The velvet box was evidently taken by Shi Yaoguang of her own accord, albeit...
He didn't feel it at all, nor did he notice when the box vanished.
He also had no idea how Shi Yaoguang managed to get it.
Despite being surprised by Shi Yaoguang's methods, his face showed little change. "This was a gift I had prepared for you, bound to end up in your hands eventually; you getting it early is just fine," he said.
Yet Shi Yaoguang deliberately made things difficult for him. "How could that be okay?"
"Since it's a gift, you should have personally given it to me," she said, flipping her hand, and the velvet box disappeared as if into thin air, "If I got this, then it's mine."
"So—"
She drew out her tone, "You'll still need to prepare another welcome gift for me."
The man hadn't expected Shi Yaoguang's reaction, and immediately chuckled, "Interesting."
