"Xiao Wu, Xiao Liu, I don't want to see them."
Shi Jue gestured at his bodyguards to make the reporters go away.
"Xiao Yi, find out which media outlet they belong to. I don't want to hear the name of their company again starting tomorrow."
"Xiao Er, I want you to access the website the created the rumors about Xia Weiyang."
"Xiao Qi, tell Mo Yi that I want the Xia family to suffer the same fate as the Lu family."
Shi Jue spoke rapidly as he barked out orders to his bodyguards.
Now that he had found the person he had been looking for, he could focus his attention on getting revenge.
Xia Weiyang was confused by the noises around her. "What's wrong?"
"Nothing. You must rest now." Shi Jue lowered his head and glanced at Xia Weiyang. His tone was gentle when he spoke to her.
The sudden change in Shi Jue's voice shocked his bodyguards. Although they didn't say anything, their confused glances betrayed them.
They realized at that moment that Shi Jue knew how to be gentle. It seemed he only showed his gentle side to those he truly cared about.
Shi Jue did not say anything, and Xia Weiyang did not ask. She only remembered it in her heart. She felt that the noises she heard had something to do with her.
Shi Jue tightly held onto Xia Weiyang as they walked out of the hotel. In front of them was Shi Jue's squad of bodyguards. They prevented the reporters from getting close to Shi Jue and Xia Weiyang.
They arrived at the hospital.
"Young master Shi Jue, Xia Weiyang is fine. There are only a couple of minor bruises on her body. She will be fine after applying some medicinal cream on her bruises. Although her body is weak right now, she will soon regain her strength. Just make sure that she gets a lot of rest and eats healthy food. The child is also very healthy. There is no need for tonic medicine at all."
A middle-aged male doctor gave Xia Weiyang a full check-up to make sure that she was fine.
Shi Jue nodded at the doctor before entering the ward. He then saw Xia Weiyang sleeping soundly on the bed.
He slowly walked to the side of the bed, lifted the blanket, and carefully turned Xia Weiyang over. He gently lifted her clothes to inspect the bruises on her body. The sight of the bruises, which were colored black and blue, shocked Shi Jue.
He then immediately took the medicine prepared by the doctor. He poured some of it on a cotton ball and wiped it on the bruises on Xia Weiyang's body.
Although Xia Weiyang was sleeping, she let out a low moan due to the pain caused by the bruises.
Her moans startled Shi Jue. However, he still continued applying medicine to Xia Weiyang's body.
Shi Jue then cleaned the medicine off his hands and placed a chair beside Xia Weiyang's bed. As he sat down, he stared at her face.
At that moment, Shi Jue saw how beautiful Xia Weiyang was.
Xia Weiyang had delicate features and fair skin. Aside from these, she also had a nice figure.
Shi Jue reached out and gently touched Xia Weiyang's face.
"It seems I have fallen in love with you," Shi Jue said lightly.
"But..." Shi Jue withdrew his hand. He wanted to say something, but he stopped himself. He returned to his usual cold and cheerless self.
Shi Jue sat for a long time before he got up and left.
The moment the ward door closed, the person who was supposed to be sound asleep opened her eyes.
Xia Weiyang looked at the tightly shut door and pursed her lips. "I had no idea he felt that way about me."
After saying that, Xia Weiyang closed her eyes and fell asleep.
She slept very well and peacefully.
Xia Weiyang was then woken up by voices she heard inside the ward. But, instead of opening her eyes, she pretended that she was still asleep.
"Hey, look at her. She's quite pretty," a woman whispered.
"Of course she is. If she's not pretty, how can she charm young master Shi Jue?" Another woman said.
"Are you saying that the viral stories are true? I'm a little suspicious," the other woman replied.
