorrow.” Jing Xi expressed her worries while sping her hands.


    She was worried that Lady White Tea might not get baited, even after they had been nning for so long.


    “Don’t worry. I’m sure that she will be frustrated when she sees the advertisement.”


    “I hope so.”


    “It’s almost time to sleep,” Huo Yunshen said as his hands moved further upwards.


    “Yes. It’s going to be a battle tomorrow.”


    Jing Xiy down on the bed and was followed by Huo Yunshen.


    “Shouldn’t we encourage each other before the battle then?”


    “What? I thought you said it was time to sleep.”


    “Yes, I meant the other sleep.”


    “But that’s not what I meant!”


    “What? You don’t love me anymore?”


    “Of course I do!”


    “Me too.”


    As the night fell, the couple “slept” through a beautiful night.


    ...


    Jing Xi had recorded a massive advertisement as Jing Ruyue, and it was being broadcasted all around Estan.


    A woman was staring at the screen as she was doing her best to hold back her anger.


    The screen was showing an advertisement on a beauty product.


    A beautiful woman stood at the beach as the wind softly breezed past her.


    “Real beauty is that which can withstand time,” a beautiful voice said,ing from the advertisement, “and real love is one that can ovee time.”


    Jing Ruyue slowly turned around to face the camera and continued, “And one with love and beauty is the true winner of all.”


    Thest four words made the woman looking at the screen erupted in anger.


    She tore the papers in her hand and threw them into the air.


    The woman swore that she would not let Jing Ruyue have a happy ending.


    She still had an ace up her sleeve.
