"It's nothing important," Shi Jue replied indifferently. He glanced at Xia Weiyang's light purple dress and nodded in satisfaction.
"Alright, it's getting late. My mother is probably waiting for us," Shi Jue said as he took the clothes from Xia Weiyang and tossed a card to the female shop assistant beside him.
The assistant nervously swiped the card and prayed in her heart that they would leave quickly and forget what she did that night.
However, Shi Jue was not done with them yet.
After getting his card, Shi Jue glanced at the two employees of the shop.
"Do you want to leave on your own, or do you prefer getting forced to leave?"
Shi Jue normally did not bother himself with minor issues. However, he was in a very bad mood that day.
"We'll leave on our own. We won't trouble you anymore."
At first, the shop manager was shocked by what Shi Jue said. After coming to her senses, she and her assistant started preparing to leave the shop.
She knew very well that if she went up against an influential person, she would end up in a miserable state.
Feeling satisfied with the employees' response, Shi Jue withdrew his soul-absorbing gaze. He then turned his attention to Lu Ziyin. "What about you?"
Lu Ziyin clenched his fists so hard that the veins on his hands started to bulge out. He looked at Shi Jue maliciously.
"Young master Shi Jue, let me give you a piece of advice. Don't be too arrogant. In this world, no one has always been high and mighty. Be careful. The higher you stand, the harder you fall."
After saying this, Lu Ziyin dragged Xia Ningyan out of the shop. She felt slightly embarrassed to leave in such a manner.
Shi Jue proudly raised his head after hearing Lu Ziyin's message. A hint of viciousness flashed across his sharp eyes.
Shi Jue and Xia Weiyang walked towards the parking lot after exiting the shop.
Upon reaching the car, Shi Jue released Xia Weiyang's hand. His expression was cold and utterly devoid of the gentleness he previously had when they were inside the shop.
"Get in the car," Shi Jue said coldly.
Instead of waiting for Xia Weiyang to board the car, Shi Jue opened the door on his side and entered first.
As they drove away, Shi Jue remained silent and kept a cold expression on his face.
The atmosphere was very depressing, but Xia Weiyang did not care. She thought that Shi Jue was in a bad mood because of Lu Ziyin's last words. She clenched her hands and suddenly realized that the black card that Shi Jue had given her was still in her hand.
"Here's your card back," Xia Weiyang said as she handed to card over to Shi Jue.
"I can still afford to take care of a woman." Shi Jue's tone was cold. "Don't worry. I won't mistreat you. However, make sure that you remember your duty while you're still pregnant."
Shi Jue's words made Xia Weiyang's face darken.
It seemed he didn't know how to talk to Xia Weiyang properly.
They simply could not get along with each other.
If she had to be with a highly temperamental man who would throw tantrums every time they're together, she certainly would not live long.
After reaching Shi Jue's mansion, Xia Weiyang quietly went insider her room.
Shi Jue coldly stared at her as she walked away from him.
Pack!
A powerful punch landed on the wall.
The sound of Shi Jue's fist hitting the wall echoed throughout the house. The servants who heard it were scared out of their wits.
After returning to her room, Xia Weiyang went inside the bathroom to take a shower. As the warm water touched her skin, a frown formed on her face.
She had forgotten about the injury on her back due to the incident at the shop.
Xia Weiyang turned off the shower and stood in front of a huge mirror in the bathroom. She positioned her body so she could see the wound on her back.
Actually, it wasn't really a wound. There was only a bruise on the side of her waist. There was also a slight abrasion on the center of her back.
Xia Weiyang didn't care. This kind of abrasion would heal in a few days. She wrapped herself in a towel and walked out of the bathroom.
After drying her body, Xia Weiyang stood by the bed and unwrapped the towel. She wanted to change into her pajamas.
Suddenly, the door of her room opened.
Shi Jue walked in with an imposing aura.
